Chapter Twenty-Nine: Qinggang Town
As early as when the three of them met at the gate of the factory, Liu Weiguo's eyes were mostly on Chen Aihong, who was outstandingly dressed, after all, everyone has a love for beauty, and there is a young and ordinary Ye Zhizhi next to her, Chen Aihong is not as good as Ye Zhizhi in terms of appearance, but she is in her prime and has developed well, and now she is even more brilliant when she dresses up.

Every time Chen Aihong's gaze swept over, Liu Weiguo unconsciously raised his head and chested, and the two of them officially talked, with a smile on their faces that was strong and calm, and both of them subconsciously ignored Ye Zhizhi who was standing on the side.
Looking at the two of them who were shy, Ye Zhizhi felt that the air around him was gradually turning pink and sweet, and he couldn't help but sigh again that it was good to be young, it was really nostalgic for the good times, and he completely forgot that he was only in his early sixteenth year now.
The three of them chatted briefly for a few more words before they dispersed, Ye Zhizhi went back to the dormitory, dragged the luggage to the bed to tidy up, there was not much bedding in the summer, just a bed of broken mattresses and bamboo mats woven by his uncle and grandfather, there were two sets of new clothes inside and out, and two sets of patched old clothes, as long as they were clean, she brought them, this is not the time to be poor and exquisite, the conditions are like this, although there are not as many people with patched clothes as a few years ago, there are many people, and no one can laugh at anyone.
The rest is the basin hot water bottle and other necessities, she originally planned to find her uncle and grandfather to make a wooden basin, but she didn't expect that because she recruited a job, Aunt Chen specially sent a new one, originally Zhao Xiuju wanted to change the old basin that touched the paint at home to her, but was later stopped by Grandpa Chen.
If you want the horse to run, you have to give it grass first, a little benefit, Grandpa Chen is still willing to give it, not to mention a new pot, the two daughters-in-law are staring at it, and it is not for anyone, it is better to give it to Ye Zhizhi to save trouble.
What Ye Zhizhi likes the most is a bamboo shell hot water bottle, Chen's household hot water is all freshly burned, and there is no hot water bottle. This bottle was brought back by my uncle, and the bamboo shell was painted with red paint, which was specially prepared for her, and she used to think that the most old-fashioned thermos bottle was the kind of red tin shell painted with red peonies.
The rest were small items, and the two dollars she had saved bought an enamel basin and toothpaste, soap, shampoo, etc., and in the end there were six cents left.
I have to lose Chen Zhishu to buy these things, because Chen Aihong also has to buy things, and they are directly purchased by the team, and they are brought to her easily.
Put the things together, Ye Zhizhi looked at the lack of things, and there were a lot of grave tents on other bed frames, but Zhao Xiuju was reluctant to share her even the mosquito nets that had turned black and patched at home, Grandma Chen hated her because she almost beat Chen Jianye, so naturally she would not prepare these for her, and she had no money or tickets to buy the new one now, so she could only wait next to her first.
Ye Zhizhi looked at the big tree outside the window, and couldn't help sighing, she promised the old man to hand over two-thirds of a month's salary, and the rest of the money could be at her disposal.
As soon as she thought of this, her mood immediately brightened up, she thought that she was not a very open-minded person, and if she continued to grind in the Chen family, she really didn't know what she would be aggrieved into.
The problems that can be solved with money are not a problem, handing over the salary to Grandpa Chen is helpless, but it also helps her avoid a lot of trouble to a certain extent, she didn't expect that salary to be kept in her own hands, she has her own plans, or have to find other ways to save a little money.
Not long after cleaning up, Chen Aihong stood at the door and called her, "Erjiao, it's still early, let's go out for a walk?"
The distillery is built on the edge of Qinggang Town, which is next to the Xiangjiang River and much more prosperous than Qiaotou Town, which is next to a tributary of the Xiangjiang River.
Two people locked the door and sat in the dormitory reading Liu Weiguo said a word and left the factory, there are many shops in Qinggang Town to hang collectives, and even a few doors are connected to a piece, all the way to the past there are those who sell scales, some sell cloth, and there is a collective non-staple food store, and then go inside There is a wood factory with a cooperative brand, there are a lot of finished and semi-finished products in the courtyard, and some people buy door panels in the courtyard, and they are bargaining.
Ye Zhizhi knew that her uncle and grandfather could make money by making bamboo strips and sending cooperatives, but there was no shop selling bamboo and wood in Qiaotou Town, she thought that the purchasing station would send it directly to the city, but she didn't expect that there would be a factory here, and it could also be retailed, and there was actually a shoe factory when she walked over.
"It's really big here, and there are so many factories, it's not worse than the county. Ye Zhizhi was a little surprised, she had stayed in Chenjiawan for so long, she had only been to Qiaotou Town, and even the last time she came to the exam, she went back immediately after the exam, and she never thought that a small town could be so prosperous.
"I heard my dad say that there are big ships here in Qinggang, and they are close to the provincial capital next to the river, so they are willing to build the factory here, and there is a shipyard on the river embankment. Chen Aihong took Ye Zhizhi's hand and looked left and right, even if she couldn't buy anything, she was full of interest.
Understood, Ye Zhizhi nodded, the traffic at this time is not like that of later generations, four cars can walk side by side on the road, just the potholed road in Chenjiawan, pedestrians passing by when crossing the minibus, the waterway is indeed much more convenient than the land road, and it can also suffer less bumps.
"Hey, comrade!" The two were walking slowly, and Chen Aihong was caught up and dragged from behind.
"Oh, what are you doing?" The person pulled the person was a short man in his forties with glasses, dressed in a formal people's suit, and a dark blue apron tied around his waist. "Who are you, pulling and pulling on the street, what kind of heart do you have!"
Zheng Furen was seen as a hooligan by the female comrades, and he was so anxious that he broke out in a cold sweat, but fortunately, the little girl standing next to the female comrades was very calm. "Don't worry, he may have something, what can he do in broad daylight, not to mention that there is the Public Security Bureau over there. ”
"Yes, yes, exactly. Zheng Furen wiped his sweat, lifted his somewhat frayed glasses, and smiled at Chen Aihong flatteringly.
"Then what do you say you want to do, if you don't tell a reason, you have to follow me to see the police!" Chen Aihong has never been pulled like this when she is so old, although she knows that there are bad people in broad daylight, and she doesn't dare to do anything on the street, but she is still scared, this will calm down, and her heart is still pounding.
"Something, something. Zheng Furen stretched out his hand and pointed to the shop at the turn of the intersection. "The customer in my store has taken a fancy to you, and I want to invite you to the store to discuss. ”
There was a sign of a sewing shop in Qinggang Town hanging at the door of the store, and Chen Aihong was immediately happy, happy that someone appreciated her clothes, but she was reluctant to go to the store. "If they like you to do it, what do you want me to do, I won't let people do it. ”
Zheng Furen was also a little embarrassed, he could indeed imitate seventy percent at a rough glance, but the two ancestors in the store disagreed, and insisted that he invite his comrades back.
That's the leader's wife, and he can't afford to be offended.
