Since the opening of the vegetable market prepared by Xu Qiang, the fruit trading between him and Kong Qixian and An Xiaojun has changed from dark to bright, and he has begun to cooperate through formal channels.

Naturally, there are people below to operate these things, so Xu Qiang hasn't seen An Xiaojun and Kong Qixian for some days.

When An Xiaojun saw Jinhua coming over with Xu Qiang, a smile suddenly appeared on his face, and after beckoning him to sit down, he went to make tea in person, and brought two plates of melon seeds and peanuts.

An Xiaojun originally wanted to call Kong Qixian over to get a drinking party, but Xu Qiang refused.

After listening to Xu Qiang's brief explanation of going to Jinmen, An Xiaojun did not hesitate, and directly nodded and agreed:

"Brother, don't worry, tomorrow morning I will arrange for someone to go to the vicinity of Chang'an Farm to keep an eye on it, and let Jinhua go with me when the time comes."

"If everything goes well, it's great, if it doesn't go well, my brothers don't eat dry food."

The two hadn't seen each other for a long time, and after talking about the matter, they talked about their recent situation, and when Xu Qiang was about to get up and go home, he found that it was already dark, and it was almost ten o'clock.

Hurriedly got up to say goodbye to An Xiaojun and rode back on his bicycle.

Along the way, the bicycle was almost smoked by his pedaling, but when he returned to the courtyard, the gate was still locked.

Xu Qiang sighed heavily.

It's not that he's afraid of the old guy in the bangs, but the main thing is that he doesn't want to mess with the other party.

It's so cheap!

Moreover, it also wastes his brain cells.

However, looking at the closed door in front of you, you have to knock on the door even if you don't want to rip the strings, so you can't spend the night outside tonight, right?

Raising his hand and knocking on the door, Xu Qiang thought he would have to wait for a while.

Unexpectedly, after knocking on the door once, it opened with a "squeak", revealing the dark face of the third master, Zhao Datong, in the door.

As soon as he saw Xu Qiang standing outside the door, he immediately staggered and asked him to push his bicycle in:

"Xu Qiang is back?"

"Hey, the third master, I'm really sorry, I'm still bothering you so late."

Xu Qiang said politely, and while pushing the bicycle into the gate, he took out a box of large front doors from his trouser pocket, and was about to pull out one.

However, when I saw that there were few cigarette boxes left, I simply stuffed the box into Zhao Datong's hand:

"Three masters, there are not many of them, don't be too little."

Zhao Datong subconsciously glanced down, and there were seven or eight cigarettes in the box, and he was suddenly a little embarrassed:

"This ...... I can't ...... this."

As he spoke, he was about to return the cigarette box in his hand to Xu Qiang, but Xu Qiang pushed it back again:

"Three masters, what you said is that they all live in the same hospital, what can you want, are you too little?"

"No, no, no, that's not what I meant."

Zhao Datong hurriedly waved his hand.

In order to prevent him from having too much contact with Xu Qiang, Uncle Yi specially handed over the task of opening and locking the door in the courtyard to the old bastard in the bangs.

Although Zhao Datong was under the eaves at that time and had to bow his head, he secretly kept an eye on it.

After eating after work today, I found that Xu Qiang went out in a hurry on a bicycle, and he hadn't come back when his bangs were locked.

Zhao Datong knew that the opportunity he had been waiting for had come.

The daughter-in-law dangled in front of him a few times in the torn vest, and although he was about to move, in the end reason prevailed and sat on the kang to guard.

If nothing else, just wait for Xu Qiang to come back and open the door for him before he can bang for him.

Of course, Zhao Datong would not think about opening the door to Xu Qiang once, and the relationship between the two families would be much better.

Everything has to be gradual, isn't it?

The two pushed twice in the yard because of a box of cigarettes, and Zhao Datong saw that Xu Qiang was really giving it to himself, so he didn't say anything anymore, put away the cigarettes and closed the door.

As a result, Zhao Datong's door was halfway closed, and suddenly he heard someone shouting behind him:

"Wait!"

It was past ten o'clock, the yard was quiet, and every family had already turned off the lights to sleep, and there was no movement to give birth to a child.

