Rebirth of the Cannon Fodder Girl's Counterattack

Chapter 89 I want to pick up coal

But after walking a few steps, I stood still again. I realized that Aunt Fang knew a lot, so I turned back again.

I asked her where she could find cheap coal: "I managed to earn two bucks here, and in the end I had to buy them all into lumps of coal. This lump of coal is a bit too expensive."

Aunt Fang nodded: "You're right, it's a big expense. I haven't heard of any cheap coal, but Qiaoer, I know you can endure hardships, so I'll tell you, if you want coal , you go to the gangue hill to the east to have a look.”

I was taken aback: "Where is Gangue Dump?"

"You just keep going from here, turn two turns, and pass the railway crossing." Aunt Fang pointed me in the direction with her hand, and she told me that the thermal power plant has entered coal for heating, and the workers will put some stones inside before burning Or the poor quality coals that cannot be burned are thrown out, and they are transported together and thrown to one place.If things go on like this, it has become a big mountain of waste rock, and recently, almost one truckload is poured into it every day.

"Their workers are very busy, how can they sort so carefully? It is inevitable that some bad-looking coal lumps will be thrown out, and some coal noodles will be mixed in. Sometimes there are even some iron pieces and wires that can be picked up. What’s the matter, you can sell it for one piece per catty! So many people go to pick it up, if you can go, you can save the coal money burned this winter by working hard for a few days.”

I hurriedly asked, "Do you want money over there?"

"No money! But it's too hard, and it's so dangerous for people to throw stones directly from the top! People won't be responsible for stones hitting people. I know a sesame seed seller who broke his arm when he went to pick up coal. Yes, it's miserable."

I gritted my teeth and said, "Okay, I'll go pick it up, what should I prepare?"

"Just prepare a few coal bags, an iron hook, a shovel head, and some dry food. But Qiaoer, are you really good? The people over there are very fierce, and some people are still selling coal Money, when we have something good, maybe we will snatch it from you, or we will fight."

"I haven't encountered anything? I'm confident."

Compared with this, I am more excited to save two or three hundred yuan in coal money in one winter.It just so happened that my sister-in-law looked after the stall for me. Wouldn’t it be nice for me to pick up a little more?
Aunt Fang sighed and stroked my hair: "You said you are a girl, why do you always do such hard things?"

"I'm fine!" I said with a smile, "Besides, I have nothing but strength."

Aunt Fang said: "You have to go early. If you go late, people will pick them up. Get there at four or five o'clock, hold a lamp, and maybe you can see iron. Our house does not burn coal, otherwise I'm with you too."

"Why do you have to go to such trouble if you have a fire in your house!" I smiled and held Aunt Fang back: "You have helped me a lot this time!"

"What kind of help is this? I'm worried that I'll hurt you!" She looked at me sadly.

I reassured her, said a few words, and left.When passing by the store, I bought some meat and eggs, and a large bag of milk powder. Now that my sister-in-law is pregnant, I must let her eat nutritiously.

I put my things in the small basket of the car and pushed them forward. I was about to return to the stall when I saw two people walking across the intersection. They were Gao Tiansheng and a tall girl. Gao Tiansheng was wearing Ordinary black padded clothes, the woman was wearing a pink padded jacket and black padded leather shoes, she looked very pretty.

The two people should have come out of a snack bar, and it was too late for me to avoid it, so I pushed my car aside and gave way to them.

Gao Tiansheng greeted me: "Hello, Qiaozhen."

"Hello, I'm leaving." I was about to leave, but Gao Tiansheng pressed my handlebars with his hands: "I have something to tell you. Li Mei, you go back first, I will go in a while Looking for you."

The woman nodded, glanced at me, and then walked away quickly.

I stood with him relatively silent for a while, and I was the one who spoke first.

"I heard that you are going abroad, congratulations."

