Chapter 62 The third uncle is here (please ask for monthly tickets for more updates)
“Dad, I have been feeling weak in my legs for the past two days.”
“Those tomatoes smell delicious. . ”
The third aunt drank the sticky porridge, her face was sallow.
Yan Fugui was holding a steamed bun on the side. The two sons next to him lowered their heads and said nothing. Xiao Yan Jiekuang on the other side was still lying on the bed. He had just eaten and was sleeping.
There was silence in the room.
"I'm going out."
Yan Fugui finally made up his mind, stood up, found half a bottle of wine, and then pushed the door open and walked out.
"Brother, that bottle of wine was not watered down. Didn't dad say to keep it until the Chinese New Year?"
Yan Jiefang asked in confusion.
Yan Jiecheng shook his head, "Don't think nonsense, dad is planning things for our family."
"You guys say that about your dad? Hurry up and go back after eating, you are an eyesore here."
At Yang Xiaotao's house, a plate of charred braised fish was served on the table, along with a bowl of leek and egg soup, three boxes of steamed buns, and a plate of chopped tomatoes topped with brown sugar.
It’s a pity that I didn’t buy any sugar.
If anyone in the courtyard saw the food on this table, they would definitely go crazy with jealousy.
How can ordinary people spend so much money?
Unknown to everyone, except for the two boxes of noodles and steamed buns on the table, which were bought with food stamps, the others were either fishing or redeemed for credits, without spending a penny at all.
Bang bang bang
Just when Yang Xiaotao was halfway through eating, there was a sudden knock on the door.
“Who?”
"Xiao Tao, I, Yan Fugui!"
The voice sounded, and Yang Xiaotao was a little stunned.
Usually Yan Fugui is very concerned about the title of the third uncle.
It’s a bit surprising to say the name directly now.
No matter what, he came to the door and he had to see her.
Standing up and opening the door, Yan Fugui was carrying half a bottle of wine, but he was not as smart as before. There was a smile on his face, "Xiao Tao! He's eating!"
Yan Fugui was a little bit He was worried, he had already lost his face, he was afraid that Yang Xiaotao wouldn't even let him in, which would be really embarrassing.
You don’t need to think about it. At this time, many people in the middle courtyard and even the entire courtyard are watching, or in other words, they are waiting for this outstanding person.
And he, Yan Fugui, is this bird.
If it weren't for his wife at home, he wouldn't want to do this, and he would also want to follow the crowd and plot.
But now, facing Yang Xiaotao, he, a young bird, didn't even have the capital to make calculations, and all the initiative was in Yang Xiaotao's hands.
Yang Xiaotao suddenly understood Yan Fugui's plan. Thinking of what Uncle Chen and his aunt said, he also considered this. There are some people in this compound that he can interact with, just like Uncle Chen's family. , the Wang family, there is no entanglement of interests and they can move around each other.
Some of them can only be regarded as acquaintances. If such people get too close to them, they will be plotted. Just like the third uncle, you need to be careful.
It’s better to stay away from each other forever, just like the Jia family, the first uncle’s family, Xu Damao’s family...
“It’s not easy for the third uncle to come and sit down when he has time.”
Yang Xiaotao thought for a while, then stepped aside and invited Yan Fugui into the room.
At this moment, Yan Fugui breathed a sigh of relief when he heard the title of Third Uncle.
At least you don’t have to worry about being turned away.
I suddenly felt grateful to Yang Xiaotao for not letting him make a fool of himself in public.
The door closed again, blocking prying eyes.
But it made everyone's hearts arouse, and they all wanted to see what the final outcome would be.
Yan Fugui entered the room and looked at the table full of food, his eyes glowing green and he couldn't help but swallow his saliva.
If it had been before, he would have sat down unceremoniously, picked up the chopsticks and tasted it first.
But now, he knows that he cannot offend Yang Xiaotao, and he must abide by the rules when asking for help.
Yang Xiaotao looked at Yan Fugui from the side. Yan Fugui was not anxious today, or in other words, he was not calculating, but rather abiding by the rules.
But he could still see the greed in his eyes. Once such a person tastes the sweetness, he will keep causing trouble, which is no worse than Qin Huairu.
I smiled in my heart, did I really think I couldn’t see anything?
