Back to the Northeast 1970

How did Chen Hongbing know that it was Wan Sixing who broke his leg? This incident obviously became a mystery. Yan Baoshu and Wan Sixing thought about many possibilities, but they couldn't come to any conclusion in the end. Gradually, this matter things are forgotten.When you are busy, time always passes quickly, and Yan Baoshu’s small business is also booming. Since the reform and opening up, various policies have been issued, and the number of people doing business has gradually increased, but those who can succeed Very few, because there are more and more scammers in this period, and many of them are ideologically enlightened, but they may not really have a business mind. To put it bluntly, they are not the material for doing business.Yan Baoshu wasn't good at doing business at first, but he has lived his whole life after all. He may not be able to handle projects of tens of millions or even hundreds of millions, but as far as small businesses are concerned, it is more than enough.

Now the courtyard of Grandma Sining's house seems to have become a small entertainment city. With Yelena's help, three billiard cases filled half of the courtyard, and the rest of the place has become a dancing venue.Later, when the number of people gradually increased, Yan Baoshu changed his strategy. During the daytime, from [-]:[-] am to [-]:[-] pm, it was billiard time, and from [-]:[-] pm to [-]:[-] pm, it was used for dancing.Yan Baoshu would come here every night after dinner, because many young people want to learn ballroom dancing.

Ballroom dancing is now well known and accepted by most people, so they are willing to follow the trend and jump on it.Professor Yan Baoshu's ballroom dance tuition is five yuan, and he can learn with a dozen people every night, that is, he can earn more than 50 yuan for one class, which is not counted as the entrance fee.

The yard is overcrowded every day. Yan Baoshu knows that this is not a long-term solution, not to mention that in winter, people can't jump around in the yard against the cold wind, right?Taking advantage of the warm weather, the idea of ​​changing to a bigger venue has gradually been put on the agenda.Soon, the best opportunity came. In mid-August, when the city was at its hottest, Yan Baoshu was sitting in the billiards hall one day drawing clothing design drawings, and it was precisely because of the polka dots in Shanghai. The clothes became popular, and Yan Baoshu also started to make preparations.Just as Yan Bao was fascinated by calligraphy and painting, a pair of white and tender hands covered his eyes, "Guess who I am."

Yelena's Chinese is very average, with an accent that is easy to distinguish like many foreigners, Yan Baoshu easily guessed her, "Yelena, why are you here?"

Yelena let go of her hand and came to sit down in front of Yan Baoshu with a smile. Her dress was still so fashionable. Yelena is a true Muscovite. She once said that she likes China, especially Harbin in the northeast. I settled there, but I don't know why I came here halfway.Yelena is tall and slender, which is an innate condition for big Russian girls. She has a straight nose and bright eyes when she smiles.When Yelena sat down, she saw Sanshan tobacco on the table. This was Yan Baoshu's favorite brand recently, and it cost one yuan and fifty cents a box.Yelena took the cigarette and lit one by herself, and said with a smile, "I'm here to say goodbye to you."

Yan Baoshu was taken aback, and quickly put down his pen, "Where are you going?"

"I'm going back to my hometown." Yelena smiled sourly, with tears in her eyes. She held the cigarette between her fingertips and offered to give Yan Baoshu a warm hug. She gently patted Yan Baoshu's back, "I'm in China I have no friends, you and Ning are my most cherished, I am very reluctant."

Yan Baoshu comforted: "Why do you want to leave suddenly, is there something at home?"

"No, I'm going back to get married, to a man I don't like."

Yan Baoshu was startled, "Since you don't like it, why do you still agree?"

After finishing speaking, Yelena let go of Yan Baoshu, sat back in her seat and smoked a cigarette and said, "I have never had a chance to tell you that that restaurant is actually owned by my father, and we have been here for many years, it is time to go back. Yelena's voice choked up, "Shu, if possible, I really want to stay in China and marry you, but I know it's impossible, we don't have a chance, right?"

Yan Baoshu's heart was filled with Lu Xiangbei, but he ignored the people around him. For example, Wan Sining, he didn't know that he was interested in him until a long time later, but now Yelena also... Yan Baoshu sighed and smiled She smiled and said: "Yelena, you are a good girl. I was a poor boy back then, but you were willing to be my friend. I am really touched by this. After that, you helped me so much. This is the most important thing in my life. I will never forget it, and I will keep it in my heart, as you said, it is impossible for us, after all, I already have someone I like." Yan Baoshu is not a warm man, he can't do central air conditioning, and it is even more impossible because Yelena is a The girl is soft-hearted and gives her more fantasies. A good girl like Yelena deserves a better man to protect her, love her, protect her, and own her.

