Chapter 105, the naïve Lou Xiao'e (make up for the arrears)

On this day, Zhou Shuqing, who went home in the afternoon, found that it was very cool at home.

Especially when passing through the vegetable cellar, it is cooler.

There is no doubt that there is ice in the ice cellar.

In the living room of the middle hall, the little goldfish has a small mouth and a face full of grievances.

Facing the wall, stand still.

This is a penalty station, Zhou Shuqing couldn't help laughing, I guess she did something bad again, right?

I saw her eldest brother sitting with a serious face, flipping through the book while looking at the little goldfish from time to time.

If the little goldfish is lazy or has other small movements, her eldest brother will immediately cough, and she will be so frightened that she hurriedly and seriously punishes her to stand up.

"Big brother, what's wrong with the fifth?"

Zhou Shuqing, who put down her schoolbag, looked at the little goldfish with interest, and the latter snorted and seemed to say: What to see?

"Xiaoqing, you help me teach her a lesson, she actually dares to hide in the ice cellar to sleep? It's really daunting. ”

Zhou Jimin was also helpless.

Originally, it was a good thing to get an ice cellar, and the doors and other things were all open and unlocked.

Today the weather was exceptionally sunny and temperatures soared.

The little goldfish is good, but I think it's hot at home, so I went directly to the ice cellar to play.

I didn't know what was going on, so I ran back to my house and went to the ice cellar with the quilt to sleep.

If it weren't for Wangcai also accompanying him, after he couldn't stand it, he called Su Ruyun, but he was afraid that the consequences would be unpredictable.

Such a dangerous thing can be done by a little goldfish.

As soon as she heard this, Zhou Shuqing's eyes suddenly turned red, and she was about to spank her when she pulled the little goldfish.

Although in this family, Zhou Jimin is the eldest brother at this time, she is also the second sister.

When her parents are gone, the eldest brother has always been supporting her at home, and as the second child, she wants to help more eldest brothers.

After all, the eldest brother is only sixteen years old, she is only fourteen years old, and the little goldfish is only five years old.

She was still young and couldn't work to make money, so she thought about disciplining the third and the three of them.

Forget about the little temper and coquettish before, Zhou Shuqing can't bear what the little goldfish did today.

So, the little goldfish was miserable.

Zhou Jimin was reluctant to hit her, it was because he really hurt her, so he was punished.

But Zhou Shuqing is different, she is the second sister, she picks up the bamboo strip and beats it, as for the little goldfish crying dad and calling her mother, she didn't hear it.

As she played, she burst into tears herself.

When the third and fourth came back to see this scene, they stood side by side on the wall of the living room door, standing very straight.

The angry second sister is terrible.

Su Ruyun on the side was a little unbearable, wanted to persuade a few words, opened her mouth, and finally sighed.

In the end, she has no position to persuade.

And, to be honest, she didn't do her duty of care.

It's just that Zhou Jimin didn't say it.

In the master bedroom, Ding Qiunan came out with Zhou Qingxian in his arms and didn't speak.

But seeing Zhou Shuqing fighting for so long, she couldn't help but speak.

was stopped by Zhou Jimin, "Let her fight, if the little goldfish doesn't teach a lesson, she won't remember the lesson this time." ”

A roll of eyes was thrown away, and Ding Qiunan complained: "You big brother sings so well with a red face." ”

Others couldn't understand it, but she did.

Zhou Jimin just didn't want to beat the little goldfish by himself, so he was probably reluctant.

But Zhou Shuqing and the third child are qualified to beat, and even her sister-in-law is also qualified.

It's just that he didn't let Ding Qiunan do it, and it just so happened that Zhou Shuqing came back first.

So, this white-faced role, Zhou Shuqing is the one who does not give in.

Now it seems that it worked well.

not only made the little goldfish have a long memory, but also shocked the third and fourth children.

"Alright, Xiaoqing, it's almost enough."

Seeing that the little goldfish couldn't cry anymore, Zhou Jimin finally spoke.

"It's medicine, take it and wipe it."

Zhou Shuqing nodded, took the medicine, and said to the little goldfish, "Can you still walk?" ”

The latter was aggrieved and wanted to stand up, but almost didn't fall.

It can be seen that this time, her second sister is ruthless.

