1979 The Life of Idle Fish

Chapter 449 “Fat” is Xiao October’s taboo
The most beautiful scenery of this era is the closeness between people, but the most unfortunate thing of this era is the widespread poverty.

Ten years after his rebirth, Luo Tao's heart gradually became warmer.

From the meticulous care of the parents, to the concern of the daughter-in-law, to the reliance of the children.

Tangcheng earthquake, Ankang flood,... Sister He's unfortunate fate, and now the dilapidated classroom.

From home to country, and from country to individual, Luo Tao has learned a lot and realized a lot in these ten years.

Now the fate of him and those around him has changed.

Small trends can be changed, but major events are irreversible.

Looking at the green crop fields outside the school gate, Luo Tao felt that he should change the fate of more people, especially the poor.

This trip to school did not make Luo Tao feel the slightest joy. Instead, it made him feel that he had greater responsibilities on his shoulders.

Under the watchful eyes of several people, Luo Tao returned to Minyi's home without making any promises.

Shen Laosi originally thought that Luo Tao would show his kindness and donate another sum of money, but unfortunately this dream came to nothing.

He waved his hand and told the school teachers to do whatever they needed to do.

His small eyes were looking at the backs of the people who had not gone far, his brows were tightly squeezed together, and there was a hint of displeasure on his face.

But facing Luo Tao, who has strong financial resources, he can only complain in his heart that rich people are stingy.

After thinking for a few seconds, "Cough."

He just stepped on his short legs and kicked his trouser legs, "Comrade Luo Tao, wait for me."

At noon, everyone exchanged cups and had a sumptuous lunch together, which also fulfilled Shen Laosi's wish for the past two days.

This guy can't drink but he still likes to drink.

I only drank half a kilo of Xichang Xiaojiu, and my words were like fried sweet beans, popping out bit by bit.

Shen Laosi drank seven or eight taels, and became even more confused. Even peanuts could be fed into his nostrils. He could only drink as much as the head of a village.

If you still want a higher position, the lowest one is one pound, and two pounds is the top.

Luo Tao couldn't get rid of the promise he had just made at the wine table that the whole village would see him off in the afternoon.

Drunk Shen Laosi, his eyes were blurred and he didn't like to talk anymore. He puffed out his mouth and vented his anger.

In view of his condition, we can only send him home and let his wife take care of him.

The two brothers Minren, one on each side, held him.

"Don't help me, drink, go on..." A drunk person speaks like a deaf person, fearing that others will not hear, so he yells with anger in his Dantian.

I didn't expect that he, who was once a powerful branch secretary, would have such a lovely side today.

Everyone who was not drunk was smiling, but no one was embarrassed to laugh out loud.

However, the rules of the adult world are just a fiction to children and cannot have much binding force on them at all.

"Hahaha."

Little October is the boldest of them all and the least bound by the authority of the village.

He now looks at Shen Laosi's drunken fooling around as an outsider, or rather as a melon-eater.

"Mom, he is such an adult and still has saliva."

Little October stood behind Zhu Lin and pulled a corner of her clothes with a look of disgust on her face.

It's okay if Little October doesn't say anything. After he said that, Zhu Lin felt disgusted when he looked at it again. He twisted his face and pulled Little October out of the house.

Shen Laosi is drooling. This may be related to his previous smoking of cigarettes.

Luo Tao felt deeply regretful when he saw this, and complained a little that Zhu Lin didn't bring a camera this time, otherwise he would have taken some photo albums for Shen Laosi.

Looking at the intoxicated Shen Laosi, he didn't know how he was so lucky to escape.

Wait for the drunkard Shen Laosi to leave.

Wang's sister-in-law was busy setting up the wine table, and Xu Le and the other three also went to check the car in preparation for their return.

Luo Tao and Zhu Lin took Xiao Shiyue to talk with Aunt Ershun in the back room.

Aunt Ershun was sitting on the edge of the bed, hugging little October, talking to Zhu Lin, while Luo Tao was sitting on a small stool not far away, listening to their conversation.

"Daughter, to be honest, you are a good person. Taozi is really lucky to marry you... and to have such a wonderful child." She touched little October's face lovingly with her hand.

"Grandma, I still have a younger sister. My younger sister is so fun. She likes to climb on the kang and chases me every day. ..."

Little October has experienced what happened to Shen Laosi just now. Now he is lively again and chats endlessly with Aunt Ershun.

