Just when Teacher Qian was scratching his head and ears, he suddenly saw Tongtong carrying a small steamed bun basket and heading east.

Teacher Qian was overjoyed, quickly picked up the bowl and stood up, saying excitedly: "Hey, Tongtong, you are finally here. I thought there were no steamed buns to eat this year!"

He glanced at the size of the steamed bun basket, frowned again, and said instructing: "I'm not telling you, Tongtong, your basket is a bit small, not big enough..."

Xue Yuantong gave him a strange look, turned around and walked into Chu Chu's house.

Teacher Qian's words stopped abruptly.

"It's not... you... I..." Teacher Qian stammered, unable to speak smoothly.

Depressed, he continued to drink porridge. Soon, Tongtong and Chuchu went out together and returned to the door, admiring the snowy scenery outside and enjoying steamed buns.

Teacher Qian couldn't help it anymore. He came over and asked, "Tongtong, are there no buns in my family this year?"

Xue Yuantong asked knowingly: "Do you want to eat?"

Teacher Qian: “I must want to eat it!”

Xue Yuantong snorted in his heart. He used to send steamed buns to Teacher Qian's family every year, but in return, others bullied and ridiculed orphans and widowed mothers.

She replied: "If you want to eat steamed buns, why don't you make them yourself? Don't you know how to make steamed buns?"

Teacher Qian was choked.

He is anxious!

Teacher Qian hurriedly said: "I know your steamed buns are so delicious! Aren't my family's conditions unconditional? Well, tell your mother to make some steamed buns for me, and I'll pay you according to the price!"

"The steamed buns sold in restaurants outside cost one yuan each. We are neighbors. How about you charge the cost price, 30 cents each? I will give you 10 yuan now, and you can steam 30 steamed buns for me, and you will get the remaining 1 yuan.

, it’s considered hard work!”

Even the diligent and frugal Chu Chu found it difficult to bear this price.

After hearing this, Xue Yuantong curled his lips: "Are you still alive in the Qing Dynasty?"

Xue Chuchu answered subconsciously: "The Qing Dynasty is dead."

After saying that, she felt a little embarrassed.

Teacher Qian's face straightened up and he said solemnly: "Shouldn't we, our neighbors, charge the cost price? You can't be too greedy."

After hearing this, Xue Yuantong thought for a while and said, "Teacher Qian, you are right."

Teacher Qian was stunned for a moment, and then he smiled broadly: "Okay, when you finish steaming the buns, I will get you the money!"

This trick of receiving the goods first and then giving the money really gave Xue Chuchu a lot of experience.

Xue Yuantong: "Okay, just wait for you!"

Teacher Qian went home satisfied and waited for the steamed buns to be steamed. He had spent money now. Teacher Qian told him: "I want pork stuffed buns, so make more pork buns."

Xue Yuantong: "Wait well for you!"

Tongtong ran back to the house, found Jiang Ning and her mother, and told them about Teacher Qian's request for steamed buns.

Aunt Gu has a lot of dislike for Teacher Qian. She has given her many things over the years, but she has not received any care from others in exchange for her daughter.

Aunt Gu is from the countryside, a kind-hearted woman in the traditional sense. Her study of human hearts is relatively simple, and she doesn’t have any sophisticated methods for building a good relationship. She follows the idea that if I treat you better, you will be better to me.

, it’s a pity that the river dam is not safe, and people’s hearts are sinister.

Aunt Gu: "Let him wait!"

Xue Yuantong: "Humph, that's right!"

Xue Yuantong was mostly full of two big buns. She filled a bowl of pineapple soup and ran to the door to drink. Jiang Ning joined her.

Butcher Zhang next door was sitting at the door drinking a bottle of white wine and gnawing on big bones.

In the great cold season, after drinking strong wine, Butcher Zhang shouted: "Happy!"

Wine strengthens one's courage. Butcher Zhang looked at Jiang Ning who was drinking soup next door and shouted: "Xiao Jiang, come and have some wine with your uncle!"

Xue Yuantong immediately grabbed Jiang Ning. She didn't want Jiang Ning to drink. Butcher Zhang was drunk and liked to act drunk, which was scary!

Jiang Ning waved her hand: "No."

Butcher Zhang: "Young man, what kind of man is he if he doesn't drink? Come and do it!"

Jiang Ning said: "When your family Ruyun goes on winter vacation, I will have a drink with him."

Butcher Zhang's expression changed. He drinks every day, so he naturally knows that wine is not a good thing. He will never let his son touch a sip of wine. When it comes to his only son, Butcher Zhang shouted: "Haha, you're kidding!"

He stopped inviting drinks.

Jiang Ning looked up and saw the ice on Butcher Zhang's roof.

The so-called ice slips are made when the snow on the eaves melts into water and freezes into icicles as it flows down. The vertebrae hang downward on the edge of the eaves. There are many such things in Huizhou Province in the north.

Jiang Ning reminded: "Uncle Zhang, it's time to clean up the ice on top of your head. Don't let it fall and hit you."

Butcher Zhang laughed loudly: "Can this thing hurt me?"

"You young people are so afraid of death!"

Jiang Ning made a casual stroke, and a piece of ice came off the eaves, hitting Butcher Zhang hard on the head.

The pain made Butcher Zhang scream in pain, the wine bottle was knocked over, and the big bone fell out of his hand. The big wolf dog Xiao Ben got up and ran away with the bone.
