Chapter 18 5 pork belly
The female educated youth were so angry that a month's worth of meat was gone. It was the female educated youth who collectively paid for this small piece of pork belly. When it was cut, it was as thin as a cicada's wings, and it was just gone.
Li Xiaoyu looked at Cheng Baicha with his mouth full of oil, and became even more angry, "I don't care, we didn't agree with you to use our pork belly. You used it on your own initiative, and you must compensate us."
Cheng Baicha rolled his eyes, put down the bowl and chopsticks, and his eyes filled with tears for a second, "Sister, I'm cooking for you out of kindness, why are you being mean to me?"
He has a habit of changing the subject, that is, not talking about pork belly, but turning other people's attention to bullying.
Su Jinhua took Jinbao and sat in front of her house to watch the show. Wen Shuting went to the kitchen to cook. She saw pork, ribs, and a fish in the cabinet. She was surprised to see so much meat.
Seeing Su Jinhua sitting at the door watching the show, she shouted softly, "Xiaohua, come here and help me."
"coming."
Su Jinhua asked Jinbao not to leave the Educated Youth Home, then got up and went to the kitchen. When she saw the open cabinet and Wen Shuting's surprised face, she knew what Wen Shuting was going to ask.
"Don't worry, all the meat in the cabinet is available. I asked someone to buy it. We'll eat fish first at noon. We'll make sweet and sour pork ribs in the evening when we have time."
Su Jinhua sat in front of the stove and helped light the pot, while Wen Shuting cooked.
Wen Shuting remembered what Su Jinhua said in the morning about raising her, and then looked at the meat in the cabinet, "Xiaohua, we had agreed that you would pay for the house and I would cook. You don't have to buy so much meat next time. Buy less." Spend your money sparingly.”
"I know, I'll buy less next time." Su Jinhua responded with a smile, knowing that Wen Shuting was afraid that she would spend all the money.
The fish was braised, and the aroma dissipated immediately. Jinbao at the door was attracted by the aroma. He returned to the kitchen and watched Wen Shuting cooking, his stomach growling.
"It's almost ready. You can eat it as soon as the food comes out of the pot." Wen Shuting couldn't help laughing as she saw Jin Bao swallowing, looking cute and pitiful.
After coming over for a while, Su Jinhua brought the dishes to the table outside and closed the door. While eating, she listened to the drama outside the door. The educated young women who were married to her were still arguing.
Su Jinhua raised her eyebrows when she thought about why Mu Yunzhou didn't show up. Most people had finished their lunch now. If Mu Yunzhou was in the Educated Youth Institute, he would stand up and help Cheng Baicha now.
If you're not here at noon, what are you doing?
Su Jinhua was thinking while listening to the quarrel outside the door, and soon Mu Yunzhou's voice came from the door of the courtyard.
"What are you doing?"
Mu Yunzhou walked quickly to Cheng Baicha's body and protected him.
"You've gone too far. Why are seven or eight people standing here scolding Bai Cha?"
Seeing that Mu Yunzhou didn't know the situation, Kong Qingqing came to accuse them and was a little dissatisfied, "I shouldn't have agreed yesterday to let Cheng Baicha live in our house. It was Cheng Baicha who fried our pork belly privately, and we let her Shouldn’t I pay compensation?”
Kong Qingqing briefly explained what happened.
Hearing this, Mu Yunzhou looked at Kong Qingqing incomprehensively, "Just because of a plate of pork belly, you are scolding white tea?"
"What do you mean by scolding? What we said is not true. I told Cheng Baicha at the beginning that nothing would happen if she made compensation. It was because she didn't want to accompany her and was quarreling with us here."
Kong Qingqing looked at Mu Yunzhou with a cold face.
"White tea, it's not intentional, I'll just compensate you." Mu Yunzhou gave Kong Qingqing a happy reunion and a meat ticket.
Kong Qingqing took it and said, "This matter is settled, Cheng Baicha will move out today."
"I've already paid you all, so why are you going to the police to drive Bai Cha out? You know she's homeless, so where do you want her to live?"
Mu Yunzhou asked coldly, looking at Kong Qingqing displeasedly, as if Kong Qingqing had done something evil.
Kong Qingqing snorted coldly, "This is the residence of a female educated youth, not your home, nor Cheng Baicha's home. She shouldn't live here in the first place,"
"We were kind enough to take her in for one night. You also said last night that you would find a place for her as soon as possible. Now you want to stay in our house and not leave?"
After hearing this, the female educated youths stared at Mu Yunzhou with vigilant eyes. Yesterday, they only picked up Liu Cheng Baicha because it was too late. They unexpectedly picked up a thief, and now they are still hanging on.
Kong Qingqing looked at Mu Yunzhou suspiciously. Before, Mu Yunzhou was opinionated, knowledgeable and sensible, but until Cheng Baicha arrived, he changed his mind and favored Cheng Baicha without any distinction between right and wrong.
"I know, but I haven't found a place to live yet. Can you let Bai Cha stay with you for a few more days? I can pay your rent."
Mu Yunzhou discussed with Kong Qingqing that there are no vacant houses here, and if you want to rent a place, you have to go to town, and it will take time to rent a house.
"No, she cooked our meat on her own initiative and used it without even asking. We dare not live with such a person."
Kong Qingqing saw that Cheng Baicha was a lazy person and was unwilling to live with her. They quarreled on the first day and refused to admit her own fault.
"I told you I didn't do it on purpose. When I cook at home, I cook whatever is available in the kitchen. I forgot to ask because of habit."
Cheng Baicha hid behind Mu Yunzhou to explain, his face full of apology, his eyes only filled with indifference, and he cursed secretly in his heart.
[Wait for me, wait for me to contract with Goldfinger, and then I won’t have to worry about food. Each of me will get a piece of pork belly, and none of you female educated youths will get one. 】
"Stop pretending, who doesn't know that your meat is cooked by Aunt Cheng herself? You obviously fried our meat because you wanted to eat it, and you are still here pretending to be wronged." Kong Qingqing rolled his eyes.
Cheng Baicha was stunned, not expecting the female educated youth to know about the Cheng family's affairs.
"Mu Zhiqing, have you seen it? At this moment, you still refuse to admit it and are still trying to evade it. If I hadn't happened to hear about the Cheng family, I would have been deceived by her."
"We don't dare to let such a person live in our house. Let's take away some of her clothes and quilts now. We are afraid of being blackmailed." Kong Qingqing said with a cold face, no longer giving in.
Mu Yunzhou looked at them all with cold faces and had no choice but to let Cheng Baicha go in to collect their things.
Mu Yunzhou's stomach was rumbling. He had not eaten yet when he returned to the Educated Youth Home. Seeing that it was time to start work, Cheng Bai was kicked out and had no place to live. He saw Cheng Baicha standing pitifully in the courtyard holding a quilt. , sighed and took the quilt in her hand.
"Put the quilt in my house first. When work starts, I'll ask the village chief if there are any houses available for rent."
Cheng Baicha looked at the small courtyard separated by a wall from the female educated youth's house, "Brother Mu, you are going to work, but I have no place to rest. The educated youth sisters definitely don't want to see me, I... .”
Cheng Baicha looked at Su Jinhua's small yard and hesitated to speak, lowering his head pitifully.
