The mayor is a little bit thick

Chapter 19 Lao Lai Becomes a Trend

Liang Yanru looked at the clear accounts written on the account book in front of her, and she didn't have the confidence to deny the account, "Oh, Gui Zhi, my family has no money this year, and the money has been given to my little He Peng to pay off the mortgage."

"Third Aunt, I know that your family is also very tight, so you should be pitiful and feel sorry for your nephew and daughter-in-law, so you can help me."

"Oh, that's fine. I'll pay back the change of 750 yuan first." Liang Yanru said, reluctantly taking out seven one-hundred-dollar bills from her trouser pocket, and taking out another one from the other pocket. Fold the change, count out fifty, and pass it to Li Guizhi.

Li Guizhi took the money and looked at it, then looked at Liang Yanru who was unwilling, and sighed helplessly in her heart, forget it, ant legs are also meat, it is better to give than not to give, and the remaining money will be returned slowly Coax it.

"Thank you so much, Aunt San. You've helped me a lot. I'm going back. I'll go for a walk after dinner at night."

Seeing Li Guizhi leave the hospital, Liang Yanru closed the door, "Hmph, go for a walk? Wait, the New Year's Eve will come to ask for a bill."

Li Guizhi returned home with the money, and Wang Honggang, who was lying on the kang, asked, "Have you given it all?"

"What are you giving me? Just give me a change." Li Guizhi went to the kang and stuffed the money into the bottom of the humiliated pile.

"You don't have any money to come back. If you go to anyone's house to ask for money, you won't be ashamed. You have to beg and coax your mother. Is it cheap? Back then, I didn't let them borrow money to play mahjong, but you had to borrow it. This time Well, so much money has been lent out, and I can’t get it back.” Wang Honggang cursed and cursed.

"The whole store like you is yellow early. It's a fucking thing every day, and it makes people look bad. We pay people here, and you offend people over there. If you don't want to pay back, go ask for it? Lie every day Cleaning up the kang is a fucking thing, and it’s not allowed to stop during the Chinese New Year.”

"Then the fuck is riding on the neck, and I have to pretend to be a grandson?"

Li Guizhi scolded a few words, took the account book and walked to He Bin's house on the last trip to the east of the village. She wanted to find a way to breathe, so as not to be angry with the live donkey at home, but when she thought of He Bin's behavior, I feel even more worried.

At this time, from the east courtyard of He Bin's house, a thin, dry, stooped, and only 1.4-meter-tall old lady came from the east.

"Cinnamon twig."

"Auntie, what are you doing here?"

"I'm going to buy a bottle of vinegar from your house. I'm buying a pack of cigarettes. Do you still have two yuan and five na red plums?"

"It's gone. Tobacco is not available now. The cheapest one is only four yuan and five wolves."

The old lady left muttering.

"Auntie, be careful, don't slip and fall."

Li Guizhi looked at the three big tile-roofed houses in the courtyard, and then at the two small earthen houses in the east courtyard. He was full of atmosphere, and felt worthless for the old Aunt He and his wife, who raised four sons and three girls. What's the use, I still live by myself when I grow old. The old son is not allowed to live in the big tile house built by himself, so he can only live in the broken earth house that the third son has vacant.

Alas, this pair of mothers are like this, can I still pay this account?

Thinking of this, Li Guizhi didn't hold any expectations in her heart, but she still had to try. She opened the iron gate and walked into He Bin's courtyard, and entered the house amidst the sound of dogs barking.

"Guizhi is here." 29-year-old He Bin's wife said quietly.

"Auntie, where's my uncle?" Li Guizhi asked.

"After going to the house, I went to drive the cattle, and I will be back in a while."

Jingjing is He Bin's second-married daughter-in-law. She had two children after six years of marriage. Stealing oil and squatting in the bureau, but married a daughter-in-law who is 13 years younger. Is it because of tattoos of a dragon and a big centipede on her body, pretending to be a gangster?
After more than ten minutes, He Bin returned home.

"Uncle, I'll come here to settle the score for you. Alas, the family really can't solve the problem this year. The cooperative didn't give a single cent of the money for the two places, and there's no money for the overstock at the end of this year."

