Back to 90s she just wants to get rich

Chapter 230. 229. Life Ideals and Creeds

Xiang Jin and the others returned to the shop, where there were still many students eating, Yan Chen suggested, "Why don't we go back first?"

Xiang Jin felt that staying in the town for a long time would not be very interesting, so she nodded in agreement, and then she called Yang Xin, "Yang Xin, go and help my sister bring out the bag of bones that I gave you at that time." ? My sister is going back."

"Are you going back?" Yang Xu and Yang Xin obviously showed reluctance to her.

Xiang Jin nodded at them, and then patted Yang Xin's little head again, "Well, sister's business on the street is over, but there are still some things at home, so I'll go back first."

"Oh, okay," the little guy was obviously depressed, but he still went into the kitchen obediently.

Xiang Jin and Yan Chen were waiting there, and then Yang Xu asked her, "Then when will you come to town again?"

Xiang Jin said, "I'll come during the next holiday. I heard that both of your brothers have transferred to the town to study. Do you want to study hard?"

"Yeah," Yang Xu nodded with lowered eyes.

Seeing his awkward little appearance, Xiang Jin felt it was funny, Yang Xin took out the pocket and handed it to her, Yan Chen stretched out his hand to help her take it.

After her mother cut a piece of stewed pork for a student, she turned sideways and said to her, "Why are you buying bones again? I bought them this morning?"

Xiang Jin explained, "At that time, I went to Uncle Feng's shop to find Brother Feng, and then I saw that there were still some stick bones and two ribs left in their shop, so I asked them to weigh them together. When I bring it back, let Grandpa and the others make bone soup for Hucai and Ahua."

"Oh, is that the case?"

Xiang Jin nodded.

Then her second aunt said, "It's not yet o'clock, you don't even have a car when you go back now, I think you can just eat your food here before going back."

Her uncle and second uncle also nodded and said yes, and went back after eating.

Xiang Jin just looked at so many people in the store, but finally shook his head, "No, let's go up later to see if the taxi is fast enough."

"Then you wait a moment," her second aunt shouted to Jin and her eldest aunt inside, "Sister-in-law, pick up some steamed buns for Jin's girls and take them out. They want to come back now."

"Oh, good!" Her eldest aunt replied.

"You still sell steamed buns now?" Xiang Jin asked.

Her second aunt shook her head, "No, it's still Roujiamo. It's Yang Xu and Yang Xin. The two of them wanted to eat buns two days ago, but we haven't had time to make buns for them. There are few customers today, so we took the time." Pack a little."

"Oh, I see!"

Her second aunt nodded.

Xiang Jin's mother reminded Xiang Jin, "In the morning, I left a few pieces of stewed beef and two pig ears at home, when you go back, I will send you a piece of stewed beef for Aunt Liao, and wait Let Yan Chen go over there to bring back a piece of stewed beef and a pig's ear for his grandparents, and you can take the rest to eat with Yang Hui and Yang Zhao and his brothers when you go back to school in the afternoon. Did you hear that? ?”

Xiang Jin responded, "Oh, I see, you also marinated the beef, why didn't you tell me last night?"

Her mother said, "I forgot, it's not much, just a few pieces of that tendon meat, I asked you Uncle Feng last time and they said that if there is beef in the vegetable market, they can collect some for me. They brought it to me when delivering the goods. They slaughtered a cow the night before yesterday, and it was almost divided by the people there. He helped me grab a few pieces of the tendon meat, and then delivered it yesterday. I brought them together when I got the goods, and I left in a hurry this morning, so I forgot to explain this to your grandpa, so don’t forget when you go back, huh?"

"Don't worry, don't forget!"

Her eldest aunt will soon bring out the buns and steamed buns. When Xiang Jin and Yan Chen saw it, they couldn't help but be speechless, "Oh, so many? Auntie, you are taking all the buns and steamed buns in your shop." Are you finished?"

Look at this pocket, at least twenty or thirty.

