Chapter 724: Helping the Needy
In the park, there is a bronze statue of the leader of the previous generation of the Southern Dynasty, with a height of more than five meters, one hand behind his back, combing his big back head, at a glance, he knows that it is very imposing, pointing to the direction of the people's progress, between the sparse forests, there is a three-story new building, which is where women do business.

The woman asked Ling Yang to call her Aunt Cai, saying that her ancestral home was also in the northeast of Huaguo, and she came here to do business very early, and she was very familiar with the things on the ground in Liujing.
Ling Yang was surprised: "When the little nephew was walking around Nanpu City, he had an aunt who did the same business as you, also called Aunt Cai, why did you have the same name?" It's really fate! ”
Aunt Cai smiled and said: "We do a line, and the little girls under our hands are called 'Sister Cai'er', and those of us who are mothers are naturally called Aunt Cai." It's just a common name in the industry, just like the coolies who carry coal bags in the coal mine are called "mules", or the masters who do water fishing and quantum trading, called "fish teeth", which is the same reason. It's already good to eat this ninth-rate meal, to be able to mix a flower name, and not to be trampled on. ”
Ling Yang finally gained knowledge again, and when he was living to learn from old age, he had already followed Aunt Cai to the bottom of the three-story small building, and saw that the building was actually covered with a layer of white plastic paper, which seemed to be glued on, completely wrapped the entire building, and painted bright brick wall colors on it. Where the cracks are made, traces of old walls can be faintly seen.
It was the first time for Ling Yang to see such a building, and he felt very novel and interesting: "What do you do with a picture posted outside the house, is it beautiful?" ”
"For the sake of good looks, of course!" Aunt Cai explained: "Don't look at Liujing as the capital of the Southern Dynasty, and the city is also in tatters. This generation of leaders pays attention to urban construction and planning, but the poor in the finances can't come up with a penny, and the rats have to come out with tears in their eyes when they go in and walk around. In time for the New Year, the Urban Renewal Bureau issued orders everywhere that buildings that are more than 20 years old must be pasted with fake pictures on the outside to pretend to be new buildings. All this money was taken out of the eldest sister's pocket, these goddamn bastards! ”
Ling Yang sighed: "I didn't expect such a ridiculous thing to happen in the heart of a country, I'm really drunk." ”
Aunt Cai took out the key, opened an inconspicuous locked side door, and said with a smile: "There are a lot of ridiculous things here, you will know when you stay for a long time." But brother, don't get drunk, yesterday there happened to be a few young sisters from Yizhou, brother, you try to work, just treat you as a sister! ”
Ling Yang hurriedly shook his hand and said, "Don't sister, my brother is not good at this." Besides, I didn't come alone, I brought my family with me. ”
Aunt Cai let Ling Yang into the house, despised Ling Yang and said, "Now there are fast food restaurants everywhere, why do you still bring your own instant noodles, brother?" But then again, there aren't many good men like you these days! ”
Aunt Cai tugged on the light rope, and the roof remembered the characteristic hum of old-fashioned light bulbs. I saw that the room was neat and tidy, there were no miscellaneous decorations, and there were portraits of the leaders of the Southern Dynasty hanging on the wall without any suspense. On the dresser, the board is dedicated to the Tang Dynasty's Gongsun Aunt, incense burners, candles, fruits and pastries are readily available, at a glance, you can see that it is the old rules that Hua Guogan believes in.
"This is my room, and no one usually comes, so it's a mess, and it hasn't been cleaned up."
Aunt Cai chattered, opened the refrigerator, and rummaged through the food and drinks that entertained Ling Yang.
Ling Yang carefully looked at the statue of Gongsun Auntie, only to see the painted portrait of a Tang Dynasty woman, carved lifelike, every expression on the human face, even the folds on the ribbon clothes, are meticulously carved, and you can know the hard work at a glance.
Aunt Gongsun is said to be a Hu woman in the Tang Dynasty, good at sword dance, once in the Jinluan Palace, for several generations of emperors to perform sword dancing tricks. Gongsun Auntie has a huge troupe under her hands, which are all delicate and graceful girls, often in and out of the deep mansion courtyards of various princes and nobles, not only performing songs and dances, but also for the wives and concubines of the deep house, privately teaching the secret art in the room, which is to be the place of fireworks that has been used by later generations, and is enshrined as the ancestor of this industry.
When Ling Yang was in Tangyuan County, he saw Sister Hong's "chain store", which also enshrined such a statue, but it was not so exquisite.
Aunt Cai held a large wooden tea tray containing plastic beef jerky, melon seeds, peanuts and preserved fruits, carried two bottles of bottled cocktails from Hua Guolai, put them on the coffee table in front of the sofa, and beckoned Ling Yang to come over for a bite to eat.
Ling Yang has never known how to be polite, seeing Aunt Cai so hospitable, it is obviously rare to meet fellow villagers in Liujing, he is happy from the bottom of his heart, and he is very moved in his heart, and he touched the wine bottle with Aunt Cai, and drank most of the slightly sweet concocted alcoholic drinks in one gulp.
In bars and nightclubs in China, this bottled cocktail has been sold as a soft drink for ladies because of its low alcohol content and not much stronger than beer.
Aunt Cai has been squatting in the park for a long time, her body is cold, and she drank a bottle of wine: "Brother, your name is Qian Xixi, isn't that what Qian Duo means?" Your mom and dad really know how to name you. ”
The heart of guarding against people is indispensable, Ling Yang has just arrived, and he didn't dare to believe that this Chinese fellow villager who was born out of nowhere, so he had to intersect with his pseudonym, and he was a little embarrassed when he heard the words: "I don't have a father and mother, and the name was given by my grandfather, which means that I want to live a good life with plenty of food and clothing in the future." I didn't expect that I would not be angry, and I didn't follow my grandfather's hope to make a men's career in the vast world of China, but I took my family to live here, and I didn't have a penny on me, and I couldn't eat anymore......"
"The poorest is nothing more than begging for food, and if you don't die, you will eventually come out!" Aunt Cai felt pity and comforted: "The pulsatilla is miserable, and the young man is poor. I see that brother, you are not very old, it is a good time to be in your prime, why don't you eat? As long as you are willing to endure hardships and can endure the poor days, sooner or later you will be able to ride the wind and make a career! ”
Aunt Cai's room was indeed very messy, and the underwear she was wearing and feminine products were thrown everywhere, so she took out a few gold rings from the gap in the sofa cushion for a while, and stuffed them into Ling Yang's hand together with a thick stack of francs in her pocket: "You take it and use it first, and settle your family well." If the brother doesn't dislike Aunt Cai's business, come to me to help, and slowly find a more satisfying job in the future, eldest sister supports you! ”
