On the day, Wu Beijiang was sitting alone in the house, someone knocked on the door, and when the door opened, it was Wu Xiaomei, a ten-year-old girl, who came in. Wu Beijiang saw his little sister, touched her head and asked, "Why haven't you slept yet!" Wu Xiaomei looked behind her, entered Wu Beijiang's room, closed the door gently, and said in a suppressed voice: "Brother, are you going to get married?" Wu Beijiang nodded. Wu Xiaomei took out a paper bag from her pocket and handed it to her brother.

Wu Beijiang was a little inexplicable, opened it and looked, it was full of one-point, two-cent banknotes, one of which was particularly familiar, and there was a crease in the corner of that banknote, which was Wu Beijiang's pocket money a few months ago. Wu Xiaomei smiled and said: "Brother, I see that you are unhappy, are you worried about money, I will give you everything, you hurry up and marry your sister-in-law back." Wu Beijiang's hand holding these gross tickets trembled slightly, and there was a faint sourness in his heart.

In addition to Wu Beijiang, the Wu family has three younger sisters, namely Wu Dongmei, Wu Ermei and Wu Xiaomei. Wu Beijiang has the best relationship with this little sister.

Wu Beijiang always remembered that one year, the family had no money to pay Wu Beijiang's tuition, Wu Beijiang was in a hurry, Wu Xiaomei quietly went to the scrap yard to do two months of work, in the hot day, every day in the sun, and finally gave Wu Beijiang more than a dollar, and she was like a black monkey. Later, Wu Beijiang heard that in order to save money, Wu Xiaomei was reluctant to buy a sip of water to drink in hot weather, and almost fainted a few times.

Wu Beijiang returned the money to Wu Xiaomei: "You take this money back, my brother is working now, and he has money." You take good care of yourself. Wu Xiaomei refused to take it back, "Brother, I think Sister Luo Xi is very good to you, you should marry her as soon as possible, I don't have anything to spend money on, brother, you take it." After speaking, he gave the money to Wu Beijiang, turned around and ran. Wu Beijiang pinched the money and sat alone for a long time.

Tong Yan listened to Lu Jinzhi's gossip about it, and felt that Luo Ximei's courage was too big, and she dared to make a marriage report with Wu Beijiang before she had decided to return her family, which was really convincing. Lu Jinzhi knew a little bit and told Tong Yan: Luo Ximei and Luo Qin are distant relatives, and the two families don't have much contact, but they live in a village, and Luo Ximei also knows about Luo Qin's marriage. Luo Qin's money for studying was paid by her mother-in-law's family, and now that she has learned her skills, her life should be better, but because her mother-in-law's family paid for the tuition, Luo Qin has not been able to raise her head in her mother-in-law's house. The relationship with my mother-in-law and sister-in-law is not good, I can't manage my own money, and I am wronged and wronged.

Luo Ximei was stimulated, thinking that she would go to school, her in-law's family would also subsidize a little, and her family would also increase the bride price money, and if her life would be like Luo Qin in the future, it would be better not to go to school at that time. So Luo Ximei plans to take a look.

She liked Wu Beijiang in school, and now she is in the same unit as Wu Beijiang, and now both of them belong to the logistics department, so there are more contacts. Luo Ximei has always shown favor to Wu Beijiang, and Wu Beijiang has endured it like this, and the relationship between the two has also been cultivated. Then, Luo Ximei wanted to cut it first and then play it, and typed the marriage report, and when it was approved, she could take the marriage report and withdraw from the marriage. Since it is approved by the organization, it is more effective than the family affairs agreed upon orally. The only thing that wasn't in Luo Ximei's calculations was that the family knew about Luo Ximei's marriage report in advance, so they didn't have to rush, so they rushed to the machinery factory to make trouble.

Tong Yan sighed, Luo Ximei's brain is really good! It's just a little unlucky, if things go according to Luo Ximei's idea, then the family can only pinch their noses and admit that this person is a talent!

Lu Jinzhi listened to Tong Yan's exclamation, flicked one on Tong Yan's head, and blamed: "Your outlook on life has to be corrected, these messes are not what you want to learn." Tong Yan touched the painful place and gave Lu Jinzhi a big look.

Later, Lu Jinzhi and Tong Yan said a serious thing: after the previous study class, Director Wei wanted Tong Yan to continue to open a new class, and the students recruited this time were basically people with no financial foundation, and the key was people from other brother units.

"Other units?" Tong Yan was surprised, "What does the other units have to do with me?" Lu Jinzhi also knew that Tong Yan didn't understand the doorway inside, and explained: "It's all in the same system, how can everyone not have contact, a little more and a little less, there is always something involved." They want to go to the city for meetings, they want to organize study, and they don't see what they look up and look down. Director Wei shirked a few times and kept saying, you are busy. Now that the class is over, you're not busy. Again, they saw that the first batch of students had learned it, and the effect was good, and they were all red-eyed. In the past few days, Director Wei has not done anything, so he is busy answering the phone. ”

Tong Yan sighed, it was really sad. But I agreed.

