Chapter 70 Sister's Plan
In the city, in the alley next to Shengli Primary School, there was a small shop at the end. At this time, it was deserted and no one was there, only the big alarm clock on the wall was ticking.
Mei Yuxuan sat behind the counter, bored. Her hair has been permed and she is wearing a blue dress. She is more clean and fashionable than when she was at home, but she still has acne on her face.
The school hadn't ended yet, there was no business, she wanted to sleep but couldn't sleep, and couldn't sleep, so she had to pick up the story meeting that was on the counter and turned the pages, flipped a few pages, and threw it on the stage, I've watched it several times before and after.
She didn't know that among the previous little jokes, the author of one was signed "Deep Sea", and that was his younger brother.
I don't blame her. By next month, she has been out for three years, but hasn't come home for three years. When she first came out, she wrote two letters and only made a few phone calls afterward. Of course, she didn't know the situation at home.
I thought that the family must still be in difficulty, not to mention that the old debts have not been repaid, the younger brother is going to junior high school, and the family will definitely have to take on new debts.
I never thought that after the new year, I would go to the quilt factory in the suburbs where I used to work to see my sisters in the school. I heard from them that my parents went to the provincial capital in the second half of last year.
She was stunned for a long time when she heard it, but she didn't expect her parents to have this ability! At the same time, she also felt much more relaxed. Those guilt and self-blame that occasionally surfaced in her heart in the dead of night, which would make her feel uncomfortable, disappeared.
In the past two years, she didn't help the family, and the family lived well, that's fine.
When working in a clothing factory, if she chooses to work more overtime, she can earn more than 100 yuan a month, saving a little money. In a year, she can help her family with 400 to 500 yuan.
But she had too many things to buy. When she came out, her parents borrowed some money. In addition to her travel expenses, they also bought her a set of summer clothes and a pair of sandals in the town. In addition, even the quilt was mended. of.
The clothes bought in the town, when they arrived in the city, looked so rustic, so she received the first month's salary, she carried the money herself, went to a few stores, and then the money ran out.
Next month, there will be new styles in fashion. She has worked hard for a month, but she still can't buy one. Besides, she also has to buy facial cleanser, various creams, lipsticks, etc.... Can't save money.
Sometimes, when I buy clothes in the store, I don’t think about it. If these tens of dollars are sent home, at least my parents will be able to have more hands this month, but when I see that dress, the girl outside is wearing it. It's also this one, it's so pretty... I'd better wait until next month to send money to my family.
She has worked in a clothing factory for more than a year, and she has no savings, only a large box of clothes, some of which she can no longer like, and there are many bottles and jars of cosmetics.
She worked in the factory for more than ten hours a day, and she felt that she could not endure it any longer. At this moment, when she was visiting the store on vacation, she met a girl trying on clothes, and she helped the girl with some advice.
After they came out and talked, it turned out that the girl's home was near their clothing factory. They went shopping together that day, and found that they could talk very well. After knowing their names, the girl's name also had the character "Jade", called Zhou Yufang.
One day soon after get off work, Zhou Yufang waited for her at the gate of the factory and invited her to be a guest at home. Zhou Yufang's parents are divorced, and there is a younger sister and a younger brother below. The younger brother lived with his father. The three of them are now living in a new two-story building in their hometown.
When Feng Yuxuan entered her house for the first time, her eyes widened immediately. Those people in the village and town couldn't compare with the Zhou family. Zhou's mother is very kind. Feng Yuxuan has some skills in interpersonal communication. After a few times, she is very popular with Zhou's mother. Later, she simply recognized her godmother and became a god sister with Zhou Yufang.
And then a lot of times, the Zhou family, the dilapidated and poor family in the countryside, was left behind most of the time.
Hearing that she didn't want to work in the clothing factory anymore, Zhou Yufang found a way to find her a job as a shopkeeper in the city. Although the salary was similar, it was much more relaxed and free than working in the factory.
But this is her own time, and Feng Yuxuan spends more money. Because Zhou Yufang and the others are the people she usually associates with, Feng Yuxuan pays more attention to her clothes, so she is still the same as before.
With no money in hand, she was too embarrassed to go home to see her parents, so she dragged it off year after year.
As soon as the bell rang, the next elementary school ended, and the children swarmed out to the store in twos and threes to buy food and drink. Crowded in front of the counter. They were all small businesses with a few cents, but with so many people, Feng Yuxuan was very busy at the moment.
After she was busy for a while, a girl walked in outside with short hair, wearing a big red T-shirt on top and jeans on the bottom. She looked neat and clean. This was Zhou Yufang.
Seeing that Feng Yuxuan was overwhelmed, she walked over to the counter to help.
Nearly ten minutes later, Feng Yuxuan pointed to the alarm clock on the wall to remind the children who were still waiting behind, and said that there were a few others who were still waiting and hurried to the school. Following that, the bell rang.
