Sun Weiguo looked up in surprise and asked loudly towards Chu Tian's back, "Brother Tian, ​​are you serious? Can I really ride it?"

Chu Tian sat on the shaft of the carriage, picked up the whip, smiled at Sun Weiguo, said "of course", flicked the whip, and drove the carriage back.

Sun Weiguo stood there excitedly for a long time before he rode his bicycle in the direction Chu Tian left and soon caught up with Chu Tian.

"Brother Tian, ​​this bicycle is really good..."

Chu Tian glanced sideways at Sun Weiguo, who hadn't yet recovered from his composure, and said with a laugh, "If you like it, buy it. You've saved a few dozen dollars now, right? If that's not enough, I'll pay you the rest first!"

Sun Weiguo shook his head. "Forget it. My dad said that if you don't have money, don't spend it. You can't go into debt just to satisfy your own selfish desires. Also, buying this bike requires a bicycle ticket, which I can't get..."

Chu Tian laughed. "How can it be considered as satisfying selfish desires? How convenient is it to have a bicycle? Whether the captain is going to a meeting at the company or at the regiment, doesn't it save time compared to driving a horse-drawn carriage?"

"As for the tickets, can't Brother Li Gang get them? It's just a few dozen dollars more. If you really like it, don't worry about it. Life is so tiring. We must enjoy ourselves while we can. Otherwise, when we get older, we won't be able to enjoy ourselves even if we want to..."

Sun Weiguo was stunned for a moment, then hesitated for a moment before saying, "I have saved about 80 yuan now. My mother-in-law gave me 50 yuan as a dowry when my wife and I got married. Now our family only has 130 yuan in total..."

Chu Tian nodded. "Then prepare another 110 or so. I'll give you the money whenever you want to buy it. Or should I give it to you now?"

Sun Weiguo thought for a moment and said, "When I deliver the goods tomorrow, I'll ask Brother Li Gang if he has any bicycle tickets."

"Also, I still want to go home and discuss this with my dad and Meiling..."

Chu Tian raised his eyebrows slightly, "Okay, it's up to you. Whenever you need money, just come to me."

"Young man, who are you looking for?"

Old Mrs. Chu got up and sat at the door of the dugout to bask in the sun. She looked at a young man walking towards her and was very curious.

Yao Youjun was also a little confused. He didn't recognize the old lady in front of him, but he still answered honestly, "I, I came to find my eldest sister and brother-in-law..."

Mrs. Chu didn't react for a moment, "Ah? Who are your eldest sister and brother-in-law?"

Before Yao Youjun could finish his words, he was seen by Yao Xiuli who came out with a bucket of water.

"Brother, did you take a break?"

Yao Xiuli excitedly put the bucket on the ground, rushed to Yao Youjun and grabbed his arm.

Yao Youjun scratched his head and said, "Ah, yes, just one day off..."

Mrs. Chu suddenly realized what was going on. She stood up and walked over to Yao Youjun, looking him up and down. "You are Xiujuan's brother?"

Yao Youjun nodded hesitantly, "Yes, my name is Yao Youjun, and who is your grandmother?"

Yao Xiuli hurriedly introduced, "Brother, this is my eldest brother-in-law's grandmother."

Yao Youjun understood and quickly called out, "Hello, Grandma."

Old Mrs. Chu looked at Yao Youjun with a smile in her eyes and nodded, "Okay, okay..."

When it comes to people, it all comes down to first impressions. When Old Lady Chu saw Yao Youjun for the first time, she thought this boy was a good guy and could tell at a glance that he was a person of good character.

"Good boy, how old are you this year?"

Yao Youjun was stunned for a moment, but still answered obediently, "Grandma, I'm eighteen years old!"

Mrs. Chu was even happier when she heard this. "Oh, you're eighteen? Eighteen is good, eighteen is good!" "Huh?"

Yao Youjun was even more confused, and even Yao Xiuli beside him was confused. They were all wondering why his brother-in-law's grandmother spoke so strangely?

"Sister, this is my salary for last month. I wanted to come back last week, but my master's other apprentice took a break with me last week, so I didn't take a break."

When Yao Youjun met Yao Xiujuan, the first thing he did was to take out eighteen yuan from his pocket and hand it to her.

Yao Xiujuan hesitated and asked, "Don't you want to save some pocket money?"

Yao Youjun shook his head. "No, when I came from my family, I only had two dollars in my pocket. During this time, I only spent the money on a letter to my parents, and I haven't touched the rest..."

After hearing this, Yao Xiujuan thought for a moment and said, "You can give this money to your brother-in-law later. I don't care about these things..."

"oh···"

Yao Youjun wondered why he couldn't just accept it directly. Why did he have to give it to his brother-in-law? However, after his elder sister said so, he took it back.

"By the way, where is my brother-in-law?"

Yao Xiujuan, "I guess he went to the regiment. I haven't seen him since I got up early!"

Here, Old Mrs. Chu leaned close to her granddaughter Chu Lifang and asked quietly, "Lifang, did you see that just now?"

Chu Lifang was squatting at the door, preparing to peel a potato. She was stunned when she heard the words, "What did you see?"

Old Madam Chu came closer to Chu Lifang and said mysteriously, "That's your sister-in-law's younger brother!"

Chu Lifang nodded. "I saw it. Sister-in-law Xiao Shi introduced us to each other. He even smiled and said hello to me. But, grandma, why are you saying this?"

Old Mrs. Chu's face was all smiles as she whispered, "I asked about that kid, and he's currently working as an apprentice at the steel mill! He gets 18 yuan a month, and they say there's an annual assessment. If he passes, he'll be promoted to a regular employee, earning over 30 yuan a month. They also say that if he works long enough, he'll even get a house and even be able to eat rations in the future!"
