70s Xiao Que Xing

Chapter 555

"Mother, I heard that Xiao Nian's in-laws will hold a banquet for Xiao Nian tomorrow to celebrate her admission to university. Is it true?" On the morning of the 19th day of the first lunar month, Li Zhi sneaked over to ask Wu Lihua while her father was not at home. .

"Yes, it will be done tomorrow morning. Yesterday his elder brother came to the house to inform." Wu Lihua nodded and said.

"Then is dad coming over tomorrow?" Li Zhi continued to ask.

"He likes that damn girl Xie Xiaonian so much now, he will definitely pass, and he even said that he will get a gift money of 10 yuan. He is really beyond his control, and he doesn't care about the conditions of the family. He just slaps his face and looks fat. After spending all the money, what will the family eat in the future?" Wu Lihua complained.

Now Dabao seldom sends money home, and the family is not as well-off as before.

"10 yuan? That's quite a lot, mother, you'll go there tomorrow, so you have to eat the gift money back." Li Zhi suggested.

"I want to go too, but your father won't let me go, so I can't help it, and with so much money, I won't be able to eat it back if I die." Wu Lihua gritted her teeth.

"My father must be afraid that what you will say at that time will spoil Xiaonian's good deeds, so he won't let you go, but even if we can't get it back, we can't suffer, isn't Zhang Hao also passed the exam? Did you go to university? Why don't we hold a banquet and inform their family to return the gift money my father took over." Li Zhi said with an idea.

"You are a married girl, not a son of the family. Even if you hold a banquet, their family will not come, and do you have the money to hold a banquet?" Wu Lihua asked back.

"We just need to inform his family, and they will definitely come, but my family really has no money, why don't you help me with the banquet, college students are so rare, and the people who come to our house to curry favor with us will definitely not Less, there will be no fewer gift-givers, and I will return the money to you after receiving the gifts, do you agree?" Li Zhi asked Wu Lihua expectantly.

"Your father holds all the money in the family. I don't have the money to hold banquets for you, and even if I hold banquets for you, the capital may not be recovered. The people in the brigade are not rich. Those who have money must be in the minority, and when the time comes, families will only bring two handfuls of vegetables or a few eggs, and the food they bring is not enough for themselves, so you are more likely to lose money!" Wu Lihua analyzed Said.

At this time, no matter who has something to do, when they go, they usually take some egg brown sugar or the like, and very few give money.

"I'll just use their stuff to cook for those who take things, and I'll put away those who take money. When the time comes, I'll make the noodles a little worse. I'm sure there will be a surplus. Mother, don't you think so?" Li Zhi disagreed. said giving up.

"What's the balance? Damang's family just held a banquet two days ago. Go and find out how much money his family has lost. People in the brigade have no oil in their stomachs. They will definitely open their bellies to eat by then. No matter how bad your banquet is, you will definitely lose money, and if it is too bad, the villagers will definitely gossip." Wu Lihua said with certainty.

Because Xie Damang received the notice, his father held a banquet for him a few days ago. There were many people who came, and his family spent a lot of money.

"Okay, I still want to take advantage of the banquet to make a fortune, so that I can save it for Zhang Hao to go to school. It seems that this is going to be a waste, but the family has no money, so what can Zhang Hao do when he goes to school?" Li Zhi said unhappily.

"I advise you to give up this idea as soon as possible. It is simply impossible to collect gifts for Zhang Hao's tuition by holding banquets. If you really have no money, you can go to the team and ask if you can borrow it." Point it out, and there are only a few in our brigade who have been admitted to college, so the team must show something!" Wu Lihua guessed.

"Will the team be willing to take the money out for nothing? Even if the cadres agree, the villagers will definitely not agree." Li Zhi said suspiciously.

"Zhang Hao was admitted to the university and won such a great honor for our brigade. The members should be willing to let the brigade bleed a little. After all, if the money is not spent on this, it will definitely be spent by the cadres elsewhere. And they can’t share it. Why don’t you go to the team and ask, even if you don’t get the money in the end, then there is no loss, right, this will just let the team know that your family is short of money, so that you can borrow money from the team It is." Wu Lihua came up with an idea.

"That's fine, mother, you help me look after the child, I'll go to the team and ask." After hearing what her mother said, Li Zhi immediately put down the child and ran to the captain's house.

Her mother was right, even if she couldn't get the money in the end, it was just a waste of time, if she could get the money, it would be a big profit.

"Captain, my husband has been admitted to the university. Did he bring honor to our team? I heard that our entire commune didn't get admitted to many college students." Li Zhi said as soon as he arrived at the team leader's house.

