When I got home, lunch was already steaming in the pot, and the smell of rice dissipated in the room as the air mischievously ran out of the kitchen.

Yang's family is not large, and it is a house allocated by a state-owned factory for employees. The exterior of the old house has the smell of a former Soviet tube building, the bare façade is sprinkled with creepers, and the green leaves and gray wall tiles are slightly worn in the sun.

Twenty years ago, the new building could not withstand the wind and rain, and it was in a dilapidated state in the face of time like the Langya Auto Repair Factory.

The independent kitchen is Zhou Aiping's favorite place, and the small space belongs to her alone, so she doesn't have to share the kitchen with others. Feel free to show your cooking skills and cook for the family.

It's not a bathroom, the function can only be described as a toilet, the toilet is two common, a gray and white wall corridor is tacitly separated from it, and their items are stacked separately. A few pieces of black coal were stacked on the side of the kitchen door, stacked on a layer of cardboard, on which Zhou Aiping bought fresh vegetables in the morning.

In the room, my grandfather and the third sister were watching a TV series, and the rebroadcast of "SH Beach" on TV attracted the eyes of the third sister. My grandfather has already "rested" from the factory, and he is at home every day, and the temperature is hot at noon in summer, and he watches TV with his granddaughter at home.

The old man also watched with relish, and in 87 the new "Dream of Red Mansions" was released, which is a good work that can be watched by all ages, and Yang Quan is also a must-see every day. It's a pity that the 14-inch black-and-white Kaige TV can't see the beautiful costumes, and it wastes the director's efforts.

Seeing Zhou Aifu coming back, the third sister got up from her grandfather's lap, hugged Zhou Aifu's arm and sat down affectionately, and sat leaning between the two.

As for Yang Quan, he has been neglected...

Except for the two days when she just came back, the third sister stuck to her brother, and then basically didn't ask. The reason is that Yang Quan has always thought that his backpack has been turned over, and there are no gifts and snacks.

What's the use of going home and not bringing gifts to your sister-in-law......?

Zhou Aiping rested at home at noon, and today she specially burned her brother's favorite scrambled eggs with tomatoes. Yellow and white eggs are mixed in the middle of the tomatoes, and the contrast of colors attracts the appetite. Tomato and egg soup is not much, but it is the best choice for soaking rice, pouring the red broth over the white rice, mixing well and taking a bite. The sweet and sour soup fills the taste buds, and I can't wait to eat it all in one bite.

When I was young, my family was poor, I was reluctant to eat eggs, everyone couldn't eat oil, and half of the young men were hungry every day. This dish that can't be eaten in the commune, and once in a while, scrambled eggs with tomatoes have become Zhou Aifu's favorite that he will never forget.

Although life is still very hard now, life is gradually getting better. Although you are frugal, you will not be unable to afford a good meal.

At lunch, Zhou Aifu and a few people said that they would go to Jinling tomorrow and take Yang Quan with them.

After all, Yang Quan has studied in Jinling for several years, and he is relatively familiar with the road. At least three jumpers will not be detoured, and the right to be the guide.

The third sister stuffed rice in her mouth and said that she wanted to go too, but she was ruthlessly refused. If you come back after a day out, you can bring a drag oil bottle, and if you bring another one, it will add to the chaos.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The next day, the two rushed to the bus station in the early morning.

Langya City is not far from Jinling, so you can start a little faster in the morning, and you can rush back at noon. In summer, the dawn is fast, and the first train departs early.

The dilapidated bus dangled on the oil road for more than an hour before arriving in Jinling, the two went out early and have not eaten a drop of water until now, and directly found a breakfast shop to sit down after getting off the bus.

Outside the station, there are large and small breakfast snack bars everywhere, and you can choose to give food stamps or money for meals. Although the environment is a little worse, the amount and taste are not worse than those made by yourself.

When I arrived in Jinling, the breakfast choice was similar to that of Langya, the distance between the two places was similar, and the taste was basically the same. Five miles of different winds, ten miles of different customs, that is talking about the southern region of Anhuai Province, at noon is basically low hills, so everyone is basically the same habit.

Jinling breakfast is varied, egg fried rice, beef noodles, noodles, buns, dumplings, wontons, etc., as long as you can think of it, it will definitely be found.

Today, Yang Quan especially wanted to eat xiaolongbao and sat outside a steamed bun shop. The outside temperature has not yet risen, and sitting in the shadow of the wall, the store serves two steaming xiaolongbao and spicy soup.

Dip it in vinegar and suck the warm soup, and after sucking it, you can eat it in one bite, and the taste is full of imagination.

After the two finished eating, the uncle paid the bill, and Yang had no money in his body, so he didn't have to rush to pay. If you don't have money, you can't be real, you don't need to act. Breakfast for five cents, not expensive.

Beckoning and shouting a three-jumper, the three-jumper is the common name of the BJ people, in fact, it is a tricycle. Because you have to step on every start, and when you add oil when you start, the exhaust pipe will make a rattling sound. The name is different in different places, and Langya City calls it Mazda.

In 87, he drove three jumpers in Jinling, and the status of driving a taxi in the 21st century is the same, according to a social and occupational survey at the time, the most enviable job taxi driver seems to be on the top three, of course, this taxi driver may be saying that he is driving a big yellow face in BJ.

However, there are very few four-wheeled faces such as Jinling Dafa, and basically the three jumpers are the first choice for going out.

Zhou Aifu's destination is Bank of China, and the purpose of coming here today is to withdraw money, and Yang Quan is responsible for carrying the bag. Yang Quan entered the role of an assistant in advance and learned life experience with Zhou Aifu.

It's really expensive, three jumpers will run for this small meeting, and more than two dollars are gone. Yang Quan thought in his heart that in this era, the people who sat on the three jumps were all rich people, and ordinary people could only choose buses and trams.

But after more than ten years, people will find that the value of the bun has increased several times, and the price of the bun has only risen to five yuan.

Jinling Bank of China, QH District, the state of splendid Jiangnan Province.

Zhou Aifu took out two passbooks and withdrew a total of 30,000 yuan. Yang Quan thought that his uncle had been mixing well outside in the past few years, but he didn't expect it to be so powerful.

Because he remembered that there were several passbooks in Zhou Aifu's bag, and these two would withdraw 30,000 yuan, which would be more than 100,000 yuan, and the entire car would be enough to go home.

In 1987, the fourth set of renminbi was issued, but the maximum denomination is still 50 yuan, and the 100 yuan denomination of the four heads has not yet been issued.

Brand-new bundles of 50 yuan bills were neatly stacked, and the light green heads of three people, workers, peasants, and intellectuals, came into view. Yang Quan watched intently as Zhou Aifu put the money into his backpack, he had paid more money than this when he bought a house in later generations, but it was only bigger than it in denomination.

The real conversion of these 30,000 is a little more valuable than his own 700,000.

This money carries weight!