His third uncle is here to test.
Once you open your mouth, you don’t have to think about how long it will take before the old woman and daughter-in-law in the yard and the neighbors will come to your door.
It’s hard to say that when I’m not at home, the things in the yard will be patronized.
"Third uncle, what's the matter?"
Yan Fugui resisted his inner desire and did not sit down, but looked elsewhere.
He had been to Yang Xiaotao's house before, but since Lao Yang's accident, he rarely moved around.
Just by looking at it, he found that the room was neat and clean, especially the books arranged on the side, which made him, a self-proclaimed scholar, feel close to him.
“There are so many books, Xiaotao is really eager to learn.”
Yan Fugui changed the subject and wanted to get closer.
He also has a lot of books at home, but they are all school textbooks and miscellaneous books that he bought himself.
“I have nothing to do on weekdays, so if I like reading, I find some.”
“That’s not easy, there are so many people in our courtyard, and we are the only ones reading!”
>
Yang Xiaotao didn’t care after hearing this, his voice remained calm.
"Studying is good. It opens your eyes, makes sense, can read and write, and the future will be brighter."
"My family is not good at it. Everyone just wants to make money. Let them keep up with their studies." It’s like being tortured and I’m so scared.”
Yan Fugui said mockingly, and Yang Xiaotao sneered in his heart, "Brother Yan Jiecheng wants to make money, aren't you plotting it?"
But this is a family matter, and he also It’s inconvenient to say more.
Yan Fugui talked for a while. Seeing that Yang Xiaotao didn't want to say more, he gritted his teeth and made up his mind and put the wine on the table.
"Xiao Tao, this time the Third Master will come to the Three Treasures Hall for no reason."
Thinking that he has a relationship with a scholar, Yan Fugui stopped being polite and directly stated his purpose.
"Third uncle, if you have anything to say, I'm just a second-level fitter and can't do much."
Yan Fugui smiled, "It's not difficult, it has nothing to do with work. "
"Well, you also know that your third aunt is getting heavier and heavier, and her nutrition is not keeping up."
"The third uncle and his family are in a bit of a difficult situation."
"I came here this time and wanted to get you some fish, meat, and vegetables. See if you can help the third uncle."
>
After saying that, Yan Fugui looked at Yang Xiaotao longingly. Yang Xiaotao picked up the wine bottle and looked at it, but it looked like a good wine. It should be home-brewed, or it might be a masterpiece mixed with water.
But being able to get benefits from Yan Fugui is a rare thing in itself.
Yang Xiaotao remained calm and had already made a calculation in his heart.
"Third uncle, you have been in this courtyard for so many years, and you can see things in the courtyard more clearly than I do."
"Today, when you come to my place, you can know what's going on outside without even looking. Watching with only one eye."
"I am here. If I give it to you, what do you think will happen next? "
Yang Xiaotao said softly, and Yan Fugui lowered his head. Of course he knew that he had gained benefits here, and there would definitely be people coming from behind. This group He knows best what kind of virtue a person has.
Sighing deeply, Yan Fugui knew what Yang Xiaotao's temper was, and he also understood that he did not have the capital to order Yang Xiaotao.
All he can do is hope that Yang Xiaotao will give him face.
"Xiao Tao. Again, the third uncle has no choice. He went fishing these days and didn't catch anything as big as a palm. There are so many mouths at home, and your third aunt wants to eat fish again. I..."
Yan Fugui opened his mouth and wanted to say something to request, but he couldn't keep his face down.
The backbone of the literati, it comes out again.
"Third uncle, if you say that, then I really can't help it."
"In our compound, each family takes care of their own family and makes a living based on their ability. No one has to help anyone."< br>
"Even if there is, it won't be me. I'm not so kind as to help someone who plots against me. , right.”
“Besides, there aren’t many things in my yard.”
Yan Fugui was blushing. He had often plotted against the Yang family, and even had trouble with the Yang family. Afterwards, in order to cater to the people in the courtyard, he followed Yi Zhonghai and others and stood against Yang Xiaotao many times.
Under such circumstances, if you still think that others can repay evil with kindness, you are really a fool.
If you think about it, he would not have such good intentions.
“Xiao Tao!”
Even so, he still didn’t give up.
