Chapter 159: Coming to the door
“Little bastard, why are you smiling? I think you need to be dealt with.”
“Old Li, what are you doing?” Aunt Tian came out of the house. ask.
"It's okay."
"Jiayi is here?" Aunt Tian smiled at Li Jiayi and asked.
"Yes, Auntie, I'll send you some New Year's goods by the way." After saying that, he handed over what he was carrying.
Because they are all wrapped in oil paper, you can’t even see what they are.
Aunt Tian asked: "What is this?"
"Some pork, lard and beef."
Aunt Tian asked in surprise: "These are all Yes?”
"Yes."
Li Jia brought a lot of meat, ten pounds of pork belly, ten pounds of pork suet, and five pounds of beef.
At this time, it is definitely a big gift, especially when the New Year is coming soon.
Although she and Lao Li both had a lot of food, they only bought more than five kilograms of pork during the New Year.
These are not normal times. Even if you borrow meat tickets from others, it is impossible to borrow them because everyone needs them.
"This is too much. If you take back half of it, your family will need it for the Chinese New Year!" Aunt Tian said.
Before Li Jiayi could say anything, Lao Li curled his lips and said, "Do you think this kid's family will be short of these things?"
"Uh!"
Only then did Aunt Tian remember that every time Li Jiayi came to the house, he would bring some meat or something.
It can be seen from here that he does not lack these.
But having said that, it doesn't seem to have anything to do with whether people are in short supply or not. The Chinese New Year is coming soon, and sending so much meat all at once is a huge favor.
Thinking of this, Aunt Tian turned her head and looked at Lao Li and said, "Didn't you get a lot of tobacco and alcohol tickets a few days ago? You go buy them and ask Jiayi to take them back to his father."
"Ah! This..."
"What, you don't agree?" Aunt Tian looked at Lao Li and asked.
"Xiaotian! It's not that I disagree, the problem is that this guy doesn't lack these things! He even has many times more than me."
"Ah!" Aunt Tian turned her head and looked at Li Jiayi, as if asking if it was true.
"Aunt Tian, Lao Li is right, I do not lack these things. As for what Lao Li has in his hand, let him keep it!"
Li Jiayi It’s not that there’s a shortage of these tickets now, it’s that we can’t buy them all at once.
At the speed he is buying now, he probably won’t be able to finish it in twenty or thirty trips.
"Okay, otherwise, Auntie will give you the money." After thinking about it, Auntie Tian still felt that it couldn't be in vain.
"No need, Aunt Tian. The reason why I sent these here is to let your family have a good New Year."
"But..."
"Okay Xiaotian, this kid's motherfucker He is just a rich man who doesn't like us at all."
"This..." Aunt Tian still felt that this was not good.
After all, Li Jiayi is just a child, and his own family takes advantage of someone else’s child. It’s a bit unjustifiable no matter what.
"Aunt Tian, these things are not given to you for free. I want to borrow someone from you."
"Borrow someone?" Aunt Tian was a little confused and didn't understand what Li Jiayi meant.
"Yes, Aunt Tian, I have a lot of tickets in my hand. These tickets can only be used by the service agency, so I want to borrow Li Jian and Li Kang to help me deliver the things I bought. . ”
Li Jiayi made this on a temporary basis. Since Aunt Tian didn’t want his things to be in vain, she would use this as repayment.
Hearing what Li Jiayi said, Lao Li curled his lips. If others didn't know, he would still know what the votes Li Jiayi was talking about were about.
"Hey, what's the matter! You can ask them for help at any time. If they dare not go, I will ask Lao Li to take care of them."
If Lao Li usually takes care of Li Jian and Li Kang, Aunt Tian would definitely stop him, but if he said such words today, Li Jian and Li Kang would never dare not help.
"Thank you Aunt Tian, I may come here more often in the past few days before the Chinese New Year."
"It's okay, they two have nothing to do at home anyway, just let them follow you .”
“Hmm!”
Li Jiayi chatted with Lao Li and Aunt Tian for a few more words, and then took Li Jian and Li Kang out.
Then he went straight to the compound service club.
With the help of Li Jian and Li Kang, one purchase is equivalent to the previous three or four times.
For example, when buying wine before, he could only buy one box at a time, and then buy ten or eight cartons of cigarettes.
No way, he is a teenage boy and it is suspicious to take too many things at once.
You must know that wine in this era basically has no outer packaging. Most wines, including Maotai and Juhuabai, come with 24 bottles in a box.
So one box is already a lot, and some wines even have twenty-five bottles, with five bottles in a row and five rows in a box. The boxes are square and square.
After Li Jiayi left with Li Jian and Li Kang, Lao Li said: "Xiaotian! There is more meat now, and there is also a lot of pork suet. I think I will use the refining oil to make it crispy. Meat. ”
Lao Li likes this one better. Every time he eats crispy meat, he thinks of the New Year celebrations at home when he was a child.
But there was not enough meat at home before, and it was not enough without deep-frying the crispy meat, so there was no deep-fried meat. Now Li Jiayi sent ten kilograms of it all at once, and he insisted on frying some.
