In the next few days, my life was still busy.

At noon, I pushed the cart to deliver potatoes to the canteen, and when I had time, I sat on the side to read.

Now that the price of potatoes has skyrocketed, I have started to take out potatoes and sell them at vegetable stalls, in addition to those given to the canteen.

The big potatoes sell for two yuan a catty, and the small ones that are not very good sell for five yuan and three catties. Although the price is quite expensive, it is not worrying about selling, and now there are very few potatoes sold in the whole vegetable station, and my potatoes are the only ones on the whole street.

At the busiest time, I can buy two large bags in a day, and the money from selling vegetables flows into it like flowing water. For the first time, I had a few hundred-dollar bills in my hand.

I was so excited that I was in my hands, smelling the scent of the banknotes, and I was very excited.

My sister-in-law was also very happy for me: "I really have never seen so much money in my life!" ”

"It's nothing, I'm going to keep a little pocket money for the goods as running water, and I will deposit a large amount in the bank, and now the interest rate is high." From the nineties to the beginning of the twenty-first century, the state paid residents extremely high interest rates in order to absorb deposits, but I didn't have a penny at that time, so I could only covet it.

And the interest rate on treasury bills at that time was very high, but they didn't recognize this thing, and no one dared to buy it, so I was going to buy a part of the treasury bills, and the rest of the money was going to be used to buy a house.

I smiled and grabbed her: "In front of you and my eldest brother, I am not afraid." It's just a little bit, don't let their mothers know about this, and don't reveal the tone of a word. ”

The sister-in-law nodded seriously: "I understand." I promise not to say. ”

The second brother's house is a bottomless pit, and my mother will never take care of it. If they knew that I had some money, they would probably come and rob it directly. There will still be nothing left.

My sister-in-law has also suffered a big loss, so naturally I won't say it.

Liang Yan and the others were very envious, and when they closed the stall, they came over and praised: "Qiao'er, it's really yours!" How can you be so far-sighted, you can actually eat so many potatoes in advance, and make a lot of money! We're so envious! ”

I whispered, "You two take two bags of potatoes from me tonight and sell them, and I'll give you five cents a pound, and with potatoes, you can make a lot of money by lowering the price of fruits." Just don't tell anyone. ”

Both of them were ecstatic and kept praising me for being righteous.

In order to thank me, Liang Yan brought me more than 20 sauerkraut the next day, and my aunt gave my grandson's small bed when he was a child, a small mattress for bedding, children's clothes, shoes, and a lot of things.

The sister-in-law was very moved: "Thank you so much!" ”

"Children's clothes, both men and women can wear them, they are all cotton thread, and the quality is good. I'll go back and find out what other torn clothes I have for you to make for your baby's diapers. ”

We are quite harmonious here, but the stall opposite is not very good, and I saw it in a few days, and the shopkeeper over there wrote a rental agreement outside, and Yuan Fang actually quit.

A well-informed person told us that Du Cheng was drunk and absent from work, broke his leg again, was scolded by the factory leader, and was almost fired. Took a year's long vacation.

The sister-in-law frowned and said, "How high is the cost of living in the city, if you don't have a job, I'm afraid you can't stand it, right?" ”

"Not really! His wife Yuan Fang also divorced him, and Du Cheng was finished. ”

Yuan Fang was originally greedy for Du to grow up handsome, and his family background was also good, who knew that not only did he not get benefits, but he would also become a burden to himself, so he insisted on divorcing him.

Sun E didn't agree, and after a few days of quarreling, Yuan Fang actually took it upon herself to rent out the house at a cheap price, and she didn't have the face to stay here, so she simply went south with a few friends to work.

Sun E and Du Cheng had no place to live, so they were dumbfounded and went to Yuan Fang's mother's house to make trouble, but the other party was overwhelmed and was beaten out. Now the two of them can only go back to the village to recuperate.

I didn't speak, I said in my heart, when Du Cheng and Yuan Fang got married, there was a big feast, and Sun E blew the cows to the sky, who knew that there would be such a result. I must have been laughed at now.

