National Tide 1980.

Chapter 410 New Changes

Similar to the Luo family is the Mi family.

In the harmonious twilight of the small courtyard, in the sound of sporadic firecrackers.

The old couple of the Mi family were also in the brightly lit room, with the TV on, waiting for someone at the dinner table, and arguing.

But the quarrel between them has nothing to do with the big color TV or the marriage of their children.

The main focus of conflict is still the chemical fiber cloth that Aunt Mi brought back as a baby years ago.

"Tell me about you. What are you doing? It's so cold outside during the New Year's Eve. I had to instruct the child to run to Hepingmen. And let her hold so many chemical fiber cloths. It's dark today." , the child hasn’t come back yet? Are you not worried as a mother? "

Master Mi walked around the house like a mill, looking at the sky outside from time to time.

In fact, he just came back from get off work and was already hungry.

I thought about going in to wash my hands and face, and then I went to the table to have a New Year's Eve dinner and spend a good New Year with my family.

But it never occurred to her that her daughter Mi Xiaohui was not at home.

After inquiring, I found out that it was because a person from the vegetable stand of a non-staple food store called Aunt Mi in the afternoon and said that he wanted to buy some chemical fiber cloth from her to bring to relatives on the first day of the new year.

Aunt Mi was greedy for this business, and immediately sent her daughter Mi Xiaohui to deliver cloth.

Can Master Mi feel happy?

A good New Year's Eve has been ruined, and it is inevitable to worry about my 14-year-old daughter.

"Why don't I worry? I want to go by myself, but can I leave? Everything at home cannot be separated from me. What if I don't send Xiaohui to run errands for me? Are you still pointing at you?" ?cut!"

Aunt Mi didn't back down, and also frowned, responding angrily.

However, his hands are still not idle. At this time, he is still arranging those chemical fiber cloths that are like hills in the corner of the room.

Red, purple, green, gray.black, blue...

This naturally made Master Mi more and more angry.

"What else should I do? You shouldn't have bought such old cloth! For 1000 yuan, you have bought the cloth. How long will you have to use it for the rest of your life? The girl and uncle left you some money, so you let you be so bad? It's a big deal. As for people of their age, they are still not mature at all, and they still go out to grab something to buy, and why are old girls joining in the fun. You have become a smart you!"

To be honest, Master Mi regrets it now.

I regret that I shouldn't have tried to find peace in the first place, and let Aunt Mi do whatever she wanted.

If he had known about this scene earlier, he would have forced Aunt Mi to return all these cloths at any rate.

Of course, it's too late to say anything, at most he can only be an afterthought and complain.

But the problem is that Aunt Mi's mouth is not easy to get along with.

After all, he is an experienced salesperson. Arguing with arguments is the most basic quality, and he is not at a disadvantage in arguing.

"Trass? I call it careful sailing for ten thousand years. I'm poor. Have you forgotten the time when you were short of cloth in the first two years? You can't even find a cloth head for mending socks. It's better to save some, save some solid. This cloth When it is put in, it is also cloth. At worst, I will use it to sew quilt covers and make curtains. Besides, maybe the chemical fiber cloth will rise back after a while? Then one thousand will become two thousand! People say, this is called Preserve value!"

Master Mi was completely irritated by his wife's obsession.

"Preserve value? Shit! You understand the word first before you speak. If you have money, you don't leave it for half a year, but if it's worth [-], you just leave it here. If you don't need it, it's waste, and it's not much different from throwing money away. What's more The broadcast said clearly that the price of chemical fiber cloth should be reduced, and the price of cotton cloth should be raised moderately. Weimin also repeatedly urged not to buy chemical fiber cloth. Do you think you are the only smarter in the world? You understand the economy better than the country, and Weimin Can you still do business? How dare you talk about preserving value? Don’t listen to other people’s advice! Stupid, too stupid!”

This comment is indeed in place, but the problem is that people have emotions.

Such belittling persuasion methods, no matter how reasonable they are, are ineffective.

As an audience, Aunt Mi couldn't listen to it at all.

