Wearing eighty books, the little widow turns into a rich woman

207 Chapter 209 Let's get engaged too
Lin Changyou said with a smile: "Zhixue sincerely invites you, so let's go over together and get together."

Chang Lin had spoken, so Lin Lan had no choice but to agree to go there together. She went into the house and took two bags of sugar and picked up some eggs. The group went out to wait for Yang Liying's family to meet on the way. A group of about ten people walked towards Wang Zhijiao.

When we arrived at Yang Liqun's house, everyone was polite and friendly again.

The table of the Eight Immortals in the Wang family hall was full of wine and dishes, and Lin Lan saw freshly stewed sweet-skinned duck and some stewed vegetables on the table.

The sweet-skinned duck is brownish-red in color, crispy and slightly sweet in skin, tender in meat, and neither fat nor greasy in the mouth.

The skin duck is stewed with the native duck raised by the farmer, and it is the authentic sweet-skin duck.

Lin Lan remembered that the stewed sweet-skinned duck was very good at the one next door to her house. When her mother bought it, she and her sister could eat a duck.

My parents didn't make much money at the time, so I bought it once in a while, and I was reluctant to eat it, so I left it for the sisters, who always felt that they didn't have enough.

Later, the conditions at home improved, and the stewed ducks may have been raised for feed, and they no longer tasted like childhood when they were eaten in the mouth.Now I can taste the familiar taste again.

Yang Liqun said with a smile: "Don't worry about our business now, the Zhao family of the second team has also started to make braised meat. The sweet-skinned duck and pig's old shells in his house are the best, and they are sold within two hours after they are picked at the entrance of the cave. Finished, this is made by his family in the afternoon."

Yu Xiufang said: "It doesn't matter, we will also buy these braised ducks during the Chinese New Year. Don't be afraid of the jokes of our in-laws and mothers. We haven't eaten braised ducks for many years."

Lin Zhang nodded: "As long as you have the craftsmanship, you can use it if you want."

Wang Zemin also said that Yang Liqun earned more in a month from setting up a stall than in a year in the brigade.

Ever since he went out to set up a stall with Yang Liqun, he has met more businessmen, and his thinking has changed. He regrets that he used to treat his wife as an outsider.Lend the hard-earned money to a few white-eyed wolves.

A few women eat well, and the men sit in the main room and set up a farming team. From the family contract responsibility system a few days ago, to the opening of the big market.

Speaking of the facade house in the south of the city, Wang Zemin and Zhao Dehai thanked Li Xiangyang and Lin Lan again.

If the two of them hadn't persuaded them to buy a house, based on their knowledge, they would either use the money they earned to repair the house, or hide it at home, take it out to look at and count when they have time, they would never have dreamed of buying a house in the city.

It took two hours for a meal before Lin Lan and the others bid farewell and went home. They still had to prepare cakes for tomorrow morning.

Li Xiangyang talked with Lin Changyou for a while, and then rode back home.

After Zhang Guangming and his wife visited Wang's house, they agreed to have a good time in the twelfth lunar month and get engaged to Zhang Yuru and Wang Zhixue when the parents and children of both families were satisfied.

The three members of the Zhang family left satisfied, and Lin Changyou was left behind by Li Xiangyang and Lin Lan.

Early the next morning, Lin Lan and Li Xiangyang took Lin Changyou to visit the shop in the south of the city.The shop has been repaired, the wires in the house have been re-drawn, and the house looks much brighter after the walls are painted.

The shop in front and the yard at the back were partitioned off. The sweet-scented osmanthus tree was on Lin Lan's side, and the well was in Yang Liqun's yard.

The houses in the city are all equipped with running water pipes, so I don't worry about running out of water.

Li Xiangyang smiled and said, "Let's go to the vegetable market to see how they are doing?"

"it is good!"

The three of them came out of the house, closed the door and turned right into Caishi Street. On both sides of the street, blocks were built with bricks and cement, and a cement slab about 1.2 meters long was laid on it.

In the middle section, there are two rows of iron frames welded with iron pipes on both sides of the street.

Li Xiangyang pointed to the iron racks: "These two rows are racks for hanging meat. I heard that after the market opens, there will be meat at bargain prices and meat with fixed prices. The priced meat will be supplied by ticket, and the bargained prices are sold by butchers like me."

Lin Lan counted, and there were ten booths in two rows: "Have you inquired, is the booth fee expensive?"

"Traders have fixed stalls, and they charge a certain sanitation fee and stall fee for each cement board. Farmers don't pay stall fees when they come to set up stalls."

"Yes! That's how it should be. For a long time, the dealer should pay the fee, and the farmer comes to sell a la carte to subsidize the family, and the fee should be exempted."

Chang Lin recalled that when he was young, he would go to the East Market to buy things during the Chinese New Year one year, and the streets were bustling with crowds of people. He said with a smile, "It will definitely not be crowded when the market opens."

Lin Lan also remembered that when her parents took her to the market when she was a child, the heels of her shoes were trampled off several times when she walked along the street: "Only when it is lively and lively will it have the flavor of the new year."

In another 30 years, this is not allowed and that is not allowed. You can’t even hear the sound of the New Year. How can there be a taste of the New Year!
The three of them came out from Caishi Street and went to Yucai Road.

Li Xiangyang pointed to the front and the two small western-style buildings next to each other on the right: "Uncle Lin, those two houses are the houses of Xiaolan and me. The two houses on the opposite side are Dongzi's and Dingbang's."

Lin Changyou stood in front of the gate, clapped his hands and said with a smile, "Not bad! This house is really magnificent!" He sighed in his heart, no wonder the second child said that he wanted to build such a house, and all the children had to be able to build such a small ocean house. Lou, my life is not in vain.

Holding a small hoe, the old lady saw a few people standing in the opposite yard, opened the gate and walked over, and said cheerfully, "A rare visitor, my father-in-law? When did you come?"

"I came here yesterday." Lin Changyou gave the old lady a thumbs up, "My uncle and uncle are so lucky!"

The old lady smiled and nodded: "Yes! I have been blessed by my grandson in my life, and I have also lived in a small mansion! I will go to the opposite side to see later, and it has been tidied up there."

Li Xiangyang pointed to the open door on the first floor: "Our side hasn't been repaired yet, the upstairs is painting and tung oil, if you are allergic, it will be troublesome."

Lin Changyou said: "I'm so allergic to earth paint that I'm going to die, I'll go in and have a look when I get better."

The old lady cheerfully took them to the opposite side and told them that Yang Dingbang had gone to the hospital to change his dressing and hadn't come back yet.

In the living room on the first floor, there are tea tables bought from Xu Ming, wooden sofas, cabinets...

Lin Lan felt that the antique furniture had a relatively strong classical charm and a heavy feeling.

The three sat at Dingbang's house for a while, then rode back to Lin Lan's house.

****
In the afternoon, Lao Li prepared meals, called Dongzi's family and the old lady's grandchildren, and invited Lin Changyou and Lin Lan's family to Li's house, where the two old people met.

Lin Changyou sincerely thanked Lao Li and his son for taking care of his daughter and grandson.

Lao Li also explained the reasons why he opposed the two at the beginning. Lin Changyou felt that if Guozhu and Guoqiang told him one day that they wanted to marry a woman with a child, he would not agree immediately.

The two elders have the same views and appreciate each other's attitude towards things.

Lin Lan, Yao Xiuyun, and Lin Yuezhen packed up the stove and came out. They were also very happy to see the two elders talking happily.

After sending Lin Lan home, Li Xiangyang pulled Lin Lan and said, "Xiao Lan, shall we get engaged in the twelfth lunar month?"
