Chapter 16 Pushing the envelope(1/2)

"My dear son, give Mom a bite." Hu Ling smelled the fragrance and her mouth watered, and said, "Is it delicious? Let Mom have a taste."

"Mom, I don't even have enough to eat!" Ma Jie finished the last bite, clapped his hands and said, "It's gone."

Because Ma Wei came back from begging for a bun.

Hu Ling didn't make things difficult for her anymore.

I just blame her for not asking for more.

Afternoon, break between classes.

Ma Wei brought Tang Xiaofeng, the monitor of the second grade (1) class.

At the same time, Tang Xiaofeng handed over the money received from fifty people, a total of two and a half yuan, to Yi Chun.

There are only fifty people in their class.

"Good job!" Yi Chun waited for Tang Xiaofeng to go away and said to Ma Wei.

"Then my buns." Ma Wei looked at Yi Chun eagerly.

"Don't worry, I will do what I say. You go to Tang Xiaofeng to get it every morning, and remember to finish eating before leaving!" Yi Chun said.

Today, the three classes in the first grade of junior high school have already handed over the money for tomorrow's buns to Yi Chun early.

The "big one" still has two buns, and everyone else has one bun each.

Two hundred and five buns in total!

Yi Chun put the money in his schoolbag.

The last class is physical education.

Yi Chun asked for leave again

He had to go to the grain store quickly to buy flour. If he was late, the grain store would be closed.

He arrived at the grain store.

An uncle is sitting inside reading the newspaper.

"Uncle, do you have any flour?" Yi Chun asked.

"Yes. Those with food stamps are 8 cents per kilogram, and those without food stamps are 10 cents per kilogram." The uncle looked up and said, "Are you the second eldest child in Teacher Yi's family?"

"Uncle, how do you know?" Yi Chun scratched his head: "Why don't I have any impression at all?"

"My surname is Chen. My son is now a student of Teacher Yi. I have been to your house. Maybe you were busy doing homework and didn't pay attention." Uncle Chen said.

"How much do you want to buy? I'll deliver it to you on my bicycle after get off work." Uncle Chen said.

Yi Chun took out the money, one cent for one cent, five cents for a total of five yuan, and said: "Uncle Chen, I want fifty kilograms. Please help me deliver it after get off work."

Uncle Chen was surprised: "Are you sure it's fifty kilograms? Not five kilograms? Can you finish it?"

Yi Chun smiled: "It was a boss who asked me to buy it for him."

"Then you go back first and I'll deliver it after get off work." Uncle Chen said.

"Thank you, uncle." Yi Chun thought that he was very happy that he didn't have to carry it.

Approaching the door of his house, Yi Chun looked around and saw no one around, then quickly entered the space and picked up a bag of bean flour, ten kilograms of flour and a bag of saccharin.

"Mom, open the door quickly." Yi Chun shouted with her schoolbag on her back, flour on her shoulders, and bean flour and saccharin in her hands.

"Here it comes, here it comes." Wang Lan smiled, opened the door, and took the soy flour and saccharin.

Yi Chun puts the flour in the kitchen.

"Mom, one dollar and a half, your wages today." He took out a dollar and a half from his schoolbag and handed it to Wang Lan.

Wang Lan happily took the money: "Isn't this a dream? You made a dollar and a half in such a short time?"

Yi Chun looked at Wang Lan and said with a smile: "I am so happy for only 1.5 yuan. I will make 20 kilograms of flour tomorrow morning for 3 yuan!"

Wang Lan laughed loudly: "I make much more than your father now. Moreover, we have steamed buns to eat every day!"

"There's not enough flour, you only have ten kilograms." Wang Land said.

"Oh, I can't carry it. Uncle Chen will bring it later, and there are fifty kilograms." Yi Chun said.

"If you can't carry this child, just ask us to go." Wang Lan complained.

Yi Chun giggled.

After a while, Uncle Chen arrived with fifty kilograms of flour on his back and bicycle.

Wang Lan said gratefully: "Thank you, Lao Chen! Let's finish our meal here before leaving."

Uncle Chen unloaded the flour and put it in the kitchen: "I have to go back and cook quickly. Sister-in-law, I'm leaving."

At this time, Yi Chun had already taken the time to go to the space to get two green vegetables: "Uncle Chen, thank you. This is a gift from someone else. I want you to try it."

Uncle Chen laughed, happily put the vegetables in his bag.

Then, he got on his bicycle and left.

After dinner.

Yi Chun returned to the bedroom.

A flash.

Enter the space.

Cabbage, green vegetables are already so big.

So much, I can’t finish it.

Peppers and eggplants have bloomed.

Cucumbers and loofahs have climbed all over the shelves and bloomed many flowers.

Yi Chun is so happy.

It looks like there will be cucumbers and loofahs to eat tomorrow.

Yi Chun got a bucket of well water and started watering the vegetables.

"Yi Chun, Yi Chun, come and take a bath quickly." Wang Lan's voice came.

"Coming!" Yi Chun hurriedly came out of the space.

"The weather is hot, so I boiled a large pot of water. You go and wash it quickly. There is not enough hot water, so I continue to boil it. Our whole family has a great time washing today!" Wang Lan said.

Since I moved to a new home, I have a big bathtub.

It's hot, so Yichun's family takes a bath almost every day.

The only thing that makes Yi Chun miserable is that every day he has to go to Teacher Li's house next door to borrow a pole and two buckets and go to the river to fetch water.

I really miss the tap water in future generations.

Another good night's sleep.

Yi Zhengshun and Wang Lan got up early.

Twenty kilograms of flour were kneaded.

The buns are out of the cage!

Three hundred red bean paste buns, two hundred and ninety in two baskets.

Save ten for yourself.

Yi Chun and Yi Qiu hurried to school carrying baskets on their backs.

Yi Qiu is responsible for distributing buns to the first and third classes.

Yi Chun went to the second day of junior high school (1) and counted fifty-one to Tang Xiaofeng, telling her that one of them belonged to Ma Wei.

There were more than 80 people left in the basket, so Yi Chun shamelessly went to class 2 of the second grade of junior high school.

After a while, there were only about thirty people left, and he went to Class 3 of the second grade of junior high school again.

Sold out immediately.

Yi Chun said to the students in the two classes separately: "If you want to eat, you can register with the class monitor and pay five cents. Give it to me before school in the afternoon, and I will bring it to you tomorrow morning."

After some operations, I actually received a total of 290 buns from six classes.

Tomorrow’s pre-order quantity of steamed buns has been released.

Ma Wei quietly went to find Tang Xiaofeng and happily ate red bean paste buns.

At noon, Ma Wei went to Yi Chun's house again.

I'll be back soon this time.

Hu Ling was very angry when she saw Ma Jie eating with gusto.

So, she ran to the door of Yi Chun's house and yelled: "You stingy Yi Chun, what's wrong with giving you a few extra buns? It can kill people!"

Wang Lan was so angry that her whole body trembled: "Who are you? I gave you a bun to eat, and you became an enemy after eating it. If I had known this, I wouldn't have given it to you even if I fed it to the dogs!"
