golden years(10)

On Saturday, Fourth Master and Tongtong went to Sanyun County.

I had made two Chinese tunic suits for Lin Shuangchao earlier and brought them with me this time. I didn’t make them for Wu Xiuzhen because these women’s ready-to-wear clothes are more popular now. Although I make them very well, people always think they are popular.

It is the best. On the contrary, it is men's clothing. So far, it is still a Chinese tunic suit. It never goes out of style no matter how you wear it.

In Sanyun County, Lin Shuangchao and Wu Xiuzhen also live in a small courtyard in the county town. However, running water is installed in the county town. If it is convenient, it is convenient here.

When they got home, Lin Shuangchao went to work. Wu Xiuzhen was waiting at home, making dumplings in the kitchen. "Hurry up and wash your hands. The meal will be ready in a while."

The vegetables they grew in the yard almost took up the whole yard. There was a chicken cage in the corner with three or two hens, and the eggs they laid were enough for them to eat. The two of them actually lived very frugally in the county.

The Fourth Master washed his hands and rolled up his sleeves, "These beans and cucumbers are all off the shelves. I'll pull them out for you and dig them out!"

Hey! Done!

Wu Xiuzhen took a look and saw that the wooden sticks for building the shelf had been arranged and tied into a bundle. At least she felt that her son-in-law was more pleasing to the eye. Lin Yutong saw that the work was not much, so the fourth master should keep it to pass the time.

Otherwise, it would be awkward to accompany my mother-in-law, who is still in the picky stage.

Wu Xiuzhen's eyes and eyebrows were filled with smiles, "I heard from your dad that their newspapers and periodicals are not low-level and very influential."

Today's newspapers and periodicals are all about serious literature, how can there be entertainment? The influence is not low.

She leaned against the kitchen door and looked at the small kitchen. It was still burning charcoal! Then she looked at the charcoal in the basket, "This... who usually brings this back to you?"

Wu Xiuzhen rolled her eyes and said, "Your mother is not stupid, and she gets along well with everyone around her. Who can help her? Your father said that he won't ask the driver to do personal things, but if he doesn't bother others, he won't feel at ease.

.I occasionally ask people to take time out to help me, and they feel at ease."

"Then I'll get some soap, toothpaste and the like later, and you can keep them at home. They've helped me, so you can give some to them. This will save my dad from knowing about it, and he'll talk to you again."

Know!

Lin Yutong doesn't think there's anything wrong with this kind of thing. People have to be humane! As long as it doesn't violate the principles, you can't have personal relationships with others? She doesn't want to be promoted, she just wants to get close to her and feel at ease. It's just human nature.

This time it was a happy thing. Wu Xiuzhen made dumplings with large meat and leeks, stuffed the meat with potatoes, and mixed some cold vegetables. When the door rang, Lin Shuangchao came back. Before anyone came in, she shouted: "It's Xiao Jin and Xiao Tong."

Are you back?"

The fourth master called out "Dad", and Lin Yutong also laughed, "You must have left early today."

Yes! I left early.

Lin Shuangchao then joked with Fourth Master, "Anyone who works as soon as he comes in is a good uncle. Come on, come on! Work slowly, and you are not allowed to leave until you finish. But you can't delay eating, eat first!" Wu Xiuzhen

I asked quietly in the kitchen, "What did your son-in-law do to please your father?"

Yes! Lin Shuangchao was very happy. His former colleague in a regional office was in his hometown county. When we called him this time, he wanted to know about his son-in-law. Only then did he find out that he was really doing "buying and selling"!

In the past, the state purchased and the state sold, but now, units can be used as an experiment in the market to purchase and sell for the purpose of profit. This is an attempt at reform. Although it is a single act of the purchasing and marketing cooperative in a small commune, it is

The superiors attach great importance to this matter.

