I got off the bus with Uncle and walked along the street for a long time, until I got into a small courtyard next to a construction site, and Jiang Yizhou's future residence was in one of the small courtyards.

Carrying a large bag and a small bag, Jiang Maode took out one hand and knocked on the door of one of the courtyards, "Knock knock, knock knock, is anyone there?"

Jiang Yizhou looked at this residential area, in this era of rapid development and demolition, these courtyards are no different from rural villages, and they are just suburbs.

Some of the dilapidated villages, or the hutongs, the smoke of cooking, and the large farmland to the south all show this fact.

In addition to looking to the north, looking at the high-rise buildings in the urban area, you can feel that this is the city.

"Squeak~~"

The courtyard gate was made of iron, and it didn't sound like anything was wrong, and although it was loud, it wasn't too harsh.

What came out was a young man, in his twenties, with frighteningly white skin, and a thin man, wearing glasses, dressed in Sven, and feeling a bit of melancholy and illness as described in the book.

"Ahem, it's Uncle Jiang, I'm back so early, ahem," the young man saw Jiang Maode, temporarily refreshed a little, and then turned his gaze to Jiang Yizhou's side, "This is ......"

Jiang Maode put a smile on his face, put down the pocket in his hand, hugged the shoulder of the nephew next to him, and patted him hard, "This is my nephew, named Jiang Yizhou, who plans to work with me." ”

Jiang Yizhou felt the strength in his uncle's hand, and he also complied with his wishes, straightened his waist, and nodded twice to the landlord.

The landlord's eyes swirled back and forth between the two, and he slowly believed the person brought by Jiang Maode, "I said okay, you can't make noise, you can't cause trouble, you can't litter, you can't destroy things, I don't care about the rest." ”

"Of course, of course, my nephew is very honest, he eats, works and sleeps all day long," Jiang Maode is naturally everything, Jiang Yizhou is indeed very honest, there is nothing to worry about, except for worrying that he has been deceived.

When the landlord let the door open for the two of them to enter, he turned around and went back to his room, the door and window closed, as if he was doing something unseemly in the house.

"Uncle, why does this landlord feel weird?" Jiang Yizhou subconsciously became a little curious about him.

Jiang Maode was still surprised, pursed the corners of his mouth, and squeezed towards the few houses where the landlord was, "People in this city are hypocritical, it seems to be said that they were dumped, and they went crazy for a while, and then they slowly got better, although they didn't cause trouble to their families, but after that, they were all bored in the house and rarely came out, and they couldn't listen to the noise!"

For a real person like Jiang Maode, what is it if he is tricked, Lao Tzu got married on a blind date, and his wife ran away with someone, it is not that there is nothing at all, people have to live after all.

As for why and how to live, you have to live first, and only by ensuring that you are alive can you think about these problems, and Jiang Maode is now earning a sum of pension money, and in a few years, he will go back to his hometown to find a job like guarding the gate, with food and housing, and it will be fine.

Picking up his luggage, Jiang Maode led his nephew towards a large room next to the main house where the landlord was, it seems that the rent is not expensive, otherwise for a thrifty person like the uncle, he would not rent this kind of house with some extra land.

......

The quiet city has not yet bustled, from the morning to the end of tidying, this alley has always been quiet, occasionally someone shouts, and it can be heard loudly from afar.

"Uncle, what are you going to eat at noon?" After following Uncle for several hours, Jiang Yizhou felt a little hungry.

Jiang Maode faced his nephew's serious question, looked at the clock hanging on the wall, and it was indeed time for lunch, "It's okay, aren't there two baked cakes left?" ”

This habit of eating leftovers, Jiang Yizhou still can't help but vomit, the older generation is reluctant to throw it away, so why do you make so much, or buy so much?

He eats as much as he wants, except for egg fried rice, which needs to be eaten overnight, and the others have no habit of putting the meal to the next meal.

"Is there a pen and paper at home?" Jiang Yizhou was a little anxious to write down all the information about the future in his mind, and when he arrived at the place where the uncle was his home, he thought about how he should have a notepad and a pen to keep accounts and write letters, but he took advantage of the cleaning of the house and looked for it by the way, but he didn't find anything.

"Pen, what do you want that thing for? I can't read. Jiang Maode looks very natural, it is indeed like this, for their generation, most of them dropped out of school early and returned home to help the family earn work and build the country.

These years have been opened, and I have come to the big city to work hard, and there are fellow townsmen who keep accounts, and I am not afraid that he will give it to him or he will return to his hometown, and he will not be poked in the backbone, in short, there is no need for that, and there is no such idea, he is a hard-working person who knows how to plant seedlings and how to paint walls and bricks.

"Oh, I see, is there a pen and paper seller around here?"

Jiang Maode waved his hand carelessly, "If you want to buy it, I'll give you some money and find it yourself, by the way, what do you want these things for?"

"If you don't do anything, just keep a diary, learn things, and when you go to a big city, it's always good to learn something!" Jiang Yizhou said with a shy face, so as not to be scolded for seeking progress!

Jiang Yizhou sighed, the starting point of this life is really low, and he can't help but miss his parents in his previous life.

"No matter how poor you are, I will provide for the two of you to finish college, as long as you study hard and have a future career!"

In his previous life, his father only went to the third grade of primary school, but he paid special attention to the education of his children, although he didn't earn much money from part-time work, but he still gritted his teeth and sent his two children to college, otherwise even if he crossed over to become a billionaire, he was just an uneducated farmer inside.

Now I am at least educated in college, I can't say that my IQ is higher than others, but the breadth of vision and knowledge, as well as the ability to learn are the harvest of my own education, maybe in this era I can find business opportunities more, opportunistic shortcuts are the way after all, and conforming to the general trend is the right way, no matter in which era, even if it is the first opportunity, but in the end it still falls on its own ability, insufficient ability, and it will not be implemented after all.

"Let's eat, go outside and wash your hands!" The old man pushed Jiang Yizhou, who was a little fascinated by things, pointed to the pool outside, and said.

Jiang Yizhou obediently washed his hands, entered the house and sat down at the table, lunch was eaten alive with the leftover baked cakes on the train, and now dinner was boiled white rice porridge and a jar of pickles pickled by the old man himself.
