Chapter 86: When I was young, I stole needles; when I grew up, I stole gold
"Okay then! By the way, Li Jiayi, why don't you exchange your meat tickets?"
In the opinion of the fat little black man, since Li Jiayi could exchange so many fine grain coupons, he should have no problem getting meat coupons.
"I brought meat, so I don't need to exchange it for meat and vegetable tickets." Li Jiayi patted the lunch box in his schoolbag and said.
Yes, there were no books in Li Jiayi’s schoolbag. The main reason was that after arriving at school this morning, he took out all the books and put them in his desk.
You have to know that his schoolbag is not used to carry books. As for whether it will be lost if you put it in the drawer, it basically won’t happen.
Junior high school is not like elementary school, and now that you are in junior high school, you are already quite old and have a certain sense of right and wrong.
Also, if you steal something in school, even if it's just some books, and people find out, you basically can't stay in school.
You have to know that in this era, there is zero tolerance for petty theft. Parents will teach their children from a very young age not to touch things that do not belong to them.
Parents of this era firmly believe that if a child steals needles when he is young, he will steal gold when he grows up, so they are very strict in disciplining their children.
"Okay! I was wondering why you didn't exchange your meat and vegetable tickets! Turns out you cooked them at home and brought them here."
"Ok!"
The two didn't have to wait long before Li Jiaqi arrived at the cafeteria.
"Brother, have you exchanged your meal ticket?"
"Big sister, I've already changed it. I'm just waiting for you to come over and get food together."
"Let's go then."
"Ok!"
After walking a few steps, Li Jiaqi stopped, turned his head and looked at the fat black boy and asked, "Little brother, is this your classmate?"
"Yes, his name is Guo Detie, he sits at the same table with me, you can just call him Fatty."
Hearing what Li Jiayi said, Li Jiaqi rolled his eyes at him, turned around and said, "Hello, classmate Guo Detie, my brother likes to joke, don't mind."
"It's okay, a lot of people call me that, I'm used to it." Guo Detie said indifferently.
"Uh! All right!"
There are many kinds of staple food in the canteen, including white flour steamed buns, but not much, and then there are two-grain flour steamed buns, steamed corn bread, and even a kind of black steamed corn bread.
To be honest, Li Jiayi really didn't know what this thing was made of. He couldn't even figure out what could be so black.
Of course, there is also rice.
There weren't many varieties of dishes, only one meat dish, meat and potatoes stew, the quantity was small and the meat was even smaller.
There are a lot of green vegetables, and there are quite a few of them, including cabbage, radish, potato, and some green beans.
Li Jiayi took out two aluminum lunch boxes from his schoolbag, handed one to his eldest sister, and then started queuing.
"Two ounces of rice."
"I'll give you one serving of plum beans."
Li Jiayi handed over two taels of meal tickets and a serving of vegetable tickets.
The eldest sister Li Jiaqi wanted the same thing as him, because in her eyes, her brother was a smart man and would not suffer any loss like him.
The little black fat boy asked for more: two taels of rice, two coarse grain steamed buns made of cornmeal, a portion of stewed potatoes with meat, and a portion of cabbage.
No wonder this guy is so fat, he eats a lot! I guess the meal and vegetable tickets he exchanged are only enough for him to eat for a month.
Li Jiayi did not eat in the cafeteria. After getting his meal, he returned to the classroom.
At this time, there was no one in the classroom.
"Sister, you can just sit in my seat." Li Jiayi pointed to his seat and said.
The little black fat boy, like Li Jiayi, did not sit down. He put the lunch box on the desk and prepared to eat.
At this time, Li Jiayi took out another lunch box from his schoolbag, opened it, and placed it in front of his sister.
Seeing the lunch box full of pork head, Li Jiaqi didn't react at all, because she knew very well that since her brother only ordered a portion of vegetables, he must have prepared something else.
But the little black fat boy Guo Detie was different. Looking at the lunch box full of pig head meat, he just swallowed his saliva.
"Come on, Fatty, let's eat together." Li Jiayi turned around and said to Guo Detie.
"No... no need, I ordered the food."
"Hey! Don't be polite." After saying that, he picked up some pork head with chopsticks and put it in the fat man's lunch box.
Although the fat man was greedy, he was very restrained and never took the pig's head on his own initiative. He would only eat the one that Li Jiayi picked for him.
This is the first meal I have at school, and to be honest, it feels pretty good.
After dinner, the eldest sister went back to the classroom to study, while Li Jiayi and the fat man took the lunch boxes to wash them.
Li Jiayi secretly took out his pocket watch and took a look. It was just past twelve forty, which meant there was still about half an hour before class.
At the same time, in Courtyard No. 7, Shi Datiao came out of his house with his legs crossed, looked around, and walked straight to the central courtyard.
This kid just came back from the hospital yesterday, and even when he went to school to register, it was his mother who helped him register.
Although the treatment is almost complete, he is not fully recovered yet. Look, he walks with his legs apart.
Last time when wild boar meat was distributed in the yard, his family got a lot. Although it’s not good meat, it’s still meat!
Because of his injury, most of the meat that their family got went into his stomach.
Well, maybe it was because he was picky or what, but there was no meat for lunch, which made him very uncomfortable.
If it were someone else's family, after dividing so much meat, they would definitely pickle it or make it into bacon to eat slowly!
Unexpectedly, the Shi family actually ate it all, and basically all of it was eaten by Shi Datiao.
What kind of person is Shi Datiao? He is an uneducated, lazy and greedy person. Not only that, he is also a petty thief.
He felt very uncomfortable without meat, but his current situation did not allow him to go out and steal.
Look, Shi Datiao, who never eats grass near his own backyard, has set his sights on the yard.
Many families in the yard have meat, but basically there is someone at home. Even if no one is at home, there are neighbors at home.
The only family with no one and no neighbors is Li Jia's family.
Because Li Jiayi's family lived in the East Courtyard, each family lived in one courtyard.
So, Shi Datiao came up with an idea.
Just through the moon gate in the middle courtyard, you go to the backyard, or through the moon gate in the east courtyard to enter Li Jia's house.
Of course he wouldn't go to the backyard! Because there were people in the backyard, so he went directly to Li Jia's house.
The door of Li Jia's family is locked. Even when Ying Jiasheng and the other two were the masters, their door was always locked.
Now Ying Jiasheng and his people are no longer the bosses, and basically all the houses in the yard that are empty are locked.
If it was in the front, middle and back courtyards, it would definitely be troublesome because picking the lock would definitely be seen by others.
But the East Cross Courtyard is different! Li Jiayi's family lives here, and as long as no one is at home, no one will notice what they do.
This is also the reason why Shi Datiao chose this place. To be honest, he really didn't want to choose this place! But there is no other way.
