Chapter Ninety-Three: Different realms lead to completely different thoughts
When it comes to finding a job, Liu Hao is really unhappy, and he secretly complains about Xu Shulai in his heart: Why do you stay in the countryside and go to the city to toss?
Just go home and farm...... The idea popped into him.
However, after all, it has come out, everything is ready, and the matter of the child's school is settled.
The most important thing is...... He thought of the villagers, what would they say? That day, Feng Lan praised their family for their ability, so they went back to their hometown without a head or tail? Doesn't it give people a joke?
Saying that Liu Hao is high doesn't seem to be the case, saying that he is lazy, and he is not bad at farming in the countryside...... Anyway, he just can't fit into the city, no one can talk to, nothing is his own.
Emperor Xu Shu was not in a hurry, the eunuch was in a hurry, and after being anxious, he didn't react and sulked. Liu Hao began to use his brain to think about work.
But after thinking about it for a while, I realized that except for Xu Shuti's few jobs, I really couldn't find any other jobs.
Come on, let's go to the street during the day, I can't think of it.
The next day was Tuesday, Xu Shu had to go to work at the school, the school cafeteria was being expanded and renovated, there were a few masters to eat, and there was also sanitation to do. Liu Ming and Xu Jie stayed at home to do homework or read books, and Liu Hao had to look for a job.
He walked down the street very blindly, looking east and west.
There are clothing stores or restaurants on both sides of the street, but there are advertisements for jobs, but the workers who can be recruited are waiters, and there is no suitable one for him. He couldn't help muttering: No wonder Xu Shu likes the city, it's easier to find a job for women here.
He wandered around blindly, and before he knew it, he was wandering into the vegetable market.
He didn't buy vegetables for three days, so he asked the price of the dishes by the way, but he didn't expect the thief to be expensive, the radish needs six corners, and the vegetables need five corners...... You can't eat all of these in the countryside, and most of them are still eaten by pigs! In this way, it seems that it is somewhat feasible for Xu Shu to grow vegetables and sell them here! But he's still very screwed, and he's renting land here, so I might as well go back to my hometown and plant my own land, and wait for them to come home on vacation so that I can bring more out......
Thinking that the vegetables that were everywhere in the countryside would be so expensive in the city, of course he was reluctant to buy them, so he turned around and came out empty-handed.
There are also roasted sweet potatoes sold on the side of the road, and there is a piece of paper pasted on the side of the oven, which reads: 2 yuan a catty. Ah, this sweet potato is for pigs in the countryside, and it can be sold for two yuan a pound here?
But all he thought of was: why don't you go home and take more out of it? I don't want to grow some sweet potatoes in the city to sell.
There were also fields and fields in small cities, and he couldn't help but run to them.
If you don't look at the mountains and fields, you can't see it, and you are completely immersed in homesickness!
For a moment, he remembered the mountains and rivers of his hometown, his house, and the trees and vegetables he planted with his own hands......
Why do you want to return? Why do you want to return?
After making up his mind, he stopped looking for random work.
Liu Hao didn't go back until half past 12, and just a little when he got home, Xu Shu just came out of school.
There is no need to boil the lunch meal, Xu Shu put the boiled rice and soup into the hot water bottle early in the morning, and it will be automatic at noon
It's rotten into porridge.
Xu Shu has confessed that if there is a wash in her school, then eat it later, maybe there will be leftovers, if she doesn't cook some at home.
There weren't many leftovers today, but there were a lot of leftovers, so they took out pickles to make do.
"I have to go back...... It is difficult to make money here, and there is everything in the hometown, so that the children can go back to their hometown after the holidays, so that they can bring a lot of things from their hometown and save a lot of money. Liu Hao said suddenly halfway through eating.
"This ...... It's all out, the rent isn't much, and you won't increase one more, we don't pick the meals, and I can often bring some leftovers back...... It's not a lot of money. Although I can make everything by myself in my hometown, I can't sell anything in my hometown. Xu Shu was a little puzzled.
"I'm very uncomfortable here, I'm not used to it, I don't even have a person to chat, and I'm very ...... panic," Liu Hao said.
"If you really want to go back, I can't help it. Well, the children will be in school in two weeks, and I guess they will have to work in the cafeteria for both weeks, and you will have to watch the children for you, or will you wait for them to go to school before you go back? In that case, Liu Ming lives in the school, and Xu Jie also goes home after school, so I can rest assured that I can work in the cafeteria......"
"Okay, I'll take the two children to the mountains to get you more firewood in the next few days......"
"Looks like that's all it takes......"
"The roots of my hometown still can't be lost casually, the roots are there, and I really can't mix it up in the future, and there is a place to stay." As soon as Xu Shu agreed, Liu Hao spoke much more neatly.
The family lives in two places, this taste is definitely not good, but it is not interesting to leave Liu Hao, to keep others, absent-minded, that smell is like chewing wax! Don't you see him dull and annoyed every day? If you have it, it's better to be short than a newlywed, and distance produces beauty, so let him go back! It's good to go home for the New Year.
After lunch, Xu Shu went back to work in the canteen.
To say that this Liu Hao is also very capable, he is not idle, and decided to get a few shelves for Xu Shu and the children to put things.
But they only had kitchen knives and axes, no planers, no saws, and no wood knives, so they had to borrow them.
