"This thing called ham tastes really good!" Wu Guixiang also drank half a bowl of soup and smacked the taste in her mouth to reflect on the taste.
"It's really delicious, your mouth is filled with the aroma of meat." Su Aiguo also praised.
"Otherwise, it's a good thing." Zhang Xinlan was quite proud. This time, the focus of the family was finally their second child.
"It's just that I don't eat very often. It's just one leg and it's gone after just a few meals."
Su Qingyun looked at the thin slices of meat in the bowl. With this kind of cutting method and this kind of knife skills, the chef Kang Shuaifu cut the beef had to come to her second aunt for advice.
If you take this slice for every meal, you can eat it for at least a week.
Wu Guixiang thought for a while and said, "In this way, when you send a letter to Congwen, tell him that if you send two more legs back, it won't cost him any money. Let's send him money to buy them."
Zhang Xinlan was about to refute but then heard that her son didn't have to pay for it, so she immediately had no objection.
"Okay, mother, let me tell Congwen." Zhang Xinlan looked at Su Congwu who couldn't lift his head from eating, "Did you hear that? Remember to write it in the letter to your brother."
"knew."
Zhang Xinlan looked at her slightly perfunctory younger son and frowned. The elder brother was now in the army and was being supported by the state. The younger brother was still doing nothing all day long. In every official position, she could not help but think about Congwu and Congwen. The more I thought about it, the more frustrated I became. I completely forgot who was against Cong Wen becoming a soldier in the first place.
"Congwu, let me ask you, do you think there is any truth to the worker's examination?" Congwu had no plans for the day, so she was always worried.
"I know it well." Su Congwu said casually.
"What numbers do you have?" Zhang Xinlan was anxious, "When is the exam going to happen?"
Su Congwu picked up another dish with chopsticks and wrote lightly: "The day after tomorrow."
the day after tomorrow? The whole family stopped using their chopsticks.
Zhang Xinlan's eyes widened, "The exam is the day after tomorrow? Why didn't you tell me earlier, you bastard?"
"What's the use of saying it? You can't help me take the exam. Instead, you have to worry about me." Su Congwu just wanted to take the exam quietly and tell his family when he got good news, but he still couldn't bear it. Mother asked.
"Which factory did third brother take the exam?" Su Qingyun asked curiously.
"Textile factory."
"Textile factory?" the whole family said in unison.
"No, Congwu, have you made a mistake?" Zhang Xinlan looked confused, "Aren't all textile factories recruiting female workers? Why are you, a grown man, doing this?"
"Mom, I told you you don't understand." Su Congwu said helplessly, "Textile factories also need technicians, and not all of them are people who make clothes. Besides, even if you make clothes, there are men. Maybe they can do more work than many female workers. They’re all fine.”
Zhang Xinlan curled her lips, "Then you can't be a bitch?"
Su Qingyun smiled and said: "Second aunt, if third brother can become a technician, the salary will be high."
"Really?" Zhang Xinlan was immediately diverted, "How many can there be?"
Su Qingyun thought for a while, "A junior technician should have at least more than 20 yuan."
so much! Zhang Xinlan was very happy when she heard this. Isn’t that higher than the salary of joining the army?
She immediately gave Su Congwu a piece of meat with chopsticks and said with a smile on her face: "Congwu, eat quickly. Only when you are full can you have the strength to read. Mom, I believe you will definitely be able to pass the technician exam!"
"Thank you, mother." Su Congwu knew that his mother would react this way. It seemed that he had to pass the technician exam, otherwise his mother would kill him!
Zhang Xinlan's smile widened, as if she had already seen the day when Congwu paid her salary.
Su Qingyun was once again impressed by her second aunt's money-obsessed nature.
Since Su Congwu was going to take an exam in the county the day after tomorrow, the Su family discussed it and simply decided to have dinner with the Wen family the day after tomorrow, and the whole Su family went to the county seat together!
But the day after tomorrow was Tuesday, and Su Qingyun had to go to school. She thought about it and asked her class teacher, Teacher Qin, for a leave of absence the next day. Teacher Qin was now very relieved about her and readily agreed.
Su Qingyun had almost finished reading the books she borrowed from the county library, and was going to take them with her to return them tomorrow. During the self-study class, she thought about it and asked Ji Yue beside her, "Have you finished the books you borrowed?"
"What?" Ji Yue was confused.
"I'll take leave to go to the county tomorrow and return the book by the way. I thought if you finish reading it, I'll take it with you and return it."
"I'll go by myself, there are still some places I haven't finished yet."
"That's okay." Su Qingyun didn't care.
Ji Yue: "You haven't been to Uncle Wang for several days. He said that he had found everything and asked me to bring you a message."
"Okay, thank you, but..." Su Qingyun looked at him, "Why do you go to the recycling bin so often?" He brought this to her several times.
Ji Yue paused and said, "It's just to kill time. After all, there's not much place to go in this town."
Su Qingyun nodded, that's true, there is a lack of entertainment methods now, and there is nothing interesting.
"Where...are you from before?" Su Qingyun asked after hesitation. Ji Yue's Mandarin was very standard, his accent was obviously not local, and his temperament did not look like something that could be cultivated by a small town family. To be honest, she A little curious.