After the two sisters left, Zhou Jimin called the third and fourth children over again, and told them that they were not allowed to stay in the ice cellar if they were fine, and if necessary, they would come out with the ice cubes.

He put a lot of ice in the ice cellar, all of which were large ice cubes from the warehouse space.

In the ice cellar, he used a cleaned wooden barrel to place some small pieces of edible ice in the wooden barrel for easy access.

There is also meat that needs to be frozen, and put it directly in the ice cube refrigerator.

Anyway, the ice cellar is a world of ice and snow, and it doesn't matter if you come once in a while, but you definitely can't stay for long.

Even if you enter the ice cellar, you need to wear winter clothes, and there are several military coats hanging at the door of the ice cellar.

With the example of the little goldfish, the third and fourth are already in mind.

The weather was hot, and everyone ate less for dinner.

In fact, in the past six months, the living conditions of the family have skyrocketed.

Especially after moving to South Scissors Lane, I have a single family and am not afraid of my neighbors.

Eat better.

If it were this time last year, I would definitely be able to drink a good meal in front of a table.

"I'm going to get some mung bean paste, appetizer."

Zhou Jimin stood up and said, others can not eat much, but Ding Qiunan cannot.

She's not one person now, she's two people.

In addition to her, Ding Xiaochuan's daughter-in-law Fang Xiaochun also has it.

This matter was still the day after Ding Qiunan was confirmed to be pregnant, Su Ruyun took Fang Xiaochun to the hospital for a check-up, only to know that it was already there.

It's just that Fang Xiaochun is not here.

Before he could reach the kitchen, Ding Rushan came from the door, holding a telegram in his hand.

When they saw him from afar, they shouted:

"Jimin, good news, Xiaochuan has sent a telegram saying that he has joined the desert project, haha."

"Really?"

Zhou Jimin was also very happy when he heard this.

As long as you join this project and polish it seriously for a few years, whether you are discharged from the army or continue to stay in the army, it is much better than being an apprentice.

After all, apprenticeship can only be turned into a regular after three years.

And if you mix well in the army, change jobs and come back, and then make meritorious contributions or something, it is not a big problem to be the captain of the factory security department.

Everyone in the living room also walked out in surprise.

For a while, everyone became happy by the news brought by Ding Rushan.

After being lively for a while, Zhou Jimin brought out a lot of mung bean paste, and waited for everyone to drink it.

prepared a wooden box for the old man and asked him to take it back to Fang Xiaochun and Ding Qiuhong.

"No, they can't get used to this."

The old man didn't want to take advantage of him, because he had already taken advantage of a lot.

Every time he picked up Su Ruyun, Zhou Jimin would ask him to bring something.

It made him embarrassed.

"Dad, the child in Xiaochun's belly needs nutrition, drink less, it's okay."

It is necessary to relieve the heat in summer, how can some people not drink mung bean paste and are not used to it?

After two days, after he got the ingredients, he made some sour plum soup and chilled it again, which made it more comfortable this summer.

When Ding Rushan heard this, he was speechless in an instant:

Qiu Nan married a good man!

Time is like flowing water, and before you know it, half of June has passed.

It's been nearly a month since I came back from the Northeast.

Zhou Jimin is becoming less and less interested in work.

Lao Yang and Section Chief Jiang couldn't do anything about him.

It's no problem to find him for big things, but if you look for him for small things, you will be scolded by him.

Even with Lao Liang, he didn't dare to come to him recently.

But also, Zhou Jimin is about to take the college entrance examination.

Others don't know about this, will Lao Liang not know?

At noon that day, the broadcast, which had not moved for a long time, suddenly played a reward announcement.

It's good news from the car company.

He Yuzhu didn't understand very well, as if it was a self-developed car?

Anyway, I don't know how to feel it, it's very hanging.

And this time the reward is 3,000 yuan in cash and a bus ticket.

Not to mention the latter, the reward of 3,000 yuan alone made He Yuzhu completely confused.

It used to be a reward of three hundred or five hundred, but now it has soared to three thousand?

Qin Huairu, who came to eat, also heard the broadcast.

Shocked to the spot!

She is the job that replaces Jia Dongxu, and now she is just an apprentice with a monthly salary of 18 yuan.

At this level of salary, she would have to work for 167 months, or almost 14 years, to earn 3,000 yuan.

It's horrible!

