"Why so much money?" Zhang Huihong said incredulously.

Zhang Ze's heart was stunned when he was asked, he forgot that he could only put a few fish in the bucket, but he couldn't sell it for so much money.

His head turned sharply, and in an instant he thought of a suitable reason: "This is not a good business, so I got some fish from the river next to the county seat and continued to sell them, and I ended up selling so much." ”

"That's it! Mom will save this money for you and leave it for you to marry your daughter-in-law! ”

Zhang Huihong happily handed over more than nine yuan to Zhang Ze and put away the remaining forty yuan.

Hearing that he was talking about marrying a daughter-in-law, he was somewhat helpless.

Zhang Ze naturally thought about this problem, the marriage in his previous life made him not trust marriage very much, but after all, he is a person of this era, even if he understands the thoughts of young people in later generations, he still thinks that marriage and inheritance are a big deal.

How could the new idea of not marrying affect him, a man born at the time of the founding of the country.

Therefore, he did not mind marrying a nice woman to warm the bed according to the memories of his later life.

Later generations are old, and he has no heart for women.

But now it's back to when I was younger, and my body is restless!

I can't have a girlfriend who has to fish and got... Fishy on fishy?

It's a pity that after thinking about it for a while, he didn't think of which daughter-in-law was suitable for cutting off her beard, and the matter of simply getting married was slow.

Maybe when you can do business and become a 10,000 yuan household, you will have a wide range of choices and you can meet a good one.

"Mom, I'm not in a hurry to marry my daughter-in-law, I will continue to sell fish in the future, and the money will definitely be there. Now the main thing is to arrange for A Qian to go to study, and learning Braille is better than not knowing a single big character now. ”

Hearing the reading, the three little ones all pricked up their ears.

It's just that Zhang Qian looked a little hesitant: "Brother, I'm so old, can I still read?" ”

Zhang Ze looked at this quiet sister and seemed to find the hidden hope in her eyes.

"What does it have to do with age? I saw a lot of girls of your age in the county today who have started to study. ”

"Reading can gain knowledge and expand one's horizons, even if you don't have to go to university."

Zhang Huihong said angrily when she heard this: "Ah Qian is eighteen years old, and she has reached the age of getting married, and Ah Qing is also fifteen, and she will have to get married in a few years, how can she have time to read this book." ”

"It's just that Ah Wu is still young, so it's okay to let him study, and he rolls in the mud all day and night."

"And it costs a few dollars a year to study, and you don't know if you can really be so good at selling fish, and our family may not be able to read."

As soon as these words came out, Zhang Qian and Zhang Qing immediately lowered their heads, their faces were inevitably lost, seeing that the two of them really wanted to study.

Don't look at Zhang Huihong, who is usually very good to these two girls, but after all, she is a rural person, and she doesn't realize that reading is the only way for most rural people to turn over.

Even if Zhang Ze himself hadn't experienced the 21st century, he would not have realized the role of reading.

Originally, he wanted to refute his mother, but then he thought that now that the wind of opening up has blown, there will be earth-shaking changes in the delivery of goods to households next year, whether in the countryside or in the county.

At that time, it would be easier to persuade, so I changed my words: "Then let's do it, I sell fish now, and sometimes I have to be literate when I go to the county seat to do something." ”

"I'll buy some books to study by myself, Ah Qian and Ah Qing will follow me to learn by themselves first, and we'll talk about it later."

"Tomorrow I'll go to the scrapyard and pick up some books, and buy some exercise books and pens that won't cost a lot of money."

These words made Zhang's mother hesitate, and seeing that the two daughters were looking at her with expectant eyes, she couldn't help but smile and pinch the smooth faces of the two daughters: "Okay, you can follow your brother to learn by yourself." ”

"Great, thank you, Mom!" The two girls happily hugged their mother.

Only Zhang Wu stood next to him and smirked inexplicably, after all, he was born in a special era, and none of the friends around him went to study, so he didn't understand the meaning of reading.

"Okay, okay, how old a girl is and she's still so clingy, mom will boil oil residue for you." Zhang Huihong patted the two daughters on the back, then let go of them and began to deal with the plate oil.

"Mom, I'll help you light the fire." Zhang Qian took the initiative to help, and Zhang Qing also followed behind.

Zhang Ze sat on a stool to rest, and after eating, he had to sleep in the afternoon, recuperate and continue fishing at night.

Zhang Wu was crazy for meat, so he would stand by the stove, staring at the plate oil and swallowing his saliva.

