Third Uncle's house.
"Dad, where are the peanuts we bought last time? Take them out and share some.”
Yan Jiefang asked expectantly.
After dinner, the family did not go out. They stayed in the house and listened to the crosstalk on the radio, waiting for Third Uncle to distribute some snacks.
Their third son and daughter used to be supported by Third Master alone. Now that Yan Jiecheng had started working, they had a salary.
After all, she was only a primary school language teacher with a monthly salary of 66.5 yuan (fabricated, not mentioned in the drama, but it should not be much different from Liu Haizhong). It was not easy to raise a large family. She also had to provide for the children to go to school. She was gentle and did not beat or scold the children.
Moreover, according to Third Uncle's personality, he had to calculate every penny carefully. Every time he bought food, he had to calculate it one by one. The four children were equally divided.
Usually, he was a little stingy, but in recent years, if he did not have that shrewdness, the third uncle's family would not be so peaceful. He could be considered to be one of the best families in the courtyard.
Otherwise, he wouldn't have gotten Yu Li's beautiful daughter-in-law.
From Yi Yongqing's point of view, Third Master treated his children quite well.
After all, Third Uncle only had this ability. He still had the idea of preparing for famine. He would save a sum of money every month. If there was any change or big expenses, it would come in handy.
Third Uncle had done something wrong to Silly Zhu. He had cheated Silly Zhu of his benefits, but he did not help. He even did something bad. However, he definitely did not do anything wrong to his four children.
He was indebted to Yan Jiecheng for raising him, but Yan Jiecheng had opened a restaurant. If his mother went to help, he wouldn't even be able to eat a single dish. He Yuzhu couldn't stand it anymore. A few yuan a month was worse than hiring workers.
The Yan brothers had only learned Third Master's stinginess, but they were rarely grateful.
"Old man, take it out and share it.”
Third Aunt said.
"Then let's split a little. Each person has a shovel, not much to eat!”
Third Uncle brought over an porcelain washbasin. There were some cooked peanuts that he had bought. They were about a few kilograms. He took a small spatula and distributed snacks to the family.
In this day and age, those who had snacks were really not bad. Many people did not even have enough to eat, right?
"Hey, hey, wait a minute. Don't eat it first, lest Dad gives it out unfairly!”
Yan Jiecheng was the first to be assigned. He was about to start eating when Yan Jiefang hurriedly stopped him.
"Yes, yes. Dad, be fair!”
Yan Jiecheng stopped and said.
"If I'm not fair, there won't be a fair person in this world!”
Third Uncle said.
"Aiya, Dad, why did you give an empty shell to another one?”
The third son, Yan Jiekuang, pinched the empty shell of a peanut and hurriedly said.
"Come, come, come, I'll change it for you!”
Third Uncle smiled. It had to be fair, right?
When it was Yan Jiefang's turn, the monkey spirit would snatch a few more from this kid.
"Don't take too much, you're breaking the rules!”
Everyone in the room was indignant.
"Hey, hey, I'll find two more for each of you!”
Yan Bugui said helplessly.
They didn't get much peanuts in the house, probably less than a catty in total. However, the whole family was still happy. There were snacks to eat, and many people were envious.
After distributing the peanuts, Yan Bugui put the basin away and secretly took out a small cloth bag to put some peanuts into it.
Just as she was about to go out, she was discovered by the people in the house.
"Hey, Dad, why are you eating it secretly?”
Yan Jiefang was the first to speak. He was the most greedy, but he had been staring at it.
"That's right, give us some. You can take so much for yourself!”
Yan Jiecheng also chimed in.
"Hey, hey, did I buy these peanuts?”
"What's wrong with me eating my own?"
"Why don't you guys buy it yourself!"
Yan Bugui sighed and thought, Aiya, what bad luck. These days are really hard to calculate. These peanuts are enough, right? Then Yi Yongqing will have to tell me the second half of the couplet.
……
Yi Yongqing's house.
"What nonsense are you talking about? Your mother and I will be at ease if you are honest and safe. We're all afraid that you'll cause trouble if you don't behave properly all day.”
Yi Zhonghai said with a stern face.
"That can't be. I'm so obedient. How can I cause trouble?”
Yi Yongqing said cheekily.
"My good grandson is very obedient. He knows how to torment others. In the future, he will grow up to be a capable person.”
The Deaf Old Lady spoke up for him.
"Madam, you're still the most accurate. I'll get you some watermelons later!”
Yi Yongqing said with a smile.
"Eat your food, you bastard!"
the adoptive mother said unhappily.
……
After dinner, his adoptive father went for a walk, his adoptive mother packed up the cutlery, and Yi Yongqing took a few fruits and was about to chat with He Yushui.
Coincidentally, Lou Xiao'e came over.
"Auntie, have you just eaten? Is your Yongqing back?"
Lou Xiao'e asked with a smile as she entered the door with something in her hand.
"Xiao'e, why are you looking for him?"
the adoptive mother asked curiously.
"I brought some snacks for you, First Uncle, and Yongqing. They were all brought over from home. They're not worth much. I want to ask Yongqing for something.”
"I won't hide it from you. My parents heard that He Yuzhu and Shazhu's culinary skills are not bad and wanted to invite him to cook a meal.”
"Well, I just wanted to ask Yongqing to help me talk about it. It's not good for me to go over.”
Lou Xiao'e explained and placed the wrapped snacks on the table in the central room. There were quite a lot of them, at least a few kilograms.
