Chapter 045 Story

Arriving at the department store, Soldier Jia didn’t have the cowardice of country people going to the city at all. He bought a pound of fine wool in bright red for Su Hongxia for five and a half yuan, and bought a pair of bright red bows for Jia Fang. , spent fifty cents.

Then settle the score there.

Two hens were sold for 10.2 yuan, and two bowls of noodles were eaten for 50 cents. The total cost was 6.5 yuan. Including the travel expenses back, I actually didn't save much money from this trip.

Lin Siwei said: "My aunt and Fangfang are both here. Doesn't Yaming have any gifts?"

Jia Bingsheng said: "Girls love to be beautiful. What does a boy want? I will make him a wooden gun later and he will be happy for a long time."

He looked nonchalant, but Lin Siwei felt something in his heart.

"Uncle, please wait a moment. I'll be right back."

Lin Siwei ran away and turned into the crowd of people in the department store. After a while, he ran over again with a black plastic toy gun in his hand.

"I bought this for Yaming." She handed the toy gun to Soldier Jia.

Soldier Jia was startled and felt as if his hands were hot: "How can this be done? You haven't made any money. How can I let you buy something? Where did you buy it? Go and return it."

"You can't return it. Just take it."

Lin Siwei said. Tell the truth. The state-owned stores these days do not regard customers as God like later generations. Even the "feeling at home" on the glass door is just a pretense. I am thankful that I can not show off the customer's face. I still want to return the goods... I haven't woken up from the dream yet.

"How much is it? I'll give it to you." Soldier Jia dug into his pocket.

Lin Siwei smiled and said, "Uncle, don't be polite to me. Although I haven't worked yet, the technical school also provides monthly subsidies. Besides, we will go to the factory for internship next month, and the internship will be paid."

"Really?" Soldier Jia Doubtful.

Although Lin Siwei also said in his letter that there was no shortage of money now, Su Hongxia really didn't believe it. Su Hongxia's thought was that Lin Zhengqing's cruelty in abandoning his mother and daughter did not look like he was repentant.

Why did Lin Siwei suddenly not go to high school, nor find a job, but suddenly went to a technical school that required accommodation? Su Hongxia felt there was something wrong.

Isn't this deliberately trying to separate the children?

So when Lin Siwei said that he was not in a hurry, Soldier Jia didn't dare to believe it.

Lin Siwei said: "Let me tell you the truth, uncle. Not only do I get subsidies from the school, but I also make up extra classes for my classmates to earn money. My grandma also gives me living expenses every month." "

Can I still make money by taking extra classes?" Soldier Jia was shocked.

Another way to make money that I have never heard of.

In fact, Lin Siwei didn't even make up a few classes. Ever since he sold Ding Shaowu a clever way to take the exam, Ding Shaowu really worked hard and memorized the two sample essays.

Because I will be entering the factory for internship next month, the third grade students have already begun their graduation exams. English, a dispensable but necessary subject, ends earliest.

Ding Shaowu actually passed!

This is really big news. Director Ding’s face was brightened.

Of course, after the first and second grade boys on the football team knew that their "Coach Lin" taught them the test method, several boys with less developed limbs and simpler minds came to the door.

Ding Shaowu was very loyal and refused to reveal the magic weapon, and only asked them to find Lin Siwei.

Lin Siwei just gave them some advice and took two yuan from each person. The reason why they are not as whole-hearted as Ding Shaowu is actually because the English of these younger brothers is not as rubbish as Ding Shaowu.

So although Lin Si can't be said to be rich now, he can indeed make it to work.

What's more, it will be 1983 in a blink of an eye, and policies will only become more relaxed and better. As long as Lin Siwei survives this most difficult period, there will be countless opportunities to make money waiting for her later.

"There are many opportunities to make money in the city, and no one with a sharp mind can rely on wages. I give tutoring lessons to my classmates as income from my labor..."

"You won't be reported...arrested, right?" Soldier Jia said weakly.

Because it was said on the radio that someone had been arrested for speculation, and Lin Siwei was making up lessons. He definitely didn't have a business license.

Lin Siwei smiled and said, "No. I won't make up for others easily. I want someone who is very reliable. Besides, I will enter the factory soon, and I won't make up any more classes."

"That's good." Soldier Jia finally felt relieved. He waved the toy gun in his hand and said, "Hey, don't tell me, this thing is made to look like the real thing. It's quite decent

." I imagine how happy my son will be when he sees the toy gun. Jia The soldier chuckled to himself as he thought about it.

...

Since he had no place to stay in the city, he didn't want to see Lin Zhengqing. After all, Su Hongxia had called Lin Zhengqing a heartless man countless times. Jia Bingbing felt that even looking at her would be a betrayal of her dead sister-in-law. So Soldier Jia bought a long-distance bus ticket directly and returned to Shaping County in the afternoon.

He left. Lin Siwei returned to school and looked worried at the two bags of rice in the warehouse.

Two days later, she found an afternoon without classes and borrowed a bicycle from Ding Shaowu. With a bag of rice attached to it, I can barely ride it, but it shakes a lot. Hang two bags and it will be a nest.

Forget it, let's let Ding Shaowu's bicycle go.

She first sent a bag of rice to Yangchuan Road. She had already assigned a key to her grandma's house and carried a bag of rice upstairs.

Hu Qiaoyue was not surprised by the bag of rice, but she was surprised that her granddaughter, who was covered in sweat, could actually carry the bag of rice on a bicycle.

Why does this rice weigh 20 kilograms?

Lin Siwei was proud. There is indeed a lot of physical work these days, but it also exercises her.

In her previous life, she had endured a lot of hardships, including a lot of physical hardships. Lin Siwei understood very well how these hardships temper human nature, and she was not afraid of them.

Hearing that the rice was specially sent by her uncle from Shaping County, Hu Qiaoyue was very emotional and said that your aunt's family was very kind. She also said that if Lin Siwei becomes successful in the future, he must not forget these people who have helped her.

Lin Siwei took the opportunity to say, "Grandma, my uncle actually sent two bags of rice. I'll give you one bag here, and another bag. I plan to send it to Fish Bone Alley."

"No, you want to give it to your dad?"

Hu Qiaoyue found it incredible that her granddaughter was not a great saint at first glance.

"No, no, I want to give it to the Gu family in Fish Bone Alley. Although I have only lived in Fish Bone Alley for three days, my grandpa and grandma are very kind to me. You see, these clothes are all given to me by them."

"Gu family..." Hu Qiaoyue murmured, stroking the chair with her fingers, as if searching for something in her mind.

"Are you talking about Gu Mingde's family?"

"Yes, do you know grandma too?"

Hu Qiaoyue pursed her lips and said, "Jinling is very small."

Lin Siwei waited for her next words, but Hu Qiaoyue stopped talking.

"Are you grandma's colleague?" Lin Siwei asked. But after asking, she felt that she had asked the wrong question. Gu Mingde and Zhang Xiuqin were both veteran cadres who had been working in government agencies and had nothing to do with Hu Qiaoyue.

Hu Qiaoyue shook her head, slightly lost in thought, and then said after a while: "They are both good people. Send them the rice quickly. But don't mention me to them."

Lin Siwei wanted to ask "why", but in the end he held it back.

In the chaotic years, the elders have their own stories buried in their hearts. So does grandma.

I just don't know what kind of story this is.

Lin Siwei's heart moved, remembering that grandma never seemed to talk about grandpa.
