After Shi Zhen came back yesterday, he told Guan Baiyu about what he was going to do next.
Guan Baiyu agrees with Shi Zhen doing this, after all, this job is not tiring.
But he didn't expect... Shi Zhen would start embroidering by himself.
He knew how to needle and sew, and even sewed quilts for Shi Zhen, but when he saw Shi Zhen holding a needle... he was a little stunned.
Shi Zhen had nothing to be embarrassed about, and looked at Guan Baiyu calmly.
What has he done in his last life? It is said that at this time in his last life, he was still moving bricks on the construction site, and was called to and fro.
"Brother, let me embroider with you." Guan Baiyu said.
"No, let's cook." Shi Zhen said.
It's time for dinner.
He told Zhao Qiujuan that he would not go to dinner today, so he planned to eat casually at home with Guan Baiyu.
There were only two of them, so Guan Baiyu didn't cook rice, only fried two eggs, scrambled some vegetables, and ordered two bowls of noodles.
Since they bought the gas stove, they basically use the gas stove for cooking, but unfortunately it is placed with the stall at the Shijia's side... They can only make a fire and cook on the stove.
After cooking, it was too hot in the house.
Fortunately, at this time, Shi Zhen was used to the heat, so he could endure it.
In the morning, Shi Zhen asked Guan Baiyu to clean up the house on Guan Jianguo's side, and he and Shi Xinghuo's belongings were all moved to Guan Baiyu's house.
Guan Baiyu's house is not big, and everything is sitting next to the wall in a disorderly manner, and his and Shi Xinghuo's bed has not yet been made.
Guan Baiyu's dining room was not big, but fortunately, the stalls were all removed. Shi Zhen moved the dining table, and there was a place for him and Shi Xinghuo's bed.
When they went to Guan Jianguo to rent a house, they didn't have anything, so naturally they didn't have a bed to sleep in. Fortunately, Guan Jianguo gave them two door panels.
In winter, because they don't have bedding, they sleep very cold. Now, it's a little hot on the sleeping door...
Shi Zhen laid the two door panels, put on the straw mat, and hung up the small ceiling fan he bought earlier.
Guan Baiyu said, "Brother, do you want to sleep in my room? My room is spacious." He saw that the bed next to Shi Zhen and Shi Xinghuo was not pleasing to the eye.
In his house, it was very crowded because of the firewood, but now there is not much firewood there.
"No need, we can just sleep outside." Shi Zhen said, he likes men, how can he get too close to Guan Baiyu
Guan Baiyu suddenly felt a little lost.
After the two arranged, Shi Xinghuo came back.
He ate in the town, and when he came back, he told Shi Zhen what he had for lunch and what he had for dinner.
Shi Zhen listened very carefully, while listening... Embroidery.
Idle is also idle, embroider more or less.
Guan Baiyu saw this and embroidered together.
Shi Zhen didn't stop Guan Baiyu, but he didn't let Guan Baiyu do it until after eight o'clock, and let Guan Baiyu go to bed earlier.
He also goes to bed early.
At four o'clock tomorrow morning, he will go to town to watch Zhao Qiujuan set up a stall.
Shi Zhen went to bed early, but there were many women in the village who were still "fighting at night".
If it is a person who is used to playing with mobile phones in later generations, it is difficult to calm down and do such manual work, but people in this period are still more patient.
In particular, the people who picked up work from Shi Zhen were all women in their forties.
They all came from hard times, and one is more industrious than the other, and now they have money to do this work... They are called serious.
Zhang Xiumei continued to embroider all the time.
After she brought the clothes home this afternoon, she focused all her attention on the clothes. She didn't even cook dinner, but asked her husband to do it. So far, she has embroidered fifteen pieces by herself, earning ten dollars.
Zhang Xiumei was filled with an indescribable sense of achievement, and she despised her daughter a bit: "Jin Jin, you have only embroidered three pieces... can't you be more serious?"
"Mom, it's so boring!" Guan Jinjin didn't want to do it.
Zhang Xiumei said, "Isn't it boring to make money?"
Guan Jinjin stopped talking, but did not continue to embroider, but began to pull the pattern paper on her mother's embroidered clothes.
Zhang Xiumei has always indulged her daughter and glanced at her, but she didn't say anything.
Around tomorrow afternoon, she will definitely be able to embroider these thirty clothes.
Then she earned in her early twenties these two days.
They don't make any profit from raising chickens at home, and they have to pay a little bit, which is really not as good as embroidery.
There are many women in the village who are busy embroidering like Zhang Xiumei, and some people want to embroider when they see people around them, but they are told that Shi Zhen has no clothes to pick up, and they can't help but feel lost.
