Chapter 22: Bringing Brothers and Sisters into the City
It was another morning full of harvest, Luo Xueyun was in a happy mood, and bought two catties of pork for the eldest sister to clean up.
"Come to the house, boy."
Luo Lao Niang beckoned mysteriously and asked Luo Xueyun to go to the Westinghouse with him.
"What's the matter?"
"Good boy, you've been selling vegetables for almost two months, how much money have you made."
Luo Xueyun frowned imperceptibly: "Mother, who asked you to ask?" ”
"No one." Luo Lao Niang hurriedly waved her hand and said, "It's not that you just got a tractor driver's license, two chickens, fish, meat and eggs in three days, thinking that if you have a family fund, my mother will ask someone to tell you about your daughter-in-law." ”
"Don't, if I suffer the whole Qiao Yuan pit again, I won't be alive."
"How can you, your waist is hard now, the woman should listen to you, good girl, tell my mother."
Luo Xueyun looked at the old lady and said with a smile: "The little cabbage is four quarters and three pounds, I want to give the labor money for selling vegetables in the city, the fuel fee for tractor rental, and I also have to buy vegetable seeds, meat and eggs for my younger brothers and sisters to grow their bodies, mother, how much do you think you can leave behind?" ”
Luo Lao Niang was stunned: "By the way, you still pay Shuguo their wages, I'm afraid that you really won't be able to work in vain." ”
"How can it be a busy work in vain, I didn't see my younger brothers and sisters grow taller, do the eldest sisters and second sisters have meat on their faces, does it make sense to keep the money?"
"That's right."
As soon as he saw Luo Xueyun leaving, Luo Xuefeng approached the house, asked the old lady, and then reported back to his daughter-in-law.
"My mother said that the second child's money was spent, and she didn't save much money."
Huang Xiu scolded after hearing this: "What I asked you to inquire about is how much money you can make from selling vegetables, not to ask him how much money Luo Lao Er has saved." ”
Luo Xuefeng said aggrievedly: "My mother asked, what can he do if he doesn't say anything." ”
"Stupid."
Huang Xiu didn't know who he scolded, and suddenly his eyes rolled and said: "Isn't he going to bring a few branches into the city the day after tomorrow, I listen to the movement, I have to go, you can take advantage of no one at home to touch the head of the bed in the east house." ”
The largest cash currency value in circulation in this year is ten yuan, most of which are gross tickets of yuan jiaofen, there are a lot of them, it is impossible to carry them all on the body, not afraid of people stealing, and not afraid of work?
Also, those who do business are all money, can they not keep accounts?
Therefore, Huang Xiu felt that as long as he went to Luo Xueyun's bed and rummaged through it, whether it was finding the account book or the money he hid, he could guess how much he earned.
Luo Xuefeng felt reasonable, so he pressed the impetuosity and waited patiently for the opportunity.
On Sunday, Luo Xueyun took Lian Cai on a tractor and went to the county seat as agreed.
The eldest sister, the second sister, and the younger sister are all very fresh, wearing their cleanest clothes, and they are dressed up fresh and bright.
On the way, Luo Xuelei screamed again and again, and when he met his partner who got up early in the village, he couldn't wait to take his hand and let him go into the city with him.
"Second brother, take us into the city to play."
Luo Xueyun was so angry that he increased the throttle and scolded: "If you want to do this again, I won't take you next time." ”
In the county town of Chenqing in 83 years, it can be said that it is lackluster, and the streets are full of pedestrians, not to mention cars, and even motorcycles and bicycles are very few.
There are no towering buildings, no shopping malls with no people, and no amusement rides.
There are only quaint and old streets, muddy moats, and dilapidated Warring States hometowns.
Rao is like this, the brothers and sisters are very happy, seeing the pedestrians wearing really good clothes feel trendy, seeing the side three wheels running by, will feel envious.
Luo Xueyun was not stingy, not only took them to the state-run restaurant for a serious meal, but also was willing to tear fabrics for them to make clothes.
Candy, instant noodles, duck, soft drinks...... He was willing to pay for all kinds of things in the times, which caused the eldest sister to complain about his extravagance.
But shopping, you have to eat, drink, and take a walk, otherwise it will become a road.
Luo Xueyun was sighing with emotion, and suddenly saw the signboard of a store in front of him, and his eyes suddenly lit up, and he came to life.
