Long years (64)

During the first five days of the Spring Festival in 1990, none of the family went back to town.

I have to go back on the sixth day of the Lunar New Year.

A few years ago, the third child said that he wanted to do some work for him and that he wanted to take off his mourning clothes for his mother. It was a filial piety.

No one was competing for this, and it was Lao San who wanted to make up for his regrets. So Lao San took charge of the matter.

Today's third child is not the third child half a year ago. They say they laugh at poverty but not at prostitution, and that's true. As long as you have money, the bullshit things in the past won't matter.

When people talk about it, they will always say, no matter how many years that kid has been in jail, he still has a way of making money when he comes out.

One white covering up a thousand ugliness.

The whole banquet is a big dish, which means it is perfect. They are all hard dishes.

I tied up these things with paper and pulled several carts.

Some people say that Lao San’s is called Shaobao!

The boss told people: "If you have two pieces of bad money, you will feel great!"

By leaving this matter alone, he has made another mistake, and the money has become bad money?

But anyway, things were done well. It was quite bright.

Probably because the father took off his clothes last time and the mother was in trouble, this time the mother took off her clothes and the couple came early with their children.

After paying the gift money of twenty yuan, he asked the third child again: "Did you share the money for the coffin with the second brother and the fourth brother?"

In front of so many people!

He Xiaowan passed by and said, "Whether we give it to you or not is the business of our three families. What does it have to do with you?"

The tone is not very good.

Jin Laowu answered, "If I give it, then the second brother and the fourth brother will have to give me the gift money. When I was doing something, they said they had made a coffin, so they didn't give me the gift money..."

The third child took out a hundred and handed it over, "Okay! I'll make it up for you, let's go!"

Lao Wu took it and handed it to Ma Xiaoting directly, "Keep it."

The third child looked at the empty hands and laughed, this damn fifth child is really in need of cleaning up! If Mom were not doing things by herself today, she would have to teach this impersonal thing a lesson.

What I just asked was bullshit. Do I need to ask this?

What do you want to do by giving the money for the coffin to the second brother and the fourth brother? When you took out the money, it was not money, but love. If you return the money yourself, the love will be returned. Really give it to this

Money, second brother dares to kick himself out.

This is the first time I have seen Lao Wu since I entered and six months since I came back.

My brother who was a bit greedy, honest and heartless has disappeared and turned into this person whom I barely recognize.

When I handed over the hundred yuan and received it over there, it felt like that. Is the friendship between brothers worth this price?

From the beginning to the end, the second and fourth masters did not look back. They were still greeting the people on the other side, as if they did not hear the voices on the other side.

When Lin Yutong and Fourth Master came back, many people gathered around and asked, "The county town has indeed developed very fast in the past two years. Are there any opportunities in the county town?"

The fourth master never talks very fully, he only talks about taking good care of the orchard, building a juice factory here, etc. Jin Mancheng said from the side: "What is the most profitable nowadays is transportation.

Money, hard work is hard work, but don’t talk about this number after a trip." He stretched out a finger. Someone said a hundred? He scoffed, "A hundred? A hundred no one goes. At least a thousand after a trip... better

Merchants who came to pick up goods couldn't find a car, so they gave the driver red envelopes and wanted to take away their goods first..."

It was as if he knew very clearly. As soon as he spoke, Fourth Master stopped talking and whispered other things to others.

But Jin Mancheng's words still made the people who heard them excited. But everyone knows that this money is easy to make, but this investment is not something ordinary people can afford. First of all, you must have a car. What is the price of a big truck? Who can afford it?

Yo?

But there is never a shortage of brave people in the world.

After the family affairs were finished, and before the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, many people with whom Murakami had good relationships in the past came. One was to pay New Year greetings, and the other was to inquire about some things.

What's the matter? Buying a car.

These people formed a partnership in twos and threes, borrowed money from the foundation at high interest rates, and asked the Fourth Master about the market conditions for buying a car and where to buy a car.

Lin Yutong was listening on the side, and there were several tables of people. They would have to buy seven or eight cars together, right?

I also asked Mr. Fourth if there was any way to buy a second-hand car. This car runs short distances, so it doesn’t hinder anything. It’s just for selling goods.

"Your brother-in-law was not in the army before, so can he buy used cars that have been retired by the army?"

How do you ask someone to say this?

The army's things are not sold casually. The obsolete things are also sealed up. These things are all military supplies in wartime. Don't look at the current armaments, you have to calculate those that can still serve, but are not

Sealed supplies. These are treasures.

Besides, if the military's cars were not used during war, they should be the best-maintained cars.

Where to get it.

