As soon as my mother left with the cat in her arms, a bicycle drove by from the south.

"Wangwang~"

The three dogs immediately barked, and Wang Yuan looked at it and found that it was his father-in-law, Li Wu.

Li Wu was wearing a blue labor cloth coat and a dusty hat, and when he was far away, he bared his teeth and shouted at Wang Yuan:

"Xiaoyuan! Is my daughter at home? Hurry up and open the door and I'll ride straight in. ”

The handlebars of the bicycle were hung with cloth cloth pockets, which wobbled as the bicycle bumped on the dirt road.

Wang Yuan hurriedly opened the fence gate, and Li Yan, who heard the movement, also hurriedly ran out of the house.

"Dad, why are you here?"

"Look at what you said, you haven't been home for so long, your mother is worried about you, so don't you let me come to see you."

Li Wu grinded the front wheel from the sole of his shoe, and finally stopped when the bicycle was about to hit the firewood stack.

He took off his cloth pocket, swept his gaze over Wang Yuan and Li Yan, and then walked towards the house.

"I don't have to do it at noon, I brought roast chicken, pork liver, grilled fish, let's just eat this...... Are you still stunned? Into the house? ”

"Oh, isn't my mother still strong?"

"It's very strong, and I go to herd sheep every day."

Although Li Wu did bring a lot of dishes, Wang Yuan still stewed an old hen, steamed a fish, and scrambled eggs.

Li Wu saw the Moutai wine on the counter, poured a small glass of self-sufficiency, and persuaded Wang Yuan not to fry so many dishes while drinking, the dishes were already enough.

Plates of dishes were quickly baked and served on the table one after another, Wang Yuan keenly felt that the old man was happy because of the many fried dishes.

If Wang Yuan really listened to his father-in-law Li Wu and stopped stir-frying, then Li Wu would probably be unhappy in his heart.

The three of them sat next to the kang table, and in the whirling sound of the electric fan, wah-wow-wow~, they directly began to feast in large pieces.

"Well, Xiaoyuan, do you still have the skills to cook? Stir-fried this dish, okay! You can try the roast chicken I bought, it's delicious, that is, I really can't buy it if I have a big face. ”

Li Yan wanted to laugh instantly, could she still know her father? Daddy has a fart face, he has never lost a bragga, and he has never won an errand.

Li Wu glared at Li Yan and changed the subject: "The whole roast chicken can't be eaten, come, I'll tear it open for him."

"Don't don't, I'll come, I'll come."

Li Yan hurriedly interrupted her father's words, and she took the first step to start tearing the roast chicken with her hands.

Li Wu's fingers were black and calloused, and the underside of his fingernails was black and muddy, and if he was allowed to tear it up, those dirty things would probably get on the chicken.

Thinking about that picture, Li Yan felt sick to her stomach.

Li Wu is also a little unhappy now, he found that the big woman lives a really good life, the clothes she wears are good-looking, her face is white, her hair is oily and slippery, and she looks like a city person more like a city person.

But the daughter didn't seem to be happy about her arrival, but a little disgusted.

Wang Yuan keenly sensed Li Wu's emotional changes, raised his wine glass with a smile and said:

"Come, I'll toast you!"

"Okay, cheers!"

"The pork liver you bought is good, it's just right to drink, where did you buy it, and I'll buy some when I have time."

"It's just south of the street in the commune, do you know Fat Liu? It's diagonally opposite Fat Liu's house. Li Wu felt that his capable son-in-law respected him, which made him very happy.

Li Wu is an outlier in the countryside, unwilling to farm, running around but mixing very poorly, being ridiculed by the villagers and unable to raise his head to his relatives, and he is also a little inferior.

The reason why I often brag is because I want to raise my own value and hope to gain the respect of others.

It's a pity that in the end, not only did it fail to gain the respect of others, but it attracted more ridicule, just like a clown.

"Oh, you are young, you don't know Liu Fatzi, we dug the river together, and I am also Liu Fatzi is a team, one day when Liu Fatzi was running fast at noon.

As a result, the horse stepped on the horse, and the old man with a swollen foot shaft couldn't do his work, and I helped him finish the work, and he almost exhausted me.

Now that Liu Fatzi is developed, he is trembling, he didn't hear me talking to him in the commune, it's really not a thing, this person can't do it, it's really no one looks down on him. ”

While chatting, eating, and drinking.

Li Wu has been recalling the scene of digging the river back then, and the big scene of tens of thousands of people working together is deeply imprinted in his mind.