Yan Baoshu refused very simply, Yelena accepted it quickly although she was a little sad, with a happy smile on her brows and eyes, "Book, can you tell me who is the person you like?"

Yan Baoshu doesn't mind talking about his sexual orientation with a foreigner, he said frankly: "Yelena, the person I love and I are not allowed by this society, but I still want to be with him, I like it It's a man."

Yelena was stunned, and took a long time to move, "I see, I didn't know that I lost to a man." Yelena's tone seemed to be joking, and with a slight movement of her fingertips, half of the soot was flicked off. At the same time, she smiled knowingly, "Don't worry, I will keep the secret for you."

"Thank you." Yan Baoshu likes girls like Yelena.

"Let's not talk about that, let's talk about serious business." Yelena corrected her attitude and said seriously: "I heard from Ning that you want to rent a shop?"

Yan Baoshu nodded, "When did Wan Sining run to you and tell you all of this?"

"It's not that he came to look for me, but that I happened to meet him two days ago. Is what Ning said true?"

Yan Baoshu smiled and said: "Of course it's true, I've been worrying about this recently, what's wrong?" Yan Baoshu's intuition was that Yelena came here today not just to say goodbye to him, but seemed to have other secrets behind her.

Yelena smiled and said, "I'm here today. Apart from saying goodbye, there is one more thing I want to talk to you about. If my father and I leave, the restaurant will not be able to continue to operate. If you can, would you..."

"Yes, I will, IDO."

Yelena smiled as beautifully as a flower, "But the rent is not cheap."

Yan Baoshu was immediately overwhelmed by the reality. If the rent was too expensive, he would really... But Yan Baoshu also thought about it, no matter how expensive it was, he would find a way to rent the place. After all, the location of the restaurant was very good. Shanglaomaozi Restaurant has been operating here for several years, although it is quitting now, as long as people remember that once they pass by the door, Yan Baoshu can make a lot of money.

Yan Baoshu asked, "How much is the rent?"

Yelena gestured a number, "How is it?"

Yan Baoshu's eyes widened, "Yelena, are you sure about what you said?"

Yelena smiled and said, "It's impossible for others, but you are my friend, so of course I'm willing to help you."

Yan Baoshu was very moved, "Yelena, you are really my lucky star."

"I like this metaphor very much." After speaking, Yelena stood up, "Come to the store to take a look when you have time, but it can't be too late, because my father and I may go back the day after tomorrow."

Yan Baoshu wondered, "If it weren't for me, you wouldn't be able to sell the shop within a few days."

"If there is no you, there will be people here. My father and I will go first."

"Well, that's good, I'll be there tomorrow."

"OK. Waiting for you."

After Yelena left, Yan Baoshu hurriedly found Wan Sining. After some negotiations, the two finally decided to rent Lao Maozi Restaurant. The price Yelena offered was [-] yuan. In terms of this rent, it was already too cheap. It couldn't be cheaper.Lao Maozi restaurant has two floors, each floor occupies a large area. Yan Baoshu does not understand Russian cuisine, but he can rent the shop to operate other, such as Western or Chinese food. As for the second floor, It can be used as a billiard hall and a dance hall, which is simply killing two birds with one stone.

After Si Ning listened to Yan Baoshu's plan, he agreed, and the two of them began to prepare money without saying a word. They had money in their hands for the few small businesses they had run in the past, and they took out the bills to settle the bill. Eight hundred yuan is really not that difficult. In the early morning of the next day, the two found Yelena, and at the same time met Yelena's father, who was the owner of the restaurant.

Yelena's father looked very greasy, but he was a nice person. Although [-] yuan was not his ideal price, because Yelena loved Yan Baoshu so much, he agreed.After many years, Yan Baoshu found out that Yelena's father was ashamed of Yelena, so he agreed to her request.

Although the contract is simple, it is a proof. The two parties have signed the contract and paid the rent, which means that the deal has been reached. When Yelena and his father left, Yelena left an address, which was also Russian. Yelena said that The final rent can be sent there.

Yelena's departure made Yan Baoshu and Wan Sixing very sad. They and Yelena will always be friends, and they will not forget each other because of the distance. Yelena's beautiful appearance has long been deeply imprinted in their minds.
