Chapter 29 The Butcher
The next morning, after dinner, Huo Haocheng took Ruan Ruan and Huo Haoshen into the city on the village tractor.
As soon as they got off the bus, the three of them headed straight for the food station.
But when they arrived, there was already a long queue. Huo Haocheng asked his brother to help queue up first, and took Ruan Ruan to a place with fewer people to rest.
"Sister, you should take a rest here first. There are too many people over there and they will squeeze you."
At this time, Ruan Ruan saw relatively strong old ladies and women queuing up, chatting in groups of three or five, and moving step by step towards the entrance of the non-staple food store. Not far from the long queue, there were the sounds of children playing in twos and threes, and young women like her were waiting for their families in the crowd. Occasionally, there were a few middle-aged men walking in a hurry, probably because they were about to be late for work.
Ruan Ruan had never seen such a scene before, so now this scene seemed to her to be full of life and happiness.
Huo Haocheng, who had been paying attention to Ruan Ruan, saw her suddenly smile. He wondered if she saw something happy.
"What are you looking at, sister?"
"Brother, you see, although they are all trying to make a living, only people like this are alive."
Huo Haocheng took a look at the scene in front of him and was a little confused. He didn't understand why Ruan Ruan suddenly made such a statement.
By the time it was their turn, there wasn't much meat left. There were only a few ribs, two big bones, and a few pounds of not-so-good lean meat.
"Boss, how much are you selling these ribs?"
"Pork ribs are 5 cents, about 5 pounds. If you want them, I'll charge you yuan, no ticket required."
"Where's this big bone?"
The bones were removed cleanly, without any meat.
"If you want it, I'll give it to you."
The boss stuck his head out to look, and saw that there was no one queuing, so he just gave it to them.
There were people queuing before, but when they saw that there was no meat left, they just left without wasting time.
"Then boss, we want the spareribs. Could you please pack them for us? Thank you."
When the boss turned around to take the bag, Ruan Ruan saw a pig's head on the ground where the bag was placed.
"Boss, do you want to sell your pig's head?"
After the boss packed the ribs and bones, he turned around and looked at the pig head on the ground, then turned around and looked at Ruan Ruan. Seeing that she was a little girl, he asked the two brothers Huo Haocheng:
"You want this pig's head?"
No one has ever bought pig heads. Every time they buy the meat, they deal with it themselves. Now the little girl wants to buy it? The two big men next to them kept talking, which made the boss have some opinions about Huo Haocheng and the others.
"Our daughter-in-law is the head of the family"
"Our sister-in-law has the final say"
The two brothers understood what the boss meant and responded at the same time.
"A good man"
The boss smiled knowingly when he heard their answer, and then said to Ruan Ruan
"If you want this, just give me one dollar."
"Okay, thank you uncle"
After hearing that the boss gave her such a low price, Ruan Ruan started to get close to him.
"Hahaha, the little girl is so sweet."
After that, the boss handed over the things Ruan Ruan bought. Huo Haoshen took them. Huo Haocheng stepped forward, gave the money, and also handed the boss a cigarette.
"Uncle, can I trouble you with something?"
The boss took the cigarette and lit it with the lighter in Huo Haocheng's hand.
"Go ahead, for the sake of the girl, as long as it's not excessive, I will definitely help if I can."
In fact, that's what he said, but the boss could see that the young man in front of him was the one with real ability. However, there are not many people who are capable and love their wives. He himself loves his wife, so as long as it's not excessive, he is still willing to make friends with the person in front of him.
"It's like this, our wedding is coming up in a few days, I want to ask you, uncle, if you can reserve some meat for us on that day."
"Oh, getting married! How much does it cost to prepare?"
"I'd like a whole pig if I can. Is that okay with you?"
A wedding doesn't require so much money, but Huo Haocheng thought that he was away from home all year round and had little chance to prepare food for the family. He usually didn't have many meat coupons to buy meat, so he wanted to take this opportunity to see if he could prepare more. Besides, his second brother was also getting married, so he could use some of the money then.
"oh....."
Nowadays, it is hard to find someone who buys a whole pig at once. Even if they are officials in the city, they would only ask for a few dozen pounds at most.
This also made the boss look at Huo Haocheng a few more times, and said to Ruan Ruan
"Girl, you have good taste"
"I don't want any bad ones, after all, I am so popular."
Ruan Ruan held her chin with both hands, responded to the boss's words, and even winked playfully.
"Ha ha......."
The boss was really touched by Ruan Ruan’s cuteness. At the same time, he also thought of his lovely daughter, who liked to hug his thighs and act coquettishly.
"Come with me"
As he spoke, the boss took the remaining lean meat in his hand, closed the door, and led Huo Haocheng and the other two through the alley behind the food store to a relatively dilapidated courtyard.