A few years ago, Wang Yuan actually dug the river – during the dry season, he used a shovel to load wet mud into baskets, and then carried two baskets out with a flat pole.

Not only is it tired, but a layer of skin will be wiped off the shoulder, and the clothes will not be worn at all, and the shoulders will burn as long as they touch the clothes.

Wang Yuan sandwiched a grilled fish and ate it: "Dig the river, dig the river...... Not giving a penny, just taking care of food, is equivalent to ancient servitude. It's really embarrassing to think about. ”

There will be no conscription in the next life, and if you don't give a penny, you're just going to take care of the food, and it's not easy at all, but you're tired to death, who will do it if you break this condition?? ?

Of course, Wang Yuan, they are not bad, after all, the place where the river was dug is not far from home.

In some places in the Guannai, a large number of people were also required to be conscripted when the mountains were opened, and a large number of people had to be recruited from hundreds of kilometers away, and they were walked through step by step.

Therefore, Wang Yuan sighed deeply, it is better for future generations, many things in this era are very, very bitter.

"What, what do you say? Hey, Xiaoyuan'er, you don't speak in a literate manner, I know you have a high level of education. Li Wu looked confused.

The roast chicken, pork liver and grilled fish that Li Wu bought were indeed quite good, and soon after Wang Yuanguang ate the vegetables, he was almost full.

When a few people had eaten their fill, Li Yan removed all the leftovers of lettuce, then put the cigarette basket on the kang table, and brought another pot of tea.

Li Wudong talked about it again, and then said the ultimate purpose of coming this time - asking for money!

"Xiao Yuan'er, I don't treat you as an outsider, that's why I told you about it, raising ducks is definitely profitable! Yanjing roast duck knows? How expensive a duck is......"

Li Wu wanted 3,000 yuan, of course, he didn't ask for this money in vain, and planned to convert it into shares for Wang Yuan - 40% of the shares.

Li Yan was the first to disagree, as a daughter, she knows her father best, so many years have passed, and there are not 100 kinds of livelihoods that my father has done, but all of them are all yellow.

So can you succeed in raising ducks this time?

Wang Yuan hurriedly grabbed Li Yan, and finally said directly:

"Okay! Swallow go get the money, I'm sure it will work. ”

"Oh~ That's right!"

Li Wu was still a little apprehensive in his heart, but now he also laughed, and instantly looked at Wang Yuan and felt more and more pleasing to the eye.

The vision of my old lady is really good, and I really found a good son-in-law.

"Don't worry about not making money, really, it's not necessary! You see, you're going to make money! ”

"Make money? When the time comes, you don't know if you will have enough ducks to eat. Li Yan muttered and went to another room to ask for money.

"You kid...... Why don't you trust your dad like that? Li Wu was dissatisfied, and then drank tea with Wang Yuan.

Soon Li Yan took back 3,000 yuan, Li Wu glued his fingers to the saliva and clicked twice, and after confirming that there was no problem, he didn't stay long and left on a bicycle.

When leaving, he also glanced at the motorcycle in the yard with fascination, and secretly thought that he would buy one when he made money.

The breeze was blowing, and the yellowing leaves were swirling and falling.

There is a group of little girls in the south who are jumping rubber bands, kicking shuttlecocks, and the sound of laughter and joy wafts over.

"Let's go, let's go back."

"I don't understand, let's Gaha want to give my dad money? You can still hear a sound when you are drifting, but you can't even hear a sound about this money. ”

"Because, he's your father......"

"I ......" Li Yan was only moved for a second, and then immediately said angrily: "Hurry up and get rid of the calf, so you are a good person, and I am a bad person."

"Haha, what's a good person or a bad person, is it mainly because you don't give it the first time you borrow money? That's a bit too impersonal, too picky. Wang Yuan slowly comforted Li Yan:

"Besides, our family really doesn't lack that, so it's okay to borrow it once, of course, it's just once, if you lose it this time, you won't borrow it next time, and the villagers in the tunzi won't say anything about us when they know it."

Li Yan nodded, feeling that what Wang Yuan said made sense.

But she still feels a little sorry for the money, 3,000 yuan is not a small amount, and it is far from spending so much money to marry a daughter-in-law.

Following.

Wang Yuan drove the ox cart to the city early in the morning, he found an excuse to get the refrigerator back, since he sold the refrigerator, then his family could naturally use the refrigerator first.

After driving a short distance, Wang Yuan directly tied the ox to the big tree by the river, and then he lay down by the river to bask in the sun.

When the time to pass the time was almost up, he opened his eyes and planned to go back.

