Chapter 75: Rushing into the city
Yu Mingyue knew that she was too young now, so her grandfather would not listen to her words in his heart, but if the construction of selling vegetables in the city was proposed by Director Chen Mingming, or approved by Director Chen Mingming, her grandfather would definitely do it.
"Uncle Chen, you say, if my grandfather and they catch a bus into the city every day to sell vegetables, will this work?" After thinking about it for a while, Yu Mingyue pretended to be curious and asked about Chen Mingming.
"Selling vegetables in the city?" Chen Mingliang was a little surprised, and looked at Yu Zhiqing and his wife: "Xiaoyu, have you planned to go into the city to sell vegetables?" Is there a long-distance bus that is suitable to go into the city to sell vegetables? ”
When Yu Zhiqing was still a little stunned, Kong Xiaoyu woke up instantly: "Oh, Brother Chen, that's the case."
Kong Xiaoyu told all the times of the bus from her house to the city, and detailed the arrangements that Yu Mingyue said when she persuaded her earlier, but Kong Xiaoyu didn't say that these were all inadvertently mentioned by Yu Mingyue.
Chen Mingliang, who didn't know the truth, was a little impressed by Kong Xiaoyu at this time, and there was a hint of admiration in his eyes.
"Well, after Xiao Kong mentioned this, I think this method is feasible." Chen Mingliang then talked about his understanding of the situation in the urban area, and also counted several urban vegetable markets that Yu Mingyue had not seen in person.
He told Kong Xiaoyu that he thought of setting up a vegetable stall at the entrance of the family area of the Miangang Group, and he agreed with it, and counted the feasible points one by one.
"In general, when you go into the city after noon, and go to the living area of the north of the ferry bridge to set up stalls, it is better than which vegetable market to set up, after all, the vegetable market is now lively in the morning, and the stalls will be closed in the afternoon, and there are not many people who will go to buy vegetables. It's okay to be late, cross the bridge to take the bus back to the district, spend two or three yuan to stay in the hotel next to the long-distance station for one night, and rush back early the next morning to collect the food is very suitable. ”
Listening to Chen Mingliang as if making a report, analyzing each step clearly and making appropriate arrangements, Yu Mingyue chuckled happily, and the other five people became even more excited, not to mention Yu Zhiqing and Kong Xiaoyu, who thanked him repeatedly.
Facing the gratitude of the husband and wife, Chen Mingliang was happy at the same time, but also a little embarrassed: "Yo, it's all Xiaokong's own ideas, I'm only a consultant at most, but I can't be so grateful to you, seeing that you can live well, our three families are happy for you, and you are like this again, it's really too much to see you." ”
"But my grandfather won't agree." Yu Mingyue's words suddenly made everyone calm down all of a sudden.
After Kong Xiaoyu glanced at Yu Mingyue quickly, she didn't want to think about it, and looked directly at Chen Mingliang: "Brother Chen, hehe, my father-in-law is a little stubborn, we haven't read any books, and sometimes we don't speak very reliably, I have to trouble you to analyze and analyze this matter with him, he will definitely understand." ”
After two contacts, Chen Mingliang felt that Yu Tianzhou was a very open-minded person, and he had seen some rural old people in the market, and when he heard Kong Xiaoyu make this request, he was just stunned, and he readily agreed.
At six o'clock, when Yu Tianzhou poured vegetable water and went home, Chen Mingliang analyzed the earlier words with Yu Tianzhou.
As soon as he heard that even the director of the bureau felt that there was a "way to make money" to sell vegetables in the city, Yu Tianzhou only thought about the things analyzed by Chen Mingming, and happily agreed, preparing to collect some vegetables tomorrow and go to the big city to test the water.
This dinner was a little different, Yu Tianzhou actually let the food be put in the hall to eat.
