Yang Xiaoshu was not angry when he was criticized, he just laughed.
"That's better than mine! At least your family can afford it, and the money you earn is yours. Unlike me, I run around delivering alcohol to people every day, and my mom only gives me 30 yuan a month."
Yang Xiaoshu's family is a wine-making family. After graduating from junior high school, he stopped studying and followed his parents to work in the winery.
The sales of this kind of yellowish wine are not bad. Almost every small shop at the entrance of the village will have several large jars for sale. They cost a few cents each and you can bring your own bottles to fill them.
But the sales volume is not very good, because nowadays it is generally only country people who buy it to drink, while city people generally buy bottled wine from reputable brands.
In Yang Xiaoshu's own words, things will definitely get worse and worse in the future.
But his father didn't think so. He thought that this winery had supported several generations of their family, and the two-story house at home was also built with the help of the winery. As long as Yang Xiaoshu was willing to learn seriously, inherit the craft, and work hard to carry it forward in the future, wouldn't that be enough!
"You can't treat me as free labor! The technicians who come to my house to help me get paid 60 a month! Only 30 for me?
Speaking of which, I'm also saying that this winery will be mine in the future. But I have to wait until that day comes, right? How old am I? My father can still run this business for at least another 30 or 40 years!
Do I have to live a frugal life for the next thirty or forty years?
Moreover, it is difficult for him to have a day off. Today, he had a quarrel with his father and ran away secretly.
Speaking of this, Lin Shuchao could empathize very well. Wasn't it just for more money and freedom that he wanted to leave?
"So you want to open your own shop?"
Yang Xiaoshu shook his head. "If I really opened it, I don't know what I could sell. And my parents wouldn't give me the money."
If he relies on himself, he will never be able to save that much money.
"Hey! Think it through!" Lin Shuchao patted his shoulder.
"You have to know that at least your job is stable. As long as your parents continue to work, you will have a job.
How many people have found a job and still worry about whether their boss will fire them! Their salary is not much higher than yours, but they are still worried every day. If you think about it this way, don't you think you are not so bad?
Yang Xiaoshu sneered, "That's true, at least I won't starve to death."
In fact, following parents to work is very common in the Yangtze River Delta region. Even after another thirty years, young people will still have this problem.
On the one hand, he is called the young master, and on the other hand, he is extremely poor.
This is also the reason why Lin Shuchao doesn't want to work under his parents.
Now that he has paid off his debts, he has also set a small goal for himself, which is to save some money so that he can give living expenses to his parents and grandmother every month and buy himself a motorcycle!
He doesn't dare to think about a car for the time being, but he can still look at a motorcycle that costs more than 10,000 yuan. A motorcycle is always cooler than a bicycle!
Fortunately, he only muttered this idea to himself for now, and would tell Lin Guoqing and Shen Chunhua when he got home.
Wow, Comrade Lao Lin will definitely teach him why the flowers are so red.
***
Lin Shuying and Huang Xinli's engagement party was held at the end of summer vacation so that both Lin Shumei and Lin Shugan could make it.
Lin Shugan has been serving in the army for a full year. Jiang Weimin recommended him to attend the cultural class. When Lin Shumei takes the college entrance examination next year, he can also take the entrance examination for the military academy.
This time he had specifically applied for three days off to attend Lin Shuying's engagement. He did not come alone. Chen Xiahua, Jiang He and Jiang Miao also came with him. Only Jiang Weimin was too busy with work to come.
Lin Shuying has been thinking about this matter ever since she learned that her mother and aunt had also reunited as sisters.
My aunt's family lives in Shanghai. Ever since Shen Donghua moved her shop and home to Hudong, she is often invited to dinner, and sometimes Huang Xinli is brought along.
She originally felt that she was the only one struggling in the Shanghai Stock Exchange, but suddenly it seemed as if she had her family members supporting her locally.
She felt the benefits of being a relative and thought her second brother was probably in the same situation as him in Jiang Province. So even if Chen Chunhua didn't say it, she knew that she had to actively maintain her family relationship.
She had originally invited Shen Donghua's family to attend the engagement, and Chen Xiahua also came, which was a good opportunity for the three sisters to get together.
The Huang family has not bought a house yet, but they have already found one that is not far from where Lin Shuying and Huang Xinli work. The house is only 60 square meters, but the owner wants 120,000 yuan for it.
After all, it is a house for marriage, so it must be renovated after buying it. Mother Huang asked people around her, and they said that it would cost at least 10,000 yuan to renovate the house and buy a new bed and cabinets.
Mother Huang felt that the money was too much to spend, so she was still bargaining with the landlord.
But the engagement banquet was also very good. Three tables of banquets were set up at the People's Hotel. Although it was not too expensive, all the necessary items were served, including chicken, duck, fish, seafood, and drinks.
Lin Shuying also asked Chen Chunhua to bring her aunt's family along, but after Ma Dexiang and Lin Yulan discussed it, they decided not to bring the main group with them for the time being, and let Sanni and Qi Jinzhou represent their Ma family to attend the engagement banquet.
His family was too large. The Huang family's wedding banquet wasn't a typical buffet in the village. Hotel food was expensive to begin with, and if Wulala also came, their family would have to take up half a table. How much would that cost? And how much red envelope should they return?
It would be better to wait until Shuying gets married and returns to the village for the wedding banquet. Even the newborn baby should be brought to share in the good fortune.
This time, since there were so many people and a lot of luggage, and they couldn't buy all the train tickets, Lin Guoqing decided to ask the bus company to rent a hailed bus. It's one of those old-fashioned buses that stops at the roadside and will come when you wave your hand.
There is no need to hire a driver. In order to run a transport team, Qi Jinzhou obtained two levels of driver's licenses, A-level for large buses and B-level for large trucks. Driving this minibus is even easier for him.
Four-year-old Ma Jiawei had to climb onto the rightmost passenger seat in front of the hailing car. There was a large engine compartment between him and the driver's seat.
"Dad! Beep beep beep! Go!" The little kid waved his little fist at Qi Jinzhou who had just sat in the driver's seat.
"Ma Jiawei! Get in the back! If we brake anytime soon, your head will hit the window!"
Sanni, dressed in a smart summer suit and carrying a large luggage bag, chased after the boy from the back door and got angry when she saw the boy slip away so quickly.
She didn't want to take the monkey with her in the first place. It was at the age when even dogs disliked it. It jumped around everywhere. Shanghai was so big that it would be a disaster if they couldn't catch it.
"No! I want to sit next to Daddy!"
"Then I won't take you with me!"
"No!! Wow!!" The little brat started crying.
“I’m going! I’m going! Wuu ...
