Advance 200 to buy a car

A military green Beijing jeep was speeding on the dirt road heading to Xiaonanchuan City, raising dust along the way like a roaring tornado.

Mayor Lu Qinglan sat in the back seat of the car, holding the painting "Ganqi Ziying" in his hand.

He looked at this painting for a long time. The layout of the painting was flexible, the brushwork was steady and skillful, and it was completed in one go. It was a pity that the title lacked tone, being more elegant than powerful.

After a long while, he said to Secretary Wu, "Go check the artist of this painting and find out what his relationship is with Zhou Chuzhuo?"

How come he has a private seal for carving jade?

…

In the yard of the educated youth.

Zhou Huaiyue was happily watching Jixiang and Ruyi fighting.

Jixiang is like his father Dahuang, a yellow male dog; Ruyi is like his mother Dahei, a black female dog. Jixiang inherited Dahuang's courage and was completely suppressed by Ruyi, unable to defeat him at all.

After a few bites, he started crying out in pain.

"Alright, alright, stop fighting." Zhou Huaiyue walked over and picked up Jixiang, and pushed Ruyi aside with disgust, "Why are you women so powerful? You are so arrogant and bully others."

"Hehehe." A cute and pleasant laughter came.

At the entrance of the courtyard stood a fair-skinned girl with big, watery eyes, willow-shaped eyebrows, thick lips, and a long, dark braid wrapped around her slender neck and resting on her chest. The blue dress with floral patterns made her look intellectual and elegant. She was truly the most beautiful girl in the village.

Why is it her again!

Zhou Huaiyue raised his eyes and looked over without saying a word. When his eyes were about to move away from her face, the girl called out softly and generously, "Zhou Zhiqing!"

"What's the matter? Caifeng." It turned out to be the village chief's daughter.

Last time, Shen Rushan teased him that he was the son-in-law of the village chief, which made him very unhappy. This was probably the fourth time Caifeng came to the yard since she started borrowing the village chief's bicycle.

"I'm bringing you some of the corn cakes my mother made recently." She picked up the small bamboo basket in her hand, took out a piece from it, and handed it to Zhou Huaiyue.

He glanced at it indifferently. The cake was soft and glutinous, and golden in color. It was not as sticky as Shen Roujiao's. The edge of the cake was browned, soft inside and crispy outside. With the addition of powdered sugar, it tasted sweet. "No, I have more at home. Last time, Jiao... I didn't like it." The one that Jiaojiao brought to him last time was eaten up by him.

Zhou Huaiyue hadn't had anything delicious to eat since that guy started school. The aluminum lunch box in the net bag at the front of the room had been empty, covered with dust. Forget about the delicious braised chicken. It was unfair that they made money but didn't improve the food for their friends.

He will give his opinion next week.

People can pretend not to want to eat, but dogs can’t.

Jixiang, who was in Caifeng's arms, stretched his neck as far as he could, just enough to sniff the cake in Caifeng's hand.

"This puppy's name is Jixiang, right? It wants to eat." Cai Feng pinched off a small piece, put it in the palm of her hand, and the dog's tongue rolled it away.

"Traitor." Zhou Huaiyue put Jixiang on the ground, and it wagged its tail to ask for food from Caifeng. He looked down on such a useless dog and kicked Jixiang's butt in anger.

The little black dog, on the other hand, stood there motionless, looking at Cai Feng vigilantly, "I was wrong to criticize you just now. At the critical moment, it is our Ruyi who can be relied on." Zhou Huaiyue picked up Ruyi and rubbed the dog's head affectionately again and again.

"Zhou Zhiqing, the corn cakes are on the windowsill at the top of the house, remember to bring them in." Caifeng broke off another piece and threw it to Jixiang, who jumped up to catch it.

"Thank you then." It's better to have it than not, so I'll save it for now.

Unexpectedly, after putting the things away, Caifeng not only showed no intention of leaving, but also started playing with Jixiang.

!

"Good luck." Zhou Huaiyue's voice was filled with reprimand, and the puppies were so scared that they immediately ran back to his feet. They were picked up and held in his arms, one on each side.

He looked downcast and asked in confusion, "Do you have anything else to do?"

"Zhou Zhiqing, everyone in our village says that you are a good painter. I want to see some." Caifeng tied her braids with her hands in front of her chest. Her face was pink and she looked shy and timid. She looked very pretty.

"They are all lousy paintings. What's there to see?" Zhou Huaiyue rejected her without understanding the romance, and did not forget to send her away quickly, "Go back, I want to sleep."

The sun hadn't set yet and it was less than seven o'clock, but he actually wanted to sleep. He was so energetic when he was playing with the dog, so this excuse was so fake.

"Okay then, I'm leaving. Bye." The girl was too shy to show it, and after being rejected repeatedly by Zhou Huaiyue, her mood didn't get much better. She threw her braid back and walked out of the yard with a little anger.

He was tactless, rude, and didn't even say goodbye. How did Dad know that he was not an ordinary person? That's why I despise him.

Cai Feng was thinking angrily all the way, and met Shen Rushan at the door of her house, "Big boy, why are you here?"

Cai Feng, Shen Rushan, and Shen Tiancheng were classmates in elementary and middle school. They were already familiar with each other and could always chat with each other when they met. Moreover, the situation was different now. They had made a name for themselves in the field of medicinal materials and were on the verge of becoming bigger and stronger.

"Your father came to chat with me and asked me about getting medicinal herbs." As Shen Rushan spoke, he stared at the small bamboo basket in her hand, which was empty.

"My father said that you, Tiancheng, and that educated youth did a great job. You are the leaders of our village who are working hard to get rich." Caifeng is indeed an elementary school teacher. Shen Rushan blushed with praise and waved his hands, "No, no."

