Chapter 214 Negotiating to buy firecrackers

Hearing that Zhang Peng wanted to buy firecrackers, Zhang Tiejun agreed. In fact, Zhang Tiejun would buy some every year. Tuyi was happy during the Chinese New Year. Of course, there was also the issue of face. Zhang Tiejun wanted to buy it when he went to the market, but Wang Xiufen never wanted to buy it. Jean, her reason was that all the effort would be lost if the fart got bigger, and firecrackers were so expensive that she really couldn't bear to buy them.

"Mom, let's buy more this year. Other people are selling them, so we can't be compared to others," Zhang Peng said to Wang Xiufen with a smile.

"That's right. I told your mother to buy more, but your mother still wasn't happy." Zhang Tiejun also intervened at the right time to express his opinion.

"Why buy so much? All the effort will be gone in a while. The most we can do is listen to one sound. If we can't do it, we can just go to the village supply and marketing cooperative and buy two hanging whips, that's all." Wang Xiufen said still unmoved.

"Mom, this can't be done. Anyway, I know that Chunming's family is going to buy it, and I guess Lao Pan's family is also going to buy it this year. They put in more every year, and we can still be overwhelmed by them. Besides, We are not short of money this year," Zhang Peng continued to persuade.

"This..." After hearing Zhang Peng's words, Wang Xiufen pondered. If she bought all these, it would really be unreasonable for her family not to buy them.

Zhang Xiaoxia and Zhang Xiaolan's eyes lit up when they heard about buying firecrackers. At this time, they were all sitting around Wang Xiufen, looking at her with big eyes.

In the end, I couldn't resist Zhang Peng and Zhang Tiejun's insistence, and coupled with the looks in Zhang Xiaoxia and Zhang Xiaolan's eyes, I finally agreed. In fact, the main reason is that I have a lot of money this year. This money is not too much, and everyone is celebrating the New Year. I want to be happy.

Wang Xiufen counted out 100 yuan from the money Zhang Peng just gave him, and then took it out and gave it to Zhang Peng.

"That's it. Let's buy something good for Chunmei and her family, and then use the rest of the money to buy firecrackers," Wang Xiufen said to Zhang Peng.

"Okay, thank you, mom," Zhang Peng said with a smile, while Zhang Xiaoxia and Zhang Xiaolan, who were sitting around Wang Xiufen, had already jumped up.

"Okay, stop jumping, the kang will collapse in a moment," Wang Xiufen said to the two of them with a smile.

After collecting the money Wang Xiufen gave, Zhang Peng thought about it and estimated that Zhao Chunming would not go well, so he went out to Zhao Chunming's house. As expected, he saw Zhao Chunming and Li Cuihua still begging for the purchase. There are firecrackers.

"Mom, give me some more. This little money is enough to buy everything." Zhao Chunming was sitting on the kang, still lobbying Li Cuihua.

"Uncle, Aunt, you're busy," Zhang Peng said hello first when he entered the room.

"Xiao Peng is here, sit down first." When Li Cuihua saw Zhang Peng, she also said to him with a smile.

Zhang Peng also sat on the edge of the kang after hearing this, wanting to watch Zhao Chunming continue to perform for a while, which would be quite interesting.

"Second brother, come here, let me tell you, my mother only gave me this little money, it's not enough for anything." As he said this, Zhao Chunming opened his hand and saw the ten dollars in his hand.

"It's not enough. How much more do you want to buy? It's loud, whoosh?" Li Cuihua said to Zhao Chunming angrily, while Zhao Decai looked at Zhao Chunming with a half-smile. "Oh, that's it. Didn't I come here to ask how much our family wants to buy? If we buy less, we can just buy some at the village supply and marketing cooperative. If we buy more, we can go to the big market with me." Zhang Peng Not saying how much to buy, but using roundabout tactics.

"Ah? Are you going to the market? How much will your family buy this year?" Sure enough, Li Cuihua became interested and asked Zhang Peng.

