428: A life of poverty
The mother said: "Look at the aunt's family in China Village, several sisters, in order to provide for the younger sister to study, the eldest doesn't even talk about her boyfriend, so she is not in a hurry, she will give her sister out first." Look at you again?
You can rest assured, Lao Tzu was born, Lao Tzu can also afford to raise, don't worry about you. ”
Mom counted Jiaojiao who burned the fire while chopping vegetables, and Jiaojiao wiped her tears and didn't cry.
Who don't you raise if you give birth to it? Why do you want me to raise it? Do I want to do that? Do I want to lose my money? The last thing I want to go home to see your face is!
Jiaojiao got up and called Yuko to leave the house, she never wanted to come back.
Jiaojiao still has some traditional thoughts in her bones, she has already slept with Yongzi, she can't change another man, right? She felt awkward just thinking about it.
Jiaojiao didn't look down on Yongzi's family, and she didn't want to get married, so she went to Chengdu with Yongzi the next year, rented a room in Chengdu's Kuanzhai Alley, and only had 20 yuan left on her body after buying some daily necessities, what should I do? Jiaojiao went to buy a dollar of douban, and walked a long way every day to buy a dollar of folded ear roots, and the two of them could eat three meals.
Yongzi bought a "rake ear" (unlicensed rickshaw) to pedal the tricycle every day, and at first he was unfamiliar with the road and had no business.
Jiaojiao doesn't have any work experience, and no one even wants to go to the tea shop to be a waiter.
Jiaojiao is not discouraged, she can always find a job, at least white rice every day, and bean paste bibimbap to eat, no need to starve, no need to sleep on the streets.
Jiaojiao slept for half a day, looked for a job for half a day, and after a week, Yongzi would always buy Jiaojiao some barbecue for Jiaojiao when she came back every night.
Although he doesn't make much money, he puts Jiaojiao in the first place, isn't that what he is looking for?
Jiaojiao is not too poor, as long as the two of them work together and work hard with both hands to earn it.
Yongzi's mother's third sister, Wu Sangu, works as a housekeeper in Chengdu, not far from Jiaojiao's rented house, and comes to see the two from time to time and bring some meat.
The two of them were grateful in their hearts, and when they kept this love in their hearts, they didn't feel that life was hard.
Although Jiaojiao also cried that she couldn't eat a good meal of meat.
They couldn't afford to buy gas, so they only had a rice cooker brought by Wu Sangu.
If you want to stir-fry, Jiaojiao cooks the vegetables in the rice cooker first, and then cooks them.
She deeply understands the word "poor", and only when she leaves the campus can she understand how difficult life really is, and her dream of working to support herself when she was studying was shattered by the ruthless reality.
Yongzi began to earn more money every day, paid the rent, and saved some in addition to living expenses, Yongzi asked Jiaojiao not to be in a hurry to find a job, saying that the market for pedaling tricycles is getting worse and worse.
"Don't you still want to save up money to buy a licensed manpower three-wheeler?" Jiaojiao asked.
The social circle is full of people who make a living by pedaling a licensed human tricycle, and what Jiaojiao hears every day is that those women say how much their husbands earn every day, which is a good way to make a fortune, even Wu Sangu said so.
The younger brother of Wu San's brother-in-law's family pedaled a rickshaw for more than ten years and bought a house and a car in Chengdu.
Sometimes Yuko comes back early and takes the initiative to buy meat to cook. When he was in Shenzhen, he helped out in his uncle's restaurant, and that night he burned a pineapple braised pork ribs for Jiaojiao to eat.
Jiaojiao is not good at cooking, and slowly begins to accept and recognize Yongzi.
"It's a big deal, and it's going to cancel the human-powered tricycle."
