Chapter 465: Everyone's Business
"Old man Zhang, how much savings do you have in your pocket, just get married to Zhang Luo?" the fat man rode a jujube and accosted the old man Zhang in the car.
Zhang Laohan folded his fingers and calculated: "There is still 60 yuan and less than 100 yuan!"
The fat man almost fell off his horse: "40 yuan, come on, you should pay back the 200 yuan I lent you first." The people in the carriage in front of him were also laughing.
"I'm just alone, what's the use of saving money, it's better to play two taels of soju - fatty, don't you have eight thousand in your schoolbag, and taking out a small half is enough for me to get married." "Zhang Laohan regrets it a little late now, just these forty yuan, it is still left after going to the deer farm to play the shift. The main reason is that there is no small store in Gushantun, and it is inconvenient to buy things, otherwise you can't save it.
The fat man patted his schoolbag: "Okay, don't worry about your old age, go back and ask the boss uncle to give you Zhang Luo, keep it decent and save money - but we have to keep an account of this expense, and you two will have to pay it back in the future." β
"Cheng!" Zhang Laohan happily agreed, anyway, he thought in his heart: At such an old age, fat man, you can't ask us to drink the northwest wind, let's pay the debt slowly.
The fat man observed his words and looks, and soon understood Zhang Laohan's thoughts, so he coughed vigorously: "Don't try to cheat, don't you always want a son, anyway, this account can't be yellow, and the father and son will pay the debt." β
Zhang Laohan wilted all of a sudden: "Listen to you, the more money you save, the better." β
Back at the backer, the fat man reported the matter to the car boss and Captain Li, and the car boss pondered for a long time: "Another 200 yuan is about the same." β
"So saving?" the fat man thought he would have to get at least 1,2000.
"You calculate, for the time being, let them live in the east and west houses with the old revolutionary, that is, re-paste the walls, buy some red paper and cut out two happy words, basically no money;
"It doesn't cost anything, and the 200 yuan won't cost it. The fat man also smiled.
"I have to buy some pots and pans and bedding or something, Old Man Zhang is purely self-made. "The car boss has long known this.
The fat man took out another 200 yuan: "Uncle boss, let's get all the things together when we go to the market, and I'll arrange a few half-sized children to clean up the house." β
Captain Li patted his buttocks: "Don't be idle, first put aside the loudspeaker and shout, mobilize the masses, when there is something to produce something, and if there is nothing to contribute, boss, wait for two days to buy something, in case you send a warm pot, he will send a quilt or something, won't it be saved again." β
Soon, Captain Li's voice came from the loudspeaker: "Everyone, pay attention, the old bachelor Zhang Laohan in our village is looking for a wife, and the date is set - fatty, what day is it?"
The fat man shouted vigorously: "The 12th of this month, the solar calendar." β
"Yes, it's the 12th of the solar calendar, and there are still six or seven days to go. Everyone knows Zhang Laohan's situation, if you want money or not, if you want people, there is no one, so this matter is our everyone's business, and no one is allowed to see the excitement!"
The villagers all stood in the courtyard and listened: "Haha, everyone's business, who is it after marrying someone?" β
"Also, whoever wants to give a congratulatory gift, Ma sneaks to the car boss to report it, and saves it when you buy something; β
When the fat man heard this, he hurriedly added: "Those who are ready to be Sui Li don't need to report first, and those who are ready to take things will sign up." β
As soon as the notice ended, each household began to discuss. Zhang Laohan is more special, taking things is the same as taking money. In fact, there is a bit of old inventory at the bottom of the box in each household, so they all start to rummage through the cabinets.
At that time, it was also popular to send things for happy events, basin warmers or something, if the popularity was good, the children in the family got married, and they could receive more than ten pots. If you can't use it at home, you won't open it, and you can save some money by leaving it for someone else's errands and sending it back.
When the fat man slipped to the boss's house, he saw that there were already several people in the house, and the little grandson of the car boss was biting the pencil head and asking, "Grandpa, how do you write the soap characters in the soap box?" The little guy has just entered the second grade, and he doesn't know much words.
"If I could write, I'd still use youβit's different to write a pancreatic box. The car boss's literacy is also limited, and he suddenly stood up his eyes.
"Master, the pancreas of the pancreas can't write. The little guy said with a twitch in his face.
"Alright, don't suffer from this crime, give it to Uncle Fat. The fat man pulled the little one aside and began to register the items.
Not to mention, everyone's enthusiasm is really high, four quilts were sent, two mattress surfaces, two pairs of embroidered pillowcases, and a thread blanket. Just buy some cotton for bedding.
The car boss handed these things to the boss: "It's enough to find a few old ladies to make two sets of luggage, and use the cotton we saved for the old boy first, and then make up for it when we buy it." β
These aunts and aunts are experts in making bedding, and three or five people can make it in a day, just like playing.