"It's an honor to the brigade, but what's the matter with you here?" the brigade leader asked suspiciously.

"Captain, you also know that my family's situation has not been very good. If it weren't for the help from my mother's family, my children and I would have starved to death long ago. Although Zhang Hao was admitted to university, the family did not even let him go to school." I couldn’t even pay for the travel expenses, so I thought, since Zhang Hao won honor for the brigade, should the brigade give him some rewards so that he can report to the school with money. Don’t worry, captain, when he graduates in the future , with the ability, I will definitely repay the brigade, and I will never forget your kindness." Li Zhi said weeping poorly.

"Our brigade passed 5 exams at once. It would be unreasonable if we only gave them to you and not others, but if we gave them all, how could the brigade have so much money!" the team leader refused.

"Wei Fang and Li Zhenzhu have left our brigade a long time ago. Even if the money is paid, it will definitely not be paid to the three of them. The only ones left are Zhang Hao and Xie Damang. Xie Damang's family has good conditions, so they definitely don't need to be in the team." It’s from the money, don’t you think so?” Li Zhi said analytically.

"Let's not talk about the three who left. Let's talk about Zhang Hao and Xie Damang. This money is a reward, not a relief. No matter what the conditions of Damang's family are, they will be paid."

The relationship between the captain and Xie Damang's father has always been very good, and there are still some small relatives around. If there is something profitable, he would be willing to ignore Xie Damang's family.

Several cadres in their brigade had discussed before that they would send towels or porcelain vats to each of the people in the team who were admitted to college, but now that Li Zhi came over, he needed to discuss it with other cadres , It depends on whether to give things, or to give them the money for buying things directly.

"Our brigade is so big, and we collect so much food every year, even if both families distribute it, we can still get it. It's just a good time to encourage the children in the brigade to study hard." Li Zhi looked at the head of the brigade. Feeling loose, he hastily continued.

"If the brigade doesn't give rewards, then I can only borrow money from the brigade. To go to college, I have to spend money on food and expenses. My second child is still young, and I can't work hard. The brigade is the least You have to lend me 100 yuan, otherwise, our family will not be able to survive, and then I will have to squat in front of your house every day and eat at your house." Li Zhi rogue continued.

"What's the use of you squatting at my house? I'm not in charge of this brigade. You go back first. I'll discuss this matter with other cadres in the brigade before making a decision. I'll notify you then. "Encountering such a rascal, the captain also had a headache, so he could only drag on.

"Okay, then I'll wait for the captain's good news." Li Zhi immediately said happily after hearing what the captain said.

In order to force the captain to commit the crime, after Li Zhi came out of the captain's house, every time he met villagers, he would tell them that the brigade decided to reward those in the village who went to college.

He also exaggerates that the captain and the cadres in the brigade are good people, and they are considerate of the members. In the future, if the family has difficulties, they can go to them to borrow money. They are all good cadres of the people, etc.

Whoever has no difficulties, even though they were a little unhappy when they first heard that the brigade would give money to those who are admitted to college, but when they heard that they could ask the brigade to borrow money if they had difficulties, they were more happy than opposed. Anyway, the money in the brigade will not be given to them, and getting such a promise is better than anything else.

In the end, the cadres in the brigade were stuck, so they could only apply to the commune. After the approval, Zhang Hao and Xie Damang were each given 20 yuan as a bonus. Of course, these are for later.

Xie Xiaonian didn't know what happened in her hometown. After she sent the three of them to the kindergarten, she was busy preparing the things needed for the start of school, waiting for the start of school.

"Xiao Nian, you're going to start school tomorrow, are you ready? Is there anything missing?" Luo Changsong asked Xie Xiaonian on the first night of school.

"It's all ready, there's nothing missing, and I don't live on campus, so I just need to prepare some things for class."

"That's good. Are you sure you won't let me deliver it tomorrow?" Luo Changsong confirmed again.

"No need to send it, I can do it by myself."

"Alright then, I have prepared school-opening gifts for you and Zhongjun, and I'll go back to the house to get them for you." Luo Changsong continued with a smile.

"What gift? I don't know when you prepared it." Xie Xiaonian said in surprise.

"Of course it's a good thing. Here, take it apart and have a look." Luo Changsong took the things out of the room, handed them to Xie Xiaonian, and said mysteriously.

"Mom, open it quickly. I also want to see what kind of gift it is." Tang Yuan immediately said excitedly when he heard that it was a gift.

"Okay, Mom will take it apart."

"What is this? Is it made of iron?" Jianbing asked suspiciously when Xie Xiaonian opened the small cloth bag, revealing two chubby iron guys.
