Return to the small mountain village in 1986

After Wang Xiuxiu moved away from the clothing store, her life became much calmer than before.

With someone looking after the store, Gao Mingcheng doesn't have to stay in the store all the time and starts busying himself.

After returning from the capital, he had a lot of things to do. For Maozi's house, he only had to pay and check the accounts. After the house was built, he could apply for the real estate certificate.

As for finding a carpenter to make a billiard table and buying billiard balls, there is no rush. It will not be too late to wait until the beams and tiles are put on the house.

He doesn't need to take care of the house here, but he has to take care of the house over there in the kindergarten.

The kindergarten is a main building, plus a row of auxiliary buildings and a wide courtyard.

The house was started and completed last year, and the hard decoration has been carried out, but the soft decoration has not been completely completed. In addition, the courtyard will be turned into a playground, but currently there are only cement slides and swings built with steel frames.

As for toys such as rocking horses and seesaws, we have not yet purchased all the toys.

In addition to toys and teaching aids, suitable plants need to be planted in small flower beds as decorations.

As for the small wooden bed for the children to sleep on, it was customized by a carpenter before. It was made of pine wood and was not painted. After it was made, the small wooden bed only smelled of pine itself. After leaving it for a period of time, even the wood smell was almost gone. .

With a small wooden bed, you also need corresponding small mats, small pillows and quilts, all of which need to be purchased.

As for small pillows and quilts, this is easy to do. Just leave the order to Gao Shouwang's workshop.

Gao Mingcheng was almost busy with these things after running around for two days.

On Saturday afternoon, Huang Dazhi came to the door and said that Gao Guobing had heard the news and asked him to come over.

Gao Mingcheng put down what he was doing and walked to the police station with Huang Dazhi.

Along the way, the two chatted casually.

While Gao Mingcheng was busy with kindergarten chores, Huang Dazhi was also busy with his new house.

The land for the kindergarten and the land for Huang Dazhi's new house were purchased almost at the same time. The two of them built the house on the same foot. Last year, Huang Dazhi's new house had been built, and Huang Dazhi also wanted to move to the new house before the Chinese New Year. I went to live in the house there.

It was Gao Mingcheng who persuaded Huang Dazhi.

After the new house is built, it needs to be aired and odors dispersed, so there is no need to rush to live in it.

Now that Luo Li has given birth and is about to finish her confinement, Huang Dazhi is ready to complete the new house and then choose a date to move there.

Huang Dazhi said with a smile: "Mingcheng, after we move, I plan to host a few tables of wine at home. The housewarming and the baby's full moon will be organized together. Then you will all come to my house for dinner!"

"Okay. When is the date set?" Gao Mingcheng asked with a smile.

Huang Dazhi said: "It is scheduled to be on the 20th of this month. It's a good day. It's a weekend off, so it's convenient for everyone to come and have a drink."

Today is already the 5th, so there are still fifteen days until the reception.

Gao Mingcheng asked: "Is the house ready?"

Huang Dazhi nodded and said: "It's almost done. It's just that I didn't buy electrical appliances such as color TVs, washing machines, and refrigerators. These things are too expensive. I don't have enough money on hand, so I plan to wait and buy them again."

Although people today are keen on buying electrical appliances, there are still not many people who can afford them. Many people want to buy an electrical appliance, which can only be bought if the whole family is tight on food and clothing.

But Huang Dazhi didn't want to spend all his money to buy these things, so when he only had a little money left in his hand, he didn't want to move anymore.

He had been poor and knew the importance of money.

Huang Dazhi added: "Before the banquet, I have to take a few days off. I plan to take Xiaoguai to the hospital in the provincial capital for surgery."

Since adopting Xiaoguai, Huang Dazhi has inquired about cleft lip and palate in many ways. Now that Xiaoguai is over three years old, hospitals in the provincial capital can also perform this surgery, so he plans to take Xiaoguai for surgery.

The people in the village are simple and kind-hearted, but at the same time they can flatter others and put down others, especially the children who are not familiar with the world, and sometimes they can use harsh words to hurt others.

The adults can barely speak harshly to the little boy, but the naughty children will call him a monster.

When he was young, Xiaoguai was immune to any influence, but as he grew older, Xiaoguai would inevitably feel inferior.

Huang Dazhi guarded the money in his hand and did not dare to spend it randomly, also to pay for Xiaoguai's surgery.

After Gao Mingcheng learned about this, he asked a few more questions and asked Huang Dazhi how they were going to get to the provincial capital.

Huang Dazhi said: "Take the train."