"Look at your gluttony, wait for the oil residue to be ready and give you the first taste." Zhang Huihong was cutting oil, and when she saw him like this, she couldn't help but reach out and tapped his forehead and teased, leaving a mimeograph.

"Thank you, Mom!" Zhang Wu smirked.

Cut the oil into small pieces, blanch it to remove the fishy smell, and then put it in a pot to refine the oil.

made money, the family is full of little gluttonous insects, and Zhang Huihong is also very quick to work.

After a while, there was a constant "zizi" sound in the oil pan, and more and more plate oil was fried until golden brown and floated on top of the oil.

The aroma also filled the air, refreshing the heart, and the rich aroma of pork soon spread out of the house.

Even if the doors and windows are closed, the smell cannot be stopped, and many of them are drifting down the chimney.

"It's not a New Year's holiday, who boils lard?"

Some neighbors curiously went out of the house to trace the source of the smell, only to find that it was from Zhang Ze's family, which surprised them.

"How can their family have the money to buy pork, this day is over?"

"Today I saw Zhang Ze coming back with a lot of things on his back, did he go to the town to buy it?"

"How can their family have the money to buy it? And the pork asks for tickets, where do they get tickets from? ”

Just when a group of people were discussing, the door of Zhang's house suddenly opened, and Zhang Huihong came out with a small bowl containing freshly fried oil residue.

"Yo, Alain, Atsui, you're all here, I just wanted to go to your house!"

"Come, come, you divide the oil residue. Aze caught a fish yesterday, and his uncle likes to eat fish, so I asked him to send it over. ”

"How could he have thought that his uncle felt sorry for a few children, and knew that they hadn't eaten meat for a long time, so he asked Aze to bring some meat back."

"Usually you take care of me, but this year you got some grease, you quickly take it to the children to taste."

When everyone heard this, they all suddenly realized that it was the meat given by Zhang Ze's uncle, so it was not surprising.

They all know the situation of the Zhang family, and the two uncles are really good to their family.

The neighbors shirked it, but in fact they were all greedy for this small bowl of oil residue, after all, everyone was having a hard time, and there was no oil and water in their stomachs.

In the end, each family was divided into a little, purely to satisfy the children's hunger.

In fact, Zhang Huihong is quite reluctant to give these oil residues, the relationship between the neighbors is really good, but usually some good things will not be given to their children, which is still requested by Zhang Ze.

He knows very well that the next life at home will get better and better, so in order not to arouse the eyes of others, he secretly reported it to you, so he could only take something to build a good relationship, and it would be used as hush money.

As for the uncle, he used the uncle as an excuse to sell fish before, and it is nothing to continue to use it, the big deal is to change the uncle next time, but others don't know the specific situation of his two uncles.

As for the excuse that is different from Zhang Ze's perfunctory behavior when he first returned to the village, what does it matter, anyway, don't let people know that it is money from selling fish.

"Brother, you bought all the meat, you were the first to eat it!" At the dinner table in the house, Zhang Wu flattered Zhang Ze with a piece of braised pork, and he swallowed his saliva greedily.

"Yo, Ah Wu is so sensible today!" Zhang Ze teased, and then picked up the meat.

Seeing that his younger brother's eyes had been fixed on the meat he had picked up, his evil taste suddenly rose.

Don't look at his mental age of dozens of years, but a man is a teenager until he dies, and he is an old child when he is old.

Not to mention that his body is younger after being reborn, which also makes him a lot younger.

"For the sake of my brother being so well-behaved and sensible, this first piece of meat is for you to eat today."

"Really?"

Zhang Wu's eyes lit up, and when he saw that his eldest brother sent the meat directly to his mouth, he couldn't control it for a long time, so he opened his mouth and bit it, but he bit it empty.

Then he watched the meat being eaten by his own brother.

"Poof~" Seeing that his younger brother looked like he had lost his soul, Zhang Qian and Zhang Qing immediately laughed.

At this time, Zhang Huihong also finished dividing the oil residue, and when she walked into the house and saw her two daughters smiling so happily, she couldn't help asking, "What are you laughing at?" ”

Before the two girls could answer, Zhang Wu complained with a sad face: "Mom, brother, he is playing ...... me"

Zhang Huihong couldn't cry or laugh after understanding the situation, and slapped him lightly on the back of the head: "Okay, a large plate of braised pork and a large plate of oil residue are not enough for you to eat?" ”