Her eldest aunt just laughed, "How can it be? In our shop, dozens of baskets of steamed buns are steamed every day. How much do you have? Take it home and have it with your grandfather and younger sisters at noon." .

In addition, I also brought some for your Aunt Liao and Yan Chen’s grandparents. Usually, the two of them don’t bother to bother to steam them. In the morning, they can just cook some porridge and heat up two steamed buns, which saves time. .

I packed them in separate bags, and when I go back later, I just bring them to them. "

"okay!"

Yan Chen thanked her, and Xiang Jin's uncle and aunts said, "Thank you, it's not something expensive, just eat a little casually, besides, your grandparents usually treat Miss Jin, her grandfather and Xiang Lan a lot. Taking care of them, we should occasionally bring them a few steamed buns to eat with porridge."

Yan Chen nodded slightly, and then the two greeted them and went back.

Neither of them had the habit of eating while walking, so Xiang Jin didn't ask him if he wanted to eat steamed buns or steamed buns. Instead, he walked towards the station with a bag of steaming steamed buns.

It was not yet the departure time, but someone happened to be riding a motorcycle to Saiguan Township. The two negotiated a price with the other party and asked him to take them to Zaoerya.

Xiang Jin pulled Yan Chen aside and whispered to him, "I don't like getting too close to strangers, you sit in the middle, and I sit in the back."

The corner of Yan Chen's mouth curled up, "Okay, but you have to hold me tighter later, or be careful that you fall down later?"

"Ok!"

So the two walked towards the motorcycle driver, and then Yan Chen stepped on the motorcycle first, and reached out to her, "Give me the bag?"

Xiang Jin said, "It's okay, I can take it."

"Give it to me?!" He stared at her persistently.

Xiang Jin had no choice but to hand her the bag of steamed buns in his hand, then also stepped onto the motorcycle, and stretched out his hands to wrap tightly around Yan Chen's waist, the corners of Yan Chen's mouth curled up almost invisibly.

"It's five yuan for the two of us. Although it's a bit expensive, it's still fast. I checked the time just now, and it only took 10 minutes to take the motorcycle, which is faster than taking the shuttle bus. In the past, it usually took half an hour for us to take the bus," Xiang Jin said to Yan Chen after the two got off the bus at Zao'erya, "It seems that I still have to tell my mother to buy a car when the time comes. motorcycle."

Yan Chen said, "It's fast, but you still have to pay attention to safety. Today, the master drove a little fast at the beginning, and he didn't know how to slow down at the corners. If we didn't remind him from time to time, I guess He doesn't know how to honk his horn at the corners, if another car drives towards him, it is very easy to have a car accident, it is dangerous!"

Xiang Jin nodded, "This is true."

When approaching Xiang Jin's door, Xiang Jin reminded Yan Chen, "Don't forget, come to our house to get something?"

"Ok!"

When Xiang Jin came home, her grandfather was about to go to the kitchen to make lunch, so she hurriedly called him and said, "Just cook porridge, uncle and aunt brought us steamed buns, we'll eat this later. "

"Okay!" Her grandfather answered.

Xiang Jin saw Xiang Lan who was busy making shuttlecocks, so she told her, "Xiang Lan, go cook the pot, don't do nothing all day long, and rely on adults for everything!"

"Oh." Although the little girl was a little reluctant, she still went as she said.

After Xiang Jin took out the bag of buns and steamed buns from their house, he handed Yan Chen's share to him, then went to the kitchen and took out the stewed vegetables her mother had left for the two of them. Handed one to Yan Chen, and she planned to send the other to Aunt Liao with him later.

But Xiang Jin felt a bit inappropriate if she was just walking in the bay with two plastic bags swaggering like that, so she went to find a basket with a lid, and put the buns, steamed buns and stewed beef in it , "Do you want a basket, I'll get you one too? Our family has several such baskets."

Yan Chen looked at the things in his hand, then nodded, "Yes!"

