Chapter 55: White Lies
After buying a bicycle ticket, Zhou Li'an did not go to the supply and marketing cooperatives to buy a bicycle for the first time.
She stayed and bought up two stalls.
One sells eggs and the other sells pork.
In recent years, most of the people who came to the black market to sell things were not large.
Zhou Li'an bought all the egg stalls, and only bought two catties of eggs, which cost a piece of six.
I bought ten catties of fresh pork, including three catties of pork belly, and the others were lean meat that most people didn't like at this time, and it cost a total of twelve yuan nine.
After buying eggs and pork, Zhou Li'an went to the supply and marketing cooperatives to buy a bicycle.
It cost a total of one hundred and sixty-two dollars and five.
Today's income is five hundred and twenty-two, and the cost is three hundred and twenty-seven.
Coupled with the remaining 'hair and hair' on his body before, Zhou Li'an actually had two hundred and three pieces.
When he rode his bicycle back, Zhou Li'an felt that he was richer than ever.
When Zhou Li'an returned to the village, he had already missed lunchtime, but it happened to be the time for everyone to go to work in the afternoon.
Zhou Li'an found a place where no one was around, and took out the pork he bought and fixed it on the back seat of the bicycle.
As for the eggs, they are hung on the handlebars of the bicycle with a bag, and most bicycles at this time do not have a basket in front of them.
After doing this, Zhou Li'an continued to ride forward, ready to meet the curiosity and discussion of the aunts in the village.
As Zhou Li'an expected, she rode a brand new bike, which quickly caught the attention of others.
"Girl of the Zhou family, buy so much meat?"
"Zhou girl, what's in the bag in front."
Zhou Li'an replied to the bag's question: "I bought some eggs, didn't my own chicken just bring it?" I can't lay eggs yet, so I thought I'd buy something to eat first. ”
"That's ......"
I really can't live.
"Zhou girl, where did you get the bicycle?" An aunt shouted.
"I bought it." Zhou Li'an replied.
"That's ......"
"Auntie, you're busy, I'll go first." After earning enough attention from the aunts in the village, and after achieving the goal, Zhou Li'an said.
"Good, good."
Zhou Li'an hadn't gone far before the chatter of the aunts came from behind.
"Don't say it, it's different to have money, I bought all the bicycles."
Someone retorted.
"What other money, a total of 600 yuan from the Lu family, first to start a house, and now to buy such an expensive bicycle, usually buy meat and eggs, I see her panic when she spends money like this."
"What are you panicking about, have you spent your family's money, and besides, isn't there still thirty-six a month?"
"Where can you get so many votes when you buy so much meat at once?"
"You don't understand that, do you? If you have money, you can exchange tickets. ”
"Isn't that a loss?"
"Rich people can think the same as you."
"This week, the girl bought eggs, why didn't she buy them in the village, and we didn't have to go to the buying station to sell them."
"These young people are not at home, how do they know that rice, oil and salt are expensive, and they want to buy them from the village."
"I estimate that after repairing the house and buying the car, she shouldn't have much money in her hands."
"Yes, no matter how much money you have, you can't afford to spend it like this, you say this bike is so expensive, what's the use of buying it?"
“……”
When Zhou Li'an was riding, he met Zhou's mother, who was working.
"Mom, come over for dinner in the evening, I have something to say."
Zhou's mother has long seen her daughter riding a bicycle, who knows where her daughter got it.
When I got closer, I noticed that my daughter had so much fresh pork tied to the table behind her.
Seeing her daughter buying meat so lavishly, Zhou's mother had the heart to persuade her.
But now that there are so many people around, she doesn't want to talk about her daughter in front of everyone, so she has to accept her daughter's invitation in the evening.
If you want to see your daughter at night, you must talk about her.
If you have money, you should save money, and you can't spend it lavishly.
Otherwise, the money in hand will be spent, and how will I live in the future?
You must know that it is difficult to go from luxury to frugality.
Zhou Li'an didn't know Zhou's mother's thoughts, and after she got home, she began to cook for the hungry Xiao Zhouzhou.
She didn't take anything in the space to eat on the road today, thinking that Xiao Zhouzhou was at home, so she came back to eat together.
Xiao Zhouzhou's legs hadn't grown well yet, and Zhou Li'an saw that it had finished eating, so he wiped Xiao Zhouzhou's mouth before holding it next to Lu Yanzhou.
When Xiao Zhouzhou was put down, Zhou Li'an obviously felt Xiao Zhouzhou rubbing against her hand, as if thanking her.
In the beginning, small animals were raised to prevent people from attacking at night.
Now, Zhou Li'an takes good care of Xiao Zhouzhou because he likes it, although Xiao Zhouzhou seems to prefer Lu Yanzhou.
Zhou Li'an touched Xiao Zhouzhou's dog head before going to clean up the house.
After tidying up, she sat down behind her desk and began to read.
She graduated from college before she crossed, and all the knowledge of high school has long been returned to the teacher, and the content is different from the later one, so she needs to study seriously.
After reading the book for more than three hours, seeing that it was almost time to get off work, Zhou Li'an went to the kitchen.
It's just that after staying in the kitchen for a second, Zhou Li'an came to the yard again.
She released the chicks in the space, and after a while, the careful mother Zhou wanted to come over, and Zhou Li'an was worried that the other party would ask.
Although her chicks are already a little strange, after all, they grow three times faster in space than outside.
But she couldn't make the chick smaller, so it was the only way.
It's a big deal, Zhou's mother asked the size of the chick, and she didn't know what to ask.
After doing this, Zhou Li'an entered the kitchen again.
Tonight, she plans to make a braised pork, shredded pumpkin, shredded pork with green peppers, and tomato and egg soup.
When she was done, the second brother Zhou Shu'an came over with Zhou's mother.
As before, Zhou Shu'an gave Zhou Li'an twenty yuan first: "Tomorrow's vegetable money." ”
After Zhou Li'an accepted the money, he saw Zhou's mother looking at the chicken nest.
She also clearly saw that Mother Zhou was a little puzzled when she saw those chicks.
But Zhou's mother didn't ask her daughter in the end.
After all, there are no other problems with those chickens other than being bigger.
Her daughter couldn't make the chickens bigger, so she asked what.
Zhou's mother went to the kitchen to help her daughter serve food.
Watching those good dishes served to the table one by one, Zhou's mother had mixed feelings.
This daughter is really, thinking about them for everything.
Yesterday, the second child went back and said that the wrapped dumplings and the meat they bought back were directly given to them.
Thinking of this, Zhou's mother advised:
"If there are any good things in the future, think about yourself, your father and I are old, we don't need to eat such good things, your brother is young, you have to get good food by yourself, you shouldn't be a sister who always gives them it, and if you want to take it, they will give it to you."
Hearing Zhou's mother say this, Zhou Li'an knew that the other party must be distressed about her money.
In order to make Zhou's mother less distressed in the future, Zhou Lian had no choice but to tell a white lie.
