Courtyard Houses: Starting as a Purchasing Agent

"Damn Liu Aiguo..."

Jia Zhangshi, standing nearby, muttered a curse under her breath.

She didn't blame Xu Damao, after all, they had stolen Xu Damao's chicken, but she blamed it all on Liu Aiguo.

why?

Because if Liu Aiguo hadn't asked for ten yuan to buy chicken, would they have lost ten yuan?

"Hmph..." Madam Jia huffed angrily, expressing her dissatisfaction.

Xu Damao took the money and left, not forgetting to say to everyone as he went: "Everyone... from now on, every household will have to lock their doors... there's a thief in our yard!"

Qin Huairu and Jia Zhangshi could only lower their heads and tremble.

Dare not say a word.

Just then, Liu Aiguo went out.

"Wait, wait..." Liu Aiguo called out to Jia Zhangshi, "Grandma Jia... don't go!"

"I have something to talk to you about!"

Swish!

All eyes turned to Liu Aiguo.

Liu Aiguo said, "I was on a nice blind date today, having dinner with the girl, and you accused me of stealing chickens and ruining my reputation... Now the girl doesn't want to date me anymore... What do you suggest we do?"

"What?"

A smug glint flashed in Jia Zhangshi's thick, triangular eyes: "What does it have to do with me if she doesn't want to be with you anymore? I've already said I was wrong..."

"fart!"

Liu Aiguo said, "You clearly said before that you saw it clearly..."

"What do you want?" Qin Huairu knew that this matter could not be resolved peacefully today.

Liu Aiguo held out his hand: "Pay me back... Give me twenty yuan. I've lost a blind date opportunity. Twenty yuan isn't much!"

"puff……"

Qin Huairu spat out a mouthful of blood: Damn it...

Twenty dollars?

Why don't you just die?!

Jia Zhangshi jumped up a foot high in anger: "Liu Aiguo...do you have no conscience at all?"

"Yes!" Liu Aiguo shrugged and said, "But you, Granny Jia, how dare you ask me if I have a conscience? When you were accusing me of stealing chickens while crying 'stop thief,' did you have a conscience then?"

"When you encouraged your grandson to steal eggs from my house, did you have any conscience?"

Liu Aiguo's two sentences left Jia Zhangshi speechless.

Qin Huairu said, "No... twenty yuan is too much... I'm the only one in my family who works, where am I going to get the money?"

Liu Aiguo said, "Don't try to play the poor card in front of me. I know your family well... When Dongxu was injured, the factory gave him a lot of compensation for work-related injuries, didn't it?"

"You'll be broke?"

"Fine... it's okay if you don't want to give it... I'll go to the police station to report it and let the officers uphold justice!"

puff……

Jia Zhangshi and Qin Huairu vomited blood again.

What the hell!

When the police arrive, they'll just take our dog away anyway.

I……

"Okay... I'll pay!"

Qin Huairu gritted her teeth, her eyes brimming with tears as she looked at the three old men. Seeing that they all avoided her gaze, she then looked at He Yuzhu beside her.

"Silly Zhu...can you lend me some money?"

When He Yuzhu saw Qin Huairu crying, he felt extremely sorry for her and said, "Alright, alright... I'll lend it to you!"

As they were talking, He Yuzhu took out twenty yuan and handed it directly to Liu Aiguo: "Liu Aiguo...you've gone too far, picking on a child...really!"

Liu Aiguo sneered and ignored him.

He wouldn't really hold a grudge against a child.

Logically speaking, it's not a big deal for Bang Geng to steal things, he's just a kid.

They can all be forgiven.

However, Liu Aiguo was angry because Jia Zhangshi had framed him.

She even falsely accused him in front of Yu Li.

If it weren't for the system, he probably wouldn't be able to clear his name even if he jumped into the Yellow River.

This is why Jia Zhangshi is so despicable.

This twenty yuan is a punishment for Jia Zhangshi.

After receiving the twenty yuan, Liu Aiguo turned and left.

Xu Damao walked up with a grin and said, "Brother Liu... that chicken... I'll catch it for you later?"

"No more!"

Liu Aiguo waved his hand: "Now, I don't want it anymore!"

"You..." Xu Damao asked, somewhat disappointed, "Brother Liu, you can't do that!"

"Heh..." Liu Aiguo chuckled coldly and said, "You little brat, you're not exactly innocent after getting a bargain. You really don't understand why I said I'd buy your chicken for ten yuan?"

With a cold smile, Liu Aiguo returned to his room.

Xu Damao rolled his eyes at Liu Aiguo's house: "You scammed Qin Huairu, what does that have to do with me? I lost a chicken, but I didn't even make as much as you did!"

"Sigh..." Xu Damao shook his head and went back into the house.

……

"Come on... let's continue eating!"

Liu Aiguo said, "You'll be my wife from now on, so don't be shy with me... Eat as much as you want!"

"Mmmmmmm..."

Yu Li ate with a blush on her face.

She discovered that Liu Aiguo's cooking was truly delicious.

The braised pork was tender and not greasy at all.

The boiled fish is spicy and numbing, but the fish meat is tender to the perfect degree.

Then there were the eggs and the stir-fried spicy chicken; Yu Li thoroughly enjoyed every dish.

"Is it tasty?"

Liu Aiguo asked Yu Li.

Yu Li said, "It's delicious... I didn't expect a grown man like you to cook so well... You have to teach me in the future. How can we let you cook in our family? I should be the one cooking!"

"Hahaha……"

Liu Aiguo laughed heartily.

Yu Li already considers herself one of her own.

Yu Li, on the other hand, belatedly realized the problem with what she had just said, and her face flushed red instantly.

"Take your time eating... I'll tidy up my things!"

Liu Aiguo went to pack his things.

In this day and age, it's impossible for Yu Li to stay here at night.

I definitely need to go home.

So here's the problem: it needs to be delivered...

You can't walk someone home empty-handed.

After all, they brought a jar of pickled vegetables with them when they came!

Liu Aiguo thought about it!