"Okay, Zhang Ma and I are going to refine the oil and fry some crispy pork."
"Yeah! By the way, pork is used for frying crispy pork. Don't use beef. Just keep the beef for cooking. Let’s eat!”
“Okay.”
Let’s not talk about Li Jiayi taking Li Jian and Li Kang to the service agency to buy things.
Let’s talk about Lao Li’s house first. Aunt Tian and Zhang Ma were refining oil in the kitchen, and soon the fragrance wafted out. In fact, Lao Li and his family are not short of oil. During this period, Li Jiayi would bring some meat every time he came over.
All the meat was eaten, but when Li Jiayi came here for the first time, he also brought ten pounds of pork suet!
I originally wanted to eat slowly, but this time I have ten pounds, so there is no need to save too much.
Although the Chinese New Year is coming soon, such a strong fragrance still attracts people from the compound.
First of all, there are the neighbors to the left and right of Lao Li’s house.
The person on the left is named Wu. He is in his sixties, slightly older than Lao Li, but not a few years older.
The family on the right is named Niu and is over sixty years old.
Although the two men are slightly older than Lao Li, they are at the same level, and even invisible Lao Li is higher than them.
After all, Lao Li is the leader of an army!
"Old Li, open the door." Old Wu shouted while banging the door.
Soon Lao Li came to the gate, opened the door and said: "I said you two old guys, if you don't stay at home to celebrate the New Year, what are you doing here?"
"Lao Li, don't follow me. We are playing tricks on you, do you have any way?"< br>
"What way? I don't understand what you are talking about!"
"Your family is producing oil."
Old Li curled his lips and said: "It is not normal to produce oil. No! Who doesn’t produce oil during the Chinese New Year?”
Hearing what Lao Li said, Lao Wu and Lao Niu were helpless and looked at each other.
Seeing this Lao Li became vigilant and quickly blocked the door.
But it was too late. Just when Lao Wu and Lao Niu looked at each other, the two people had reached a consensus.
Lao Wu went up and hugged Lao Li. Lao Niu ran into the house and then went straight to the kitchen.
"Old Wu, you bastard, look back and see how I deal with you!" Lao Li scolded outside.
When Lao Niu came to the kitchen, he saw half a pot of pork fat simmering in the pot, and saw Zhang Ma cutting a large piece of pork.
Everyone felt bad. He ran out and pointed at Lao Li who was cursing and said: "Lao Li, you are so unethical. You are eating alone!"
Lao Li said Lao Wu shook it off and said, "Go away. Since when did I eat alone?"
"I said I didn't eat alone. Go to the kitchen and see for yourself." Lao Niu pointed in the direction of the kitchen and said.
"What are you looking at? What's wrong with me eating alone?" Lao Li said roguely.
"Uh!"
Lao Wu and Lao Niu were stunned for a moment, but they quickly came to their senses and said, "I'm telling you, Lao Li, if you don't tell us where you are today, we won't leave."
"Yes, we are not leaving. We will eat at your house today until the end of the New Year."
"I said you two are being rogue, aren't you?" Lao Li was helpless. said.
“It’s just a rogue thing. Either you tell us where you are, or we will eat and sleep at your house.”
"I really have no connections. This was sent to me by my nephew. How can I have any connections?"
"Your nephew?"
If Lao Li said something else, The two of them believed it, but no one believed it when it came to my nephew!
Because they knew very well that Lao Li had no relatives at all, let alone any nephews.
“Yes, my nephew.”
"I said, Lao Li, if you say something else, we will believe it. If you say my nephew, ask the entire military compound if anyone believes it?"
"Yes."
"What I said is true."
"Wait a minute, Lao Li, the nephew you are talking about is not the kid who came here today, is he?" Lao Wu asked.
When Li Jiayi came over today, he happened to pass by the door of his house. He was in the yard at the time and happened to see it.
"That's right."
"What about your nephew? Call him out and let's ask him."
"Get out of here, what do you want to do?" Lao Li asked.
"Oh, Lao Li, since your nephew has connections, doesn't he..."
Before Lao Wu finished speaking, Lao Li pushed him aside and said: "Here I'm going to get out of my way, I'm telling you, don't even think about it."
"Old Li, you are not being honest."
"Dad, Uncle Wu, Uncle Niu, what are you doing?"
Just at this time, Li Jian and Li Kang came back from outside .
They helped Li Jia deliver the shopping to an alley outside the gate and returned.
"It's okay, you two go back to the house." Lao Li said.
"Oh!" The two people nodded and walked into the house.
Halfway through, Li Jian turned around and said, "By the way, Dad, Jiayi said he would come over again in the afternoon."
"Little bastard, did I let you in the house? Do you hear that?"
Looking at Lao Li's angry look, Lao Wu and Lao Niu looked at each other and said quickly: "Lao Li! Since there is nothing wrong, we will go back first."
< br>After saying that, the two people walked out.
Looking at their backs, Lao Li smiled bitterly, shook his head and said, "These two old foxes."
