80s development history

It was autumn and it was getting colder. Xin Wenfang went home to get a change of clothes for old man Xin, and asked Grandma Xin to pack some decent coats. She was about to go out with a cloth bag.

"Excuse me, is this... old Xin's family? I'm looking for his grandson, Xin Andong." Wang Qijun had a simple and honest smile on his face.

The son is definitely Xin Wenfang's lifeblood, and her vigilance came out, and she asked the short, dark-skinned man in front of her calmly, "Why do you want him?"

If there is such a person, then he has not been lied to. The big stone on Wang Qijun’s chest finally fell to the ground. He wiped off the sweat on his face, pointed to the bullock cart behind him and said enthusiastically to Xin Wenfang: “Hi, you are from her family, right? Brother Xin signed a contract with me yesterday, and I came here today to deliver lobsters, according to the agreement, fifty catties, all of which are freshly fished from the river, big sister, please take it, if you are worried, you can weigh it."

Lobsters are in the three vats on the bullock cart?Xin Wenfang looked at the short man in astonishment and then at the three vats on the bullock cart, her head was dizzy, and she raised her voice, "You said that my son signed a contract with you to send you lobsters today? That brat signed with you What contract, what's going on, tell me clearly!"

"Sister! My brother and I have worked hard all day to catch these [-] catties of shrimp. You can't rely on it. I still have a contract. Look, it's written in black and white! Brother Xin said at the beginning, if you don't want our shrimp I have to lose money!" Wang Qijun thought that Xin Wenfang would not admit it, his heart skipped a beat, and he hurriedly took out the contract from his pocket.

How could Xin Wenfang know how to read? With trembling hands, she took the contract written by Xin Andong on the homework paper. Her eyes darkened and her lips trembled, "You brat, see if I don't go home and peel his skin..."

"Mom? Brother Wang? What are you doing standing at the door?" Xin Andong followed his father and third sister to set up a stall home. Just as he saw Brother Wang and his mother confronting each other outside the door, he was confused for a moment, and turned his eyes to the three wooden barrels on the ox cart. On, the brush flashed, and he said happily, "The lobster has been fished? Brother Wang came at the right time, and the crayfish in our house was emptied again today. I was worried that there would be no stock and I would not be able to sell it tomorrow. I didn't expect you So punctual."

"Come in, brother Wang is thirsty, third sister, please pour a glass of water for brother Wang," Xin Andong didn't notice that everyone was looking at him with surprised eyes, and only saw three buckets full of crayfish .

Xin Wenfang gritted her teeth fiercely, pulled her son over, and reprimanded her in a low voice, "Xin Andong, if you don't explain it clearly to me today, see if I don't skin you. What's the matter with this crayfish, fifty catties? You want There are so many lobsters for food, and you even signed that kind of labor contract, you have some skills, right? If you have money in your pocket, you dare to press your fingerprints with people, you brat, I’m not at home these days, What have you done to me, you are going to piss me off!"

Xin Andong was stunned for a moment, and then suddenly realized that he hadn't explained the crayfish to his mother clearly. He made a mistake, and facing his mother's angry eyes, he tugged on Laxin Wenfang's sleeve guiltily and flatteringly, "That Mom, it’s a long story. It’s my fault that I didn’t tell you clearly about this matter, but don’t worry, I’m definitely not fooling around. You pay Brother Wang for the money first, and I’ll explain it to you later. okay mom?"

He looked at his mother beggingly, for fear that his mother would not give the money in a hurry. Although he swore to sign the contract with Brother Wang, the financial power of the family is in the hands of his mother. The soft heart will pay in the end.

really.

"What evil did I do in my previous life to give birth to you, a debt collector!" Xin Wenfang poked Xin Andong's forehead with his fingers. Although he was mad at him, the youngest son has always been well-behaved, and suddenly did something out of the ordinary, and now he begs her pitifully, Xin Wenfang No matter how angry you are, you can't embarrass your family in front of outsiders, so you can only point at Xin Andong's nose bitterly, "You can explain it to me later, if you can't explain it clearly, I will let your dad suck your ass!"

After threatening her, she had no choice but to go home and get the money.

Fifty catties of crayfish, according to the price signed with Wang Qijun before, Xin Andong handed the money ticket to Wang Qijun, and bowed helplessly to Wang Qijun who was still confused, "I'm sorry, Brother Wang, I lied to you yesterday. In fact, I am only 13 years old this year. It is really impossible to go to your village to do business with makeup like that yesterday. If you don’t trust me as a child, I can ask my mother to sign a new contract with you, and you don’t have to do business with me anymore. , after all, I did lie to you about my age yesterday."

