Chapter Twenty-Six: Yan Lao's Picking
"Grandma, aunt, I don't think you two should fight, I must pay for my own house. I already have a way to furniture, and I don't lack anything, but the master who repairs the house uses cement bricks and tiles, and I don't know where to find it. ”
Li Weidong didn't plan to let his family take the money from the beginning, but he just had to trouble Zhang Xiuzhen in terms of finding someone.
Yang Fangfang's already big eyes instantly became bigger, and she looked at Li Weidong with some staggering.
She never thought that her second uncle was so rich.
As a recent marriage, she knows exactly how much it costs to furnish a home.
But since you are so rich, why did you have to buy old furniture before?
Something is wrong?
"You have money?" Zhang Xiuzhen was a little puzzled.
Listening to the mother-in-law's meaning, the old man's money was not directly left to Li Weidong, and he was in the countryside before, where did he get so much money?
Even the old lady looked directly at Li Weidong.
In her own grandson, she can be unprincipled, but at the same time, she is firm in principle.
For example, Li Weidong is absolutely not allowed to follow crooked paths.
"Ahem, I met a friend on the black market before, he asked me to collect some wild boar, the price was okay, I thought about going back to the countryside in two days, and looking for my second uncle to help shoot two wild boars."
Li Weidong moved out with a good excuse that he had already made.
Now his biggest problem is that he has no job, so he has no money.
In the future, if he often brought food to the house, they would definitely be suspicious, so he needed a plausible excuse to reassure them.
"Wild boar hunting? Wouldn't it be too dangerous? Zhang Xiuzhen asked with a frown.
"It's okay, my second uncle and they go to the mountains to hunt every year, and when the time comes, they sell it for money, and I share it equally with my second uncle." Li Weidong said.
"Don't talk crazy, can your second uncle ask you for money?" The old lady spoke.
She was able to say this, and she basically agreed to the matter.
"But be careful yourself, you can go to places like the black market as little as you can."
"Milk, you can rest assured, if you really want to trade, how can you go to the black market, you must make an appointment with a safe place, and when you sell the wild boar, you will have the money to pick up the house."
"It's okay, if it's not enough, just tell your grandmother, anyway, your grandfather also said that the money is left for you to marry your daughter-in-law."
"It's still early to marry a daughter-in-law, so don't worry."
"It's not early, when Grandpa Ling was so old as you, he had your second uncle, and your father was married at this age."
"I don't even have a job now, who wants to marry me? Let's wait two years. ”
Li Weidong didn't expect it, and as he spoke, it became a marriage urging.
In his previous life, he was thirty years younger when he got married, and he didn't plan to get married early in this life.
"Now I don't have a city hukou, I can't become a regular job at all, and when your dad comes back, I will discuss with him to see if I can move your hukou back first, after all, you are your dad's own son, just move the hukou back, it shouldn't be so difficult." Zhang Xiuzhen couldn't help but say.
Next to her, the old lady was angry when she heard it.
"It's all your grandfather's fault, when I was going to settle the household registration, I said that I would leave your household registration in the city, but he didn't want it, saying that the grandson he raised had to have a household registration book with him, now it's okay? delayed the major events of his grandson's life. ”
"Milk, don't worry, when I go back to the countryside in a few days, I'll go burn some paper for my grandfather and talk about it."
To be honest, Li Weidong has no obsession with whether it is a city hukou or not.
Anyway, he didn't live on that ration.
As for saying that you don't have a city hukou and can't find a job.
Doesn't it just give him an excuse to lie flat?
"Okay, when the time comes, you can help me scold that old man." The old lady said with a smile.
She is very pleased that her grandson can remember to go to his grandfather's grave.
Although the old man had a bad temper and was still stubborn, the two of them had never blushed in their lives.
When he left, she really wanted to follow.
But the old man took her hand and asked her to show him his great-grandson.
So she had to wait.
Until one day.
In the afternoon, Zhang Xiuzhen cut the fat and began to refine the lard.
Suddenly, the courtyard was full of incense.
In his last life, when Li Weidong was young, he was also refining lard to eat at home in the countryside.
He still remembers his mother refining lard, and he drooled greedily, and then his mother gave him a piece of bubbling meat scraps.
In my memory, it was hot and delicious.
Later, when I grew up, I went to school, stayed in the city, and basically ate peanut oil.
I don't have the same smell as I used to have when I was a kid anymore.
Now, smelling the familiar scent, his thoughts drifted away.
The Yan family, who also lived in the front yard, was the first to smell it.
This Yan family is the three great masters of Yan Bugui's family, and they are teachers.
If you say, the second uncle is a complete official fan and wants to be an official.
Then the three masters are iron roosters, and the abacus is called a fine.
Today he was actually at home, because he had a stomachache and diarrhea, so he didn't go to school.
The movement in the backyard in the morning naturally did not hide from him.
Originally, he planned to wait for the time when there was a lot of trouble before showing up, so that the favor could be sufficient.
Unexpectedly, the matter ended much faster than he imagined.
So much so that the abacus did not start.
For this reason, he didn't get out of his breath all morning.
"Who's buying the meat?"
After smelling the fragrance, Yan Bugui couldn't sit still.
In order to live a good life, he calculated to the bones.
The most classic quotation is: You can't eat poorly, you can't wear poor, and if you can't calculate, you will be poor.
"I just smelled it and took a look, it seems to be the Li family." His mother-in-law said with her neck stretched.
"Look, the family of this cadre is different." Yan Bugui's teeth were sour.
"How do you know people are different?"
"Ladies are short-sighted, the Li family is in charge of the pen, a crooked mouth, bad things can become good things, and vice versa is the same, when you can't see, I don't know how many people carry things to the door, just to make his mouth crooked, these things can you see?"
Yan Bugui is a Chinese teacher, and to a certain extent, he can also take a side with the literati, and he knows the power of the pen best.
"Really? I don't think the Li family is inconspicuous on weekdays, and even if it is meat, it is rarely bought, right? His mother-in-law was skeptical.
"Heh, people naturally eat secretly, or go to the restaurant, you don't even know where the door opens. Besides, without these things as a foundation, with his eldest son's ability to cause trouble, he would have ruined his family a long time ago, and he still eats meat? ”
Yan Bugui was convinced of his brain supplement.
"That's right, his old lady and second son have moved here, and they must have saved a lot of possessions."
Now, even his mother-in-law began to believe.
The two began to sum up in the house, and finally came to the conclusion that they wanted to be cadres.
There is a teaching director in Yan Bugui's school who is about to retire, although there is no rank, but it is also an important step from a teacher to a school leader.
If he can take this position......
It's just that he also knows that he will definitely not be able to rely on himself.
Gotta find a relationship!
"Bring me the fishing rod."
"What?"
"The old lady of the Li family and her second son have been here for so long, as the third master in the courtyard, can I not go to condole? This is a visitor, don't you bring something embarrassed? Yan Bugui said.
"Isn't it more than half a year before the director of your school leaves?"
"Say that you are a girl who is not sensible, you are still unconvinced, there are contacts between people, that is called a relationship. It's like fishing, you have to make a good nest before you can catch a fish easily. ”
