On the morning of the second day of the first lunar month, Yuan Fangguo and Li Chunli went through many twists and turns and missed two minibuses. Finally, they arrived at Damiao Town at 11 o'clock in the morning.
Damiao Town is a big town, and it is especially lively during the Spring Festival. There are a lot of people in the town. It seems that even those living in the countryside have flocked to the city during these two days. The streets are crowded with people, and there is no extra space.
After half a year of contact, the fellow villagers in Jiangnan City have become very familiar with each other, and the relationship between them is very strong, like an unbreakable organization.
Zhao Yong also brought his wife and children, and everyone sat at the table.
Yuan Fangguo and Li Chunli also brought them gifts, a bottle of Hongtashan cigarettes each, and a red envelope for Zhao Yong's child.
While eating, Yuan Fangtai told Yuan Fangguo that he could apply for a driver's license, but a processing fee of 500 yuan would be charged per person.
"When can it be done?" Yuan Fangguo asked quickly.
"It's estimated to be about two months. The most important thing is that there is no need to take an exam." Yuan Fangtai said.
Yuan Fangguo was not in a hurry to get a driver's license. Two months was not a long time. He agreed immediately and asked Li Chunli if she needed a driver's license.
"I can't even drive, so forget it." Li Chunli actually wanted to drive too. Two days ago, in the old cadre compound where Old Mrs. Wu lived, she saw at least several female drivers. In her eyes, these female drivers were all heroic and majestic, just like the ancient Mulan.
"That's easy to learn. I can teach you."
"Then we have to buy a car." Li Chunli couldn't help but laugh.
"I can buy it in Guangzhou. It's cheaper there, and then drive back from Guangzhou." Yuan Fangguo already had an idea in his mind. Once he had a driver's license and had a certain financial ability to buy a car, he planned to go to Guangzhou to buy a smuggled car. In coastal areas, the price of smuggled cars is basically about two-thirds of that in the regular market, and some are even lower.
"Okay, then I'll apply for one too." After making up her mind, Li Chunli said in a low voice.
"Second brother, do two, and we'll send over everything we need later."
Yuan Fangtai nodded and said, "Okay, I'll get it done for you as soon as possible."
Since everyone was from the same hometown and had similar personalities, they were as cordial as family members during the banquet. Everyone drank a lot of wine.
When we finally left the hotel, many of us were driven back.
Yuan Fangguo also drank a lot. When he went back, he felt his stomach churning and felt very uncomfortable. He wanted to vomit but couldn't.
So, he chose a secluded place and put his fingers into his throat. "Wow..." This trick really worked, and Yuan Fangguo vomited almost everything in his stomach.
After vomiting, he seemed to feel that most of the alcohol in his body was taken away by the vomited filth.
Li Chunli also noticed Yuan Fangguo squatting in the grass and vomiting on the side of the road. She was a little worried about Yuan Fangguo's health, so she quickly ran into the grass. Just then, she saw Yuan Fangguo with a calm face, walking out as if nothing had happened.
"Fang Guo, are you okay?" Li Chunli asked with concern.
Yuan Fangguo shook his head and told Li Chunli that he felt much better after vomiting, and his mind was much clearer than when he didn't drink.
"Let's go back quickly. I'll make you some porridge in the evening to nourish your stomach." Li Chunli said.
"Okay." Yuan Fangguo did not refuse, but answered immediately.
It took more than an hour to take the bus back from the temple. By the time the two of them got back, it was already past four in the afternoon.
Although there was basically no business during the first month of the lunar year, Yang Xuexiu, who had nothing to do and no relatives to visit, still helped to look after the store. Gao Dapeng had come once before, and when he saw that she was the only one in the stationery store, he said a few words evasively and left quickly like a thief.
"Xiu, didn't you go out to play today?" Li Chunli asked with a smile.
Yang Xuexiu smiled and said, "Sister Chunli, I don't know where to go. I don't have any relatives here. It would be nice to read a book or watch TV."
"I'll take you to the market tomorrow, do you want to go?" The whole country is on holiday now, and many people are visiting relatives and friends during the first month of the lunar year. After resting for two days, Yuan Fangguo and Li Chunli decided to go to the market in the largest county under Chengdu City tomorrow to sell as many of the remaining electronic products as possible.
When Yang Xuexiu heard this, he agreed without hesitation.
"Sister, you can also call Dapeng." Yang Xuexiu reminded quickly.
Li Chunli was a little embarrassed. "Yes, Fang Guo, invite Dapeng to dinner tonight."
The three were chatting when suddenly they saw a black car stop in front of their stationery store. They were all a little surprised and didn't know who the visitor was.
Li Chunli was even more nervous. She seemed to feel that the person sitting in the black car should be Xiao Mingliang.
If it really is Xiao Mingliang, then they will definitely not stay quiet today.