Otherwise, how could she have come to where she is today?
"Why am I so ignorant? Facts speak louder than words. Didn't you see that my cloth has been sold? Besides, polyester has always been more expensive than cotton cloth in the past. You see, isn't the country lowering the price? The more you lose, the more you lose. Sooner or later, you can't stand it, and you have to go back up. I don't believe it, such a good thing will be recognized by no one? Eggs have to be sold for the price of potatoes, can they last for a long time? How can our country have too many things to sell? ?”

Aunt Mi's housewife-style thinking mode and the resulting strong self-confidence cannot but make Master Mi amazed again.

"I really can't praise you. How is it possible? It's better than words? It's not obvious. Don't you think about it, where did Weimin get so many chemical fiber clothes? And let you sell it at a price much cheaper than the market price. Isn’t that all the backlog of the factory. Now it’s all right, the state directly ordered the price to be lowered. Even Weimin was eager to dump it, so it’s no longer counted Let’s touch chemical fiber goods again. You’re not doing it against me. I’ll put the words aside, don’t be too busy with beauty, you’ll be lucky if your cloth can really be sold. If it doesn’t work out, your colleagues will have to look for you after the festival Return it."

It's a pity that no matter how clear the truth is, it is still in vain.

Because Aunt Mi never cares about logic, she usually only believes what she wants to believe.

Especially when I'm emotional, when I'm angry.

That can completely turn a blind eye to all objective facts, listen but not hear, and only live for arguments.

"Hey, why are you so stupid! What's wrong with you not expecting me to make something good? Don't you want to say that this is not attractive in the new year? Do you still want to get down to it this season?"

"Is it me or is it yours? I want to have a good holiday? But does the fact allow it? You, you don't read newspapers or news, you don't hear world affairs with your ears, and you don't know anything about the outside world! In the past, then It is because our industrial production capacity is low, so polyester card and Dacron are expensive. In fact, these are chemical products. Once industrial productivity increases and mass production, they will be worthless. But cotton cloth is different, it is made of cotton, we The land in the country is limited, do you want more? That's why the price is raised. Besides, it also takes care of the enthusiasm of farmers. Just you, you are still an old business. Pull it down, silly old lady!"

"Hey, so according to what you said, the whole circle of co-authors is just to increase the enthusiasm of farmers? Is it enough to suffer from the big brothers of the workers? The country can't treat one another like this. Don't forget, the working class leads everything. At any time, the workers must have enough to eat and drink!"

"Oh, you are so old-fashioned! The times have developed and the economy has changed, but your head is still stuck a few years ago. In a word, you can't keep up! Don't say anything else, your own daughter is running away I went abroad. Let it go, can you believe it? There are also our movie theaters, and now there are fewer and fewer people every day. I tell you this, do you believe it? We don’t treat one more than another? We don’t favor one another, what’s going on in our movie theater?”

"Your nonsense, how could no one watch movies? Why do people who don't watch movies go? Stay at home all day long?"

"Hmph, I really let you talk. Why don't you just sit at home and watch TV. To tell you the truth, just because more and more TVs are bought, the number of movie theaters will decrease. No matter how good a movie is now If there is [-]% to [-]% attendance, it will be the end of the day, and the seats are already full. Look at the neighbors around us, who asks me for movie tickets? Don’t even mention you, even I don’t understand With such a big TV screen, I can’t even see the appearance of people clearly. How can there be a movie to watch? The TV series still looks like sheep shitting every episode. But it’s the fucking truth..."

Fortunately, after all, the personal economic interests for Aunt Mi are higher than those for raising the bar.

No, when she heard that Master Mi's unit economic benefits were not good, Aunt Mi immediately became impatient, and no longer had the willpower to carry the verbal confrontation to the end.

"Ah? Really? His father, I said that your bonuses have been getting less and less recently. Then your leaders have to find a way. You can't keep going like this!"

"If not, what else can we do? All movie theaters are pretty much the same, and we're pretty good. After all, it's the downtown area of ​​Dashilar. The situation in other places is even worse. Besides, if our leaders can find a way, Then he is not a manager in charge of a movie theater. He will be the district mayor or mayor soon? Well, it is not your turn to worry about our movie theater. If you are not so stubborn, I don’t even bother to tell you .Anyway, let me just say a word, today is different from the past, and there will be more and more new things in the future. If your cloth really hits your hands, just don’t regret it.”