Ji Yue said nothing, and just when Su Qingyun thought he wouldn't answer, two faint words came.
"Capital." His tone was as cold as a piece of ice in his mouth.
Su Qingyun's writing hand suddenly stopped and drew a long black line. His eyes were shocked. Did Ji Yue come from the capital? How did you end up in such a small place like Luoshui Town?
Because of the special nature of this era, Su Qingyun could figure out the reason without even thinking. Something must have happened to Ji Yue's family. No wonder he said such words in the library last time. It turned out that he himself was here. Victims implicated in the era.
Su Qingyun could almost imagine what kind of person Ji Yue should be in the past. He was good-looking and smart. No wonder he was so incompatible with others and was talked about by others. He was withdrawn and unsociable. He was the proud man who grew up in the capital. Once he falls, his mentality will inevitably be unbalanced. The difference is too big, and it will be difficult for him to have a common language with others.
Su Qingyun's mood was a little complicated. She glanced out the window. The sun was about to set. The afterglow of the setting sun came in. The orange warm light hit Ji Yue's superior side face. His brows were broad and his long eyelashes blinked slightly. She was stunned. Dumbfounded, looking a little lost in thought.
"What are you looking at me for?" Ji Yue turned his face sideways and met her gaze.
"No...it's nothing." Su Qingyun turned her head suddenly, stuttering a little.
She was actually fascinated by a boy. Su Qingyun couldn't help but feel disgusted with herself in her heart. After calming down for three seconds, she continued to do the questions.
Ji Yue was confused. Why was she blushing suddenly?
——
After school, Su Qingyun went straight to the recycling bin. Wang Zhihua had just returned from collecting a bunch of things and scattered them in the open space in the middle. Su Qingyun's eyes lit up when he saw them.
"Uncle Wang, why are there so many old furniture?"
There are mahogany furniture all over the floor, including tables, chairs, and cabinets. Although it looks old, it has no bumps and does not look worn at all. Instead, it has a sense of history and charm.
"There was a family on the front street that wanted to move, and they couldn't take away the furniture, so I took it away," Wang Zhihua explained.
It turned out to be like this. The more Su Qingyun looked at it, the more she couldn't take her eyes away. What caught her attention was a mahogany dressing cabinet with a small oval mirror on top and two small drawers below. The carving workmanship was good and the size was suitable.
Su Qingyun thought for a while and realized that this dressing cabinet was just right at the head of her bed. It was also convenient for doing homework, and she no longer had to squeeze on the small table.
Her greedy look was noticed by Wang Zhihua, and he smiled, "What? Do you like it?"
"Yeah." Su Qingyun nodded candidly.
"Take it if you like it. Uncle will only give you five yuan, how about it?" Wang Zhihua casually mentioned a price, which was almost the price he got back.
Su Qingyun immediately took out the money and said with a smile, "Thank you, uncle."
"Look how happy you are." Wang Zhihua smiled.
It's not that Su Qingyun didn't know that she had taken advantage, but in the face of her cooperation with Wang Zhihua, this was nothing. This was Wang Zhihua's disguised show of goodwill to her, and she didn't understand.
"Okay, let's get down to business." Sure enough, Wang Zhihua straightened his face and got straight to the point, "I've got all the parts for assembling the bicycle here. When will you do it?"
"It's okay now." Su Qingyun nodded.
"good."
Su Qingyun squatted in front of the pile of parts and took a look.
Wang Zhihua asked: "Is it okay?" He picked out these things by himself without asking Su Qingyun much, just so that he could remember the required parts so that he could discuss cooperation with Su Qingyun.
"No problem, Uncle Wang, you have a good memory." Su Qingyun praised.
"Of course." Wang Zhihua was a little proud. He watched Su Qingyun build his first bicycle bit by bit. He didn't know how to assemble and repair it, so he could still make it with something.
Su Qingyun started to move. It was her first experience. She was familiar with it once and twice. She moved quickly without any obstruction, and she was able to get the frame of the bicycle in a few clicks.
Wang Zhihua couldn't help but said, "Girl, let's discuss something."
Su Qingyun's hand holding the chain stopped, "Say."
Wang Zhihua looked at the closed door of the recycling bin and lowered his voice, "How about we make a fortune together?"
"Get rich? Please tell me in detail." Su Qingyun said calmly and calmly.
"That's it." Wang Zhihua pointed to the semi-finished bicycle on the ground, "I will provide the parts and you will be responsible for them. I will also be responsible for the sales. You don't have to worry about anything. You only need to assemble the bicycle every two days. The money we make will be How about thirty-seven points?”
"You mean I provide the technology and you provide the others?"
"right."
Su Qingyun was silent. Uncle Wang was actually very sincere. He made everything clear from materials to technology to sales. In fact, it was a stake in the technology of future generations. At 30-70 points, it was not a scam for her, but...
"Uncle Wang, the risk is a bit high." Su Qingyun is not unmoved, but a big item like a bicycle is not like a hairpin and a hairpin. Too much of it will arouse suspicion.
"Our place is too small." It's small enough that anyone can find out, let alone a rare bicycle.
Wang Zhihua also fell silent.
