60s Splendid Life

Today they ate dinner early, and after they had dinner, the sky was still full of red clouds.

The sun was shining during the day, and there was no sun outside at this time in the evening. The old lady said to take them out for a walk. Shen Xing was the first to go out with grandma happily. Lu Jin hugged their little treasure, and Shen Yu followed came out together.

The afterglow of the setting sun sprinkled on the mottled walls, as if coated with a layer of golden light.

The people who live here are all old residents who have lived here for decades. Mrs. Shen knows all the neighbors nearby when she goes out, and greets people along the way.Many people know Mrs. Shen's two grandchildren, but today they saw two more children, and asked Mrs. Shen if they were relatives of their family, the old lady smiled and nodded and said, "A relative is here. "

When Lu Jin listened to the old lady introducing them to people outside, saying that they were relatives of her family, she felt... a bit, how should I put it, like being accepted and recognized by others, as if the old lady really Some people accepted them as relatives and relatives.The old lady's attitude towards them made him feel very warm in his heart.

When he first arrived here, he took his younger brothers and sisters and separated from his relatives in the old house. Relatives are not relatives, they are worse than strangers.The brothers and sisters in the village don't really have a good relationship with the rest of the people except that they are closer to the neighbor Mrs. Qin's family.Their aunt passed away, and they hadn't been in contact with their grandfather for many years. As for his aunt's family, the situation is a bit complicated. He has been here for so long and hasn't found a chance to see Yuanshen's grandfather. , mainly because he is taking a few children with him now, and he can't go that far, so he can only wait to see the situation later.

Seeing others looking at them, Lu Jin gave them a polite smile back.

The old lady and Shen Xing walked in front, and he hugged Xiao Baoer and Shen Yu and walked slowly behind. He turned his head and asked this person, but he still couldn't help asking, "What's the matter with you today? Are you in a bad mood?" ? Why are you so absent-minded?"

"No, I was just thinking about something." Shen Yu turned his head and looked at Lu Jin with concern. The two stood close, and he saw the light reflected in the black pupils in the young man's eyes.

"Oh, that's good. If you have anything on your mind, you can tell me. I promise not to tell others." Lu Jin didn't really think that Shen Yu would tell him anything. It hasn't reached the point where good friends can share secrets. The reason why he said this is that he hopes that the other party will not keep anything in his heart.

"Okay." Shen Yu could see that Lu Jin cared about him, but he wouldn't really tell others about his family's affairs.In order not to continue to dwell on this topic, he changed the subject naturally, and asked Lu Jin, "Did you buy a watch today?" He glanced at Lu Jin's wrist, but he didn't see that he was wearing it on his wrist.

"Well, I got it, do you want to see it?" Seeing this man staring at his wrist, Lu Jin held Xiao Bao'er's buttocks with one hand, and took out the new one he bought today from his pocket with the other free hand. Watch, pass it to Shen Yu to see.

Shen Yu took the watch and looked at it. Naturally, the watch Lu Jin bought couldn't be compared with the one he wore on his wrist, but he noticed that the watch was so big that Lu Jin definitely couldn't wear it on his wrist. He asked, "Is it too big? Should I take it and find someone to cut it down for you?"

"It's okay. I put it in my pocket to tell the time. It doesn't matter if it's big or small. I can wear it when my wrist grows thicker." Lu Jin bought a watch just to tell the time, put it in his pocket and wear it on his wrist It's no different.

Shen Yu looked at the boy who was a head shorter than him and whose wrists looked thinner than the little girl's. When his wrists were thick enough to wear this watch, when would he wait?He just thought so in his heart, so he didn't want to say it out, so as not to hurt the boy, he returned the watch and reminded him out of kindness, "Then put it away and don't lose it." He knew that cheap watches now cost 200 yuan. Yuan is a very expensive thing for many ordinary people.

"I won't lose it." Lu Jin put the watch in his pocket. In fact, he threw it into the space. It's strange that he can throw it away.On the way back, the two of them were talking while walking, and he saw that Shen Yu's face looked the same as usual. As for whether there was something in his heart, he couldn't ask any more.

A group of people wandered around outside and went home.

The red sun hanging in the west is slowly setting, and the red glow in the sky is also gradually dissipating.

The setting sun shines on their shadows, stretching them longer and longer .

On the way, I didn't know what the short boy was talking about. The tall boy turned his head and looked at the short boy who was talking, with a slight curve of his mouth, as if he was smiling.

