When she was not in high school before, Shang Xia would go grocery shopping with her whenever she was free, but now it is rare to go with her once, and Shang Xiaohe naturally did not refuse.

"Okay, then you go and get your shoes on."

After hastily getting ready, the two went out.

When he arrived at the vegetable market, Shang Xiaohe walked to the shop he was used to buying.

"Sister Li, today's fish looks very good!" Shang Xiaohe looked at the fish in the tank and said with a smile.

"I just sent it here early this morning, all of them are fresh fish caught in the reservoir, this taste and meat quality is nothing to say, there is no such thing in this market, you have to grasp it!" Sister Li responded with a smile.

"That's okay, then I'll pick first!" Shang Xiaohe took a closer look.

"Eh, isn't this Xia Xia? It's been a long time since I've seen it, why have I grown so tall! The aunt who bought the fish swept her eyes and stared at Shang Xia and exclaimed.

"Hello Auntie, I happened to be idle today, so I went out for a walk with my mother." Shang Xia responded politely.

"You kid is really well-behaved, Xia Xia, I heard that you are about to enter the third year of high school, right?" Seeing acquaintances, the aunt couldn't help but babble a few more sentences.

Without waiting for Shang Xia to speak, Shang Xiaohe responded, "Yes, do you remember it clearly, in more than a month, she will be an official senior high school student, and she also took the first place in the whole level in the final exam this time, this kid, I really don't have to worry about it." ”

Shang Xiaohe said, not showing off yet.

"Xia Xia is really amazing." When the aunt heard this, she gave Shang Xia a thumbs up, "Xiaohe, then you are really blessed." ”

When she said this, Shang Xia clearly saw a trace of something flash in her aunt's eyes, but before she could see it, the look in her eyes quickly disappeared.

"Okay, Sister Li, I'm optimistic, I want this."

Shang Xiaohe pointed to the medium-sized crucian carp and said.

"Okay, Ah Hang, quickly put it on for your Aunt He!"

The aunt who sold the fish shouted in the back.

Emirates?

When Shang Xia heard this, he frowned slightly.

Why is this name so familiar?

After a while, a man stood up from the small bench and fixed his eyes to see that the texture between Shang Xia's eyebrows was deeper.

Isn't this Aunt Li's son Lin Hang?

That's when she remembered.

When she was in junior high school, she and Lin Hang were in the same class, although their mothers knew each other, but Lin Hang was an introvert and a real reader at that time, and the two did not say a few words in junior high school.

It's just that he remembers one thing very clearly, although this boy's grades in other subjects are very average, but his Chinese is exceptionally good, and the Chinese teacher in the class also likes him very much, and often reads his compositions to the whole class, and the head teacher even deliberately leaves a small space on the blackboard behind the teacher, which is specially used to top his writing as a reference.

But later......

Recalling the past, Shang Xia instantly understood why Lin Hang appeared here.

Lin Hang stepped forward without saying a word, no one looked at him, followed Shang Xiaohe's fingers, and grabbed the fish.

Killing fish, disemboweling, scraping fish scales, everything is done neatly.

After processing, Aunt Li wrapped the fish in a plastic bag and put it in her vegetable basket.

"Sister Li, you still say that I am blessed, aren't you the same, your family Lin Hang is not also very sensible, and he will come to the store to help you on holidays."

Shang Xiaohe said while paying.

Aunt Li's change hand suddenly paused, and then she didn't say anything, just smiled back.

Shang Xiaohe didn't feel at ease, and after saying goodbye in a hurry, he went to the next shop to buy vegetables.

Shang Xia, who was following behind, looked at Lin Hang who had returned to the small bench, and had an indescribable feeling in his heart.

"Mom, I'll tell you something." After all the vegetables were bought out of the vegetable market, Shang Xia took a deep breath and said.

"What's the matter?"

"Lin Hang is no longer in school, he called his family back when he was in the third year of junior high school, saying that it was useless for him to study, and asked him to take over his father's class."

Shang Xia said without being salty, but Shang Xiaohe's eyes widened when he heard it.

"What? Is there such a thing? ”

Shang Xia nodded.

"In this way, Lin Hang will appear in the fish shop, is it ......"

"It's because of the recent "breaking the iron rice bowl and breaking the lifelong policy" that he was laid off. ”

With his job gone, he couldn't read any books, and Lin Hang had no choice but to inherit his mother's career and continue to sell fish in the vegetable market.

I used to learn an article and do "hurt Zhongyong", but I didn't expect that such a thing would really happen to me.

Shang Xiaohe didn't speak, just lowered his head and sighed.

"Mom, actually, I came out with you today, and I have one more thing to discuss with you."

Shang Xia took the opportunity to speak.

Shang Xiaohe had medical treatment in his heart early in the morning, and he didn't stop it.

"Huang Biao that day, you should still remember it, right?"

Shang Xiaohe nodded, and looked at Huang Biao's appearance, she couldn't forget it.

