Chapter 9: The Preciousness of Food!
"I'm back!" Bai Xiuran took some food in his hand, put it on the table, and then lay on the sofa and rested for a while.
Inside the house, Xu Chanyi was knitting a sweater, and Nana helped her roll the yarn into a ball.
"It smells so good!" Nana threw down the yarn and jumped happily to the table, her eyes were a little evasive and looked at Xu Chanyi, afraid that Bai Xiuran would be unhappy and knock over the dishes.
Xu Chanyi bit her lip, this Bai Xiuran went out to drink again, but she brought something back today, she put the dishes in the pot and heated it, looked at the exhausted Bai Xiuran and said, "I didn't do the factory well, I'm really a useless person." ”
"You've worked hard, it's nothing to do with you, do your best, I got a job, I went to see it today, it's not bad." Bai Xiuran comforted.
Xu Chanyi was surprised, it turned out that the smell of alcohol on his body was a serious matter, just drink and not get drunk, Xu Chanyi sighed and continued: "What kind of job did you find, but don't go to show people the field, last time you didn't remember that the dog's legs in your village were broken." ”
Bai Xiuran knew that Xu Chanyi was worried, and smiled and said: "No, I found a store, it must be a serious matter, don't worry, I won't be so stupid, you hurry up and eat some more, there is meat." ”
"Hmm!"
Xu Chanyi and Nana haven't eaten meat for a long time, after the hot dish Nana gulped down, Xu Chanyi didn't eat a bite, just ate some tofu and vegetables, and deliberately got up to take a bowl, and said to Nana: "It's okay to keep these for grandpa." ”
"Good!" Nana said in a milky voice.
Bai Xiuran saw all this in his eyes, what a bastard person he was, this kind of woman is rare, she doesn't eat meat for her children, and she still keeps some of it for her father-in-law.
He swore that he must let the mother and daughter live a good life in this life, otherwise he Bai Xiuran would be called Black Briquette.
"Eat, it's okay, I'll buy it for him from Dad." Bai Xiuran picked up the chopsticks and put a piece of meat in Xu Chanyi's bowl, and accidentally dropped a small piece of chili pepper, Xu Chanyi hurriedly picked it up and ate it.
This reminded Bai Xiuran that when he was a child, his grandfather dropped a grain of rice, and he always picked it up and ate it, and if he didn't eat it, his grandfather said that it was a waste of food, and people who had not experienced hunger could not understand the importance of food.
"I'm full." Xu Chanyi finished eating the meat that Bai Xiuran sandwiched, stood up and continued to knit a sweater.
"Nana, can I send you to study?" Bai Xiuran looked at her three-year-old daughter and felt very distressed, in the future, the three-year-old children will all go to kindergarten, and she will add one to one now.
Nana was stunned for a moment, then turned to look at Xu Chanyidao; "Mom, I want to read too." Nana was very afraid of Bai Xiuran and was not close to him at all.
"You're only three years old, and people don't go to school until they're six or seven years old, and when you grow up, your mother will send you to school." Xu Chanyi stroked Nana's head, and the smile on her face filled the family with warmth at this moment.
"yes, okay." Nana pouted.
Bai Xiuran looked very happy, the family is like this, living happily together every day, he yawned and said, "I'll go to sleep first, I'm a little sleepy." ”
He walked into the house, fell asleep on the bed, and when he woke up, it was seven o'clock the next morning, Xu Chanyi went out, made breakfast for him and put it on the table.
After eating breakfast, Bai Xiuran washed the dishes and mopped them clean before going out, he had to go to the store first.
The department store is the only shopping mall in Longcheng, it used to be state-run, and it was only acquired last year, the location of the department store is not very far from home, Bai Xiuran walked slowly and leisurely with his feet.
As soon as I arrived halfway, I saw Zhang Bo, Zhang Bo was eating a popsicle in his mouth and smiled, licked his tongue a few times and handed it to Bai Xiuran and said, "Big brother, this thing relieves the heat, take a bite!" ”
"Get out!"
"No, I'm kidding." Zhang Bo scratched his head and said with some embarrassment: "I just bought it from my nephew, and that little kid cried so happily." ”
Bai Xiuran rolled his eyes, this guy is really nonsensical, say that he is simple, and he is very good to the people he loves, even his nephew wants popsicles.
