On the morning of the third day of junior high school, Xinlan rushed to the business of the square, and after settling her home, she and Fusheng came to the theater square early, but what they didn't expect was that there were already people in the square who had already opened first.

Seeing this, Fusheng couldn't help but be surprised in his heart. Xindao, I really want money and don't want to die. Thinking like this, he shook his head slightly and said to Xinlan with a self-deprecating expression: "Good guy! I also said in my heart that we are not too old, but I didn't expect that there would be someone who came earlier than us, what a loss of money! ”

When Xinlan heard this, she smiled and said, "That's because you don't know about this business." I don't know if I told you? When he first took over this store, Sun Wei once told me that he said that the business here in the cinema, the real opportunity to make a lot of money is in these few activity periods, as long as you seize these opportunities, you can basically take care of the expenses of a year, and the business at other times is profitable. ”

"It seems to have been said, but it seems to have not been said!" Fusheng couldn't remember whether Xinlan had told him this, and while answering ambiguously, he spread the firecrackers he brought in front of the store, and then lit them, hid to the side, and watched it crack and finish, then went over and opened the door, and then entered the house with Xinlan, and while cleaning up the house, he replenished the counters and shelves.

The two were busy with all their attention, and before they knew it, a crowd gathered in the square, and the business opened unconsciously, slowly, and gradually reached a climax. In this way, it was not until after a busy period of time that people began to line up to enter the market, and business gradually stagnated, so the two turned to replenish the shelves.

It didn't take long for the bustling square to become empty, there was no flow of people, and business came to a near standstill. Xinlan made up the goods, and when she was idle, she began to sort out the change in the drawer. Fusheng sat on the stool on the side, watching Xinlan's preoccupied appearance while slowing down. Thinking back to just now, Fusheng sighed: "Don't say it, thinking about this Spring Festival, who can not have snacks in their pockets, business will definitely not be good!" I didn't expect this time to be busy, but it was better than a year ago. ”

"Of course! What is the Spring Festival stall? This is the Spring Festival file, needless to say, the movie must be the most attractive new film, although most of the people who come to watch the movie during the Spring Festival bring their own snacks, but even so, they can't stand the number of people watching the movie! There are so many people who have a temporary intention and don't bring any snacks, so naturally the business is also good! Xinlan didn't raise her head in response.

"Don't say it, it's true!" Fusheng smacked his lips thoughtfully and nodded.

Xinlan only cared about some money and ignored him. Fusheng didn't care, seeing that she was busy, he turned his eyes to a certain corner of the square, and looked at it sluggishly, as if he had something on his mind, as for what he was thinking, maybe he might not be able to say. After checking the money, Xinlan turned around and called him home to cook, that he stared at him, and then reached out to pick up the key, locked the door and went out.

On the way back, remembering Fusheng's demeanor just now, Xinlan said: "Fusheng, what hysteria did you have just now?" Are you thinking about something? ”

"What can I think about?! Aren't you just thinking about going out to find a job after the New Year? ”

"Where are you going to find it?"

"Old business, I just don't know if people want it?"

"Then why not, you're not a novice."

"Not necessarily! It's all construction companies, not the construction team in our hometown. ”

"Anyway, I'm all engaged in construction, so I think it's okay to do temporary work." Xinlan Road.

"Who knows? I remember that when we went back to our hometown, if the construction team was not in good health and no one could enter the construction team, the settlement was also to give work, but it was only after the production was contracted to the household that the team became paid. Who knows what the current situation is like here? ”

"If you don't know, don't think about it, let's talk about it after the New Year!" Xinlan said casually.

Hearing Xinlan say this, Fusheng didn't pick up, followed home, and soon arrived home.

Sure enough, the children went out and haven't come back yet. The two knew that the children must have gone out to go crazy, and they didn't know when they would come back, so they didn't care, so they went straight to the kitchen, one to cook, the other to help, slipped steamed buns, and boiled a big pot of chowder. After eating, the rest is left in the pot for the children. After cleaning up and resting for a while, it was time for afternoon business, so the two went to the square again.

In this way, for several days in a row, Fusheng and Xinlan basically stayed at the store except for sleeping, cooking, and occasionally going to their mother's. They didn't let the kids meddle in the business anymore.

The time of the Spring Festival is short, but it is also pleasant. The children had fun, and Xinlan and Fusheng lived a fulfilling life. In a blink of an eye, it was the tenth day of the first lunar month, and at the same time that the movie activity schedule was over, Lu Dong also returned to the unit and started to work; The two sisters are even more at the beginning of school. This matter was done by the old man a few years ago, and naturally it didn't take much trouble, and the sisters entered the school smoothly; Next, it was time to be separated from Lu Nan. Although it is said that the child is already older, but after all, it is a child, Xinlan and Fusheng are worried and can't bear to be separated. But after all, there is no banquet in the world that will not be dispersed, let alone for the future of the child? Fusheng and Xinlan had no choice, so they had to send Lu Nan away after repeatedly telling Lu Nan.