It could also be that he was excited to know that he was about to go home.

He didn't leave any room for his mother, Zhu Lin, to speak.

"Oh, really? Then come back and bring your sister with you, so that grandma can meet her too."

"Yes." As soon as he agreed, his little face looked a little embarrassed, "But, my grandma won't let her go out to play."

"Why?"

Xiao October is very happy to answer questions asked by others, "Because every time I want to take my sister out to play, my grandma won't let me..."

This little guy talks about everything, and Aunt Ershun also likes to chat with him.

Luo Tao was originally the only listener, but now another one was added temporarily.

Their conversation reached the point where Aunt Ershun couldn't resist, and Zhu Lin stopped her.

"You have a lot to do every day. You go to dad's first and I'll talk to grandma about something."

Zhu Lin drove away Little October, who was about to become a talkative one, "Aunt, I've been troubling you for the past two days. ... It's our family's wish that you take this little money. I originally wanted to buy you something else. I don’t know what to buy either,…”

The amount of money Zhu Lin took out amounted to several hundred at least.

Aunt Ershun immediately panicked and stared, "What are you doing, kid? You bought so many things when you came here... put them away quickly. Although Auntie is not rich, she can't take your money."

I can eat what you bring, but I can’t ask for the money. "

Zhu Lin pushed several times and lost several big unity cards. Aunt Ershun refused to give up. She was keeping her duty.

"Auntie, just take it. During the years when I came to our village, I was so grateful to have Uncle Ershun and your family help me.

Now that Uncle Ershun is gone, I have no chance to thank him for his kindness to me.

... This money is not much, and the children of Minyi and Minren's family are getting older. There are many places that need money, so you should take it first for emergencies. "

Luo Tao took the money from Zhu Lin's hand and stuffed it into Aunt Ershun's hand while talking.

She still pushed the money out, her eyes a little red, "Taozi, Auntie knows you are a good boy, but no matter what you say today, Auntie can't ask for this money.

Let’s not talk about the old almanac in the past. Who can go out without encountering some difficulties... Today you help me, tomorrow I will help you.

Now that you are successful, you can still think about your aunt, who is happier than anything else.I heard from Minyi and the others that after this summer season, they will go to the city to rely on you.

This makes my aunt happy more than anything else.

I don't know what kind of business you are doing outside, but I know that the money is not from the wind, but from your hard work, child. "

Aunt Ershun was very excited when she said this, and Luo Tao almost burst into tears.Zhu Lin had turned around and was secretly wiping tears.

"Auntie, I'm not as good as you said, and making money is not as hard as you said. Say..."

Aunt Ershun was amused when she heard Luo Tao Yun calmly say that making money is like drinking water. She knew in her heart that Luo Tao was teasing Menzi. "Stop talking and collect the money quickly, otherwise we two will never have sex in the future."

She spoke decisively, leaving no room for negotiation.

Seeing this, Luo Tao sighed, "Hey!" He had to put it away and make another picture.

Aunt Ershun was satisfied when she saw that Luo Tao had taken back the money, "That's right, yo, this little guy is really rare."

While the adults were talking, Little October stood aside, watched and listened, and did not join in or disturb the conversation.

After the adults had finished chatting, he ran over to pick up the money on the ground.

Little October has a somewhat chubby body, and the way he bends down to pick up money makes people uncomfortable watching from the sidelines.

This is a bit difficult for him.

but……

Luo Tao had no intention of helping him. He had long hoped that he would lose weight instead of getting fat.

Unfortunately, food is the most tempting thing.

However, as a mother, Zhu Lin couldn't see her son like this, so he pulled up Little October first.

"Look at the fat in your body. You can't even bend down. You have to lose weight after you get home."

When the word "fat" was mentioned, Little October was immediately unhappy. This was the word he was most happy to hear.

"Humph, I'll ignore you." He pouted and handed the money he picked up to Luo Tao, then went out.

"Hey, this kid..." Zhu Linlai turned around and left without hurrying to digest Xiao October's words.

She looked at Luo Tao and pointed at the leaving figure of Little October.

"I'm not talking about you. The little guy doesn't like to hear people say he's fat. What's wrong with you today? You forgot about it.

Hurry up and follow him to see what he is doing? "

Luo Tao took another opportunity to scold Zhu Lin. Now in front of Aunt Ershun, Zhu Lin had no way to tell Luo Tao, so he had to endure it.

