Chapter 103 Follow the same pattern
She didn't lower her voice on purpose. The master who was about to lie down again glanced in their direction, sneered, and then looked away.
Nowadays, buyers make demands on sellers. The master was laughing at Gu Wan for pretending to be rich.
The woman had not walked far yet. She was able to grab the last bit of meat from a little girl, and she didn't even need a ticket. This was a huge bargain for her.
She was planning to go back and show off to her little sisters, but when she heard what Gu Wan said, she immediately became unhappy.
The meat is a little dirty, but you can eat it after washing it. No one cares about this nowadays, but if someone says it in a disdainful tone, it is disgusting.
"Hey, how can you talk like that, little girl?"
Originally, she had already walked about ten steps away, but she was afraid that they couldn't hear her, so she just shouted out loud. When the people nearby saw this, they knew there was something exciting to watch, so they immediately gathered around.
"I think you guys are just saying the grapes are sour because you can't eat them. You say you don't want them, but you just can't afford them."
She glanced up and down at Gu Wan and Xu Wenyin with disdain, raised one corner of her mouth, and rolled her eyes at them.
"What's going on, big sister?"
The person next to him heard the commotion, pulled the woman's sleeve and asked quietly.
"These two women saw me buying meat. They couldn't afford it, so they were jealous and said my meat was not clean."
"Oh, this is unacceptable."
"Yes!"
"Yes Yes!"
When the woman saw that the people around her echoed her words, she became even more proud, and her chin was almost raised to the sky.
Xu Wenyin put her hands on her hips, looking like a hedgehog with its hair standing on end. “Who said we can’t afford it? It’s because you cut in line and snatched what we wanted to buy.”
The woman sneered and said, "Ask everyone, is there anyone queuing here? No, there's no one queuing. So whoever pays first will get the money, right?"
The stalls were empty at that time and there was no meat, so no one was queuing.
At that time, Gu Wan and the others had already stood in front of the stall. They never expected that the woman would just push them aside, drop the money, take the things and leave.
As for queuing, there really is no queue.
The rest of the people were buying things nearby. The stalls were neither far nor close, and some people did notice this place.
"Little girl, if you didn't buy it, then you didn't buy it. It's not nice to lie. I came in front of you and saw it when I was weighing the food over there. There was no queue at the stall here."
His words were echoed by others. It is true that there is less meat these days and there are fewer opportunities to eat meat, but who doesn't want to eat a few pieces of meat?
Everyone passing by here can't help but glance at the meat stall from time to time, so a few people actually noticed that there was no queue here.
"Yes, the meat was sold out early in the morning. There was no meat, so how could there be a queue? This lady was lucky enough to buy some. You can't slander others just because you didn't buy any. Isn't this what your parents and elders taught you?"
The woman stood in the middle of the crowd, looking at everyone with a sneer.
Gu Wan looked at her and noticed from the corner of her eye that the butcher had quietly started packing up and preparing to leave.
Gu Wan's eyes flashed with understanding. While Xu Wenyin was arguing with everyone and no one was paying attention to her, she turned half of her body to the butcher and said:
"If I'm guessing correctly, you were planning to keep the money you just received, right?"
The master who was collecting the things was stunned, swallowed, and opened his eyes wide. Seeing that her voice was relatively soft and the people around were surrounding Xu Wenyin, they did not pay attention to what she said.
He glared at her, trying to scare her: "I don't know what you are talking about. You are so young, don't dare to say anything."
He did look a bit fierce, and he didn't live in the county, so he wouldn't come here often to ask for meat or anything like that.
So he didn't take her threat seriously at all. He kept his eyes on Xu Wenyin, who was gradually speaking incoherently in the crowd, and said coldly:
"Just now those aunts said that you bought all the meat in the morning, but you were still here at noon, and you were even able to take out that little bit of meat just now."
"You have been doing this many times this morning, haven't you?"
The butcher was hit on the spot. The dark and strong man, weighing two or three hundred pounds, felt as if someone had pinched the back of his neck, making it impossible for him to use his strength.
Gu Wan is petite. Standing under the sun, her white skin is reflected. Such a delicate girl looks like a devil at this moment.
Even under the scorching sun, he felt a chill running down his spine.
At this time, if someone reported you for undermining socialism, the consequences would be very serious. At the very least, you would be criticized and demoted to a low-level position, and at the worst, you would be forced to eat peanuts.
"Did you see that girl who came with me? She is a new doctor at the city hospital. The dean is her uncle. She came here to get a promotion because she has someone above her."
Gu Wan spoke lightly, but she had no idea how much of a shadow her words had cast in the butcher's heart.
He was originally bending over to pack his things. When Gu Wan discovered what was happening to him just now, he didn't take her seriously and didn't stop his hands.
Hearing Gu Wan's words, he fell to his knees with one leg weak.
He mechanically turned his head to look at Xu Wenyin in the middle. She was wearing a clean and tidy dress, a pair of small leather shoes that looked new, and her hair was shiny black.
Looking at Gu Wan again, it was obvious that these two people were not ordinary people.
After coming to this realization, he wanted to slap himself.
"Auntie, auntie, I have an 80-year-old mother and seven or eight children to support at home. Auntie, I was wrong. I will give you all the money, please don't report me."
Reporting is scary in itself, and if someone uses some connections, then those people at home will probably have a hard time.
He was a man with a dark face and he was about to cry. The scene was really eye-catching.
Gu Wan withdrew her gaze with some disgust. In fact, she didn't know the true situation of Xu Wenyin's family at all, but when she went out, she gave herself an identity.
Besides, he already felt guilty, so did he dare to actually investigate the truth?
"This matter has nothing to do with us. You can keep the money yourself, uncle. Look, my friend was misunderstood like that..."
When the butcher heard Gu Wan calling him "Second Uncle", he didn't react for a moment, until she looked towards the noisy crowd meaningfully, and he immediately understood what she meant.
