Chapter 808 Drawing cakes out of thin air(1/2)
"This...is this your money?"
Hu Zongming was dumbfounded for a moment, in disbelief. In the next moment, he frowned and stared at the beggar with suspicious eyes. He obviously did not believe that it was his money. He was worried in his heart, worried whether the half a tael of silver next to the steamer was the silver he had stolen.
.
Hu Zongming's suspicion is not unreasonable.
Even if a beggar meets a kind person, he will only throw a few coins or give him something to eat. No one will be generous and throw away half a tael of silver.
Even if you meet a rich member of staff, this is no exception.
Half a tael of silver is half a month's expenses for their family, unless...unless it's a good person in the house.
Hu Zongming thought of someone in a daze.

But as soon as this thought occurred, he immediately shook his head.
Because that kind person has now disappeared.
Damn traitors, crazy and damned things, they will all be taken away by God sooner or later.
Thinking of this, Hu Zongming did not forget to curse in his heart the traitor who caused all the consequences.
"What's going on with this money?"
Hu Zongming asked again.
Hearing Hu Zongming's muttering, the beggar's dirty face suddenly smiled. The smile was slightly stiff, as if the beggar's face was not used to this smile, and it was not so pretty.
With a smile, he said politely, "Boss, this is the silver rewarded by a kindhearted person. It was not stolen. Don't worry."
"That's...okay!"
Although Hu Zongming still had doubts in his heart, he did not hesitate anymore. He nodded and said with some uncertainty, "Do you really want to buy twenty meat buns?"

Seeing the emaciated beggar asking for twenty meat buns at once, I couldn't help but worry a little. It would be a pity if he couldn't finish the food and the leftovers would spoil in the end. After all, the weather is still quite hot.
It can definitely be stored until night.
Moreover, half a tael of silver is enough for him to live alone for half a year, so there is no need to buy so many buns at once.
Of course, Hu Zongming actually asked this mainly for other reasons. He was worried that the beggar would buy so many meat buns at once in order to repay his kindness during this period.
If so, it's completely unnecessary.
However, the beggar nodded seriously and said, "Yes, I want twenty meat buns."
Hu Zongming frowned slightly and said solemnly, "Beggar, I'm not talking about you. Even if your skin and bones are cut open, your skinny belly will not let go of so many buns."
Then he thought about it and discussed, "How about this? You buy five first, and then come over and buy them after you finish eating. Do you think that's okay?"
The beggar shook his head stubbornly.
"Hu Laoer, what are you doing?"
At this moment, a roar came from behind Hu Zongming, causing him to tremble and reveal a horrified expression. In the blink of an eye, a strong woman walked up.

Speaking of strong women, most of them are big and thick-waisted, with vicious looks and a voice like a thunder god. However, the woman in front of me, although she is menacing and has her hands on her hips, is a bit thin.
Yes, he is thin. He gives the impression that he is thin and looks a little malnourished. He is not as fat as Hu Zongming.
It stands to reason that such a thin person has nothing to do with being tough. The reason is that she has an extremely bad temper and is very fierce. Not only is she fierce outside, she is also arrogant at home.
At this moment, he was holding his hands on his hips, holding his head high and glaring angrily.
"Okay, you idiot, while I'm not here, you are so kind and want to give this stinky beggar some steamed buns, right?"
"You bastard, you're so tired of living. You've had nothing to eat at home, but you're showing mercy and giving free steamed buns to outsiders. You can't get over it."
"After all these years, I haven't had enough money. There are two old men on top to support me, and the two dry mouths on the bottom are open. Your brothers are rich, why don't you let the two old men go to other people's places to be happy? You have to ask for help.
It's a tight life at our house."
"Look at your lumpy appearance. You look like a man there. You don't want anything. I was really blind when I married you. If it weren't for the big thing under you, you could serve me comfortably at night. You would be so happy by now."
I have long since reconciled with you."
"Useless things!"
"I finally scraped together a few things and managed to build a bun shop. I thought I could have a good meal with you. Now I'm done. I haven't even paid enough for the bun shop, so you're going to give this stinky beggar a free meal."

The woman then looked at the beggar and said angrily, "Eat, eat hard, I will eat you to death one day."
"You have hands and feet, but you don't do anything. You know how to beg on the street every day. If you have this ability, you won't carry sandbags. If you have the ability, you don't know how to harm other people's families. You just know how to bully... bully our family, bully
Our Hu Laoer has a good temper, right?"
As she spoke, the woman suddenly began to sob softly.
When Hu Zongming heard the cry, he stood up in a hurry, patted the woman's back gently with his big hand, and whispered softly and comfortingly, "My child, don't cry, don't cry..."
"I cried. Which of your eyes saw me crying?"
"Blinded your dog's eyes."
Hu Zongming raised his hands, making a gesture of admitting his mistake, and coaxed her, "Okay, okay, it's my fault. I was blind. Don't be angry. Besides, things are not what you think."
"Hey, it's not what I think, it's like that. You heartless thing. Everyone in the family is waiting for you to earn rations to fill your stomach. It's good for you. You haven't eaten enough, but you have become a Bodhisattva.
Do you have that ability?"
The woman chattered endlessly. Hu Zongming felt a headache. He closed his eyes helplessly and begged, "Okay, stop arguing..."
Hu Zongming's original intention was to wait for her to calm down and then explain to her that the beggar came today and did not intend to eat for free. Unexpectedly, as soon as he opened his mouth, he directly angered her.

"Okay, Hu Laoer, how dare you hurt me?"
"How dare you hurt me?"
"See if I don't beat you to death..."
The woman said, clenching her fist and hitting Hu Zongming.
The beggar looked at the scene in front of him and was a little at a loss. He knew that the woman was so unreasonable because of him. If he didn't come here often to get steamed buns, she wouldn't be like this.
Thinking of this, he felt guilty and said softly, "That, boss, I won't buy it."
The beggar said this not because he really didn't want to buy it, but because he didn't want to embarrass Hu Zongming. He planned to leave first and then come back to buy it after the woman left.
"purchase?"
When the woman heard the word "buy", she was stunned for a moment, turned her head and asked, "What did you just say? What do you want to buy?"
"You are a beggar, where do you get your money?"

"Damn it, is this a good thing you did?"
The woman thought that her man felt sorry for the beggar, so he not only gave him steamed buns to eat, but also gave him money, and she suddenly became anxious.
"Okay, you dare to give money... Bah!"
"My child, it's not what you think."
The moment the woman paused, Hu Zongming quickly explained, because he knew that if he didn't explain, there would be endless trouble.
Then he pointed at the beggar and said, "It's him, he wants to buy buns."
"Buying buns?"
"hehe…"
After hearing this, the woman was slightly startled, then sneered, her face not concealing her ridicule towards the beggar. She glanced at Hu Zongming, then pointed at the beggar, "You said he, a beggar, buys steamed buns or meat buns?"
"It's so funny that a beggar comes to buy meat buns, hahaha... Does he have the money?"

The more the woman talked, the more she wanted to laugh and burst into laughter.
"If he had money, why would he be a beggar?"
Hu Zongming pursed his lips and said with his eyes, "Isn't that money on the table?"
After hearing this, the woman immediately lowered her head and looked down. When she found that there was really money on the side of the bun steamer, and there was quite a lot of it, her heart skipped a beat and she opened her mouth, looking extremely shocked.
That's right, it's not copper coins, it's silver.
White flowers of silver.
Although it's not much, it's at least half a tael.
With half a tael of silver, their family could live for several months without any problem.
