Chapter 190: Beef
"Yo, director, why did you come to this vegetable market to buy vegetables?"
Today is also in a hurry, Li Heng just walked to the door of the market, and met Zhao Mingxia coming out of it with something in his hand.
It's no wonder that people think it's strange, you live in Dongsi and go to the vegetable market here in Dongdan to buy vegetables, and whoever sees it will be surprised.
"Ugh...... Hey, I woke up early in the morning and had nothing to do, so I just happened to be here for a walk, so I thought I'd stop by here to buy some food."
The two of you eat three meals a day on the stove, and you still use it to buy groceries? Do you feed the dogs like me? Zhao Mingxia secretly slandered in her heart.
"Director Zhao, then you're busy, I'll go in first."
Li Heng didn't plan to say anything more to this middle-aged woman, so he said hello and turned his head to leave, but he was still stopped by others.
"Director, don't be too busy to leave."
"What? Anything else? You're not going to talk to me here, are you?"
It's not even six o'clock in the morning, and he is talking about business at the door of the vegetable market, and he really doesn't love his job so much.
I'm afraid this old lady hasn't been single for a long time, what's the disease, right?
"I'm not so idle, I'm dragging you to talk about business early in the morning." Hearing this, Zhao Mingxia threw it away with a roll of her eyes.
"Ugh...... What's that going on?"
"When I ate in the cafeteria last afternoon, Xiaoya didn't sit with me and chat."
Speaking of this, Li Heng scratched his head a little, one of these two people can be the mother of the other, but the two of them don't know what, they can still talk together, Fang Xiaoya has come to eat in the past two days and doesn't sit with him, every time she has to sit at a table with this Zhao Mingxia.
The two of them chatted while eating, and they were quite happy.
"Well, I know, what's wrong?"
"Xiaoya heard that my dog gave birth to a puppy, so I want to give you a hug."
!!!
"Dogs? Do you still have dogs?"
"Yes, I live alone, and I have a few dogs to give me courage."
"How many more?"
Li Heng was a little surprised when he heard this, it's good that people can eat enough these days, and they also have dogs, and they also raise a few, which is really rare.
"What kind of dog do you have?"
But he was also quite interested in hearing this.
In the last life, he also adopted a retired police dog, although later because of his working hours, he found a new owner for the dog, but they also lived together for several months, to say that he can also raise a dog in this life, he is absolutely willing.
"I don't know what kind of dog it is, anyway, it's quite big when it grows up, but it's really well-behaved and obedient, I just gave birth to a litter of four last month, and Xiaoya told me that she wanted one after hearing about it."
"Okay, then you can bring me one."
"That's settled, I'll bring you when I get to work."
"You'd better come over before you get off work in the afternoon, anyway, your house is not far from our unit, so I'll work hard for you to run more."
Raising a dog in the office during normal working hours, although it is temporary, but how wrong it is, Li Heng shook his head and rejected Zhao Mingxia's proposal, and asked her to hug it again in the afternoon.
"That's fine! It's not hard, but you can't give me an early departure, director!" ….
"Well, that's not going to happen."
"That's okay, since I said it's okay, I won't bother the director to buy vegetables, by the way, the butcher shop has beef today, if you are interested, you can go and have a look, there are quite a few just now, and there are not many people who buy beef."
Zhao Mingxia smiled and raised her arm and pointed to the inside of the vegetable field.
She could see that their director was also a picky eater, and she really didn't know how he was a soldier in those years, why didn't he starve to death in the army.
"Hey, beef is a good thing, thank you, Director Zhao, I'll go over and have a look."
Cattle, which is an important labor force in the countryside, have been strictly forbidden to be slaughtered since ancient times.
The beef that can appear in the market must be allowed to be sold only when the cow is old
Target.
None of the sick or dead can be here.
Of course Li Heng was interested in this thing, he couldn't remember the last time he ate beef.
After separating from Zhao Mingxia, he came directly to the butcher shop.
There are not many people queuing up to buy meat today, he stood behind and looked at it, five or six people in front of him all bought pork, although the meat seller will recommend beef to everyone, and the price is cheaper by a dime per catty, but still no one cares.
Also, pork can be refined and eaten when you buy it, and beef is waste oil, and anyone will calculate this economic account.
"Comrade, can I buy all this beef?"
It was Li Heng's turn, and he didn't wait for the meat seller to introduce him, and what he said directly made the family petrified.
The meat seller is really stupid, and he has been selling meat for several years after the liberation, and it is the first time he has encountered such an arrogant buyer.
"Ugh...... Comrade, you ...... What do you say?" The one asked again in disbelief.
"I said, I just watched for a long time and no one bought beef, can you sell me all this piece?"
Li Heng spoke again very patiently, and at the same time stretched out his finger and pointed to the piece of beef on the board.
"This piece of beef is about fourteen or fifteen catties, are you sure you want it?" This is also a ticket to be issued."
The meat sellers, the queues behind, are all stupid.
Good guys, I bought so much at one time, except for the purchase of the restaurant, I really haven't seen it again.
"I know I want tickets, I can say that, then there must be so many, so, do you sell them or not?" Li Heng was a little annoyed by the question.
"Sell, of course sell, as long as you have a ticket and money, I will definitely sell."
To tell you the truth, this meat seller has a good temper, if he changes to a temper tantrum, he can directly drive Li Heng away, I won't sell you, okay?
These days, selling things is so horizontal.
Fifteen catties and six taels of beef, and then three catties of pork, he walked with a long list of strange eyes.
Thanks to the fact that almost no one knows him here, otherwise in a few minutes, the news that he bought more than a dozen catties of beef at one time would have spread throughout the district.
When he returned to the gate of the courtyard, he had a pound of beef left in his hand, and everything else had been put into the warehouse by him.
"Erheng, what kind of meat are you buying here?"
Brother Liu and sister-in-law Liu in the front yard have not changed their attitude towards him, they are affectionate but a little distanced, which makes Li Heng feel very comfortable.
"I went out to the vegetable market in Dongdan just now, and I happened to meet someone who bought beef again, so I cut a piece."
"It's beef, no wonder it looks so strange."
Yan Bugui, who was on the other side, was a little embarrassed, and wanted to come over, but when he thought of last night, he retreated again.
The little girl, who had already gotten up, heard the voice of her man outside, and came out of the house to take the meat he was carrying.
"How did you remember to buy beef?"
"I haven't eaten it in a long time, and I'm a little greedy.".