"It's not much. My mother gave me 100 yuan, so I went to my partner's house to buy some things first. The rest of the money was said to be just like this. I guess it would be more than 50 yuan," Zhang Peng said with a smile. .

"Ah? Did your family buy so much this year?" Li Cuihua asked after hearing Zhang Peng's words.

"Well, my mother said that this year's income is good, which means that the wealth is quite prosperous. This is not only the Chinese New Year, but also a bad thing. Next year, the luck will be better. Besides, the family is not short of this little money. Everyone I want to have fun during the Chinese New Year," Zhang Peng explained to Li Cuihua with a smile. Of course, this was [-]% true and [-]% false, but he didn't lie to her. It was indeed Wang Xiufen who wanted to buy so much.

"Ah, if you say that, it does make sense." Li Cuihua seemed to be moved by Zhang Peng's words.

"That's right, Auntie. Besides, other families are letting it go, and our own family is just a little bit worse. It doesn't make sense. Why, our two families have to let other families in the village hear the noise during the Chinese New Year this year," Zhang Peng continued to persuade, while Zhao Chunming had been silent for a long time and looked at Li Cuihua expectantly.

"Well, okay, let's buy more this year, just buy it for 50 yuan." Li Cuihua thought for a while and felt that what Zhang Peng said made sense. After all, Zhang Peng's family also bought it, and the two families have always been on the same page. .

"Okay, Mom, hurry up and get the money." Zhao Chunming was very happy after hearing Li Cuihua's words, and quickly urged Li Cuihua to give him the money.

Li Cuihua rolled her eyes at Zhao Chunming, then took out 40 yuan from her pocket and handed it to Zhao Chunming. This child is not doing well. When will he grow up? Oh, I am worried.

Zhao Chunming didn't think much about it, but dragged Zhang Peng towards the west room. When he got to the west room and sat on the kang, Zhao Chunming took out Mao Zhi and gave it to Zhang Peng, and then he lay on the kang and counted the money.

"You are so promising, what's the use of this little money?" Zhang Peng looked at Zhao Chunming and was speechless. How could this child be stimulated?

"Second brother, you don't know, my mother and I have been arguing for a long time without agreeing. But as soon as you came, you agreed. This is victory," Zhao Chunming said with a smile.

"Come on, do you think my aunt agrees with what I said?" Zhang Peng said

"Ah? Isn't it?" When Zhao Chunming heard Zhang Peng's words, he also put the money in his pocket, then stood up and asked.

"Auntie is teasing you. It's nothing to do with you. When you saw me coming over, you knew I was here to talk about this matter, so you just followed my words. Otherwise, you think I am Zhuge Liang, so talkative. That's good." Zhang Peng knocked his hair and said to Zhao Chunming.

"Ah? Is that so? Why didn't I notice it?" Zhao Chunming thought for a while and said.

"What can you find?" Zhang Peng said to Zhao Chunming angrily.
"Hey, second brother, shall we go there tomorrow?" Zhao Chunming said.
"Okay, let's do it tomorrow afternoon. I have to go to my partner's house in the morning, and we'll go there in the afternoon. We won't buy anything else while riding a bicycle. It's faster this way. We'll be back in the evening," Zhang Peng said to Zhao Chunming.
When Zhao Chunming heard Zhang Peng's words, he nodded in agreement. After chatting for a while, Zhang Peng went back to prepare the things he would pick up tomorrow. He went to the supply and marketing cooperative to buy five cans of canned fruits, and then saw that there were newly made I bought a few more kilograms of big fruit, so if you don’t want to cook, you can use this as a cushion. I also bought some two kilograms of fruit candies and one kilogram of toffee. These are for Li Chunmei, she likes them better. Those who eat sweets.
By the time they got back, Wang Xiufen had already loaded up the meat, just waiting for Zhang Peng to take it away tomorrow.
