Zhou Jianhua didn't go far on the car when he saw his cousin standing at the gate of the coal mine and looking at him. Zhou Jianhua guessed that his cousin was waiting for him, so he rode to his cousin's side and got out of the car, pushed the cart and walked out of the mine with his cousin.

Lin Yongliang's Linjia villager group is not far from the Tuanlin Coal Mine, and he and most of the other members who work in the mine walk to and from work.

And Zhou Jianhua lives relatively far, from the asphalt road through the gate of the Tuanlin Coal Mine all the way to the east, after passing the Tuanlin Commune Social Department has to go east for more than 10 kilometers, and the intersection of the 105 National Highway in the north-south direction is the Jiancheng County Seed Farm, which also has to take a ferry to cross the Wengong River.

Usually Zhou Jianhua said hello to his cousin after getting off work and rode directly into the car and left, but today there was a flatbed car slippage, which immediately triggered Zhou Jianhua's repair of the winch and the change of work, Zhou Jianhua guessed that his cousin must have something to talk to him, so he pushed the car and walked with his cousin.

Lin Yongliang didn't speak, as if he was still thinking about what had just happened, but from time to time he turned his head to look at Zhou Jianhua with a puzzled look.

Zhou Jianhua understood what his cousin was thinking, and seeing that his cousin had not made a sound, he spoke first to break the silence:

"Uncle, thank you for introducing me to the mine...... I didn't expect what I learned in school to come in handy today. ”

"You junior high school students can learn these skills in school?" Lin Yongliang couldn't believe that his eldest son was a junior high school graduate.

"Well, it's not exactly taught in schools, there are some courses in schools about this, but they don't teach that much...... There was a library in the school, so I went there to find books on this subject and read them, and then I learned a little more. Zhou Jianhua felt that it should be reasonable to make the story like this.

"Oh...... When I got to the machine repair class, I worked hard and had a good relationship with the masters...... It's a great opportunity. Lin Yongliang really didn't delve into it anymore, seemed to believe it, paused, and said with some regret: "If only Xiao Ming had the ability to do something like you." ”

Zhou Jianhua knew that the Xiao Ming that his cousin said was his eldest son Lin Dongming, 3 years older than himself, graduated from junior high school two years ago, and his grades were good when he was in junior high school, but for the sake of his family's livelihood, he did not go to high school again, but was arranged by his uncle to work as an apprentice in the machine repair factory of Tuanlin Commune. To say that this is not bad, working in a machine repair shop is like working in a coal mine, it is a "beauty difference" that members strive to go to, and they still earn more than ordinary members who work in the field.

As they spoke, the two quickly walked through the social department of Tuanlin Commune, and when they arrived at the place where they should break up, Lin Yongliang instructed: "It's not early, you should ride home quickly." ”

Zhou Jianhua glanced up at the gravel road that turned into the Lin family villager group, and found that the distribution store of the supply and marketing cooperative, which was more than ten meters in front, was still open, and there were faint lights inside, so he said to his cousin, "Wait a minute", handed over the bicycle to his cousin to support, and ran into the store quickly.

In those years, there were no individual stores in Jiancheng County, and those who bought daily necessities and non-staple food in the city could only go to state-run stores, and in the rural areas, there were only outlets of supply and marketing cooperatives. The distribution store of the supply and marketing cooperative, which Zhou Jianhua ran into, is the only agricultural materials and daily necessities store in the area of Tonglin Commune.

When Zhou Jianhua ran into the store, a girl with long braids wearing a blue suspender work apron was coming out of the old-fashioned closed counter and preparing to get off work. It's time to get off work! Shop and come back tomorrow! The words were very polite, but the voice was very pleasant.

Zhou Jianhua knew that all kinds of materials were in short supply in this era, and most of the products were purchased and sold by the state, and many daily necessities had to be purchased with tickets, so the commercial units were very good, so he smiled with a smile: "I'm very fast, buy it and leave immediately." ”

The girl gave him a blank look: "It's already time for us to get off work!" If it weren't for the inventory, it would have been gone a long time ago......"

"Beauty, help, I'm in a hurry! Soon good, soon good! Zhou Jianhua didn't care about that much, walked a few steps to the counter, stared at the rows of sparse shelves, and was thinking about what to buy.

"You're ......!" The braided girl's face turned red, and she glared at Zhou Jianhua angrily and was speechless. She was angry not because Zhou Jianhua forced her in, but because Zhou Jianhua called her a "beauty".

People in this era are very conservative, although girls are beautiful by nature, and they also like others to say that they are beautiful, but if it is a strange man staring at a girl a few more times, then there is a suspicion of flirting @ playing, so boldly calling people "beauty" directly, it is simply playing a rogue @ hooligan.

Zhou Jianhua didn't notice his mistake in a hurry, calling girls and beauties was originally a habit in his previous life. At this time, he was quickly scanning the wooden sign hanging on the wall with chalk writing the price of the product, and silently recited in his heart: "Lichun wine 0.9 yuan, Xifeng wine 3.4 yuan, economic tobacco 0.07 yuan, Evergrande tobacco 0.33 yuan, Shanghai Daqianmen 0.42 yuan, China tobacco 1.14 yuan, pork 0.72 yuan, hairtail fish 0.38 yuan, orange 0.18 yuan, fruit candy 7 yuan a dime, orange candy 3 cents a ......"