Shi Zhen's biological clock now starts at four o'clock.
After he woke up, he glanced at the alarm clock, and quietly went out to the town.
When he got to town, his sister was already making preparations.
Shi Zhen was a little surprised, his sister was very introverted, and he didn't dare to do some things if others didn't say anything. He thought she would wait for him to come before starting to do it.
"I got up early, so I did something first..." Zhao Qiujuan explained embarrassedly.
"Sister, you did a great job." Shi Zhen smiled.
He still didn't do it today, let his sister do it all, and watched by himself.
When he got to town, he didn't go to knead the rice balls, but let his sister do it and let his sister deal with the guests.
His sister didn't dare to shout, but fortunately the stall has been open for a few months. There are regular customers. When the customers come over, they often hand over the money first, and then say what they want.
There are only a few materials left and right, Zhao Qiujuan can understand and do not bad.
But after eight o'clock, there were no more guests, she still couldn't hold back and said to Shi Zhen: "Azhen, I'm really scared, some of the rice balls are too small for me."
"Sister, they can't feel it," Shi Zhen said. "If there are really difficult guests, you just need to make a smile."
People who buy rice balls to eat in the morning are all in a hurry, and they are not too entangled. His sister should handle it.
"Hmm." Zhao Qiujuan said quickly.
Shi Zhen said again: "Sister, if you go alone, I won't be here tomorrow. This stall is for you."
Shi Zhen came to accompany her early in the morning, and Zhao Qiujuan was a little embarrassed, but she felt uneasy when she took Shi Zhen to a stall: "Azhen, it's okay if you don't come... But this stall... Otherwise, the money I sold , give it all to you."
"Sister, what do you do for me with the money you earn?" Shi Zhen said, "Keep this money and save it."
Seeing Zhao Qiujuan, he was still a little uneasy, afraid that she had worked so hard to earn money and then gave it all to others, Shi Zhen said again: "Sister, if you eat at home, you should pay 100 yuan a month for food, that's okay, but Don't spend the rest of the money, and don't give it to others, especially not to Tingting, Tingting can spend too much money, I'm afraid that everyone will spoil her and cultivate her to throw money away."
Throwing money and goods is a dialect on their side, referring to those people who don't work when they grow up, and spend their family money all day long.
"Tingting can't..." Zhao Qiujuan said.
"Anyway, you can't give her money. If I find out, I'll be angry," Shi Zhen said. "If you can't refuse, just give me the money, and don't give it to others anyway."
Zhao Qiujuan nodded quickly.
Shi Zhen said again: "Sister, you have to think about your future and plan for yourself. Let me tell you this, people here want to study, they need a household registration, and it is best to buy a house in the town... This stall can earn about 600 a month, if you save a little, save 500 a month, you will get 6000 a year, save a few years, you can buy a house.”
No matter how terrifying the housing prices in Changxi City are after more than 20 years, the houses are actually not expensive at this time.
But no one is selling it.
But in a few years, the first batch of commercial housing will come out!
If Zhao Qiujuan is not in a hurry to get married and set up a stall well, judging from the current situation... She has set up a stall for a few years, and she can definitely buy a set of commercial housing, at least she can pay a down payment.
Zhao Qiujuan looked at Shi Zhen in shock. She didn't expect that Shi Zhen wanted her to buy a house.
"I'm going to marry and buy a house..."
"The house is yours when you buy it. If you have a house, you can make money, you can live well without getting married, and you can have confidence if you are married."
Zhao Qiujuan was struck by lightning.
No one had told her this before, and she had never thought about it this far.
All she was thinking at the time was to get married closer.
In this way, she can take care of her mother, and when she encounters troubles, she can also find her father and Shi Zhen to help her out.
She was really afraid of meeting someone like her own father.
But now listening to Shi Zhen say this...
If she can have a house, even if she accidentally meets her father in marriage, she can get a divorce and live with the children by herself.
Yes, a house is a house.
Zhao Qiujuan's eyes lit up.
Shi Zhen smiled and watched Zhao Qiujuan making rice balls for people in high spirits.
For their generation, the house is really... very important.
The living conditions in their childhood were very poor.
Let's just say that since his father married his stepmother, he has been living in the house where his family eats and cooks. His narrow wooden bed can be used by anyone during the day.
They all want a house.
With such a carrot hanging in front, his sister should keep the money and not give it to others easily.
In fact, in addition to worrying about his sister giving money to Shi Ting, he was also worried that his sister would give money to Zhao Dongjuan.
