good old days

Professor Yu didn't say much about his family. Jiang Xinyu didn't ask much about his grandson after hearing about it. She tidied up the dormitory and left after saying that she would bring him food from the cafeteria in the afternoon.

Jin Fuhai and his wife were waiting at the gate of the courtyard, riding a tricycle to pull goods.

The tricycle is still for business. My family bought it second-hand just for the convenience of carrying goods back and forth to the store.

Originally, only Jin Fuhai was hired, but he brought his wife with him to work in the store every day. When the store was too busy, Zhang Qiaoqiao would also help. Wang Sumei particularly liked this couple and felt that they were both down-to-earth and willing to work. When preparing the meals to be brought to the store in the morning, I would bring several extra pancakes for Zhang Qiaoqiao to prepare as well.

The two of them were sweating profusely while moving the goods, so Jiang Xinyu made brown sugar water for them.

When Jiang Xinyu turned around and returned to the house, she didn't see Zhang Qiaoqiao, who was hesitant to speak. When Jin Fuhai glanced at her, Zhang Qiaoqiao suppressed her words.

After leaving the courtyard and getting a little further away, Zhang Qiaoqiao said, "Why don't you let me tell you that Li Xiaoli and her partner often appear in the market secretly and look this way. Who knows what their intentions are?"

Jin Fuhai frowned, "The boss brings our meals every day at noon. Even if it's just a few pancakes, we accept the boss's kindness. If you are making trouble here, the boss must think that we want to drive Li Xiaoli away and make you a salesperson. "

"Qiaoqiao, the boss is kind and doesn't give me a dead salary. The better the business, the higher my salary. We can't let the boss think that we are arrogant."

"Li Xiaoli's partner just seems a bit snarky. He picks her up every day. We can't even tell the boss that he has bad intentions. I can't imagine what he can do."

Jin Fuhai couldn't figure out what Li Xiaoli's partner could do, and Zhang Qiaoqiao couldn't figure out what Li Xiaoli's partner could do. It was just that her partner's senses were not good every time he saw Li Xiaoli.

Zhou Qi's work efficiency is very high, and he did reserve the warehouse within a week. Jiang Xinyu asked for 100 square meters, but he rented more than 130 square meters, with a height of more than three meters. Such a large space, dozens of It should be able to store tons of space. The annual rent is 400 yuan, so the price is neither cheap nor expensive.

The location of Huilin Street is good, not far from the market, just over 20 minutes away by bike. Jiang Xinyu plans to send all the goods in the yard to the warehouse someday. After all, her home is where she lives, and it is inconvenient to pile up goods all day long. .

After saying that she wanted to send ginseng to Chen Jinhua, Jiang Xinyu was not sure where Chen Jinhua lived now, so she called his workplace first.

The person who answered the phone was not him. After a while, Chen Jinhua took the phone and said that there was no need for her to come over with the child. His work was not close and it took more than an hour to drive. On a cold day, the child could catch a cold. He will go there in the morning tomorrow so as not to delay the business in their store.

"How is your health lately?"

You've all gone back to work, so your health should be fine for the time being, right?

"It's out of the way."

Although Chen Jiajia was very angry, after getting over the anger at that time, his mood has returned to calm these days.

Chen Jinhua came early the next day and brought several bags of coal.

Jiang Xinyu and Wang Sumei were looking back from the back window of the main hall, because there was a quarrel going on in the courtyard behind, and the sound was quite loud.

The early morning quarrel echoed throughout the neighborhood.

Jiang Xinyu watched helplessly as Professor Yu was pushed out of the courtyard.

Wang Sumei muttered: "I heard that the person living in what you just said was your teacher Yu's son. Did your teacher Yu kill his grandson?"

She thought for a moment and said, "Now that I have said that, I really remembered. I remember that when Teacher Yu first came to us, you did have a boy with you, and he froze to death in the winter. This is not a strange thing, in winter Sick children are easy to die from illness, and adults also have fevers. The child from this family came to our house to borrow vinegar the day before yesterday, and his parents even gave him two dried fish as a gift. He didn't look like he was so harsh on his biological father. people."

Jiang Xinyu was startled when she heard this.

My mother-in-law said this as if it was common in the past for someone to die from a fever or illness. But in the future, a fever and a cold would definitely be considered a minor illness.

Wang Sumei shook her head, "It's true that every family has its own sutras that are difficult to recite." She knew the old man Yu, and after coming to the capital, her daughter-in-law often said that Teacher Yu took good care of her, and she even sent him prayers during the Chinese New Year. Wang Sumei felt that the old man Yu just looked scary with his face hanging every day, but he was actually a pretty good person.

But I heard some random stuff this morning, and I still have other ideas in my mind.

Jiang Xinyu saw Yu Xiling walking unsteadily towards the school, but still didn't leave the door after all. She thought that Teacher Yu definitely didn't want others to see this side of him now.

A car horn sounded outside the courtyard. When I opened the curtain, I saw that it was Chen Jinhua's car parked outside.

Chen Jinhua's face turned a little sallow, and Wang Sumei poured him a cup of hot tea.

Song Yahui and the guards moved coal into the courtyard together.

Sumei, the king of coal, had no choice but to get rid of it. She couldn't get it privately. She still spent a lot of money to replace the coal at home, which was only enough to last half a month and couldn't be burned all day long. She was worried about where to get coal in the future.

"You haven't eaten yet?"

Chen Jinhua ate it, but still shook his head.

Jiang Xinyu scooped out Song Yahui's food and asked him to take it back to the house to eat.

Big steamed buns with corn flour and sorghum flour mixed with white flour, sweet potato porridge with stir-fried mung bean sprouts, green onions, eggs and braised roe deer meat.

Wang Sumei had never cooked roe deer meat before, so she thought about braised roe deer meat.

No matter what kind of meat it is, can it be braised?

Yesterday, she knew that Chen Jinhua was coming. She cooked the roe deer meat early in the morning. She had to cook in a hurry when people from the province came.

When Chen Jinhua took a bite, he could tell it was roe deer meat. Wang Sumei was surprised.

"In previous years, Shu Hua would send some home every year, and Peng Sheng worked in the Northeast."

The meal was finished without incident. When Jiang Xinyu was about to take out the ginseng, Chen Jinhua took out something first and placed it on the table. The "household registration book" with red background and gold letters caught the eyes of mother-in-law and daughter-in-law.

Wang Sumei was the first to pick it up and open it. When she saw the content inside, her first reaction was that several acres of farmland in the village were gone.

"You just moved our household registration here without saying a word, and the land was just allocated this fall!" She was so angry.

Jiang Xinyu took the household registration book, and on one page, Jiang Yan's name was written "Chen Jiangyan".

I'm afraid the purpose of this household register is her son's surname.

It is not so easy to have a city registered permanent residence in this era, but if Jiang Xinyu and Chen Yi are assigned jobs in the capital after graduation, they will have registered permanent residence here in the future. It is not difficult for them.

Chen Jinhua's act of killing first and telling later didn't catch her off guard, but the way he did things really made her unhappy.

Thinking of the acres of land at home, Wang Sumei wanted to drive Chen Jinhua out.

In the past, I had taken root in the Wuliqiao brigade, and finally divided the fields into households. But now she has nothing to do with her, and I feel so empty and uncomfortable.

Fortunately, she cooked roe deer meat for him. If he showed his household registration book before eating, she would definitely kick him out immediately.