***

The next morning, he took Little Bao'er to Uncle Liu's and went back. After lunch at Shen's house, Lu Jin went out.It happened that he was going to the pharmacy to get medicine for Xiao Baoer's feet, so he turned to the pharmacy he often went to on the way. After getting the medicine for the child's feet, he bought some marinade and prepared some medicines for the family. It cost a lot of money to order commonly used medicines and a few big bags.

After coming out of the pharmacy, he threw the things he bought into the space, and he went to the rented yard.

Opening the door of the yard and entering, Lu Jin noticed an envelope on the ground. He picked it up and opened it. There was a note inside, which was written to him by Zhang Qing at the guest house, and it said that it would cost twenty catties. Let him send chili sauce and ten catties of bean curd to her today.There is no letter from Aunt Liang. I don't know if there is a list there. I will ask later when I have time.

Not long after he arrived here, Brother Monkey pushed the car from yesterday, and it was filled with a car full of cans, as many as a thousand.The two of them fetched two basins of water at noon, moved two small wooden stools and sat at the door to wash the pots.

But let alone, with so many pots, two people would have to clean five hundred jars on average.

"..." Lu Jin raised his head and glared at the person sitting opposite, very suspicious that this person deliberately shipped all the jars to him for him to help clean!

"Why are you looking at me like that?" Lu Jin stared Liu Zhun with a guilty conscience, and said confidently, "Then...it's not that there is no well in my yard. You have a well here, which is convenient for washing jars."

I believe your evil!Lu Jin snorted coldly, "Swipe quickly, don't babble." You want to be lazy and not work!

If it weren't for the fear that the jar would be dirty and filled with food for customers to eat, he wouldn't be bothered to do this job with the guy who caught him as a coolie.

"I'm just brushing." Liu Zhun looked aggrieved, he didn't know there were so many jars.Turning around, what I thought in my heart was: Fortunately, he is smart and knows to pull the jar here to find another person to help him clean it together, otherwise he would have to clean it by himself until when.

After changing the water for cleaning the jars three times, two people cleaned a thousand jars.

When the last pot was finished, the two sat against the door frame, too tired to talk.

However, after having the jar, Lu Jin also discovered the benefits of having the jar. This small jar is packed in a catty, and it happens to be sent to Zhang Qing's chili sauce and fermented bean curd later. He can take out the small jars and send them over. In this way, Zhang Qing can also give it to the guests.

The water in the jar after drying for a while is still not very dry. Fortunately, there is white wine in his space, so Lu Jin got a bottle of white wine and brushed the jar. After brushing the jar with white wine, put chili sauce and fermented bean curd, don’t worry The chili sauce and fermented bean curd will go bad after a long time.

It's just that Liu Zhun thinks it's too reckless for Lu Jin to use such good wine to wash the pot!Of course, he only dared to say this in his heart. On the surface, he was still diligently brushing the jar with white wine. When brushing, he was careful, careful, and not wasted.

It just so happens that this jar is packed in a catty, and a jar is a catty. Zhang Qing's [-] catties of chili sauce and [-] catties of fermented bean curd are packed in [-] jars.Because he didn't know how many orders Aunt Liang had, Lu Jin filled another forty cans.

As for the goods that Brother Hou needs here, they are all in bulk. If the quantity is large, he will give him the whole jar, and if the quantity is small, he will give him the whole jar and let him pack it himself!

"These goods are left here for you to sell. You can sell as much as you can. I will pay for the goods when I come to town next time." Because considering that he is going back to the countryside tomorrow, Lu Jin can't Stayed in town.There are still two children at home waiting for them to go back. He agreed to go out for two days and go back. He will not stay for three days, so the children at home will worry if they can't wait for them to go back.

So when he left here, Lu Jin didn't want their business to be cut off, so he left a batch of goods here for Liu Zhun to sell, and he would collect money next time he came.

"Really, really leave them all for me to sell?" Liu Zhun pointed to a row of jars inside. When he came back today, he found that there was an extra row of big jars in the room, and one big jar was worth ten smaller jars. If so, it's really a lot.

"I didn't give it to you for nothing!" What are these words, what is left for you?

Lu Jin tightened the last jar, turned to look at this person, and said, "This time there is a lot of goods, I know you don't have much capital, you wait until the goods are shipped, and then settle the money with me. You just need to pay the wholesale price." Just give me the price, and whatever you earn is yours." The two have worked together for so long, and he still believes in each other's character, let alone such a small amount of goods, even if the other party swallowed his money and ran away , he can afford to lose, the big deal is just spending money to buy a lesson.

Sooner or later, this step will have to go out. He can't stay here and stare at the business, he can only hand it over to someone who can stay here and stare at it.