As soon as the children left, life returned to its old ways. According to the previous rhythm, Liu Qin returned to the store and replaced her mother-in-law Xinlan with business. In this way, Fusheng instantly became a superfluous person, and for three or four days in a row, in addition to helping to buy goods once, he could only help Xinlan cook at home. But letting a strong person do this is not a common thing after all, not to mention that there is Liu Qin here, even if he doesn't say it, it also makes him feel uncomfortable as a father-in-law. Fusheng was awkward and anxious, and on the morning of the fourteenth day of the first lunar month, he inquired about the road and went to the nearby labor market to try his luck.

Before the Lantern Festival, it stands to reason that there are not many people in the countryside looking for work, and in his opinion, this may be an opportunity. But when he went to the market, he saw that there were already a lot of people in the labor market. Fusheng looked around the east and west, and after turning around for a long time, he saw that the three or three people were talking about the conditions and bargaining in twos and threes, and they were all temporary jobs, and there was no construction that he wanted to do for a long time. Fusheng was a little disappointed, and said in his heart, I'd better wait for the Lantern Festival to take a look at the construction company, maybe I can find a job there. With this in mind, he was about to walk back, when his eyes swept to a group of people under a large tree on the side of the road in the market. Fusheng was a little curious, so he went over to look, and saw a middle-aged fat man surrounded by people, talking about some details about recruitment. Fusheng listened carefully for a while, and then he heard that this was a small coal kiln in the western mountains to recruit workers, and the treatment was not bad. Fusheng listened to this, and secretly thought in his heart, if it is really like what they said, this job should be good, he might as well try it, and if he wins, he will continue to do it, and if he doesn't win, he will do it for two months, that is, he will make money, and he will relieve his anxiety for a while. He thought so, so he asked for the contact address, turned around and went home.

Xinlan is cooking at home. As soon as Fusheng saw it when he got home, he told her what he thought. When Xinlan heard this, she said without thinking: "Stop it, this idea will definitely not come true, let's not talk about how much money he has, just say that I don't want to work in the coal kiln!" ”

"Why not? You might as well give me a reason to dispel my idea. Fusheng asked.

"Give me a reason? Needless to say, you are called panicking and hunger. Our family has just moved in, and we haven't been together for two days, and you want to run away, and you don't want to think about whether the small coal kiln is safe, and I don't want to worry about you all day long about this! If you don't have a job, take a break for two days, and don't just rush to find a job and ignore anything! ”

When Fusheng heard this, he hurriedly said: "If you don't say it, I'll try it first, and I'll do it; No, it's just two months. ”

"Stop, resolutely no!" Xinlan cut the railway.

When Fusheng heard this, he knew that Xinlan would not agree for a while, so he didn't say anything more, and just kept the matter in his heart.

In the evening, Lu Dong returned. During the meal, Fusheng told this again. When Lu Dong heard this, he reacted even more and said: "Dad, going to that small coal kiln is not as simple as you think, you must not go." ”

"Why do you say that?"

"It's not that I have to say that, it's really that there is no safety guarantee in this matter, so you must not have this thought again, yes, my mother and I will not let you go, so as not to make the family unpeaceful." Seeing that Fusheng was still a little insistent, Lu Dong simply expressed his attitude.

Hearing Lu Dong say the same, Fusheng had no choice but to break off this thought, and he had no idea at all. But when he turned around and thought about finding a job later, he wanted to hear Lu Dong's opinion again. So, he said to Lu Dong: "Lu Dong, you also know the situation of our family, I just came back, and I don't know many people, and I suddenly want to find someone to help, not to mention your father's age here, it's even more difficult to find." Now there's a chance here, Mom, you two can't do this, that can't work, so tell me, where can I find a job here? ”

"It's not that you don't want to, Dad! You only go for a day, don't see anything and think it's an opportunity, let me say, it's still a little early, you will be two days late, and then go to the market after the end of the year, when the time comes, whether the construction site or the factory has started, there must be an opportunity to employ people, if you really can't go to the construction company to see, maybe you can still do your old job. ”

When Fusheng heard about it, he thought about it, so he didn't say anything more. Xinlan watched this matter off the shelf, knowing that Fusheng would not move the idea of going to the small coal kiln again, so she finished dinner with confidence, and then asked Lu Dong and Liu Qin to go back to rest first, and after she and Fusheng cleaned up the dishes and chopsticks, they went to the store together.
