On the fire bed, Yang Qing stared at his brother with burning eyes, rubbed his hands and said: "Brother, please order."
"We brothers don't need to be like this."
Chu Heng waved his hands with a smile, got up and went back to his room. After a while, he came back with a stack of dough sticks and slapped it on the Kang table: "Old rules, I'll take 10%, and you count the money."
Looking at the thick wad of money, Yang Qing's breathing became rapid, but he was not greedy. Instead, he took out four or five pieces of money from the money and handed them to Chu Heng without even counting them: "How can I still get 10%?"
Well, if you get more, I won't let your work go in vain."
"Hurry up and take your three melons and two dates." Chu Heng pushed the money back happily and said with a smile: "Your brother, I won't give you this little money. You should keep it to buy something. When will you earn it?"
It’s a lot of money, it won’t be too late for us to divide it.”
"this……"
Yang Qing, who knew Chu Heng's temperament, hesitated for a moment, then did not insist anymore. After putting the money back, he said seriously: "Brother, when I have money in the future, I will definitely not forget you."
"Okay, stop talking about these useless things and drink tea." Chu Heng smiled casually and pushed the tea cup forward, and the two brothers chatted.
Chatted for a long time.
He suddenly remembered the deaf old lady, and asked his little brother: "Hey, by the way, I remember your home is in Dacheng, right? Then do you know an old lady named Wu Xiumei? She is in her eighties.
, another small scar on the corner of my eyebrow."
"Wu Xiumei?"
Yang Qing thought about it carefully and shook his head: "I've never heard of this person. What's wrong, brother? Are you looking for her?"
Chu Heng was not very disappointed with his answer. After all, it was just a casual question. He immediately explained: "Yes, I am looking for her. This old lady is the lost sister of the old lady in the hospital where I used to live. It is said that she is
In Dacheng County.”
Yang Qing heard this and said quickly: "Then I will go back and help you inquire."
"Just ask, don't bother too much, it all depends on fate." Chu Heng responded casually, then raised his hand to look at the time, then asked in a different tone: "Are you hungry? How about we go eat?
?”
"I'm not hungry, I'm not hungry. I ate dry food and drank a lot of water. I'm full." Yang Qing patted his belly, then thought about it and said, "Brother, why don't you take me to the trust store again? I think
Go buy something."
"Then let's go." Chu Heng nodded with a smile, got up and put on his shoes.
Yang Qing also hurriedly went to the ground. After putting on his shoes, the boy rolled his eyes and asked Chu Heng again: "Brother, can you exchange me for some food stamps and meat stamps?"
Chu Heng didn't think about it and asked directly: "What's wrong with this? How much does it cost?"
"Three catties of fine grain stamps and half a catty of meat stamps, okay?" Yang Qing asked hurriedly.
"No, that's all you need to say back? Is that enough?" Chu Heng looked at him speechlessly, do you look down on me, Da Da Heng, or something?
When Yang Qing heard that he had agreed, he grinned happily and said hurriedly: "That's enough, that's enough. I know it's not easy for you in the city. If you can give me some peace, I'll be quite satisfied."
"You're not greedy." Chu Heng shook his head in a funny way, and went back to the east room again. He directly gave the little brother twenty kilograms of food stamps and five kilograms of meat stamps: "Brother, I don't need these things. Take them.
Go back and get some meat for your family."
Yang Qing was surprised and took the thing inexplicably, and hurriedly paid him: "Brother, how much is it, I'll give it to you, you have to get this, otherwise I won't want these tickets."
This little brother is really good!
Chu Heng glanced at him appreciatively, but didn't calculate it, and said casually: "I've never sold this before, so let's not forget it, just give me ten yuan."
Without the involvement of family ties, his business would have been a loss. You must know that when the pigeon market was still there, fine grain stamps were only 30 cents a pound, and meat stamps were more than one yuan, let alone now.
Ten yuan can’t even buy a meat ticket!
"Isn't ten yuan a little less? How about I give you twenty?" Yang Qing also felt that his brother was at a disadvantage, and he tried with a hopeful look on his face, for fear that Chu Heng would not agree.
"What's the matter with you kid? We haven't been in contact for a long time. Don't you know what my temper is? It's only ten yuan. If you don't want to, just return the ticket." Chu Heng refused as expected and glared angrily.
glanced at him.
These two brothers are also quite interesting. The younger brother keeps trying to give money, but the older brother refuses to ask for anything. This is rare these days.
"Then...then ten yuan." Yang Qing sighed helplessly and handed his brother ten yuan.
Immediately, the two set off from home and drove to the nearest trust store.
Compared with last time, Yang Qing was more confident this time, after all, he had a small two hundred yuan bill in his pocket.
When they arrived at the place, the boy followed the mouse into the rice barn. When he saw something he liked, he didn't hesitate to throw coins around, and soon he bought a large bag of things.
However, I didn’t go shopping lavishly on basic clothes, shoes, socks, needles, thread, brains and other things that were lacking at home.
After wandering around for a while, the two brothers soon came to the counter selling watches.
This time, the little brother still hesitated.
Watches are something that everyone nowadays, regardless of gender, doesn't like, but the price is really painful.
Fortunately for city dwellers, those who earn a salary can afford it if they grit their teeth and save for a period of time.
As for Yang Qing, who was born in a rural area, the money earned by a large family throughout the year may not be enough to buy a watch. Although he has hundreds of yuan in his pocket at the moment, if he is asked to spend dozens of yuan to buy this, he will
Still a bit reluctant to give up.
Furthermore, he didn't know how to explain it to the villagers after buying it back.
Chu Heng looked at the hesitant little brother, and roughly guessed some of his inner thoughts, so after thinking about it, he pointed at a dial on the counter with broken glass, and many scratches and dents on the casing and strap.
Shanghai watch, he whispered to Yang Qing: "Brother, if you really like it, buy this. Later I will take you to a buddy of mine to tidy it up. It doesn't cost much, and it can be almost 60 to 70% new. Wait like this
It will be easier for you to explain when you get back."
"It's true, brother!" Yang Qing's eyes suddenly lit up and he looked over excitedly.
"Can I still tease you about this?" Chu Heng rolled his eyes at him.
"Hehe, then I will listen to my brother." Yang Qing grinned, pointed at the Shanghai watch, and asked the salesperson who was standing at the counter chatting with others: "Comrade, how much does this watch cost?"
"Do you want to buy it?" the salesperson took a look at it and kindly reminded: "This is a twenty watch. It's cheap, but there seems to be something wrong with the parts inside. The needle won't go. Several people bought it before and tried to repair it, but they couldn't.
Later he was sent back."
"Thank you for reminding me."
Chu Heng smiled and bowed his hand to the salesperson, handed over his work permit, and said: "But we still want to try, in case it is repaired, but it is missing."
The salesperson didn't try to persuade her any more, and neatly brought out a stack of blank bills. After a while of writing, he handed over his work permit and a receipt: "Okay, then you can go back and try, but I have to remind you."
, if you send this watch back, it won’t be at this price.”
"I understand, I understand, your store has to make some money." Chu Heng took the things with a smile, turned around and took Yang Qing to pay.
Not long after.
The two brothers left the trust store with a big bag and a tattered watch, spending a total of eighty-two dollars and thirty cents.
In the car, Yang Qing was holding a tattered watch, looking at it over and over like a treasure, feeling indescribable fondness in his heart.
This is the first watch he has ever owned. It is broken, but it is an object after all!
