80s development history

The old couple of the Xin family knew Wang Qijun. According to Mrs. Xin, he was the honest man who delivered lobsters to our family. They are old, and they are not prepared to worry about this matter.

When Xin Andong came home, it was just in time for lunch. The food was cooked by grandma. She specially cut a piece of hare bacon, which was picked up by his father a few months ago. Keep it until the Chinese New Year.

At home, the old couple would not be so greedy for the precious piece of rabbit meat, but Mrs. Xin was reluctant to eat it herself, but she was willing to find something good for her grandson to eat. After thinking about it, this piece of wild rabbit meat was rare at home, and she immediately said nothing. Not to mention cutting a fat piece.

Tomato scrambled eggs, braised eggplant, a braised fish, and stir-fried rabbit meat. It can be said that it is a rare and hearty table dish in the Xin family, which is Xin Andong. Otherwise, Mrs. Xin would never be willing to buy such a table. She and the old man ate at home It's either vegetable rice or simple boiled vegetables that don't look greasy at all. If Xin Andong didn't buy some meat from time to time to nourish the old couple, they would eat worse than rabbits.

When Xin Andong eats with his grandparents, he will take good care of the elderly and often bring them food, probably because they are reluctant to eat, so he preemptively piles up the old couple's bowls so that they can't find an excuse to stop eating .

After lunch, the house was relatively cold. At this time, unlike modern times, there is air-conditioning, and it is warm to take a nap. If he was really allowed to lie on the hard quilt bed, Xin Andong would definitely be frozen stupid. Solved, he has to go out for another trip.

I can’t always wear my grandpa’s military overcoat. The old man himself only has one. It’s used as a padded coat during the day and a quilt cover at night. In fact, he can’t leave it without it. Grandpa forced him to wear it because his face turned purple from the cold. Yes, if it wasn't for the fact that Xin Andong's cotton coat wasn't too thick, and he had to go out again, the key was his body that was afraid of the cold, so he accepted the old man's kindness.

But it’s not necessary now, the down jacket Zongge gave him will not be worn at this time, and when will it be? He unfolded the brown down jacket and looked at the thick and light one. He put it on, zipped it up and buttoned it, put his hands in his pockets, and put on the hat again, his whole body was really warmer.

"Hey, why are you taking out these brand-new clothes and wearing them right now? You don't have to pay attention to them. It's because you don't know the goods!"

Xin Andong had just put on the down jacket, when Grandma Xin saw it, she was about to jump up and walk up to him quickly, staring at him, wishing she could take the down jacket off him.

Xin Andong had already told her that it was given by Jiang Xuanzong. After the old couple were surprised, they were reluctant to let Xin Andong give up the down jacket like a baby.

He dodged the hand extended by the old lady, clutched the zipper, and begged pitifully, "Grandma, I'm cold, and the down jacket is warmer. I have to go out later. You said that if I don't wear something thicker, I will catch a cold." What to do?"

Mrs. Xin was still uncompromising, and said, "Then you wear your grandfather's military coat, which is thick and warm, and the down jacket is a new one. During the Chinese New Year, grandma will bring it out for you to wear."

"Grandpa doesn't have any clothes to wear. I always wear his clothes. Grandpa should be cold too. Besides, Chinese New Year is different from now. It's only a few days away." Xin Andong knew the old lady would like him best, so he pulled grandma vigorously. Acting like a baby with his hands, he is not afraid of being disgusted to death by himself.

"You know it's only a few days away, and you can't wait for a few days?!" Grandma Xin was tortured by her grandson. Two days ago, she told her wife that her grandson had grown up and became sensible. Today, she is still a kid who wants to wear beautiful clothes. , and said angrily, "You put on the padded jacket your mother bought for you early, and you have to wear this down jacket again. Grandma sees that you are so beautiful. It is not uncommon to wear that one too much. If you want to blame this expensive one. Come on, take it off!"

He couldn't take it off, it was rare to wear a down jacket, he felt a lot more relaxed, and he became more enthusiastic after a while, so he was even more reluctant to take it off.

"Grandma, I'm so cold. When you touch my hand, it looks like a popsicle. And my face is almost swollen from purple. When I went out in the morning, my nose still felt a little itchy. It's cold, I think I'll catch a cold if I don't wear something thicker."

Pretending to be good and being pitiful, he finally persuaded the stubborn old lady, and Xin Andong went out wearing a brand new and warm down jacket, feeling like he was alive again.

He has no means of transportation, relying solely on his two legs. The wild flowers and grass on the road are bare and covered with a layer of hoarfrost, which makes people feel cold. It takes more than half an hour to walk from his own village to another village. , Fortunately, the energy consumption in the body generated heat while walking, and he was finally no longer cold.

The two pigs bought in Wangjia Village were due to Wang Qijun’s reasons. On the one hand, the acquaintance of the two gave Wang Qijun a chance to make money. On the other hand, he was afraid that buying pigs in his own village would attract the attention of other villagers.Although everyone in the village knows that the Xin family sells lobsters in the county, not many people know that they are no longer just setting up a stall but opening a shop.

The Xin family keeps a low profile, they don't go out to brag, and they make a fortune silently when they make money, just because they are afraid that the villagers will speak ill.Don't blame the Xin family for being small-bellied. In fact, people in the countryside are like this. When you are poor and I am poor, everyone will be more simple when we are poor together. What's more, the Xin family used to be very poor, and now if other people know that they have opened a shop in the county, they will definitely be fried.