What's even more terrifying is that when she came back to her senses, she heard the chatter of other workers around her, which suddenly made her breathless.

Because there is one more sentence in the content of the radio, that is, Zhou Jimin actually donated 2,000 yuan to the country for national defense construction.

2,000 yuan, all donated to her, how nice would it be?

Xu Damao, who was chatting with a widow, also took a bite of the big steamed bun at this time.

That Zhou Jimin is really rich, two thousand yuan, and he will donate it when he says he will donate.

It's just a sixteen-year-old boy, but he has become a young genius, which is amazing.

It would be nice when I could have so much money myself.

Yi Zhonghai, Liu Haizhong, Liu Guangfu and other courtyard workers were all shocked by today's noon broadcast.

It's a pity that Zhou Jimin doesn't live in the courtyard anymore, otherwise, Gao Gao would have asked him to donate some money tonight.

That is, Zhou Jimin doesn't know this, if he knew, he would probably spit on them.

Donate a ball!

He had received the rewards from Lu Jiyi and them yesterday, and this was the first time he felt how burning these rewards were.

Therefore, he donated 2,000 yuan as soon as possible.

He doesn't need to do this personally, Xu Mei, the chief of the financial section, knows these things better.

It's just that Lu Jiyi and the others expressed confusion about his such generous actions.

Lao Yang guessed something somewhat, but he didn't understand it very well.

After all, it is a new society now, and if there are really people who can't see Zhou Jimin get so many rewards, their eyes will be red, but what can they do?

Just like the Peking Opera master Lao Mei, the monthly salary at this time is 2,100 yuan, which is the country's emphasis on special talents.

You must know that Lao Mei was in the Republic of China era, and the appearance fee was 10 gold bars.

To be honest, 2100 yuan is really not much for Lao Mei.

Ran Gee, Lao Mei also donated most of this money to the country.

Zhou Jimin also has the heart to support national defense, and at the same time, donating money is also donating trouble.

Although he doesn't live in Nanluoguxiang, he still works in the rolling mill.

And Zhou Shuqing will also come back to work in the rolling mill in the future, so if she can not touch the sensitive nerves of these workers, try not to touch it.

Don't be at that time, several of them in the family go to work to get paid, and Zhou Jimin often gets rewards, so others can't be jealous?

The news about the rewards and donations went on for several days, and the heat slowly subsided, and I was soon attracted to something new.

As we get closer to the end of June, the rolling mill's work plan for the first half of the year is almost complete.

Several major products such as distribution boxes, brake pads, and lighters have gradually become important output products of rolling mills.

Even, in terms of importance, far more than the output of steel products.

After the operation of these workshops tends to be stable and upward, the restructuring of the rolling mill is imminent.

Once the system is restructured, whether Director Yang will be promoted or continue to work steadily has become the focus of many people's attention.

Deputy Director Zhao, Deputy Director Li and others are all competing for each other.

What is going on at the top, Zhou Jimin is very clear from time to time.

Quite a few people wanted to come to him, but he hid straight home.

Even if he was blocked in the factory, Zhou Jimin said not to bother him, otherwise the labor and management would resign.

The higher-ups were all speechless and instantly defeated.

At the end of June, the capital is completely surrounded by midsummer, even if the courtyard is shady, but it is still not as cool as sitting in the vegetable cellar.

The vegetable patch in the courtyard was also a little wilted by the scorching sun.

"Nan Nan, you sit down first, I'm going to turn over this vegetable field today and plant some other vegetables."

On this day, Zhou Jimin and Ding Qiunan had just come back, and when they looked at the somewhat messy vegetable patch, they wanted to clean it up.

It's messy, and it's an eyesore to watch.

"Can't you just take a break?"

Ding Qiunan felt sorry for his man, and when he saw that he didn't listen to persuasion, he wanted to help him, but he didn't expect him to be unhappy, so she asked her not to be busy.

"If you have time, go for a walk and enjoy them, take a walk in the courtyard, and exercise, which is better than doing this."

"Isn't work just exercise?"

Seeing that she was just helping to pick up some old gangsters, Zhou Jimin didn't say anything more.

The little goldfish, who was tired of playing in the afternoon, woke up now and came out rubbing his eyes.

"Big brother, I'm here to help too."

"Don't hurt yourself, be careful."

"Okay, big brother."

There are different types of farm tools in the corner, all of which were modified by Zhou Jimin.

