Fang Gang was eating meat skewers, and suddenly looked at me and said, "Cheng Xue is not here!" ”

"Yes, she went back to her hometown for the New Year." I put a couple of beers on their table.

Fang Gang looked disappointed, smiled and lowered his head to eat the skewers.

Lin Jia and I can naturally see his thoughts, Cheng Xue is naturally a good thing that someone likes him, although Fang Gang looks reckless, but he is also a good person, and he works hard, but she has always divorced once, and I don't know if Cheng Xue told him if she did.

We didn't dare to tell him abruptly. I can only dress stiffly, I don't know.

I asked Xiao Rui when he would come back, and they all shook their heads: "I don't know, let's celebrate the New Year in general." Sister-in-law, do you miss him? ”

A burst of laughter came.

"You didn't say anything? Don't eat it! As I spoke, I was about to snatch the meat from their table, and all of them shouted in fright.

"Don't mind! Let's not talk about it! ”

I walked back with a smile, but when I looked up, I saw Lin Jia looking at me with a complicated expression.

"Jiajia, what's wrong with you?"

Lin Jia hurriedly said, "I'm fine, in fact, you and my eldest brother have been separated, and he is also sorry for you first, and I have no right to let you wait for him all the time, I just feel a pity." "She's gone on something else.

I sighed, I forgot about him.

The instant noodles we ate only had two flavors: chicken soup and seafood noodles, but the quality was very good. Jiajia and I put the instant noodles outside, shouting loudly, asking more at first, buying less, and waiting and seeing.

I simply got the pot that used to cook tea eggs and put the instant noodles in it to boil, and everyone smelled the fragrance.

I will introduce to everyone: "You can cook and eat, you can soak it for a few minutes, and you can also eat it dry, it is very fragrant!" If you have a lot of people in the family, just put a bag in it while you are cooking the noodles and eat them with the taste of this seasoning, and you don't have to cook! Five cents a bag, not expensive at all! ”

In this way, the sales gradually went up, and then more and more people bought it, so I asked my mother to help me buy it.

During this period, Yi Xiuyan and Zhao Jinku came to visit, and when they saw that our instant noodle business was so prosperous, they were tempted.

On this day, the stall was closed, and the two of them came to discuss with us and buy goods from us.

Yi Xiuyan said: "No matter what, we can be regarded as having a relationship, you shouldn't object to me asking for a few boxes, right?" ”

I smiled and said, "Welcome! I'll give you nine yuan for a box of instant noodles, a box of twenty-four bags, I'll give you four cents a bag for the purchase price, and you sell a pack for one cent. ”

"No way!" Yi Xiuyan said with a sharp voice: "Your purchase price must not be this!" You guys must be cheaper! I'm going to pay you what you wanted! ”

I smiled and said, "Then you buy thirty boxes, and I'll give you five cents cheaper for one box." ”

"You're kidding! What if you can't sell so many goods? Eight yuan a box, let's take two xiāng zǐ to sell first. Yi Xiuyan said that she was about to stand up and move xiāng zǐ, but was stopped by my mother.

"It's not going to work, it's not going to fit."

"You're a housewife, you know what! We're old acquaintances. Isn't this benefit still given? Yi Xiuyan went to push her mother, but I pulled her collar and threw her aside.

I said, "Are you trying to force you to buy and sell, we can't let you move things like this." ”

"Why! Just make some money, why are you so stingy! Her eyes kept rolling.

"Your frozen shrimp are bought for four yuan and three, right? I'm going to buy it from you for four and five. Do you promise? ”

Yi Xiuyan shouted: "Can that work?" Why are you looking for a bargain to find us on the head! ”

"So you know you're not happy!" Lin Jia said coldly: "Our purchase price is cheaper than yours, but we have to bear the freight, if we can't sell it, we will lose to death, you yourself are selling goods, will you know?" You want to make money, and you don't want to take risks. How can there be such a good thing! ”

I said, "We are the dài lǐ merchants of this city, and of course my prices are cheaper than yours, so don't pick this reason." ”

Zhao Jinku hurriedly said: "We also want to do this dài lǐ business line, can't we?" ”

"Dài lǐ Shang is one city, one by one, otherwise how can we guarantee our highest interests? We're buying in large quantities. ”

"Just look at your old friendships;;"

I said coldly, "If you think about the past, we'll all have to kick you out." I just don't want to care. At such a price, do you like it or not? ”

Zhao Jinku thought about it and was ready to buy it.

But Yi Xiuyan beside him grabbed him and said: "You are stupid!" Their purchase price is a lot cheaper, so why let them make money from us? ”

"What then?"

"Let's go to the provincial capital and pī fā ourselves."

I smiled and said, "Okay, you have what it takes." Just go find them yourself. ”

We have already signed an agreement, if you can approve it and do dài lǐ business, we can sue the instant noodle factory and get ten times the compensation, which is so much trouble, I can't ask for it.

