Chapter 33 Let's Move Away
"How could this happen?!" Hang Jingshu never thought that such a thing would happen in his family.
There are only a dozen or so households in the village on the mountain, and they have lived here for generations. How could such a thing happen?
Hang Renshan originally wanted to take a cigarette, but after looking at the girl, he put it back.
"Nothing was lost, it's just that the house was turned upside down," Wang Silan whispered to comfort her daughter, "Maybe he saw how much money our family has made recently, so he got jealous."
Hang Jingshu didn't expect this to be the reason.
Well, I made my family suffer enough in my last life, and my third brother didn't even get into college, so naturally other people wouldn't pay too much attention to it.
But in this life, I found a good job, my third brother went to school safely, and my family's life was getting better and better. It was inevitable that some people would be jealous.
Thinking of this, Hang Jingshu felt a chill on his back.
Who would have thought that someone who greets you with a smile every time you meet someone is secretly planning to break into your house and steal things?
In this life, Hang Jingshu is determined to get better and better.
Thinking of this, a crazy idea suddenly popped up in my mind, and Hang Jingshu suggested: "Mom and Dad, why don't we move to the county town?"
Wang Silan was stunned for a moment, then immediately denied it: "What are you talking about, Silly? How can we move to the county town?"
The couple has lived in a small mountain village all their lives, so of course they would deny their young lady's suggestion.
But Hang Jingshu didn't think so in his heart. "Mom and Dad, I heard that the county is going to build a factory, and many places are recruiting people. If our family becomes a formal employee, won't we earn more than farming?"
At this time, Hang Jingshu also remembered something. In 1985, rural enterprises developed rapidly, which was another opportunity.
There are few people in the small mountain village, but now that this has happened, it is better to just move away.
A lot of things happened in 1984. Not only did we achieve a breakthrough in Olympic gold medals, but we also held a meeting to decide the future development direction of township enterprises.
In her previous life, Mo Xiaojuan and her family seized this opportunity and moved to the county town, where they rented a shop to do business.
It will grow bigger and bigger in the future.
If she can do it, Hang Jingshu thinks his family can do it too.
My parents have been honest people all their lives. Although they can’t be workers, they can still run a small business.
As long as there is the slightest chance, Hang Jingshu will not let it go.
However, judging from the current situation, it will take some time to convince parents.
You have to earn the money first!
Only when you have money can you have the confidence to take action and your parents can feel at ease.
Hang Jingshu secretly vowed in his heart that he would work harder when he returned.
In the afternoon, Hang Jingshu drew a few simple patterns and handed them to Wang Silan: "Mom, look at these, can you draw them with wool?"
Hang Jingshu chose relatively traditional patterns, including red dates, warm orange persimmons, chubby ingots, and round little flowers.
They are all simple and clear little things that you can tell what they are at a glance, and they are also very cute.
You can hang it on your school bag or use it as a keychain.
"Ni, can you make money by weaving this?" Wang Silan couldn't believe it after seeing the drawing drawn by the lady. This little round thing could really be sold?
"Mom, you try it first. You have to choose a nice color, not something gray and gloomy." This is what Hang Jingshu thought of the last time he came back from Liu Kangyuan's place.
"Okay, let's try it first. This thing doesn't waste any thread." Wang Silan didn't want to discourage her girl's enthusiasm, so she could only agree.
The cotton that Hang Jingshu brought back this time was just right for use, so the mother and daughter simply made cotton clothes for their brother in the house in the afternoon.
"It's time for you to make cotton-padded clothes this year. Mom will go buy some cotton tomorrow." Wang Silan looked at the profile of the young lady and felt that she had grown up.
The person becomes white and clean, and looks pleasing to the eye.
Warm time always passes quickly. When I was cooking in the evening, an uninvited guest came to my house.
"Is Fourth Aunt home?"
Hang Jingshu heard the voice and looked outside. It was indeed his cousin, Wang Xiuli.
Wang Xiuli is the daughter of her fifth uncle. She has two younger brothers. When she was young, she loved to compete with Hang Jingshu the most.
"Heini is at home too." When Wang Xiuli saw Hang Jingshu, her expression froze for a moment, but soon turned into shock.
"How come you've become so white?" Wang Xiuli was about to touch Hang Jingshu's face. "Are you willing to put on makeup?"
Hang Jingshu had always been at odds with this cousin, so he dodged Wang Xiuli's hand and said, "I don't have the time to put on makeup. What are you doing here?"
Wang Xiuli continued to follow Hang Jingshu, asking, "What magic medicine did you take? How did you become whiter?"
…
Hang Jingshu was helpless, "Are you okay or not? If not, hurry up and leave."
Every time Wang Xiuli comes, something bad happens.
"Haha, Heini, my dad said that he will invite Fourth Aunt and Fourth Uncle to dinner in two days, and you can go with them then." Wang Xiuli came today for no other reason than to invite people.
After a brief thought, Hang Jingshu immediately understood what his fifth uncle meant. It was obviously about hosting a banquet at Hongmen!
At my fifth uncle’s house, never mind the delicious food, whenever something good happens, it’s never our turn.
Whenever there is any hard, tiring, dirty or smelly work, people will come and hire someone to do it.
"I changed my name to Hang Jingshu. Don't call me Hei Ni Hei Ni all the time. Also, my parents are busy and I'm busy too. Let's talk about it after some time." Hang Jingshu now doesn't like people calling him by his old name.
As for the invitation to dinner, he refused it directly and decisively.
Wang Xiuli immediately became annoyed when she heard Hang Jingshu say this. She pushed her away and retorted, "I think you really went to work in the city, and you are so proud of yourself. Fourth Aunt hasn't said anything yet!"
Wang Silan's face did not look good.
The main reason was because of the thief at home. Except for Wang Wudong who had his own key, no one else in the village could enter the house.
And no one can know so clearly the time when no one is at home.
When she returned home that day, Wang Silan discovered that there were no signs that the lock of the house had been pried open, and there were no footprints or handprints on the wall.
The only one who could come in openly without being seen and suspected by the neighbors was his younger brother.
Everything is still just speculation. Fortunately, no one knows where I keep the money.
Wang Silan did not tell her daughter about her guess, in order to avoid making a big fuss. They were all neighbors and relatives in the same village, so it would be difficult to explain.
As long as he wants to stay in the village in the future, he will have to cover up this matter for now.
"Xiu Li, your fourth uncle and I have to go out to work these two days. If you have anything to say, just tell us directly." Wang Silan still felt awkward and was definitely unwilling to go to her brother's house.
Why not ask him clearly today what his plan is?
At this point, Wang Xiuli's eyes sparkled, and a rare bit of embarrassment appeared on her face. "Fourth aunt, my elder sister is capable of finding a good job for Heini. I have been working at home for several years, and I also want to find a reliable job."
