Chapter 1120: Snatching firecrackers

Nanluoguxiang

The sound of firecrackers constantly rang out in the alley, making Third Uncle feel irritable.

Third Uncle drank a mouthful of cold boiled water: "Whose prodigal son is this! Firecrackers don't cost money!"

Third Aunt, who was wrapping dumplings, thought for a while and said: "Maybe it's that kid from the Lu family, I saw him take a whole string of firecrackers from the Cao family."

Third Uncle was jealous: "A whole string of firecrackers! Cao Weiguo is quite generous!"

Everyone in the Sihe Academy knew that Lu Jin Peng had a good relationship with Cao Weiguo.

Thinking of Lu Jin Peng eating and drinking well with Cao Weiguo, and even the Lu family's old and young benefiting from it, Third Uncle didn't feel good in his heart.

The eldest daughter-in-law said while rolling dumpling skins: "If you ask me, our family should also have a good relationship with Cao Weiguo. No matter what, Cao Weiguo is a leader. Whether Jiecheng works at the Rolling Mill or not, it's never bad to have a good relationship with someone as capable and identified as Cao Weiguo. You don't know, many people want to build a relationship with Cao Weiguo but don't have the chance."

Third Uncle snorted unhappily: "Hmph! No matter what others think, I just don't like Cao Weiguo's self-righteous appearance, he has no human touch at all. I am the Third Uncle in the courtyard, and I have taken care of him quite a bit before, and Jiecheng grew up with him. Isn't this relationship close enough? But look at him! He is indifferent to Jiecheng's affairs and doesn't help at all. Isn't it because he dislikes our family for not giving him benefits? Selfish and only looking at money! What kind of thing is this!"

Hearing Third Uncle's words full of resentment, the eldest daughter-in-law stopped talking.

Is the neighbor's relationship close?

Just because they are neighbors, people have to help for free?

What kind of logic is this?

She didn't agree with Third Uncle's words in her heart, but she didn't need to argue with her father-in-law.

Just as they were talking, a shout came from outside, it sounded like the voices of Yan Jiekua and Yan Jiedi.

Third Aunt said: "It seems to be Jiekua and Jiedi?"

Third Uncle stood up: "I'll go out and see! Don't play crazy and get hit by the firecrackers, then we'll have to spend money on medicine."

The moment he opened the door, a cold wind made Third Uncle shiver.

Third Aunt shouted: "Close the door quickly, the heat in the room is all gone!"

"I know!"

Third Uncle closed the door, tightened his collar, and walked out of the gate.

Looking into the alley, he saw Cao Weiguo lighting firecrackers with a lighter.

"Zhi... crackle..."

This burst of fire and explosion made the children cheer excitedly.

Third Uncle shook his head, Cao Weiguo was a complete prodigal son.

These firecrackers are not for eating or drinking, lighting them is just for fun.

Wouldn't it be better to buy flour and eggs with the money for firecrackers?

It's really young and ignorant, only after living a few good days did he start wasting money!

Third Uncle said sourly: "Weiguo, you spent a lot of money on these firecrackers, right?"

Cao Weiguo said with a smile: "Not much, it only cost a few yuan in total."

Third Uncle: "A few yuan is not a little, it can buy several catties of meat. You, you just have money. If it were me, I would feel distressed for several days even if I bought one or two taels of meat to taste the meat."

Cao Weiguo said: "You are right! I still have to learn from you! Diligence and thrift are fine!"

During the New Year, Cao Weiguo didn't need to get angry with Third Uncle, it's better to be happy and cheerful.

Yan Jiedi ran over holding a small string of firecrackers: "Dad, look! Brother Weiguo gave me a lot of firecrackers!"

Yan Jiefang held the lit incense in one hand and the small firecrackers in the other, and threw one at Third Uncle's feet.

"Pop!"

As soon as the firecracker rang, Yan Jiekua ran away laughing.

Third Uncle: "Stinky brat! See if I don't discipline you when I get home!"

On the other side, Banggeng and Xiaodang were watching Du Fei and Liu Guangfu set off firecrackers with eager eyes.

Xiaodang pulled Banggeng's arm: "Brother! I want to set off firecrackers too!"

Banggeng said unpleasantly: "I want to too, but the money is all spent."

He stole Jia Zhangshi's pension money, and because it was the first time, he didn't take much.

Buying firecrackers, buying snacks... the money didn't last long.

After Cao Weiguo left with Third Uncle, Banggeng gritted his teeth and walked towards the tiger-headed Lu Fei.

Banggeng said arrogantly: "Scavenger! Split your firecrackers in half for me!"

Lu Fei hid the firecrackers behind his back: "No!"

No?

Then I'll take them myself!