It is so that the four little ones can also do it when they are free.

At the door of the kitchen, the mother-in-law, who was choosing vegetables, asked him with a smile:

"Jimin, in more than ten days, you will take the college entrance examination, don't you read the book?"

"I'm reviewing every day, don't worry, Mom, I'm sure I'm very confident."

From 52 to now, there have been seven years of college entrance examination questions that can be consulted, not to mention, Zhou Jimin is still hanging, so he is not worried at all.

"Besides, it's not good to read books every day, you have to combine work and rest to improve learning efficiency."

Chatting about this, Zhou Jimin looked at the little goldfish again and asked about her homework.

This year's five-year-old little goldfish, waiting for next year, Zhou Jimin will send her to school.

Others may worry that their children are not old enough and their brains are not keeping up with their peers.

But Zhou Jimin is not worried about the little goldfish.

She is well nourished, plus she has four older siblings to help her, and she can go to school at the age of six.

Since she was beaten by her second sister last time, the little goldfish has been well-behaved recently.

So, homework is well done.

The crisp sound of reading sounded in the courtyard and spread far away.

On the first day of July, in the early hours of the morning.

It was dark, and there was still about half an hour before dawn.

According to the agreement with Zidane, Zhou Jimin came to the former's house again.

Entering through the door, there were many people waiting inside.

He frowned, but didn't say anything.

"Hello comrade, we have everything you want, please come in."

The one in the center, looking at the old man who was still quite imposing, said nervously.

In this era, food is scarce, and it is difficult to get food.

So, the characters who were very awesome in the past have now fallen into the dust.

I have to bow down and be small, after all, life is important.

At the beginning of June, the winter wheat was harvested, and who knew that the result would be even worse.

The supply and marketing cooperatives are still limited in grain, and there is no food in the pigeon market.

Such a situation suddenly made the old and young people completely panic.

When ordinary families encounter famine, they still know to eat less, starve a few meals, and endure it over.

But these old and young people can't do it, their limbs are lying down, and if they are hungry again, they are afraid that they will kick their legs and go.

When Guan Wenhong was actively running to find food, he suddenly heard from the circle of the old and the young that there was food on Zidane's side.

As a result, many people in the circle came to Qijia.

When they heard that the seller asked to trade fine antiques, everyone was silent for a while, but immediately agreed.

My life is almost gone, what are you doing guarding those things?

Previously, not long after Zhou Jimin came back from the Northeast, after meeting Zidane in the pigeon market, the two made an appointment to trade grain.

But when Zhou Jimin saw those tattered antiques, his whole face turned pale.

The room was full of antiques, and there was no one in the space that vibrated the space.

It's not that these antiques are all fake, it's true, yes, but it's not a boutique.

That's why we have today's agreement.

Walking into the room, Zhou Jimin found that there were not many antiques this time.

But each one of them looks like a very precious antique, and it's nice to look at.

There are several of them, and from a long distance, Zhou Jimin feels the desire to devour space.

Quietly, he came to the field and sat down first, chatting a few words before starting to get to the point.

Zhou Jimin did not pretend, but directly selected the antiques he needed, and determined the price with them.

It's a rare antique, yes, but it's also cheap.

They can not trade, but the right to speak is Zhou Jimin.

The few people who were selected as antiques were very happy, although the price was very low, and even made them feel painful, but if they could exchange it for food, they could still be traded.

It's just that Guan Wenhong suddenly opened his mouth and said that he wanted to modify the trading rules.

Zidane's face instantly became ugly, he couldn't wait to give Zhou Jimin up, Guan Wenhong is good, at the critical moment, he actually wants to make trouble?

Several other people also looked at Guan Wenhong with unkind faces.

Zhou Jimin, who has always felt smooth and smooth, smiled when he heard this.

"Oh, how are you going to change that?"

"I don't quite approve of the transaction of money before goods, I think it is best to clear both money and goods."

Zhou Jimin nodded, and he could see that Guan Wenhong was a broken jar, and it was estimated that he was not among the antiques he had just selected.

That's why there is such a move to flip the table.

glanced at Guan Wenhong deeply, and Zhou Jimin looked at the others again:

"How many of you?"

The others shook their heads again and again, in front of the grain, the trading rules are an egg? What's more, Zidane has already completed two transactions with the other party and has a good reputation, so there is no need to hate the other party at this juncture.

