Yi Anan quickly waved her hands: "No, he is my brother!"

Tang Aren also whispered: "I'm not the one for Big Sister. I just didn't leave because I was afraid that Big Sister would need my help with something."

Sister Lan continued to laugh and said, "Oh, it's really enviable to see you two care about each other. An An, why didn't you marry him at that time?"

Yi Anan smiled helplessly, this Sister Lan is really gossipy!

Tang A'ren glanced at Yi An'an.

Tang A'ren has no father or mother and is often bullied at the educated youth center. At first, he felt that he was not worthy of Yi An'an. But when he went to Yanjia Village that day to inquire about where Yi An'an lived, he heard some rumors. He didn't expect that Yi An'an actually married a bad element in the village, a man who was not even as good as him!

Tang A'ren turned his head and looked at Yi An'an, his eyes full of pain.

The cold-faced and cold-spoken Zhan Nanhui obviously had a bad temper and might even hit someone. Yi Anan must have been forced to marry him, because the villagers also said that Yi Anan's stepmother asked for a high price for a bride for her son.

Thinking of this, Tang A'ren felt more and more pity for Yi An'an. When they were having dinner together, he ran around to get chopsticks and bowls for Yi An'an.

Yi Anan had six perms done at the beginning, and she was indeed tired, even her arms could hardly be lifted. But Tang A'ren ordered the cheapest noodles to save money, and she tried several times but couldn't pick them up.

Tang Aren asked in a low voice: "Do you want me to help you?"

Yi Anan waved her hand and said, "I can eat by myself."

Tang Aren's face immediately turned red. "I don't mean to feed you. What I mean is, how about I change a bowl of stewed meat for you? I can also eat this bowl."

Yi Anan smiled: "Okay!"

Tang A'ren quickly got up and went to order a bowl of stewed pork. He deliberately took some time, waiting until his face was not so hot, and then returned to his seat.

Tang A'ren's noodles were about to clumping together, but he insisted on waiting for Yi An'an's braised pork to be cooked before eating together.

Finally, the braised dish was served. Tang A'ren took the chopsticks and handed them to Yi An'an, then he lowered his head and began to eat voraciously.

In a short while, Tang A'ren had finished two bowls of noodles.

After eating, Tang Aren wiped his mouth with his hand embarrassedly, "I'm so hungry, sorry!"

"Would you like another bowl of barbecue? I think this barbecue tastes pretty good!" Yi Anan asked.

Tang A'ren glanced around, stretched his head and said in a low voice, "The food in this restaurant is too expensive. Just this bowl of noodles costs 1.6 yuan, two bowls cost 1.5 yuan, and the barbecue costs 1 yuan, which is even more expensive. I won't eat it. I'll just eat the sweet potatoes from the team when I get back."

Yi Anan smiled and insisted on ordering a bowl of braised pork with stew, and added a portion of beef to the braised pork for Tang A'ren.

When the barbecue was served, Tang A'ren felt pain just looking at the meat inside. When he ordered the first bowl of barbecue just now, he had seen the price of the beef, one dollar. He had one dollar on him, which was given to him by Yi An'an. It was enough to treat Yi An'an to a bowl of barbecue without beef.

"You eat beef!" Tang A'ren picked up some beef and put it in Yi An'an's bowl.

"I'm full!" Yi An'an put down the bowl and chopsticks and said with a smile, "Eat quickly, and you can help me with work in the future and have meat for every meal!"

Tang Aren smiled sheepishly, "I just brought you a basket, which is not even worth a bowl of noodles, let alone this beef!"

"By the way, how is the food at your youth cadre camp?" Yi Anan asked.

Tang A'ren looked pale and thin, and seemed to have been malnourished for a long time.

Tang A'ren hesitated for a moment and said, "We are mainly responsible for the Dongjiazui Reservoir. I can't swim, and I work slower than others. I always go to eat last. The food is cold, and it's all steamed bread and sweet potatoes that others don't want. I haven't eaten fine flour for a long time!"

Looking at Tang A'ren's honest smile, Yi An'an thought of Tang A'ren's miserable life in his previous life and sighed softly.

It was such a man who couldn't even get enough food to eat, but he jumped into the icy river without hesitation in such a cold day to rescue her daughter.

Wait...Yi Anan suddenly thought of a question. Tang A'ren said he couldn't swim, so how did he jump into the river to save his daughter in his previous life?

But in the previous life, it was Tang A'ren holding her daughter and standing by the river...

Yi Anan was a little dazed for a moment.

"Sister, what's wrong with you?" Tang A'ren asked.

"Oh, it's okay. Please help me check the situation at the bookstore later." Yi Anan replied quickly.

Tang A'ren didn't know what to do in the bookstore, but he was very obedient and agreed immediately.

Yi Anan looked at Tang A'ren's obedient appearance and sighed. Let's talk about this later. Now we have to make money.

After eating and resting for a while, Yi Anan went to perm Hua Jie and Xiao Wang's hair. When their hair was done, they were naturally very satisfied.

"How much do you want for our hair?" Sister Hua winked at Xiao Wang, who immediately asked embarrassedly.

Yi Anan smiled and said, "You are already the signature models, why do you need money? I'm giving this to you two. Be more enthusiastic in the future and attract more customers. That will be considered as money for my perm!"

The attitude of the state-owned barbershop is very bad. If Yi Anan wants to attract more people to the shop for perm, he naturally needs the service staff to have a good attitude, so he must first win over the barbershop employees.

Sister Hua was very satisfied and said with a smile: "You just went to eat, so I don't know the situation in the store. Just now, several people came to ask about your hairstyle. I said that I will start doing it tomorrow, and they have made appointments to do it. I think this business will be good!"

Yi Anan nodded and said to everyone, "I will share my share of the profits with everyone who comes to do my hair style. I will pay extra labor fees to the person who perms and receives each customer. This money will be taken from the extra one dollar I collected."

The business in this store is good, and Sister Hua is happy, which will help her get promoted. However, for the employees in the store, it means more work but still the same fixed salary. Therefore, Yi Anan would rather earn less but build a good reputation. After all, even if she only makes a few dollars per head, if she perms ten hairs a day, that's one dollar. In a month with thirty days, that's one hundred and ten dollars, which is three months' salary for an ordinary person, not a small amount.

When Yi Anan said this, all the workers in the barber shop widened their eyes. They were also calculating this amount in their minds. That would be one hundred and ten yuan a month, which was too much money!

"Okay, okay, okay!" The two masters immediately volunteered and said, "When you were doing hair perming, we watched you carefully and we have almost learned it. Go ahead, when people come in to get their hair permed, we will definitely treat them well and try to do more hair perming to make more money!"

Yi Anan smiled and nodded, then looked at Sister Hua: "Sister Hua, after a month is over, I will give you a commission from my profits. Believe me, I will never let you down!"

Sister Hua immediately smiled from ear to ear: "Sure, sure!"

Yi Anan smiled and nodded. After finishing her work at the barber shop, she waited until the evening and waited for Tang A'ren at the station to go home together.

There were many people on the bus, so Tang A'ren didn't dare to say much. When getting off the bus, Tang A'ren moved closer to Yi An'an and whispered, "The bookstore said they were arresting people who sold pirated books. Those people drew a portrait and posted it on the door. I saw..."