Xu Qiang was okay, Zhao Datong was directly frightened by this voice, and trembled.

turned his head to take a look, and found that the old guy in the bangs was coming from the moon gate in a panic with a flashlight, stretched out his hand and pointed at Zhao Datong and began to shout:

"Zhao Datong, what are you doing?"

Zhao Datong looked confused, looking at his bangs, he didn't know why he reacted so much.

However, he still stopped what he was doing, frowned and said, "I'll close the door!" ”

As soon as Liu Haizhong heard Zhao Datong say this, the whole person became more energetic, the light of the flashlight pointed to the door that had not been completely closed, and asked menacingly:

"Okay, you Zhao Datong, what do you want to do?"

As he spoke, he caught a glimpse of the half box of cigarettes in Zhao Datong's hand, and his eyes widened suddenly.

The flashlight shone directly on the cigarette box, and a nameless anger suddenly arose in his chest, and the top of his entire popularity was about to smoke:

"Zhao Datong, what are you holding in your hand?"

"Is it Xu Qiang bribing your dirty things? I tell you, don't try to deny it, this is what I saw with my own eyes, everyone has stolen money, even if it is a master......"

It's just that before he finished speaking, he felt a flower in front of him, and then there were two crisp sounds, but it was Xu Qiang, who was standing beside him, who directly raised his hand and slapped their big mouths.

"Bangs, what did you just say? I bribe the three masters? ”

Xu Qiang's gloomy voice sounded in the darkness, and his tone was as cold as a shovel placed outside on a cold day.

Liu Haizhong raised his hand to cover his cheek, and turned his head to look at Xu Qiang in horror:

"Xu, Xu Qiang, you ...... What are you doing? How dare you hit me? ”

Such a big movement naturally alarmed everyone in the yard, and every household turned on the lights, and the old men put on a coat and came out of the house sleepy-eyed.

Yi Zhonghai, the first master in the middle courtyard, and Lao Jiang, the second master in the backyard, were also alarmed, and they went to the front yard one by one, looking at the three people standing at the door, they all frowned.

Zhao Datong saw that the people in the yard were alarmed, so he simply didn't hide it, took two steps forward to meet the first and second masters, and took out two large front doors from the cigarette case in his hand and handed them to the two.

The first and second uncles saw the cigarette box at the front door, and although they were surprised how Lao Zhao Jin'er was so generous, they didn't have too many doubts and took it easily.

The second uncle, Lao Jiang, touched it in his trouser pocket, took out a box of matches and struck the fire with a "snort", first lit it for the first uncle, and then lit it for himself, and took two puffs hard.

sighed in their hearts, in the end, it was the big front door, not comparable to the economic cigarettes they usually smoked.

After swallowing the clouds and spitting out the fog a few times, the person was also a little more energetic, and then the first uncle asked:

"What are you arguing about in the yard when you don't sleep at night?"

Xu Qiang didn't dodge either, and simply said what happened just now.

focused on the half of the box of cigarettes in Zhao Datong's hand:

"I came back late today, knocked on the door for a while and didn't open it, and then the third master listened to the movement and opened the door for me, and I thanked him for giving him a cigarette."

"It turned out that there were not many in the box, so I simply gave it all to him, and I had to trouble people so late, so I'm embarrassed."

"As a result, this old guy in the bangs suddenly popped up with a flashlight, saying that I would give a bribe to the third master."

When the first and second uncles heard Xu Qiang say this, they subconsciously glanced at the cigarette in their hands, and they all frowned.

This Lao Zhao, who usually looks honest, didn't think that he would really slip when it came to a critical time.

However, Xu Qiang didn't care what the first and second uncles were thinking about, he looked at the first uncle with a cold face and asked:

"I'm so late to trouble the third master, give him a cigarette, this is the least sincerity, right?"

"Uncle Yi, you are now the deputy director of the workshop, can you say such things as "bribery and bribery"? ”

"Bangs opened my mouth and said that I bribed the three masters, I want to ask everyone in the yard, have you ever seen a bribe with half a box of cigarettes?"

"Today, I have to thank everyone for proving my Xu Qiang's innocence, otherwise once this reputation spreads, those who don't know will think that there is really some illegal and undisciplined collusion between me and the three masters."