Fourth Master told them this, "If it's a passenger car, you can find a second-hand one. My brother-in-law is now in a travel agency, and the station wagons that pick up and drop off foreign tourists are often replaced when they are 70 to 80% new. This car can be used

Let’s buy one or two.”

You can definitely find a truck like this second-hand, but no one who doesn’t know anything about cars knows the true condition of the truck. It would cause a lot of trouble for someone if it breaks down halfway after buying it.

This is not unreasonable.

After that, the fourth master introduced the place, and called the two people at the mineral water office in the provincial capital, asking them to receive him, help him look at the car, and not interfere with anything else.

But to be honest, there are always losses and profits in everything you do, and there is no such thing as being 100% sure. Unless you are working in a stable job and hanging around until death.

The only gratifying thing is that people are really brave and dare to try to go out and make money.

After the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, I went to work, and Zhou Yang came. The county must listen to his opinions on the construction of the campus, and he will be here during this period. People are still living in the government guest house as before.

"My sister-in-law would like you to come over?" Lin Yutong invited him to her home for dinner, and she couldn't help but talk about it during the chat. From the provincial capital to the county town, it is really difficult for ordinary people to figure it out.

"I'll tell you about the current situation of school teachers and you will know." He took the braised chicken feet and said while eating: "There are no scientific research funds! That is, teachers can get funding from you. There are no welfare benefits! The house is still there

It seems that there is no possibility of relocating Tongzi Building in the short term. You know that place. The boss will give you cold medicine as soon as you cough. You don’t dare to speak loudly. After living here for so many years, what do you think...

?My parents live with us, and my daughter is older. It’s only 40 square meters, so how can we squeeze it in. In the past, the children were small, so it was fine. Now the children are older, and it’s a girl’s house... Here, the reason why I am tempted

The dormitory buildings are being built at the same time, and the area is quite large. The smallest ones are 100 square meters in size. As for me, if I can get an area of ​​134 square meters, I think it’s good. Besides, the development here is good.

Life will be easier than in the provincial capital. Again, I would rather have the head of a chicken than the tail of a phoenix. Here I keep my word. In addition, there is nothing to lose in the provincial capital. The house is still my house, and I really want it in the future.

When dividing the distribution, it is impossible to miss my share. I am the head of the branch, and my importance is not the same. It doesn’t depend on the teacher’s face, and my share will not be missed. You calculate this account, no matter how you calculate it

, I made all the money.”

Lin Yutong nodded, that was the truth, "If the teacher hears this, he will kill you. I have taught two students, but no one is willing to do research with him."

Zhou Yang sighed: "Think about it, I feel sorry for the teacher."

The two of them chatted without a word, and after dinner, they were expecting the fourth master to come back. Unexpectedly, the fourth master didn't wait, and instead he met an unexpected person.

It turns out that he is the son of Aunt Song who lives across the door.

Growing up in an alley, it was appropriate to call me brother, "Why are you here?" It was already dark.

The old man then spoke: "Tong, go back to town quickly. Something big has happened to your family."

Who?

"My second brother or my sister?" Lin Yutong was startled, turned around and touched the phone to call Fourth Master.

This one gasped: "Absolutely. It's quite troublesome anyway."

What does this say?

But she knew that if she tried to ask again, she might not be able to get anything out of her. The second son of the old Song family had been very sick since he was a child.

He speaks in a mumbling manner, but never speaks clearly.

Lin Yutong called Fourth Master, and Zhou Yang couldn't stay any longer. He stood up and left: "If there is anything you can do to help, just use your words."

Lin Yutong responded, "You know your home phone number. We will contact you by phone later."

After sending Zhou Yang away, Lin Yutong changed his clothes, and the fourth master came back over there.

Lin Yutong called Brother Song up and got into the car together. He didn't want a driver to take him with him. Fourth Master drove the car himself.

"What's going on?" Fourth Master turned his face and asked Second Brother Song, "Something happened to my Second Brother's family?"

"Yeah!" This person stammered, "Your fifth daughter-in-law left the child at your second brother's house, and then he disappeared. It's been three days since he raised the child, and he still hasn't come back. I was still thinking about it.

...I was thinking about it...I went out with Lao Wu...but a group of people came just now and said they wanted compensation..."

What kind of compensation do you want?

After asking for a long time, the words were confused, and the next time I asked, it was just five words: "I don't know!"

Okay! If you don’t know, just don’t know. You’ll know when you get there.

The car drove fast all the way, and when we reached the alley, we were surrounded by people inside and outside.

The third child was shouting in the crowd: "...you should go to the fifth brother for the trouble caused by the fifth brother. What does it mean to find my second brother at my door?"

The car braked suddenly and stopped.