"Let me ask you something." Cai Feng lowered her voice and whispered, "What kind of person is that educated youth, Zhou Huaiyue?"

Wow, I hit the muzzle of the gun when I was shooting a bird, and now I’m asking about the prime minister.

Shen Rushan's eyes slanted to one side, and he said lightly, "That's it."

Of course, how could his love rival say anything good about him?

"What is that? Don't hesitate." Cai Feng was also a simple-minded person. She followed the path pointed out by others and got on the road easily.

"She is just lazy and gluttonous, arrogant, and weird. My little sister is so cute and capable, she knows everything and can do anything. But guess what! He still looks down on her. Humph, don't you see yourself? What's so great about you?" Shen Rushan became angrier and angrier as he spoke, and he even forgot to cover up.

"Don't worry, don't worry. Let me think about it. Do you mean that Zhou Huaiyue doesn't even think highly of his own apprentice?"

Caifeng thought Zhou Zhiqing was very caring towards Shen Roujiao. She heard Zhou Huaiyue chatting with the two dogs several times, always talking about Jiaojiao the elder and Jiaojiao the younger. The tone of their voices was so arrogant that people who didn't know their relationship would think Jiaojiao was his object.

"I don't understand him. One moment he seems nice, the next moment he seems disgusting." Shen Rushan recalled the last time Shen Roujiao had a nosebleed because she misunderstood that they were in love. Look at how capable Zhou Huaiyue is. He doesn't even bother to look for Xiaomei, as if Xiaomei would like him.

"Sister Roujiao is such a good girl. She has even been to the county governor's house, but she still doesn't catch his eye." Caifeng was happy. She could finally tell her father that Zhou Huaiyue was not as good as he thought and had a lot of weird problems.

…

"A-choo! A-choo!" Zhou Huaiyue, who was reading a picture album, sneezed twice.

One curse, two thoughts.

Is someone thinking about me?

Zhou Huaiyue looked at the blank space among the paintings on the wall and smiled foolishly. He thought someone was thinking about him, but he didn't know that it might be two people scolding him.

…

In a blink of an eye, it was the weekend again. This time, Zhou Huaiyue did not go to the village chief's house to borrow a car. Instead, Shen Rushan went to borrow it.

The village chief was very puzzled. After asking around, he found out that Zhou Huaiyue had posted a note on the Shen family's front door and had taken the bus to the county town early. "This kid is really weird."

At the south entrance of the county town.

Shen Roujiao was following behind Brother Hu Zi, recording the price list of the herbalists. Hu Zi told them the price according to the grade, and she weighed the weight and calculated the total price.

The two of them had just finished packing the herbs after finishing an order, and were thinking of taking a break to drink some water. As a result, they saw Zhou Huaiyue standing outside the door, neither greeting anyone nor coming in, just standing there like an iceberg.

?

What does this mean? Is Master Zhou acting up again?

"Master, where is my brother?" Shen Roujiao rushed out and looked left and right behind Zhou Huaiyue, but didn't see anyone.

"He came here on bicycles with Rushan." Zhou Huaiyue's unhappiness was clearly written on his face.

?

What's going on?

Shen Roujiao's first reaction was that the three of them were quarreling and deliberately splitting up into two groups. When she wanted to persuade them, she noticed that Zhou Huaiyue was alone, with nothing in his hands, not even the Phoenix bicycle.

She suppressed her surprise and asked calmly, "Master, where is your car?"

"I came here by bus. Shen Roujiao." Zhou Huaiyue called out her full name, which made Jiaojiao inexplicably nervous. She always felt that she had made a big mistake and upset the God of Wealth.

"Master, don't call me, I'm scared." Being quick to admit one's mistake is one of Shen Roujiao's great advantages.

Women who know how to act coquettishly have the best luck, and women who know how to show weakness also have good luck.

A woman like an eagle should also allow herself to be tired, afraid, and sad. It is not terrible to show weakness, but it is terrible to endure the hardship without being tough.

"Shen, Rou, Jiao, I want an advance of 200 yuan." Zhou Huaiyue is very cunning. The more you say you are afraid, the more he will emphasize it, and you will have no good life if he is unhappy with you.

"What's wrong? Why do you want such a large advance?" Shen Roujiao didn't expect that Master Zhou, who regarded money as dirt, would actually ask for money. Could it be that the God of Wealth's love for money system has awakened, and he plans to get rid of them and go it alone?

"I want to buy a bicycle." Zhou Huaiyue's desire was so strong that he didn't want to wait any longer.

!

Oh my god, the master really needs to work on his own. With a bicycle, he can dig herbs and sell them by himself, and completely separate himself from them.

"Master! Did my brother make you angry? Master, don't worry, I will definitely stand by you, and we will talk to him together later. Master!" This voice was tortuous and very pleasant to hear. "We can be angry, but we can't overturn the table and break up the partnership. That's not fair."

Others give a date after a slap, but Shen Roujiao gives a date after a slap.

"Who wants to break up? I just want to buy a bicycle." Zhou Huaiyue knew that Shen Roujiao was thinking about something.

ah?

I just started my business, and I haven't dug up 1,000 kilograms of Rehmannia root yet, so I'll save as much as possible. Besides, the village chief has a nice bicycle, and he promised to let me ride it whenever I want, so why should I buy anything else?

Good steel should be used on the blade. It won't be too late to buy some when the medicinal materials purchasing station is set up. Why do you have to buy it now? There is no need.

"Master, ..." Just as he was preparing to give a long speech and was about to dig the door to the end.

Zhou Huaiyue interrupted her abruptly with just three words, "Shen...rou...jiao..." It would be no exaggeration to say that he was gritting his teeth and every word was cold. It was too creepy.

"Buy it! You must buy it! Whoever doesn't buy it is a puppy!"
