Chapter 159 Come to the door

"What are you laughing at, you little bastard? I think you deserve to be punished."

"Old Li, what are you doing?" Aunt Tian came out of the house and asked.

"fine."

"Is Jiayi here?" Aunt Tian asked Li Jiayi with a smile.

"Yes, Auntie, I'll bring you some New Year's goods by the way." After saying that, she handed over the things in her hand.

Because they were all wrapped in oil paper, you couldn't see what they were.

Aunt Tian asked, "What is this?"

"Some pork, lard, and beef."

Auntie Tian asked in surprise: "What are these?"

"Yes."

Li Jiayi brought a lot of meat, including ten kilograms of pork belly, ten kilograms of pork fat, and five kilograms of beef.

At this time, it is definitely a great gift, especially since the Chinese New Year is coming soon.

Although she and Lao Li both had large rations, they only bought a little over five kilograms of pork for the New Year.

It's not an ordinary time now. Even if you go to borrow meat coupons from others, you won't be able to get them because everyone needs them.

"This is too much. How about you take half back? Your family will need it for the New Year!" said Aunt Tian.

Before Li Jiayi could speak, Old Li curled his lips and said, "Do you think this kid's family is missing these things?"

"Uh!"

Only then did Aunt Tian remember that every time Li Jiayi came home, he would bring some meat or something.

From this we can see that he really does not lack these.

But then again, whether they are short of food or not seems to have nothing to do with this. The New Year is coming soon, and sending so much meat at once is a huge favor.

Thinking of this, Auntie Tian turned around and looked at Lao Li and said, "Didn't you go to collect a lot of cigarette and alcohol coupons a few days ago? Go buy them and ask Jiayi to take them back to his father."

"Ah! This..."

"What? You don't agree?" Aunt Tian asked Lao Li.

"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 I do."

"Ah!" Aunt Tian turned her head and looked at Li Jiayi, as if asking if it was true.

"Auntie Tian, ​​what Lao Li said is right. I don't lack these things. As for what Lao Li has, I'd better keep it for him!"

Li Jiayi is not short of these tickets now, but he cannot buy them all at once.

At the rate he's buying now, it would probably take him at least 20 to 30 trips to finish buying.

"Okay, how about this, Auntie will give you the money." After thinking about it, Auntie Tian still felt that she couldn't take it for free.

"No need, Auntie Tian. The reason I sent these here is to wish your family a happy New Year."

"But……"

"Okay, Xiaotian, this guy is just a local rich man, he doesn't even think highly of what we have."

"This..." Aunt Tian still felt that this was not good.

After all, Li Jiayi is just a child. It is unreasonable for his family to take advantage of someone else's child.

"Auntie Tian, ​​these things are not given to you for free. I want to borrow them from you."

"Borrow someone?" Aunt Tian was a little confused and didn't understand what Li Jiayi meant.

"Yes, Auntie Tian, ​​I have quite a few tickets, and these tickets can only be used by the service club, so I want to borrow Li Jian and Li Kang to help me deliver the things I bought."

Li Jiayi had this idea on impulse. Since Aunt Tian didn't want his things for free, he would use this as repayment.

Hearing what Li Jiayi said, Old Li curled his lips. Even if others didn't know, he knew what was going on with these tickets Li Jiayi was talking about.

"Hey, this is nothing! You can always ask them for help. If they dare not go, I will let Lao Li take care of them."

Normally, if Old Li wanted to deal with Li Jian and Li Kang, Aunt Tian would definitely stop him, but today he actually said such words, so Li Jian and Li Kang would definitely not dare to refuse to help.

"Thank you Auntie Tian. I may come here more often in the days before the Chinese New Year."

"It's okay. They don't have anything to do at home anyway, so just let them follow you."

"Ok!"

Li Jiayi chatted with Old Li and Aunt Tian for a few more words, then took Li Jian and Li Kang out.

Then he went straight to the compound service center.

With the help of Li Jian and Li Kang, one purchase is equivalent to three or four times before.

For example, before, when he bought wine, he could only buy one box at a time, and then buy ten or eight cartons of cigarettes.

There's no way. He's just a teenager and taking too many things at once would arouse suspicion.

You have to know that wines of this era basically had no outer packaging. Most wines, including Moutai and Juhuabai, came in a box of twenty-four bottles.

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, and the boxes are square.

After Li Jiayi took Li Jian and Li Kang away, Old Li said, "Xiaotian! There is a lot of meat now, and there is also a lot of pork fat. I think we can fry some crispy meat while the oil is being refined."

Lao Li prefers this one. Every time he eats the crispy pork, 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 frying the crispy meat, so we didn’t fry it. Now Li Jiayi sent ten kilograms of meat at once and insisted on frying some.

