Chapter 146, The Problem of Lifespan

Shu Yue went back to the company and called Li Ya, but no one answered. When I got home in the evening, I calculated the time to call, Li's mother answered the phone, Shu Yue told Li's mother about the matter, and Li's mother told her a few times before hanging up the phone.

With a flashlight, Li's mother came to the third master's house and told Li Ya that Shu Yue had already found a good company. It just so happened that Uncle Mingshan was also there, and he was very happy to hear it. To say that he has been in the village in the past few years, his position has risen and promoted, he is the number one in the village, and he has done a lot of things for the village over the years, but compared with Uncle Mingcheng, he feels that he has been compared. The production team built a pharmaceutical factory, and all the achievements in the village were compared.

This time, I specially pulled some plasterers out and set up a construction team to contract the project, which is also very good. Who told the village that there was no capital and no suitable technology? Setting up a construction team would also pay a higher salary than simply going out to work in a factory, and if it was done well, it would be possible to earn more money and come back, and the village committee would also be able to earn some income.

There is no need for Li Ya to keep vigil at night, go back to sleep, and tomorrow afternoon Mr. (Taoist) arrives, gets up the altar, and begins to have something to do. There are three kinds of excesses in opening the altar, the first is a three-day holiday, that is, the altar is opened in the evening of the first day, and the second day is one day plus the third morning, although the time spans three days, but it is not a complete three days; the second is a three-day holiday, the first day in the evening and the last day in the morning, plus the middle complete three days, that is, the five days of leave; the third type is the longest, five days and seven days off. The third type is chosen in the village, after all, it is the last three of the oldest generation, and there must be pomp and circumstance to show respect.

Mr. is on the other side of the Gate Mountain, not far away, but it does not belong to a township, Li Ya and their township and another township merged into a town, and the other two townships were not merged into a town, but still a township.

The next day, after Li Ya and the others got up, they went to the town to buy things according to the assignment of the second uncle. Fortunately, a truck was driven back from the pharmaceutical factory, otherwise it would be troublesome to drive the carriage.

At this time, there is no driver's license for driving in the countryside, as long as you can drive.

Except for the driver, only one person can sit in the truck cab, and the other people stand in the compartment, pulling the compartment. At the beginning of the village is a flat road, the faster the speed, the stronger the oncoming wind, there is a feeling of strong wind, the whole body is happy.

But soon it was uphill, the mountain road winds along the mountain, Li Yuanfang seized the opportunity to drive, the speed of the road was very fast, the stone road built during the commune, there were many puddles, and a few horseshoe-shaped sharp bends, which turned Li Ya upside down, and shouted: "You are driving, it's just fatal." When you come back, let the eldest brother drive, you guy is not the material for driving. ”

"If you go to drive for the leader, you won't be able to pass the first hurdle. The third brother said. Which leader doesn't want this kind of driver, is it good to be upside down all day?

When you get to the town, don't look at the small street market formed by just a few roads in the town, and there are many shops.

Now the supply and marketing cooperatives stop at the door, after all, the supply and marketing cooperatives have comprehensive goods, take a look here first, and then go to other stores if they are missing.

Li Ya walked in and saw that the salesperson of the supply and marketing cooperative, who was still a junior high school classmate, was talking to a few people. After a while, the other party made up his mind and paid for it, he collected the money to find the money, and his mouth kept asking, "What do you want to buy?"

Li Ya smiled: "Hu Shide, I didn't expect you to sell things here." ”

Hu Shide heard Li Ya call out his name, took his eyes back from the money in his hand, looked at Li Ya, and asked hesitantly for a while: "Are you Li Ya?"

Li Ya smiled: "Isn't it me! You are doing well, you have eaten a public meal." "The supply and marketing cooperative, but it belongs to the unit in the town, and it is also a kind of public meal. Moreover, working in the supply and marketing cooperatives is a popular position, and ordinary people can't take their turns. In the town, whether it is a hospital, a school, or other units, if you want to enter, you have to have the corresponding ability, otherwise it will be useless to enter, only the salesperson does not need to have a high diploma.

"What's a good mix? It's just a day at a time, just begging for a living. Hu Shide said, "How can you be like you, you had good grades when you were studying, and you were admitted to Tsinghua University later." When our classmates bragged, they all said that they were classmates with you back then. Hu Shide said as he counted the money and handed it to the customer.

"What's there to brag about?" Li Ya said with a smile, "I didn't read it for long, so I was expelled." ”

"Then what are you doing now?" Hu Shide asked, "You are culturally capable, and you can mix well even if you don't study." ”

"Do a little business outside. Li Ya smiled, "You can barely make a fool of things." ”

"Is there anything wrong with coming back now?" asked Hushide.

"The ancestor of the clan has passed away, and he will repay Dai Xiao. Li Ya said.

