Master Yu's stall is at the root of the city wall in the west of the city, when Song Yuan came to them, they saw a simple stall at a glance, the whole stall was built with a wooden frame and two pieces of oilcloth, there were two people on the stall, among which a woman in her forties was busy outside.

"Master!" Xiao Lao stepped forward to say hello, and when he saw Xiao Lao coming, the middle-aged woman who was cleaning up the dishes quickly looked up and saw that it was him, and immediately asked with a smile: "You kid is here at this point?" Isn't the store going to work right now? ”

"I've taken a leave of absence, and I'm looking for Master for something." Xiao Lao helped his wife clean up, and said while cleaning up: "By the way, my wife, the national food stamps that my eldest brother wants have been obtained, you don't have to ask for help, look, it's more than ten catties, plus the ones that are exchanged should be enough." ”

Seeing Xiao Lao take out a stack of national food stamps from his pocket, his wife was stunned for a moment and then very happy: "So many? Yesterday, I was still telling your eldest brother that the national food stamps are not easy to handle, but in the blink of an eye, I got it? What is the change? How much did you change? You say the number and my wife will give it to you. ”

"What else are you talking about?" Xiao Lao directly stuffed the national food stamps into his wife's pocket: "Isn't the eldest brother's business my business?" The family still talks about two families? Use it first! By the way, Mrs., when it comes to this national food stamp, I have to thank these people, thanks to their help. ”

As he spoke, Xiao Lao stretched out his hand to Song Yuan on the side and pointed at them, and the master noticed the four men and women who were dressed extraordinarily, and immediately stepped forward to thank them.

At this time, Song Yuanchao and the others knew that the national food stamps that Xiao Lao wanted to exchange were actually exchanged for Master Yu's family, so they knew what else to exchange for like this? Compared with Master Yu's favor back then, what are these national food stamps?

Song Yuanchao and several people hurriedly stepped forward to greet his wife, and at this time, Xiao Lao told his wife that these people not only helped solve the problem of food stamps across the country, but also knew the master. I went to the hotel just now to inquire about Master's coming, which is really a coincidence, so Xiao Lao specially asked for a leave to take them to see Master.

Hearing these men who knew her, the master and wife became even more enthusiastic, beckoning Song Yuan to sit with them, and asked them if they had eaten? Zhang Luo wanted to get some food or something.

Song Yuanchao hurriedly said that they didn't have to be busy, they had already eaten in the restaurant just now. Xiao Lao left first after bringing people, he was temporarily on leave and had to go back immediately, and the hotel was not good for a long time.

At this time, Master Yu walked out from behind, saw his wife and four young people talking, and immediately stepped forward and asked with a smile what he wanted to eat.

"Hello, Master Yu."

Song Yuan got up towards them and greeted Master Yu: "I haven't seen you for many years, I went to the store to look for you, who wants you to be here, all these years have passed?" ”

"It's still done, how many of you are ......?" Master Yu subconsciously replied, he has worked in a state-run hotel for many years, and there are many people he has dealt with, looking at Song Yuanchao, he feels a little familiar, but as for the other two beautiful women, he must not have seen them, and Qin Zhengguo He directly ignored it, Qin Zhengguo has gained a lot of weight over the years, where can he still recognize his original appearance?

"Master Yu, do you remember one winter, two young people came to the store to ask for food, and you took them to the back alley, gave them wotou and noodle soup, and stuffed a bag of stick noodles when they were over?" Master Yu looks a lot older, with a lot of wind and frost on his face, seeing this good man end up like this, but losing his job in order to help others, Qin Zhengguo is really uncomfortable.

Qin Zhengguo said to Master Yu, gesturing with the original scene in his hand.

Master Yu was stunned for a moment, looked at Qin Zhengguo carefully, and then looked at Song Yuanchao on the side, and suddenly laughed: "I remembered, I remembered...... You two are the young people of the year, right? After all these years, it's not the same as before, and I really wouldn't recognize it if I didn't mention it. ”

"Yes, yes, that's us!" Qin Zhengguo nodded again and again, pointed at Song Yuanchao and said: "It was the two of us back then, thanks to your help, I didn't starve to death, it's been so many years, come back this time to see, who wants you to ...... now." ”

"Huh." Master Yu smiled, as if he didn't want to say anything more about his own affairs, took out a cigarette from his pocket and handed it to Song Yuanchao.

Master Yu smokes naturally not a good cigarette, it is the cheapest local sheep brand, this kind of cigarette is about the same as the big economy, an egg can be exchanged for a box, Song Yuanchao and Qin Zhengguo also smoked, and at that time this kind of cigarette was not often smoked, because when there was no money and poverty, even the sheep could not afford to smoke, so they could only make do with some leaves.

Let's try it soon, everyone. 】

thanked him, took the cigarette and lit it, and took a spicy spicy spicy breath straight to his head, but at the same time, the past in his mind also poured into his heart, as if he had returned to the time of the year.

Lin Yan and Ying Caixia also stepped forward to see Master Yu and Mrs. Yu and thanked them. Although they weren't there back then, the little food that Master Yu gave them was life-saving food for the four of them to survive that winter! To put it mildly, if it weren't for Master Yu's help, the four of them might have starved to death that year, where would they be today?

It's getting dark, and the business here is not good, and there are no people now.

Song Yuanchao and Qin Zhengguo were talking to Master Yu, and Lin Yan and Ying Caixia went to help Mrs. Yu pack up her things and prepare to close the stall.

