Chapter 21: Idleness and Chaos (2)
Idle Chaos (2) (novel) Zhang Baotong
At this moment, a familiar woman passed by the door, entered the store, pouted her mouth mysteriously, and said to Aiyun, This store is like a half-dead old man, and people can't push it out, why did you take over? Aiyun smiled bitterly, not knowing what to do. But my lover said that our family has a lot of money, and we can't spend it, and we don't do something good for others, and our hearts are not quiet. Aiyun herself was angry in her heart, and when she saw her lover mocking her in front of her acquaintances, she was even more annoyed, and she quarreled with her lover again.
In the end, neither of them quarreled about the merits. In the end, it was the lover who proposed to make peace first, saying that we couldn't eat it if we quarreled, so let Aiyun go home and cook. Aiyun said no, I am not a born girl, I specialize in serving others. Guang was angry and full, what kind of food did he eat, Aiyun went on such a strike, and his lover and son had to buy a box lunch to eat.
When she went to bed at night, Aiyun didn't want to sleep with her lover, so she hugged the pillow and quilt on her son's single cot, because her son still had to watch the store at night. When my lover saw that she was still choking, she said that you want to open a small shop, so why should you have trouble with me. Aiyun said that you are a big man's family, what kind of master are you doing, and what are you doing? The lover said unjustly, I am not afraid that you will be idle at home and in a bad mood. As he spoke, he took out four hundred yuan from his pocket and stuffed it into her, and persuaded her, forget it, don't be angry, the store should be bought for you to relax.
When Aiyun heard this, he became even more irritable, and immediately threw the money in front of his lover, saying that you have too much money to spend in our family? If you want to be idle and relax, I can't go with others to play waist drums and twist Yangge? My lover has no problem, so I say what do you say? Aiyun is unreasonable, and goes to the lame man to get the 7,000 yuan back, and we can't open this shop. The lover hesitated a little, saying that this is appropriate? Aiyun said that it is suitable or not, he is lying to us.
The next morning, as soon as Aiyun went out, she saw the women who were dancing and singing as if they were celebrating some kind of festival, and they were so envious that although they didn't have as much money as her, they didn't have as many troubles as her. She could have lived better than all of them, but she had to ask for troubles and mediocrity.
She was thinking about walking like this, and happened to bump into her lame daughter-in-law at the corner of the alley. She immediately sank her face and said, Huiying, we have all known each other for many years, and you can't talk to anyone, right? When the lame daughter-in-law heard her say this, she pretended to be confused and said, "Why would I talk to you?" Aiyun said that you told me that your shop is so good and so good, but we only sold one pack of cigarettes all day yesterday. The lame daughter-in-law hurriedly said that this is impossible. Aiyunba said brutely, we don't want this store, you give us the money back. The lame daughter-in-law thought about it and said that I can't be the master. With that, he hurriedly slipped away.
The lame daughter-in-law couldn't be the master, so Aiyun went to find the lame. Aiyun ran to the lame house almost every day, and when the lame was not at home, he went to his shop to look for him, but the lame disappeared as if he was missing. In this way, Aiyun's heart became heavier and heavier.
On this day, her lover's sports car left, her son went to the night shift again, and there were people guarding the store and home, but she couldn't divide herself in half. Especially recently, several families in the community have been stolen, which can't help but worry her. In the end, she had to call her elderly mother to come and see her. Keeping watch at night by myself.
But she has a problem, and she can't sleep in another place. So, the next day, she felt dizzy, chest tightness and shortness of breath, and nausea and wanted to vomit. She hurriedly closed the shop and wanted to go home and sleep. However, as soon as I left the store, I felt a shaking in front of my eyes, and then my body went weak and I fainted to the ground.
When she woke up, she found herself lying in a hospital bed, and her son was sitting on the edge of the bed, looking worried and anxious. After the injection, my son will take her to various examinations. She knew that she just had some low blood sugar and was not seriously ill, so she didn't want to spend this unjust money. But the son said that the money had been paid, and he would not do it in vain. Helpless, she had to follow her son to do the examinations one by one, and as a result, the money cost seven or eight hundred yuan, and no disease was detected. She had a fire in her heart and nowhere to go, so she scolded the hospital for being too dark.
But what saddened her the most was that that morning, her lover said that she was old and had gray hair. As soon as she heard this, she picked up the mirror and looked at it endlessly, and sure enough, she found a few silver shiny white hairs in the thick black hair. She pulled out the gray hair one by one, but the relentless fear and sorrow of the old age of a human being was eroding her heart.
People are most afraid of aging. As soon as I feel this way, I lose my energy. Therefore, she didn't open the store for a few days, and her feelings were gloomy and depressed, just like suffering from geriatric menopause, and she would lose her temper with her lover when she had nothing to do. My lover's sports car was already hard, and when I came back and was angry with her, I felt very angry, so I persuaded her to let her store open it to her nephew in her hometown. But she said that our family is not a charity, so why should we help others to help the poor, and then forced her lover to find a cripple. My lover said very frustratedly, I finally found him, and said that I would invite him to our house for a drink. But people say it's too busy and doesn't have time.
Aiyun asked him if he had mentioned the matter of leaving the store. The lover shook his head and said that he was embarrassed to speak directly. When Aiyun heard this, she scolded hysterically, saying that I was going to make this little shop crazy, but you didn't take it seriously, do you want to make me crazy so that I can marry a yellow flower girl again? The lover was frightened by her hysteria, and said don't be angry, I'll go to find a lame. With that, he hurried out the door.
Anger and worry were exhausting, and soon, she felt exhausted and went to bed early. As soon as she thought that this little shop had tossed her like this, she gritted her teeth with hatred for the lame two. At some point, my lover came back with a full body of alcohol.
She couldn't smell this smell the most, so she wanted to be irritable, but she saw her lover shaking a lot of money in her hand. She thought that her lover's sports car came back and sent it, so she asked her lover to take the money, and it was 7,000 yuan. She wondered how her lover had sent so much money. My lover said I was lame in returning the shop. Aiyun couldn't believe it, so she asked her lover to say it again. My lover said that he was lame and returned the money from our bag shop.
When Aiyun listened, she hugged her lover and kissed him on the face several times, and then asked him what tricks he had used to lame. My lover said that I bought a bottle of good wine and went to his house, and drank with the lame, and said that you are going to let the shop get nervous. When the lame man heard this, he didn't say a word, and took out the seven thousand yuan. Hearing her lover say this, Aiyun felt that the lame person was quite willing.
She and her lover hadn't slept together for many days. Therefore, when the two sleep together, they feel that they have a lot to say. The lover said to her, Aiyun, you have suffered and been poor since you were a child, and then you went to the countryside to join the queue, participated in the work, worked hard all your life, and now that you are retired, you should also enjoy some happiness and find some fun, don't always think about working to make money, and regard yourself as a money-making machine.
Aiyun felt that her lover's words were full of warmth and warmth, so she kept nodding her head, saying that my future job is to be a good logistics for you and your son, and if you have nothing to do, you can beat the waist drum and twist Yangge with others, and you should enjoy it.
The next day, Aiyun sent 300 yuan to her lame daughter-in-law, first as a supplement to others, and then to show her humility to the breach of contract, and then the whole family went to a luxury hotel and had a meal to celebrate the beginning of her new life.