"His mother was also laid off, and for all these years, he and his sister have been dragged and beaten by this job, and seeing that September is approaching, and it is time to pay the tuition fees......"

Just a few words, Shang Xiaohe also understood in his heart.

"So what to do? You can't let your child out of school, right? Shang Xiaohe was anxious.

One Lin Hang was enough to make her feel distressed, and she didn't want another such poor child to appear around her.

"Shang Xia, why don't we borrow a little first?"

In addition to the basic living expenses, Shang Xiaohe's money was basically given to Shang Xia to save, and if you calculate it, it should not be in the way to lend out some of it.

"Huang Biao called last night, I have already talked to him, and said that let his mother also come to work in the shop together, and when the time comes, there will be one more manpower, and you can be regarded as having a care."

As soon as he talked about this, the smile on Shang Xiaohe's face suddenly froze.

"You kid, why did you decide to do this?"

Shang Xia's promise, didn't Shang Xiaohe have to go if he didn't want to?

"Mom, what's the matter, aren't you worried about their family's situation? That's one of the best job opportunities, and besides, you actually want to go too, don't you? ”

"But ......"

"Mom, when do you have to hesitate, the rent of the store has already been paid, and if you hesitate for one more day, we will waste one more day of rent. You think about the money that ran into other people's pockets in vain, think about Huang Biao's poor sister, can you bear it? ”

Shang Xia said coldly, for soft-hearted people, this is the most effective killer tool.

"That'...... How do you tell your dad? Even if you say that, will your dad agree? ”

Shang Xia period Ai Ai said.

Although she didn't respond accurately, in Shang Xia's opinion, this could be regarded as agreeing.

"My father, as your husband, heard that there was such a rare opportunity, and he should support you to do it, right?"

Shang Xiaohe didn't respond, what kind of character Chen Yougui was, how could she not know. According to her, there is a good chance that he will not agree.

"It's okay, Mom, don't worry, I'll talk to Dad about this."

Shang Xia patted his chest and said with a heartfelt voice.

"Well, I'll try to convince her too."

Seeing that Shang Xia was so confident, Shang Xiaohe also puffed up.

"Then let's hurry home!"

The two of them couldn't help but speed up their pace.

……

"No way!"

As expected, at the dining table, Chen Yougui's chopsticks slammed on the table, blowing his beard and staring at him and shouting.

"I just said, I shouldn't have given you a trip back then, but now I look, and I'll get into trouble as soon as I come back! What go out to see the shops? What got your mom a job? I think you have a sick brain and think too much, what era is it now, you think you can get a job if you say you want to find a job? I think you're lying to someone outside! ”

It is better for me to believe in the people outside than in you.

Shang Xia couldn't help muttering in his heart.

"If you don't believe me, we'll go early tomorrow morning to see if it's true. This is a store opened by my friend's mother, can you still lie to me? People just don't believe it, so they deliberately gave half a month's salary first, na, look! ”

Shang Xia put his hand on the table, and his eyes lit up when he saw Grandpa Mao.

Chen Yougui was speechless for a while, looked at the money on the table and swallowed his saliva, there are five hundred yuan in half a month, and after a month, isn't it even higher than his salary?

"It's because there is too much shortage of manpower in the shop, so I'm so anxious to find someone and give all the money."

With red eyes in his heart, Chen Yougui didn't admit defeat on his lips, and snorted coldly disdainfully, "Just this kind of small shop, maybe it will be closed that day, what is there to go?" ”

"This can be done for a few days, anyway, now that the money has been given, I have promised to come down, so I can't say no now, right? Besides, now in the family, my sister is also married, I am also in my third year of high school, and I don't need my mother to take care of it at home, my mother has worked hard for so many years, she is now going to the outside to take a look and do some work she likes, don't you support it? ”

As soon as these words came out, Chen Yougui didn't dare to say a "no" word at will, a simple word, although it might cause a spark between husband and wife.

"It's not that the family can't afford to support your mother, what are you doing so far? So that my Chen family's face will be thrown out of the door? Chen Yougui did not answer the rhetorical question.

"If your mother goes out to work, what will the neighbors think of us? What will those relatives and colleagues think of me? Shang Xia, I think you want to make trouble for me, right? ”

Thinking of Chen Xi's three aunts and six mothers-in-law and her mother's family, Shang Xiaohe has countless mouths as soon as he counts, and when he talks about it, he can't block it.

"Why don't you ......" Shang Xiaohe elbowed Shang Xia next to him.

Before she could continue, Shang Xia immediately interrupted.

"Dad, have you forgotten, the expenses in this family are half of you and your mother, where is there any saying that who supports whom? If you really don't remember, why don't I show you the ledger and take a good look at it?

Besides, it's hard to find a job now, even if the people around you know about it, it's too late to envy it, what else is there to gossip? "I want to talk about "Rebirth 1996" with more like-minded people, and pay attention to "excellent reading literature" on WeChat, talk about life, and find confidants~
