Chapter Twenty-Seven: The Bamboo Basket Draws Water is Empty

"I don't understand this, how can Lou Xiao'e teach you."

Seeing that He Xiao had not said anything, Qin Huairu was so angry that he scolded in his heart.

Glancing at He Xiao, she took a deep breath and simply said it directly.

"He Xiao, you want to come and live for a while, I, I don't want to wronged you, but you can also see that life at home is not easy, so I want you to pay some food expenses."

"Don't think about it too much, on normal days, we all eat coarse grains and vegetables, but when you come, you can't let you eat coarse grains with us, right? You can't get used to it. ”

As soon as Qin Huairu finished speaking, everyone on the table was stunned.

Meals!

Stick terrier, small when a few, then I understood, my mother's attitude has changed so much, it turned out to be for food.

Opening their mouths, a few of them didn't know what to say.

I always feel a little aggrieved in my heart, for a little money, as for being so good to He Xiao?

They panicked for their mother.

"Huairu, He Xiao is my own son, what do you want for food?"

Silly Zhu's face turned red, nothing else, and he panicked.

He can't even afford to raise his own son? also has to pay for food, and his daughter-in-law really trampled his face into the mud.

"Zhuzi, Huairu is right about this, since we eat together, we should pay for food, and I don't pay it every month."

The first uncle took a sip of the red star and the second pot head, and said cool words next to him.

"Uncle Yi, this is not the same ......"

Qin Huairu saw that Silly Zhu's face was wrong, and hurriedly explained:

"Silly Zhu, I'm also for He Xiao's good, He Xiao will pay some money, I'll buy him some good ones, there are meat dishes every day, he is from Xiangjiang, he can't follow us all day long to eat coarse grains, right?"

"I ......"

Silly Zhu opened his mouth for a long time, but he didn't know how to refute it at all.

Their small canteen ate quite well a few days ago, and the son and daughter-in-law of the three grandfathers invited him to be a chef, and he could bring some food every time he came back.

But a few days ago, Yan Jiecheng and Yu Li quit him, and they didn't talk about the dishes, and they didn't even have another income.

The life of the family is really not easy.

Turning his head to look at his son, he picked up the wine cup, tilted his head and left.

It's really embarrassing!

"Hoo ......"

Thinking about it, the stupid pillar has red eyes, and he still can't accept it.

"No, I can't charge He Xiao's food money anyway, I'll find a way to let my own son eat well!"

"Think of a way, what can you think of? Can you make money empty-handed? ”

Qin Huairu's face changed, her mouth pouted, and she was about to shed tears when she saw it.

"Silly Zhu, let me tell you, today's meal will eat half a month's food expenses for our family, if the rolling mill does not pay wages this month, our whole family will have to drink the northwest wind."

Silly Zhu didn't speak, he picked up Moutai, poured himself a glass, and then tilted his head to dry.

"I know you're embarrassed, but you can at least ask He Xiao if it's right, He Xiao is from Xiangjiang, can he still be short of money?"

Qin Huairu snorted, then pointed to Moutai on the table, and said:

"Look at this bottle of wine, it's more expensive than our food, can he lack that little food money?"

The eyes of everyone on the table all looked at He Xiao, who was watching the play on the side.

……

I don't know why, He Xiao didn't feel angry at all, but wanted to laugh.

What is it called?

Intrigues and tricks, hollowing out their minds, all for that little food money, all for sucking other people's blood.

If you put this mind on making money, not to mention the richest man in Beijing, the richest man in Qingyun Hutong will definitely be able to do it.

Shaking his head, he smiled at Qin Huairu and asked, "How much food are you going to charge me?" ”

Qin Huairu's heart was relieved, and seeing that He Xiao had a good attitude, she smiled and defended herself.

"He Xiao, I'm not for myself, it's all for your own good, no matter how much you pay for food, won't it end up in your stomach."

"Well, you're right, how much do you charge me for food?"

He Xiao nodded, asking about the price.

"Hmm......"

Qin Huairu snapped his fingers and calculated with him.

"Look, three meals a day, you must eat meat, the meat in the vegetable market is not cheap, and you also need meat tickets, you can't buy it with money alone."

"The cost of a meal alone is four or five yuan, and that's not counting the labor."

"Thirty days a month, so let's do it, you give me one hundred and fifty yuan a month, you are from Xiangjiang, I know you don't have RMB, just give me foreign exchange coupons."

"One hundred and fifteen? Foreign exchange coupons? ”

Well, one hundred and fifty foreign exchange coupons, she really dares to ask for them.

He Xiao was quite speechless, but don't think that this one hundred and fifty is not much, just Qin Huairu's monthly salary in the rolling mill, it is not fifty yuan.

Besides, the value of foreign exchange bills can be higher than that of RMB.

"Is one hundred and five enough? It cost a lot of food on this table today, right? ”

"Enough, enough."

Qin Huairu nodded, she glanced at the table, and said with a smile:

"Today's table of dishes cost less than twenty yuan, He Xiao, today is your first day here, so the dishes are richer, we can't eat like this every day, don't be picky in the future."

He Xiao nodded, and understood.

Twenty bucks......

He glanced at the table, there were five people in the Jia family, an uncle, Silly Zhu and himself, a total of eight people.

Twenty dollars divided by eight people, each of whom drew two dollars and five cents.

Hey, He Xiao calculates like this, it feels quite cost-effective, but it's a pity that the Jia family is not the master who can get along.

He took out the money from his pocket, and looked for it, all of them were foreign exchange coupons, and he didn't bring any yuan, all of them were in a small suitcase.

Forget it, he was also troublesome, so he took out two one-yuan, five-corner foreign exchange coupons, and put them directly on the table in front of him.

Qin Huairu was stunned, a little incomprehensible.

"He Xiao, what are you?"

"You can keep today's meal money."

He Xiao smiled, and then stood up.

"I'm sorry for you, I'm not going to eat at your place, so I'd better forget about the food expenses."

Glancing at everyone at the table, he turned to leave.

"Hmm, I almost forgot ......"

He Xiao paused, he turned around and smiled embarrassedly, then picked up the remaining half bottle of Moutai on the table and walked towards the north room.

Everyone at the table was stunned for a moment, and they didn't react until He Xiao entered the room.

Qin Huairu was even more incredulous, she muttered to herself, "How can you not eat here?" If he doesn't eat here, where else can he go? ”

Looking at the dishes on the table, and then at the three foreign exchange coupons in front of her, she suddenly felt so painful that she couldn't breathe.

Twenty yuan of vegetable money was exchanged for two and a half yuan of foreign exchange coupons.

It's a loss, this meal, it's a big loss.

ps: Treasures, I'm testing the waters, and I'm asking for a follow-up, especially the two-day follow-up reading tomorrow, it's too important for meow, everyone is free, don't forget to come in and take a look.

Kneel and beg, thank you.
