"Wei Tao, come in and tell you something."
After sending Cao Xiyu home, he had no intention of entering the house, so Zhou Min called him to come in.
Cao Xiyu, who took off her coat, sat aside and listened quickly. She didn't want her mother to say something like "I educate you for your own good." She was a little afraid that Wei Tao would be angry.
"Wei Tao, the school wants to purchase a batch of teachers' benefits for the Chinese New Year. The standard is three hundred yuan. Is your 'fresh time' okay?"
What is love and love, what is identity change?
In the past, it was just a fruit box. What you saw was Zhou Minmingzhe protecting herself, and you saw a side of her that was not worthy of deep friendship. But what kind of identity conflict was it at that time? Now what?
"No problem, rice, flour, oil, fruit drinks, beer, everything."
"You can give me a quote tomorrow and have it ready to be delivered to the school."
"Aunt Zhou, you don't have to go to such trouble. I will give you a set meal for three hundred yuan. These are all available for your own use. You can also give them as gifts if you don't want them. They are guaranteed to be affordable and have more styles. I don't make any money. The school only needs to distribute some collars. There is no need to bring the coupons to the school for distribution. Please go directly to my big store on Yinhe Street to pick up the coupons. I don’t make money here, but as long as people come, I will The New Year's goods are all prepared, so you can buy anything on the way. I can also provide benefits specifically for the teachers of No. 2 Middle School and deliver them to your door."
Listening to Wei Tao's talk, Zhou Min was a little dazed. This guy has a good brain. It would be a pity not to study. All these things are consumption inducements.
But I have to admit that the food at 'Xiangguang' is good. The raw pork is on the chopping board. Zhou Min went to buy it. You can't wait in line to talk about it, but almost as long as you go there late, it will be sold out. I took the coupon and went there. There were absolutely a lot of good things. Anyone could buy something. It seemed like the set meal was done in the name of not making money, but in fact?
A door-to-door delivery will make it even more attractive. Everyone buys New Year's goods during the New Year. Wouldn't it be better if someone delivers them to your home? Where can I buy them all without having to run around from house to house in the heavy snow and howling sky? Just buy it from 'Xianshiguang', the prices are not expensive, they are all market prices, and their quality is pretty good. I bought them all at once and asked their people to send them to my home...
"Okay, just look at the arrangements. I can rest assured that you will do the work."
After the business talk was over, there was no obstacle for Wei Tao, a boyfriend who had met his parents in advance, to enter Cao Xiyu's boudoir. The two of them just didn't close the door.
After staying for nearly an hour, there were many people knocking on the door. Cao Xiyu shrugged: "It's like this during the holidays."
Wei Tao originally wanted to say, Aunt Zhou, you are busy, I will help you buy the New Year's goods for your family, but now he has completely given up this idea. The gifts these two people received ranged from high-end ones to ordinary ones, and even some agricultural products. There are two large freezers on the balcony at home, full of frozen items such as prairie lamb, plateau beef, and pork from home-killed pigs. Cao Xiyu said that he would send large quantities to relatives every festival.
It's a very common thing. Wei Tao doesn't think that Cao Haiyang and Zhou Min are the kind of spotless people. There are so few in this society that it's basically difficult for them to climb up. His style is to follow the trend of the times and stick to his own bottom line.
After a while, she went out for a walk and brought back a plate of washed cherries, which cost several hundred yuan for a small box.
Wei Tao picked one up and put it in his mouth: "I had never eaten this before the Chinese New Year last year."
I don't know what point this sentence touched Cao Xiyu, but she stretched out her hand, first motioned Wei Tao to spit the core into her palm, threw it away and wiped the palm of her hand, then took another pill and fed it to him, reaching out to touch it. A sentence appeared on his cheek: "It would be great if you pursued me sooner."
The caring and inclusive feeling of maternal love is overwhelming.
Wei Tao smiled from the bottom of his heart. He put his cheek against her palm and spit out the core. He grabbed her hand and was sitting on her bed. He moved his body down, pressed against her palm and lay down on his side. , closed his eyes, and within three minutes he heard a very slight snoring sound.
…………
Cao Xiyu came out. On the side of the door, in the corner of the kitchen and dining room, and on the balcony, the normal pattern of every major holiday was started again. Friends, subordinates, and so on, they were not the kind of people who wanted to sit down with Deputy Cao or Principal Zhou just to give gifts. The people who came down to chat were simply expressing their relationship with each other. If something happened or something, such New Year's gift packs and the like were completely out of reach.
"Where's Wei Tao?"
"Asleep." Cao Xiyu moved lightly and sat next to her mother on the sofa: "He gets up at two or three o'clock every morning and is busy until evening. If he doesn't have any social activities, it's better to go to bed early. Basically, he wakes up every day. When socializing, I just take some time to take a nap. When I come back, he stays with me again, and I don’t even have time to catch up on sleep, and my eyes are all red and bloodshot.”
Zhou Min patted her daughter's hand and said nothing.
Cao Xiyu knew that if there was any dissatisfaction in her mother's heart, it was that Wei Tao did not insist on going to school and would not have a decent academic qualification in the future. But in other respects, Wei Tao did meet many of his mother's inner requirements for an ideal son-in-law.
Of course, we are just making friends now, and it is not time to talk about marriage yet. We are all so young, and those things are still far away. Zhou Min will not say too much. Seeing that his daughter has begun to learn to care about and understand people, such growth may Only in the relationship between boyfriend and girlfriend can she grow up quickly.
