Such people start to have good fortunes too late, and even if they enjoy happiness in old age, they can only enjoy it for a few years, so they cannot be considered lucky.
Seeing his sad face, Ye Xiaozhen suddenly remembered the time when she first arrived.
At that time, Ye Guo and Sun Qing were reluctant to spend money to save her life, and they hoped that she could be sold for a good price.
The old man didn't know whether the man could be saved after spending the money, but he paid the money without hesitation.
Five hundred yuan is equivalent to fifty thousand yuan in later generations.
Even though the hospital had issued a critical illness notice, he still dared to pay, not afraid of losing the money.
Come to think of it, Grandpa has always been a kind person.
Good people are often bullied. If he wasn't kind, he wouldn't have spent money to save her life.
"Xiaozhen, get in the car."
While he was daydreaming, Xie Linan, who was already standing next to the car, shouted.
Ye Xiaozhen hurriedly followed with Xiaobao in her arms.
Xie Linan was holding two children, and grandpa wanted to hold one, but Xie Linan dodged by leaning to the side, preventing him from holding him.
He also said that he was an old cripple who could hardly walk properly and he was holding a child, so he might as well let them both fall.
His mouth invited scolding, and his grandfather got so angry that he scolded his grandson again.
Ye Xiaozhen didn't know whether to laugh or cry. She didn't know whether the scolding was directed at Xie Linan or at himself.
The truck dragged their luggage and their entire family into the city.
Xie Li had been waiting outside the door for a long time. When she saw them coming, she quickly reached out and took the children one by one.
"It's quite fast. It's not even eight o'clock yet and Hongxia just went to school."
According to local custom, moving should be done early, usually starting before dawn.
In the past, when there was a shortage of electricity, you could often see people moving house with torches.
They also started working before daybreak, and since there were a lot of things, they got them all done.
Lin Xinghua had never ridden in a car before, and he felt a little uncomfortable after being shaken all the way.
She helped him sit on a chair, his face pale, and asked Xie Li to bring him a basin.
Xie Linan knew he was carsick when he saw him like this, so he said, "It's no use holding a basin. Come on, I'll help you sit by the door. The air will be better."
"I think so. Let's go to the door."
Sitting by the door, the wind really made me feel better.
"You go and do your work. I'll just sit here for a while."
"Okay, if you still feel uncomfortable, just call me."
"Got it, go ahead."
There were a lot of stuff, and it took them and the driver quite a while to move it.
Ye Xiaozhen looked at the two children and brought them some iced beer, popsicles, and watermelon.
After the move was completed, the driver drank half a bottle of beer and said, "That's great, boss, do you have a refrigerator at home?"
"Of course, you didn't help me pull it here last time, didn't you see it?"
"Ah? I don't know. Those foreign machines of yours are all rare. I have never seen them before."
He took the remaining half bottle of beer and walked to the kitchen, "Let me see what the refrigerator looks like."
A refrigerator in a cabinet is the kitchen.
"That's it." Xie Linan said.
"Is this a refrigerator? How come the door is open like this?" The driver was surprised. "I thought it was a closet. I was wondering why my sister-in-law put a closet in the kitchen."
"Go ahead, who has nothing better to do than put a closet in the kitchen."
After finishing a bottle of beer, Xie Linan handed him another one and said, "Old Li, we're at the Lincheng Hotel tonight, don't forget."
"Okay, I'll remember that."
After everything was put in place, Ye Xiaozhen took Xie Li to the kitchen to introduce it one by one.
"You've already seen refrigerators, rice cookers, and washing machines. This one, a dough mixer and dough proofer."
“Just put the noodles in it?”
"Yes, just put the things in proportion."
"What about this?"
“This is for making dumplings.”
“Can this thing really make dumplings?”
"Of course, forget it today. I'll show you tomorrow."
"What about this?"
"This is for cutting the steamed buns. After wrapping and cutting them, we can put them in here and steam them."
She couldn't understand the steamer at all.
“Can this thing be used to steam buns?”
"Yes, of course I can. I'll show you how to do it some other day."
The foreign machines broadened her horizons.
She had seen lying refrigerators before, but this was the first time she had seen a standing refrigerator.
She had seen rice cookers before, on TV, but they didn't look like this. She thought Ye Xiaozhen's rice cooker was more advanced than the one on TV.
The washing machine was also very useful. The washing machines she had seen were taken from the top, but Ye Xiaozhen's washing machine was taken from the side.
She even suspected that the water would leak out.
There were also a bunch of miscellaneous small appliances, such as juicers and blenders, which she had never heard of.
In 1988, range hoods were already available in China, so there was no need to dismantle her kitchen.
Ye Xiaozhen bought a range hood early and installed it in the kitchen.
It was done during the renovation.
There is no other way. The range hoods at that time were not very effective, so I had to get two more.
Xie Li was amazed by the movie, and in order to dispel her doubts, Ye Xiaozhen even went to find out if the cinema had any foreign films.
She actually found out about it. She knew an old movie, an old movie about a housewife from a country named M doing her daily housework.
By then, she will see that foreign home appliances have become very advanced.
"Sister, from now on, only our family can enter the kitchen, and no outsiders are allowed to look in."
"Ah?" Xie Li was a little confused.
Ye Xiaozhen said: "Our stuff is not cheap, and the source... cannot be known to others. If someone asks us where we bought it, we can't tell them, and we can't not tell them either."
"Ah? Just now Lin An introduced the refrigerator to the driver."
"That's okay. He can't afford it, and he won't ask. Besides, he helped with the move that day and has seen these things before."
Xie Li nodded, "Okay, let's put a sign on the door later, saying the kitchen is closed, no entry for unauthorized persons."
Ye Xiaozhen smiled and said, "We should definitely put up a sign."
…
In the evening, Xie Linan hosted a banquet for the Qiao Qian family. There were several round tables for many people.
This should be considered a rare act of arrogance in this era.
Their second uncle and his family also came.
Last time Huang Linlin met Ye Xiaozhen, she didn't get a good deal and left in disgrace.
After that, their family adopted measures of no contact and no severing ties with them, and never came to hang around them again.
This time their family came again to celebrate Qiao's wedding.
Of course, we didn't break up, and we were just close to my uncle's family.
In this situation, we can't offend them, so we naturally treat them well.
Xie Zhiguo took his son Xie Linsen to visit various bosses and leaders, and repeatedly introduced how outstanding his son was, just like his brother.
If you don’t know, you might think that this person is Xie Lin’an’s biological father and brother.
Everyone found it strange. Xie Lin An was obviously better, so why didn't he say a word?
Until Xie Linan called them "Second Uncle", they were brought back to their original form.
"Uncle, Grandpa said he hasn't seen you for half a year and misses you and Brother Sen. Do you want to take Brother Sen to see Grandpa?"
