Chapter 16

After seeing off Li Shanyun, Ah Jiu went to the backyard to say hello to Grandma Li and the others, and went to school with her schoolbag. It wasn't until Ah Jiu went out that Grandma Li sighed slightly, her face paled.

"Ah Jiu is a good child, but her family..." Grandma Li shook her head, with an expression of not mentioning it.Although Ah Jiu didn't say anything, but seeing the slightly unnatural expression, she also knew that nothing good happened to her sister's visit.

Grandpa Li rubbed the crutch in his hand: "Heaven will send a great mission to the people, you must first work hard on your heart and muscles, encounters and sufferings coexist, Ajiu is transparent, she will figure it out, just leave it alone. "

Fortunately, Grandpa Zhao went out to run errands after lunch, otherwise this passage would not have ended so easily.

Ah Jiu is not a high-profile person, she is humble and polite to everyone at school, the teacher likes her good grades, some students are jealous and dislike her at first, but Ah Jiu never takes it to heart.Fortunately, her tablemate is a cheerful girl. Some of the classmates around her have been in contact with each other for a long time, and gradually they really like Ah Jiu.

Ah Jiu has good grades and is liked by the teacher, but she is not arrogant and looks down on others because of this. If a classmate asks her for a problem, she will solve the problem with all her heart.If things go on like this, Ah Jiu's popularity in the class has become good, but there are always a few extreme-minded people in the crowd, so they hate Ah Jiu.

In Ah Jiu's heart, high school is just her springboard. Maybe she can make some friends, but after going through college, there are not many people who can become lifelong friends. Things are totally invisible.

A month flies by, the school is on winter vacation, Ah Jiu also plans to go home, everything she needs to go to school now has been arranged by Grandma Li and Aunt Zhang, so she has been spending nothing since she went to school .

She has not touched the money given by the eldest sister, and the family's salary is also accounted for, but it is not an option to continue in the long run. She should think of a side job.The vegetables in the space will be secretly taken out by her occasionally when buying vegetables. If you go to the market to buy this, it can be said that it is a cost-free transaction. You only earn but not lose, but she has no time.

She has to go to school, and usually has to learn from the master. Even if she has a rest time, she is not fixed. She has to find a partner.Grandma Li and the others definitely won't let her come out to do business, but she doesn't know too many people, third sister?No, no one in the family can do it, and you can’t let the family know about the business, otherwise there will be endless troubles.

Ah Jiu was waiting at the ferry with big bags and small bags, thinking about what to do next, especially how to have a fixed source of income.

"Ah Jiu?"

Ah Jiu heard the low shout, turned around and saw that it was Yang Jingtian, and said with a smile, "Just got off work?"

Yang Jingtian nodded slightly, glanced at Ah Jiu and left immediately.Seeing her, he couldn't restrain his happiness. Originally, he wanted to follow her silently, but he didn't know why he opened his mouth out of nowhere.

"Why are you standing so far away?" Ah Jiu asked knowingly.

Sure enough, Yang Jingtian's face changed slightly, he lowered his head and said nothing, but his footsteps leaned towards Ah Jiu.

Ah Jiu suddenly took out two packages of dry goods from his cloth bag and stuffed them to Yang Jingtian, and said, "Take it, don't refuse."

Yang Jingtian paused, and put away his things. He was afraid of being seen and wanted to pack them up, but he felt that the bag in which he put the tools was too dirty, so he hesitated for a while, but thinking that there would be many people on the boat later, he still gave it to him. Stuffed it in the bag.

Since that dinner at Li's house, Ah Jiu also ran into Yang Jingtian a few times during his breaks. Although the contact time was not long, Ah Jiu still got to know Yang Jingtian more or less.Very sensitive, but a good person, with a stubborn side, but he will compromise with her every time, he is a very contradictory person.I don't know why, every time Ah Jiu gets along with Yang Jingtian, he feels pretty good.

Seeing Yang Jingtian, Ah Jiu suddenly thought of his plan to make money: "Brother Yang, do you do woodwork every day?"

Glancing around, he found that there were not many people, but Yang Jingtian still said cautiously: "They are all acquaintances and customers, so I can't tell."

Ah Jiu nodded: "Brother Yang, are you free the day after tomorrow?"

Suddenly, Yang Jingtian's heart skipped a beat, almost popping out of his throat: "Yes."

"Then can you go to the Chinese Medicine Hall to find me? I have something I want to discuss with you." At this time, the boat had already sailed from the opposite bank, and the people on the shore were packing their things and preparing to board the boat, and Yang Jingtian met quickly He said 'um', and heard Ah Jiu reply, 'Then we'll talk about it later. ’ He slowly followed Ah Jiu into the boat.

Seeing that Ah Jiu was carrying so many things, Yang Jingtian wanted to step forward to help, but he looked around at the people who were avoiding him, and he lowered his head slightly.

