 Chapter 167 Big troubles can’t be caused, but small troubles keep happening

When we left the Meiying Studio, the sky was getting dark.

Jiang Shan looked up at the sky and saw a few big words flashing in the gray-blue clouds: I can't hold it in any longer.

"Grandma's," Jiang Shan cursed, forgot to take his umbrella, and started running towards the bus stop.

In fact, it’s not that Jiang Shan is forgetful. The main reason is that there are only two umbrellas at home, and they are both long.

Therefore, as long as it didn't rain when he went out, he didn't bother to carry it.

The heavy rain was quite bearable, and it wasn't until the moment Jiang Shan squeezed off the bus three stops later that it started to rain down.

"Grandma's," he muttered again, secretly sighing at Comrade Jiangshan's ill-fated fate, and started running.

"Second brother,"

In Pujiang Department Store, the closer you get to the clock counter, the bigger the silhouette of Jiang He becomes.

"Is the matter done?" Jiang He looked back at Lao San who hurried over.

For a moment, Jiang Shan could only focus on his watch: "It's not a big deal, so I just went over and did a small experiment."

Such a bizarre event as going to the Meiying Studio to do an experiment fell on Jiang He's ears, and everything turned out to be normal: "Success?"

"What?"

"Experiment."

"very successful."

"That's good," Jiang He pointed at a women's watch on the glass counter and said, "I want to buy this watch for Xiao Xiao."

Following the direction of the second brother's finger, Jiang Shanyi walked and looked over.

He really didn't expect that the watch styles of this era could actually dazzle him.

All steel, semi-steel, with diamonds, without diamonds, black dial, white dial...

Even the color and width of the wristband can make you confused for a long time.

Now the second child points to this women's watch, which is indeed small and exquisite.

Oval white dial, dark red calfskin strap, Jiang Shan looked at the price tag next to the watch: 228 yuan.

"Hey, you had already thought about it before I came here?"

"Well, I'm even optimistic about both of us."

After saying that, Jiang He pointed to the two diamond watches next to him: "All steel ones, both cost around 150."

"Okay," Jiang Shan didn't care about this at all: "I'll pick two more pieces for my parents and we can buy them together."

"Are the coupons enough?"

"Don't worry," Jiang Shan took out an envelope from his pocket and handed it to his second brother: "Director Hu of the translation factory gave it to me a while ago."

"So much?" Jiang He opened it and took a look, relieved a lot: "Would you like to buy a piece for the knife handle?"

Jiang Shan was categorical: "What kind of watch is this little girl wearing? It's been very uneasy outside recently."

"Okay, I'll listen to you."

So, under the attention of the two salesmen, the two Jiang brothers bought three men's watches and two women's watches as quickly as possible.

"Here," Jiang Shan officially handed over the watch: "Happy wedding!"

Jiang He glanced at the bag in his hand and couldn't help but smile: "Thanks."

Today, the gift that the third child gave me was not cheap.

Jiang He has always wanted a watch of his own a long time ago.

In this era, wearing a watch is not only for convenience, but also a yearning for material civilization among young people.

"We are all brothers, what's there to thank you for?" Seeing his second brother rarely smile for such a long time, Jiang Shan also became happy:

"What are you going to do right now? Go buy a sewing machine? But why did I hear that Sister Xiaoxiao doesn't know how to step on that thing?"

"Whether she steps on it or not, I have to buy it,"

"Okay, let's go take a look."

The popularity of weddings is changing rapidly these days.

But Lu Xiao had already used the bicycle and the radio. If he didn't prepare the other two items, Jiang He would be unable to pass his level.

In fact, neither Comrade Lu Xiao nor her family made any demands to Jiang He from the time the relationship was confirmed and the Civil Affairs Bureau obtained the certificate.

But the more this happened, the more Jiang He wanted to arrange everything for Lu Xiao.

The two big red suitcases at home have been filled to the brim for him.

The two brothers were strolling through the mall and stopped at the same time when they passed the electric fan counter.

Currently, there is only one floor-standing electric fan at home, and it has to be moved to the girls' dormitory next door from time to time.

The brothers have long been thinking about buying another one, but each time they were put off by the huge crowds of people.

"Oh my god," Jiang Shan pulled his neck and glanced at the back of the team: "The tail of this team can't even be seen."

"The tail is in the corridor." Jiang He felt deeply: "That's where I started lining up that day."

The key point is that many times before the queue is even halfway through, the salesperson will inform you that it is out of stock.

In the midsummer season, the most in-demand product is electric fans.

"Is there a queue at the sewing machine?"

"No, I've already seen it."

