The three forts bought fried meat, roast chicken, fried fish, and bought steaming steamed buns to carry home, in addition, I also bought a few bottles of beer, and also carried them in my hands.

The Three Batteries opened two bottles of beer and handed one bottle to Chubby and her mother. And he himself, drinking tea to accompany him. Xiaopang's mother was a little reluctant, picked up a bottle of beer, handed it to the three forts, and said, "You also drink a bottle to rest, after a day's work, you are tired enough." No matter how much you save, you don't care about this beer. ”

The third fort took the wine bottle in his hand, did not open it, but smiled, put it on the ground again, picked up the tea and said: "I drink this very well, I have drunk the wine that should be drunk in the past few years." Now focus on making money. In the past, I spent a lot of money and always thought that what I had at home was money, but now that I look back, it was really naïve and ridiculous! At that time, I was so stupid, taking money around pretending to be an uncle, the uncle was easy to pretend, but the grandson was difficult to be. If I had known that money was so hard to earn, not to mention that they called me boss at the time, if I had left it now, they would have called me my father, and I wouldn't have given them money. Now regret it, it's too late. I also hate myself, I hate myself for being unproductive at that time, and now when I think of the money I threw out, I have a dead heart, and my intestines are full of regret! ”

"Knowing that mistakes can be corrected, and good is great. The prodigal son did not change his money. It's not too late to work hard now, we don't expect anyone's money, rely on self-reliance, and fight an economic turnaround in three years! "Chubby is so encouraging the three forts.

The Third Fort said worriedly: "In a few days, the work of these families will be done." Where to move the construction site? Haven't you asked Xiaoyan? ”

Xiaopang shook his head: "She has no way to find herself, and if she wants to find a job, she has to rely on her father to find it." Tomorrow, I will ask Xiaoyan again and ask her to urge her father to get the project done as soon as possible, so as not to delay the work of the workers. I did the math. We are two hundred yuan a day on average, and fifteen people are three thousand yuan a day. I can't afford to delay this work."

Xiaopang sighed: "It's not expensive to be a family, oil and salt are expensive, and now I know that I am a boss, looking at the scenery on the surface, who knows that there is so much bitterness behind it?" It's not easy to be a worker, and it's also hard to be a boss. ”

The third battery asked Chubby: "What if we can't find a job?" ”

Xiaopang let out a long sigh, and his wife said coldly: "If you really can't do it, you will take a holiday, and let everyone fight separately." Let's go to the labor market. When we have the project, let's gather everyone together again and keep warm again. ”

Although the three forts agreed that this was not a way to do it, she was still worried that the mechanics would go back, and once they rejoined the other construction teams, they would not be able to come back for a while. "Alas". The Three Fort shook his head and sighed softly. Seeing that Xiaopang's mother had finished drinking the wine, she hurriedly handed the steamed bun to her, and pushed the fried fish and fried meat in front of her.

Chubby's mother made these moves to the Three Forts. didn't say anything about it, but she was still quite satisfied with this prospective son-in-law. After dinner, the Three Fort went back to his room and went to sleep, and Chubby and her mother muttered in the room for most of the night. The two of them spoke in a very low voice, mixed with more than half of the local colloquialisms, and outsiders couldn't hear what they said clearly.

The sun has risen. Chubby's mother is going to the farmer's market to buy vegetables and entertain the chefs for lunch at home. Before she could lift her feet, a man came in from outside. She asked, "Who are you, what are you doing here?" ”

"I'm here to help. Isn't there someone eating at noon these days? Asked me to come over for a shift, Xiaoyan's mother can't come today because she has something to do, so let me come to the top shift. ”

The person who came was Li Er, but Chubby's mother didn't know him, and he was regarded as an ordinary villager in the village, and Li Er said that he would come to replace him temporarily, so Chubby's mother didn't think deeply. She arranged for Li Er to clean up, do this and that, and when chatting, she learned that Li Er didn't have a wife at the moment, so she called him an old bachelor by the way. also educated him: "Old bachelor, look at your beard, the age is not small, you have to pay attention to the tune, for example, when you see a woman, you have to be honest, don't squint, those sensitive parts of the woman's body, can't look straight and don't look enough, just peek a few times." You can't be old and not serious, seize the opportunity in the future, find an old lady, and live a good life. You can't think badly about those young girls. ”

After teaching Li Er, Chubby's mother asked Li Er again: "You came to work as a substitute, didn't you say how much you were paid a day?" ”

Li Er saw Chubby's mother's serious posture, and felt that it was very interesting and fun, so he wanted to tease her to have some fun, and said casually: "One hundred a day, one meal at noon." ”

"My mother, the salary is not low, find a cleaner and beat the side drum, the salary is so high, these two children will not settle accounts. It's okay to have a meal at noon, but you can't drink beer. ”

Li Er asked, "Why?" ”

"Why? Still? You really don't understand, or pretend to be confused. The beer was prepared for the craftsmen, so that they could drink it and work energetically in the afternoon. You say that you're an old bachelor who comes to help on a shift, how can you be qualified to drink that bottle of beer? It's really gluttonous, and when those masters have half a bottle left or a bottle bottom, it's all yours, but there is one thing, the craftsmen can't finish eating, you are not allowed to serve on the table, do you understand? ”

Li Er pretended to be stupid and said, "If you don't drink beer, I won't work in the afternoon, and you won't be able to control me anyway." ”

"What? I can't control you? Come over to me, stand still! Listen to me tell you: I'm a chubby mother, and the construction team was opened by my future son-in-law, the Third Fort and Xiao Yan'er, and I just talked about the vice president outside, do you know? ”

Li Er muttered and said, "According to what you say, I am still the head of our family." ”

"That's right, you are indeed the head of your family, not bad at all, the old bachelor is a person, and he is also a family cadre and a soldier." Chubby didn't finish his sentence and laughed to himself first.

