An earthquake caused Jiang Shanshan's originally well-off family of three to transmigrate to the impoverished 1970s.
On the left was their son crying for food in her arms, and on the righ...
"Of course I thought about it, third sister-in-law. I'm not afraid of you laughing at me, but in fact, the money your eldest brother and I have saved together is no more than 20 yuan. Now the two children are getting older, and your eldest brother and I are looking forward to sending them to school one day. I hope they don't end up like your eldest brother and I, who are illiterate and have to work hard in the fields all day long." He Hua frowned when talking about these things.
Jiang Shanshan listened to her nagging words like a loyal listener.
Occasionally he would say a few words and give her some advice.
After they chatted for more than ten minutes, the relationship between the two sisters-in-law suddenly took a qualitative leap.
"Third sister-in-law, you city people are city people. Your brains are smarter than those of us who live in the countryside. Okay, I'll listen to you and do this business."
"Sister-in-law, it's good that you think this way. Also, you must keep our business confidential. Don't let anyone know about it, otherwise, I'm afraid it will cause trouble."
After all, in this day and age, doing private business is a crime.
He Hua nodded vigorously immediately. "I know, Third Sister-in-law, of course I know this. Don't worry, I will definitely keep my mouth shut, and I will also make those who buy us keep their mouths shut."
Jiang Shanshan nodded with satisfaction. After spending the past few days together, she discovered that although her sister-in-law was usually careless in her actions, she was actually more thoughtful than the average person.
This is also the reason why I asked her to do this business.
"Okay, I'll write a letter to my friend in the next couple of days and ask him to give me fifty scarves to try first."
Once this matter was finalized, He Hua went back to her parents' home that afternoon.
In the evening, Xu Shike rode his bicycle home after a day of work.
When he came back, there was a bag of raw pork hanging on the hood of his car.
"Why are you buying pork again? Didn't we just eat it these past two days?" Yu Guifang felt so distressed when she saw the pork brought back by her youngest son.
When her youngest son came back, he brought meat home every day. She was really worried that the child would spend all the money he had.
"Mom, this meat was given to me by the factory. It's free." He explained with a smile.
In fact, the meat was not sent by the factory. He felt sorry for his wife who was not used to the simple meals at home, so he bought a pound or two of meat to satisfy her craving.
Yu Guifang had no idea of her youngest son's thoughts. When she heard it was a gift, the worry on her face disappeared.
He walked into the kitchen with a smile on his face, carrying the pork.
Jiang Shanshan, who was standing behind them holding her son, heard exactly what the mother and son had just said.
"Your factory is so nice, they even give us free meat." She walked up to him and gently bumped his arm.
Xu Shike chuckled softly, took the son from her arms and kissed him, "You believe this kind of thing, too? If I don't say this, Mom will keep talking. I bought it, but the price I gave is a little low."
After hearing his explanation, Jiang Shanshan immediately gave him a thumbs up.
"I met a co-worker at the factory today. His relative works in a bookstore. I asked him to help us keep an eye on the review materials." He spoke in a low voice.
Jiang Shanshan's face lit up with joy, "Great, tell him we'll buy it no matter how much it costs."
No one is looking for this information now, but when the college entrance examination notification day comes, it will be really hard to buy that information even if you have money.
