Chapter 214: Plan Failed
When Diao Yulian saw her husband's miserable appearance, she ran to the yard, her eyebrows twisted into knots, and she couldn't control her surprise.
Wu Shengli walked with a limp, his mouth crooked and humming.
His hands were not idle, with two bicycle wheels on his wrists.
He held the front bar of the car with both hands and had a cloth bag tied around his waist.
What do you call this?
"Can you please keep your voice down? You're afraid others won't hear you, right? Come and help me up."
Wu Shengli's head was buzzing. He was so upset by the woman's yelling that he took two steps forward and his butt was pulled again.
Diao Yulian noticed Gao Xiulan looking over here from the opposite side, so she gave Wu Shengli a fierce look and helped him into the house.
"Ouch! I just reached the fork in the road when a kid suddenly ran out from the front.
I quickly stepped on the brakes, but unexpectedly the brakes didn't work at the critical moment, the steering wheel tilted, and I hit the wall.
Who knew the car would fall apart? When it fell, it stretched his thigh muscles. Jiabao, get some safflower oil and rub it on your dad."
“Everyone in our compound buys a bicycle that is still in good condition after using it for 10 to 20 years.
It fell apart just by hitting it against the wall. Where did you buy it? I have to find the store."
Diao Yulian looked at the pile of odds and ends that had been picked up and became angry again.
"Keep your voice down, didn't I buy this on the black market last time?
I was wondering why it was so cheap, less than a hundred, and it was probably assembled.”
Wu Shengli was also greedy for small profits. After exchanging the jade Buddha for a bicycle ticket, he simply found a way to get a bicycle on the black market.
"The black market was cleaned up last time, and a lot of people were arrested. You'll have to bear this loss yourself."
Diao Yulian asked Wu Shengli to lie on the bed, lifted up his clothes, and applied safflower oil on him.
She didn't dare talk about the bicycle matter outside, because anyone who was interested could see through it at a glance.
As I thought about it, I became shocked and frightened, so I hit him a little harder.
"It hurts, it hurts, my dear, please be gentle, it really hurts me, I won't try to take advantage of you next time."
"Repair this bicycle yourself at home, and don't show off in the future."
"I haven't touched a pair of pliers in years. I've forgotten everything about them. I'd better ask Old Xie to fix them for me someday."
"Aren't you ashamed? If others knew about it, they would probably laugh at you behind your back."
"Okay, okay, I'll fix it. Seriously, that rip-off guy really pissed me off.
If I meet him next time, I will definitely scold him to death!"
…
The weather was hot and humid. The ground had not yet been soaked by the rain, but the sun came out again, making people irritable for no reason.
Lin Xiaotong had been suffering from liver fire these days, and when she washed her face in the morning, she found a pimple on her forehead.
This pimple cannot be touched easily. If you touch it accidentally, the pain will spread to the top of your head.
Every day at work, she carries a cup of brewed chrysanthemum tea with her. Gao Xiulan had picked the chrysanthemums from the wild and dried them.
Wild chrysanthemums are small in size, but they smell very fragrant.
There was a large area of wild grass all over the mountains and plains. Zhang Dazui and a few others picked a sack each and brought it back.
After so many changes, Gao Xiulan also made a chrysanthemum pillow for each person in the family, a flat one, for them to use as a pillow when sleeping at night.
I slept well at night, and after a while, the red bloodshot in my eyes became less.
Xie Yi's one was taken to the south, and this year I plan to make another one for Xiong Chuan and send it to him.
Wild chrysanthemums are usually picked in autumn and winter, from the end of October to mid-December.
After drinking too much water, she wanted to go to the bathroom. After she finished taking care of the important matter in her life, she was about to go out when she heard someone talking outside.
She retracted her left foot after taking a step forward because she heard Qin Weihong's voice.
Fortunately, this public toilet is cleaned every day, so it looks relatively clean, but I still have to plug my nose with toilet paper.
"Chen Lan, why are you looking for me about Xu Dongsheng? I'm not his mother.
Or you and him?"
"Wei Hong, it's nothing. What are you thinking about? Xu Dongsheng just found me and asked me to tell you something."
"What does he have to say to me?"
After Qin Weihong came to work, she more or less heard Lin Xiaotong and the others talking about their partners. Apart from anything else, they all had serious jobs.
So when she saw Xu Dongsheng, she also felt that this man should not just rely on his looks to make a living. If a man doesn't have a job, does he need her to support the family in the future?
It’s not impossible, but if that’s the case, Xu Dongsheng will never be able to get past her parents.
In the end, they would break up, or Xu Dongsheng would become her son-in-law.
"Wei Hong, Xu Dongsheng hasn't found a partner, so he wants to..."
"What's the matter? You don't want me to find him a partner, do you? Chen Lan, you didn't agree to it for me, did you?
The last time my uncle found you a job, he did it because of a favor."
Qin Weihong couldn't control her voice and it went straight into Lin Xiaotong's ears.
"Wei Hong, I wouldn't do that. Xu Dongsheng feels like he won't be able to find a job anytime soon, so... I want you to find him a job in the countryside with slightly better conditions."
"Oh, that's easy. I can just tell my uncle."
"Thank you, Wei Hong. Sorry to trouble you again. I'll tell Xu Dongsheng when the time comes so we can be prepared.
I heard that the difference in the location of the rural work is quite large. In the better places, the work points in the village brigade are even higher than those we get in the city."
"He's going to the countryside, not to enjoy a good life. How could he have such good conditions? I can only say that the place I chose for him is not the Northwest."
"Wei Hong, I'll do whatever you say. I'm just a messenger..."
The voice became softer and softer, and in the end it could no longer be heard. The two people outside must have walked far away.
Lin Xiaotong's legs were almost numb from standing, so she ran out to breathe some fresh air.
Thinking of the conversation he heard that night, he clicked his tongue twice.
If Xu Dongsheng knew that Chen Lan said this to Qin Weihong, he would probably be so angry that he would vomit blood.
I was originally planning to get a job opportunity, but I didn't expect that I would be packed up and sent to the countryside.
Life is really unpredictable.
This matter is still a commotion.
…
When she got off work in the evening, He Cuicui was going to the post office to pick up the mail, and Lin Xiaotong was going to the state-owned restaurant next door to pack some cold dishes.
They happened to go together, and when He Cuicui entered the house to get the letter, she met Qin Weihong.
Of course, the two of them didn't say hello to each other, and they just did their own things tacitly.
He Cuicui walked to the door with the letter and unexpectedly met the scammer she had met on a blind date before.
Without even looking at him, she went out through another door.
What bad luck.
The man's face froze, but he continued to maintain a smile and started chatting with Qin Weihong.
"Xiaotong, I just ran into Lou Yu. That man actually still works at the post office."
"Ah, did he talk to you?"
"I ignored her and walked away without even looking at him."
As soon as He Cuicui finished speaking, Lin Xiaotong saw Qin Weihong smiling coquettishly.
"Hiss~ No way, he's not going to target Qin Weihong again, is he?"
