There's a garbage bin in my head

Chapter 33 Dad’s second spring?

At nine o'clock in the evening, Luo Jiu's family gathered in the new house where the renovation had not yet been completed.

"I wish my brother a happy opening and a prosperous business. Cheers!"

The elder sister Luo Jinyan raised the glass first, and then everyone picked up the wine glass in their hands. Even the two-year-old Xiao Xixi raised the glass in a decent manner and stood on the stool to clink glasses with everyone.

"Thank you baby Xixi!" Luo Jiu picked up the cup, touched Xiao Xixi deliberately, and then watched Xiao Xixi follow everyone's example and drink the drink in the cup.

It was almost nine o'clock when Luo Jiu closed the shop, and her sister Luo Jinyan prepared dinner at home and sent it over.

Luo Jinyan had one class on Wednesday afternoon. After the class was over and her homework was graded, she went to Luo Jiu's store to help out. She was busy until the store closed at night.

"Xiao Jiu, how is the business in the store today? I heard from your sister that the mobile phone is sold too cheaply. It is only sold at half the price of others. This price will not make a loss, right?" After putting down his glass, Dad Luo Bang was a little worried. asked.

Brother-in-law Wu Qingguang was also a little worried and said to Luo Jiu: "Yes, at your price, let alone how much money you make from selling a mobile phone, it's better not to lose money, and you also give me and your sister 8000 for each one." A mobile phone worth [-] yuan. Xiaojiu, how much money do you have left? If you have any difficulties, you have to tell everyone."

Although I made a lot today, with sales revenue of 13 yuan, even if the profit is not 10 yuan, it is definitely not much different, but these are my secrets, and it is absolutely impossible for even my closest family members to tell them. from.

However, Luo Jiu didn't want his family members to worry about him, so he had to explain: "Although these mobile phones in the store are all genuine mobile phones, they are all second-hand, and the price is much cheaper than new phones. Although I didn't make money today No matter how much money you get, you won't lose money.

Today we are just using low prices to attract some customers, and the prices will rise in a few days. By then, we will make more money by selling a mobile phone. "

Hearing that although there was no loss, Luo Bang nodded with satisfaction: "As long as you don't do the business of losing money and making money, it will be a profit if you make more or less. But doing business is the same as doing things. Don't be impatient and take your time. good."

"Dad, how could I do a loss-making business? You look down on me so much. Give me a year and see if I can earn enough to buy the scrap collection station at home!" Seeing that his father had put down his worries, Luo Jiu said jokingly.

Luo Bang put down his wine glass and said solemnly: "Why buy a scrap yard, the junk yard is not yours. As long as you open a store in a down-to-earth manner, and find a girlfriend to marry earlier, it doesn't matter if you earn more or less! "

Luo Bang has been brooding about the last time Aunt Hongmei introduced someone to Luo Jiu, and then was let go by the other party. During this period of time, Luo Bang has always been worried about it. Whenever he got the chance, he would talk about Luo Jiu getting a girlfriend and starting a family, just like Luo Jiu. It’s like I can’t find a wife.

At this time, Luo Jinyan, who was helping Xiao Xixi sort out the fish bones, suddenly said: "Dad, actually you are not very old, you can definitely find another one. Don't worry about what Xiaojiu and I will think about. If you really want to find someone suitable, just find another one!"

"Yes, I think Aunt Hongmei in the village is pretty good. Her family is rich and she is about the same age as you. If you are interested, I will find someone to match you! In fact, it would be a good idea to give us a younger brother and sister. thing." Luo Jiu answered after hearing her elder sister mentioning this matter again.

Speaking of which, it has been almost 23 years since Luo Jiu was born, and Luo Bang has always lived alone with Luo Jiu and Luo Jinyan.And Luo Bang is actually not very old at all, he is only 46 years old this year.

46 years old, this age is not old at all for a man. You must know that in the past two years, there have been several parents in the village who are in their 50s and many of their children are in high school and college. Some older children They all got married and had children.

There is a ready-made example in Xiaoyang Village. Baby Auntie's eldest brother, Li Daoming, is two years older than Luo Bang. Last year, her wife gave birth to a fat boy for her.Li Daoming's eldest daughter has been married for two years. Not long before Li Daoming gave birth to his second child, his daughter just gave birth to a granddaughter.

The result was that the mother and daughter were in confinement together, and the uncle was actually younger than the niece.Things like this are not uncommon in the past two years.

In addition to those who got pregnant naturally, there were also some women in their 50s and [-]s who went to the hospital for artificial insemination just to have another baby.

If Luo Bang really wanted to find another child at his age, there would be no problem in having another child.

Luo Bang got married early at that time. He got married at the age of 19, and then gave birth to Luo Jinyan the next year, and Luo Jiu after a few years, but since then he has started his career as a bachelor.

In the early years, it was not that no one introduced a partner to Luo Bang, and once brought one home to live for a while.It's just that at that time Luo Jiu was not very big and not very sensible, and she was very hostile to the aunt who came in, always looking for opportunities to play tricks on others.

Because of this incident, Luo Jiu was severely beaten by his father, and now Luo Jiu still remembers it clearly, a bamboo stick was about to be pulled off, and Luo Jiu's butt also blossomed. For more than a week, Luo Jiu attended class standing up, and she could only sleep on her stomach at night.

But in the end Luo Jiu succeeded. After the aunt went back to her mother's house once, she never appeared in Luo Jiu's house again.Since then, Luo Bang has not brought anyone to the door, and it has continued until now.

But after Luo Jiu went to high school, he gradually became sensible, and no longer objected to his father finding a stepmother for him, but Luo Bang himself didn't seem to have such thoughts.

However, Luo Jiu remembered that the old lady told him on the phone the year before last that a matchmaker introduced Luo Bang to the proprietress of the red plum wholesale department in the village.

At that time, Luo Jiu thought it would be a success, but when he returned home during the Chinese New Year, he found that there was no movement at all. When it was time to collect the trash, he still went to the Hongmei Wholesale Department to collect the trash, and there was nothing wrong with it.

Hearing that Luo Jinyan suddenly changed the topic to himself, Luo Bang glared at his daughter, and said a little annoyed: "Don't talk nonsense when you go out, it's not good to be heard by others, it's just a few people in the village, when the time comes, gossip How do you tell others to behave."

Then he said to Luo Jiu: "You will be 23 after the Chinese New Year, and you have already reached the legal age for marriage. Hurry up and do the important things in life. You can help me while I am still young. When I am old, even if you want to I can't help you either."