The fat man went on to write: "Two hot water bottles, a pair of soap boxes, a pair of mirrors on plastic shelves, four basins, two mandarin ducks playing in the water with the word "Xi", and two of them write Long live the proletarian revolution - hehe, buy a pot, buy some dishes and chopsticks, and the kitchen supplies are almost the same." β
Captain Li smacked his lips: "Look, how much money can be saved, this time it is estimated that a hundred is enough." Fatty, also write me a pig, the old and difficult problems have been solved, and I have to have some blood as the captain. When the food is served, there is no meat to make people laugh. β
The fat man gave him a thumbs up and wrote it down for him in his notebook. The little grandson of the car boss stretched out his brain and came over to learn from the fat uncle, and he still muttered: "Captain Li is a pig." β
"While staying, didn't you see that there is a colon in the middle, what are you reading?" The fat man jumped on his brain, and the little guy shrank his neck and ran outside to play, only to hit his head head-on into the arms of the second pillar.
Erzhuzi pinched his face, and then said: "The fat man also wrote it to me, these days I just took the time to make a bowl shelf, a kang qin, and two small cabinets, just give them to Old Man Zhang." β
This gift is not light, Erzhuzi and Zhang Laohan both work in the deer farm, and they have the deepest friendship.
"Okay, I even have the furniture, now it's all right. The car boss couldn't help but praise when he saw that Captain Li's appeal was really strong.
After a while, Zhang Laohan also walked over, and he was also worried in his heart, the fat man gave him a list to read, and the old man's tears almost didn't come down.
Seeing this, the fat man hurriedly joked again: "This is your response to the call of the country, late marriage and late childbearing, which is worthy of praise." β
In the laughter, the group gradually dispersed, and the fat man went home for dinner. As soon as I entered the house, I saw Kiki teaching the parrot to speak. Yaya and Wu Qiong also went back, and when Qiqi was fine, they began to train these little guys.
Seeing the fat man, a little guy called out in a tender voice: "Fat uncle-open rice-"
Qiqi clapped his hands happily: "Haha, I can finally learn to speak." β
The fat man scratched the back of his head, feeling a little depressed: it turns out that this thing is also inherited.
Sitting on the kang head, the big braid serves a meal to everyone, the gold ring on the finger is shining, the craftsmanship of the old jeweler is really good, the ring created is beautiful and generous, and the big braid is very fond of it.
When the fat man saw Ye Ying entering the house with vegetables, he couldn't help but tease her: "Ye girl, how about looking at Xiaoyu's ring?"
Ye Ying wrinkled her nose: "Hmph, pick the door, a gold ring will fool our Xiaoyu." β
"Haha, don't worry, in two years, you will have a full set of jewelry, and you will have to have a gold necklace of at least 500 grams!" the fat man laughed proudly.
"Think about you, unless you dig a gold mine!" Ye Ying took a salted duck egg for the fat man: "Hurry up and eat it, so that you can plug your mouth." β
"Big brother, what kind of gift should we give Uncle Zhang?" asked the big pigtail while eating.
"Anyway, it's also the first batch of employees of our company, so let's just take 200 yuan, both of them are so old, they can't just get married and cause famine." "The fat man has calculated a rough idea, so that Zhang Laohan can basically make a peace, and if the two of them earn wages in the future, life will be eased.
In a flash, it was the 11th, and in the afternoon, the village was busy, all preparing for tomorrow's happy event. The fat man and Captain Li went to the new house first, and they really didn't want to say anything, they didn't lack anything.
On the wall is a freshly pasted newspaper, on the north wall is a big word, there is also one on the window outside, and there is a couplet written by a fat man on the door: the old tree sprouts new shoots, the golden autumn announces the good news; Horizontal batch of four big characters: family planning.
The things in the house are basically new, the kang mat curtains, the furniture frames, the teapots and cups, the bowl shelves in the outhouse, the pots and pans, and the curtains of the fences, just like the newly married young people. Originally, Zhang Laohan was also newly married.
Outside, the courtyard is full of earthen baskets, which are full of vegetables, as well as freshly picked mushrooms and dried vegetables from the wild vegetable factory. In the big wooden basin, there are big carp, all of them are more than three catties, which the car boss went to Nanwazi yesterday to catch back.
Chef Li Er also pondered the recipe, and the fat man leaned over: "I have white flour and soybean oil, I can fry whatever should be fried, the little babies are looking forward to it, besides, people in Dawangzhuang are also coming to their mother's house, don't make people laugh." β
"Okay, I'll rest assured with your words - three cannons, have you finished killing the pig, hurry up and bring the small intestine, I still have to have an enema." Chef Li Er was also in high spirits immediately.
Wang Sanpao was leading the two of them to kill pigs outside, and was shedding their hair, shouting in his mouth: "What are you busy with, wait for this pick-up before it's your turnββ"
The fat man laughed when he heard it, and Chef Li Er finally reacted: "Three cannons, it turns out that you are also wilted, why did I find out, turn around and scold me for being a pig, you kid want to eat my fried dishes in the future." β
"Don't be noisy, don't you see that I'm dividing the task!" As a busy brand, the car boss is practicing a group of half-sized children standing in front of him, serving dishes, pouring wine, serving rice, and lighting fires, all in an orderly and meticulous manner. At the end, he added: "This time it's for nothing, the owner didn't reward money, you know no, don't ask me for cigarettes later." β
According to the custom, those who follow the help have to give something reward, usually two boxes of cigarettes or something.
"It's everyone's business, if you don't reward it, you won't reward it. The half-sized boy replied in unison.