"Okay, Aunt Zhang and I will go refine the oil and fry some crispy meat."

"Yeah! By the way, you should use pork when frying the crispy meat. Don't use beef. Save the beef for stir-frying!"

"it is good."

Let’s not talk about Li Jiayi taking Li Jian and Li Kang to the service center to buy things.

Let's talk about Lao Li's family first. Aunt Tian and Aunt Zhang were refining oil in the kitchen, and soon the fragrance spread out. In fact, Lao Li's family was not short of oil. During this period, Li Jiayi would bring some meat every time he came over.

The meat was eaten, but when Li Jiayi came here for the first time, he also brought ten kilograms of pork fat!
I originally planned to eat it slowly, but this time I have ten kilograms, so there is no need to be too frugal.

Although the New Year was approaching, the strong fragrance still attracted people from the compound.

The first are the neighbors on both sides of Mr. Li’s house.

The man on the left is surnamed Wu, he is in his sixties, a little older than Mr. Li, but not much older.

The man on the right is surnamed Niu and is in his sixties.

Although the two men are slightly older than Lao Li, they are of the same level, and Lao Li is even invisible and higher than them.

After all, Lao Li is the leader of the army!

"Old Li, open the door." Old Wu shouted while knocking on the door.

Soon, Lao Li came to the front door, opened it and said, "I say, you two old guys, why are you here instead of staying at home to celebrate the New Year?"

"Old Li, don't play tricks on us, do you have any connections?"

"What way? I don't understand what you are talking about!"

"Your house is producing oil."

Old Li curled his lips and said, "Isn't it normal for oil to come out? Who doesn't have oil during the Chinese New Year?"

Hearing what Lao Li said, Lao Wu and Lao Niu felt helpless and looked at each other.

Seeing this, Old Li became alert and quickly blocked the door.

But it was too late. When Lao Wu and Lao Niu looked at each other, they had already reached a consensus.

Old Wu went up and hugged Old Li, and Old Niu ran into the house and went straight to the kitchen.

"Old Wu, you bastard, just wait and see how I'll deal with you!" Old Li cursed outside.

When Lao Niu came to the kitchen, he saw a large pot of lard being boiled in the pot, and saw Aunt Zhang cutting a large piece of pork.

He was so upset that he ran out and pointed at Lao Li who was cursing and said, "Lao Li, you are such a wicked boy. You eat all by yourself!"

Lao Li pushed Lao Wu away and said, "Get lost. When did I eat alone?"

"You said you didn't eat alone. Go to the kitchen and take a look yourself." Lao Niu said, pointing in the direction of the kitchen.

"What are you looking at? What's wrong with me eating alone?" Old Li said shamelessly.

"Uh!"

Old Wu and Old Niu were stunned for a moment, but they quickly reacted and said, "Old Li, if you don't tell us the way today, we won't leave."

"Yes, we won't leave. We'll eat at your house today and continue eating until the end of the Chinese New Year."

"I say, you two are being shameless, aren't you?" Old Li said helplessly.

"You are just being shameless. Either you tell us the way, or we will stay and eat at your house."

"I really don't have any connections. This was sent to me by my nephew. I don't have any connections at all!"

"Your nephew?"

If Lao Li said something else, they would believe it, but when he said he was his nephew, no one would believe it!

Because they knew very well that Lao Li had no relatives at all, let alone any nephews.

"Yes, my nephew."

"I say, Lao Li, if you say something else, we will believe it. You said your nephew is from the same family. Ask the entire military compound, does anyone believe it?"

"Yes."

"What I said is true."

"Wait, Old Li, the nephew you are talking about, couldn't he be the kid who came here today?" asked Old Wu.

When Li Jiayi came over today, he happened to pass by his house. He was in the yard at the time and saw it.

"Yes."

"What about your nephew? Call him out so we can ask him."

"Get out, what do you want to do?" asked Lao Li.

"Hey, Old Li, since your nephew has connections, right..."

Before Old Wu could finish his words, Old Li pushed him aside and said, "Get out of my way. I'm telling you, don't even think about it."

"Old Li, this is not very honest of you."

"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 Jiayi deliver the things he bought to an alley outside the gate and then came back.

"It's okay, you two go back to the house." said Lao Li.

"Oh!" The two nodded and walked into the house.

Halfway through the walk, Li Jian turned around and said, "By the way, Dad, Jiayi said he would come over again this afternoon."

"Little bastard, didn't you hear me telling you to go into the house?"

Seeing how furious Lao Li was, Lao Wu and Lao Niu looked at each other and said quickly, "Lao Li! Since there's nothing else, let's go back first."

After saying that, the two of them walked out.

Looking at their backs, Lao Li smiled bitterly, shook his head and said, "These two old foxes."