"Holy! Money in this era is really money! It's worth a lot of money! Zhou Jianhua couldn't help but sigh with emotion, and quickly said loudly: "Bring me 4 catties of pork, two packs of big front door, two bottles of Lichun wine, ......"

The pigtailed girl stood at the door of the store without moving her feet, and replied, "Where is there pork at this late hour?" "In this era, pork is so in short supply that even if you have a meat ticket, you can't necessarily buy meat.

"Oh...... Then help me change to 4 catties of hairtail! Zhou Jianhua thought about it and changed his words, and then his eyes swept on the price board again, and he added while watching: "I don't want to drink, let's have another Evergrande cigarette, two cents of fruit candy, and three cents of orange candy...... No way? There is still chocolate sold in this kind of place?! 6 cents a piece...... 5 more chocolates! Well, that's all! ”

The girl with long braids looked at Zhou Jianhua angrily, and was thinking about whether to deal with this rude young man, but when she heard him say that she would buy so many things in one breath, she became curious.

As soon as she saw this young man with a black face covered in dirty soot, she guessed that he must be a member of the Tuanlin Coal Mine. These members usually save money, and very few people come to the store to buy non-staple food, even if they are preparing New Year's goods or wedding celebrations, they will not buy such expensive cigarettes and sweets, and the young man in front of him seems to be shopping very casually, which is not the consumption habits of local members at all.

As soon as her curiosity came up, she was not in a hurry to leave, and then walked back, opened the cabinet door and walked into the closed counter.

Only then did Zhou Jianhua take a closer look at the girl with long braids. The girl in front of her is about seventeen or eighteen years old, with clear eyebrows and beautiful eyes, a pretty face, white and tender skin as smooth and delicate as clotted fat, crystal clear, and the blue strap-on work apron tightly wrapped around the waist is tightly wrapped around the cotton clothes, so that the concave and convex S-shaped figure is exposed, and the two long braids are playfully hung down on the shoulders one after the other, swinging from side to side with the figure, full of dynamics. At a glance, it is quiet and lively, with the playfulness of a girl and the coquettishness of the first maturity.

Looking at the beautiful little beauty across the counter, Zhou Jianhua felt his heart flutter, and he couldn't help but secretly exclaim: Soul, return!

“…… If you change all the meat to hairtail...... Is it appropriate to have a banquet? Looking at the big boy in front of her, who was not short but had a childish face, the girl with long braids couldn't help but hesitate to remind. She knows that it is not easy for the members of the club to make some money, and the money that an ordinary member can earn in a month is only a dozen yuan.

"It's not a wine...... It's okay, you can weigh it for me! Please divide this fish into two portions for me, two catties each. Zhou Jianhua replied in an indifferent tone, still admiring the beauty opposite and her long black and shiny hair.

The long-haired girl didn't say anything, but after weighing the hairtail, she quickly tied it into two parts with a paper rope, and brought the cigarettes and candy one by one and put them on the counter, wrapped them in straw paper, and tied them up.

Zhou Jianhua's eyes slid down from behind the ears with the girl's long braids, and the braids hung down through the girl's pink neck and rested diagonally on the bulging chest, and were ironed into a perfect arc at the tip of the peak, constantly stretching and rippling with the movement of the girl's body and the ups and downs of her breathing......

The girl suddenly felt that the young man opposite had been staring at her, and couldn't help frowning, and said in her heart, Are you here to buy something or come to see me, there are such a sexy boy in the commune! Thinking of it again, he called her a "beauty" before, and scolded secretly in his heart, little rab @hooligan! How dare you take advantage of me!

Thinking like this, the girl couldn't help but feel cramped, her face was red, she was embarrassed to look up at the boy opposite, she just lowered her head and dialed the abacus in a panic, she actually miscalculated several times in a row, and she couldn't help but get annoyed, so she simply stopped, raised her head suddenly, and stared at Zhou Jianhua in protest half shyly and half angrily, and was silent for a long time.

"Settled? How much? Zhou Jianhua saw that the girl suddenly stopped and stared at him without blinking, so he asked, but his eyes were reluctant to leave the girl's face, and a blush clearly floated on the fair and pretty face, like a peach blossom.

Zhou Jianhua said while admiring the beauty in his heart, he couldn't imagine that in such a difficult and ordinary living environment, such a beautiful and moving girl could be born, even in the big city he had been to in his previous life, this kind of naturally beautiful girl was rare.

Zhou Jianhua only cares about his own eyes and spirits, but he forgets that in this era, there is still a "hooliganism" in the criminal law.

The girl didn't answer his words, a pair of clear eyes still stared at Zhou Jianhua fixedly, under the dim incandescent light, the girl's pink and beautiful face revealed a trace of hazy coldness, and the beauty made people palpitate.