Wang Qijun has lived for three or forty years and has never seen a child like Xin Andong. He is young, but he does business well. Last night before he went to bed, he thought about it carefully. He was actually fooled by the other party's mouth. The key I don't know if it's true or not.

Today he brought Lobster here early because he was afraid of encountering a liar, but who knew that the liar was true, the other party turned out to be a little liar, who was about the same age as his daughter!Yesterday, the face was painted black and gray, so I couldn't see it clearly. When we met today, the child had red lips and white teeth, and his appearance was no worse than that of a city child.Deliberately pretending to be an adult is because he is afraid that others will not believe him as a child.

And with the real money in his hand, he is not cheating him, it's just that the person who does business with him has changed from a young man to a child!Wang Qijun couldn't laugh or cry.

Although he was a little embarrassed in his heart, he was really not deceived by the business, and he was reluctant to throw face at others and say no to it. Finally, under Xin Andong's repeated apologies, he re-signed a new contract with Xin Wenfang.

Holding the hot contract just out of the oven, Wang Qijun drove the bullock cart back to the village with extremely complicated emotions.On the way out of Xihe Village, he had a thought, and asked a few villagers in the same village of the Xin family. He heard that the Xin family made a lot of money selling spicy crayfish, and that the grandson of the Xin family had come up with this business. My forehead was sweating, wondering if my past 40 or [-] years had been in vain, and I was not as good as a child.

After Wang Qijun left, the Xin family held a family meeting.

Xin Andong explained his future plan for Xin's restaurant to his parents and third sister carefully. Regarding the current stage, it is best to hurry up and rent a shop to build an authentic lobster restaurant, rather than intrigue with those stall owners and fight for a few businesses every day. Earn bloody waste of time.Because of insufficient funds, the shop of the lobster restaurant is naturally rented. After a certain amount of capital is obtained, the shop can be bought. After the first lobster restaurant is established, the second one can be opened. After the business of the lobster restaurant in Qingshui County stabilizes, you can Expand the business to surrounding counties.Wanran City, the provincial capital, may be the base of Xin's Lobster Restaurant in the future.

Xin Wenfang opened his mouth wide, and couldn't calm down the agitation in his chest for a long time, "Dongzi, you, what are you thinking about all day long, our family is just a small lobster stall, and you said you want to open a lobster restaurant in the provincial capital, lobster What is a restaurant, is there any business just buying lobsters?"

"Dongzi, my sister thinks that what you think is unrealistic. We have no money and have never done business." After a moment of silence, when the turbulent emotions gradually subsided, Xin Anqiu bit her lip and said with complicated eyes. There is a trace of flame that is about to be extinguished, and it is more confusion and fear of the future.

She longed for that ending, but she was too timid to think about it.

Whether it's for his mother or the third sister, Xin Andong knows that what he said just now has completely broken their inherent thinking. In addition to facing the loess and back to the sky every day to focus on the grain in the field, recently because of his suggestion, a crayfish seller was set up at home. The idea that his mother and third sister had been instilled in him made them dare not boldly imagine the big cake he drew.Because that's too exaggerated, too far away, too impossible...

Is it just really impossible?

"As long as you dare to think and do, nothing is impossible. No money can be accumulated slowly. No one is born to do business. You must slowly explore this road. Ming Taizu Zhu Yuanzhang can grow from a commoner to a million people. The emperor above, I dare not compare to that old man, but his legendary story tells us that everything is possible, it just depends on whether you dare to think about it." Xin Andong smiled, and the two dimples on his face loomed, The childish young man seriously asked his mother and third sister: "The elder sister and the second sister are still waiting for us to rescue, and the wolves, tigers and leopards who look down on our family are still guarding the door, shouldn't we fight?"

Xin Wenfang's eyes were red, and she hugged Xin Andong's little head into her arms with trembling hands. Big tears hit the back of his hands, Xin Andong hugged her mother's waist tightly, took a deep breath to suppress the choking in her throat .For a moment, the mother hugged the third sister, who was sobbing constantly, into her arms, and the helpless mother and daughter (child) pressed their hearts tightly together at this moment.

Xin Wenfang, who had made up her mind, changed her indecisive temper, and took over the purchase of lobsters from Xin Andong. She also went to several neighboring villages and settled on two more while the iron was hot, so she no longer had to worry about the supply of lobsters.