Finally got over this wave! Both let out a sigh of relief. Feng Yuxuan began to keep accounts, and Zhou Yufang helped her sort out the zero tickets.
At the last point, in less than ten minutes, nearly thirty dollars were sold.
Zhou Yufang said, "It's not bad, I can buy a lot in this day, and don't look at these odds and ends, but the profit is good! How about, find a place with a good location and open one?"
Feng Yuxuan put the account book in the drawer and gave her an angry look, "I know this better than you! Open a store, you say it easily, even if I find a good store, where will I get the money to open a store? You lend me!"
Zhou Yufang smiled and said, "It's not like you don't know my situation, a small amount of money is okay, and the money to open a store, I really can't help you a lot, but let's take this as a goal, it's impossible, you always help people like this Look at the store."
Feng Yuxuan thought the same way, just to open a store, it would cost at least tens of thousands of dollars. For such a large amount, she had no way to do it before, but now, there is a possibility.
In a few months, my parents will definitely go home to collect chestnuts. It seems that during the Mid-Autumn Festival, they must go home.
…………
There were few people in the morning. Mei Qiuping took Feng Yiping and took two seats on the minibus. After nine o'clock, they arrived in the county. , Before getting into the car, Mei Qiuping bought three steamed buns and two oil cakes. This was lunch. She also weighed jins of oranges. The oranges were eaten by Feng Yiping. The key is that the orange peel can come in handy.
Mei Qiuping suffered from motion sickness, and spending money to buy motion sickness medicines didn't help. Then, she heard people say that when she felt sick and wanted to vomit, putting orange peel in front of her nose and smelling it would work. She tried it once, and it was still effective.
The bus to the provincial capital at 10:30 is cheaper, but it is an old-fashioned bus with wooden chairs. This kind of bus will disappear soon. But Feng Yiping actually likes this kind of car a bit better than some soft seats.
In those cars, many of the seats were broken, the sponge inside was exposed, and the leather on the seat was dirty. As soon as you got in the car, there was a strong smell, and it was not as refreshing as this kind of car.
And at this time, his respectable buttocks were not used to sitting on the sofa, so he could endure the bumps of the hardwood chair all the way.
Mei Qiuping peeled an orange, and the mother and son shared it. She introduced Feng Yiping about the buildings and places she had seen along the way. Of course, she didn't know. Feng Yiping was more familiar with these than she was.
There is no high-speed road to the provincial capital, and the road is still on the provincial road, and the speed is not fast, but such an old bus is still bumpy on a seemingly flat road. After walking for a long time, Mei Qiuping felt a little uncomfortable, she opened the car window to the maximum, and while the wind was blowing, she put the orange peel in front of her nose, "I didn't expect that the first time you took a car, you didn't even know it at all. motion sickness."
Feng Yiping is okay now, he told Mei Qiuping not to lean on the back of the chair, it would be better that way, Mei Qiuping tried it, it seemed really better.
She said to Feng Yiping, "It's better, people who won't be upset again will be flustered and uncomfortable."
After she left the county and stopped walking and stopping, Mei Qiuping felt better, smiled and said to Feng Yiping, "When I was a child, I took a few uncles and ran behind the car on the highway. The gasoline smells so good, now I feel like throwing up when I smell it."
Feng Yiping also had a similar experience. When he graduated from secondary school and went to work in the south, the school hired a car to send him and ten other classmates there. On the way, ten classmates vomited nine and went to the gas station to refuel. At that time, the last classmate also vomited, and finally the old master who had been driving for many years said that he also wanted to vomit.
After driving for more than three hours, the bus passed by the city transit highway. Mei Qiuping and Feng Yiping shared the steamed buns and ate them. As for the two oil cakes, she didn't touch a single bite. She said that the smell of oil made her uncomfortable. Feng Yiping knew it. This is an excuse.
Mei Qiuping took a few mouthfuls of steamed buns, drank the cold boiled water from the can, looked at the city outside the window, and said to Feng Yiping, "Your sister is here now, right in the city."
After driving for more than an hour, the Yangtze River, which is as yellow as the Yellow River, was on the side. Feng Yiping leaned on the window to look at it. This was the first time he saw the Yangtze River after his rebirth, and he was a little excited.
In fact, in addition to being a little vast, the Yangtze River is very turbid, and the river water also has a strong fishy smell.
The bus traveled along the river, and after more than two hours, it was too far to go down the mountain. This was also the most beautiful moment on the river. At this moment, I finally saw a Yangtze River Bridge, as well as the tall buildings on the other side of the bridge and the power plant by the river. The tall chimney, the provincial capital, has finally arrived! (A good event to drop pie in the sky, the cool mobile phone is waiting for you!