"Let's go, let's go take pictures."
The eldest sister was taken aback: "I don't have a certificate, what kind of photo do you take, it's quite expensive." ”
Luo Xueyun looked at his younger brother and sister's eager expression, patted his chest and said, "Your brother picked it up." ”
Each person takes a photo individually, takes a group photo, pays for it, and makes an appointment to pick it up.
Except for the photo studio, the eldest sister couldn't help but blush with joy.
Photographs leave memories of the times, and some money is nothing compared to them.
I had a lot of fun in the morning, and when I got home, my younger brothers couldn't stop talking about it, saying that they would go in the future.
And the fact that Luo Xueyun took his younger brothers and sisters into the city also reached the ears of many Huanggang villagers, especially those who lived next to the road.
At most, the adults laughed and laughed, but the children were very envious, and they wished that their brother was Luo Xueyun.
"Second guy, have you entered the city?"
Walking to Shangluopo, a group of children came around, large and small radish heads, all of whom were children surnamed Luo.
Luo Xueyun reached into the cloth bag on his back, grabbed a large handful of sugar, regardless of hard candy and soft candy, and gave it to the children.
"No classes today?"
"Sunday, two." The leader of the lock shouted.
His big name is Luo Zongwei, he is nine years old this year, in the third or fourth grade, Luo Xueyun remembers that he is the grandson of the uncle's family, and he has a younger brother Luo Zongbing, whose nickname is Key(Yue), who is following him.
Suo'er picked up his hand and took the candy, and gave a piece to each of the friends behind him.
"Second guy, give me some more toffee, and we can eat a piece of hard candy gummy toffee by ourselves."
As the oldest child of the Zongzi generation, Suo'er does have the demeanor of Naiye, not partial, not timid, Luo Xueyun nodded secretly, and said with a smile while bringing them candy: "I dare you are here to rob the second guy." ”
In rural areas, uncles and uncles have the same meaning, all refer to the father's peers, brothers, cousins, brothers, brothers, etc.
Luo Xueyun's grandfather did not have many cousins in his generation, only seven, so they were ranked from oldest to youngest according to their age, and those who were older than their father were called uncles, and those younger than their fathers were called uncles.
In Luo's father's generation, there are not only cousins of the same grandfather living in Shangluopo, but also a grandfather's brother, with a large number of people and a long relationship.
So as soon as others hear the title, they know that your uncle and nephew are at least not your own uncle and nephew.
The children laughed, and Suo'er didn't hide his selfishness, and said bluntly: "Second guy, we also want to go into the city, and you can bring us with you next Sunday." ”
Luo Xueyun said with a straight face: "There are a lot of abducted children outside, I can't take care of you." ”
Suo'er's eyes rolled: "Second guy, if you want to take us into the city, I will tell you a secret." ”
Luo Xuelei shouted: "After eating so much sugar, you have to take an inch." ”
"Three guys, you've had fun by yourself, you can't stop us."
Luo Xueyun said: "You just have ten secrets, and I can't take you with me, if something happens, how can I explain it to you." ”
He pinched Suo'er's shoulder and said, "Look at your thin arms, the wind will blow down, I'm afraid the tractor won't be able to sit steadily." ”
Seeing that Luo Xueyun and the others were leaving, Suo'er couldn't hold back and shouted: "Second guy, I'll tell you, tell you." ”
The Luo Xueyun brothers laughed.
"Tell me, what a secret."
Suo'er looked left and right, and said: "I heard that the second guy brought people into the city today, and ran to the house to catch up, but I didn't expect to see the big guy kneeling in the hall, and the uncle knocked him with a bamboo stick......"
Luo Xueyun glanced at each other a few times, and they all felt incredible.
The big guy in Suo'er's mouth is Luo Xuefeng, and the uncle is Daddy Luo Shihe.
But who in the family doesn't know that Luo Xuefeng made a mistake, and the most his father could do was to scold two sentences and bubbles, which time could he really start?
Even if you want to start, it is impossible for any old lady to fall down.
"Really hit or scared?" Luo Xueyun asked.
"Smack, it's really hit." The lock is exaggerated.
Luo Xueyun said with a smile: "I know, if you want to eat candy in the future, you will come to the second guy." ”
