"Giving it to someone?" Lin Yue said, "Who did it give it to?"
Li Suhua patted the dirt off his body, shook the towel in the air a few times, and said, "It's just you, Aunt Qiao."
Aunt Qiao is Qiao Chunyan's mother. She has a good relationship with Li Suhua. They are very close in the TV series, but it is like the portrayal of countless rural women. It is really good to be good, but once they are compared, the words are really bitter. Just Qiao Chunyan The two of them had an issue with each other over sleeping with Cao Debao before they were married.
"Her? What does she want industrial coupons for?"
As Li Suhua opened the door and walked into the house, she said, "Chunyan, why don't you go into the public bath now? The road to work is not closer than yours. It's getting colder and colder now. It's too painful to walk there every day. The two of the Qiao family I just thought about buying her a bicycle."
Lin Yue was speechless: "Chun Yan'er hasn't learned to ride a bicycle yet, so you want to buy her a bicycle?"
In this era, bicycles are big items. Phoenix, Forever, Feige... none of them cost more than 100 yuan. It's not bad if you just spend money. The key is to have industrial coupons. For large items like bicycles, at least It takes seven or eight, and for an ordinary worker, it’s good if he can get one a month. He usually has to buy pots and pans, towels and blankets, raincoats and umbrellas, etc. For a worker like Zhou Bingkun, 17 yuan per month is required. After all, if you save money and save money, you can buy a bicycle a year, which is very good.
Li Suhua said: "Aren't you planning to buy it? I haven't saved enough money yet, so I'll save the industrial coupons first and wait until after the New Year."
"What's wrong? She thinks our industrial coupons belong to her family? She should prepare them first, as if our family doesn't use them."
"I was thinking about how I haven't used the industrial vouchers at home recently. Let's give them to her family first. If there is an emergency, my mother will think of a way. The neighbors can borrow some. It will be fine." After Li Suhua finished speaking, she reacted: "You want to What do you plan to buy with industrial coupons?”
"Brother Qiangzi... Just Tu Zhiqiang, I heard that he got married, and I thought he would take good care of me in the workplace. For such a big thing as getting married, I have to express my gratitude. He won't accept the money I gave him, so I just said that at home. There is also a pair of useless thermoses, which I plan to give to him as a wedding gift."
"That's right." Li Suhua understood clearly: "Kun'er, don't worry about this. It's just two industrial coupons. Mom will go to your Aunt Zhang's in the afternoon and ask for two. Your Uncle Zhang's factory is very profitable. What do you usually do? They’ve all been given out, and I’ve saved up all the industrial coupons.”
As she spoke, she opened the lid of the pot.
The heat rises, and the smell of polenta and steamed buns rises.
Lin Yue didn't want her to owe a favor, so he waved his hand: "Mom, no need, I can handle it myself."
"Look at you kid, how can you do this?"
"I'll send it two days late. When the coupons are issued next month, I'll buy a pair of nice-looking cups and send them to him. Brother Qiangzi is a very nice person and won't blame me."
"That's right. Qiangzi is a nice kid. Every time we meet in the alley, we talk to each other very cordially. He talks about his aunt. Oh, by the way, who is his wife?" At this point, she sighed. : "There aren't many girls who are willing to marry us."
"I didn't ask." Lin Yue thought for a moment and chose to keep Zheng Juan's situation a secret, thinking about everything until he went over to see it.
He didn't know if the timing of his time travel was right or if Luo Shibin had touched Zheng Juan.
"Okay, let's eat quickly. Mom still has work to do after dinner."
Li Suhua took the bowl of pickles out of the pot and put it on the dining table. Her hands were so hot that she touched her earlobes.
"Let me do it."
Lin Yue stretched out his hand and took out the remaining two bowls without even frowning.
Li Suhua was amazed when she saw it: "The hands that move wood are different. The skin is rough and the flesh is thick, so it is not afraid of being burned."
Lin Yue smiled, said nothing, and took two pairs of chopsticks from the basket, one pair for my mother and one pair for myself.
The dishes are hot pickled radish and yesterday's stir-fried sauerkraut, and a bowl of soybean paste, which has no meat or oil. The main dish is corn tortillas, which are hard in the mouth and will irritate your throat if you swallow them. This is still a standard dinner. In the morning, add a bowl of polenta and half a corn tortilla to spread the sauce. Refined food like steamed buns and rice are not available during holidays.
"Kun'er, you really don't need mom to help you?"
Seeing Lin Yue lowering his head to eat without saying a word, Li Suhua thought he was still worried about the industrial coupons.
"If you tell me you don't need it, then you don't need it. Why aren't you done yet?"
"This kid won't let me help him if he doesn't let me help him. Why is he so angry?"