So Xiang Jin went to find him another basket.

After Yan Chen packed the things, he said, "If you're busy, I'll bring Aunt Liao's copy to her."

After thinking for a while, Xiang Jin handed the basket directly to Yan Chen, "Okay, then please bring it to her, I won't go there, I do have something else to do."

The clothes she bought for them last time, she only washed thermal underwear for them, but she didn't have time to wash them like sweaters and coats. Her grandfather, a man, rarely does laundry, so those clothes are still hanging in the closets in their respective rooms.

It was just a little past twelve o'clock, and there was still plenty of time, so she took it out and cleaned it for them.

"It's okay, then I'm leaving?" Yan Chen took it and followed suit.

Xiang Jin nodded, and then reminded, "Well, but don't forget to tell your grandpa about the two customers we contacted them today, as well as the sample dishes and prices, and tell them not to come At that time, the price quoted was the same as that of the radish and cabbage."

"okay, I get it!"

After Yan Chen left, Xiang Jin hurriedly dragged out the two large stainless steel basins at home, and put them in the yard to wash their clothes.

It took her less than two hours to wash more than a dozen sets of clothes, and it was finally finished when her grandfather helped wring out the water on the thick clothes. She felt that her arms were fast after washing the clothes. It's not my own anymore, it's so sore.

Her grandfather said with some distress, "Too much washing today, you should put that clothes there and I will wash them myself when I am free."

Xiang Jin said, "It's okay, the weather is fine these few days, and it's full of sun, I can wash it all at once, what if the weather suddenly changes one day later?
Besides, you are busy every day, my mother is not at home, you have to take care of the house and the field, and weave straw mats when you are free. How can you have time to wash clothes? "

Her grandfather nodded, "I'm a little busy recently."

Xiang Jin called Xiang Lan over, asked her to pinch her arm, and then told her grandfather about the vegetables in the greenhouse.

Her grandfather nodded straight after hearing this, and after Xiang Jin felt that her arm was no longer so sore, she got up and went to the field to look. Since returning from vacation, she hasn't been to his grandfather's greenhouse vegetable field yet. She went to see it, and she had to take a good look at it when she had time.

Her grandfather also followed, and finally asked, "How is it?"

Xiang Jin nodded, "Well, it's pretty good. I think those vegetables are growing very well. It's good to keep it like this. Oh, by the way, aren't the vegetables in Grandpa Zeng and Aunt Liao's family too? How long?"

Her grandfather nodded, "Well, their family's growth is similar to ours. Your Grandpa Zeng and Aunt Liao take care of them every day, and they are more meticulous than my care."

Xiang Jin nodded, "That's good. If the seedlings emerge at that time, they will be replanted immediately. However, when the weather is not very cold, some ventilation holes should be released during the day, and then those holes will be replanted in the afternoon. Seal it, and after the vegetables grow out, you still need to water them properly so that the soil will not be too dry, which will affect the growth of vegetable seedlings."

Her grandfather nodded, "Well, I know, I plan to water some water tomorrow."

"Grandpa, now Yang Xu and Yang Xin have transferred to study in the township school, and Yang Hui and Yang Zhao are also studying in the township school. Do you want grandma to come and live with you here? , can I help you when you harvest the vegetables?" Xiang Jin suddenly suggested again.

Her grandfather said, "Oh, no, your grandma still has to take care of the house. The three of us have so much food at home, and we also raise chickens, ducks and pigs at home. Your two uncles are each There are a few at home, and some of our own, and the cattle may be transferred in a few days, and your grandmother is at home every day. There are many things."

"Oh, yes, I forgot about that."

Her grandfather waved his hand, "It's okay, the two of us have been together for decades, what's the point of living apart for a while?"

Xiang Jin just laughed, "I'm just afraid that you two won't get used to it after being separated for a long time."

"There's nothing you're not used to, you're all used to it."

In the afternoon, when the three of them went back to school, Zeng Qing said to them, "Xiang Jin, I saw you in town today."