Because of this, the Xin family changed from selling lobsters only at noon to selling lobsters at noon and evening at the same time. In this way, the money they earned was more than doubled.And those stall owners who wanted to follow Xin’s family’s lobster business in the evening made a big joke. First, they had no business in the first place, and second, because the lobsters were not clean after being caught, they were made into crayfish. The taste is naturally greatly reduced.Especially when compared with the Xin family's one, the ups and downs stand out.

The most important thing now is to find the shop as soon as possible. For this matter, Xin Andong accompanied his mother in the streets and alleys of Qingshui County for three days. Factors in choosing a store.However, either the good shops have been occupied long ago, or the rent is too high, which the Xin family cannot afford with their current strength.

Xin Wenfang, who was so anxious about the shop that a blister grew on the corner of his mouth, couldn't eat or sleep, and Xin Andong also felt that he had thought about opening a lobster restaurant too simply, just renting a suitable shop would have killed him A lot of brain cells.

"Dongzi, did you hear what I said just now?" Tong Zhenghao poked Xin Andong's arm with a pen in dissatisfaction, "You are distracted again, and you still don't take me seriously as the boss. You treat what I said as fart, right?!"

Xin Andong, who was thinking about something, reluctantly tore down his pen, and expressed that he could not accept Tong Zhenghao's imitation of Teacher Lan's tone of voice. He recently returned to school early because of the composition competition, and the lobster restaurant at home was still in preparation, so how could he have time to spare? Accompany Tong Zhenghao to climb over the wall to steal persimmons.

"Tong Zhenghao, how old are you, can you stop being so naive, and go over the wall and leave school just to steal a few persimmons from others? Is your cousin not willing to give you the money for buying persimmons? You need you to steal others' hard work like a glutton A bitter persimmon tree?"

Tong Zhenghao is not a greedy persimmon, he just doesn't go to the house for a day, and his ass is like a spring growing. What can he do abroad, except study, is to go to the cold research room with his parents, in such a strong academic atmosphere every day I didn't say that he would grow into a gifted boy who loves to learn, but this girl developed to the extreme and directly became a child with ADHD.

Tong Zhenghao was blushed by Xin Andong's words, especially when Guan Chengjie and Yuan Shihong were present, Dongzi didn't give him any face, he was outraged, "Just asking you if you want to go, why so much nonsense!"

"No." Xin Andong packed his books and prepared for the next class.

"Okay, you don't want to go, Xin Andong, from now on you will not be my good brother!" Tong Zhenghao announced angrily, and then pointed his gun at Guang Chengjie and the two, "What are you doing stupidly? If the students don't join us, do you still want to go? Tell me if you don't want to go. I, Tong Zhenghao, have a lot of brothers. I don't care for those who have no conscience!"

He is so kind to Xin Andong, giving him chocolates and giving him a watch, much better than Guan Chengjie and Yuan Shihong, but why does he have no conscience, he is not intimate with him at all, and his words are always thorny!

Guang Chengjie and Yuan Shihong looked at each other, and said in unison: "We listen to the boss!"

Tong Zhenghao glanced at Xin Andong triumphantly, as if to say that you are not worthy of me and that you have someone to accompany me.

This guy has to be taught a lesson before he grows up. Xin Andong was amused and annoyed when he heard the three people next to him discussing how to escape from school after the next class. Jiang Xuanzong is the savior of his family, he really doesn't care about these immature brats.

But the next class will be taught by the notoriously strict teacher Lan. One can imagine how serious the consequences would be if these three skipped class.

Seeing that Xin Andong was reading with his head propped on one hand, Yuan Shihong's mouth suddenly turned up, and he asked Tong Zhenghao intentionally, "Boss, Dongzi won't go with us, but he knows our plan, what if he leaks it out?"

If the plan was leaked out, the most serious consequence would be that Teacher Lan knew about it, and then the three of them were reported and criticized in front of the teachers and students of the whole school. Tong Zhenghao couldn't help frowning whenever he thought of that embarrassing scene, and he looked at Xin Andong with a cold face. Said, "Hey, I warn you, if Teacher Lan finds out that the three of us sneaked out of the school, I will be the first to let you go."

Xin Andong glanced lightly at Yuan Shihong, who had a weird smile on his face. He was not big-hearted and small-minded. Every time Tong Zhenghao went out to make trouble, it was probably contributed by this guy. He really underestimated him.

He stood up and walked towards the door.

"What are you doing?!" Tong Zhenghao raised his chin and asked arrogantly and doubtfully.

Xin Andong turned his head and smiled, his face full of innocence, "In case you bother me later, I'll give you some trouble first, not because I'm afraid I'll sue the teacher, if you like, go now." After finishing speaking, he turned his head and raised his feet to The classroom door is gone.