But Zhao Jinku disagreed: "How much does it cost to get a round-trip ticket?" Let's buy it, it's not easy to sell in ink. ”

He bought ten xiāng zǐ instant noodles, and Yi Xiuyan walked out while muttering.

Lin Jia spat at their backs: "If you want me, just drive them out, why give them a chance to make money!" ”

I laughed and said, "Didn't we make it too?" It doesn't matter who he is, money doesn't bite his hand. ”

"That's just as well."

I packed up the money, and then asked the Lin family, "What happened to your brother's crochet mat?" ”

"Well, my brother came to bring me some rice the day before yesterday, and he said that he bought it at the mall in the end, and he thanked you for not arguing with Zhuo Ying."

"There's nothing to thank you for. She's pregnant, and if something happens, I'll be unlucky. I'm not for him either. "I'm done talking, and I'm ready for tomorrow.

Lin Jia looked at me for a long time, and finally just sighed.

The shop is getting busier and busier, and sometimes it takes eleven o'clock to settle the bill. It was cold and the road was slippery, so Lin Jia and I simply made a small bed in the store and slept here. It's hard work, but I'm happy to see that there's more money.

On the twenty-eighth day of the lunar month, I was selling fried melon seeds outside, and I saw Jiang Hua hurriedly passing by the stall in front of me.

She wore a red cotton jacket, a blue scarf, and a pair of large worn cotton shoes on her feet. She is much older than before, her face is haggard, her hair is tied up haphazardly, and she doesn't pay attention to her appearance at all.

Seeing her like this, I thought of me in my previous life, I was also the same vicissitudes of life and haggard, if I was a woman who was loved by my husband, I would not be like this anyway.

I hurriedly called her name: "Ginger Flower!" ”

Jiang Hua hurriedly walked over, her face was frozen purple, and in her hand was a big bag with some dried kelp and a few frozen fish. There are some other things, all of which are New Year's goods to be eaten during the New Year.

She smiled a little reluctantly: "It's you, Nizi, are you a little boss?" ”

"This shop is a collaboration between several of us." I smiled and said, "You've almost bought something, haven't you?" Come and talk to me! ”

Lin Jia helped watch outside, and Jiang Hua and I entered the house.

I gave her a little ginger jujube tea made by my mother: "Come, drink something to drive away the cold." On such a cold day, you have to take a carriage back, I think you are buying New Year's goods, and you can't finish it all at once, how tiring it is. Liao Qiang is also sick now, and he can't control you, so he has to take it easy. ”

Jiang Hua was really frozen, and kept stomping her feet, roasting her hands next to the stove, and drinking a large cup of tea before she recovered.

She said to me: "I won't tell you, I just got seriously ill, what kind of mood do I have for the New Year, if it weren't for the fact that I haven't eaten meat for a long time, and my mother-in-law said that I would have gone out because I was laughed at by the village for not buying things, otherwise I wouldn't have come." ”

I smiled and said, "Your family has received so much compensation, what is there to be reluctant to!" Don't be so stingy! Liao Qiang eats well, so that he can get better faster. You're going to be out of the stall then. ”

Jiang Hua just sneered when she heard this: "He? I wish Liao Qiang had died sooner now! I'd rather be a widow than live like this! ”

I was taken aback: "What's the matter, you guys are arguing?" ”

"Hehe, our family has a little money, so I was worried about that slut again." Jiang Hua didn't hide it from me and said it out loud.

I frowned and said, "Zheng Sisi?" ”

"Yes! This slut. I hate to strangle her, but the man in my own family is not angry, what can I do! Flies don't bite you seamlessly. ”

It turned out that after Zheng Sisi left from me last time, she looked for a few more jobs, but she said that she couldn't do it, either because she was too tired and too difficult to do, or because she felt that the head was not good for her, or too good, in short, no.

Although Zheng Shusheng is used to loving women, he is also a little annoyed, but Wang Juan feels that the New Year is over, so she simply waits for the New Year to come out to work. In addition, Sun Facai has been busy in the city, and he has no time to pay attention to her.

"This slut's life is also free, and he can often go to Liao Qiang, and that's the end of our family's life." Jiang Hua sneered.

I was a little surprised. Because the children and grandchildren of the previous generation are quite lazy to get rich, and they don't do much work, this time his wife is different, has she become diligent?

And Liao Qiang can already practice walking outside with a cane. When I was walking on the village road, I met Zheng Sisi, who was showing off his flowers.

He didn't want to see him at first. His face was wrapped in gauze, avoiding her.

But he couldn't stand Zheng Sisi always appearing in front of him, with affection, so he fell.

"The two of them were blocked by me on the edge of the woods behind, and they were still hugging each other at the time! Zheng Sisi didn't admit it even if he died. said that he was about to fall down accidentally, and he was holding him up. I didn't say anything at the time, I directly found out the marriage certificate to divorce him, or my mother-in-law knelt down for me and begged me, I didn't go, Liao Qiang was also afraid, but I knew that he still remembered that ** in his heart. ”