At the dinner table, Lin Shuangchao said to Tongtong, "You have made money, but the money you make is personal. Although Xiao Jin does not earn much, his father feels that what Xiao Jin does is more meaningful. If he persists in this approach

, can make many people's wallets bulge. This is not something that can be measured by money! If you want to say who has made a greater contribution to this society, I think it is Xiao Jin."

Lin Yutong nodded, "You're right!" Lin Shuangchao didn't really feel that his daughter had done a bad job, but he affirmed his uncle and looked up to him, fearing that this uncle who had gone astray would suddenly think wrong and take another detour.

He is afraid that his daughter will be strong, his man will be weak, and his family will be unstable. Of course, he also really feels that a rich job is more meaningful.

After praising Fourth Master, he said to Tongtong, "Dad, I'm not saying your work is unimportant! The influence of the article is subtle and cannot be quantified. You wrote very well this time, reflecting social issues from an objective perspective.

.In the future, I also hope that you will look at it from an objective perspective! There are too many articles like this if you just praise blindly. If you criticize blindly, it is also harsh. Just be objective. This scale is just right. Listening to the radio is beneficial.

After I go back, I have to order newspapers, read more newspapers, and keep up to date with real-time news. It’s also good in the countryside. I need to speak more for the farmers, who are the most vulnerable group in this society.”

He was very excited after the meal and talked non-stop. After the meal, he had to go to work in the afternoon. "Tomorrow is the weekend. Don't rush to leave. Stay tonight and leave tomorrow."

I didn't want to leave right now.

Only then did Wu Xiuzhen have time to give the money she took out to Tongtong, "Count it, it's a total of two thousand and four."

"You have to pay taxes!" The remuneration is not low, but the taxes are also high. "The minimum tax is 800, and the tax part to be paid is 1,600. If the tax is 14%, you have to pay 220

Fourteen yuan of personal tax."

So many!

Well! If it exceeds 4,000, it will be taxed at 20%.

Writers are different from other professions. Their income is unstable. If you win this article, you will make some money. If you don’t win that article, you will not make any money. That is to say, in the 1980s, literati were pretty good. In a few years,

When the market boom came, publications were not as popular as they are now, author fees remained unchanged, and prices skyrocketed. It would be a dream to make a fortune relying on this thing.

I had nothing to do in the afternoon, so I took Wu Xiuzhen with my fourth master to the shopping mall in the county. Only then did Wu Xiuzhen realize that this child was really good at spending money. He gave his father a watch, leather shoes, and even bought two more for himself.

I also bought some shoes and some wool.

"You can knit it yourself. My dad's sweater must have been patched."

Go back and tell your dad what to say!

"I earned it myself, and my dad didn't tell me."

yes!

Didn't say.

Lin Shuangchao tried it on, put it aside if he thought it fit, and said, "I'll wear it tomorrow." I felt honored wearing the new one!

Lin Yutong put the watch on for him, "It's not a very good brand, please wear it first. I will change it for you in the future with a better one."

Okay! Put it on, "It's different!"

After cooking two dishes, the fourth master drank with Lin Shuangchao and talked about work, "... If you want to do something, you have to be able to live with people first. I used to be idle, so it's no wonder that the leaders didn't dare to use it. I just thought, I have to let everyone eat it first.

Profit. After selling corn once, there are people who secretly go to the county to sell it. This is a good thing. What's next? I think about it. The sweet potatoes on the brigade are planted in large quantities every year. We have vermicelli processing ourselves, so

We sell finished vermicelli, including radish and cabbage. If we are tired of winter vegetables and there is no place in the city to pickle sauerkraut, we can process it ourselves. From selling agricultural products directly to processing agricultural products, there is one more step and one more labor force.

, the farmer’s income will increase by 10%... After it is completed, I still hope to be based on the unit and allocate all the agricultural production materials. For example, if the agricultural machinery breaks down, there will be no place to purchase the spare parts.

Go. I think these allocation tasks should also be part of supply and marketing."

