Chapter 30: The Clerk's Family Banquet (1)
"Come on, smoke one." Li Changdong said.
I don't usually smoke by the riverside, but eating used to be a problem, so where can I have spare money to buy cigarettes to smoke. Seeing that the village party secretary handed over the good cigarettes, Jiangbian took it easily.
Li Changdong hurriedly lit the lighter again, this was to personally light a cigarette by the river.
Jiangbian saw that Li Changdong was so polite, and hurriedly held the cigarette between two fingers, "Li Zhishu, Li Zhishu, I, I'll just come by myself." ”
"Come, come, you're welcome, Uncle Li should thank you so much! If it weren't for you, we wouldn't have been able to come up yesterday, boy, that's good. Li Changdong resolutely lit a good cigarette by the river.
Jiangbian had to bite the bullet and light the cigarette, inhaled violently, a large puff of smoke was inhaled into his lungs, Jiangbian didn't smoke a few times, where could he stand it, and immediately choked violently.
"You don't smoke, what do you charge?" Li Yueji glanced at the riverside, she didn't have much affection for smoking.
But Li Yueji's natural expression shocked Li Changdong's heart, how could this look be so similar to when Tao Xiutian looked at himself? Don't you have feelings for your daughter after being rescued by this kid surnamed Jiang? This has to be prevented.
If the family situation by the river is slightly better, and then the people are also more industrious, if the two of them get better, Li Changdong is not unacceptable, the key is that the Jiangbian family is already so bad that it can't be worse, and then he is also a well-known lazy man in the village. I don't like to work when I'm young, so I know how to engage in some crooked ways. No way! I'll have to work it out with my mother-in-law.
Thinking of this, Li Changdong said a few words, then walked into the kitchen and talked to his mother-in-law.
As soon as Li Changdong left, only Li Yueji and Jiangbian were left in the hall. Jiangbian usually talks a lot, but when he stays with Li Yueji, he can't always find a topic. Jiang Bian felt that he and Li Yueji were people of two worlds, and he couldn't find a common topic at all. It's not as easy as when I'm with Liu Huijun, even if I catch a loach, it can trigger the topic of inheritance.
Li Yueji didn't know what to say to Jiangbian. Since junior high school, the two have had different life trajectories, and naturally there is something incompatible between the two people. But this disaster made the two people intersect.
"Did you go to the town to sell fish that day?" Li Yueji suddenly found a topic.
Jiangbian naturally knew that Li Yueji was referring to the first time he went back to sell fish, and he happened to meet Li Yueji returning to school.
"yes. But that was my first time selling fish. ”
"Really? What do you think? Sold for a lot of money! Li Yueji became interested.
"Okay, lucky enough to come across a wild fish collector. The price was good. Jiangbian smiled slightly. Speaking of fish, Jiangbian's self-confidence seems to have improved a lot.
Li Yueji's interest also increased, and the girl's curiosity to get to the bottom of it was also raised, "Tell me, how much was it sold that day?" ”
Jiangbian didn't hide it, "It's okay, I bought more than two thousand." The main thing is that those two old turtle fish are worth a lot. ”
Li Yueji didn't have much economic acumen, and at first he thought it would be very good to be able to sell it for one or two hundred yuan, but he didn't expect Jiangbian to earn so much at one time, "So much?" You sell fish once more than my salary in a month! ”
The salary of teachers is not very high, especially for a young teacher like Li Yueji, who has not worked for a long time and has a low professional title.
Fortunately, the consumption in the town is not very high, and Li Yueji can barely maintain it when he goes home for a few days every month.
"How can it! Just this time, there is more money, soft-shelled turtles can't be sold too much, and the income from soft-shelled turtles is much less later, so it's very good to have a few hundred yuan. ”
"That's not bad! If you go every few days, you can earn a lot of money in a month. After a year or two, you can repair the house! Li Yueji said.
Jiangbian nodded, "That's what I said. Where are your teachers, drought and flood protection, two days off a week, and winter and summer vacations, so that the children can be nourished! ”
Li Yueji glanced at the kitchen, and lowered her voice a little, "What's good, tell you, I want to go out to work." Many of my classmates quit their jobs and went to the coast for development, and in less than a year, several of my classmates have bought cars and houses! I'm also feeling like going out. ”
Li Yueji was afraid that his parents would hear about it, but he knew that even this non-salty job was only obtained by Li Changdong after giving up his old book. If he knew that Li Yueji wanted to resign and go to work, Li Changdong would be crazy.
"You want to quit your job like this? No one else can think of it. You see that you are now working in the town and have become an authentic city person, if you go to work, isn't it no different from us farmers? Kawabe said.
"You can't say that. Now the peasants who are doing a good job are no worse than the people in the cities. Isn't it true that there are also difficulties in the city? I think that people should go out boldly while they are young. In fact, you are the same, you have a good skill in fishing, if you go to a more developed place, wouldn't it be better to sell? For example, if you rent a house in the town and go fishing in the Lulu River every day, wouldn't it be more convenient to sell fish, and wouldn't the monthly income be higher? Li Yueji said.
Jiangbian looked at Li Yueji a little strangely, not that what Li Yueji said gave him a huge impact, but that he didn't expect that Li Yueji, such a well-mannered person, would have so many profit-seeking ideas and have such great ambitions. According to Jiangbian's idea, people like Li Yueji should be the kind of fairy who doesn't eat fireworks in the world.
"Why are you looking at me like that? Don't you know? Or did you listen to what I said? Li Yueji looked at Jiangbian and looked at herself blankly, and said with a smile.
Jiangbian shook his head, "No, I haven't thought about it yet, I want to fish at home first, a few days ago, I dug a pond at home, and I tried to raise fish first." Look at it slowly. ”
Li Yueji looked at the riverside with some regret, "That's okay, but the transportation in our mid-mountain village is a little inconvenient, and it's really inconvenient for you to sell fish back and forth!" My dad told me to go home as little as possible in the future, because it wasn't safe to take the boat. ”
"It's okay! I won't have a problem falling into the sea. Jiangbian smiled.
Li Yueji's face suddenly turned red, and she remembered the situation of saving herself underwater by the river, "Also, your surname Shui is good." ”
In the kitchen of Li Yueji's house, it was hot.
Tao Xiutian saw Li Changdong walking in, and said with a smile, "I don't usually see you come in, why don't you accompany the guests outside today, why did you run in?" ”
Li Changdong smiled awkwardly, then leaned into Tao Xiutian's ear and was about to speak.
Unexpectedly, Tao Xiutian had a misunderstanding, "You are old and unserious, what are you doing?" Don't you see I'm busy? Hurry up and go out with the guests, don't come here to make trouble. ”
"You mother-in-law! I have something to tell you! ”
"What a word, you can't say it well." Tao Xiutian didn't believe Li Changdong, in fact, she didn't dislike Li Changdong at all, she followed this very modest guy at the beginning, but she felt that he had an interest in understanding.