Ah Jiu wanted to talk to Yang Jingtian several times on the boat. She didn't mind the rumors about him as a "broom star", but every time his eyes met Yang Jingtian, he quickly lowered his head with a bad expression. She opened her mouth, Didn't say anything.Forget it, the days to come are still long!
On the boat, a few aunts still recognized Ah Jiu and wanted to have a few words with Ah Jiu, but they didn't pay attention to him, and they were embarrassed to go up, but they just stood there and started discussing in low voices.

Ah Jiu went home directly after getting off the boat. She had too many things, and she didn't have the heart to talk to Yang Jingtian. Anyway, she will meet the day after tomorrow. If the cooperation is successful, she will have more time to meet in the future.And she knew without turning her head that Yang Jingtian had been following her.

When they got home, only the third sister was at home. Li Shanyun was very happy to see Xiao Si coming back: "Little Si, ah, why are you carrying so many things? I'll help you." The mouth was surprised: "Where did all this come from? Did you buy these things with all your salary? No, your salary is not enough to buy these things."

"You damn girl, what did you buy, and you bought all your wages!" Before Ah Jiu could reply in a hurry, Li Ma rushed in from the gate in a hurry, grabbed the things in Li Shanyun's hand, After looking at the things in the cloth bag, my heart trembled, and I pointed at Ah Jiu's nose and cursed: "Damn girl, it's a waste of my mother raising you for so many years, and buying things blindly after earning money, these are things you can eat I really thought I was my daughter, you should return all these things quickly, do you hear me!"

Ah Jiu rolled her eyes impatiently, and explained indifferently: "There are still 20 days to celebrate the New Year. This is a new year's gift, not mine." After finishing speaking, Ah Jiu didn't care what Mama Li said, and went directly Go to your own room.

Pushing open the door, she was stunned, turned around and looked at Mama Li expressionlessly: "Why did my room become like this!" There was no bedding on the bed, and there was garbage all over the floor. All the groceries in the room are piled up in the house. Didn’t the groceries used to be piled up in the backyard?She hasn't been here for a month, and her room has become a utility room!

Li Shanyun also realized that Xiao Si was scolded by her mother because of her slip of the tongue, and hurriedly said: "There is not enough space at home..."

Before the words were finished, she was cut off by Li's mother: "You are not at home often, and the room is empty, so why not put some groceries!"

"Then where do I sleep now?" Ah Jiu suppressed her anger and kept telling herself, don't be as knowledgeable as her, don't be as knowledgeable as her...

"I'll let you and Shanyun collect the things on the bed later, and just spread out the mattress." Knowing that the fish and dried goods are the New Year's goods issued by the Chinese Medicine Hall, Li's eyes began to shine, and she hugged a bunch of things , I still didn’t forget to say to Ah Jiu: “Don’t think that you don’t have to hand over your salary when you come back with so many things. After you finish sorting out, just bring the salary. Don’t force me to use extraordinary means.”

Ah Jiu ignored her and went straight into the room, smelling the strange smell in the room, she felt sad but also thankful.Li Chujiu, you still persist for three years. After three years, you will be completely liberated!
After Mama Li entered the room with the pile of things in her arms, Li Shanyun felt that she followed Xiaosi and helped her tidy up, but she did not forget to apologize: "Ah Jiu, I'm sorry, I was reckless just now and caused you to be scolded by Mama. .”

"It's okay, it's none of your business." Mama Li never liked her, no matter how many good things she gave her, she never had a good face.In fact, Li Chujiu didn't seem to bring so many things back this time, but Grandma Li and Aunt Zhang insisted on asking her to take them. How could she not understand what they were thinking? With a good face, she couldn't bear to dampen the enthusiasm of Grandma Li and Aunt Zhang at that time.

"How many days can you stay at home?" Li Shanyun quickly packed up, picked up all the sundries on the bed and put them aside, then took a clean rag and began to wipe the bed board.

Ah Jiu slowly swept the things around the bed aside, and said lightly, "I'll go back tomorrow."

"Then the next time you come back will be Chinese New Year?"

"kindness."

Seeing Ah Jiu’s reluctance to talk too much, Li Shanyun felt that Mom was too much just now and hurt her, so she couldn’t help comforting her: “Mom is like that, don’t take her words to heart, by the way, eldest sister is going on a blind date, and life is coming soon It's settled."

"Are parents satisfied? Where is the partner?" Ah Jiu didn't dare to be surprised by the eldest sister's engagement. Originally, the eldest sister's age was placed there, and the married girls in rural areas are all young. If they don't marry, it will be difficult. got married.

Li Shanyun's face did not show the joy of the eldest sister's upcoming marriage, but a little worry: "He is from Xiejia Village next door. The eldest son of the family works in the city. There is a younger brother and younger sister. His parents are farmers. Dad is very concerned about this. I didn't say anything about the marriage, Mom... She thinks the other party's family is too poor, and she's afraid that the gift money will be something..."

Ah Jiu is the one yuan of the family, and Li Shanyun feels that she has the obligation to tell her about some things in the family, whether she is at home or not, but there are some things that she is not easy to talk about.Ah Jiu naturally understood this, but she wasn't worried about Eldest Sister at all. Just because Eldest Sister could lend her money, she knew that she had her own ideas. If she wanted to marry, Mom couldn't stop her at all.
