Chapter 43 Going Home and Lonely, Apple's Business Opportunity

Shu Lan listened carefully to Cai Yufen's words, recalling Huo Beichen's appearance, which was really the case.

Every time I see him, I always stand alone next to the horizontal bar, or I am in a daze at the mountains, and I don't see him smoking, drinking, and playing cards.

People in this era are somewhat machismo, and Huo Beichen is still a soldier, so the money and blood in his hands are more vigorous than ordinary workers.

But he goes home on time every day to cook, and often has to clean up the house and tidy up the wardrobe.

Life is like a little daughter-in-law in the field.

Thinking about this, Shu Lan unconsciously pulled up a smile at the corner of her mouth, her heart was warm, and the whole person seemed to be in the clouds.

Cai Yufen said goodbye to Shu Lan at the fork in the road: "Beichen and you are both good children, have a good time!" โ€

Shu Lan nodded with a smile: "Okay, Grandma Cai is careful on the road." โ€

Cai Yufen waved her hand to let Shu Lan leave: "You go back quickly after you finish shopping, don't catch a cold outside!" โ€

After sending Cai Yufen away, Shu Lan came to a supply and marketing cooperative according to the memory of the original owner.

There was a thick curtain outside, a stove was born inside, and the heat in the kettle was bubbling, and as soon as she entered, Shu Lan felt that her face was suddenly covered with a layer of mist.

I didn't wear glasses, otherwise, I would have become a little blind person.

Shu Lan rubbed her hands and watched, and a kind middle-aged elder sister came over to greet her: "Comrade, do you want to buy some?" โ€

"Are there apples?" Shu Lan knew that materials were scarce at this time, and it was impossible to buy durian strawberries, but there was no shortage of apples.

We have a lot of land and resources, and there are a lot of apples!

The middle-aged eldest sister smiled and nodded: "Yes!" In the cellar at the back, I'll move it for you, how much do you want? โ€

Shu Lan was asked all of a sudden, and the current world is all about looking at which one is pleasing to the eye and which one to buy, now, it's hard to say.

"Five?" Shu Lan spoke cautiously, she didn't have any concept of catties.

In this world, the food is delivered directly to the door, just do it!

The middle-aged eldest sister looked at Shu Lan and smiled, this girl was buying it for the first time at first glance, she was really like her own silly girl, she didn't understand.

"The apple is small, I'll give you more, you can see if you can buy it or not."

The middle-aged eldest sister was very kind, and she spoke as if she was her own child, which made Shu Lan feel warm, and she smiled and nodded: "Okay, trouble eldest sister." โ€

The middle-aged eldest sister looked at Shu Lan very kindly, and responded with a smile: "It's not troublesome, if you buy it, you can sell it!" Just call me Sister Hu! โ€

Shu Lan's eyebrows curled: "Hmm! Trouble Sister Hu! โ€

Hu Meili smiled and opened the curtain to get apples for Shu Lan, Shu Lan smiled at the corner of her mouth, her eyes were full of novelty, this place is really different.

I've been here for a while, and Shu Lan feels different when she looks at the glass cabinets and the vertical windows.

In the past, these were all things that existed in TV dramas, but now Lili is appearing in front of his eyes, and the era when he couldn't speak in the past is now evolving vigorously.

Shu Lan felt that this era was not as collapsed as it was at the beginning, she thought that she would be hungry three times a day, plus a group of garbage to fight in the ring.

I didn't think about it, but it's not bad now.

She has no golden fingers, no space, and no cooking and medical skills like the heroines of those period dramas, only a brain that is more attentive than ordinary people.

In this era, Shulan is not prominent, but she is not numb to follow the trend without assertiveness.

Shu Lan thinks about her future, and her initial ambition has been exhausted in repeated rejections.

Now there is only calm and even a hint of depression.

His pride and ambition are not accepted in this strange era, so he still has to live.

Shu Lan took a deep breath and encouraged herself, which writer is not a down-and-out writer in the early stage, maybe he is one of them!

Late bloomer!

She decided in her heart that Hu Meili happened to come out with a basket of apples, looking at each other, and the two looked at each other with a smile.

Shu Lan bought everything that Hu Meili proposed, a total of three catties, and one catty was eight cents.

The money in his hand is not the eighteen given by Huo Beichen last time, and the remaining twenty are all earned by Shu Lan as a temporary worker during this time.

Walking on the road, Shu Lan looked at the dime in his hand, and the ambition just now was polished again.

It is said that a penny is difficult for a hero, which is true!

Shu Lan reached out and touched the apple in the net pocket, looked at the snow on the ground and sighed, how can I make money!

The temporary worker in the canteen can't do it, and now the newspaper office still refuses to write the article, so she has no confidence now.

Shu Lan looked at the blue sky and wrinkled her eyebrows, this day is really... It's hard to put into words.

When the time comes, a divorce.

Boy!

Shu Lan's head hurts, and she is really at the end of her rope.

Walking to the corner of the alley, Shu Lan looked at the uncle who was setting up a stall selling sweet potatoes over there, his eyes lit up, in this weather, a sweet potato is a lifesaver!

Shu Lan walked over with the apple, and her steps were brisk.

The uncle looked at the people who were rushing towards him, and the smile on his face was hotter than the sweet potato.

An iron stove, which is full of sweet potatoes, Shu Lan looked at the familiar equipment with joy in her eyes, and her favorite thing when she was a child was to sell sweet potatoes with her grandfather.