Besides, even if the other party really serves the pot, it will only be a loss of antiques and distress for a while.

But if it really happens, with food, what are they afraid of?

"Old Qi, what do you say?"

"Comrade, you can do what you say, I have no opinion."

How could Zidane possibly have an opinion?

He's just a middleman, not even an intermediary.

It's a thankless job to do this.

If it weren't for the relationship between the ancestors and these people, he wouldn't have bothered to take care of it.

If he is evil to Zhou Jimin, it will not benefit him at all, so he has no opinion, it all depends on how the former is handled.

"Is one of the antiques I just picked yours?"

Guan Wenhong shook his head, and Zhou Jimin was immediately happy, "Then why do you want to change the rules?" ”

"I'm just reminding them, don't run out of water when the bamboo basket comes to fruition."

There is nothing peculiar about this sentence, but the strange thing is that Zidane's face instantly became extremely ugly.

What's the situation?

Zhou Jimin was curious.

But Zidane didn't say anything, and Zhou Jimin couldn't say anything.

For a moment, the atmosphere in the room almost dropped to freezing.

It's a strange situation, Zidane looked at Zhou Jimin pleadingly, and Guan Wenhong was an old god, as if he really had something to rely on.

And Zhou Jimin didn't care about this, stood up directly, and said:

"In this case, the transaction is canceled, Lao Qi, the mountain is high and the road is long, and there will be no date in the future."

As soon as these words came out, Zidane's face changed instantly, and he hurriedly grabbed Zhou Jimin, who was about to leave the room, and begged the latter to wait and let them discuss it first.

Guan Wenhong's face was light, but he chuckled in his heart:

Is this person really unwilling to change the rules?

The reason for this requirement is that the transaction volume is large, and you are not afraid of 10,000 in case, after all, rare antiques are rare.

They don't have many such treasures.

It's all left over from the ancestors, and if you lose it, alas, it's broken.

The second is to test Zhou Jimin, if the rules can be changed, then what is the next step?

If they had access to such food, they wouldn't have to worry about going hungry.

He believes that Zhou Jimin is just a middleman.

The third is that the old and the young are a circle, but this circle is almost dispersed.

There are really not many of them still in the country.

And those who go overseas are not pure Chinese.

That's why I just made a proposal.

A group of people moved to the secret room next door and chatted.

Only Zidane is still accompanying Zhou Jimin, in fact, he is afraid that the latter will run away.

didn't wait long, Zhou Jimin became impatient and planned to leave first.

After all, the sky outside was already white, and he didn't want to stay any longer and waste his time.

Zidane was suddenly anxious, and hurriedly appeased Zhou Jimin first, asking the latter to wait a little longer, while he himself ran to the secret room next door.

said that in the secret room at the moment, the noise was fierce.

It is almost divided into two factions, and it is clearly distinguished.

There are also two people who just hold their arms like this, and they don't care about themselves.

"Don't quarrel with so many of you, everyone is leaving, no trade."

As soon as Zidane came in, he frightened them all.

Then, the quarrel escalated.

So angry that Zidane wanted to vomit blood.

But Zhou Jimin, who was outside, sighed and turned to leave.

After leaving Zidane's house, Zhou Jimin went to the nearby pigeon market.

After a circle, he left.

It didn't take long for a cart of coarse grains to come in.

Now the price of coarse grains has dropped slightly, 0.25 yuan per catty, and this price has not dropped much.

The reason for the price reduction is not because there is grain in the market, but because there are fewer people who buy it.

Everyone knows that food is expensive, so you can only go hungry for a few meals.

The wild vegetables outside the city have long been looted.

It's because everyone has no money to buy food, so they can only eat wild vegetables.

As soon as the grain arrived in Pigeon City, Zhou Jimin was surrounded.

There are a lot of people, but those who are willing to buy, no.

At this moment, Zhou Jimin knew that the famine was really terrifying.

But he understands even more that he can't give food for free just because he has a good heart.

Sale?

It is estimated that even if it is reduced to the previous level, these people will not be able to afford it.

After a while, someone finally bought it.

After opening up the situation, it is much better.

When the coarse grains were sold, he took a watermelon out of the basket.

Eating watermelon in summer to relieve the heat is not too much, right?

In the pigeon market, it's excessive!

