Chapter 62: Weird
Uncle Li is also a shrewd person, and when the peaches were ripe, he picked 300 catties and sent them to the commune's supply and marketing cooperative. One-third of these peaches are not good-looking, one-third are insects or pecked by birds, and one-third are relatively good.
The director of the commune's supply and marketing cooperatives saw that the peaches had an ugly face and asked them to pick out the bad fruits, otherwise they would not accept them. Uncle Ren Li did not let go of all the good words, and also said that many peaches in other places this year must be reduced in price. It used to be one cent and five pounds, but now it has dropped to one cent.
Li Sankui was short-tempered, and after kicking down a basket of peaches, he shouted: "Dad, don't sell it, let's take it away and don't sell him." ”
Feige paid six cents for a pound to buy, and this bastard has to drop to one point without raising the price, which is really too black-hearted.
Uncle Li slapped him on the back of the head and scolded angrily: "Who made you spoil things? Hurry up and pick up all the peaches for me. ”
When the director saw that his tail was cocked, he still said cool words in his mouth: "Brother Li, your son has to teach him well when he goes back." If I don't know how to lift up, I will be magnanimous, and I will never be spared if I change someone. ”
At this time, Li Dakui also lost his temper, and stood up and said: "Dad, according to his calculations, we can only sell more than 300 catties of peaches for one or two yuan." I'd rather give this peach away, at least I can get a favor by giving it away. ”
After speaking, he picked up the basket and left, and Li Sankui saw it and followed closely.
Uncle Li couldn't stop shouting a few times, and said helplessly to the director of the supply and marketing cooperative: "Director, I'm sorry, my son can't help it." My peaches don't grow well this year, so I won't sell them. ”
One point and five is already very low, but I didn't expect to lower the price. According to his temper when he was young, it is estimated that he has been beaten by fire, but now that he is a grandfather, his temper has also been restrained.
The supply and marketing cooperatives looked at it but began to be anxious, and hurriedly stopped Uncle Li and said: "Brother, brother, don't go, let's talk about it if you have something." You peach, I want the good one, and the price is still one and a half of last year. ”
Uncle Li shook his head and said, "Forget it, there are many insects and birds in the mountains today, and there are few good peaches." It's not easy to pick it up from the mountains, and if you can't get it for a few dollars, you won't sell it, so you should rest for a year! ”
"Brother, brother, don't ...... like this"
Uncle Li was still willing to listen to her, and strode away. In the place where you enter the mountain, pick out the good ones and hide them, and most of them are not good or are pecked by insects and birds to Li Guihua, and the rest are sent to the eldest sister Li Chunhua's house.
Li Guihua looked at the two big baskets of peaches, and said very distressedly: "Brother, so many peaches can always be exchanged for a few dollars when they are bought in the supply and marketing cooperative." ”
Uncle Li snorted coldly and said, "I'd rather give it to the dog than sell him." Bastard, charge us a penny, and he will sell the county by-commodity store for three or five points. Earning the hard-earned money of those of us who are poor will be retributed one day. ”
This person must have hacked more than just their family, but I don't know how many victims there are.
Li Guihua sighed when she heard this, and said: "That surnamed Liu really likes to lower prices, but there are people above him who can't help him." Big brother, if you don't sell the supply and marketing cooperatives of the commune, we can sell them to the acquisition station in the county seat. ”
Uncle Li waved his hand and said, "Forget it, this year's peaches don't grow well and can't be sold at a high price, and they can't be sold for a few dollars after hard work." I'll leave this peach for you to eat, and I'll go back. ”
No matter how Li Guihua kept it, it was useless, so he could only send him out.
Peaches are also not easy to preserve, and Li Guihua picks out the best of them and sells them. She also doesn't need money, she can exchange food or other things that can be used, one pound of rice can be exchanged for three pounds of peaches, coarse grains can be exchanged for two pounds of peaches, and an egg can be exchanged for one peach.
At the end of the summer harvest, each family received some grain. Take out a pound and a half to exchange some snacks for children, adults are still happy, of course, the most important thing is that the price is not high.
Tian Shao was doing the question, and Aunt Wei shouted outside: "Big girl, big girl, your sister is here." ”
As soon as she went out, she saw Erya, who was a black color, and Tian Shao took a towel to wash her face.
Erya took out the things in the back basket, including eggs, vegetables and more than a dozen catties of peaches: "Sister, these peaches were sent by my uncle." Sister, my uncle's peaches are not growing well this year, and they can't be sold. ”
There are so many peaches that can't be sold for money and can only be given away, and she just thinks about it. The children of poor families are in charge of the family early, and Erya is also very thrifty like Li Guihua.
The peaches sent by Sankui before, Tian Shao ate one and gave the others to Gu Fei, and just thinking about it, he sent them.
Tian Shao deliberately said: "If you don't look good, then we can make preserved fruits!" But preserved fruits need a lot of sugar, and we can't get that much sugar. ”
Erya rolled her eyes, which was equivalent to not saying: "Eldest sister, you have to take the exam in four days." Daddy asked me to ask you, if you still lack anything here, just say, I'll send it tomorrow. ”
"No, I don't lack anything here."
After speaking, she gave everything to Aunt Wei and led Erya into the house. She went to the table and opened the bottom drawer, and took three canned meat and half a packet of sugar from it and put them in her back basket.
Erya had seen Tian Jianle's nephew eat canned meat, so she recognized it at a glance, and she asked nervously: "Sister, where did so many canned meat come from?" ”
When he spoke, his voice trembled.
Tian Shao saw that her little face turned white, and said speechlessly: "These are all sent by Tian Jianle and Sister Aihua, and they are all to be returned in the future." ”
Erya secretly breathed a sigh of relief, as long as the way was right. Wiping the beads of sweat from her forehead, she said with a smile: "Sister, I haven't eaten canned meat yet!" ”
When Tian Shao heard this, he took out a jar from it and put it in the back basket: "Go out and find a shady place to eat." It's not good to eat here and be seen by the Wei family, don't let Siya know, otherwise she will definitely make trouble with you if you eat alone. ”
After all, they are partners in the Wei family, and now that the food is so expensive, it is not good for her to let Erya stay to eat.
Erya walked on the front foot, and Wei Caixia came back on the back foot.
When she washed her face, Tian Shao saw that she was wearing a beautiful watch on her wrist and praised: "Sister Caixia, your watch is so beautiful, what brand is it?" ”
When she gets the money later, she will also buy a watch, I don't know if the time is too unaccustomed.
"Bang Bang ......"
Wei Caixia accidentally hit the enamel basin on the ground, and the water was spilled on the ground.
Aunt Wei came out of the kitchen when she heard the movement, and when she saw the enamel basin on the ground, she scolded with a face: "You dead girl, such a big person is still hairy, this pot is broken and you have to spend money to make up for it." ”
The two sons in the family have to prepare two bride prices in the future, and she, like Li Guihua, can't wait to break a penny in half to spend.
Wei Caixia steadied herself and said, "Mom, I'll pay attention to it in the future." ”
Tian Shao saw it very clearly, Wei Caixia heard her words and knocked over the enamel basin in a panic. Thinking that most of Wei Caixia's salary had to be handed over, she deliberately asked, "Caixia, what brand is your watch?" This watch is so beautiful, I'll buy one to wear when I have money in the future. ”
It's not a lie, it's inconvenient to not know the time without a watch, and you have to find a way to buy a watch after saving money.
Wei Caixia hated to sew Tian Shao's mouth shut.