In his last life, he made some money, and after he brought his family out, he gave all the money.
Zhao Qiujuan never took the initiative to ask him for money, but he knew that her family needed money to see a doctor, and that her children needed money for school.
Later, when he got money, he bought a house opposite to his parents and Zhao Qiujuan, and let them live there, which is considered to be mutual care.
As for Shi Ting and Zhao Dongjuan... they asked him directly without waiting for him to give it.
Often when Shi Ting asked him for money, Zhao Dongjuan turned around and asked for it.
At that time, he loved face, and it was difficult to refuse, so he would usually give it. As a result, Zhao Dongjuan was a person who could only get in and not get in.
No matter how much money Shi Ting spends, she still thinks of him and will buy things for him and Guan Baiyu, although those things are flashy to him.
Zhao Dongjuan is absolutely invisible except when he takes money.
It's always like he owes her.
At that time, he was still in the old thinking. He felt that as a man, his family was his responsibility. Zhao Dongjuan loved to stab people. Not torn face with anyone.
As a result, Zhao Dongjuan said bad things about him and Guan Baiyu everywhere.
She probably found something and told people that Guan Baiyu was the second chair.
The people here are talking about two chairs, to the effect that they are neither male nor female.
At that time, Guan Baiyu devoted himself to self-examination and obtained a university diploma.
At that time, adult education was still very valuable, so Guan Baiyu wanted to be a teacher and take the exam.
He hadn't read any books, and he didn't know what Guan Baiyu had learned. He didn't even know what weaving was at first. He just felt that he was getting farther and farther from Guan Baiyu.
Guan Baiyu spends all day reading and talking to him less.
But he was not good enough not to let Guan Baiyu go.
He is already very sorry for others, how can people want to be a teacher, but he won't let them
At that time, although he was rich, his family had a lot of expenses. He liked to pretend to be the boss and asked the villagers to always borrow money from him. In addition, in order to fight against that enemy, he took on several projects and bought some land. There is not much liquidity on hand.
But he always felt uneasy, afraid that Guan Baiyu would dislike him, so he took up some odd jobs and thought about buying a house for Guan Baiyu.
He was even busier, and Zhao Dongjuan asked him for something.
At that time, he had never touched a computer, and had no understanding of the homosexual group, but he also knew that things like "Second Chair" were definitely not good words.
What's more, what Zhao Dongjuan said, more than that, she said everything.
He went to Zhao Dongjuan and told Zhao Dongjuan not to talk nonsense, and Zhao Dongjuan's meaning was to let him break the bank and eliminate the disaster.
Zhao Dongjuan asked him for a house, the exact same house he bought for Zhao Qiujuan.
He was particularly annoyed by Zhao Dongjuan, but there were still a lot of things bothering him at that time.
Zhao Qiujuan's two children suffered from the same liver disease as their father. They were weak when they were young. One was accidentally admitted to the hospital. Zhao Qiujuan's husband was in a hurry and went in after him. Zhao Qiujuan was too busy to separate himself.
After the amputation of his stepmother, not only did she gain weight, but her body became a lot worse. For some reason, she broke her hip bone.
There was also a problem with his dad. His dad always liked sweets, but he didn't want to eat them in his early years. After he gave him the money, his dad bought sweets all day long, chicken cakes, sweet-scented osmanthus rice cakes, etc. Don't talk about it, his dad even had something to do. Scooping a spoonful of sugar as a snack, always thirsty and drinking sugar water...
At that time, he didn't even know about diabetes and hypertension, how could he stop his father? When his dad suddenly fainted and was admitted to the hospital, it was so serious that he would have to rely on injections to control his blood sugar in the future.
There is also his sister. His sister is a man who can't say anything. Sometimes he directly threatens his sister with self-injury.
He felt that this person was sick, just his sister, he felt that she really loved her and refused to leave.
At that time, so many things in the whole family weighed on him, and there was the contractor outside who couldn't get along with him to trouble him...
For a while, he felt a little overwhelmed.
His body back then was not as good as it is now.
No matter how he works in this life, his nutrition will keep up with it. In his last life, he had a lot of poor food at the construction site. When he came out to work alone, he had to follow others to do it. Even because he was the only one who could do many technical tasks, he did better than him. others more.
Not to mention that he still smoked and drank after working alone.
He doesn't actually like to drink, but he has to drink when he goes out to socialize. As for smoking... When I feel sleepy, I smoke a few, at least two packs a day.
He always wondered, if one day he was gone, what would these people do
If he falls, who will take care of him? Counting on his sister and sister, or on his parents
In fact, he has always been a very realistic person, and he works hard to achieve whatever he wants. As for love, to be honest, he thought it was meaningless at that time.