He Bin pinches the cigarette in his mouth with his middle finger and ring finger, "Gui Zhi, what do you mean by that? Am I the one who doesn't pay back my debts? Man, he never misses money and errands."

"Yes, yes, the old uncle is indeed not short of money, nor is there an errand. I know you will go to our house to pay the bill in a few days. Isn't this because you are in a hurry to sell the goods tomorrow, and you are in a hurry to use the money, so you have no choice but to come here, old uncle Don't be surprised."

"How much is the total?"

"This year's account is 860, and the old account was [-]." Li Guizhi pointed to the upper and lower parts of the account book.

"More than 800? Why are there so many? Your old uncle is building roads this year. I buy cigarettes and food for my children. I basically buy them at Lao Jin's house. Why are there so many? You are wrong." Shi Jing Ask loudly.

He Bin also frowned, "Yeah, why are there so many this year?"

Li Guizhi really wanted to slap her twice, suppressing the anger in her heart, and said: "Old man, this summer you said that you have no money for the gift, and you took 400 yuan from my house twice, saying that Zhao Zhanwen would give you the salary at the end of the month and give it to me." , and you and my old aunt paid the mobile phone bill. They called to ask to pay, and said that they would pay later, but you all forgot that the mobile phone bill is only three hundred and three. Look at the account book. There is a note Come on, think about it carefully." Li Guizhi picked up the ledger made out of cigarette paper and dug out the ledgers of the two, and showed them.

He Bin looked at it, scratched his head and said with a smile: "Look, it's such a mess, hehe, I forgot it for a long time, so let me just say, why are there so many bills this year?"

"Oh, Guizhi, my family is also short of money this year. I really don't have any money to pay the previous account this year. I will give you this year's account first. Don't worry, I will settle it for you next year. The old man is not that short of money. errand man."

Li Guizhi stared at He Bin dumbfounded, and then glanced at the two brand new mobile phones on Kang and Shi Jing. His son told her that He Bin and his daughter-in-law had bought Ou Po's mobile phones worth more than a dozen. There are more than 3000 copies.

If you have money to buy a mobile phone but don't have the money to pay back the bills, it's fucking piss.

The New Year's Eve came as promised on this day, and people who didn't post couplets on 29 got busy this morning.

The weather was fine today, not very cold, so Wang Biao took the couplets of glutinous rice paste that his grandma and mother had finished brushing with white flour and sugar, and pasted them on the corresponding positions one by one.

On this day, mother Li Guizhi is the queen and the chief executive, and the whole family has to listen to her regulation and leadership.

Although my mother is only 52 years old, she pays more attention to traditional customs and superstitions than the 91-year-old grandma. Even the scolding Lao Tzu has to hold back.

Mother's emphasis on tradition and superstition is also reflected in other places. 23 cleans the house, 27 has to eat noodles, 28 eats Laba porridge or yellow rice, 29 steamed steamed buns for worshiping ancestors, [-] Spring Festival couplets, and dumplings for New Year's Eve at night Two [-]-cent steel coins must be placed, one symbolizes good fortune and the other symbolizes wealth.

And on the first and fifteenth day of the day, before eating, you have to offer offerings to Baojiaxian and burn incense. Although it seems superstitious, Wang Biao knows that his mother just wants to pray for the safety of the family and a good life as soon as possible.

Posting Spring Festival couplets is not only a form of blessing, but also a kind of parent-child activities for the whole family to participate in. For posting Spring Festival couplets, Wang Biao has a deep memory. It seems that he posted Spring Festival couplets with his mother when he was six or seven years old. The couplet is that he went to his fourth aunt's house with the cut red paper and asked his uncle to write couplets. Although the living conditions were difficult at that time, the New Year was full of flavor, and every family was looking forward to the New Year, especially the children. I am looking forward to the arrival of the New Year, because during the New Year, not only can I eat chicken, duck, pork, and fish for a few days, but I also have new clothes and long johns.

The most important thing is that on the day of Thirty, you can release unlimited slide guns and small whips at will, and you can also receive lucky money by kowtow at night. The lucky money is not much, only ten or twenty yuan, but you can I can control it as I like, instead of being confiscated by my mother with the righteousness of "the son's money will be saved for you to marry a wife".

