MTL - Back Off, Let Me Come-Chapter 142 : Inquiry【Ask for monthly ticket】
Chapter 142 142: Inquire about【Ask a monthly ticket】
The butcher shop is open to welcome customers as usual.
The butcher chopped a front hoof into a dozen meat pieces with a few thuds, then packed them in lotus leaves, tied them with fine hemp ropes, and paid for both. Occasionally, butcher shops can hear him haggling with customers for a few pennies or a few pieces of meat and bones, forming a jigsaw puzzle in the corner of the market.
"Arong!"
A summons came from outside the butcher shop.
The butcher's chubby son suddenly raised his head, dropped the boning knife with a bang, and ran towards the person at a trot, shouting, "Teacher, why are you here?"
The butcher knew who this person was without even looking. He stared angrily with his big copper bell eyes and yelled viciously, "You old man, where have you been these few days? You don't even say hello to anyone when you leave. Where did you die, who will collect your body?"
The chubby guy wanted to hug Chu Yao, but he was helping out at the butcher shop today. His hands were covered in animal oil and blood. He stretched out his hands halfway before realizing something was wrong. He smiled and put his hands on the hem of his clothes. Wipe back and forth, wipe the oil all over.
This scene made the butcher heartbroken and angry.
Bird to his son, he corrected his disrespectful words very seriously, to build up morals and respect teachers. The butcher had no choice but to curse and say: "You prodigal bastard, you just ruined the new clothes your mother gave you? You're tired of your job—"
After finishing speaking, he raised the big palm of the cattail fan that didn't hold a knife.
When the little chubby Duner saw this gesture, his **** hurt subconsciously, and he quickly hid behind Chu Yao, wishing to cover himself tightly, and the butcher became even more angry. Chu Yao persuaded with a funny face, and the butcher said angrily: "This little **** has learned a few words from you, and has been 'teacher long' and 'teacher short' all day long. He looks like a cub raised for you! I fight every day. Who are you working for?"
Chu Yao smiled and said: "This shows that Ah Rong is filial and courteous, and he treats his teachers like this, let alone his parents? What's wrong with that?"
The young Chu Yao may not be able to bear the slurs such as "old stuff" and "old guy", but now he has been at the bottom of Xiaocheng for so many years, and some edges and corners have long been smoothed out.
He is acquainted with these neighbors, and he knows that there is something wrong with their mouths, and their vulgar speech is not pleasant.
Just forget it by ear.
The butcher couldn't get used to Chu Yao's words, he only knew that they were good words, so he softened his attitude and lowered his voice to care about Chu Yao's whereabouts these days. During the time when Chu Yao was gone, this bully-like kid in his family was about to make him die.
Chu Yao replied: "I moved to another place with the new owner's house."
The butcher began to look at Chu Yao carefully, and suddenly found that the old thing that was always quiet on weekdays had changed. Although the clothes are still white from starch washing, they are clean and without patches. The most important thing is the mental outlook. After sweeping away the dead silence and ashes between the eyebrows in the past, it seems that even the body is straighter than before, and a few years younger.
Looking at this appearance, the butcher knew that Chu Yao's life in the new owner's house was much better than in Yuehua Building, and he was faintly happy for him.
Butcher: "In that case, my son..."
He originally wanted to say that there is no need to teach him. He was greedy for cheap before, and seeing that Chu Yao was pitiful, he wanted to help him, so he proposed to let Chu Yao enlighten his son. Now that Chu Yao has changed his master's house and moved to another place, he probably doesn't have the extra energy to take care of his son.
He turned around and spent more money to send his son to other private schools.
Thinking of this, the butcher's distressed face trembled slightly.
The gentleman from that private school is younger than Chu Yao, but more pedantic, rigid and old-fashioned than him. He keeps his mouth open and shuts up, and likes to put on airs of a scholar. If a family from a poor family wants to send their children to school, his face will grow long. It is "unworthy" inside and out. The poorer the student is, the less merciless the Bandha practice will be.
Coincidentally, the butcher is the one he despises the most.
I can almost imagine how long that pedantic and lifeless face would stretch if I came to ask for a place to study.
Who knows, Chu Yao said to let his son continue to read along.
The butcher was naturally happy, but he still asked, "Your master agrees?"
Chu Yao said: "A new student was accepted two days ago, one is to be taken, and the two are also taken, so we can take it together. It's just that things are a little busy, and we need to come every once in a while. Ah Rong must work hard and not slack off. Be lazy and lose to your junior sister."
The chubby dun'er's surname is Tu Mingrong.
This serious name was given by Chu Yao.
The previous nickname was Dashuan, Tu Dashuan.
(*ΦωΦ*)
The butcher was startled when he heard this: "Is she still a girl?"
Chu Yao said: "Although she is a girl, she is really talented."
The butcher felt the novelty, raised his cattail fan and slapped his son on the back of the head, staring at him and threatening him to study hard and not be lazy.
The little chubby shrunk his neck, puffed out his cheeks and snorted, then hid behind Chu Yao in a flash, looking at the teacher with blinking eyes, expecting him to teach new content. Unexpectedly, Chu Yao didn't come to teach him this time, but to inquire about some news.
Inquire about news from several families.
It is said to be inquiring, but in fact it is when chatting, quietly leading the topic of gossip to those few households.
This butcher shop is a "time-honored brand" that has been passed down for three generations. It never sells rotten meat and smelly meat. ", the gossip of each family can be said for a paragraph.
The butcher is not a careful person, so naturally he has no doubts, and he himself is still a big speaker who can't hold back his words. After the gossip chat started, I couldn't stop the car. I talked for a long time with satisfaction, including the key information that Chu Yao wanted to know.
Speaking of which, Chu Yao didn't ask anything. He just gave an opening—"When I came here, I saw an old man who looked like X's family carrying a few catties of meat, his face was full of red. Could it be that the old man's youngest son is about to have a happy event", and the butcher left the rest to his free play.
The old man is also a "celebrity" in the neighborhood. He is stingy, loves to take advantage of small things, brags, almost beats to death the woman who gave birth to three daughters in a row, and squeezes the three daughters in the family to raise two precious sons. It is so serious that the neighbors can't stand it. Degree.
The eldest son is a street player who loves to gamble, while the younger son is a bit lucky to be successful. As we all know, that's a fat job. It's just that he was old when he joined the job, and stealing Kuyin requires boyhood skills, so the family's situation has not improved much.
Chu Yao asked this, first to open up the chatterbox, and second, to test the current situation of his youngest son through the old man who didn't keep a close eye on the door. It is not something that can be done in a day or two to check and load the tax bank. In order to make the people below do their best, the people above will not only warn them, but also reward and appease them.
If the family suddenly has a small fortune, and the family prepares dry food and clothes for the youngest son, it means that the date is approaching.
Worried that the child was not in the **** team, Chu Yao was going to inquire about a few more.
