"Mr. Qian loves to take advantage of small deals," Xue Yuantong whispered to Jiang Ning.
He often snatches the vegetables that Uncle Tang grows and asks Butcher Zhang for pig offal. Whenever there's a holiday, and her mom makes dumplings, fries snacks, or prepares pickles, Mr. Qian always takes the most share.
Jiang Ning started the electric scooter: "Indeed, he even scammed Dongdong's pocket money."
Dongdong is the notorious troublemaker in the bungalow area. This summer, Jiang Ning scared him away using the Ghost Formation; otherwise, he'd still be causing trouble for the neighbors.
Xue Yuantong recounted: "Right, a few years ago, when my family just moved to the bungalow, there was a day with strong winds. Dongdong found a pot and sold it by the river dam to a junk collector. On his way back, passing by Mr. Qian's house, he saw Mr. Qian spinning a top. Mr. Qian sold the top to Dongdong for ten yuan, even though, even if new, it's only worth five yuan."