"Huh? Did you go to town today?" Xiang Jin was taken aback for a moment, then asked.

Zeng Qing nodded, "Well, my mother and I went to the clothing store on the street you mentioned to buy clothes, the clothes there are really cheap?

My mother bought a coat for each of us in the family, and the total cost was less than 400 yuan. Thank you very much for telling us such a good place. "

Xiang Jin said, "It's okay, we are all neighbors in Wantou, we should help each other, oh, by the way, where did you see us?"

Then Zeng Qing said, "On the road of convincing, we saw you coming out of a restaurant, and then there seemed to be someone behind you. I wanted to call you, but I saw you walking very fast. I turned to another street all of a sudden, and we were in a hurry to drive, so I didn't look for you.

Why, your own family owns a food shop, why do you still eat in restaurants outside? "

Xiang Jin knew that she had misunderstood, so he didn't bother to explain, and said, "I heard that the stir-fried dishes in that restaurant are good, so we went to try it."

"Oh, is that so?"

"Yeah!" Xiang Jin nodded slightly, then saw her bulging backpack and a bamboo skewer in her hand, and asked, "Are you going to knit a sweater or a scarf?"

"You saw this too?" Zeng Qing was surprised.

Xiang Jin said, "Obviously, the bamboo sticks you cut so long are not for weaving. Could it be for boiling rice noodles for others?"

Zeng Qing just smiled, "It's okay to tell you, I plan to use it to weave a scarf and a pair of gloves for myself, I wanted to buy them on the street today, but I saw that the scarves on the street are very expensive Yeah, one piece costs more than [-] yuan, I don’t think it’s worth it, so I bought wool and plan to knit it myself.”

Xiang Jin asked again, "Does your family allow you to do this?"

Zeng Qing suddenly became mysterious, "Of course we can't let them know. If we let them know, what's the matter? You must beat me up, thinking that I'm delaying my studies. I secretly took advantage of my mother's absence today. Be careful to buy it from the shop next door that sells woolen yarn, my mother doesn't know about it at all, so don't tell me about it?"

Xiang Jin said, "I'm not a gossip."

Zeng Qing laughed immediately, and showed off to her as if picking up a treasure, "Let me tell you, I weighed a big lump of wool for only a few dollars, and the girls in the dormitory that day didn't know where they were. I bought it from a shop in that field in our village, and I only bought two or two taels of wool for five yuan, and I bought almost half a catty of wool for seven yuan today."

"There are still girls knitting in your dormitory?" Xiang Jin was surprised again.

Zeng Qing said, "Isn't it? Many girls in our dormitory are knitting. If it weren't for their influence, I wouldn't have thought of this when I bought the scarf today."

Xiang Jin gave her a thumbs up, "Amazing!"

Zeng Qing said, "I'm not good at it, they are, especially Zhao Xiaomei and Luo Qiuyan, they are knitting sweaters, and they're already half-knitting, alas, Xiang Jin, how about you Go buy some wool and knit?"

Xiang Jin just waved his hand, "I'll forget it, I'm not born with that talent."

Zeng Qing sighed, "Oh, there are still things you are not good at?"

Xiang Jin said, "Of course there are things I'm not good at. I'm a human being, not a god. No one is perfect. How can I be good at everything?"

Zeng Qing said, "What? You don't know. In my heart, you were good at everything. You are amazing!"

Xiang Jin stopped immediately, "Don't, don't give me a high hat, I can't stand it."

Zeng Qing suddenly suggested, "Oh, how about I teach you? In fact, knitting is very simple. You are so smart, you must learn everything quickly, and you will learn it all at once!"

Xiang Jin waved his hand and shook his head, "No need, I really have no talent for that, and I'm not interested in that either."

The corner of Yan Chen's mouth curled up, she didn't have any talent, she clearly didn't want to learn those things at all, it's true that she wasn't interested.

