Li Yanying looked at the cigarette in her hand in a daze, not knowing what to do.

Song Lin, who happened to be resting in the house, heard the movement and walked out, only to see Li Yanying holding a red plum cigarette in his hand, and asked, "Who came just now?" ”

Li Yanying said what happened just now, and Song Lin pondered for a moment and said, "It's not a big deal, just say it, why do you want to send this cigarette?" ”

"That's what I thought, kid...... Didn't give me a chance to say no. ”

Thinking of the situation just now, Li Yanying didn't know what to say.

Meng Chuntao came up and stuffed Li Yanying with a cigarette, which frightened her, thinking that she had something very tricky for her to do.

As a result, I waited for a long time, and the condition for waiting was to take care of Xia Yumei a little.

Li Yanying doesn't know whether Meng Chuntao is really stupid or fake, two or three packs of cigarettes are enough to implement a job this year, and now she is asked to take this whole thing, she is strange in her heart.

"Why don't I change my mind that I see this kid and I'll return the cigarette? This child is only a teenager, and he blames the sensible and knows that he feels sorry for his mother. Li Yanying looked at Song Lin and couldn't make up her mind.

Song Lin shook his head, "This kid has an idea, I guess she won't want it if you go back, so just take it." I remember that your distant cousin's son was a chef in a newly opened foreign-related restaurant, so they should have asked for fish over there, right? I remember she saying she was selling fish. ”

"I'll have to ask about this, and if they don't have a stable supply channel, I'll look for this kid. I guess she is willing, but it's a little far away, and the foreign-related hotel is in the provincial capital! Li Yanying said.

"You ask first, and then you can find out Comrade Xiao Meng's tone, and if you can't contact her, go to Comrade Xia Yumei." Song Lin made the final decision and didn't say anything more.

Before going out to work, Song Lin also opened a cigarette given by Meng Chuntao, took out a pack of cigarettes and put it in the pocket on his left chest, squinted and hummed a small song and walked away.

After Meng Chuntao left the sock factory, she rode her bicycle around the county, and asked passers-by how to get to the provincial capital, otherwise it would be bad for her to catch her blind tomorrow.

After touching the surrounding terrain, Meng Chuntao remembered the way and went back directly.

When Meng Chuntao returned home, she first lit a fire to cook, and after living here for a few days, she was already proficient in using the stove.

Not long after the meal was cooked, I saw Meng Guoqiang coming back from the field with a shovel.

To Meng Chuntao's surprise, Wang Dayu was able to coexist peacefully with Meng Guoqiang, and even helped Meng Guoqiang get things.

You must know that Meng Guoqiang's previous attitude towards Wang Dayu was very bad, and his senses were not good, and he often persuaded Meng Chuntao to keep his distance from him.

But now, Meng Guoqiang himself has gone against his original idea.

The two entered the house together, and Wang Dayu also greeted Meng Chuntao, but Meng Chuntao ignored him.

Wang Dayu laughed wryly, said hello to Meng Guoqiang, and turned to leave.

Meng Chuntao sat and waited for Meng Guoqiang's explanation, but seeing that Meng Guoqiang had drunk a large glass of cold boiled water, he didn't have any intention of explaining, so he couldn't help but ask the question first.

Meng Guoqiang glanced at her unhurriedly, "What else can be the reason?" Meaningful! But I don't care what he's trying to do, I'm sure I don't have anything for him. But if he wants to help me work, then I must give a good face, or I will pick a son after a while, then I will not be more busy? ”

Zhou Yu beat Huang Gai, one is willing to fight and the other is willing to suffer, and Meng Chuntao has nothing to say.

After she waited for Meng Guoqiang to rest, she told Xia Yumei about it from beginning to end.

Meng Guoqiang was silent for a long time after listening, and finally only said: "She is your mother in the end, if you are really in trouble, you should help, I believe you have a sense of proportion." ”

The two didn't talk much about this topic, but more about going to the provincial capital tomorrow, and at the same time gave Meng Guoqiang more than 150 yuan to buy eels.

At the very least, it will save him time, although he will earn less, but he does not need to waste a lot of energy.

After all, Meng Guoqiang is already in the age of sixties, and it is not good to always be immersed in water and fish, and his body is easy to bear.

Anyway, you can't make enough money, you always have to give others a chance.

Meng Chuntao said this idea, Meng Guoqiang was not very happy, thinking that his body was still strong, and he would do it by himself if he could.

Meng Chuntao doesn't think so, a person's strength is limited, Meng Guoqiang grabbed so many days to get together a total of thirty catties.

It's better to let the people in the village help catch it, at least she can go out and sell it every day, it's better than buying it once and resting at home for many days.

Meng Guoqiang was persuaded by Meng Chuntao's reason, and immediately finished dinner quickly, grabbed some money, put it in his pocket and walked out. He wanted to take advantage of the fact that everyone in the village was chatting at the door, and released the news that he was going to collect eels.

Meng Chuntao thought that he would not be able to receive anything at night, but he didn't expect that when Meng Guoqiang came back, he really collected about 20 catties of eels.

"Little Peach, you're still right, it's faster to buy eels than I can catch them alone. If there is anything in the future, I will still listen to you! ”

After arriving home, Meng Guoqiang first put the eel in a large water tank dedicated to raising eels, and drank a large glass of water.

He wandered around the village for a long time and talked for a long time, but he died of thirst.

Meng Chuntao looked at the collected eels, all of them were as thick as Meng Guoqiang's thumb, she couldn't help but give Meng Guoqiang a thumbs up, and said with a smile: "Grandpa, you are still efficient, you will collect more than 20 catties in a while, how much do you collect?" ”

"Seven cents a pound, this is much more expensive than the ordinary fish you sell, I can't feel sorry. These twenty-two catties cost me 15 yuan 4, which must be sold, otherwise it will be a great loss to smash my hands. "Meng Guoqiang is chattering, but he is distressed.

This money was all saved by Meng Chuntao, he went out to catch fish before dawn, Meng Chuntao was busy behind him, and then pushed the cart to the county seat by himself.

The soles of his feet have come out of the blood blisters, and he has cut wormwood from the reed leaves, and his hands have been a lot rougher these days.

This kind of suffering is not something that ordinary people can bear, and Meng Guoqiang feels distressed when he thinks about it.

"It's okay, it should be sold, don't you still believe my granddaughter? Just wait for me to come back and take you to a big meal! Meng Chuntao swore a promise, and her face was full of confidence.

Eel can replenish qi and blood, liver and kidneys, people who know it know that it is good, just the purchase price of seven cents a catty, it is several times ahead of other fish.

Meng Chuntao sells fish in the county, even if the highest is only two cents and three catties, which is equivalent to selling three catties of fish is not enough for one catty of eel to buy.

The two talked for a long time, until Meng Chuntao began to yawn, then stopped talking and went to rest.