After struggling for a while, the two brothers from the Jiang family finally loaded a heavy cardboard box onto a tricycle.

Following the old rules, Jiang Shan still sits firmly in the carriage.

"Second brother," after lighting a cigarette, Jiang Shan looked at the objects piled on the tricycle: "You have spent a lot of money recently, haven't you?"

"It's okay, it's all money that should be spent," Jiang He glared at Miwa and took a cigarette lit by the third child: "Besides, you can still pay for the most expensive watch."

"Brother," Jiang Shan asked directly: "Have you ever thought about going to work in a regular unit?"

He seemed to have heard his second brother say before that he only wanted to be free to stay at home and make money.

But now that the opportunity is right in front of him, the first thing Jiang Shan thinks of is his second brother.

"Where are you going?" Jiang He asked casually, "Where are you going? I'm not at home."

"What about a unit like the American Film Studio?"

"Meiying Factory?" Jiang He paused for a moment, and after more than ten seconds said, "Let's forget it. I'm used to it. Besides, I also want to help you and the boss."

"Okay, I'll listen to you first," Jiang Shan didn't want to force his second brother: "Anyway, you can tell me when you want to go."

"Look at your tone," Jiang He smiled and blew out a puff of smoke: "You sound like you run your own factory."

"In a few days, it won't be difficult to open a factory," Jiang Shan shook his legs and said with a smile, "Just wait and see."

"Okay, I will definitely help you then."

On the main road of Pujiang City, two brothers on a tricycle were chatting about their plans.

The deeper the conversation, the happier the laughter becomes.

As dusk approached, the sky actually cleared up completely.

Jiangchuan and Ying Ruhua laughed and walked on the sidewalk.

The rays of light that turned the sky red splashed on the little girls' bodies, adding a touch of soft silken light to their snow-white necks.

The two streetwalkers, who looked like they were in their twenties, started following them as they walked out of the cinema.

The expression of obscenity that could not be concealed on his face made several people passing by couldn't help but take a few more glances.

Well, you can tell at a glance that it's not a good bird.

But these two people didn't care about the eyes of others at all.

He was just thinking about which intersection he should be at, and blocked the two young and innocent-looking girls in front of him, trying to act like a hooligan.

Gradually, the distance between the two pairs before and after became closer and closer.

The two little girls looked at each other and smiled from time to time, making the two behind them even more itchy.

"Little sister," one of the men, wearing only a blue vest, leaned forward with a smile: "Where are you going to play?"

Jiang Chuan and Ying Ruhua were startled by the tune that seemed to pop out of the gutter.

Goosebumps broke out on the back of my neck for no apparent reason.

Ying Ruhua was frozen on the spot, unable to move, holding Jiang Chuan's hand tightly, not daring to turn his head.

Jiang Chuan, who usually felt that he was bold, started to tremble now.

Bravely, he turned his head slightly and glanced.

I didn't notice any trace of Shang Yu's fighting power before, but after taking a glance...even the strength to shout was gone.

Recently, there has been a lot of talk about blind people, but I never thought that I would actually encounter it.

Besides, this is not a blind slut, it's just a second-rate hooligan.

1979 was the peak year for educated youth returning to the city.

As if in the blink of an eye, many young people emerged from Pujiang City like the tide of the Qiantang River.

In addition, young students who have graduated from middle and high schools in this city no longer need to go to rural areas to join the queue and settle down.

Without exception, they are all collectively referred to as "unemployed youth".

The word "unemployed" actually didn't appear a few weeks ago.

Until all media outlets received a unified notice from the Propaganda Department, in order to appease the restless hearts of unemployed young people.

From now on, "unemployed youth" will be renamed "unemployed youth".

Every young person must understand: if you wait with peace of mind, there will be hope.

After working as farmers for many years, young people who cannot adapt to anything once they return to the city, can they really wait with peace of mind?

It's not that easy.

There was a huge flow of people and it was hard to calm down the resentment.

As a result, there are many unemployed young people on the market who are so-called "cannot get into big troubles, but keep getting into small troubles".

At this moment, Jiang Chuan tightly held Ying Ruhua's trembling hand.

"Don't... don't be afraid."

"..." Ying Ruhua tried her best to respond, but unfortunately she couldn't make any sound at all.

"Why aren't you talking?" Jie Jie's laughter came from behind: "There will be a show of "Zorro" at seven o'clock. Do you want to go to the cinema to watch it together?"

"Don't worry, we're treating you to a treat..."

Before the words were spoken, the two idiots were about to move forward one by one.

"You two are looking for death!"

There were two "dong-dong" sounds, and before the second-rate guy could react, two iron fists struck out of thin air.