In his opinion at the time, getting married was to choose a suitable person to live with, and then manage the family well and raise the children well.
As for love... His stepmother married his father, is it because of love
His mother did not marry his father because of love.
He didn't think Guan Baiyu liked him either.
When he first met Guan Baiyu, Guan Baiyu wanted to go to university.
Guan Baiyu didn't finish high school and didn't have a high school diploma. It was very troublesome to take the test a little bit at a time. At that time, the things in the test were real... Guan Baiyu needed a lot of time to study.
He was with Guan Baiyu because he fell in love with Guan Baiyu and coaxed Guan Baiyu to be with him, and the two were together.
He promised at that time that he would take good care of Guan Baiyu and let Guan Baiyu study. Guan Baiyu agreed and stayed by his side.
If he had no money, if Guan Baiyu had other support, he probably wouldn't be with him.
He was much older and darker then than he is now, and he did a lot of work as a mason, and his hands were out of shape.
Of course, he didn't mind what Guan Baiyu thought at that time.
As long as they are together, he doesn't care that Guan Baiyu is with him, just to have a better life.
Don't they all live like this when they are in the village together
It doesn't matter if Guan Baiyu likes men or not, when he is with him, he treats Guan Baiyu as his wife.
It's just that Guan Baiyu has a great future, and there is no need to be with him anymore.
If Guan Baiyu stays with him again, Zhao Dongjuan may ruin his reputation and become a teacher.
Zhao Dongjuan always felt that Guan Baiyu had gotten a lot of money from him, and it was not pleasing to the eyes of Guan Baiyu.
He thought about whether to separate from Guan Baiyu.
In this way, Guan Baiyu can live his life as a cultural man without having to accompany him.
As a result, Guan Baiyu was gone.
He suddenly lost interest in doing anything, and his family didn't care...
He didn't know what to say either. He didn't care about anything during that time, but everyone lived a good life.
Later... When he finally recovered, the price of the land he bought went crazy for a few years because he was discouraged.
He took the money and invested in some real estate built by friends... and he made all the money.
After he has the capital, he doesn't have to work as hard as he did in his early years, but he can make money faster than he did in his early years, I don't know how much.
It was also after Guan Baiyu's death that he never gave Zhao Dongjuan any more money.
In fact, among the three sisters, Zhao Dongjuan is the most thoughtful.
In the last life of his elder sister, she had only made promises all her life, and his younger sister lived even more, so Zhao Dongjuan was also very successful.
In fact, it can't be said that she has success, she mainly... will never let herself suffer.
If she suffers a little bit of loss, she will be able to make trouble. When she is young, she is still making trouble. When she is older, she has more knowledge, but she is especially able to pinch people when making trouble.
How could such a person have a bad life
She married a demolition household who had no ability, and she held the family in her hands all her life.
It's all like this, Zhao Dongjuan can still cry with Zhao Qiujuan, feeling that he is eccentric as a brother.
He is only a few months older than Zhao Dongjuan.
Shi Zhenzhen felt that no matter where Zhao Dongjuan went, she would not be able to lose herself.
In the current situation, he gave one stall to his parents and one to Zhao Qiujuan, and Zhao Dongjuan would definitely ask them for money in the future.
After he was rich in the last life, Zhao Dongjuan's attitude towards him was actually not that bad. Generally, he knew that his attitude was too bad to earn money. In this life, it was because he had no money now, so he didn't take him seriously.
He is indeed very poor now.
After Shi Zhen finished selling the rice balls, he took Zhao Qiujuan to the vegetable market.
Which one's pickles taste good, which one's mustard is cheap enough, etc., all have to tell Zhao Qiujuan.
After he finished speaking, he and Zhao Qiujuan returned to Shi's house.
As a result, as soon as he arrived at the door of the house, he heard Guan Baiyu's voice saying: "Brother, it is not easy for him to make money. In the past, he couldn't sleep for a few hours a day to set up two stalls. Now that the stall is for you, he will embroider at home, A piece of clothing only earns 70 cents... He came back from Changxi City yesterday and has been embroidering, but only a few pieces."
Shi Zhen: "..." Guan Baiyu doesn't need to tell others about his embroidery at home, right
However, when Shi Zhen approached, it would be difficult to talk about Guan Baiyu.
Because Guan Baiyu was embroidering a piece of clothing, the speed of embroidery was very fast.
When teaching Shi Ting to read, he did not forget to make money by embroidering. Guan Baiyu was really hardworking.