At that time, there were many children in the village, and there were only thirteen children born in the same age as him. People and girls who were a few years older and younger would gather together every morning and evening around spring, and the boys gathered together. Guys, girls gang, running around all over the village, the owner goes to the west, and it’s even more interesting at night. They all hold candles and lanterns made of big cans and bottles, and they are connected to each other. Some melon seeds, peanuts and candies will be put on the table for everyone to eat, and some people will also prepare frozen pears and persimmons, and they will turn into little bandits and sweep from house to house.

After eating and drinking enough, strolling on the avenue with lanterns, and smashing the couplets pasted by other people’s houses with slide cannons, if you encounter a large group of girls, you will hide and throw slide cannons over to scare the girls. Children are at their happiest when they scream in fright.

I remember that one year, the little friend of the old Han’s family got so excited that he set off a pair of kicks at the group of girls, causing a hole in the padded jacket newly bought by the eldest sister of his second aunt’s family. Yes, this kid was whipped by his father with a duster for several days and couldn't make a stool. Even if the windows and doors were closed in the winter, they could hear the screams like slaughtering pigs outside the courtyard. people laugh.

But now, growing up, although the living conditions have been greatly improved compared to when he was a child, the idea of ​​looking forward to the New Year has faded countless times, especially in recent years, Wang Biao has become more and more afraid of the New Year .

When he thought of visiting relatives during the Chinese New Year, and facing the seven aunts and eight aunts Dudu about him finding a partner to marry a wife, his head buzzed.

This year, the words he will face will be: Biao, big nephew, big nephew, you are already 31, and you don’t even talk about a wife, when will you bring a date back and show us.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help shivering, it was really scary.When he thought of the third and fourth day of junior high school, his cousins, cousins, brought their wives and husbands, and held a child in their arms to pay New Year's greetings, showing affection in front of him from time to time, throwing dog food at him wildly, Wang Biao's heart trembled again .

He is so difficult.

Hey, time, time, you can slow down, this year is too fast, after tonight, he will be 31, and he is a man who is running around, and he still achieves nothing, has nothing, and asks for money Money, if you want a daughter-in-law without a daughter-in-law, will this make people live?

17 seems to be the unlucky year for his family. The corn in more than two places was sold without getting a penny, and only got a few hundred catties of black corn. He failed to write a novel and wrote more than 200 million words. Up to now I only earned more than 9000 yuan, and I got a partner, and it took less than two months.

Why are there so many problems?
After posting couplets with his mother and grandma, Wang Biao took incense and offerings to the home of the old man Wang Guoshan who lived in the east and worshiped the genealogy, kowtowed and offered incense to the ancestors.

After plugging it in, Wang Biao silently prayed devoutly to the ancestors hanging on the wall of the genealogy: "Ancestors have spirits in the sky, please bless future generations to succeed in their careers as soon as possible, and shine on our Wang family lintel."

In the evening, at the Dharma paper, Wang Biaogui kowtowed to the gods of heaven and earth and prayed behind the altar that enshrined the four directions of heaven and earth, praying for heaven and gods and Buddhas to bless him to turn around as soon as possible.

"What are you doing? Hurry up and set off flowers and cannons? We are waiting for you to eat." Li Guizhi stood at the door and shouted, what is this brat doing?

"God must bless my new novel to become popular, and I must bless me to make more money in 2018." Wang Biao hurriedly nibbled three more heads, then got up from the ground and started to set off fireworks and Yangbian Erkick.

This year's income is low, and the family only bought a big flower worth 150 yuan, a small firecracker with [-] rings and a bundle of scud sophomore kicks, which can be regarded as a small contribution to the protection of the environment.

After setting off the firecrackers and fireworks, Wang Biao came to the front room to eat. The New Year’s Eve dinner in the countryside is very simple. He heats up the leftovers from the day, and then cooks a large pot of heart-wrapped leek and pork dumplings to form a perfect table. After the New Year’s Eve dinner, the family will sit on the kang and watch the Spring Festival Gala. While watching TV, they will eat digestive food such as oranges, apples, pears, etc. in the pot and fruit plate.

His family is very lively during Chinese New Year, mainly due to the large number of people. Although the grandparents and the old uncle have been separated for a long time, they still eat together during Chinese New Year every year.
The whole family was lively and happy, but as they melted together, disharmonious voices came out again.

