Chapter 6: Guilt
The living room was empty, and there was a "hissing" sound from the kitchen.
This is the sound of stir-frying.
Su Yulin walked into the kitchen and saw that his wife was standing by the stove and stir-frying.
It's busy.
The daughter is quite sensible, squatting by the stove to add firewood.
The little face is dirty.
"Is it fried? I bought braised pork. ”
Su Yulin spoke loudly.
Huang Yujiao, who was stir-frying, glanced at Su Yulin when she heard this, and half-believed and half-questioned: "Braised pork?" ”
The daughter was surprised and asked, "Dad, did you really buy braised pork and come back?" ”
The vegetables in the pot were fried, and there was not a single piece of meat.
When she heard that there was meat to eat, her daughter's eyes lit up.
Su Yulin suddenly felt extremely sad, hugged his daughter and said, "Dad really bought braised pork and came back, let's go, let's eat braised pork." ”
After speaking, Su Yulin returned to the living room with his daughter in his arms.
Before the daughter sat down, she saw a bowl of braised pork on the table, and immediately cheered excitedly: "There is really braised pork, there really is, Dad didn't lie, it's great, there is meat to eat, there is meat to eat." ”
is just a bowl of braised pork, but in the eyes of her daughter, it has become a delicacies from the mountains and seas.
Su Yulin's mood was heavy, and he secretly reminded himself that he must work hard to let his daughter have braised pork to eat every day.
Huang Yujiao came out of the kitchen with green vegetables, and saw at a glance that there was indeed a bowl of braised pork on the table, and her face couldn't help but change.
"Where did you get this braised pork? Stealing or borrowing money from someone to buy it? ”
The drunkard's husband hurt her so deeply that she couldn't believe that the braised pork on the table came from a clean path.
Seeing that his wife didn't believe him, Su Yulin quickly explained the cause and effect, and finally put all the money he earned from selling vegetables on the table.
There are a lot of pennies of all kinds, and the largest amount is a dollar coin.
Seeing so much money taken out of the hands of her drunkard husband, Huang Yujiao became even more uneasy, closed the living room door and plugged in the deadbolt, and returned to the table to count the banknotes.
A total of twenty-four pieces of two cents and one cent.
It's almost enough to catch up with her monthly salary.
She gets twenty-five cents a month.
The drunkard husband earned a month's salary after only one day of selling vegetables, which made her feel like she was in a dream.
"You really didn't lie to me? The money wasn't borrowed, nor was it won by gambling? Is it really earned by doing business? ”
While Huang Yujiao was excited, she was still a little uneasy.
Before that, the drunkard husband had also come home a few times and took out some money.
But the money was either won by gambling or borrowed from others.
Su Yulin could understand his wife's mood, and patiently explained again: "Jiao, I really didn't lie to you, this time the money was earned by me in a dignified business, and there was not a penny that came from the wrong way." If you don't believe me, I'll take you to meet the peasants next time you go to the market, and they can testify. ”
Huang Yujiao saw that the drunkard's husband was sincere, and there was no trace of falsehood on his face, so she dispelled the doubts in her heart.
"The braised pork is delicious, delicious."
The daughter chewed braised pork in her mouth and spoke slurredly.
Su Yulin's heart was sour again.
My daughter hadn't eaten meat for a long time, so much so that when she ate meat once, she was like a hungry ghost reincarnated.
"Eat more if it's delicious, Dad will make a lot of money in business in the future, and he will buy braised pork for you to eat every day."
Su Yulin sandwiched a piece of braised pork and put it in his daughter's bowl, his eyes were full of fatherly love.
Huang Yujiao poured cold water on her face: "You can buy braised pork once a week and come back, I thank God, I still buy it every day." Even rich families don't dare to eat braised pork every day. ”
Su Yulin remembered that he was a future person who was reborn, and confidently swore to his wife: "I will definitely let our family live a good life, and you and your mother will wait to enjoy it." ”
"Of course, it's a good thing that you have this heart, as long as you don't gamble or drink, I'm enjoying myself."
Huang Yujiao said what was in her heart.
In fact, happiness is not only linked to money, but also a kind of happiness to live a peaceful and down-to-earth life.
His wife's wish was so simple, but he couldn't have fulfilled it twenty years ago.
Su Yulin felt extremely guilty, and secretly scolded himself for not being a human being twenty years ago, and hurting his wife and daughter too deeply.
It would be rare to see a little meat at home for a month.
Wives and daughters live in fear every day.
Twenty years of self is really too damned, how can I be such a bastard?
The more Su Yulin thought about it, the more angry he became, and he really wanted to slap himself.
Huang Yujiao saw it in her eyes and thought that she didn't believe Su Yulin, which caused Su Yulin to be depressed.
So he changed his words: "As long as you are willing to be a new person, I believe you still have the ability to make our family live a good life." ”
It was such a simple sentence that immediately lifted Su Yulin's spirits, regained his smile, and added a piece of braised pork to his daughter's bowl.
The whole family of three ate and drank to their heart's content, and his wife put away the dishes and chopsticks.
The daughter flickered and blinked with a pair of big eyes, thoughtful.
Su Yulin asked while picking between his teeth, "What's wrong?" ”
The daughter tilted her head and thought, "Dad, I want a TV." ”
In the 80s, families with television sets were wealthy.
Su Yulin didn't feel good in his heart, hugged his daughter into his arms, and promised seriously: "When Dad earns money, I'll buy you a big color TV!" ”
"Really? Dad didn't lie, did he? ”
Her daughter's eyes lit up with excitement.
In the eighties, it was good to be able to afford a black-and-white TV.
A large color TV, the average family does not dare to dream of it.
Huang Yujiao came back after putting the dishes and chopsticks, and just heard the drunkard's husband promise his daughter to buy a large color TV, and immediately counted down the drunkard husband: "Don't think it's great to make dozens of dollars in business for a day, what kind of big color TV to buy, it's good to be able to afford a black and white TV." ”
"It seems that your wife, you just don't believe me." Su Yulin smiled bitterly, and then announced with great pride: "Wife, wait, it won't be long before there will be a big color TV, a Phoenix brand bicycle, and a sewing machine at home!" ”
These three items are indicators to measure the well-off families in the 80s, and being able to afford these three-piece sets represents entering the well-off.
Suddenly, Su Yulin felt extremely guilty in his heart.
His wife has been married to him for so many years, and the family can be said to be surrounded by four walls, and there is not a single decent household appliance.
But his wife worked hard and never disliked him as a poor ghost.
married such a beautiful, virtuous and kind wife, why was he idle and not enterprising?
The more Su Yulin thought about it, the more heartbroken he became.
After taking a shower, the family of three squeezed into a bed covered with straw mats to sleep.
Su Yulin became more and more heavy, and decided to work hard and do business.
In his highly competitive previous life, he was able to make his career bigger and become a boss worth more than 10 billion.
Now back to the past, where business opportunities are everywhere, it is natural to make money and make a fortune.
In a blink of an eye, it was the day of the market, and Su Yulin arrived in the town at eleven o'clock.
The farmers who had sold vegetables to him had waited outside the supply and marketing cooperatives for an hour, and when they saw him finally here, they were all overjoyed.
