Last night, someone brought some fish to exchange for sugar, and they were all quite big. An Guorong sold a few of them, and the remaining two were placed in the guard room at the entrance of An Jingzhi School.
An Guorong grabbed some peanuts and thanked the security guard for helping him watch the fish.
Carrying two fish, I went to the principal's house.
It would not be appropriate for him to carry the fish to the office in broad daylight when people were at work, but fortunately he had already found out the principal's address.
The principal's wife was unwilling to accept the fish, so An Guolong put it down and ran away, and asked her to give the other fish to Teacher Wen.
The principal was at a loss whether to laugh or cry after get off work, and couldn't help but sigh that An Jingzhi's family were all honest people. Although he read books to the other party without asking for anything in return, the other party's excellence was the greatest reward for the school.
But the other person's attitude of repaying kindness made him feel that his efforts were appreciated.
As for Teacher Wen, after receiving the fish, she stewed it directly, and An Jingzhi ate it with her.
An Jingzhi sighed, as expected, it was more convenient in the city. He had eaten this fish at home, but it tasted very fishy and he had to pinch his nose to eat it.
But the fish stewed by Teacher Wen didn’t taste fishy at all. He also bought tofu to stew with it. An Jingzhi ate two big bowls of rice.
He counted the amount of food and felt that he would have to ask his father to deliver it again in a few days. As he was growing older, he felt that his appetite was getting bigger and bigger. Teacher Wen had taken good care of him, and he couldn't eat and drink for free anymore.
Even most of the fish his father sent to thank Teacher Wen ended up in his stomach.
Looking at Teacher Wen who was washing dishes, An Jingzhi silently decided that he had to add luster to Teacher Wen's teaching career no matter how high or low.
After An Guorong finished his work, he walked around with his hands in his pockets and bought a lot of things before going home.
The old lady received the silk scarf that An Guorong brought back, and complained about An Guorong wasting money.
But the hand kept touching the scarf, very carefully, for fear that the rough skin on the hand would scratch the scarf.
"I'm already old, why are you still buying me scarves? Don't buy me any more next time."
An Guorong said with a smile: "Mom, what's the difference between old and new? Who says that you can't love beauty when you are old? My mother is now a beauty among the old ladies in the village."
Grandma An is old and felt a little embarrassed by her son's direct praise.
She didn't even ask how much money An Guorong had left. She drove An Guorong away, locked the kitchen herself, and after thinking about it, she put the scarf around her neck and went out.
Fan Chunmei: "What are you doing out here at noon? Isn't it almost time for dinner?"
An Guorong smiled and said, "My mother is just stubborn and goes out to show off."
Fan Chunmei nodded in agreement: "You bought a silk scarf for Mom, what about me?"
An Guorong pulled her into the room and took out another silk scarf from his pocket. Fan Chunmei was delighted and took it to try it on herself.
"Does that look good?"
An Yanhua kept looking at Fan Chunmei, "Mom, let me try too."
"Dad, you are too partial. Why do you only buy things for my mom and grandma and not for me?"
Fan Chunmei reluctantly took off the silk scarf from her neck and said, "Don't let me damage it. Be careful."
An Yanhua pouted in dissatisfaction, but still carefully took the scarf and put it around her neck to gesture.
An Guorong said, "I haven't come to you to settle the score for stealing the candy yet."
"Why don't I buy it for you? You don't know what's going on, girl?"
An Yanhua paused in her gesture with the scarf. She thought her father hadn't noticed.
She felt regretful. If she had known, she would not have stolen the candy. What good was the candy? It would be gone after she ate it. The scarf was a good thing. She could take it out and let others see it.
She felt that her parents were really mean. They never settled accounts with her in person and always took advantage of her later.
But she was in the wrong.
An Yanhua secretly made up her mind that she would never let her parents catch her again! She would never do such a thing again!
After the old lady went out to show off, she saw that Fan Chunmei also had a silk scarf around her neck, but the colors were different.
"Oh no, the fourth brother must have spent all the money."
At dinner, the whole family ate the braised pork bought by An Guorong.
Grandpa An was always very kind to him. He had raised his son to this age, and finally he saw the return of his kindness.
He didn't know that the braised pork was divided into two halves, one half was given to the whole family, and the other half was kept in the room to be heated up slowly.
Even if his family found out, he could still justify it by saying that he bought it with the money he promised to use to sell rabbit meat for his daughter.
Time flies, and it is hot summer in the blink of an eye.
An Guorong's business maintained a moderate scale. In addition to selling to the old lady, the old lady also introduced him to many neighbors. Every time he just had to carry the things to the old lady's house, and then the old lady would distribute them to others, and he would not be responsible for anything else.
If the old lady can sell the things he sold to her to others at a higher price, that is their own ability. At least he makes money.
"Dad, I have a final exam today. Are you nervous?"
That lady was like his subordinate, so An Guorong no longer had to get up early and work late to sell things. Every time he delivered goods, he could also take An Jingzhi to school.
An Guorong rolled his eyes. "It's you taking the test, not your father. Why should I be nervous?"
"The principal said that if you do well in this exam, you'll get a reward of five dollars and a set of stationery."
An Guorong paused and turned to look at him, "Really? I'm really giving you five dollars as a reward?"
"Fourth Uncle, it's true." An Congwu said, "Our teacher also said that the junior high school department will also have rewards."