After not allowing Aunt Mi to pester her any longer, Master Mi sniffed his nose again.

"Hey, I said, hurry up and take a look at your pot for steaming steamed buns. Your pot has been sitting on the fire for a long time? Is it finished steaming? Don't let the pot dry up."

As soon as he said this, Aunt Mi, who was only busy turning over the cloth, remembered, and quickly put down the cloth in her hand to look at the steamer.

As a result, seeing this, the old lady couldn't help but quarreled.

"Oh, his father, it's up to you, crow's mouth, I'm completely blind with this pot of steamed buns."

"What's the matter? Are you really burning the pot?"

"That's not true, but the flour is wrong. The buns steamed with this rich and strong flour are all flat! What kind of rich and strong flour is this! It can't be raised after adding alkali. The steamed buns are listless and lack energy. It’s not as good as ordinary flour! As soon as you lift the lid of the pot, it shrinks down as soon as you look at it. Damn it. It’s really unlucky when it’s New Year’s Eve. Do you think it’s okay for this person to eat too much? Why? Why do you always invent this new thing? It’s a scam, it’s a scam! This society is the same, it’s nothing to make progress, he can’t just stay put and live for two years, it’s tiring and panic... "

At this time, just outside the No. 2 courtyard of Fan'er Hutong, a flat-bed tricycle stopped.

It was Luo Guangliang who was pedaling, and there were two bottles of tiger bone wine hanging from the handlebar of the tricycle.

Mi Xiaohui with two braids was wearing a big scarf, sitting behind his car with her hands in her sleeves, looking very comfortable and satisfied.

Dare to feel that the bus that this girl took to go home broke down and got on the way, and she was in a hurry because there was nothing to do.

Luo Guangliang saw her when he passed by, so he took the girl back along the way.

"Brother Liangzi, oh, thank you so much. To be honest, I don't even have the energy to go. It's a good thing I met you today. Otherwise, I don't know when I will be back."

After getting off the car, Mi Xiaohui hurriedly thanked her, the little girl is very sensible.

Luo Guangliang was immediately happy.

"You little girl, you have a sweet mouth. Why should I thank you for such a small matter? By the way, next time, if there is such a thing again, you little girl, don't run away by yourself. It's so cold. Find me, I'll run for you and it's over."

Unexpectedly, this little girl's ability to please people is far more than that.

"Oh, brother Liangzi, you are so kind. It would be great if you were my real brother. It's a pity that I'm only the first sister, so I don't want me anymore."

Luo Guangliang was immediately attracted by this pitiful energy.

"Look at what you said, we lived in the same courtyard, and I watched you grow up again. Isn't that just like your brother?"

"That's fine, I will tell others that you are my brother in the future. If someone bullies me, you have to stand up for me."

"Don't worry, if someone really wants to bully you, I'll have to take his arm off. But you... a junior high school student who studies so well, who would bully you?"

"Hey, why not? The boys in our class. There are a few who hate me very much. You don't have to beat them up every day. You don't have to beat them up. As long as you have time to go around the school with me, you can give them hold on..."

Only now did Luo Guangliang fully understand.

But looking at Mi Xiaohui's bright eyes, he just felt that the little girl's scheming was ridiculously childish.

"You girl, you have a lot of tricks. How about you set me up? Okay, I'll go to your school after the new year. Okay? Since I promised you, I won't break my promise. Remember, you When Brother Liangzi speaks, he will always spit and nail each other."

"Oh, brother Liangzi, you really keep your word, that's great! In my heart, you are a great hero who is so righteous. If you were from the Song Dynasty, you would definitely surpass Wu Song. It's up to you, let alone fight , can scare a tiger to death..."

"Hey, who did you learn this routine from? Little sycophant. Well, look at you, your face is turning red from the cold. Don't give me rice soup, go to the hospital and go home quickly, and relax."

"No, I'll just wait for you. Come on, I'll get you some wine, and you lock up the car. Who told me to be your sister? Isn't that right, bro..."