"Damn it, Xin Andong, stop!" Yuan Shihong called to him with a dark face and angrily.If Xin Andong were to tell Teacher Lan about this, the three of them would definitely invite their parents.

Tong Zhenghao's parents are naturally his cousin, and when he thought of that black-faced god, his heart trembled, and he quickly got up and grabbed Xin Andong's sleeve, sweating from his face, "Xin Andong, I didn't expect you to be so sinister. Man, didn’t I just say something to you, you actually want to sue the teacher, why are you so narrow-minded, I treat you as a brother, but you betray me, Xin Andong, I misjudged you before!”

"Let go."

Tong Zhenghao tightened his grip even more, "Don't let go, don't even think about complaining to Teacher Lan!"

Xin Andong couldn't keep his cold face, pursed the corners of his mouth, looked at Tong Zhenghao with clear water eyes, and said in a gentle voice, "If you don't climb the school wall with them to steal persimmons, I won't sue the teacher, will you agree?"

"I..." Tong Zhenghao's eyes flashed in his moist eyes, and he went through a difficult battle between heaven and man in his mind. Under the urgent eyes of Guan Chengjie and Yuan Shihong, he finally defeated his fear of his cousin for stealing persimmons. Tempted, pouted and lowered his head, "Don't sue the teacher, at worst I won't go."

Guan Chengjie and Yuan Shihong finally gave Xin Andong an angry look, and left disappointed.

After school, Tong Zhenghao insisted on following Xin Andong on the grounds that he left his two good brothers in anger. in his body.

"Hey, I really have something to do today, you go home quickly."

Tong Zhenghao tied his head on Xin Andong's neck, and said proudly, "I won't bother you while you're busy with your business, and I'm not allowed to walk with you? The road doesn't belong to your house."

"Then you can let go of my head office. The shoulder is mine. You are so heavy, you will crush me to death." Xin Andong felt his teeth itch.

"Don't let go, it's comfortable to lie on you," Tong Zhenghao cheekily refused to let go, and just stood up straight with a little kindness, without putting all his weight on him, "Okay, you can go now .”

Xin Andong was defeated by him, so he had no choice but to walk along the streets and alleys of Qingshui County to continue looking for stores.

After searching around but to no avail, Xin Andong was so tired that he was out of breath.At this time, Tong Zhenghao had already let go of him, with his hands in his pockets, the tall boy was walking on the green brick path, the dim yellow sunset fell from above his head, and a soft halo enveloped the bodies of the two boys, one tall and one short .

"Are you looking for a shop?" Tong Zhenghao asked boredly.

Xin Andong nodded, "We are going to open a shop, but the stall is inconvenient after all." He is not in good health. Although Tong Zhenghao had already carried the schoolbag on his chest, his legs were still sore.

It was getting late, Xin Andong asked Tong Zhenghao to give him the schoolbag, "I have to go home, give me the schoolbag."

Tong Zhenghao didn't move, he smiled and said to Xin Andong, "Why don't you go home with me, my grandfather is going to the provincial capital for a meeting, my sister is on duty tonight, and I will starve to death at home alone, you come home with me Get something to eat."

"Where's your cousin?" Xin Andong asked, he didn't want to be a cook for Tong Zhenghao, how could Jiang Xuanzong starve his cousin to death.

Tong Zhenghao curled his lips in disdain, "You ask him? My cousin is a busy man, let alone me, it would be nice if he can remember to drink saliva when he is busy. I count on him to die faster."

There was no way, Tong Zhenghao begged repeatedly, and promised to send him home at night, what was even worse was that this guy accompanied Xin Andong to the hospital, and told Xin Wenfang about it, the mother who was so grateful to Tong's family naturally ignored her son's objection, He was ordered to go home with Tong Zhenghao to feed the little ancestor.

But he was really a little ancestor. Before Xin Andong left, Xin Wenfang stuffed him with five yuan, asking him to buy some food and cook something delicious for Tong Zhenghao.Xin Wenfang was very reassured about her son, he would definitely be fine with cooking, so she was very relieved to pack her son for Tong Zhenghao to take away, and when Tong Zhenghao suddenly suggested that Xin Andong could live in his house, since he would have classes tomorrow anyway , Xin Andong saw his mother was only stunned for a moment, and agreed readily, and emphasized to Xin Andong by the way, it is best not to starve Tong Zhenghao tomorrow morning.

Xin Andong: "..." Dinner is not enough, breakfast is also included, right?
