Chapter 13: The Tunnel

It's done, but Silly Zhu is not very happy.

It wasn't until the afternoon of the next day that he told Lou Xiao'e the news.

In the evening, Lou Xiao'e told her son He Xiao the news again.

"Then I'll move in tomorrow?"

"Hmm."

Lou Xiao'e nodded, she was in a bit complicated mood now, and she didn't know if it was right or wrong to let her son go to live.

The appearance of the stupid pillar in the afternoon is not very good.

My son is so kind, but don't let the people in the courtyard bully.

"Ugh."

He Xiao sighed deeply, he glanced at the room, full of reluctance.

Over there in the courtyard, it is a large miscellaneous courtyard, not to mention taking a bath or something, and even going to the toilet has to go outside, not to mention how troublesome it is.

It's almost time for the summer heat, and there's a fan over there at most, don't think about air conditioning or anything, it's impossible to have one.

It's really uncomfortable.

Lying back, he collapsed on the sofa, not wanting to move.

"He Xiao, how much money do you want?"

As soon as he heard this, He Xiao came to his senses, and he quickly got up and moved to Lou Xiao'e's side.

Thinking about it, he held out a finger.

"Okay, I'll give you 10,000 first, and then I'll ask for it when it's used up, and this 10,000 is also your living expenses for these two months."

He Xiao swallowed a mouthful of saliva, her little heart trembled, her mother spoke too happily, she said 10,000 yuan, she didn't even blink her eyes, you must know that this is 10,000 yuan in the eighties!

A little greedy and insufficient, he thought about it and hurriedly said:

"Mom, then you can get me more foreign exchange coupons, I'm afraid that I won't be used to living in the courtyard, and I want to go to the friendship store tomorrow to buy some quilts and mattresses."

"Okay."

Lou Xiao'e agreed very happily, she went back to her room, and after a while, she walked back with a large stack of money.

Put the money on the glass table in front of the sofa and look spectacular.

Fortunately, there are 100 yuan bills, but the money is troublesome, and the largest ticket is a big unity of 10 yuan, and there are two thick stacks of 10,000 yuan.

"Ahem, thank you, Mom."

He Xiao was not polite, and accepted it all cheekily.

How to strive to become a 10,000-dollar household in the eighties, it is very simple, just have a rich mother.

……

He Xiao didn't have any luggage, and early the next morning, he put a few clothes and money into a small suitcase, carried them and walked out.

"He Xiao, do you want Mommy to send you there?"

Lou Xiao'e looked at her son with some reluctance, this was the first time her son left her and went to live somewhere else.

"No, I can do it myself."

He Xiao shook his head, he knew that Lou Xiao'e didn't like it there.

"When you go to the courtyard this time, except for your father, no one else should pay attention, especially there is a person named Xu Damao in the backyard, I have seen it that day, don't bother with him......"

"And the money in your little suitcase, don't let people know, don't believe all the people in the courtyard......"

Lou Xiao'e chattered for a while before stopping, "He Xiao, if you really don't feel comfortable, come back, you know?" ”

"Don't worry, Mom, I'm not a child anymore."

It could be seen that Lou Xiao'e was very worried about herself, He Xiao put down the small suitcase, stepped forward and gave her a big hug.

"Mom, don't forget to inquire about the house, if you buy it now, it will definitely appreciate in the future."

In addition to hugging, He Xiao did not forget to persuade her to buy a yard in the capital.

As long as Lou Xiao'e buys a few more sets of courtyards, he will be able to lie down comfortably for the rest of his life.

Hey, it's good to be a rich second generation.

……

didn't let Lou Xiao'e send it off, nor did he let the stupid pillar pick it up, He Xiao walked out of the hotel with a small suitcase.

He was not in a hurry, and went downstairs, ready to go to Dongfeng Market for breakfast first.

In the store, he looked at the bean juice in the bucket, and was a little curious, so he specially asked for a bowl.

"Hmm......"

As soon as this thing entered his mouth, He Xiao only felt sour and sour, and after a while, he swallowed it forcibly.

"Ahem......"

Well, it always feels like there's something missing......

"It's authentic!"

As soon as he said this, the uncle at the table next to him became interested.

"Oh, young man, I understand, the bean juice here, I came to drink it when I was a child, nothing else, I just love this taste, authentic."

Forehead......

"Ah...... Well. ”

He Xiao was a little embarrassed, he didn't know what to say, under the old man's gaze, he picked up the bowl and drank a few sips.

"Hey, young man, you're not authentic, how can you drink bean juice without coke rings and shredded pickles?"

The uncle looked at the food on his table and immediately frowned.

I grabbed a scorch circle, picked up a small plate of sesame and pickle shreds, and the uncle walked over.

"Come, try, take a bite of the coke ring, clip two shredded pickles, and drink a sip of bean juice while it's hot, that's called comfort."

Uncle was enthusiastic, He Xiao was embarrassed to refuse, he glanced at the burnt circle between the uncle, the color was dark yellow, like a fritter, but it was round.

According to what the uncle said, he picked up and chewed a scorched ring, paired it with a few pickles, and finally drank a sip of bean juice.

"Hmm...... Authentic, authentic! ”

He Xiao stretched out his thumb, and the taste of the last mouthful of bean juice was really different from before.

I don't know if it's his delusion, he feels that the taste is okay, not as bad as before.

The uncle laughed and went back satisfied.

……

After eating and drinking, He Xiao carried a small suitcase and stood on the side of the road and waited leisurely for a while.

I wanted to take a taxi to the courtyard, but he waited for a long time and didn't see him.

Finally waiting for one to come, he waved his hand vigorously, but the taxi drove away as if he hadn't seen him.

Look in that direction, go straight to the Peace Hotel.

Yes, the people who drive in this era are uncles, he shook his head, turned his head and went to study the bus stop signs.

Looking down at his small suitcase, in addition to clothes and money, there were also a collection of snuff bottles and old newspapers, which were a bit heavy to carry.

If it had been a trolley suitcase, he would have walked over it a long time ago.

"Huh? Trolley cases? ”

He Xiao touched his chin and tried to think about it, the original owner didn't seem to have seen this thing.

Not only in the capital, he had never seen a trolley box in Xiangjiang, and in the memory of the original owner, it seemed that there was no such thing at all.

"Wouldn't it? Isn't it impossible to invent something as simple and convenient as a trolley case? ”

He Xiao felt a little incredible.

He immediately thought that this was a good opportunity, but it was also possible that foreign countries already had it, but it was not popular here.

It seems that when I return to Xiangjiang, I will have to inquire carefully.

Lying flat is lying flat, you can encounter opportunities to make money, and you can't miss it.

He was thinking about it when he saw a red and white bus coming in the distance.

He Xiao came back to his senses, and he hurriedly got into the car with a small suitcase.

The bus swayed and stopped, and after more than 20 minutes, it arrived at Qingyun Hutong.

He Xiao stood at the mouth of the alley, carrying a small suitcase, and his mood was quite complicated.

I didn't want to have anything to do with the courtyard, but I didn't expect to escape in the end.

"Hey, forget it, the soldiers will block, the water will cover the earth, let me see the legendary love full courtyard! It's not in vain! ”