By this time, it was already dark outside, and pedestrians began to fill the streets.

The cleaners have already done half of the cleaning, and the manure pickers are getting busy.

Many people stared at the watermelon in Zhou Jimin's hand and swallowed their saliva.

It didn't take long for the watermelon to be half dried by Zhou Jimin.

After eating the watermelon rind was thrown aside, several children who had been guarding it for a long time rushed over and snatched the watermelon rind away.

The child who didn't grab the patch immediately burst into tears.

But no one paid attention to him, and the other children gobbled up, and ate the watermelon cleanly after dividing it by two, and there was really only the skin left!

Zhou Jimin looked at this scene indifferently, if he dared to find out with his conscience, reality would immediately teach him how to behave.

When he was in the pigeon city in the northeast, he did such a stupid thing once.

At that time, he was directly surrounded by dozens or hundreds of people.

If it weren't for his strong body and unmatched strength, I'm afraid he would have been injured.

From then on, he never dared to mess around again.

Retrieving his memory, he was about to leave when he was stopped.

"Hello comrade, can you sell me the leftover half of the watermelon you just ate?"

The people who came were a father and daughter, and their clothes were out of place with their surroundings.

Because this is the father and daughter of the Lou family, the girl is Lou Xiao'e, Xu Damao's future wife.

This is the second time Zhou Jimin has seen the Lou family's father and daughter.

The last time I met it was when I was selling big white pears at another pigeon market.

"Oh, this is the watermelon I left for my daughter-in-law, don't sell it!"

He was not interested in the Lou family's money.

But for Lou Xiao'e, there is a little bit of interest.

Of course, it's not that she wants to have a relationship with the other party, but from the perspective of a bystander, she feels that she shouldn't be treated like Xu Damao, He Yuzhu and Qin Huairu, that's all.

As for craving her body?

Aren't Xu Mei and Li Yuzhu prettier and better looking than Lou Xiao'e?

Even Qin Jingru is very good!

Of course, unlike in film and television dramas, Lou Xiao'e at this time is still very innocent, with a cute and cute baby fat, all of which are collagen.

Lou Jizhong's face was stunned, he didn't expect to be rejected, didn't the other party see the clothes he was wearing?

"So, can you tell me where you bought this melon?"

"Can't!"

“…………”

Lou Xiao'e next to her couldn't help it, and said, "We are willing to buy it at a high price, you can sell it to us, is it okay?" And you have cut this melon in half, and it is not fresh after a long time. ”

If it weren't for the drought this year, there wouldn't be many watermelons, and even if there were, there wouldn't be much left to ship to the capital.

In addition, there are no excellent varieties of watermelons yet.

After a few years, the talents of Agricultural University will go to the northwest and eat sweet and refreshing watermelons after more than ten years of research and development.

Therefore, the watermelons that can be seen on the market are not as good as the seedless watermelons in Zhou Jimin's hands, they are bright red and juicy, and they are very attractive to look at.

Looking at the greedy Lou Xiao'e, the corners of Zhou Jimin's mouth rose slightly:

"How much can you get?" It's too high, I don't sell it. ”

"Of course, it's the price you're happy with...... Wait a minute, it's too high you don't sell? ”

As soon as she finished speaking, Lou Xiao'e came back to her senses.

The people around laughed happily, but Lou Jizhong chuckled, shouldn't he have taken a fancy to his daughter?

That's not going to work!

His daughter can't marry such a person, she's too shrewd, and it's not ordinary people who can come to the pigeon market to sell grain.

The current Lou family should live a low-key life.

If you put it in the past, do you need him Lou Jizhong to come out to buy food?

Alas, this world is difficult!

glanced at Lou Jizhong, who was full of vigilance. Zhou Jimin said with a smile:

"yes, you heard it right, so it can't be too high."

"No, I buy things, you sell things, you still dislike it...."

The simple Lou Xiao'e feels very incredible, and she has to be clear about the level and level.

Lou Xiao'e, who didn't realize that she was being tricked, still wanted to continue to quibble, well, to persuade Zhou Jimin to accept her high price.

Her father had already grabbed her, "Two dollars, I bought it." ”

So much money?

When the people next to him heard this, they were all dumbfounded, very incredible.

Half a watermelon, two or three catties at most.

Close to a dollar a pound?

Even in winter, it shouldn't be so expensive, right?