He shoved the big unity card he had just picked up into Luo Tao's hands.

Zhu Lin's action of stuffing money was very similar to that of Little October. Luo Tao looked at her back and muttered, "Well, these two girls have the same temperament."

Aunt Ershun showed a happy smile and patted Luo Tao, "You are so lucky to have such a good wife."

"Auntie, you don't know that she is a good person, but she often has a little temper in life. ..."

When it came to his daughter-in-law Zhu Lin, Luo Tao really had a lot to say, so he had a good chat with Aunt Ershun about the interesting things he had known Zhu Lin over the years.

Especially when Zhu Lin fell in love with him, she did not look down on him as a working class person at all.

"Listening to what you said, she is really amazing. You are so kind to her." Aunt Ershun was more concerned about his marriage to Zhu Lin than Luo Tao's mother, Su Guilan.

This may be because onlookers know that Su Guilan's views on Zhu Lin's marriage to the Luo family have always been equal, because Su Guilan never thought that Zhu Lin's marriage to the Luo family would wrong her.

If you think about it, you can understand her. Luo Tao suddenly became a writer in 79, but his identity was different. He became an educated worker.

Moreover, the Luo family has never been a poor family, and they also had great success back then.

In the 70s, there were single-family courtyard houses, which were considered homeowners. They had cars at home and a lot of savings.

This is truly a "rich family".

If you add in the fact that you are an only child, your parents are still in good health, and you still work to earn money, with these conditions, you will be a hot commodity in the 21st century.

The eldest girl and the young daughter-in-law are queuing up to marry Luo Tao.

This also caused Su Guilan to not cherish Zhu Lin that much, just like the daughter-in-law of an ordinary family.

But Su Guilan never got into an angry quarrel with Zhu Lin. If she didn't like it, she would just chat with Luo Tao for a few words.

Besides, she's not the kind of person who loves to make trouble and is petty.

She also loved Zhu Lin very much. If anyone in the alley said something bad about Zhu Lin, she would definitely shamelessly carry a stool to scold him in the street.

I couldn't hold back the topic as soon as it started, "Auntie, let me tell you, we had a quarrel once in so many years of marriage, but we made up within an hour."

Aunt Ershun was happy that Luo Tao had such a good marriage, and taught by words and deeds: "When a couple lives together, there will be no quarreling. As the old saying goes, they fight at the end of the bed and get together at the end of the bed.

It's noisy, noisy, noisy, but one thing is that you can't hit someone. It doesn't matter if you hit someone, whether it's justified or not, it's wrong. "

"Don't worry about this, if I dare to hit her, my father and my mother will be able to skin me."

"Hahaha! That's good.

...Taozi, when Minyi and the others enter the city, you can't help them too much. Auntie hopes that the two brothers can make a living on their own, not just on you. Can you understand what Auntie means? "

Aunt Ershun chatted with Luo Tao about Minyi and the others. Luo Tao listened with sincere admiration for the woman in front of him who had never read a book.

She was really thinking about the long term.

Luo Tao gave her a thumbs up. She didn't say anything, just smiled, so kindly, "I know how to do this. Just put your heart in your stomach and be down-to-earth."

"Hey!"

The two of them had talked about everything, and Minyi and the others just came back at this time.

The countdown to Luo Tao's return journey is about to begin.

Zhu Lin didn't know how to persuade the angry little fat man.

"Have you packed your things?"

"Okay, you can leave back to the city at any time."

They also drank a little at noon today. Although people nowadays do not pay attention to the traffic law of "don't drink while driving, and don't drive after drinking", Luo Tao, as a reborn person, does not dare to treat this matter carelessly.

In today's wine party, Luo Tao didn't let them drink liquor. The three of them drank a bottle of beer together.

Most of the time it was Luo Tao and Min Ren who were drinking. Min Yi liked to smoke, but drinking was not that addictive.

"No hurry, you three will rest for a while."

"Brother, it's okay, we..."

Listening to this kid, he thinks drinking and driving is child's play.

"Stop."

"I tell you three, from now on, if you are caught driving and drinking, you will be fined ten days' wages."

When it comes to fines, except for Xu Le, who doesn't care, the other two dare not be careless. They are busy and promise to "driving without drinking, and drinking without driving."

Luo Tao was still relieved about the two of them and said to Xu Le alone, "If you dare to drink and drive in the future, you should stop driving."

Xu Le: ...
