Chapter 25: Bitter Fate
After going for a while, Huang Chunzhen came in with her little feet again, "My man said, you give two hundred and sixty yuan for these things, do you think it's okay?" ”
Susie nodded, "Okay, I'll go back and get the money." ”
Huang Chunzhen's face was happy, "However, our family has no labor, you have to find someone to move back by yourself." ”
Susie took a look, she was afraid that it would not work just by people to move, and she had to get a car to tow it back.
Aunt Liu said enthusiastically: "It's simple, the production team has a donkey cart, I'll call Old Man Lan to come and drag it over for you." ”
Tian Xiaohui's mouth was quick, "Aunt Liu, it's dark now, and you can't see the road, or you can move it during the day tomorrow." ”
Aunt Liu waved her hand and whispered: "What do you girls know, you just want to move at night and buy so many things, it's too eye-catching, and no one knows if you move over quietly at night." ”
When Susie heard this, she was really grateful to Aunt Liu, speaking of which, she was not familiar with Aunt Liu, but people really thought about her, they were really willing to help, and everything was taken into account.
Aunt Liu patted Susie on the shoulder and walked away like a gust of wind.
Susie went back to the collective household, closed the door and took the money, and then ran outside the male intellectual's house and shouted: "Qiao Mu, Yuan Gang, you two help me move something." ”
There was an answer in the middle of the room, "They're not here." ”
Then Zhu Zhicheng walked to the door, "If you want to move, I'll help you move." ”
Susie didn't shirk either, "Thank you, I bought a few old furniture, the wardrobe is heavy, I'm afraid it will take a few people to carry it." ”
Zhu Zhicheng walked out with Susie, walked to the door, and met Qiao Mu and Yuan Gang who came back from carrying water.
The two went to the kitchen to pour water, and then followed Susie to Xu Changyou's house together.
Tian Xiaohui and Zhao Tingting had already moved the tables and chairs to the yard and wiped them clean with rags.
Susie and Huang Chunzhen stepped aside to count the money.
When they entered, they lifted the screen first.
Qiao Mu tried it first, but the screen did not move at all.
Seeing this, Zhu Zhicheng stepped forward and easily moved the screen, and then motioned to Qiao Mu, "I'll put the screen down, and you two will follow." ”
"You lift that head, I lift this head."
Yuan Gang couldn't help but say, "Brother Zhu, you are really strong. ”
The three of them cooperated, and soon lifted the screen out.
Tian Xiaohui was about to go up to wipe the rag, but Susie came over to stop her, "Don't wipe it, this thing is just left like this, and it won't be used anyway." ”
This screen full of luodian is so beautiful, and when it is wiped clean to reveal its true face, it attracts people's eyes.
Then a few male intellectuals went in to carry the cabinet.
The cabinet looks like a whole, but when it is removed, it is four parts, two double-door cabinets and two boxes, which are easy to move.
Liu Hongying came in the donkey cart of Old Man Lan, and several people put all the furniture in the cart, tied it with ropes, and drove the cart out.
Along the way, Aunt Liu gossiped all the way.
Su Suqian quickly figured out from Aunt Liu's words that Old Man Lan was Aunt Lan's father.
Tian Xiaohui whispered: "I think that if Aunt Lan hadn't been blind in one eye, she would have looked pretty good." ”
Aunt Liu sighed regretfully, "Who said it wasn't, Xiu'er was born beautiful and bright, there was nothing wrong with anywhere, she grew to three or four years old, and she was even more beautiful, like a New Year's doll, who didn't like it." ”
"I didn't expect that when I was five years old, I was blinded by the boy next door with a slingshot and Xiu'er girl in one eye."
"It's also Xiu'er's hard life, she was blind in one eye and got polio a few years later. It didn't cost much to send him to the hospital, and the person was saved, but his leg was also lame. ”
"Old man Lan's family is kind, I always feel that it is because the family does not take good care of the child, so that the good child has become a cripple, when he got married, the family saw that Xiu'er had no ability to work, and married a lame man, afraid that she would have a bad life in the future, so he gave the dowry a sewing machine, which cost more than 100 yuan, and begged people everywhere to get ten industrial coupons to buy."
"However, although Xiu'er is married to a lame woman, her life is better than anyone else, there are no in-laws above, and she doesn't have to go to the ground, at most she touches the vegetable garden in the house, and no one has an easy life like her."
Susie was about to inquire about Uncle Liao's details, so she followed Aunt Liu's words and said, "I heard that Uncle Liao used to be a Taoist priest, is it true?" ”
Aunt Liu whispered: "That's not true. ”
"In the past, the Taoist incense on the mountain was vigorous, but then the movement was broken, and a group of people from the seven-row production team next door came and smashed it, Liao Zhenyuan and his senior brother were beaten hard, his senior brother ran away, and Liao Zhenyuan settled in our team."
"Liao Zhenyuan's marriage to Lan Xiuer is still the matchmaker my mother told me!"
"At that time, many people said that Xiu'er would have a hard time in the future, Liao Zhenyuan couldn't go to the ground, couldn't earn work, Xiu'er couldn't do any work herself, and the two of them were going to starve to death at home, saying that the Lan family might as well leave Xiu'er at home to be an old girl."
"But look, which daughter-in-law doesn't envy Xiu'er now? Count her family's good days! ”
Susie asked, "Their family relies on Aunt Lan to work as a tailor to support the family, right?" ”
"How much money can you make in that? Nowadays, every household can't eat enough, how can there be spare money to make new clothes, that is, after the autumn harvest, make a winter cotton jacket for a while, that is not much money, a cotton jacket is only two or three yuan. ”
Aunt Liu suddenly lowered her voice, "Let me tell you, don't tell others, Liao Zhenyuan is lame and often runs outside, he must be making money, as for how did he earn it?" Some people say that Liao Zhenyuan is engaged in speculation outside, but he doesn't know whether it's true or not. ”
Listening to Aunt Liu's gossip all the way, I arrived unconsciously.
The donkey entered the yard and barked happily, and the educated youths in the house came out to see the movement.
Susie thought that Chen Changqing was the team leader after all, so she explained to him, "There are a few old pieces of furniture bought in the member's house, but there are no tables and chairs in this room, which is really inconvenient. ”
It was dark, and Chen Changqing and the others couldn't see what the furniture looked like, so they stood under the eaves and looked at it for a while, probably because they were afraid to ask them to come forward to help, and soon they went back to the house.
The furniture was put away, and the room was all the same.
The table of eight immortals was placed under the front window, the wardrobe was placed against the wall, and the screen was erected in the corner, still gray.
Lan Laohan didn't drink a cup of tea, and was about to leave with the donkey cart, when Susie chased him out and stuffed him with a bag of sorghum syrup.
Lan Laohan insisted that he didn't want it, "You doll, such a trivial matter is effortless, how can I ask for your things." ”
Susie stuffed it back again, "It's just a few pieces of candy, it's not worth anything, you take it back and give it to your grandchildren." ”
Listening to Aunt Liu say that his two sons, it is estimated that the grandson must have it.
Lan Laohan pushed it for a while before he reluctantly accepted it and drove away.
Susie returned to the house, Tian Xiaohui and Zhao Tingting were cleaning the cabinet.
As the cabinet was wiped clean little by little, it was as if the bride lifted the lid little by little, revealing her peerless face.
The flowers and birds sparkling with Raden, and the whole wardrobe is gorgeous.