Many people's eyes are rolling, wondering where to get watermelon and sell this?

However, the hair on my head was bald, and I couldn't think of any melon fields.

"Not for sale!"

Zhou Jimin didn't even look at Lou Jizhong, just stared at Lou Xiao'e.

The latter is really like a film and television drama, simple and pitiful, very kind.

It's just a pity.

Lou Jizhong snorted coldly, took out two yuan, gave it to his daughter, and motioned for her to buy it.

Sure enough, if Lou Xiao'e bought it, it was sold.

After his conjecture was confirmed, Lou Jizhong took over the habit, pulled his daughter and left in a hurry.

He had to keep his daughter away from Zhou Jimin.

Poor Lou Xiao'e, who was pulled by her father, turned back to Zhou Jimin and said that she would come to him to buy something next time.

This sentence made Lou Jizhong even more angry.

Then, when he turned around, he saw Zhou Jimin unhurriedly taking out two large watermelons.

It's round and beautiful.

Mouth-watering.

"Dad, he still has big watermelons, let's go buy two more and take them home for my mother and brother."

Ay!

Lou Jizhong, who was helpless, had no choice but to return again.

Looking at Zhou Jimin, he asked, "You obviously have a whole uncut watermelon, why don't you sell it to us?" Instead of selling cut watermelons? You're sincere, right? ”

Hearing her father say this, Lou Xiao'e also stared at her waist angrily.

Zhou Jimin said slowly:

"If I'm not mistaken, it was you who asked me as soon as you came up, do you want to sell my other half of the watermelon? I also said that I wouldn't sell it, you have to buy it, right? I didn't expect you to be quite good at raking. ”

In a word, the father and daughter of the Lou family were speechless with shame.

Leaving from Pigeon City, Zhou Jimin hugged two large watermelons, faced the rising sun, and went home leisurely.

Thinking of the two big watermelons he gave away for nothing, the stunned expressions of the Lou family's father and daughter, his mood was inexplicably much happier.

For him, watermelons are not worth much.

For the Lou family, a few dollars is not expensive.

But if Lou Jizhong can be cranky and Lou Xiao'e can be stunned, Zhou Jimin thinks it's quite interesting.

Isn't that more refreshing than spending a dime on a paddling movie?

When he got home, Ding Qiunan saw that he was in a beautiful mood, and couldn't help laughing:

"Did you go out and pick up the money? So happy? ”

When the little goldfish heard this, he hurriedly asked where it was?

"Well, I bought two watermelons today, in the basket, and I'll get a chilled watermelon later, aren't you happy?"

It took a while to pull out two large round watermelons from the straw.

Looking at the tempting watermelon, the little goldfish didn't care about picking up money.

was about to hug the big watermelon, but was stopped by Zhou Jimin.

If you don't have a lot of strength, don't do this job.

It's okay to break the watermelon if you have short legs, but what if you hurt it?

A watermelon weighs six or seven pounds, and the little goldfish can't be moved, but it's just that they are afraid of falling.

The third and fourth children had a lot of strength, and one of them carried a watermelon to the kitchen.

"Big brother, let's go get ice."

No matter who goes to the ice cellar in the family, if you can say it, try to say it.

Because it's too cold inside the ice cellar, if you don't come out for a long time, it's easy to have an accident.

Although the ice cellar has no door, there are also three quilt curtains to keep the heat out.

"Go, go and get back." Zhou Jimin waved his hand, but the little goldfish wanted to go, but she was already frightened, and she was also banned from going to the ice cellar.

Today is the time to rest, and before breakfast arrived, Ding Rushan sent his mother-in-law and her mother over.

"Hey, where did the watermelon come from? It's huge. ”

When the old man saw the watermelon soaked in the ice water, he couldn't move his legs.

Every day when he came to his son-in-law's house, he didn't want to leave.

It's either chilled plum soup, mung bean paste, and now watermelon.

God, he had to sigh again that his daughter was really married to the right person.

"Jimin brought it back from Pigeon City in the morning, Xiaochun, sister come and have breakfast together."

Ding Qiunan explained, and immediately beckoned to let his sister-in-law and sister come over.

In the past, she always called Ah Hong.

Now I'm calling my sister.,I don't know if it's a separation or something.。

The old man still took two meat buns and fritters and left.