When Director Wei heard that Tong Yan agreed, he was so beautiful in his heart that he called those people one by one. Why do you want to make a phone call? You want benefits! The people in the machinery factory can't call you in vain, if you don't take some benefits, you want to learn skills, there is no way!

When Accountant Xu heard the news, he felt the fire in his heart! The people on his side would be called by this person, and they would be called by that person, endlessly! The old man went to Director Feng's office angrily and sprinkled a fire, and his heart was happy, although he was reluctant, he still agreed to let him go.

Tong Yan is not in a hurry, the class has not started yet, waiting for Director Wei to arrange the students and arrange the venue, she doesn't ask anything. Director Wei likes Tong Yan's temper the most, and praises Tong Yan for being sensible.

Lu Jinzhi watched Tong Yan idle, and asked tentatively, "How is my gift prepared?" Tong Yan was embarrassed, she had almost forgotten about it. Lu Jinzhi looked at Tong Yan's appearance, and guessed a few points, and his face darkened.

Tong Yan is coquettish and obedient, and she can't coax Lu Jinzhi. In the end, he had no choice but to give a fragrant kiss to coax Lu Jinzhi. Lu Jinzhi touched the cheek that was kissed by Tong Yan, a little regretful. If Tong Yan is willing to kiss her mouth, then the gift is optional.

Tong Yan decided to go find Uncle Cao. Uncle Cao was also a little embarrassed when he saw Tong Yan, this matter has been delayed for a long time. However, he brought a message to Tong Yan that there was an old man who had some good things in his hands, but the asking price was too high, and Uncle Cao felt that the person who was willing to buy it was sick in the brain, so he didn't tell Tong Yan. Tong Yan couldn't care about these things now, and asked to take a look.

When Tong Yan saw the old man's things, her heart moved. This is a jade plaque, carved with four gentlemen, Tong Yan counted, at least more than five carving methods, the picture is lifelike, delicate. , such a carving is also a must. The material is also close to the color of emerald. The color is positive, the water head is good, the materials and carvings are good, Tong Yan feels worthy of Lu Jinzhi.

asked the price, Tong Yan also smacked her tongue, thirty catties of fine noodles, twenty catties of coarse grains plus ten catties of meat, fifty yuan. If there is no supply, two hundred and twenty pieces are to be taken.

After listening to this, Uncle Cao pulled Tong Yan away, and scolded the old man: "Black-hearted, there weren't so many last time, a broken brand, not as big as a palm, if it's so expensive, I'll be wronged." The old man didn't mean to stop him at all, and sneered, "Layman, I don't know the goods." Tong Yan looked at the old man, although his clothes were a little shabby and shabby, but his temperament was still there, and he should be a person with a story. The old man also knew that Uncle Cao was not a buyer, so he looked at Tong Yan with a pair of slightly cloudy eyes, and did not speak.

Tong Yan grabbed Uncle Cao and told him to calm down. Negotiate the price with the old man, "Uncle, the thing is good, although I am not an expert, I also know that this thing is good, it can be regarded as a high-quality product, but this price is really ...... Can you give way a little bit?"

The old man finally smiled a little and said, "You still know a little bit, you know that it is a good thing, and you should know that I don't want you much." Tong Yan looked at this brand, really liked it, endured the pain, and spit out a word, "Okay!"

Tong Yan and the old man agreed to come over tomorrow to trade. When he went out, Uncle Cao kept asking: "Tong Yan, are you sure of it?" If you are deceived, you will lose a lot." Tong Yan knew that these things were also fake, but they shouldn't be as common as in later generations, and those things didn't seem to be fake.

The next day, Tong Yan took a leave of absence, borrowed a bicycle, and sent all the things the old man said. When the old man saw Tong Yan, his face showed a relaxed and a little sad expression.

The old man found a scale and weighed all the things given by Tong Yan, not only did he not lose the weight, but the scales were all high. After carefully checking the quality of the grain, the old man took out the jade plate, and a pair of old hands rubbed the jade plate for a long time before handing it to Tong Yan, and only said: "Keep it well!" Tong Yan took the jade card with a little temperature, and said solemnly: "Don't worry, I like this brand very much, I must take good care of it, it will be my family heirloom." The old man waved his hand and told Tong Yan to hurry up. When Tong Yan was about to step out of the door, the old man gave Tong Yan a sentence: Do good deeds and cherish things, and the blessings will be endless.

Tong Yan happily put the jade card into the space, thinking that she wanted to surprise Lu Jinzhi. Unexpectedly, Lu Jinzhi gave her a surprise first-Lu Jinzhi bought a house. When Lu Jinzhi brought Tong Yan to the place and looked at the two huts, Tong Yan was still a little excited.