The uncle in front of him looked at Shu Lan with a loving face, and said, "Little girl, how many to buy?" โ€

"Two!" Shu Lan's eyes lit up.

The uncle opened the lid on his head, and suddenly the heat turned into white mist and rushed into the eyes of the two, Shu Lan felt this warm current, comfortable!

One sweet potato is a catty, a catty is six cents, and two cost a piece of five.

"Take it! These two are big! If you can't finish eating, you can warm it on the stove and bake it dry, which is just as delicious. โ€

The uncle who sold sweet potatoes explained, and Shu Lan listened very carefully.

"Uncle, do you sell sweet potatoes every day?"

"No, I come every other day, but these days I come out every day, and everyone wants to eat something hot when it snows, and this thing can also warm your hands." The uncle chatted with Shu Lan while adding charcoal to the fire.

This is the seasonal thing at this time, and it will be made in these days.

Shu Lan held the sweet potato to warm her hands, and suddenly thought of something.

"Uncle, do you have a business license to sell sweet potatoes?"

The uncle looked at Shu Lan with some shock: "What? โ€

"Business license?" Shu Lan repeated those four words earnestly.

The uncle covered the lid, pursed his lips and took a breath: "This small business, if you don't do it day by day, the Industrial and Commercial Bureau is too lazy to look at you." โ€

Shu Lan looked at the uncle thoughtfully, in this era, everyone is indeed not very aware of the business license, understand.

It's still troublesome to get a certificate and run around!

"Uncle, then I'll go first, your sweet potatoes are so fragrant! Good luck with all the best of luck today! Call it a day early and go home! Shu Lan's praise is simple and real, which makes the uncle quack.

Shu Lan went home with a net of apples, and there was nothing to do when she went to the military region in the afternoon, so she might as well go home.

Anywhere is not as comfortable as your own home.

The coal stove at home has long been extinguished, and Shu Lan is familiar with the road this time, which is much more skilled and safe than the first time.

As soon as the straw mat and honeycomb coal were lit, the stove was ready, and the kettle was made, Shulan looked at his masterpiece with satisfaction.

Now I am becoming more and more proficient in life skills.

When she came to the kitchen, Shu Lan took out her tools, and the flour on the board was scabbed, and the whole room was deserted.

Shu Lan thought a little lonely, it wasn't like this when Huo Beichen was there before.

Turning his head to look at the living room, it was empty.

Shu Lan washed the apples directly with cold water, and there was a stinging pain in his hands, but he still washed it like that, and the hot water was a little troublesome.

Wash the three apples, cut the cross on the board, remove the core with a spoon, take out the steel pot, and put two pairs of chopsticks on the top to make a simple steamer.

Put the apples on a plate and steam them.

Hot steamed apples not only clear away heat and detoxify, but also beautify and nourish the skin.

Shulan settled the kitchen pot and wiped down the kitchen tabletop briefly, this place to eat must not fall dust.

The living room is still so tidy, it was cleaned up by Huo Beichen when he left.

Looking at the neat bedding on the small marching bed, Shu Lan thought of the silent man.

I don't know what happened to this man on the mountain!

Choosing such a time for a big competition is really a tempering of will.

Shu Lan looked at this house, and suddenly felt quite reluctant, if she got divorced, it would be difficult for her to continue to stay here.

One afternoon, Shu Lan leaned on the wooden chair in the living room and thought about life, and her eyes were full of hungry manuscripts that made her silent.

In the evening, Shu Lan came over with steamed apples and boiled millet porridge, and Zhang Cuifang chatted with other patients in the ward.

The old lady on the next bed chatted excitedly: "Your daughter is so handsome, and so is your uncle, I see that if the two of them have a baby in the future, it will be good-looking, and they will definitely be future movie stars!" โ€

Old ladies like to watch movies, especially romance movies.

Zhang Cuifang looked at her with a smile: "Those two children are really good-looking, and they will be good-looking in the future!" โ€

The old lady became more and more energetic, "Then it's time to marry my great-grandson!" โ€

Shu Lan came in and happened to hear it, getting married?

The old lady smiled even deeper when she saw Shu Lan: "Ah! Here, girl, come and sit! โ€

Shu Lan looked at such an enthusiastic crowd, and was a little at a loss, and her hands holding the thermos bucket trembled.

The old lady's eyes lit up when she looked at the steamed apple in front of Zhang Cuifang, and she couldn't help but speak.

"Ahh It smells so good! This is what I loved most when I was younger, beauty! โ€

Shu Lan looked at the old lady, with a rich and noble face, and spoke with a Shanghai market atmosphere, smacking.

The whole person has a very high level!

Shu Lan smiled and gave her half of the apple, and the old lady was shocked: "Ah! How embarrassing is this! โ€

"It's okay, make it yourself, grandma try it, give some advice."

Shu Lan did a lot and gave some to another relative in the ward.

These are all living together, it is very important to take care of each other and build a good relationship, Zhang Cuifang is happy to see Shu Lan so socially competent.

I feel that Shulan has really grown.

After eating, Shu Lan chatted with Zhang Cuifang, and the old lady in the next bed was full of praise after eating Shu Lan's steamed apples!

"You're amazing! By the way, do you know how to make snacks? The old lady looked at Shu Lan expectantly.

Shu Lan smiled: "It will be a little, but it is just simple, not complicated." โ€

"That's easy, would you like to learn from me?" The old lady looked at Shu Lan with an excited face, she didn't want to bury her craft, if someone could inherit it.

But that's a good thing!