On the way home, my sister-in-law asked me if I was happy: "He made you so miserable at the beginning, but now you can finally see how he feels like being retaliated against by God." ”

I smiled and said, "I don't care, even if he becomes a millionaire, it doesn't matter to me." It's best to forget about it early. ”

Speaking of what to do with those sauerkraut, I said: "Let's put it first, when the solar calendar year comes, there must be many people who want to buy dumplings, let's wrap some dumplings with sauerkraut meat and sell them outside, and we must make a lot of money." ”

My sister-in-law grabbed me and said, "Qiao'er, let me look at your eyes, are they full of money!" ”

I grinned and grabbed her, "I also have to leave some money for my little nephew." In the future, if he is admitted to university, I will provide for him. ”

The sister-in-law smiled shyly, and she held her stomach with her hand: "I don't know if it's a man or a woman." Mom kept nagging, saying that she looked like a girl. ”

We didn't talk for a long time, and although we don't favor sons over girls, if it's a girl, I guess my mother will be even worse for her.

On Friday night, the eldest brother hurried back.

As soon as he entered the door, he pulled his sister-in-law to look up and down, and was very happy: "Okay! Yes, on Qiao'er's side, she has gained a lot of weight, and her face is white. ”

I smiled and said, "Don't look at it, be careful not to pull it out when you look at it." ”

"Let's eat." The sister-in-law was also a little embarrassed: "Qiao'er bought you a new bedding and pillow, so you don't have to sleep so hard." ”

The eldest brother nodded, washed his hands and sat down to eat. We didn't have anything to eat when we just came back, so we cooked a little somen noodles, added a few poached eggs, and filled a big bowl for my eldest brother.

I told my eldest brother that I didn't want to go on a blind date with that person anymore.

The eldest brother was stunned, and the sister-in-law said that I was going to concentrate on preparing for the exam: "If this is the object, if you don't talk about the delay, it is possible that the in-laws are not happy, and if you can't keep it, you have to fight, so how distracting." ”

"That's fine. I'm just sorry, this guy is pretty good. ”

I smiled and gave my eldest brother a chopstick dish: "When I go to school and have a good job, do you want to find anything?" I became a sycamore tree myself, and naturally a phoenix flew up. "I don't want to say it, in fact, I still have Gao Tiansheng in mind.

"Yes!" The eldest brother is not insisting, anyway, no matter what decision I make, he will fully support it.

I asked my eldest brother when the holiday would be, and the eldest brother said, "Tomorrow the machine will be overhauled, and for two days in a row, I want to go to the market to find a job as a casual worker and earn thirty or fifty yuan." ”

"Forget it! It's such a cold day, just rest at home. "My sister-in-law is very distressed.

"It's okay! Otherwise, I would sit and eat at home, and my heart would be on fire. ”

I smiled and said, "Big brother, if you really want to go out, why don't you help me pick up coal." ”

"I see that the coal in the coal bunker is getting less and less, and I am in a hurry, I don't know where to pick it up?" The eldest brother hurriedly asked.

I told Aunt Fang what she said, and my eldest brother agreed: "Okay!" It's okay to get some coal gangue to burn, and when the time comes, I'll be the main force, and you can help me. ”

My sister-in-law was also going, but we resolutely stopped her. I just asked her to take care of the stall for me at home.

"Qiao'er, you're working so hard, I'm really worried that you're tired. If this girl is not well maintained, she will get sick when she is old. The sister-in-law had a worried look on her face.

I grabbed her and smiled, "I'm still young, it's okay!" First bitter and then sweet, I have paid for my hard work, and it will naturally be rewarded. Don't worry about me. ”

After eating, the eldest brother and sister-in-law went to the back room, and kept muttering and whispering, and laughter came from time to time.

I lay on the kang and thought to myself, this is what a loving couple looks like. I don't know what Gao Tiansheng is doing at this time? Ready to go abroad?

He helped me prepare the textbooks, should I give him something in return?

But he doesn't lack anything, and others will only think that I am deliberately looking for an excuse to meet him......

Thinking about it, I fell asleep.
