"That makes sense. What is your budget this time?"

"One hundred dollars."

"Yuanyuan, I didn't expect you to be a rich man."

"I am not a rich person. I have saved all this money since I was a child. It has been almost twenty years and I have only saved one hundred yuan. Do you still think I am a rich person now?"

"Of course I do. You have to know that in the countryside, a whole family can't earn a hundred yuan a year, so your one hundred yuan is really a lot. You can marry several wives in the countryside."

"How many wives? Are you telling the truth?"

"Of course it's true. Some people give a bag of grain to their wives when they get married. Only wealthy families will give a bride price of ten or twenty yuan."

Zhang Yuanyuan was shocked when she heard Lu Xiaoxiao's words. She didn't expect that it would be so cheap to marry a wife, so the bride price wouldn't be so low when she gets married in the future, right?

"What are you thinking about?" Lu Xiaoxiao asked when she saw Zhang Yuanyuan lying on the table blankly.

“I didn’t think about anything, I just felt that I couldn’t marry someone with such a low betrothal gift, because my monthly salary was only 18 yuan and 50 cents, and there were various subsidies.

If I marry someone whose bride price is only ten or twenty yuan, then I am not losing money. "

"Don't worry, your mother will not marry you to such a family."

"makes sense."

"By the way, are you sure you want to spend all 100 yuan on buying things?"

"Sure, it's such a rare opportunity. What if I don't buy enough? Besides, I get a salary every month. Sooner or later, I will save back the money I spent."

"What you said makes sense. Then take advantage of the time before I leave to think about what you want to buy. I will buy it for you then."

"good."

At around five o'clock in the evening, Lu Xiaoxiao quickly went home after get off work. When she arrived at her door, she saw Liu Biao standing at her door with a large bag of things.

So she asked: "Why did you come so early?"

"I don't have to go to work in the afternoon, so I bought some vegetables. I can't just buy food every time I come to the house. Now that I can make money, I have to show off."

Lu Xiaoxiao felt relieved for some reason after hearing Liu Biao's words. She was not pleased because Liu Biao came to buy groceries, but because of Liu Biao's thoughtfulness. This proved that she did not help in the first place. Wrong person.

After dinner was ready more than an hour later, Lu Xiaoxiao took a sip of soup and asked Liu Biao: "When will you leave the car next time?"

"In half a month."

"Place."

"provincial capital."

"Why is the place where we left the car so close this time?"

"Because there is an unwritten rule in the transportation team: one trip for long distances and three times for short distances, otherwise the driver's body may not be able to bear it."

"This regulation is very good. Driving long distances is indeed very mentally and physically demanding."

"I think it's okay. I didn't feel tired when I got out of the car this time."

"That's because you are not the one driving the car, otherwise you would never be able to say this."

"I wanted to be the driver, but Master Xu refused to hand over the steering wheel to me. He only asked me to sit in the passenger seat and watch how he drove."

"You should be satisfied. There are many people in the transportation team who have been repairing cars for several years and may not be able to follow the car even once. You have only been in the transportation team for less than a year, and Master Xu asked you to go on a long trip with the car. He That’s pretty good for you.”
