146. When I grow up, I will buy good food for my older brother to eat.

Jia Zhang's family returned to the courtyard triumphantly. Most of the people in the courtyard had not finished work or school yet, except for a lonely figure named Bang Geng. He was squatting in front of the house, watching ants moving their homes.
棒梗听到脚步声，回头看，见是奶奶，连忙站了起来，脸上却是惶急的神色。
“奶奶，学校怎么说？”棒梗担忧地问道。
"What else can I say? Just do whatever you should do tomorrow! Go to work if you have to, go to school if you have to!" Jia Zhangshi said triumphantly.
Unfortunately, there was nobody in the courtyard, and even if the voice was loud, no one could hear it.
"Is everything okay?" Banggeng exclaimed in surprise.
"It is indeed okay! From now on, if there's any problem, tell grandma. Don't worry about grandma's old age, she knows how to deal with people like them! Trust me, no one will dare to trouble you at school anymore!" Jia Zhangshi confidently stated.
"Great!" Banggeng jumped up and hugged Jiazhangshi tightly, shaking vigorously.
Jiazhangshi burst into laughter and happily said, "Slow down, my dear grandchild, take it easy! My old bones can't handle your roughness."
"Everything okay now?" Qin Huairu's voice suddenly sounded from behind.
Jia Zhangshi turned around and saw Qin Huairu. She disdainfully shrugged and said, "Everything's fine! They even asked me to go to the hospital. I quickly dealt with them! The principal of their school, Principal Li, obediently backed down! Extort money from our family? No way!"
秦淮茹听了也是满脸笑容，还是婆婆行，俗话说老将出马，一个顶俩，这话可不是胡说的！
瞧瞧自己婆婆，谈笑间，解决了大问题。
"Great! I'll go buy some meat right away. We'll have a delicious braised pork tonight and save some money!" Qinhua Ru happily said, then turned and left.
"Where is your food ration book! You didn't bring your food ration book!" Mrs. Jia Zhang shouted triumphantly from behind.
"Oh! Oh! We're having meat for dinner tonight!" Bangeng also shouted excitedly.
The sky was gradually getting dark, and lights in every household were also lit up. The sound of the radio program intermingled in the air above the traditional courtyard.
The aroma of various dishes wafted out of the kitchens in every home.
The people in the hospital were surprised to find that there was a scent of braised meat coming from the Qin family's kitchen.
"What is this smell?"
"Why does it smell so good?"
"Did the silly pillar family eat meat again!"
Neighbors are discussing eagerly, some curious people even run out of their homes and go to the center court to see which household is stewing meat.
"It turns out to be the Qinhuai Ru family!" Liu Guangtian glanced at Liu Guangfu and said.
"Qin Huaru's family eats better than us! No, I have to have a good talk with our dad. We can't keep eating scrambled eggs while they eat steamed buns!" Liu Guangfu said indignantly.
"Let's forget about it! Don't anger the old man again, or he'll beat us up without mercy. Who knows where he came from!" Liu Guangtian thought for a moment and said.
"You're right, a level seven blacksmith with those hands swinging the big hammer, just the thought of it scares me!" Liu Guangfu shook his head and said.
"I'm scared too," Liu Guangtian also said.
Qinhuai Ru's house.
"Fantastic! Eat with all your might. Today when we went to your school, not only did we not lose money, but we even earned five yuan!" Jia Zhangshi proudly said.
The dog wagged its tail while stuffing meat into its mouth.
"Mom, is everything really okay? Don't let them send Barky back to school tomorrow." Qin Huaru expressed her concerns.
"They dare! If they dare cause trouble again, we'll teach them a lesson!" Jia Zhangshi said loudly.
"Yes, teach them a lesson! Our school's teachers indeed need to be taught!" Bangeng interjected.
秦淮茹不高兴地看了棒梗一眼，冷声说道：“棒梗，以后不许你再给我惹事！你瞅瞅今天，要不是你奶奶，咱们家可能就得花大钱！”
"Isn't this great? It's not only costless, but also profitable!" Banggeng said with excitement.
"What are you so excited about? Don't you know where you went wrong?" Qinhuairu said loudly.
"I know, how could I not know?" Banggeng whispered. His eyes lit up as he quickly put a small piece of lean meat into Xiao Dang's bowl, and smiled, saying, "Xiao Dang, have some meat!"
Huaihua whispered beside her, "Huaihua also wants to eat meat."
Banggeng picked up a piece and put it in Huaihua's bowl generously, saying, "Don't worry, you also have some!"
贾张氏慈爱地看着棒梗，温情地说道：“多好的孩子啊！还知道照顾弟弟妹妹。”
秦淮茹也点点头说道：“棒梗这孩子是调皮一点，但是心眼不坏，知道照顾弟弟妹妹，而且还顾家。”
“我哥哥对我们可好了，有时候都偷东西让我们吃。”槐花奶声奶气地气。
贾张氏听了槐花说话，一阵大笑，随后问道：“那小槐花对哥哥应该怎么样？”
“我长大要对哥哥好，挣好多好多钱，给哥哥买好多好多好东西吃。”槐花认真地说道。
贾张氏又是一阵大笑，开玩笑问道：“小槐花准备怎么挣钱给哥哥买好吃的东西啊？”
小槐花一愣，随即瞪大了眼睛说道：“偷东西！我也要去偷东西，可以卖好多好多的钱！”
贾张氏和秦淮茹听了都是一愣，面面相觑说不出话来。
At Uncle San's house.
一大家子人挤在圆桌上吃饭。
饭菜很简单，窝头稀饭，咸菜炒白菜。
“秦淮茹家炖肉呢，真香啊！”阎解放咬了一口窝头，羡慕地说道。
“别净瞧见人家吃肉了，到时候挨打别喊疼就成！”三大爷笑道。
“听说贾老太婆到学校闹去了？就连李校长也没辙？”于莉兴奋地问道。
“没辙！校长拿她还真没辙！”三大爷喝了一口稀饭说道。
“那以后有个什么事，就到学校闹去呗，反正也没有亏吃！”
“只要能舍出去这张脸，干嘛去学校啊，到了哪都不缺这种人一口饭吃！”三大爷说道。
“咦，仔细一琢磨，爸这话说得还真对，咱们还真是拉不下这张脸！”阎解放接口说道。
“那是啊，人活一张脸，要是连脸都不要了，还有什么舍不下的啊！”三大爷说到这里，放下了快子，语重心长地说道：“但是以后呢？说得好听，那叫敬而远之，说不好听，那就是新鞋不踩臭狗屎！大家都会疏远秦家。”
Old San Daye said this and glanced at his family, seeing them lost in thought. He continued, "Have you thought about the consequences? How will the teachers at school perceive him? Who would dare to befriend him? He would be all alone! Is it really worth it? I don't think so."
The moon quietly climbed to the treetops, and the bustling courtyard gradually fell silent, sinking into silence.