If the soft one doesn’t work, try something hard.
Of course, he wouldn't know how to do it, but with the help of the "moral high ground", he was no stranger to Yi Zhonghai.
The voice suddenly became louder, and Yang Xiaotao stopped evading when he looked at him.
Yang Xiaotao heard the coldness in the words, but still sat there and didn't take it to heart.
What does he have to fear about these people?
"Xiao Tao, you are planting vegetables in the yard, and the neighbors around you are gossiping a lot."
"The third uncle has no other abilities, but he can still speak for you."
Yan Fugui said confidently, which means that I can speak for you, and I can also speak for you. Cause you trouble.
Yang Xiaotao remained motionless, as if he hadn't heard anything.
Seeing this, Yan Fugui's heart skipped a beat, this Yang Xiaotao was too soft to eat.
Finally, he gritted his teeth and said.
"In this case, Xiao Tao, the third uncle doesn't want your things in vain."
Yan Fugui thought about it in his heart and quickly made a decision.
"Third uncle, I think you are a person who likes to read. I have some books left at home from my early years. If you like them, how about I trade them with you?"
Yang Xiaotao then He raised his head with a smile, "Wouldn't it be over if you had said this earlier?"
"What kind of soft-hearted and hard-working, threatening people, we, people in the light don't tell secret words."< br>
"These things of mine didn't come from the wind. I don't know how much effort it took to get the seed money, care fees, etc."
"You're just talking about whoringing for nothing? Do you think it's appropriate?"
>
Yan Fugui was a little embarrassed, but since Yang Xiaotao relented, it meant that the deal could be done.
"Okay, you wait here, I'll go back and look for it!"
With Yang Xiaotao's consent, Yan Fugui didn't want to stay any longer, so he went out carrying the beer bottle. Walk.
Looking at Yan Fugui who didn't forget to bring a bottle of wine when he went out, Yang Xiaotao felt a little regretful whether he should make a deal with Yan Laoxi.
However, this kind of exchange can also make the people in the compound understand that if you want something, just give it in exchange. He does not accept free prostitution here.
On the other side, Yan Fugui came out of Yang Xiaotao's house and was immediately seen by interested people, who all wanted to find out something from Yan Fugui.
But as an old man, Yan Fugui kept everything in mind, kept his face calm, and walked home as soon as he left the house.
Si Zhu turned around from the crack in the door, saw He Yuyu climbing up the window, and said angrily.
"Stop looking!"
He Yuyu returned to the side, "Brother, the third uncle didn't get it."
Silly Zhu chuckled, "It goes without saying that I didn't see the wine. None. When have you ever seen the third uncle suffer?"
"This Yang Xiaotao is a Pixiu, and he doesn't spit out anything."
"No conscience, no man."
As Silly Zhu said, he was about to walk out. He promised his sister to eat fish tonight.
The first man's house, watching the third man leaving empty-handed, his face was as dark as water.
The eldest mother and Jia Zhang in the room both had gloomy faces.
"This little beast is so useless. Lao Yan even came to the door in person without giving him any face. He is going to make trouble in our compound."
Jia Zhang pointed at Yang Xiaotao's house, her triangular eyes flashing.
Aunt Ma also doesn’t understand what’s so good about Yang Xiaotao doing this. Shouldn’t neighbors help each other?
If you grow old and old, and you don’t even have anyone to help you in the future, what’s the meaning of life?
Yi Zhonghai understood Yang Xiaotao's plan, but he couldn't tell it, otherwise everyone in the compound would follow the same example and sweep away the snow in front of their door. They have always advertised that they help their neighbors, respect the old and love the young. How to achieve it?
Who will provide for him when he gets old in the future?
At this time, Yi Zhonghai only hoped that Yang Xiaotao would go too far and be stingy, and it would be best to offend everyone in the compound.
In this way, he can expel the unstable 'factor' from this compound.
It’s just that he still needs to wait and watch how Yang Xiaotao commits suicide.
It has been a month since I published the book, and I have published 200,000 words.
I asked the editor. It was originally going to be on the shelves on the 1st, but he said that this book was almost ready to be read. A Tao also blushed a little when he looked at the data.
So just continue to use love to heat up.
I hope the big guys can support me a lot, thank you A Tao.