Perhaps in her opinion, instead of wasting all that time and energy on knitting that boring sweater, it would be better to use that time reasonably to write a few manuscripts, and when the time comes to earn the manuscript fee, how many pieces does she want? Can't buy sweaters and trousers?

The more he gets in touch with her, the more he understands that Xiang Jin's time control is particularly strict and important. She doesn't like to waste it, especially on things that don't have much meaning. to do more valuable things.

This point is quite consistent with himself, and he doesn't like wasting time on boring people and things.

"Xiang Jin?" Suddenly Zeng Qing called her again.

"Huh? What's the matter?"

Zeng Qing took a look at Yan Chen and hesitated a bit.

"Huh?" Xiang Jin stared at her, "It's okay, just tell me if you have anything to say."

Zeng Qing said, "Can I wash my jacket and hang it with you to dry? I heard that some people in school have dirty hands and feet and steal clothes all the time."

"Hey, what's the matter, is it okay? I thought you were going to say something great? Let's hang it after washing. Anyway, our thick clothes have been washed and dried before."

Zeng Qing said, "Aren't I just afraid that your place will be crowded and crowded, and the clothes will not be easy to dry? I heard that Yang Zhao's clothes are also dried in your place."

Xiang Jin nodded, "Well, that's true."

"Oh, by the way, the people in Wantou also said that your family is about to lose money," Zeng Qing then told her again.

"Huh? Who said that?" Xiang Jin frowned.

Look, this is what people are thinking about again. Xiang Jin feels that in this day and age, as long as he achieves a little bit, even a little bit better than other people's family, his achievements will be infinitely magnified by others .

This feeling of being watched all the time makes her feel a little uncomfortable now. It is probably caused by the result of being revenged in the previous life. Therefore, his life ideal and creed in this life is to make a fortune silently, Enjoy life, the philosophy of life is to keep a low profile as much as possible.

Zeng Qing said, "Many people are saying that your family opened a shop on the street, and your mother sells the meat very expensively, and there are many people buying things in your shop every day."

Xiang Jin said, "Don't listen to their nonsense, they only know that other people's houses are doing business, but they don't know how high the cost behind those businesses is?

Why does my mother sell that meat very high?They don't even think about how much cooked meat can be cooked from a pound of raw pork?
And the rent for utilities, coal and firewood is free?

And my mother's manual labor is not considered money, is it?
Those who only see the entry but not the exit know that they are talking nonsense.

It will be September and October when our house is repaired. From September and October to April and May next year, our family will not get any income. What if my mother doesn’t start a business?Are we waiting for our family of three to drink northwest wind and beg for food? "

Zeng Qing said, "That's right, they are some jealous people, how can they count? They don't even think about it, you and Xiang Lan are still studying, if your mother doesn't want to make some money, then your future What about tuition fees, living expenses, and miscellaneous expenses?"

Xiang Jin nodded, "Yes, isn't that what it is?"

Yan Chen gave Xiang Jin a funny look, because others don't know about her ability to fool people, but he knows, even if her mother really doesn't want to make a living and open that shop, it's impossible for her family to drink Northwest wind talking?
As far as she sees that Tiandu has at least thousands of yuan in royalties, tens of thousands a month, not to mention other sudden foreign income.

Even if her family doesn't have any livelihood, she can support the three of their mothers.

The reason why she asked her mother to open that shop was also to cover her income.

After all, she is a person who knows how to enjoy. If her mother doesn't have a job and can't make money, how can she eat in the school cafeteria?Others will wonder where her money comes from.

But her mother has a business and earns money, so this explanation is easy to explain, it was given by her mother, and then her mother didn't want her to eat the steamed rice, so she asked her to cook in the cafeteria .

Of course, she asked her mother to open this shop not just to cover her, but to let her mother have a job to make a living and be self-reliant.

Zeng Qing said, "Well, next time I go back and hear someone say something else, I'll tell them so."

"Well, thanks!"

"You're welcome, we are friends!"