People with prefixes behind their butts who can't eat have become big bosses. Can you not be envious?When setting up stalls, how many villagers would follow suit and sell lobsters, even now there are still several households in the village selling lobsters at stalls, that is, the taste is not good, and the business is hindered.And Ge Jinhua, fortunately, the Xin family can come up with such a vicious method to harm Xin Andong's family. If it weren't for Brother Zong, their family would have been ruined because of their father's mistake. How could they still be free and happy now.

Therefore, Xin Andong had a bad impression of the people in this village. He would rather walk for half an hour than buy pigs in this village, let alone cause troubles.

The person Xin Andong found was also surnamed Wang, named Wang Aihua. Wang Aihua was also a supplier of Xin's Lobster Restaurant, but the amount he could supply was relatively small, basically only once a week.It's not that Xin Andong doesn't want to accept his lobsters, but that Wang Aihua is still studying and his time to catch lobsters is limited.

Wang Aihua, 17 years old this year, is a high school student. His father died early, and there is only his widowed mother and him in the family.His reputation in their village is no less than Xin Andong's reputation in the village. Both of them are top-notch but poor at home. Xin Andong is better, at least his parents are healthy and his grandparents are there.

Wang Aihua is miserable, although his name looks like a girl, but he is a pure man, but this pure man's life is not very good, his mother was born with dystocia, his father was exhausted when he was digging the river, fell asleep, and never woke up come over.Grandpa and grandma are the best, but my uncle never cared about his and his mother's life or death. Wang Aihua had to shoulder the burden of the family since he was a child, take care of his seriously ill mother, and he was forced to go to high school because of his outstanding grades and his mother's hard work. Grit your teeth and let him go.

Wang Aihua is a dutiful son, there is no doubt about it, he didn’t want to go to school anymore because his mother was burdened by tuition fees, but his mother forced him to accept his fate and carry his schoolbag on his back to continue studying, but the family couldn’t get rid of it, and the school needed money to buy books. Wang Aihua was desperate, and happened to walk to the door of Xin's Lobster Restaurant.

I don't know what he was thinking. He took the initiative to ask Xin Wenfang whether he would accept lobsters. Xin Wenfang was stunned at the time. The Xin family lobster restaurant had a stable source of customers, and the daily demand for lobsters was also stable. With Wang Qijun as the big head, the Xin family had no There is no need for lobsters, so Xin Wenfang is ready to reject Wang Aihua.

Just when his heart was ashamed, Xin Andong, who had noticed Wang Aihua early, appeared at this time. Regardless of his mother's eyes, he smiled and talked with Wang Aihua about the acquisition conditions of the lobster until the overjoyed boy left, and Xin's mother grabbed him Xin Andong smiled and said, "Saving someone's life is better than building a seven-level pagoda."

At that time, he knew that Wang Aihua was in trouble, and he had a big difficulty. It happened that he had a little ability and could help.

In the past six months, Wang Aihua has delivered lobsters to Xin's family on time every week. They are all clean and big. He has never had a dead lobster to perfuse him. Others have found such a sincere partner for themselves.

"Dongzi?" The tall and thin Wang Aihua was startled when he opened the courtyard door and saw Xin Andong. After welcoming him in, he quickly poured a cup of hot water and asked without knowing why, "The day after tomorrow is the time to deliver shrimps. Are you here today?" , do you want shrimp in advance?"

Logically speaking, it is impossible. The demand for Xin's lobsters has always been stable, and the days when he delivers lobsters are also stable.

It was so cold outside that the child's nose was red from the cold, Wang Aihua fetched another basin of hot water, washed a hot towel and handed it to Xin Andong.

Xin Andong unbuttoned the down cap on his head, took the towel and wiped his face and hands. He felt much more comfortable before sitting down.

Wang Aihua's mother was recuperating in the next room. Before Xin Andong came, he was doing his homework. Xin Andong saw that the textbooks he put on the small table were clear at a glance. He took a sip of hot water and felt that he had finally come back to life. Shaking his head with a glass of water, he said to Wang Aihua, "No, I didn't come to you today because of the lobster. Brother Aihua, I need your help."

"You said, as long as I can help, I will definitely not shirk." The tall and thin boy said without hesitation.

Wang Aihua has such a temperament, he knows how to repay his kindness, and regards Xin Andong as a lifesaver very highly, as if he has no money now, but sometimes it is rare to catch one or two eels or crabs when fishing for lobsters. When I go to Xin's house to deliver lobsters, I often bring them to Xin Andong. This seemingly insignificant thing can actually reflect a person's heart. At least Xin Andong has a good impression of this little brother in front of him. If it weren't for him, he would definitely be in college. Xin Andong decided to bring this kind of talent into his command early.

He knew very well that Wang Aihua would definitely take the road of going to college and eating state food in the future, so he was really embarrassed to bother the talented student in front of him with ordinary trivial matters, just for fear of disturbing his study. In fact, he could find someone else to buy pigs, but he always When thinking of making money, Wang Aihua immediately popped into his head. Before, he was hesitant to buy pigs at a young age, and what he needed was not live pigs, so he had to kill them. Finally, after thinking twice, he went to Wang Qijun. But now that Wang Qijun is unreliable, Xin Andong thought of Wang Aihua again.

"Brother Aihua, I want to ask you to help me buy two pigs, and I have to kill them now. I only take the pork home. I need it urgently. It's best to get it done today. See if you can help me with this. If you can help, I will give you the money to buy the pig right now." Xin Andong sniffed and looked at Wang Aihua eagerly.

Wang Aihua was stunned for a moment by his big watery eyes, nodded conditionally, and said dryly, "Yes, I can help."
