What's it like to have a cheeky relative?
I am a small public official, working in the county. My brother-in-law in the country called one day to say that his wife's uncle died and asked for 120 cigarettes from a certain brand for the funeral (we used a lot of cigarettes for the funeral here). In the country, the whole street can't get together that much. I need help. I went to the tobacco monopoly bureau and asked my acquaintances, only to know that our rule is that the monopoly bureau will not hoard goods. I heard that I want it. He can help me contact several larger cigarette shops and do it together, but I have to get it from one to another. After I asked clearly, I called my uncle again to make sure they needed it, and then I took the goods from store to store as my acquaintances said. They are all small retail stores, with only 20 pieces in each store, generally only 10. In this way, the family ran around, busy for several hours, and bought things without even eating dinner. Then they called, and they decided to buy another brand of cigarettes somewhere in the neighboring province. The key to buying there is that it is cheaper. I said I had bought it and paid for it. He blamed me: We came to you to know why you didn't tell me before you bought it. I asked, you said I would buy it! Besides, I have already spent 21,000 yuan on it! What should I do if you don't want it now? He laughed twice, and then he said, then I don't know! Just hung up the phone. I was speechless, so I had to have the cheek to invite that acquaintance again and return to those shops the same way. Some stores will obviously charge me some fees. Well, * * * lost almost 500 yuan! The day in June, you can imagine how hot it is and how cold my heart is! My brother-in-law didn't call me again to ask me what to do with cigarettes. Now, swear never to talk to him again! ! !
