Chapter 54 Black Leather Shoes



Zhao Dashan was still wearing the same white shirt and gray pants, but this time he was without his glasses, and Bi Yue was more pleased with him. He and the two siblings were waiting for the bus in the county town.

Bi Yue and his five spines and six beasts were bored and started to study "Five Senses".

Dashan, hmm, about 1.78 meters tall, with a high nose bridge, a small mouth, and thin lips...

Indeed, the eyes are too small!

But Bi Yue is good at observing the "good points" of others.

She had a quick mind, but at this moment, after being rocked by the ox cart for two hours, she felt a little "crazy".

I scratched the tip of my nose. I wasn't complaining, I really believed it...

Dress up a little, except for the lack of height, you might end up looking like Rain!

Before Rain becomes famous!

Listening to Bi Cheng and Zhao Dashan talking, their voices were okay, baritone, Bi Yue thought of Rain's song... La la la... La la la la!

With a little packaging, she can turn Dashan, a "good-for-nothing", into a treasure. When he becomes famous, she becomes his agent and gets his commission.

By then, she won't have to bother with this effort!

He kicked the sack at his feet.

Zhao Dashan had been secretly observing Bi Yue with his peripheral vision. When he saw Bi Yue kicking the sack, he waved his hand to interrupt Bi Cheng's "nonsense" and asked Bi Yue with concern and caution:

"Can't carry it? Or is it that I didn't bring enough? Xiaoyue, if it's not enough, I'll ask my brother to go up the mountain to get some more and I'll send it to you tomorrow."

Bi Yue smiled, and Zhao Dashan felt like he could see a rainbow in his heart.

Liking someone is silly, adorable, and without any reason. A man's love is sometimes purer.

"Come on, Brother Dashan, this is enough of a thank you. Besides..." Bi Yue laughed again: "Your train ticket is more valuable than it, and you're still giving it away? We have to be good at accounting, right?"

What Zhao Dashan was thinking was: If possible, I also want to go to Kyoto, because you are in Kyoto.

He waved to the bus heading from the county to Harbin, feeling very reluctant to leave.

I was complaining in my heart, why did I only stay for two days?!

It was the same person who took the bus and climbed the train with the "huge sum of money" on his back, and this time no one could steal the brother and sister.

Bi Yue did not regard Bi Yue and Bi Cheng as people fleeing famine or going to the city to work. She thought that it was giving face to the two siblings!

The brother and sister held the handles, with two sacks of hazelnuts at their feet.

As soon as I got on the bus, it was crowded with people, some carrying sacks on their shoulders, their foreheads sweating, and people standing in the aisle kept avoiding them for fear of being hit!

Bi Cheng is hardworking and has to help his sister from time to time.

He now understood that his sister would be upset if she didn't think about making money for a day. She would get angry if she stayed at home and was trapped!

Zhao Dashan asked his brother to pick two sacks of hazelnuts in the mountains and send them to the Bi family.

Two days before the departure, Zhao Dashan happened to have a Sunday off and Bi Yue was on vacation in her hometown, so naturally he went to Bi's house more frequently.

And he didn't come empty-handed, he came well prepared this time.

They said they were buying hawthorn cakes and snacks for Bi Sheng, and canned food for grandpa Bi Fu.

Bi Yuedang, Zhao Dashan came to the house with gifts even though it was not a festival, and it was to return the roast chicken!

I guess it was because my younger brother Bi Sheng’s loud voice that day, shouting for chicken feet, might have been heard by the other party.

No matter what the reason is, Bi Yue feels that Brother Dashan is indeed a very down-to-earth person.

Hearing him chatting with his eldest brother, he seemed quite reliable and not so childish and ridiculous! He felt a little closer to him and took the initiative to talk to Zhao Dashan. He also asked:

"Brother Dashan, are there any ripe hazelnuts on the mountains near us?" There was no explanation, and there was no reason.

Perhaps, Chu Yifeng's comment that Bi Yue is a "money-grubber" is true!

Of course, later, when she found out that she had the nickname "money-slinger", she got angry. Bi Yue only admitted that she knew how to live!

A few days before Bi Yue was about to leave home, she'd been wandering around Zhaojiatun. She was used to trading goods, and she was thinking about whether she could bring something to Kyoto to earn some money, even if it was just enough for a train ticket! Going there empty-handed was too much of a waste!

I was just thinking about carrying the cucumbers and green onions from the back garden at home.

Just like that, we had two sacks of hazelnuts.

Hazelnuts are very common in Northeast China, but their actual ripening period is around mid-September.

But it was the 1980s, and especially near the mountains, where there were villages close to each other, the adults would go into the mountains early in the morning to get some snacks for the children.

No one really waits until the hazelnuts are ripe to pick them. If you wait that long, you won’t even be able to see the hazelnut skins by then.

The bus really drove away, and the brother and sister carrying sacks appeared again at Harbin Railway Station. Bi Yue wiped the sweat from her forehead with her arm and looked up at the big clock in front of Harbin Station again.

My tired body has almost rested, that’s good!

After returning home, I felt at ease, with my father and mother;

I fed my grandfather with my own hands and heard his words "study hard" which merged with the words in my dream;

I paid money to my family and solved the urgent problem;

Seeing my cheerful aunt and all the difficulties she has faced over the years due to her poor family background, I have a plan in mind. When I make money and can't make ends meet, I will support my aunt together!

This time, Bi Yue carefully looked at the time on the big clock...

Don’t give up, keep moving forward!

A few thousand dollars, how can that be enough? It's not enough to do anything! Can't you just listen to your mom and save money? If you don't have money, no matter how much you save, it's not enough!