"Just take the refrigerator out of the space and tie it to the ox cart, I can have one in this yard and one in my mother's yard, so I don't need to send refrigerators to the second uncle, third uncle, and grandma.

After all, it is still necessary to be reluctant now, and there are too many refrigerators to bring back coldly, which will be too conspicuous. ”

Wang Yuan tied two refrigerators to the ox cart, and just wanted to leave, suddenly the grass 5 meters away on the left was shaking violently, and then a small wild boar of about 40 catties came out.

The wild boar with brown hair is lean and lean, with a flattened head and very fierce eyes.

"the boar!"

Wang Yuan hurriedly took out the shotgun from the space, but unfortunately at this time the wild boar had already gotten into the grass, bang~ A shot was shot, and the grass leaves of the small projectile crackled, Wang Yuan hurriedly chased after it, and found that the wild boar had already run away.

"It's fast, it's not a big boar, it's not worth the delay."

Wang Yuan felt a little pity, and suddenly, a stupid big green grasshopper jumped on his body, caught the grasshopper with a palm of his hand, pulled a dog tail grass to thread the grasshopper, and then wiped the grasshopper saliva on his hand.

"I didn't catch the wild boar, but I caught your grasshopper, just to bring you back to feed the big fat cat, the cat will definitely fatter you after eating it."

Wang Yuan carried a shotgun on his back and walked outside with a dog's tail grass.

Before he could reach the side of the road, he heard several cow barks on the side of the road, and then the shouting of people.

"Who's shooting!? It almost scared our cows! ”

"Who!?"

Wang Yuan felt that the voice was a little familiar, and when he pulled open the grass and looked at it, he found that there were several ox carts parked on the side of the road, and the leader turned out to be Shen Erlei.

Shen Erlei, who is tall and strong, wears gray short sleeves and shorts, and the confident atmosphere between his eyebrows and eyes is getting more and more when he is rich.

He bent down to take a closer look, and instantly laughed: "Who did I think it was, it turned out to be you Xiaoyuan, why are you here?"

"I went to the city and got two refrigerators back, you guys are ...... What kind of rice did you ship to me? ”

"yes, doesn't your chicken farm use rice? I'll bring you a whole 5 carts, can you ask for them all? ”

"That must be possible! Let's go home and drink! ”

Wang Yuan was also very happy, through contact, he found that Shen Erlei was still relatively realistic, and he was also quite capable, buying grain, vegetables, meat, furs, etc., all of which were impressive.

This is already quite rare.

Of course, Shen Erlei really made a lot of money.

Shen Erlei sat on the ox cart driven by Wang Yuan, and then several ox carts swayed and continued to set off, the sun and shadow were mottled, and after the ox cart drove by, only a few lumps of cow dung were left on the ground.

Shen Erlei is very curious about the refrigerator:

"Can this thing get cold on the inside? Why? ”

Wang Yuan explained to him the principle of refrigeration, but Shen Erlei still felt incredible, and finally could only sigh: "It's really capable, tsk~ Is this thing made by college students?"

Although there are more than a dozen refrigerator manufacturers in the whole of Huaxia, the production capacity is limited, and Huaxia is too vast.

Not to mention rural people, a considerable number of urban people do not know the existence of refrigerators.

Shen Erlei also wanted to complete a refrigerator, but after knowing that the other one was for his father and mother's yard, he was embarrassed to speak.

Slowly and leisurely all the way home, that night Zhang Luo good wine and good food, everyone drank until more than ten o'clock at night, and finally Shen Erlei drank the lake, patted Wang Yuan's shoulder and called "big brother".

The weather was not so cold, so they left Shen Erlei to sleep in another room, and waited until they woke up the next day.

The little girl didn't study in the red class, and when school started in September, she went directly to the first grade, and the school was on the edge of the tunzi, and it was convenient to go back and forth.

However, when the schools are merged in the future, the children in the tunzi will have to go to the township for primary school, and it will be much more troublesome at that time.

In October 1988, within a few days, snowflakes began to fall in the sky, and the initial snowflakes fell on the ground and quickly melted.

However, the snow does not turn cold, and the temperature of the snow in front of it begins to drop rapidly, and the snow in the back does not melt, and in less than an hour, the sky and the earth become white.

Wang Yuan was leisurely watching TV and drinking tea at home, when Wu Qian suddenly ran to his door: "Wang Yuan, are you at home?" Wang Shuai was put back! He's about to cut you with a pig-killing knife! ”

"What??"

Wang Yuan rushed out of the house in an instant.
