Chapter 218 Who led my father astray
Chapter 218 Who led my father astray
Uncle Wei is a serious and stubborn person, even a little rigid.
He insisted that since the TV said spicy strips were junk food, then they were not good things.
He wanted to reject Uncle Li sternly and used the same excuses he usually used to educate the younger generation.
Just when he was about to blurt it out, he remembered that Uncle Li was his classmate, not his child, so he should not scold his classmate but should maintain a good relationship with him.
"I'd better give up. I can't eat spicy food." Uncle Wei made an excuse, pushed Uncle Li's hand away, and closed his eyes to avoid looking at the temptingly colored spicy strips.
"It's not spicy, it's very fragrant." Uncle Li was afraid that Uncle Wei would not believe him, so he stuffed one into his own mouth to prove that his spicy strips were not spicy.
"Try it, I promise you will open the door to a new world after you eat it."
Uncle Li took the spicy strips out of the colorful packaging and held them in front of Uncle Wei.
The long spicy strips were covered with red oil and chili slices. A scent of oil and salty aroma penetrated into Uncle Wei's nostrils, stimulating his saliva and making him dizzy with the fragrance.
Uncle Wei's eyes unconsciously glanced at the spicy strips.
"I'll just try one, it won't be a big problem. I have self-control and won't be tempted by snacks." He swallowed and comforted himself in his heart.
He was just curious about what the spicy strips that his grandchildren saved 5 cents from their breakfast to eat tasted like.
If it doesn't taste good, he will have more reason to teach them a lesson later.
"Thank you." Uncle Wei quickly took the spicy strips, stuffed them into his mouth, and closed his eyes as if ready to die.
The spicy taste instantly swept through his mouth, stimulating his taste buds. His eyes lit up instantly, and his stomach was screaming wildly: One more.
"How is it? Is it delicious?" Uncle Li looked at him expectantly.
Although Uncle Wei tasted it, he still said stubbornly: "It's just so-so. I haven't tasted the flavor yet."
As he spoke, his eyes were fixed on the remaining spicy strips in the bag.
"No, there are only a few left. I want to save the rest and eat them slowly." Uncle Li guarded the spicy strips vigilantly.
It’s not that he is stingy, it’s just this one pack he has left, and he got it from Old Fu with great coaxing.
The snacks he bought last time had long been eaten, and he had also spent all his pocket money for this month.
He has no status at home now. He has an 80-year-old father to his parents and a son, Teacher Li, to his son. They both take care of him. In order to prevent him from spending money indiscriminately, they only give him 100 yuan a month to spend freely. After spending all the money, he has to write a written report to Teacher Li if he wants to buy something.
He didn't dare to scold his parents, and couldn't hit his children. He felt very depressed, and when he was hungry, he could only rely on Lao Fu for help.
Spicy strips are getting more expensive now, and his wallet can’t afford it. Giving only one spicy strip to Uncle Wei is already the limit.
Seeing Uncle Wei's pointed eyes, Uncle Li felt bad. Facing the Chinese painting teacher's puzzled eyes, he hooked Uncle Wei's neck and whispered to him: "Brother, don't blame me for not helping you."
"I'll tell you where to buy it, and you can buy it yourself."
Uncle Li finished speaking quickly and stood up with his hands raised, "Teacher Huang, I know, I'll go out right away."
Uncle Li took out his cell phone with ease, put it in his pocket, and walked to the back door holding his spicy strips.
Teacher Huang has now learned a new trick. He asks the talkative uncles and aunts to stand outside the door for a while, but not too long, until the vice-principal comes to inspect the classes. He doesn't have to worry about other things.
But Teacher Huang was still soft-hearted. Uncle Li and Lao Fu were called back before they could finish watching a short video outside.
Teacher Huang also came to terms with it. He felt that Uncle Li and the others didn't have any bad habits except that they were a little noisy.
Let them make a fuss. They are already at this age, and I don’t expect them to get into Tsinghua or Peking University. Health and happiness are more important than anything else.
On the other side, Uncle Wei waited for the get out of class to end with curiosity and nervousness.
As soon as I got out of school, I went to the snack shop, and once I bought something, the door to a new world opened up.
……
When I opened the door, I bumped into my grandchildren, a boy and a girl, all around me.
Zuo Zuo and You You were holding their schoolbags, and Uncle Wei had snacks wrapped in his jacket.
The two children are in the second grade and are most afraid of their serious grandfather.
As soon as they met, the coward Zuo Zuo was the first to confess: "Grandpa, we only bought a few snacks. Please don't tell my parents, these are all for my sister's desire."
Youyou glared at her brother, pouted and stomped her feet: "You are lying, you obviously bought more."
"Brother is a big liar. Didn't you agree not to tell Grandpa?"
Uncle Wei turned his back while they were arguing, stuffed the plastic bag of snacks in his arms into the TV cabinet, coughed twice, and said solemnly, "Give me the schoolbag."
"Didn't I tell you that the food you eat is made from gutter oil? If children eat too much, they won't grow tall."
"Snacks contain a lot of chemical additives. Eating them will make you stupid."
"Grandpa, I will pretend I didn't see it today, but you won't be allowed to do this next time. Give me your snacks and I'll keep them for you."
The two children looked at each other, and reluctantly took out the instant noodles, potato chips, and spicy strips from their schoolbags, and anxiously reminded him, "Grandpa, you must keep it a secret for us."
Uncle Wei nodded with a stern face and put the "confiscated" snacks into the TV cabinet where the children could not reach.
He will keep it well and try not to keep it in his stomach.
"Hurry up and do your homework." Uncle Wei drove them into the house and went quietly to see what delicious food the primary school students liked to eat.
……
Since Uncle Wei became addicted to snacks, he ate less regular meals.
After observing for several days, his son Xiao Wei finally couldn't help but ask, "Dad, have you been feeling unwell lately?"
"Why didn't you eat half as much today as usual?"
Uncle Wei burped guiltily, "I ate at school, so I'm not hungry now."
Little Wei was skeptical until the next day when he found a bunch of snack bags in Uncle Wei's room while cleaning. Little Wei let out a sharp cry:
"My dad actually became a bad person at the senior citizens' university!"