Yu Mingyue knew that her family would only serve vegetables from the stove room to the hall to eat during the New Year's dinner, first, the stove room was more than 20 meters away from the hall, and it was rare to be troublesome on weekdays; The second is that there is an unwritten custom in the countryside here, when a close and distinguished guest comes to the house, the meal must be placed in the hall to be regarded as the highest courtesy, and the distinguished guests and ancestors must be taken care of each other during the meal.
Therefore, when a dozen or dozens of tables are set up for a meal, the highest-ranking guests in the family sit at one or two tables in the hall to eat.
Seeing the four distinguished guests at home so "courteous", Yu Mingyue felt a little funny in her heart. If the four guests knew that this was to let them be recognized by the ancestors of the Yu family, they would be so frightened that they would not be able to eat this meal.
A pot of three chicken soup (dried chicken fir + rooster + chicken), two bowls of spicy stir-fried chicken offal, a small pot of cabbage boiled chicken blood soup, two bowls of tomato scrambled eggs, two bowls of cold autumn cucumbers.
Dinner was hearty, but it was hearty.
Yu Tianzhou took three pairs of chopsticks, filled a little each of the two kinds of meat dishes and tomatoes and eggs, and filled a small wine glass with sorghum liquor, and carefully placed it on the long altar of the gods, and put three pillars of incense on the incense altars on the god table, and then beckoned everyone to sit down and eat.
The customs of the countryside, the four guests all know a little, but this is not a festival Yu Tianzhou sacrificed to the ancestors, the four of them were a little puzzled, but they didn't ask much, they directly greeted and sat at the table.
It's just that Chen Mingliang looked at Yu Mingyue, who was obviously smiling, from time to time, and became a little curious for a while, and made up his mind to ask a colleague in the countryside to inquire about this custom in the countryside when he went to work next Monday.
There is wine and meat, whether it is a daughter-in-law and two women in the countryside, or three old ladies in the city, they can drink a few sips, for a time the banquet is laughter, so lively, five old people over fifty years after drinking two glasses, but also affectionately talked about the old days of each family in the early years, although sometimes it is sad, but also because of the kind of sympathy for each other, more deepened the feelings between several old people.
It was dark for a while before the banquet dispersed, Chen Mingliang had a good amount of wine, and he deliberately didn't dare to drink more, and he didn't sit more after the banquet, so he decided to rush back to the city as soon as possible, so as to save the family of Wang and Mrs. Liu from worrying.
This time, Kong Mingying was not ordinary and generous, not only did she collect a bag of about 50 catties of rice for each of the three families, but also gave each of the three families 10 eggs, 10 catties of pine nuts, 10 catties of fried cone chestnuts, several bundles of various vegetables and a small snakeskin bag of green peppers, cucumbers, cowpeas, tomatoes, and even the big red chicken, which was rejected by the three families last time, was also caught by her from the chicken pen at this time.
Yu Mingyue was stammering, and there was a faint heartache in her heart, and she wanted to speak several times. Did her grandma have cramps today? Definitely cramping!
There was another push and let, Xu is feelings really warmed up, and the three big red roosters were still rejected, but the other gifts The four guests did not push more, and accepted them gratefully, and after loading the car, they reluctantly said goodbye and left.
When she heard the adults say that there would be more people coming next time, Yu Mingyue looked at the little jeep that was leaving with exhaust fumes, and couldn't come back to her senses for a long time.
Still coming? More people coming? Don't come, my family is so poor, I really can't afford to hurt.
"Satsuki, Satsuki, Satsuki!" Kong Mingying shouted for a long time and couldn't see Yu Mingyue respond, so he stepped forward and pulled Yu Mingyue up in a few steps without crying or laughing: "Alas~ What are you doing in a daze, go home, grandma will try on new clothes for you." ”
"New clothes? I don't have any new clothes. Yu Mingyue still didn't come back to her senses.
The bitter color on Kong Mingying's face flashed, and he laughed very happily: "Hehe, I didn't have it before, but I have it today, and there are three sets, three sets of clothes and pants, even three pairs of shoes, or small leather shoes with butterfly flowers, rabbit flowers, and bear flowers, not only you, but even us"
Seeing her grandmother's eyebrows fluttering, Yu Mingyue finally understood that her grandmother did not have cramps, but she really received too many gifts from three distinguished guests today, and her grandmother was just "returning the gift".