Zhou Shuqing also wanted to stuff him with more breakfast, but it was too late, because Ding Rushan ran too fast.

After the family had breakfast, Ding Qiunan came out of the thatched house, sweating profusely, and Zhou Jimin was annoyed.

Why didn't you even think about solving this problem?

Bathroom!

He thought of squatting pits, and he also asked Wu Weihai and them to dig sewers and septic tanks.

But I never thought that in the summer, once the toilet did not go well, not only would my legs be numb after squatting for a long time, but also sweat like rain.

In winter, not to mention.

The winter in the capital, he experienced it last year.

It's too hard.

Before, in Nanluoguxiang, I went to public restrooms.

In fact, it is a dry toilet.

Not to mention the taste of this place, just running so far away to squat in a pit on a cold day made him feel that it was a kind of torture.

It seems that today's high and low also have to understand the environment of the bathroom.

Seeing that he was starting to get busy again, Ding Qiunan and the others were all curious: What do you want to toss again?

When he finished explaining, the family's eyes widened: What? Squatting on the toilet while blowing air conditioning? Not afraid of the cold in winter?

Fang Xiaochun felt this the most.

Originally, there was no difference between her before and after she got married.

Anyway, everyone is going to squat in the dry toilet.

However, after coming to the Zhou family once, the good guy shocked her and was stupid.

Not to mention the detached courtyard, almost every room has a separate bathroom.

And every bathroom also has a very good lavender scent, every time she goes to the toilet, it takes at least ten or twenty minutes to come out.

For the first time, she knew that she could enjoy going to the bathroom like this.

I have seen it for a long time.

But now?

What did my brother-in-law say just now?

The squatting toilet, and the air conditioner, hiss, the previous emperor, I'm afraid there was no such enjoyment, right?

In fact, squatting toilets are not unusual.

Two thousand years ago, more comfortable toilets were already in use in China.

However, this kind of high-end toilet is still a minority, and only the aristocracy can afford it.

The toilet for ordinary people is still the most traditional and common squat toilet in ancient times.

Ding Qiuhong was also full of curiosity.

This brother-in-law is simply omnipotent.

Upgrading the squat pit to a squatting toilet is simple.

The room of the four small ones is not in a hurry to be modified, and the bathroom of the master bedroom is renovated today.

It took a morning to squat the toilet and it was quickly done.

A ceramic flush toilet was removed from the bathroom in the warehouse space.

"Okay, who wants to experience it?"

The little goldfish was the first to raise his hand, and the third child was even more straightforward, closing the door directly and squatting inside.

was so angry that the little goldfish scolded the third brother for bullying his sister.

It didn't take long for the third child, who had been urged, to come out of the bathroom with a look of enjoyment.

"Third child, did you eat in it?"

"Ah, I've eaten it."

The third child responded to the eldest brother's words very smoothly, and the next moment, everyone collectively burst into laughter.

"Huh

Ha, third brother, you are eating in the toilet, hey, it stinks. ”

"Little goldfish, how can you say that about your third brother? He may not be eating, but eating ..... in the toilet"

With Zhou Shuqing's words, everyone's coaxing became louder.

The red-faced third child covered the little goldfish's mouth angrily, but everyone was laughing, so he had to run away.

After laughing for a while, Zhou Jimin said again:

"Alright, next, who else wants to experience it?"

The room fell silent in an instant, and everyone didn't dare to laugh.

I didn't dare to answer, I really went to the bathroom, did I eat in it again?

Ding Qiunan gave him a roll of his eyes and walked in.

A few minutes later, Ding Qiunan walked out with a satisfied smile on his face, and gave Zhou Jimin a thumbs up and said:

"This renovation is very good, the bathroom looks cleaner, and I really can't smell a trace of peculiar smell."

"Well, of course, but you still have to be careful not to block the water outlet, or it will be troublesome to unblock."

This remark was unanimously agreed by everyone.

It's all things at home, who has nothing to do such a lack of morality?

"By the way, Jimin, is there enough ice in the ice cellar? It's a waste to put so much ice in the bathroom, right? ”

"Don't be afraid, it's too much, as long as you waste it at will, use it casually, you don't have to worry about ice."

"Well, you're so nice."

The little couple sprinkled dog food, and the family sighed in disgust, Fang Xiaochun's face was full of envy, and he also missed Ding Xiaochuan.
