At five o'clock in the evening, Jia Dongxu and Yi Zhonghai returned to the courtyard together, and Jia Zhang, who was taking the soles of his shoes in the house, saw Jia Dongxu coming back, and immediately said to Jia Dongxu: "Dongxu! The food at home is finished, and during the day today, I went to the pigeon market, and found that the food in the pigeon market has tripled, what do you say? ”

When Jia Dongxu heard Jia Zhang's words, his brows immediately furrowed, and he asked Jia Zhang's with some unhappiness: "Mom! Didn't I just buy my ration not long ago? How did you eat so quickly? ”

When Jia Zhang heard Jia Dongxu's words, he retorted a little unhappily: "Dongxu! Half a month has passed since you bought the ration to today, and the stick terrier is the time to grow the body, where is the food enough to eat? ”

When Jia Dongxu heard Jia Zhang's push the problem to the stick terrier, a dissatisfied expression immediately appeared on his face, and he retorted to Jia Zhang's: "Mom! During this time, I often ate at Qin Dabao's house, and I didn't eat at home at noon, so why wasn't there enough food at home? ”

When Jia Zhang heard Jia Dongxu's questioning, he immediately quit and asked Jia Dongxu dissatisfiedly: "Dongxu! What do you mean by this, do you think that I have stolen all the food at home? ”

When Jia Dongxu heard Jia Zhang's questioning, he thought of his life before he divorced Qin Huairu, and asked Jia Zhang's with some dissatisfaction: "Mom! Before I divorced Huairu, there were five people in our family, and we ate so much food, why was there enough food at that time, but not enough food now? ”

When Jia Zhang heard Jia Dongxu's questioning, he immediately quit, sat on the ground, and cried: "Old Jia! Come back and check it out! I finally dragged your son to grow up, but he hated me for eating the food of the family. ”

When Jia Dongxu saw Jia Zhang's sitting on the ground crying, he immediately felt one head and two big, thinking of the current situation of the Jia family, Jia Dongxu yelled at Jia Zhang's with a dissatisfied face: "Mom! If you hadn't beaten Huairu at the beginning, I wouldn't have divorced Huairu, and our family wouldn't have run out of food, I advise you to stop making trouble, otherwise I'll send you back to the countryside. ”

Jia Zhang, who was crying and mourning, saw that Jia Dongxu was going to send her back to the countryside, and immediately became anxious, quickly stood up from the ground, and said to Jia Dongxu with a fearful face: "Dongxu! I won't make trouble, you must not send me back to the country. ”

When Jia Dongxu saw Jia Zhang's begging for mercy, he glanced at Jia Zhang's with a resentful face, and said to Jia Zhang's dissatisfied: "I'll go to my master's side to see if I can borrow some food and come back, you hurry up and cook for me." ”

When Jia Zhang heard Jia Dongxu's words, he thought of what she had been pondering in her heart, and hurriedly said to Jia Dongxu: "Dongxu! The price of grain in Pigeon City has tripled, Wu Aiguo's lack of virtue can get cheap grain, you will remember to let Yi Zhonghai, that old guy, think of a way, see if you can buy some cheap grain from Wu Aiguo? ”

When Jia Dongxu heard Jia Zhang's advice, he immediately remembered that Jia Zhang's report on Wu Aiguo was at the beginning, and thinking of the price of food, Jia Dongxu nodded, and then lifted the curtain and walked towards the outside of the house.

"Is Master here?" Jia Dongxu walked to the door of Yi Zhonghai's house, shouted into the house, and then lifted the curtain and walked into the house.

Yi Zhonghai, who was about to eat, saw Jia Dongxu walk into the house and asked Jia Dongxu curiously: "Dongxu! You came to me at this time, is there anything wrong? ”

When Jia Dongxu heard Yi Zhonghai's inquiry, he thought of the reason why he came to find Yi Zhonghai, and said with some embarrassment: "Master! I have no food at home, can you lend me some food. ”

When Yi Zhonghai heard Jia Dongxu's words, his brows furrowed slightly, and he opened his mouth to ask Jia Dongxu: "Dongxu! Didn't your family's ration just buy it not long ago? Why is there no food? ”

Jia Dongxu heard Yi Zhonghai ask about food, which made him feel very depressed, and hurriedly explained: "Master! I don't know what happened, but as soon as I came back, my mother told me that there was no food at home. ”

Jia Dongxu is Yi Zhonghai's candidate for retirement, Yi Zhonghai will pay more attention to the situation of the Jia family, in the face of Jia Dongxu's explanation, Yi Zhonghai asked puzzledly: "Dongxu!" Before you divorced Huairu, your family of five, relying on your ration alone, could at least last until the end of the month. ”

"Now there are only three people in your family, and the stick terrier will go to his uncle's house in the front yard to eat from time to time, why is there no food in your family in the middle of the month?"

When Jia Dongxu heard Yi Zhonghai's inquiry, he remembered Qin Huairu's kindness again, and said to Yi Zhonghai: "Master! My mother has eaten all the food in the house, and now I don't have any food at home. ”

When Yi Zhonghai heard Jia Dongxu's words, he couldn't help but sigh when he thought of Jia Zhang's virtue, and said to Jia Dongxu: "Dongxu! I don't have much food left at home, you wait a while, I'll ask your wife to give you ten catties of stick noodles. ”

When Jia Dongxu heard Yi Zhonghai's words, he thought of Wu Aiguo's help to get food for the residents in the courtyard at a low price, and immediately said to Yi Zhonghai: "Master! I heard from my mother that the price of grain in the pigeon market has tripled, and it is still priceless. ”

"Wu Aiguo in the front yard, isn't he able to get cheap grain? Let's see, can you think of a way to let Wu Aiguo help us buy some food back. ”

When Yi Zhonghai heard Jia Dongxu's words, he immediately remembered that he had instigated Jia Zhang's to report Wu Aiguo's speculation.

Thinking of this, Yi Zhonghai frowned and said to Jia Dongxu: "Dongxu! At the beginning, Wu Aiguo helped the residents in the courtyard buy food, but was reported by your mother, do you think Wu Aiguo will help your family buy food? ”

When Jia Dongxu heard Yi Zhonghai's words, he immediately remembered that Yi Zhonghai had instigated his mother to report Wu Aiguo.

Thinking of the price of grain that Jia Zhang told him, Jia Dongxu asked Yi Zhonghai with a solemn face: "Master! Why don't you go find the second and third masters, let them come forward to hold a general meeting, and then take the opportunity of the general meeting to let Wu Aiguo help everyone buy affordable food. ”

When Yi Zhonghai heard Jia Dongxu's suggestion, he was immediately moved, thinking of Liu Haizhong and Yan Bugui's character, Yi Zhonghai pondered for a while, and said to Jia Dongxu: "Dongxu! Let me think about it for a moment before I give you an answer. ”

"Dongxu! We don't have much food left in our family, so you can take these ten catties of stick noodles first. An aunt walked up to Jia Dongxu with a cloth bag and said to Jia Dongxu.

When Jia Dongxu heard Aunt Yi's words, he took the cloth bag from Aunt Yi's hand and thanked him gratefully: "Master! Thank you. ”
