Tong Yao tilted her head and asked, "How much is a catty?" ”

The man was stunned and bought milk by the pound, did he meet a big customer?

After reacting, he said with a strong sense of excitement: "Three cents and a pound." ”

Three cents a catty, Tong Yao's eyes lit up, this price was much cheaper than she expected, she thought that a pound of milk would cost at least seven or eight cents, in this era, the milk production was low, and there were very few very large-scale dairy farms, which were vaguely expensive, just like an electric fan, the cost price was high and the price was high, but she didn't expect it to be only three cents and five pounds.

What Tong Yao doesn't know is that the yield of dairy cows is really low now, but there are not so many milk processing plants in modern times, all kinds of dairy products have not yet been born, and fresh milk has a very strong fishy smell, many people are not used to drinking it, and the countrymen are reluctant to drink it, so the market demand is small.

Seeing that Tong Yao didn't speak, the man thought that Tong Yao was too expensive, and he was in a hurry and didn't know how to keep customers because he was stupid, so he could only stand and wait for Tong Yao to make a decision, and finally gritted his teeth and took out a bottle of milk.

"Little girl, you can taste this milk first, it's all just squeezed out of the night."

"No, no, no." Tong Yao waved her hand again and again, took out five cents from her pocket and handed it to the man, "Uncle, I'll give you a deposit of five cents first, from Monday, you help send three catties of fresh milk to the gate of No. 1 Middle School every day, and if you need to send more, I'll inform you again." ”

"Okay." As soon as he heard her say that it was three catties a day, the man nodded excitedly, the hand that received the money trembled slightly, and his eyes were red, "Little girl, don't worry, I will definitely deliver it to you on time." ”

The cattle farm stipulates that a person must sell ten catties of milk every day, and the area he is responsible for is near the hospital, with few residents and little fresh milk, and he has not completed the task for more than ten days.

The wife was lying on the bed and couldn't move, she had to be served every day, her daughter and granddaughter were also beaten home by her son-in-law, and the old couple was occupied by her brother again, if they lost their jobs again, the family could only drink the northwest wind, and the appearance of Tong Yao made the man see hope for life again.

Tong Yao, who didn't know the reason, was a little strange, she ordered three catties of milk, and she was so excited that she was about to cry, she looked at the man carefully, and saw that the man moved his steps one high and one low, only to find that the man turned out to be a lame.

There was a sound of children babbling in the compound, Tong Yao looked sideways, it turned out to be Chen Yanmei who came out to get milk, Tong Yao didn't want to bump into her, so she raised her feet and hurried away.

"Old Niu, who was that girl just now?" Chen Yanmei walked to the bicycle with the child in her arms, only to see the back of Tong Yao leaving, thinking that the figure looked a little eye-catching, not quite like a person in the compound.

Lao Niu handed the milk to Chen Yanmei and replied casually, "The little girl who ordered the milk." "I was so excited just now that I forgot to ask my name.

Chen Yanmei took the milk and took a big sip of it in her mouth first, Bao Dan saw this and grabbed a handful directly on her face, snatched the milk back, this one was not merciless, and directly grabbed two nail marks on Chen Yanmei's face, Chen Yanmei was not angry, and did not forget to chat with the old cow.

"Where's the little girl?"

Thinking that Tong Yao didn't look very old, and asked him to send fresh milk to school, Lao Niu guessed: "A middle school student!" ”

I heard that it was a middle school student, Chen Yanmei didn't ask anymore, I heard that Tong Yao inquired about milk last night, and thought it was her, so I said, Tong Yao is a country girl, why shouldn't she have such a pretty figure.

……

The other side.

He Fang was waiting for Tong Yao at the door early in the morning, and when she saw her figure coming from a distance, she hurriedly took the child to greet her, and the two were still five or six meters apart, so she shouted happily: "Sister." ”

"Sister Fang, have you been waiting for a long time?" Tong Yao walked up to Niuniu and teased Niuniu, and then came to He Fang's door with He Fang, the vigilant Tong Yao did not enter the yard, stood at the door and asked, "Sister Fang, where is Niuniu's father?" ”

Speaking of his own man, He Fang's smile faded a little, "I came back last night, had dinner and left, and I haven't come back yet." ”

Looking at He Fang's appearance, it should be the norm for men not to come back, Tong Yao opened the topic, "Then did you tell him about renting a house?" ”

The house is the joint residence of the husband and wife, in case He Fang agrees with her and the man does not agree, it will be troublesome to make trouble again.

"I told him that my friend put something here, he has no opinion, Yaoyao, don't worry, he usually doesn't care." He Fang was worried that her husband was worried about the rent, so she kept an eye on it, and didn't talk about renting out the house, always going to her mother's house to fight the autumn breeze is not a long-term plan, she has to find a way to support herself and her daughter.

Tong Yao probably guessed something, didn't ask much, took out the prepared contract and handed it to her, "Sister Fang, there are ten contracts on it, see if there is a problem." ”

He Fang has only read books for three years, and she knows some simple words, others give her money and put things here, how can she not suffer a loss, she can rest assured that she will rent out the house if she does not sign these words, but since Tong Yao has proposed it, she still took a look at it, and each of the above articles is written very clearly, the salary and rent will be settled every month, and the price will not increase within a year, He Fang felt that it was no problem, so she took the pen from Tong Yao and signed, and Tong Yao gave the money to He Fang after collecting the paper.

I can't remember how long I haven't seen so much money, He Fang almost burst into tears, "Sister, when did you start putting things, I'll give you a door key, you can come over at any time." ”

"I haven't bought briquettes and stoves yet, it's going to be two days." Thinking that He Fang is a housewife should know about this, Tong Yao asked casually, "Sister Fang, do you know where to sell honeycomb coal?" ”

He Fang, "My family has hoarded some, if you don't mind, you can use my house first, I won't charge you more, just give it at the price when I bought it." ”

Tong Yao's eyes lit up, "Thank you so much." "It doesn't matter if you use He Fang's family, you have to buy it yourself.

Seeing that Tong Yao was a cheerful person, He Fang felt that she had a good character, and said kindly: "Sister, the honeycomb coal stove sold on the street is not easy to use and expensive, it is not as good as making it yourself, my dad will do it, if you are at ease, I will ask him to help you paste one, and you can make a tin money." ”

"Thank you so much for that." Tong Yao didn't expect this good thing, in order to let He Fang help more in the future, she was not stingy, "Sister Fang, how much is the stove sold in the market, I will give you how much money, do you think?" ”

He Fang hurriedly waved his hand, "Oops! It's a lot, and you don't need that much money. ”

The iron sheet is worthless, and a few more stoves can be made according to the market price, for fear that Tong Yao will know that she cheated money in the future, He Fang will not dare to charge more.

"Not much." Tong Yao smiled and said, "Uncle always has to pay the manual fee for helping to paste the stove." ”