Li Er asked her, "Eldest sister, how old are you this year?" ”

"What? The set almost wants to get me cheap, doesn't it? Looking at you like this, you probably have been a bachelor for many years, and you want to be crazy about women, right? Stay away from me, I'm the vice president! Let's go, carry the cabbage and follow me, and go to the market to buy groceries. ”

Li Er took the cabbage on his shoulder, and bargained: "If you ask me to drink a bottle of beer at noon, I will go to the dish, or if you ask me to drink a bottle of beer, I will follow empty-handed." There are so many dishes, a lot of them are cooked and cooked, and I don't do them. Now you give me fifty yuan in wages, and I will leave immediately, and I will stop working as a substitute. ”

"Okay, take advantage of the fire to rob, don't go up the mountain and don't drop the chain, belong to the donkey, want to pick up the hooves, don't you?" Chubby's mother thought: I bought a lot of vegetables, and I really didn't move much by myself. In addition, I can't cook this meal at noon, and I can't really do it without a helper. She had no choice but to grit her teeth and agree to Li Er's conditions. The two closed the door and walked towards the farmer's market. On the way, Xiaopang's mother also instructed Li Er: "Behind me, there are many women on the set, you have to be honest, if you are swaggering and cause trouble, I will deduct your wages." ”

Li Ergao happily replied, "Okay, wow, you'll be fine." ”

As soon as he entered the farmers' market, Li Er saw that Lao Cuihua was standing next to the truck, directing a few porters to unload the truck, and while keeping accounts, he crossed over to the chubby mother and reached out to touch Lao Cuihua's backbone buttocks. Lao Cuihua didn't know what to do, turned around and said, "What are you doing?" In broad daylight! ”

Li Er gritted his teeth and smiled: "What are you afraid of?" There's a worm lying on your back, and I'm afraid it's biting your ass. ”

Xiaopang's mother really saw this old bachelor touching the buttocks of the beautiful woman, she was frightened, and hurriedly stepped forward to pull Li Er back, and reprimanded: "Stop, be honest." ”

She turned around and said with a smiling face: "This female boss, it's all because we don't understand the rules, and he is also kind, there is indeed a vegetable worm crawling on your body." In a hurry, he forgot the rules of not kissing men and women, so you should be cold to him. Don't be like this country turtle. ”

Lao Cuihua felt incomprehensible about Chubby's mother's words, and was just about to ask to understand, but it happened that the driver came to settle the freight, and she couldn't care for a while to interrogate who this strange woman was. Chubby's mother seized the opportunity, reached out and pulled Li Er, and said angrily: "While she is too busy, let's go." You're still standing here, waiting for her to finish her busy work and free up her hand to slap you? ”

Li Er followed Chubby's mother to the farmers' market. The more people go inside, the more people there are, and Xiaopang's mother is afraid that Li Er will take advantage of the crowd and reach out to touch the woman again, causing big trouble and it will be difficult to clean up. So she walked to the tofu cart of the three fat men, bought three catties of tofu, and then bought two catties of shallots, asked Li Er to take these things, squatted under the shade of the tree on the edge of the market and waited, she was ready to squeeze in and cut the meat by herself, buy cauliflower, celery, etc.

Li Er pointed to the market office not far in front of him and said, "I'll wait for you there, and drink some water by the way." ”

Chubby agreed, and hurried inside. When she came out after buying the meat and vegetables, Li Er was gone, and she searched everywhere and found him sitting in the shade of a tree on the other side, playing military chess with a young man with glasses, and the two were arguing for a sapper. Let the tofu and shallots he was holding were all exposed to the sun, and on the concrete floor at his feet, and then look at the tofu, crooked to the side, a lot of water flowed out from the mouth and neck of the plastic bag that was tied, and two flies were lying on the puddle of water to drink because of the heat, and sometimes they climbed onto the plastic bag containing the tofu, stretched out their wings and spread their wings. Look at the two catties of shallots, the sun is drying on the top, the cement floor is hot, and the half-dried ones that have been dried have not been wetted for a long time, which is not decent!

Xiaopang's mother came over, kicked Li Er's ass lightly with her foot, and said angrily: "Let's go, forget to work when you play, be careful to deduct your wages." ”

Li Er said: "It's really not easy to take a shift, you continue to play chess, I'll go get down to business first." He got up and took the cabbage handed over by the little fat mother, walked out, put the vegetable on an unlocked tricycle at the chaotic entrance, pushed it out and walked a few steps, and saw that no one shouted to stop it, so he rode on the bike, and ran away on the horse. Chubby's mother was far behind. She muttered in her heart: "This old bachelor is not only lustful, he has been making trouble for a long time, he is still a car thief, looking at his sharp figure, he is still a veteran!" Where did she know that the owner of the car was sitting on the side of the car to enjoy the coolness, and Li Er borrowed a tricycle for use, so they were not afraid of losing it.