Buying a house now is not like buying a house in later generations, as long as you have the money, you can buy it casually. Nowadays, houses are basically not sold, and most of the houses are state-owned and cannot be bought and sold. So the two huts, and the one with the fence, are really good.

The house is in a semi-new state, the yard is not big, there are some vegetables planted in the corner, and there is an unknown flower, which is a little interesting to look at. The house was empty, and the furniture was empty. Lu Jinzhi said: "This family moved to the city, and the son gained a firm foothold in the city, and the old man and wife followed. The house was sold, and I saw that the two of them were fairly clean, so I bought it. Tong Yan smiled with crooked eyebrows.

Lu Jinzhi took Tong Yan to go inside, and found that there was a kitchen behind a room, and there was a water tank next to the kitchen. Tong Yan nodded straightly, and Lu Jinzhi said seriously: "Here is for you to cook, didn't you say that you want to cook for me?" ”

Just do it, Tong Yan moved the briquette stove from the dormitory, and sent Lu Jinzhi back to him to get some seasoning. Lu Jin went out on the front foot, and on the back foot, Tong Yan took a lot of ingredients out of the space, and when Lu Jinzhi came back, he saw Tong Yan washing vegetables in the small courtyard. Lu Jinzhi smiled: "Your speed is quite fast." Tong Yan was shocked, and secretly thought that she was overjoyed, so she had to smile and pretend to be stupid. Lu Jinzhi looked at Tong Yan's appearance, and that strange feeling came again. Lu Jinzhi went to investigate Tong Yan, and since he found out that Tong Yan went to collect ancient books, he checked it, not because he doubted Tong Yan's character, but because he was afraid that in the current situation, Tong Yan would have any problems, and he would be caught off guard if he was found out.

Of course, after checking it, Lu Jinzhi felt that it was not right. In S City, he didn't find the orphanage that Tong Yan said. At the beginning of the founding of the People's Republic of China, some orphanages were indeed established to adopt children who had no one to take care of them, and the scale was large and small, some were run by the state and some were built collectively. Later, some of the orphans grew up and left, some were adopted, and some were merged. The orphanage that Tong Yan said, Lu Jinzhi did not find out. Maybe it's a lack of information, maybe it's ...... It simply doesn't exist.

Lu Jinzhi didn't want to think about it. He thinks that Tong Yan is already his, so it is his responsibility to take care of her and arrange everything. So Lu Jinzhi did not continue to investigate, on the contrary, he dealt with all the problems that should be dealt with, and now Tong Yan has a past that can withstand investigation.

Lu Jinzhi took some tableware and wok and put them in the kitchen. Tong Yan washed the dishes and let Lu Jinzhi rest. Lu Jinzhi said: There is nothing, not even a stool, where can I rest. Tong Yan didn't let Lu Jinzhi stay in the kitchen, so Lu Jinzhi had to go to the small courtyard. Standing in the small courtyard, Lu Jinzhi could hear the "crackling" sound of the oil pot under the vegetables, the "bell" sound when stir-frying, the sound of Tong Yan humming a small song, Lu Jinzhi's eyebrows and eyes were gentle, he was really happy today!

After a long day's work, two dishes and one soup are fine. No table, it doesn't matter, there's a small partition in the kitchen, no chairs, it doesn't matter, there's a few bricks in the yard, stacked on top of each other to sit people. The kitchen is small, it doesn't matter, sit in a crowd, isn't it still close!

Two people sit next to each other, the white flour steamed buns are loose and soft, the fried vegetables are crisp and refreshing, the fried pork ribs are crispy on the outside and crispy on the inside, and the mushroom soup is fragrant. In the kitchen filled with the smell of oil smoke, Lu Jinzhi ate a delicious meal that will never be forgotten.

After eating, Lu Jinzhi, who has always been very vivid, touched his stomach, looked at a table of empty plates and bowls, took a long breath, and praised Tong Yan: "The craftsmanship is good!" Tong Yan replied to him: "Thank you for the compliment." ”

Lu Jinzhi grabbed Tong Yan's waist, kissed Tong Yan's face, and said shamelessly: "A reward for you." Tong Yan glared at him angrily. Lu Jinzhi didn't care, and he had to move forward. Tong Yan pushed him: "Don't you smell the smell of oil smoke on my body?" Lu Jinzhi opened his eyes and said nonsense: "No." Tong Yan was even more annoyed and pushed him hard. Seeing that Tong Yan was really going to be on fire, Lu Jinzhi stood up and said while cleaning up the dishes and chopsticks: "We still need to add something, if you need anything, tell me." I'm going to buy it. Tong Yan propped up her head and wanted to make a purchase list, and Lu Jinzhi went to wash the dishes.