It's just that this gift, I'm afraid it's a little too disproportionate~
Thinking of the three big cocks that were obviously suddenly caught out of the chicken pen, Yu Mingyue blushed a little, not only for her grandmother, but also for herself, after all, she just now
Yu Mingyue, who was blushing, blushed even more when she saw the gifts that her grandmother had put forward and displayed one by one in the hall.
It turned out that this time, the three guests each prepared a set of clothes and a pair of shoes for her family of five. As a result, each of her family got three sets of clothes and three pairs of shoes.
Yu Mingyue's clothes are all the most popular children's clothes at the moment, with three pairs of red, green and black leather shoes each with three animal patterns, and a set of clothes for spring, summer and winter.
The other four adults also got three sets of clothes for spring, summer and winter, the women's spring clothes are the popular Lenin clothes, and the men's ones are the black tunics that cadres like to wear; Men's and women's summer clothes are the most popular short-sleeved shirts, all of which are white; The women's winter coat is the most expensive tweed coat today, one sky blue, one black, and the men's jacket is a thick double jacket.
Only one of the four adults' shoes is leather shoes, and the other two pairs are the most suitable rubber soled shoes for working in the field and very warm labor protection shoes.
After Yu Mingyue took a closer look at them one by one, she understood in her heart that the three guests really took care of these gifts.
After all, this area belongs to the dry and hot valley and mountainous mixed area, when it does not rain, the spring and autumn seasons are not obvious, even in winter there is rarely snow, a year from March to October of the new calendar, when it does not rain, it is suitable to wear summer clothes during the day, but the rainfall time is long, even if it is summer, it will suddenly be as cold as late autumn, the temperature difference between morning and evening in spring, autumn and winter is greater, and there can be 278 degrees at noon in winter during the day, but it often drops to 10 degrees or below at night.
Women love beauty, Kong Mingying and Kong Xiaoyu's daughter-in-law grabbed Yu Mingyue and tried this set and that set, until they tried on all three clothes a few times and found the most suitable matching style, and then they began to go back to the house to try on their new clothes.
Not long after Yu Mingyue was arrested by her mother to be a staff officer, her mother shouted her name next to her again, and kept shuttling between the two rooms, Yu Mingyue was amused, but also felt a little emotion in her heart, and she had an idea, and directly dragged her grandfather and father back to their respective houses, and Yu Mingyue finally had a moment of leisure.
Sitting quietly in the hall and thinking about it for a while, and calming down some tangled feelings, Yu Mingyue suddenly realized that this life is too monotonous now.
At this time, there was already a TV, and I didn't feel that I was busy making money during the day, but when I was free, I really felt that there was no TV or radio, which was really inconvenient, and some could not keep up with the mainstream of this era, after all, it was very beneficial to watch TV news or listen to the national policy on the radio.
With this thought, Yu Mingyue didn't bring it up immediately, after all, her family now has a lot of money to use, but she doesn't dare to spend it indiscriminately.
Unconsciously, Yu Mingyue crawled to sleep on the dining table, so that Kong Xiaoyu, who came out of the house after trying on clothes, couldn't cry or laugh, but she was also a little distressed, and she didn't wash Yu Mingyue's face and feet, and directly carried Yu Mingyue back to the small wooden frame bed in the wing. Above.
Early the next morning, Yu Mingyue woke up just after dawn, but when she went out, only her grandmother Kong Mingying was cooking breakfast at home.
I heard that her grandfather had gone to the villager's field with her father to collect vegetables, and after inquiring clearly, she chased after her excitedly.
The family was busy for a while, and finally after ten o'clock in the morning, they collected and washed more than 300 catties of various vegetables into two large baskets and two ** bags, and waited on the side of the road in front of the gate to catch a long-distance bus. R1152