According to Zhou Min's understanding, it is very necessary for boys and girls of this age to experience a love relationship so that they can truly transform from teenagers to young adults. Her daughter's love relationship, at least what she has seen so far, is relatively positive.
Years ago, Cao Haiyang was checking everywhere, but he could hardly get home on time every day. Sometimes he would go to meetings at 11 or 12 o'clock. Today is no exception. I just got a call and have a meeting tonight. Here the mother and daughter were sitting in the living room watching TV for about an hour...
The ringing of the phone made Wei Tao suddenly open his eyes. He was in a trance. It took him a second to wake up. This was at Cao Xiyu's house. He took the phone, glanced at the caller, and picked up: "Hey, brother, what's the day after tomorrow?" , Okay, no problem, you and my sister-in-law can go together in the car then, leave early, go shopping after coming, eat in the afternoon, and live in a natural place in the evening, ok, I will look at the arrangements."
Then the phone came out and smiled apologetically at Zhou Min. The red blood in his eyes was heartbreaking.
"Sorry, Aunt Zhou, I fell asleep." He hung up the phone and apologized again.
"It's okay, Wei Tao, you can't go through it like this. Young people have good foundation, so it's over. You have to learn to let go properly. You can't do everything yourself."
"Auntie, you are not always so busy. Just during the Chinese New Year, the wholesale price of cucumbers has been four and a half yuan. These days, the price is the same every day. The vegetable vendors are going crazy. If we don't keep an eye on the market, others will talk about it. The price won’t come down.”
Cao Xiyu nodded: "Last year on the morning of the 30th, my grandma and I went to buy cucumbers. They cost 12 yuan a pound. I was scared to death."
Wei Tao smiled and didn't respond to this sentence. What can I say? It's all for making money. As for the market prices are chaotic and the people can't afford food, it's all based on the situation. The necessary dishes for the New Year's Eve dinner are all expensive. Others It’s not expensive, it’s up to you whether you want to eat it or not.
"Li Dong and the others want to get together, are you going?" When sending Wei Tao out, Cao Xiyu told him the information he had just seen in the penguin colony.
"Let's take a look. I can't tell, I was too busy before the year."
"Then if you don't go, I won't go either."
"You won't go to junior high school, and you won't go to high school either?"
"Um."
Wei Tao stretched out his hand and pinched Cao Xiyu's nose: "When I finish working these days, let's go skiing."
"Um."
………………
You still have to take time to sleep every day, but your body can't bear it anymore, but you can't help it. The money is rolling towards you like a snowball. Who can resist such a temptation?
Fortunately, Wei Tao has the experience of staying in an Internet cafe. He is used to black and white, used to sleeping in fragments, and used to staying up until the end of time.
After the New Year, until the twenty-eighth day of the twelfth lunar month, the next few days will be a decisive battle for vegetables. You can make more and less in these few days. By New Year's Eve, there will basically be no purchases, and the leftovers will be shaken off. It’s clean, otherwise it’s not worth a penny. Don’t be greedy for more on this last day. If you sell out early, you’ll feel bad if you make less money, but it’s always better. You haven’t sold out by around noon.
There were almost no people who bought things after noon on New Year's Eve. Almost everything left by this time was thrown away. Those who could keep it until the second and third day of the new year were extra money.
Some have hot tempers and get into arguments.
There are also threats to each other.
There are also many times of cooperation, and you can earn more and less by making a lot of money.
In short, money comes first these days. Everyone wants to spend less to buy, and everyone wants to make more to sell. There is a game between supply at all levels, and there are all kinds of debts and relationships. If it's a waste, it's not about the money but the goods. Then there will inevitably be disputes and conflicts.
But at the end of the day, it's all about making money.
All the 'Hongfu' and 'Xianshiguang' stores are overcrowded every day. New Year's Eve itself is the peak shopping period, and 'Xianshiguang' has promoted its brand. Some people want to go to big supermarkets or farmers' markets to buy new year goods. Yes, after looking at the inventory in this store, I don’t want to go there. I know the basics. At least I can’t charge us exorbitant prices. I don’t have to worry if I buy too much and can’t carry it.
Now Wei Tao and Liu Dalong are the 'labor security' for the villagers in Xinglong Township.
Xinglong Township is the 'labor market' for both of them.
Some of you who are more diligent want to earn more before the year. As long as you are willing to come out, Boss Wei and Boss Liu will ensure that you have work and earn a lot.
There are almost three or five temporary workers in every store. Some of them bring their relatives and friends to help. If you really can’t find anyone, just give Boss Wei and Boss Liu a call and they will soon have labor from Xinglong Township. Come and work in your shop.
It was another morning when I was so busy that I just had to eat breakfast. I felt a little uncomfortable in my stomach. I had vomiting and diarrhea. I took a bottle and slept. My body felt very heavy. When the alarm clock rang, I forced myself to get up and took a shower in the bathroom of the store. It was very uncomfortable to take a hot bath and wear clothes in a small space without wiping it clean in winter, but I couldn’t care less, so I changed into the clothes I had prepared and quickly drove to Natural Residence.
Cousin Zhao Kai's homecoming banquet, after bringing Yang Yali's relatives over in the morning, he went to see Rime and went shopping. At two o'clock in the afternoon, the two tables in the large private room of Tianranju were already about to open.