"I heard this yesterday from someone who came here to buy something. Hu Shide said, "The festival mourns and changes. ”

"Thank you. Li Ya thanked him, and then said to the eldest brother, "Big brother, where's the list? ”

Hu Shide took the list handed by his eldest brother, looked at it carefully and said, "There are only two things that are not available, and there are others." ”

"You go to work in the town, get familiar with the situation, see which of the two things you lack, and you don't have to run away. Li Ya said.

"The front is diagonally opposite the door, and the Yan's commissary is there. Hu Shide said.

The eldest brother listened and said, "I'll go buy it, and you can carry the things into the car." ”

Li Ya and they left after buying things, Hu Shide thought about what Li Ya had just said. Hu Shide, a pharmaceutical factory in their village next to the county seat, knew that whenever he went to the city, he would have to pass by that pharmaceutical factory, which was so big that it had been expanded twice over the years. If he can do it so big in the county, then Li Ya can do it small outside? If he does it small, he can come back and do it.

"What kind of world is out there?" Hu Shide thought, looking at the generosity of the people in Li Ya Village, Hu Shide was not willing to be lonely. But then he thought, "My child is in elementary school, can I go out now?"

The Seven Days Dojo tossed a few Zhengxiao enough to choke on it, and finally sent it up the mountain, and everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

The matter was done, and on the way back, the second master said, "We are behind." "The second master has bad legs and feet, so he still insists on using crutches to send him on the last ride. When the older generation is gone, he is the oldest.

"You're only eighty years old, so it's too early. The third brother comforted.

"I'm eighty, and I've lived a long life. "The second master can see it, it doesn't matter if he dies early or late. Eighty years old, how many people in the neighborhood live to be eighty years old? The vast majority of them go at the age of sixty or seventy, and they earn money by living an extra day. In the past, there was still the older generation above, and the second master didn't feel anything, but now that the older generation is gone, he found that he was also eighty years old, really old.

Looking at the expression on the young man's face, the second master smiled: "It's okay, it's just a matter of seeing it." However, if I die, don't do so many heavenly dojos and toss people. ”

When they came back, their relatives and friends had eaten and left, leaving only the people in the village. Li Ya entered the door and heard a few uncles and uncles talking about getting old. Uncle Mingzhong should be almost sixty years old, and he is almost at the age of retirement.

Li Ya said with a smile: "A small goal, live him for five hundred years first." ”

"Five hundred years, I've become an old goblin. Uncle Mingzhong said. They don't understand it.

"Actually, uncle, you're not old. Li Ya smiled, "According to the age of the second master, you still have twenty years." According to the age of the ancestors, there are still forty years to go, and only three-fifths of their lives will be gone. ”

"Do you think everyone is like your ancestors, living so long? I don't have high requirements, and I will be satisfied when I live to be eighty years old. Uncle Mingzhong said.

If you want to talk about lifespan, there are records in the old Li family, there are only five people who are hundreds of years old, including the three ancestors who have just gone, only four people who are more than 90 years old and less than 100, and there are very few people in their eighties, no more than ten people, this is still the number of people accumulated in 300 years, most of them are sixty or seventy.

Li Ya thought for a while and said, "In the past, the living conditions were not good, and living sixty or seventy is a long life. Now that the living conditions are so good, the medical conditions are good, and it is normal to live a long life. ”

"Don't live long, either. Uncle Mingcheng said, "I'm old, I'm not in good health, I can't go anywhere, I'm sick at every turn, I have no teeth, I don't have a taste to eat, and I was guilty of living at that time." "Uncle Mingcheng's thoughts, like Li's mother, don't want to live that kind of sinful life.

"If you lose your teeth, you can put on dentures. Li Ya smiled, "You can eat things with hard dentures, but you can't gnaw bones." ”

"Dentures, even if you can, can your stomach stand it?" asked Uncle Mingcheng. You can put dentures on you, he's got it.

"Stomach?" Li Ya said, "It should be bearable." Teeth aging is faster than the stomach, teeth fall out, you can eat hard things, but you have to chew finely, otherwise it will hurt your stomach. ”

After talking for a while, Li Ya turned out and came to the mahjong table to see, Li Yuanhai was not lucky, the cards were already halfway through, and he had entered two strips in a row, and he was about to make them all the same.

I touched the house, and I threw one at home, Li Yuanhai touched the row, and it was still a strip, and he beat Wanzi out, and now it is all strips.

Li Ya thought carefully for a while and said, "You can't afford to recover the cards." ”

"Xiaohai doesn't have a school card yet?" (school card, just another **)" The second brother asked, "It's okay, I don't have a school either." ”

Turn around and go to Li Yuanhai to get the card, touch it and see, the strip! Just do the general, put the nine that are not next to each other out, and now the school card. Li Ya looked at the cards that had been played in the hall, and there was still a chance.

After a while, Li Yuanhai touched the cards and looked at them, and said with a smile: "I've been waiting for you for hundreds of years, and I'm finally here!"

"It's all the same, it's okay to wait a few hundred years. Li Yuanfang said, "Look at me, I have already checked the card, what can I do if I don't resume the card? ”