Mrs. Yu hurriedly said no, no, but where are Lin Yan and the others willing? They could only let their help and quickly cleaned up.

Sitting and smoking, chatting about the past, and talking about the emotion, Song Yuanchao and Qin Zhengguo couldn't help but shed tears.

Master Yu was also extremely emotional, he never thought that the kindness of the year would meet a few educated youths who came to him today, it seems that this good person still has a good reward, looking at what Song Yuanchao is wearing now, they should have a good life, but it's normal to think about it, the educated youth, they are all educated, and they are different from the old man who only knows how to be a cook.

As he spoke, he talked about Master Yu's departure from the state-run hotel, Qin Zhengguo was very angry and upset for Master Yu, but Master Yu was very angry, he told Qin Zhengguo that this matter had long passed, and besides, he did violate the regulations, so it was no wonder that he was the leader.

And now that Xiao Lao has entered the state-run hotel to work, it is also the compensation given to him by the unit, so there is no need to mention this matter again.

"Master Yu, ...... of your stall?"

"Hehe, it's okay, it's no problem to support yourself, and besides, the policy has been getting better and better in recent years, and the life of our people is getting better and better." Master Yu said with a smile.

Looking at Master Yu's smile, Song Yuanchao was extremely emotional in his heart, this is the most simple Chinese! There are many people like Master Yu, who have worked hard all their lives and helped others all their lives, although the pressure of life has made them stumble, but they have always had expectations and optimism for a better life in their hearts.

After the stall was closed, Master Yu invited them to sit at home.

Song Yuanchao helped Master Yu and Mrs. Yu pull things to the house but did not go in to be guests, saying that it was too late today, they were just passing by this time, and they would definitely come to the house next time they had the opportunity.

Seeing that Song Yuanchao was still carrying luggage, Master Yu didn't insist, sent Song Yuanchao and them away, and when Song Yuanchao walked out of the distance, he looked back and saw Master Yu standing at the entrance of the alley and waving to them.

Early the next morning, Master Yu and Mrs. Yu went out of the stall as usual, pulled the guys to the stall, and began to open up.

Just halfway through Zhangluo, Mrs. Yu shouted in surprise, and when she heard the voice, Master Yu hurriedly asked what's wrong? I saw Mrs. Yu take out a thick envelope from under the frame containing pots and pans.

"Where did this come from?" Master Yu asked.

"I don't know, I'll find something out of it."

"Open it and see what's inside."

Mrs. Yu was shocked when she opened the envelope, which contained two thick stacks of banknotes, which amounted to 2,000 yuan. And in addition to the banknotes, there are dozens of catties of national food stamps, and there is also a handwritten note.

After reading the note, Master Yu and Mrs. Yu understood what was going on with the money and food stamps, and it turned out that Song Yuan had secretly stuffed them into it yesterday.

The note said that the money and food stamps were to thank Master Yu for his help back then, although this was far from enough for Master Yu's help to them, but because they were in a hurry and did not make any preparations, they could only express their gratitude in this way.

In addition, there is a line written on the note, which is a suggestion for Master Yu. After all, the small county town is too small, and it is not a long-term thing to work here, Song Yuanchao suggested that Master Yu go to Chang'an to set up a stall, and it would be better if he could set up a storefront.

Master Yu has good craftsmanship, Chang'an is a big city, and it will be much better than his hometown when he arrives there, and they learned from Xiaolao that Master Yu's family wants national food stamps, so they also left some food stamps for them, hoping to help Master Yu's family.

After reading the note, Master Yu and Mrs. Yu looked at each other and didn't say anything for a long time.

When he came back to his senses, Master Yu hurriedly stuffed the envelope into his pocket and ran out in a hurry. But after going out for half an hour, he came back again, shook his head at Mrs. Yu, and said that he was late, and the guest house told him that Song Yuanchao and they checked out and left a few early mornings.

"What then? You can't take this money! What's the deal with all this money? Mrs. Yu said anxiously.

Master Yu also thought the same way, at the beginning, he was just a gesture and kindly helped Song Yuanchao them. Anyone who has the ability to do such a thing will do it, let alone someone like Master Yu.

But now Song Yuanchao actually gave them so much money and so many national food stamps, which really made Master Yu and Mrs. Yu stunned, what would it be if they took this money? The original help was not for today's return, and Master Yu was very uneasy.

But now that Song Yuanchao is gone, he didn't leave any contact information, and he can't find anyone to return these things to others, which makes Master Yu not know what to do.

The two couldn't help but discuss, but after discussing for a long time, there was no good way, so they could only put away the money and food stamps for the time being.

That night, Master Yu and Mrs. Yu didn't sleep well all night, looking at this huge amount of money and not knowing what to do, at the same time, Song Yuanchao's suggestion to let Master Yu go to Chang'an to open a shop in the note gave Master Yu great temptation.

Of course, Master Yu knows that Chang'an is a big city, and the population and consumption power are far from being comparable to their small county, and if he can open a shop in Chang'an with his own craftsmanship, he will definitely have a good business.

It's just that it was impossible to take this step due to the conditions before, and Chang'an couldn't do it with a store and other expenses, and Master Yu's stall barely earned dozens of dollars a month, and he couldn't get this store without eating or drinking for a year.

But now with the money left by Song Yuanchao, Master Yu can not only easily buy a store in Chang'an, but also take over the whole family to settle down. Thinking of this, even Master Yu, who doesn't care much about money on weekdays, couldn't help but be moved, he lit a cigarette and smoked it one by one, and didn't sleep much all night, until the sky was bright, Master Yu finally made a decision.