Lin Yutong didn't listen to what he said. He was wrapping yarn with Wu Xiuzhen on the other side. Wu Xiuzhen said, "Looking at what Sihai is like now, it's not a big deal. Just be careful and don't let it drift outside. It's okay."

.As for the training and distribution of new recruits, I just sent a letter to my family last week, saying that in the southwest, I wrote a letter about your marriage, but I guess I haven’t received it yet. I’m not worried about you two for the time being... You said you

How are you going to handle this, eldest sister? Are you still fine with that Jianmin?"

"I see that my eldest sister is not very enthusiastic anymore." Lin Yutong said, "The other person works at the power station...it's not that the conditions are not good. My eldest sister has my eldest sister's concerns."

Wu Xiuzhen kept wrapping her hands around her, "I'm twenty-five, so I'm older. I haven't talked about getting married. I'm just waiting to arrange a job for your eldest sister. This matter, your eldest sister is cold, that's it.

, it’s not that you are confused. Don’t say that your dad hasn’t vomited now, he just vomited... This family is not suitable. If you can go back to the city, then bring up the marriage. If you can’t go back to the city, people won’t say no, but they won’t talk about the marriage.

I keep putting it off. Not to mention your father, I don’t like my attitude. Now it’s up to your eldest sister to decide.”

Everyone feels as if they are dragging others along, but in fact, the man took the initiative to bring up the marriage. The other party was silent, so who is dragging whom?

Wu Xiuzhen asked again: "I have never seen the Gaocheng that your second sister talked about. When he returned to the city, it was supposed that the two of them should break off. But it turns out that they have just kept going for several years. What do you mean?"

The original owner had an impression of Gao Cheng. The young man was not outstanding in appearance, but he was very lively. She said, "He is 1.7 meters tall, which is not very tall. He is very thin, and his facial features can only be regarded as regular. Judging from his appearance, he seems to be somewhat matched."

Not as good as my second sister."

Let’s just say it! There must be a reason.

Wu Xiuzhen asked, "What did your second sister say?"

"My second sister... was thinking about going to the provincial capital even to do temporary work." Lin Yutong sighed, "My grandma stopped her. She said she couldn't go without mentioning black and white."

Wu Xiuzhen stopped tying the thread and said, "The two of them don't see each other very often."

That's not necessarily the case, "I'm afraid that the second sister will go to the county town on the weekend. It's hard to say whether it's because Gao Cheng came back from the provincial capital."

Wu Xiuzhen asked Tongtong, "Do you think these two are suitable?"

"I think...according to the current policy, an iron rice bowl does not necessarily mean insurance. My second sister is actually more flexible. Even if she is a temporary worker, it is not impossible for her to want to go. This time she helped us matchmaking, and she took the second

10. Then tell me, there will be a lot of things like this in the future. With my second sister’s fiery temperament and temporary work... does she think the money is worth it?”

It's not a question of more money or less.

Wu Xiuzhen said, "You have this ability. To be honest, once your father revealed it, it would be easy for you to have an employer. If you have an employer, you will be protected when you get old. How do you get a temporary job like your second sister?"

But who knows what they are talking about. Early the next morning, the Fourth Master swept the yard and was about to go out to buy more charcoal. He met a couple in their fifties, looking in at the door. The man was holding a

A black leather bag with the words Ninth Cotton Mill on it.

The fourth master asked: "Are they Uncle Gao and Auntie?"

The man immediately stretched out his hand to shake hands with Fourth Master, "This is Lin Yurong's house. We are here to visit. I'm sorry."

Yes! Yes! Please come in.

As he spoke, he led the people inside. The fourth master called Wu Xiuzhen and Lin Shuangchao, "Mom and Dad, my uncle and aunt are here at Brother Gao's house in Gaocheng."

Yo! How do you say this?

Lin Yutong hurriedly went out to greet him, "It's not easy to find out from such a long distance, please come in quickly."