Then, he punched him directly in the face with two more punches.

"ah!"

At this moment, the two girls who saw the savior finally screamed and quickly stepped aside holding hands.

The two of them howled so loudly that people at the intersection looked over, including a tricycle on the other side of the road.

"Is that the handle of the knife?"

"I'm so stupid."

The two brothers suddenly jumped off the tricycle and ran towards the little sister across the street.

"Knife handle, don't be afraid."

"Brother is here."

The three men were fighting in a ball, so the two brothers who came quickly couldn't find the target to attack.

"Brother, are those two wearing sweat vests?" Jiang Chuan yelled from the side.

"That, and that." Ying Ruhua, who was about to cry, also pointed.

Before the two sisters could explain, Jiang Shan also spotted one of them.

"Li Jinzhi? Why is it you?"

Just when the idiot finally reversed his disadvantage, the Jiang brothers joined the battle in time.

In an instant, layers of fog billowed on the sidewalk.

Boom boom boom, dong dong dong...

In just a few minutes, Jiang Shan and Li Jinzhi began to drag the second child desperately.

"I don't dare anymore, I don't dare anymore."

"We didn't do anything."

The couple lying on the ground with their eyes swollen and waving their hands, moaning and crying: "Take him away quickly..."

Jiang He's violent beating just now frightened them both into thinking they were going to die here.

"You are not allowed to appear near here in the future," Jiang Shan warned while holding down the furious second brother: "If we see him again, we will break your legs."

Unable to break out of the encirclement, the river kept breathing heavily.

Under the gentle reminder from the third child, he also began to calm down his breathing silently.

"Get out of here quickly."

Under Jiang Shan's final roar, the two guys supporting each other quickly ran out of sight.

"Brother," Jiang Chuan couldn't help but ran over and hugged his arm.

Jiang Shan put his arms around his little sister's shoulders and comforted her: "Let's go home first!"

After saying that, he turned around and left. When he passed by the shivering Ying Ruhua, he naturally grabbed her and said, "Go home."

Home is not as quiet as before.

Li Jinzhi, who had smeared violet on his arms and face, hugged a porcelain vat and dared not say anything.

"Fortunately, I met Comrade Li Jinzhi,"

Jiang Shan, who was really shocked, looked at the girl sitting on the two small benches with a serious face: "Otherwise, it would be better."

"I...what," Jiang Chuan clenched a bottle of purple potion in aggrieved tone: "We finally finished the exam, we...we just want to go watch a movie."

"Brother, what were you talking about two days ago?"

"Don't go out at night if you have nothing to do."

"what about you?"

"It's not dark yet."

"You can meet ghosts even if it's not dark, but what if it's completely dark?"

"Can……"

"What's wrong?" Jiang Shan, who never loses his temper, glared at his younger sister and said angrily: "Two students, if you don't stay home and read every day, why are you running around? Recently, they are not allowed to go out in the evening."

Jiang Chuan pouted, but dared not speak in anger.

Ying Ruhua really dare not say it.

Jiang He, with a cold face, said nothing!

After a while, the cold-faced and soft-hearted second brother said: "If you want to watch a movie in the future, just call me."

"Why."

"Um... Manager Jiang," Li Jinzhi said quickly as the atmosphere relaxed, "Director Jiang asked me to inform you that all the goods have been sold."

"oh?"

Listening to the good news brought by the other party, Jiang Shan, who had a serious face before, suddenly turned into a smiling face: "Thank you for your hard work, comrades of Jiangning Toy Factory."

"Haha, we should all do it."

"Comrade Li Jinzhi, from now on, just call me for this kind of thing. I asked you to make this hard trip, and you were... injured."

Jiang Shan looked at the disgraced Li Jinzhi with apologetic eyes.

Fortunately, this guy came in time today, otherwise those two guys would definitely have their legs broken.

"I have something important to do here today." After saying that, Li Jinzhi took out a magazine from his backpack and handed it over respectfully with both hands: "Thank you for lending me this book last time."

"It's just a book." Looking at the other party's posture, Jiang Shan was obviously startled: "You can just keep it and read it. There is no need to make a special trip."

"No, this book has helped me a lot," Li Jinzhi said with sincere eyes, "I must hand it over to you intact."

"Then...heh,"

At this time, in Jiangshan's eyes, Li Jinzhi was no different from a nerd.

He smiled and took the book from the other person's hand: "Okay, as long as it helps you."

Jiang He on the other side silently glanced at the book in Lao San's hand.

His eyebrows trembled, and it turned out that the magazine he had never been able to find was given to an outsider by this guy.
