Manufacturing Empire in the Valley

Chapter 131: Niu Xiaoqiang Offers Treasure

While talking, Niu Xiaoqiang opened the bag, took out the pen that Huang Li bought for him, and handed it over.

Niu Dongxiang took a look at it, and then she was pleasantly surprised: "This is a premium fountain pen of the Hero brand. It costs more than six yuan a piece. My sister has always wanted to have one, but she has no money to buy it. Thank you, brother!"

When Niu Xiaoqiang heard that the pen was worth more than six yuan, he couldn't help being surprised, and his favorable impression of Huang Li increased a lot.Although this pen is very expensive, Niu Xiaoqiang, who gave it to his sister, didn't feel bad at all. He smiled naively and said, "Thank you, we are all family."

The eldest sister, Niu Chunxiang, was cooking in the kitchen. After hearing the sound, she poked her head out to say hello to Niu Xiaoqiang, and then went to work again.

Niu Xiaoqiang didn't see his mother, so he couldn't help asking: "Fourth sister, where is mother?"

"He and his third sister went to the vegetable field to pick vegetables. Dad took all the vegetables at home to drink. If they don't pick some vegetables again, they won't have anything to eat at night."

Niu Xiaoqiang said with a happy smile: "The third sister is also back, this relationship is good, our family is almost reunited."

When Niu Xiaoqiang said this, he continued as if thinking of something: "By the way, I bumped into my second sister in the city this time. It's really a coincidence."

Niu Dongxiang was fiddling with the pen in her hand. When she heard this, she looked up at Niu Xiaoqiang with a look of surprise on her face: "Why did the second sister go to the city? Doesn't she work in the county?"

Niu Xiaoqiang told the whole story, and Niu Dongxiang smiled coquettishly after hearing this: "Second sister's salary will increase by nearly 20 yuan after she becomes a regular, so I don't have to worry about going to university in the future!"

Just as Niu Xiaoqiang was about to show off the money he had earned, his mother Sun Mei and Niu Qiuxiang walked in with a vegetable basket.

When they saw Niu Xiaoqiang, they both showed happy smiles and stepped forward to greet him.Niu Xiaoqiang saw that his mother and third sister had also returned, and felt that it would be better to show off at this time, so he put his hand into his pocket.

"Mom, two sisters, what do you think this is?"

The three women in the main room all turned their heads to look over, and then fell into a deathly silence.

Seeing everyone staring at his palms in a daze, Niu Xiaoqiang couldn't help but let out a sigh: "I said everyone, I earned so much money to go home, don't you guys praise me?"

Mother Sun Mei swallowed a mouthful of saliva: "Praise, praise...Of course I have to praise..."

The third sister Niu Qiuxiang said heartily: Fortunately, I didn't take out the 20 yuan salary I just paid, otherwise it would be so embarrassing!

Niu Dongxiang's reaction was the most normal. As soon as Sun Mei finished speaking, she put her arms around Niu Xiaoqiang's shoulders and slapped him on the forehead: "Little brother! You are really capable! Now sister, you don't have to worry about the travel expenses to the capital." !"

In this era, there is no need to pay tuition fees to go to university, but you still have to pay for travel expenses yourself.Niu Dongxiang once asked her teacher to find out that if she took the train from the city to the capital, plus the transfer fee, the total cost would be about 50 yuan.This amount of money is not a small amount for Lao Niu's family.

At present, the family doesn't even have the money to buy pesticides and fertilizers, let alone travel expenses. Niu Dongxiang has been worrying about this all the time.At this moment, seeing Niu Xiaoqiang holding tens of dollars in her hand, and a boulder weighing on Niu Dongxiang's heart finally fell to the ground, it's no wonder that she was so excited.

Niu Xiaoqiang pushed away his fourth sister in embarrassment, and wiped the place where the fourth sister kissed: "Sister, we are not children anymore, is this too careless?"

Niu Dongxiang was in high spirits, why did she care so much, she smiled coquettishly: "You are my own brother, so what's the point if I kiss you? When we were young, we slept in the same bed!"

The living environment of rural families is not that rich, and many families do not have enough beds. When Niu Xiaoqiang was a child, he not only slept with Niu Dongxiang, but also with his three other sisters.This is not a big deal in rural areas, where it happens in almost all families with many children.

Niu Dongxiang's words reminded Niu Xiaoqiang of the embarrassing incident of wetting the bed when he was a child. He quickly changed the subject: "Mom, here is a total of 70 yuan. I earned it with Master. You can put it away."

Niu Xiaoqiang earned a total of 76 yuan, and he only handed in 70 yuan, and the remaining [-] yuan was reserved for emergencies.

Sun Mei put the money into her close pocket with a happy face, and said cheerfully to Niu Qiuxiang: "Sanya, hurry up and steam an egg for your little brother, he has helped the family so much, we should reward him !"

Niu Qiuxiang agreed with a smile, turned and walked into the kitchen.

It didn't take long for Niu Chunxiang to get the news and ran out. She rubbed Niu Xiaoqiang's head with surprise on her face and exclaimed: "Little brother, I thought you were joking with me, but now it seems that you promised me Things really have a door!"

The others all showed curiosity when they heard this, and Niu Dongxiang couldn't help asking: "Sister, what did my younger brother promise you?"

Niu Chunxiang, who knew she had made a slip of the tongue, smiled embarrassedly, not knowing how to answer.Niu Xiaoqiang took 70 yuan to go home this time, and his confidence in front of his family has increased a lot. He didn't bother to hide it, and said the truth directly: "This is exactly what happened..."

When Niu Xiaoqiang finished speaking, Sun Mei slapped him on the forehead angrily and amusedly: "You boy, why do you need to prepare a dowry when your sister is married? Isn't this nonsense? It spreads to make people laugh."

Niu Dongxiang didn't have this kind of thought. She approached her with a smile and asked in a teasing tone: "Little brother, you can't treat one more favorably than another. Shouldn't you show it when fourth sister gets married?"

Niu Xiaoqiang patted his chest all over the place: "I didn't say anything, I definitely won't attend Fourth Sister's wedding empty-handed!"

Sun Mei complained a little on the surface, but she was actually very happy in her heart.Although this incident sounds a bit absurd, it proves the unity and friendship of my family from the side.In Sun Mei's eyes, unity and friendship are the most important elements of this family. As for things like money, they are all secondary.So she didn't criticize Niu Xiaoqiang any more, but followed the three children to make a fuss.

After making a fuss for a while, Sun Mei asked what was in the bag.Niu Xiaoqiang took out the things Fang Dongping gave him one by one as if offering treasures and placed them on the table.

Every time he took out something, the family members would exclaim:

"Wow! It's Moutai!"

"This is Hongtashan cigarettes! And peony! Dad will definitely like it!"

"It's a Dacron shirt! It's not cheap!"

"There are so many notebooks, all made of fine pulp!"
