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...
Jiang Shanshan looked at the somewhat familiar place in front of her and wanted to ask him what he was doing here. Before she could ask, he had already pulled her inside.
As soon as the young couple came in, the old man who worked there immediately called out to stop them from going inside.
"What are you doing here? Do you know what this place is for?" the old man stopped the young couple and asked with a shrewd look on his face.
Xu Shike walked up to the old man and told him why they were here. "Uncle, we are students studying here. Our family is poor and there are many things we don't have money to buy. We are young and we are thinking about whether we can find something useful here. Don't worry, we won't take it for free. We will pay for it. Is that okay with you?"
When the old man heard they were college students, the shrewdness in his eyes immediately faded, replaced by a gleam of admiration. "So you're this year's college students, huh? Not bad! I may not have much education, but I really admire people who can read and write. Whatever you two want to buy here, go ahead and I'll give you a discount."
The young couple looked at the old man who suddenly became enthusiastic. They looked at each other, smiled, and didn't say much to the old man.
With the old man's permission, the young couple finally entered the waste collection station here.
This waste collection station is worthy of being located in a big city. There are even more things inside than the one where Jiang Shanshan worked before, and they are all good things.
Walking into the scrap pile, Xu Shike immediately looked for some scrap metal in the waste pile.
Jiang Shanshan looked at the things he picked up and raised her eyebrows. Why did these things look so familiar to her?
After watching for a while, she immediately knew what he wanted to do.
"Are you planning to assemble a radio again?" Jiang Shanshan walked up to him and asked in a low voice.
Xu Shike stopped picking up his things, looked at her, and smiled. "My wife is really smart. Besides assembling radios, I can also assemble bicycles and other things. As long as I can make money, I'll try my hand at it. I told you I'll buy you and the kids a house here soon."
She wanted to tell him that he didn't need to work so hard, as long as they brought the things from the mall and sold them here, they would have a house to live in.
But she didn't say it in the end.
Because she knew that every man had his own self-esteem, and the man in front of her was the same.
He must also want to rely on his own abilities to make her and Xiao Dudu live a good life.
Xu Shike was about to lower his head to continue picking up things when his eyes suddenly caught sight of Jiang Shanshan, who had something to say but hadn't. He smiled and stopped.
"I know what you mean to say that we have the shopping mall and there is no need to work so hard to make money, right?" he asked, holding her arm.
Jiang Shanshan hesitated for a second, then nodded and said honestly, "Yes, I did want to say that just now, but I held it back. I know you have your own self-esteem, and you want to rely on your own abilities to make a good life for Xiao Dudu and me. I believe in you, you will be able to do it."
In their previous life, their family of three could live in a big city, and they can do the same in this life.
Xu Shike smiled and took his trusting wife into his arms. He lowered his head and kissed the top of her head. "Thank you for trusting me. I will definitely work hard to make you, your son, and our future children live a happy life."