Lin Yue drank half a piece of cake and a bowl of porridge three times, clapped his hands and stood up: "I'm full." After saying that, he ran to the outhouse, and then there was the sound of rummaging through boxes and cabinets.
"Kun'er, what are you doing?"
"I'm looking for the book my brother and sister left behind before they left."
"What are you looking for?"
"Have nothing to do and take a look."
Gu Hao and Li Suhua murmured in a low voice: "This child... is messing around every day, and you can't understand the book."
"Mom, did you say bad things about me behind my back?"
"Isn't Mom right?"
"No, look at what you said, it seems that my brother and my sister are studying hard to make progress, while I am not doing my job properly."
"What the hell, you still want to compete with your brother and your sister?"
"Mom, you've never heard of the three-day separation being a surprise. I now spend more time reading than they do."
"Okay, okay, I'm looking forward to the day when your academic performance will catch up with your brother and your sister."
Regarding her youngest son's studies, the old lady's words contained a hint of disbelief and disdain. You must know that Zhou Bingyi and Zhou Rong have been top students in the class since elementary school. It is common for them to get perfect scores. As for Zhou Bingkun, his grade At the end of the day, if you pass the exam, you will have to burn the incense, and no matter how hard you try, there will be no improvement. Once, your wife Zhou Zhigang starved him for three days, but it turned out that it was useless. He should be naughty, mischievous, and study? impossible.
To use the words in the letter from her eldest son Zhou Bingyi, Bingkun Primary School must be the best in Chinese, otherwise it would be a problem to write and read letters with her mother at home.
…
The next day, Lin Yue drank a bowl of porridge and went out. When he arrived at the entrance of the alley, he took a profile picture of Qiao Chunyan, who thought he was a mature photoshoot, Yi Zhihua, running and calling his name.
Lin Yue just pretended not to hear and rode his bicycle away quickly.
It took him almost twenty minutes to arrive at the Hongxing Lumber Factory. After parking his bicycle, he did not go to pick up the work guy. Instead, he turned around and entered the office building, knocking on the door of the deputy director's office.
"Enter."
After receiving the response, Lin Yue opened the door and walked into the room.
Deputy Director Xu raised his head and took a look. He continued to work and said while writing materials: "Zhou Bingkun... tell me, what do you want to see me for?"
Lin Yue said: "Private matters."
"Private matter?"
Deputy Director Xu was stunned for a moment because the tip of the pen rested on the paper for too long, leaving a large ink stain.
Looking at the content above and the words "Work Plan" in the header, he felt a little unhappy. He raised his hand, put the pen aside, looked at Lin Yue and said, "Tell me, what's the private matter?"
Lin Yue told the truth: "Director, you have the highest salary in our factory and you receive a lot of industrial coupons every month. I would like to ask you to borrow two industrial coupons."
"Industrial coupons? Are you asking me to borrow industrial coupons? Where are your own industrial coupons?"
"My mother gave it away."
"I... don't have it. You can borrow it from someone else. Qianchao, Guoqing, and Tu Zhiqiang. As far as I know, they have a good relationship with you."
Lin Yue said: "They only issue one per month, which is not enough for my own family. Unlike you, the factory director, you can get several per month."
Deputy Director Xu said: "They need to buy daily necessities, don't I? No, go, go, go."
Industrial vouchers are more valuable than food stamps, cloth stamps, and gas stamps. They can be sold for two or three yuan each on the black market. What do you think an ordinary worker comes to the factory director to borrow industrial vouchers? What's more, if he sets such a precedent, what if others imitate his example and come to him to borrow it?
Lin Yue was not anxious or annoyed: "Let's put it this way, director, if you help me with this matter, and the wood processing factory encounters a difficult obstacle in the future, I will reciprocate and help you overcome the difficulties, how about it?"
"Who are you? I need your help?" Deputy Director Xu felt that his head must be broken. Hongxing Wood Processing Factory is not a first-class good unit in Jichun, so it is no problem to be ranked in the middle. Will you encounter obstacles that you can’t overcome in the future? Is it possible? And listen to what he said, reciprocate and help you get through the difficulties? A factory manager needs help from an ordinary worker like him?
This bullshit... is so bragging.
"Get out, now, immediately, immediately. Get out now."
Lin Yue said: "Director, are you sure you want to break up with me?"
Deputy Director Xu slapped the table: "Who do you think you are if you dare to threaten me?"
"Okay." Lin Yue smiled coldly, turned around and walked outside. When he was approaching the door, he stopped: "I will let you lend me industrial vouchers, no... I should say that you will give me industrial vouchers." .”
After saying this, he quickly left the office without waiting for the factory director's reply.
