Chapter 242: Getting Money to Do Things
The reality is that in just a few months, Fu Jingyou went to a big city and bought a bicycle for a hundred yuan!
The events were indeed different from what she had experienced in her previous life.
But Fu Jingyou's life is clearly moving in a good direction!
According to the current trend, even if Fu Jingyou cannot become a wealthy man like she did in her previous life,
If you can get a regular job early in this era, there will be many benefits in the future.
As she was thinking about it, Chen Miaomiao suddenly recalled the scenes of her recent encounters with Lu Miao.
Lu Miao doesn't have to work in the fields. Every day he either takes a walk or lies on the chair in front of the door to rest.
You can always see her holding something to eat.
The permanent ones are nuts.
Maybe it was because Fu Jingyou had just returned from Tianjin recently, so he could still see her eating fried dough twists.
Tianjin's fried dough twist is a specialty of her hometown. How long has it been since she last had it?
It’s really frustrating to compare yourself with others!
Why?
The team has been getting busy lately, so it's not easy to sneak into the black market in town anymore.
Chen Miaomiao usually exchanges eggs with several aunts in the team to satisfy her hunger, and spends money like water.
The money I saved during the winter has been almost spent.
She hasn't even eaten eggs for several days...
What Lu Miao is enjoying now should have been hers!
It was Lu Miao who stole her! !
Chen Miaomiao was filled with resentment and anger.
"Chen Zhiqing, what are you still standing there for?"
After Chen Miaomiao got ashore, she didn't go to the fields for a long time.
My sister-in-law, who was planting rice in the field, shouted:
"This acre of land is divided among the three of us. Come down quickly when you're done resting!"
“…”
Chen Miaomiao raised her lips and said stiffly:
"I have to pee urgently, I'll come back as soon as I go to the bathroom!"
As she spoke, Chen Miaomiao turned around and left without caring what the two sisters-in-law in the field said.
"This... this is really true, a lazy donkey will pee more!"
One sister-in-law spat, and then turned to the other sister-in-law who was bending over to plant rice seedlings beside her and said:
"I won't indulge her bad habits! I'll do the ones on the outside, you do the ones on the other side, and leave the middle for her!"
"I understand..."
…
When Fu Jingyou returned home, he caught up with Lu Miao taking out the silk that had been opened a while ago and dried in the sun.
Also taken out were the leftover scraps from previous cloth purchases.
"You're back!"
Fu Jingyou nodded his chin and parked his bicycle under the jujube tree at the door.
"What is this for?"
"It's a nice day today, pick these up and make two small quilts."
As Lu Miao spoke, he walked towards the bicycle with a small red flower hanging on the front.
"One bed, one mattress cover. If the baby doesn't want to sleep, you can use it to wrap the baby up."
Lu Miao didn't know how to put it, but that was his impression.
Babies who are unable to move are always wrapped up and held.
"Did buying the bike go smoothly?"
"smoothly."
Fu Jingyou nodded his chin and took the white silk tied with thread from her hand, which was softer than cotton.
"What steps should we take now? You sit down, tell me, and I'll do it."
"My aunt and I can't handle it alone, so we're waiting for you to come back and help us... Please move the big table out first."
Lu Miao asked Fu Jingyou to move out the large table in the main hall. Later, when tearing the silk, the table top would serve as a template for the quilt.
The torn edges of the silk will then be placed on the four corners of the table.
The final quilt outline is almost the same shape as the table top.
A perfectly square quilt is definitely not good-looking, but there is currently nothing else more suitable for making a template.
This is the only way for now.
People were busy making silk quilts in front of the Fu family's door.
The other side.
Chen Miaomiao went to the single-family adobe houses in the village near the back mountain.
At that time, adobe houses were common in rural areas, and there were very few real red brick houses.
In Dahe Village, the adobe houses at the end of the village are particularly dilapidated.
Just because the people living there are either old widowers or lazy bachelors.
I work three days a week and rest for two days, with no work points and no financial income.
The house was broken and there was no money to repair it, so it naturally looked dilapidated.
Lu Miao had a face like Guanyin. Whenever he went out, not only would the young men in the village turn their heads to peek at him, but the lazy man He Sangui would also often hide in the fields to peek.
Chen Miaomiao was in the black market, and she had run into him several times while stealthily picking cotton from the fields.
There are some things that may not require her intervention at all in the future.
Thinking of this, Chen Miaomiao bravely found He Sangui.
He Sangui only needs to get her one thing in exchange for a high reward.
"I only want that. If you can get it for me, I'll give you two dollars."
He Sangui nodded repeatedly, but asked curiously:
"That thing is very dangerous. What do you want it for? Aren't you afraid..."
"Just take the money and do the job, you don't need to know anything else!"
Chen Miaomiao frowned and looked gloomy.
Thinking of something, Chen Miaomiao added:
"You don't have a wife yet, do you? If you do what I say and do it well, I guarantee you'll get married this year!"
"Is this true?"
He Sangui didn't believe it.
But who cares whether it’s true or not!
Anyway, he must get the two dollars first!
The other people in the team work hard all year round, and after earning enough food to feed themselves, they can only make two or three dollars.
Now that he can easily earn two dollars, he can't let this opportunity go.
He Sangui rubbed his hands together and smiled flatteringly, pretending to be greedy: "When will you give me the money?"
"You get the things here, and then you take the things and I take the money."
"Okay... Then when I get it, I'll go to the educated youth camp to find you?" "Don't go to the educated youth camp..."
Chen Miaomiao's heart tensed for a moment, her brows furrowed and her pupils flickered, and finally she said:
"There's a thick-legged locust tree at the corner of the pond at the entrance of the educated youth camp. Twist a piece of straw rope..."
"If you find the thing, tie a rope around the waist of the locust tree. When I see it, I will go to the back mountain to find you before dark in the evening."
"Okay, but we agreed that the money must be paid, otherwise..."
He Sangui nodded, and his eyes suddenly became unfriendly.
Chen Miaomiao snorted and glanced at He Sangui with sarcasm and contempt:
"Don't worry, but we also need to follow the rules. If a third person finds out about this, you won't get a penny of your money!"
"OK."
What she can't get.
Lu Miao can’t even think about it!
"Oh……"
Lu Miao.
Since you insist on making me unhappy.
You have to be against me.
Then go to hell.
After finalizing the cooperation with He Sangui, Chen Miaomiao left the house on the back mountain with a gloomy expression.
After working in front of the Fu family's door for an entire afternoon, he finally pulled out the quilt cores for two small quilts.
In the evening, Lu Miao and Fu Jingyou worked together in the kitchen to prepare dinner.
There was a kerosene lamp on the table in the main room. Tang Mei took the two layers of backing that she had put together in the afternoon and laid one layer on the upper and lower sides of the quilt.
Holding the needle and thread, he carefully fixed the stitches.