"Don't say it's my brother, it's a big deal, you grabbed your nephew's popsicle and bought it." Bai Xiuran didn't have a good qi.
Zhang Bo smiled, took out a complete bag from his bag, waved it in front of Bai Xiuran, and said, "Just kidding, he cried and I bought him some homework books and spicy strips, this popsicle kid can't eat it with his teeth." ”
"Don't talk nonsense, don't you have nothing to do now?" Bai Xiuran hugged him and said very seriously.
Zhang Bo was stunned for a moment, and said with a face full of grievances: "It's not, I can't do the work at home, I'm idle all day long, and everyone in the village laughs at me for being a foreign uncle, fuck it." ”
"If you do it with me in the future, no one in the village will gossip about you, and whoever is chewing your tongue indiscriminately will return it." Bai Xiuran took out a cigarette from his bag, and the two of them swallowed the clouds and spit out the fog.
The village is like this, when you are good, some people want you to be poor, and when you are poor, these people will step on you a few times, people's hearts have always been like this, Bai Xiuran is no longer surprised.
"Good! I listen to my eldest brother. Zhang Bohan said.
Bai Xiuran really needs a helper now, talents are cultivated, he believes that Zhang Bo will be a good assistant in the future, at least this person's heart is very kind and direct, and he will not hide it.
"Let's go, come with me to the department store." Bai Xiuran waved his hand and walked towards the department store.
Today's department store building is actually not big, with a total of two floors, and it is not a closed shopping mall, more like a wholesale market, with potholes on the ground and all stores on all sides.
The inside is generally clothes to eat, the outside business is not particularly good, are some hardware tools, the reason is very simple, the building is cool in winter and warm in summer, not to mention, the layout is very tall, the wind blows outside, the mud and dust are flying all over the sky, a mouthful of ash, no one likes to go.
Jiang Nian's store is in the corner, only about ten meters away from the garbage heap, and it stinks, no wonder it can't be sold for half a year, and I don't know how to deal with this garbage.
When he opened the door, there was a musty smell inside, which made Bai Xiuran choke his nose, he patted the dust on his body, and sneered: "This place is really indescribable!" ”
"Bo! Let's clean up. ”
Zhang Bo rolled up his sleeves and did it, not to mention that it was quite neat, he went to the next door to borrow a broom, and he did it after dividing five by two, but the hair of both of them was gray, as if it had been dyed.
"This garbage stinks to death, and the second brother doesn't know how to clean it up by himself, it really is." Zhang Bo complained.
"It's okay, I'll find the person in charge." Bai Xiuran closed the door and walked into the building with Zhang Bo, he glanced at it, there were all kinds of items, there was no refrigerator on the first floor, and there was only one on the second floor.
Bai Xiuran walked into this store and took a look, the boss was a middle-aged bald man, he sent a cigarette and asked, "Boss, you seem to be Haier, how much does it cost." ”
When the boss saw that he knew the goods, he thought that the business was coming, and said enthusiastically: "These two thousand five, the other one thousand, depending on the kind you need, but the new goods with double doors are more expensive, and the big cities love this now." ”
"Not bad." Bai Xiuran smiled, the current side boxes are all small, about one meter and five meters high, they are very popular in this era, he took a few glances and walked out.
The boss frowned, and introduced it for a long time, and his feelings were a master who asked the price and didn't buy it, but he had seen a lot of this kind of person and was used to it.
Bai Xiuran looked at some more shops, but there was no special way to sell, he asked the person in charge of the department store to finish the garbage, and said to Zhang Bo seriously: "Do you have firecrackers at home, on the 19th, you go and call all the people working in your village, I will give one dollar to each person, and then call the suona team, which is also one dollar." ”
"We have it in our family, but what are you doing with it, big brother, so many people." Zhang Bo was very puzzled, and looked at Bai Xiuran with blinking eyes.
Bai Xiuran smiled and said: "You can call it, don't worry about other things, remember to come early in the morning, tomorrow and the day after tomorrow, we will decorate the store, and then bring the refrigerator over, don't forget it on the nineteenth." ”
"Okay!" Zhang Bo said lightly.
Hearing Zhang Bo's reply, Bai Xiuran breathed a sigh of relief, what he had to do in the next few days was to move the refrigerator over, decorate the store briefly, and then send the personal information to Yang Jianguo, and when everything was done, he would look at the nineteenth.
