Chapter 51 Do you believe me when I say I did it on purpose?
After calling a few more wallflowers, we arrived at the third floor of Wuhua. Li Jiayi shouted: "Uncle Sun."
Uncle Sun is Aunt Sun's man, and he also has legs. He has a disability, but this is not an injury, but a problem he has had since childhood.
Uncle Sun is responsible for sweeping the streets at the street office, and his monthly salary is only eighteen yuan. This is because he works for a long time.
Otherwise, the salary of street sweepers would only be fifteen yuan.
Aunt Sun has no job, so she usually goes to the street office to get some work like gluing matchboxes.
The two have three children. The eldest daughter, Sun Qingmin, is 13 years old, the second daughter, Sun Qingmei, is 10 years old, and their son, Sun Qingjun, is seven years old.
It can be said that life is not easy, and with Aunt Sun making matchboxes, the two of them only have 223 yuan a month, or 234 yuan at most.
“Five people, ten kilograms and five taels.”
Li Jia cut down a piece of pork belly, but it was not big, about five kilograms at most.
"Plus one, this is not enough." Liao Kai said.
“How much is left?”
“Almost six pounds.”
“Okay, I get it.”
Then Li adds a handful of pigs He took out the suet, cut a piece and put it on it and asked: "Is it enough this time?"
"Enough, enough."
In fact, it's not just enough, but a little more, but Liao Kai won't say it out loud.
When the people waiting to share the meat saw Li Jiayi giving Uncle Sun a large piece of pork suet, their eyes turned red.
This is pork suet! Even in Pigeon Market, lard suet costs at least 1.5 yuan per pound, which is much more expensive than pork.
It’s useless to be jealous! Li Jiayi would not give it to them, so they could only be jealous.
"Aunt Xu!" Li Jiayi shouted again.
Aunt Xu is a widow. Her husband passed away a few years ago, and she lives alone with three children.
The most important thing is that Aunt Xu, like Uncle Sun, works as a street sweeper in the street office, and she only has fifteen yuan a month.
After get off work, I have to take my children to bake matchboxes. As for life, it is more difficult than at Uncle Sun’s house.
But these, when Ying Jiasheng and the three of them were nothing but toys, they could not see them at all.
Li Jiayi cut off another piece of pork belly, this time it was less, no more than two kilograms at most.
This time without waiting for Liao Kai to say anything, he asked directly: "Uncle Liao, how much is the difference?"
"Plus one, this is a bit much, six pounds is seven pounds faster. It's heavy." Liao Kai said.
"Well!" Li Jiayi took out another piece of pork suet, cut off a little and a half and put it on top and asked, "Is it enough?"
"Enough, enough."< br>
"Aunt Xu, take it."
"Jiayi, thank you."
"Hi, thank you for what." Li Jiayi said indifferently.
Looking at Ying Jiasheng and the other three, they all had dark faces. They paid for the wild boar, but everyone thanked Li Jiayi.
This makes them feel very uncomfortable, even very uncomfortable.
Li Jia took a look and saw that there were about five or six kilograms of pork suet left, so he shouted: "Aunt Cheng." Stop work.
My parents-in-law are in poor health and have to take medicine. They also have two children. Their son, Shao Jianjun, is 12 years old this year, and their daughter, Shao Ningxia, is eight years old.
Li Jia always put the lard on the scale first and asked: "Uncle Liao, how much is the difference?"
"There is still four pounds and six taels left."
< br>
"Yeah!" Li Jia nodded, cut a piece of pork belly and put it on.
“That’s enough.”
It’s actually one more tael, but Liao Kai didn’t say it, and Li Jiayi also knew it.
Anyway, he could make amends with a few bad guys in the yard. In this case, why would he say it?
"Aunt Cheng, take it." "Plus one, thank you."
"Aunt Cheng, you are so polite. If I want to thank you, I should also thank Uncle Ying and the others."
Aunt Cheng smiled, without saying a word, holding the meat and pigs The suet went back.
Soon after one fan of pork was divided, another fan began to be divided.
“Peng Zhanquan!”
"Shi Shangfei!"
"Hai Dafu!"
Soon we arrived at the pork belly again, and Li Jia cut a piece directly, no matter how much it was.
"Li Aimin!"
"Smelly boy, I think you haven't done anything for three days, can you try calling me again?"
"Uh! Dad, if I say I did it on purpose, would you believe it?"
"I believe you."
"I said you don't believe it either."
"Pfft!" Ye Xin laughed directly next to her.
This made Li Aimin confused, turned around and asked: "What's the situation?"
Li Aimin soon realized that he didn't believe Li Jiayi did it on purpose, so it wasn't intentional.
This made Li Aimin very helpless. He did not expect that Li Jia would do the opposite after a while.
Talking the words the other way around made him unable to react for a moment, and he was fooled by his son.
The meat was divided quickly, and there was still a little bit left at the end, probably only about half a catty.
This is not something Li Jiayi deducted. Don’t forget that there is still one person who didn’t score.
That's right, Liao Kai hasn't divided yet!
Actually, Li Jiayi did it on purpose, and this is probably the only part of the split.
"Brother Hui, this is what I promised you before, take it back!"
"Uh, plus one, no need for this." Ji Hui waved his hand quickly and said.
“Take it if it’s given to you.” Li Jiayi stuffed it directly into his hand without saying a word.
"Okay, the meat is divided. Let's go back."
"That's not right! There are still pigs in the water. Where are the pig heads and bones?" Shen Yongcai came up and said.
“Shen Yongcai, don’t you know that pigs in the water are prepared for those who kill pigs?”
“Well, but what about the pig heads and bones?”
"Uncle Liao didn't get a share of the meat, so the pig's head was given to him. Others came to help, so we couldn't let them go back empty-handed! Uncle Liao gave them some of the pig's semen, and gave them the bones as well."
In this era, bones are just bones. It can be said that they are very clean and there is not even a bit of meat on them.
But even if there is no meat, these bones are also good. Making soup is very nutritious.
As for the ribs, if you leave them, there will be ribs. If you don’t, there will be just bones.
"You..."
Before Shen Yongcai finished speaking, Li Jiayi interrupted him and said: "If you are not satisfied with my allocation, you can go to Director Xu."< br>
"Okay, Old Shen, that's it!" Peng Zhanquan patted Shen Yongcai on the shoulder and said.
He didn't want Shen Yongcai to go to Director Xu, which would leave a bad impression on him in front of Director Xu.
Besides, no one in the courtyard is talking! This shows that everyone has agreed with Li Jiayi's allocation.
At this time, no matter what you say, it is useless. Even if it is a show of hands, you will still side with Li Jiayi in the end.
After everyone left, Li Jiayi said: "Uncle Liao, I will leave it to you. Don't worry about the pot. Whoever borrows it will give it to him."
"Okay, you should go back quickly. By the way, tell your dad that I will cook some vegetables and go over to meet him for a few drinks."