He stood at the door of the landlord's house for a while, but he was embarrassed and couldn't open his mouth, so he felt a little annoyed: there are a lot of these tools in his hometown, and he would have brought a few out if he knew it.
Liu Hao is really incompetent in asking for help, it seems that he can only wait for Xu Shu to borrow it.
If he has bamboo, he can also make a bamboo basket or something, and if he has wooden planks, he can also make several stools or tables......
Alas, there is nothing you want in the city, "it is difficult for a good woman to cook without rice", she can't do anything, I really don't know what Xu Shu is here.
He had to do something anyway, but he really couldn't find what he could do, so he felt that this half day was like a year.
Fortunately, Xu Shu went home at half past five in the afternoon.
"Xu Shu, can you go and borrow some tools? saws, planers, hatchet...... Borrow me to work. As soon as Xu Shu went home, Liu Hao said so.
"Ah, you have to borrow so many things?"
"yes, I'll make you a few shelves...... Alas, these tools wait for you next time
I'll have to bring a few things home with me. It's really hard to open your mouth when borrowing from others. ”
"It's nothing, I'll borrow it, I'll pay it back when I'm out anyway." You have a request for others now, and you are not ashamed to open your mouth, and you will be embarrassed to open your mouth to us if they have any difficulties in the future, good neighbors are better than relatives, and distant relatives are not as good as close neighbors. After Xu Shu finished speaking, she went to the landlord.
"Auntie, I have to borrow something from you again, it's really embarrassing to trouble you all the time, I have to meet a good person......"
"If you want anything, just say it, you can just use what I have." The landlord is also cheerful.
Xu Shu was very simple, and generously borrowed this and that from the landlord, of course, her mouth was also sweet, the left sentence aunt and the right sentence uncle, Liu Hao was covered with goosebumps when she heard it. Of course, she is a trustworthy person, and when she was building the stove, she returned what she borrowed when she ran out. Of course, the landlord is willing to lend something to this sweet-mouthed and trustworthy girl.
They are lonely, their children are not around, life is in a panic, Xu Shu's family lives in to make them feel less lonely, how good.
Liu Hao is really a little wooden in interpersonal communication, and it is no wonder that he can't fit into the big city.
"You guys go to bed early today, and I'll take you to the mountains to pick up some firewood tomorrow and come back......" With the tools, Liu Hao's enthusiasm came.
Staying at home, the two children wanted to go out for a walk, and when they heard that they could go to the mountains, they were happy.
There are also mountains in the city, and some farmers still use firewood and briquette stoves. Therefore, there are still people who go to the mountains to collect firewood.
The first two days went well, and they picked up some dry branches and roots. On the third day, it was the weekend, and Xu Shu happened to be resting, so they went together. Liu Hao thought, when the two adults come, let's chop some big firewood. Who knows that the small county town is still a little different from the countryside. In rural areas, small timber such as pine trees can be cut at will, regardless of who owns it. A small county town is not your own home's own mountain, so you can only pick up dead branches and leaves, dry branches and roots. Large timber is not allowed to be cut by others. Liu Hao was just about to cut it, and the owner just saw it, so he scolded him.
"This is my wood, you are so bold, people dare to steal it?"
"That's a terrible thing to say! We're not stealing ......" Liu Hao was a little annoyed and muttered.
"Isn't it stealing to cut wood on someone else's mountain?" The other party's voice was louder, almost menacing.
"Ah, master, we really don't know, if it's really stealing, how can there be such a stupid thief? I'm sure I steal it when no one is around at night! How is it possible to steal in front of you? I'm so sorry! We are countrymen, we just came to the city, and we didn't know that the city was different from the country, which made you make fun of us. Xu Shu was originally picking up dead branches below, but when she heard the mountain master scolding Liu Hao, she hurriedly stepped forward to round the field.
"Oh, that's it, I'll forgive you the first time, but I can't do it again." Xu Shu's words also make sense, if you want to steal, you can't steal it in front of the owner, so it's a misunderstanding? So, the man's tone softened.
"Thank you, master! I'm so embarrassed! Xu Shu apologized again.
It doesn't matter that Liu Hao can't speak in the countryside, here
In the city, if you can't speak, you will suffer.
"Ah, such a beautiful and intelligent woman should marry such a man...... " At this moment, a woman above the man cried.
The speaker has no intention, but the listener has the intention.
Then Liu Hao's heart was not happy, and he almost went over: We are a halfway husband and wife, I am a big man, marry a person who is married and has a son, and I still lose!
But fortunately, he is not good at scaring people, and if he says it, it will be even more ridiculous.
He stepped aside, feeling that the people in this city were really powerful, and they were not friendly at all.
"Alas, turnip greens have their own loves, he doesn't speak sweetly, but he is good and has good craftsmanship...... That, in fact, what you just said is also very hurtful. Xu Shu replied without being arrogant or humble, and there was no anger in her tone.
The other party still felt that he had indeed spoken a little too much, so he smiled at Xu Shu.
Unable to cut firewood, they had to go back and pick up dead branches.
The woman seemed a little reluctant to go, and asked kindly, "Did you pick it up and sell it?" Now many places want this, ten yuan and one hundred catties. ”
"Such? Ah, we're not, we just pick up some for our own use. Xu Shu replied with a smile, but she was thinking in her heart, ten yuan and one hundred catties, then picking this up is also very good for a living!