There are few long-distance buses now, the tickets are not cheap, and there is a smell of gasoline on the bus. Huang Dazhi is worried that Xiaoguai will get carsick, so he decides to take the train there.

Gao Mingcheng asked again if the money for the operation was enough. If not, he could pay part of it.

This surgery is related to Xiaoguai's future life, and Gao Mingcheng, who is not short of money, is very willing to help.

But Huang Dazhi did not ask for his money, but said confidently: "That's enough. I asked the doctor and he has already saved the money in advance."

Since Huang Dazhi said this, Gao Mingcheng did not insist on giving it, but promised that when his kindergarten starts, Xiaoguai can study for free.

When mentioning this, Huang Dazhi smiled and said: "Yes, after Xiaoguai recovers from the operation, I plan to bring her to live in the county. By then, my parents and Xiao An can live together. .”

These days, if the house is big enough, the whole family will live together. Huang Dazhi's house was too small before, but the house he built now has three floors!

Moreover, after his parents and brother came to live with him, they could also help him take care of the children. After Luo Li was born, she could go to work in Gao Mingcheng's clothing store.

Building a house is almost draining their money, so naturally they have to work quickly to make money.

Gao Mingcheng nodded in agreement.

Huang Dazhi's parents and younger brother were both in poor health, and it was quite difficult to do farm work. He might as well live in the county and start some small business.

Huang Xiaoan's legs and feet are inconvenient, but he can still see what's being sold in the store.

As for what to sell, it depends on their own wishes. In Gao Mingcheng's opinion, there is still great potential for setting up stalls and doing food business, but it requires skills.

During the Chinese New Year this year, he had a chat with his third sister, Duo Yue, and found out that Duo Yue had already made a lot of money by setting up a stall.

This money may not make her rich, but at least her income is stable and her living standard is gradually improving.

Walking and chatting all the way, we soon arrived at the police station.

After separating from Huang Dazhi, Gao Mingcheng went to Gao Guobing's office.

Gao Guobing was reading documents in the office. When he saw Gao Mingcheng coming, he immediately put the documents down and asked Gao Mingcheng to sit down.

Gao Mingcheng took a few steps forward and sat down on the chair in front of his desk.

On the desk, there was a pile of documents, tea cups, and several packs of cigarettes. Gao Mingcheng's eyes stayed on those packs of cigarettes for a few seconds. These cigarettes were not the brands that Gao Guobing often smoked. They should be cigarettes given by others.

Gao Guobing seemed to be thirsty, so he picked up the tea cup, took a sip of tea, and asked someone to make Gao Mingcheng a cup of tea as well.

Not long after, tea was delivered.

Gao Mingcheng politely thanked him, and after the person who delivered the tea left, Gao Guobing said: "I've asked someone about that factory, and they said it didn't have any backstage. The previous boss had some connections, so he got the certificate." It’s down, but that relationship doesn’t mean anything.”

Gao Guobing's tone was very calm, with a kind of contempt that he didn't take the little minions seriously.

He continued: "During the Chinese New Year, the previous boss lost a lot of money gambling and lost the factory as well. The person running the business now is the brother of the banker who opened the casino. He has no ability and likes Taking advantage of the loophole, a while ago, he bought a batch of low-quality steel bars at a low price from someone unknown and used them to make prefabricated panels."

"I've already said hello to the industrial and commercial department, and they also went to investigate. This morning, they sealed the factory. As for that man's brother, I also have people watching. Once I find out that he runs a casino, I will immediately Just arrest them!”

When Gao Mingcheng heard this, he felt relieved.

It doesn't matter to the other party, this is the best!
Gao Mingcheng smiled and thanked him: "Uncle, please make a trip."

Gao Guobing waved his hand, indicating that this matter was nothing. It is related to the safety of housing construction for the people in his hometown, and Gao Guobing is willing to contribute.

If he didn't know, forget it. Now that he knew, even if the other party had a back-up, he would still have to touch it. At worst, it would make the matter bigger.

But the other party had no backing, and Gao Guobing didn't have to make enemies with others.

Gao Guobing continued: "Those two brothers are not good people. The elder brother runs a casino, and the younger brother engages in fraud and has a group of thugs around him. Although the factory has been closed down, they may not take revenge."

Gao Guobing glanced at Gao Mingcheng and was very confident in his skills, so he said: "If you are afraid that they will retaliate against your elder brother, you can also take a preemptive strike and take the initiative to teach them a lesson."

Then, Gao Guobing told Gao Mingcheng the brother's address.

Gao Mingcheng remembered the address and nodded.

Only a thousand days can make a thief, but there is no one who can guard against a thief for a thousand days. Since we have made enemies, we should beat the other party until he dares not retaliate!