Gao Tiansheng said: "Actually, I wanted to accompany you to deliver the goods that morning, but I was sick. It's true, I had a bad cold. My family wouldn't let me out, and I couldn't tell you."

"Well, take good care of your body and don't get tired." It doesn't matter what happened now, I looked down at the toe of his shoe, feeling very sad.

Gao Tiansheng sighed: "Qiaozhen, I really think you are a very good girl. Although there is a gap between us, I never thought of breaking up like this. I wanted to go to your stall several times, but And I feel like it’s only going to bother you.”

"That girl just now is the one who wants to go abroad with you? She is really outstanding. The two of you are very suitable." I smiled.

Gao Tiansheng looked at me in surprise, and said, "I really have nothing to do with Li Mei. We just bumped into each other during dinner. Don't get me wrong."

"I have to go back to set up a stall. Go catch up with her, she shouldn't be far away. Oh, yes, I wish you a bright future." After I finished speaking, I got on my bicycle and left quickly.

I was reminiscing about the conversation with him just now, and there was hardly a word that stepped on the other party's point. This is the last time we met, so I smiled wryly.

Went back to the stall and took out all the things.

The sister-in-law was very happy, but also a little bit distressed: "How much does it cost in total? It really costs money every day in the city!"

"It's okay! I made money, and the total of these is less than 100 yuan. The money is for spending." I smiled and compared the cotton-padded jacket in front of her. The color is good and it is very fat. You can also wear it when you have a big belly.

At this time, the sister-in-law suddenly patted her forehead: "By the way, look at my memory! Just now when you were away, a young man brought you these things."

The small bed made of cardboard boxes was covered with a pile of books, all of which were half-old junior high school textbooks and some basic textbooks for agricultural schools. I was stunned for a moment.

"He said his name is Gao Tiansheng, you've always wanted these books, so I found some for you, oh, and a note."

I picked it up and looked at it, and there were his delicate and powerful handwriting on it: I borrowed these for you, and I hope you can realize your dreams.

Tears welled up in my eyes, and he still remembered the dream I once said, and would help me do this before leaving.

My sister-in-law took my hand: "What's wrong with you?"

I shook my head and wiped my tears: "It's nothing, I'm just a little blind."

My sister-in-law helped me put those books in a cardboard box: "That person looks pretty good, and you two look pretty good, too, but it's a pity our family background..."

I hurriedly said: "Don't say that, she has a partner, and she wants to go abroad together."

"Oh, that's it." The sister-in-law stopped talking and sat on the side sewing the curtains. After a long time, she sighed.He is a considerate woman. Seeing that I was unwilling to speak, she naturally wouldn't ask more questions.

I kept wiping my tears behind her back, my heart was in a mess.

"Qiaoer, why don't you eat something, I baked sweet potatoes just now." My sister-in-law gave me a sweet potato.

I took it and just took a few bites.There was another nervous noise outside, my sister-in-law and I hurried out, and saw Ma Bin leading several police officers to the opposite booth to look for someone.

Not long after, Yuan Fang opened the door and let them go: "I have no relationship with him anymore, I don't care whether he lives or dies."

A little police officer said: "Why are you a woman like this? He is your husband!"

"I'm different from those of you who eat imperial food. Do you know how much my stall costs for a day? If I make less money, you will compensate me? Anyway, I just won't go!" She pushed the policeman out and slammed the door behind her. up.

Everyone looked at each other.

I walked over and pulled Ma Bin's sleeve.

When Ma Bin saw it was me, he smiled, and without waiting for me to ask, he said: "The man in this family was drunk, slipped into the pit accidentally, broke his leg and sent him to the orthopedic hospital. It's nothing It’s a big deal, and it’s probably going to be over in a few months, but it seems a bit complicated now, so I have to go first.”

"Oh, then be careful. It's quite cold, don't catch a cold."

"Thank you, Qiaozhen. By the way, my girl is going to her grandmother's house for a few days, so you don't need to cook. Thank you during this time."
