Chapter 38 38 Rejection, plan to buy a bicycle

On the street not far from the township government.

Looking at the beautiful Xu Yao, Wang Yuan was silent for a long time before saying:
"Planning for the future? Planning means living a good life."

"Huh? That's it?" Xu Yao couldn't help showing a look of disappointment in her eyes.

"Life is very simple, but it is very rare to live a good life." Wang Yuan said with a smile: "First earn more money, and then do something more interesting, more free and happier, it is wonderful to think about it."

"Interested?"

"I can't give you an accurate answer now. After all, people's thinking will change. Three years later, five years later, or ten years later, the specific things of interest may be different. But in general , are all things of interest..."

Before Wang Yuan finished speaking, Xu Yao asked again: "That..."

"what's wrong?"

"Grandma Man said that you have been looking for opportunities to work in the forest farm. Can you really work in the forest farm? I heard that it is quite difficult to enter the forest farm."

"The forest farm?" Wang Yuan was taken aback. When did he say such a thing? Grandma Man couldn't have made it up for him.

Xu Yao is very smart, she fell silent the moment she understood something.

Both of them were silent for a few seconds, Wang Yuan smiled and said, "What about you? What do you think about the future?"

"I..." Xu Yao's eyes flashed light instantly: "I want to go to Shenzhen."

"Ahem, why did you go to Shenzhen? You are a woman."

"What's the matter with women? Comrade Wang Yuan, you have such a bad idea. Women can hold up half the sky... Many people are running to Shenzhen, and many people have become rich.

One of my grandpas was in Treasure Island. He came back some time ago and brought a lot of good things.

He also told us about things in the United States, the United Kingdom, Singapore and other countries. If there is a chance, I would like to go out and take a look. "

Xu Yao said longingly: "We are too poor here. It is said that what they earn in a day is worth what we earn in a year. Upstairs and downstairs, lights and telephones..."

Wang Yuan fell silent for a moment.

Although they live in the countryside, many people are not ignorant. It is normal for people like Xu Yao's family who have relatives outside and come back to visit them to know some things.

It's just that the understanding is quite one-sided. People who come back from outside rarely say that the outside is not good, because it affects the approval.

In this day and age, one was born in a rural area and was able to enter high school, even if one failed to enter university in the end, one would be considered a genius.

Xu Yao's heart is high, and it seems understandable to long for the outside world.

After pressing the road for a while, the two returned to their respective parents. The parents chatted again, and then went home.

Along the way, Grandma Man was asking Wang Yuan for his opinion, but the latter kept silent, and this made Grandma Man angry. When they got home, Grandma Man grabbed him and said anxiously:
"Xiaoyuan, what are you doing with your head slumped? Can you tell me, that girl Xu Yao is quite beautiful, don't you think so?"

"It's not a question of whether to watch it or not, I feel that Xu Yao's heart is very high."

After Wang Yuan heard the footsteps, he turned his head and looked to the rear right, only to see his cousins ​​Wang Meng and Wang Hu sneaking over, their faces full of gossip.

"Hey, bro, are you going on a blind date? How is it, is my sister-in-law pretty?" Wang Hu smiled meanly.

"Go away, don't let me give you a shot."

"Huh? This is a beating. Could it be that your sister-in-law is ugly so you are angry?"

Grandma Man glanced at Wang Meng and Wang Hu, ignored them, and said directly to Wang Yuan:
"They're all from the countryside, so don't they have high spirits? Her parents are also real peasants... Besides, Xu Yao graduated from high school, and you, Xiao Yuan, also graduated from high school. Xiao Yuan, you think too much."

Grandma Man sat at Wang Yuan's house for a while, chatted for a while, and then left.

She came again at noon the next day, her face was as dark as the bottom of a pot, and she brought news from the woman——Xu Yao said that she wanted to find someone of the same age, and Wang Yuan was two years older than Xu Yao, so it was not suitable .

In fact, this was just an excuse, it was just a tactful expression that the woman didn't like Wang Yuan.

Wang Yuan sighed lightly.

Grandma Man thought that Wang Yuan was sad, she quickly smoked a few big pipes, and said directly:
"Xiaoyuan, don't be depressed, it's okay! I'll introduce you to another partner tomorrow. I know all the beautiful girls from all over the world. Well, I promise to introduce someone prettier than Xu Yao."

She thought about eating all the mutton into her stomach, but she didn't get it done, which was very wrong.

"Ahem, Grandma Man, don't worry, it's better to slow down for a while." Wang Yuan was exhausted.

A few days passed by.

Noon today.

Wang Yuan wanted to ride his grandfather's bicycle to the village to buy some pork, but when he arrived at his grandfather's house, he found out that the tire of the bicycle was punctured.

gurgle gurgle~

Pull out the black inner tube, inflate it and press it into the water basin, a string of air bubbles will come out.

This bicycle was quite old, and Wang Yuan rode it frequently during this period, which also aggravated the damage to the bicycle.

Wang Yuan squatted beside his grandfather and said, "Grandpa, let's go to the village to repair the bicycle. If the car breaks down, it must be repaired."

"Okay, I'll go to your grandma to get the money." Grandpa stood up and said.

"Don't look for grandma, I have money."

"What are you doing with your money? Save your money to marry a wife."

The grandpa and grandson pushed their bicycles to the countryside, and they also brought air tubes. The air in the tires would run out every few minutes, so they pumped air every few minutes.

The tires were easy to repair, but Wang Yuan realized that it was time for him to buy a bicycle.

My grandfather's house, my second and third uncle's houses all have bicycles, but my own doesn't.

Of course, when Wang Yuan rides his grandfather's bicycle, his grandfather won't think anything of it. After all, he is his own grandson.

But he took the bicycle away and really delayed Grandpa's affairs. Occasionally, Grandpa didn't even have to ride a bicycle if he wanted to.

the next morning.

Wang Yuan got on the small forest train pulling wood again, he planned to go to the city to buy a bicycle, woo woo woo~ besides besides~
"Little Train~Swinging Melody~"

Sitting in the dark carriage, Wang Yuan didn't feel the beautiful swinging melody, but the aroma of pine wood was really nice.

He staggered all the way to the city, and after getting out of the carriage, the glare of the sun made him slightly unable to open his eyes.

"Little brother, you have to figure out your own way when you go back."

"Yeah, I know, thank you, brother." Wang Yuan greeted the uniformed staff of the forest farm station, and then walked south in the right direction.

Through the streets and alleys.

Soon after arriving at the door of Li Hang's house, Wang Yuan knocked on the door: "Li Hang, are you at home? I know you are at home, come out quickly ~ dong dong dong~"

Buying a bicycle requires an industrial ticket, and the industrial ticket is given by the state, but it is only issued to some high-ranking factory workers and unit personnel.

Wang Yuan didn't have an industrial ticket, so he could only find a way with Li Hang first, and if Li Hang couldn't help him, then he would find another way.