Gao Mingcheng nodded and said, "I know what to do. I just have to go back to the village tomorrow."

Hearing Gao Mingcheng talk about returning to the village tomorrow, Gao Guobing suddenly laughed and said, "It's the weekend holiday tomorrow. Are you planning to go to your house to meet your parents?"

Gao Mingcheng nodded, Lou Xinyu indeed planned this.

Regardless of whether he succeeds or not, since he is now in a relationship with Gao Shufang, he should tell Gao Yuan and Luo Xiaohua.

Gao Guobing smiled and said: "It's okay to let your parents meet him. Although Xiao Lou is a bit self-motivated, he still does things safely."

Regarding this point, Gao Mingcheng was noncommittal, saying that people's hearts are revealed over time. He didn't know Lou Xinyu in his previous life, and he planned to observe it slowly in this life.

After chatting with Gao Guobing for a while, it was soon time to get off work.

After get off work, Gao Guobing made an appointment to meet a friend, so the two separated at the door.

However, Lou Xinyu immediately followed, preparing to go to the clothing store with Gao Mingcheng.

Lou Xinyu works in the police station and has a close relationship with Gao Guobing. Naturally, he knows what Gao Guobing has been doing recently, so he eagerly said: "Second brother, are you going to teach those people a lesson tomorrow?"

Gao Mingcheng glanced at him and guessed that he might also want to go.

Lou Xinyu was born in the military, and his skills must have been fine, but his left hand was injured. After recovering, although it did not affect his life, he couldn't fight, right?

A trace of doubt emerged in Gao Mingcheng's heart.

It was precisely because Lou Xinyu was injured, otherwise Gao Mingcheng would have competed with Lou Xinyu long ago.

"Well, do you want to go too?" Gao Mingcheng asked.

Lou Xinyu nodded immediately and said, "Well, I'll go too!"

Gao Mingcheng looked at him again and nodded in agreement.

Okay, you can go if you want to, let him see the value of his force, so that he can weigh it when getting along with Shufang.

With this idea in mind, Gao Mingcheng's face was so calm that nothing could be seen.

The next day was the weekend, and it was also the day Lou Xinyu longed to visit his future father-in-law and mother-in-law's house.

Well, by the way, I can help my brother-in-law vent his anger!
Early in the morning, Lou Xinyu came to the clothing store early carrying six gifts.

Gao Shufang also dressed up specially today. She wore a goose-yellow dress, a thin jacket, a pearl necklace and turquoise bracelets.

When she saw Lou Xinyu carrying so many gifts, she couldn't help but be a little stunned and asked, "What are you carrying?"

Lou Xinyu said: "I asked my colleagues about it, and most of them gave away tobacco, alcohol and snacks, so I bought some. Oh, early this morning, I also bought ten pounds of meat!"

When he came over, both hands were full. Heavier items were carried with his good hand, and items weighing more than ten kilograms were carried steadily. Lighter items were carried with the injured hand. From a distance, , no one can tell that he has been injured.

Gao Shufang said speechlessly: "Ten pounds of meat? Why did you buy so much? Just buy two pounds!"

Lou Xinyu said: "There are many people eating at home, plus we are in the kiln, so we must eat more meat."

Gao Shufang couldn't resist him and bought everything, so she had no choice but to take it with her.

Gao Mingcheng saw the two of them talking together in a natural state, so he knew that their relationship should be good.

He held Xiao Xuxu in his arms, gave Xiao Xuxu a kiss on the face, and then returned the child to the child.

"Duomei, you really don't want me to take little Xuxu away? You have to look after the store and take care of the children. Why don't you come here if you are busy?"

Duo Mei glanced at him helplessly, thinking she didn't know what he was going to do today?
Little Xuxu is only over a year old, can he be taken to fight?
Besides, Gao Mingcheng planned to go into the mountains today and asked him to take Xiao Xuxu back, which would be left to others.

Rather than bringing it to others, many beauties would rather be brought to themselves.

She hugged Xiao Xuxu and said, "Don't worry about us. If you are too busy, just go to the restaurant outside to buy food."

Gao Mingli on the side also said: "Second brother, don't worry, although I can't sell goods, I can still help find goods and take care of the children!"

Today is the weekend, and Gao Mingli doesn't have to go to work. He doesn't want to go back to the village to work, and would rather stay in the store and look after the store.

Hearing Gao Mingli's words, Gao Mingcheng felt relieved.

"Okay, let's go first." Gao Mingcheng said goodbye to them, and then prepared to take Gao Shufang and Lou Xinyu back to the village. (End of chapter)