Wang Guoqiang took a sip of wine and said to Wang Biao who was gnawing on a pig's trotter, "Grandson, it's been another year, when will you bring back a date to show me?"

"Yeah, grandson, you see, the children of your two sisters are three or four years old, why don't you know how to be anxious when you are the eldest brother." Grandma Daiying said.

Wang Honggang on the side heard it, curled his mouth, and put his chopsticks on the table, "Just like him, can he find a wife every day when he is bored at home?"

"Why can't I find a daughter-in-law? Didn't they stop letting people eat?" Wang Biao said angrily, what are you doing after the Chinese New Year?

Li Guizhi is so angry, these fathers and fathers are simply enemies, no one looks pleasing to anyone, "Eat, you should do whatever you want when you are full, and you are noisy at night on New Year's Eve, so you can't stop trying to make things go smoothly. "

Wang Guoqiang glared at Wang Honggang and said: "You have such a mouth, you can't say a word. If there is something you can't say well, you have to say it mournfully."

"I won't say it properly, that's all." Wang Honggang said.

At this time, the rare and sensible Wang Hongchao stood up to divert his attention, and licked his head twice at the old lady: "Grandpa, grandma, happy new year."

The old man and the old lady were happy when they saw it, and the old lady stretched out her hand, "Okay, okay, give me the money."

Wang Hongchao smiled, "Here, here, grandma, you just accept the money." He took out a stack of two 3000 yuan red sheets of Grandpa Mao from his pocket, took out two one-hundred-dollar ones, and handed them to the old man. Granny milk.

Wang Guoqiang also took out 200 yuan from his pocket at this time and gave it to the two old treasures.

The two old babies were even more delighted from ear to ear.

On the side, Wang Hong just saw this, and he didn't care about his luck with Wang Biao. He took out 400 yuan from each of them, and each gave [-] yuan, "Grandma, grandma, happy Chinese New Year."

He is a person who wants to meet, 100 yuan is too little.

Li Guizhi glared at Wang Honggang with a beautiful look. How can this tiger beat him?Give them all one hundred, what do you get for two hundred.

Wang Biao saw that it was all over and it was time for his performance. He tore off a piece of paper and wiped his mouth, then knelt down on the brick floor opposite the grandpa and grandma, with three heads, "Great grandpa and grandma!" Happy New Year, good luck, good health, bring the red envelope, if the red envelope doesn’t come, hey, I won’t get up.”

Said, put both hands on the table.

"Here, here, this money belongs to my great-great-grandson." The old man stood up with a smile, and put the 400 yuan he just got into Wang Biao's hands, and the old woman laughed loudly and said: "See how my great-great-grandson can talk." He also gave the money to Wang Biao.

Seeing this, Wang Hongchao was irritated, and protested: "Master, grandma, I kowtow too, why don't you give me money, it's too partial."

"Fuck off, kid, what money will I give you when I become a grandfather?"

Wang Biao happily put away the money, then adjusted his direction, and nodded at Wang Guoqiang and Daiying, "Grandpa, grandma, happy new year and good health."

Wang Guoshan smiled and took out 500 yuan from his pocket and put it in Wang Biao's hand, "Thank you, hahaha, it's still my grandfather who is generous."

Li Guizhi scolded with a smile: "How old is a child, and I still need lucky money, so it's not shameful to lose it."

Wang Biao smirked, he had a hunch that he would be successful in the new year, he ate the two steel coins at the risk of his belly bursting, and now he was pressured by four old people Broken red envelopes, it would be difficult for him to succeed in 18.

He is enjoying this moment very much. Wang Biao agrees with the saying that a family is like a treasure. At this moment, he thinks he is the richest person.

Four generations of grandparents and grandchildren get together to have a New Year’s Eve dinner. Not everyone can experience this kind of happiness. How many people of the same age, not to mention receiving lucky money from grandparents, are their grandparents. Some of them are born I have never seen it.

These are people who love him, and in the new year, he must improve the quality of life of his family.

Wang Biao silently swears in his heart!
　It's on the shelves today. I hope that friends who like it can vote for "Biao Village Chief" with your recommendation votes and click to save it. In this cold thing, the village chief Biao can feel the warmth. Thank you!
