Chapter 200: Eating Melon in the Age of Literature (12)
Hercules?
Why are you so familiar?
Old Man Qiao only felt something flashing through his mind.
It's just that the speed was too fast, and he didn't catch it at all.
Shaking his head, Old Man Qiao stopped thinking about it, casually exchanged a few words with the doorman and other old colleagues, and then walked into the factory.
"Old man Qiao, shouldn't he still know this?"
Watching Old Man Qiao leave, a strange look flashed in the guard's eyes.
"Hmph! After a lifetime of shrewd calculations, you will suffer a big loss sooner or later!"
An old employee who had dealt with Old Man Qiao snorted coldly, eager to see the joke in his heart.
"What's wrong with these people? They all look at me strangely?"
"Has everything happened in the compound spread?"
"Hmph! No matter how ridiculous it is, it's still my housework, not even the leader can care about it!"
Old Man Qiao knew that he was in the wrong, and he also knew that he would definitely be criticized, but he had already fallen below the bottom line, so he had no scruples.
With his neck stiffened and his chest raised, Old Man Qiao's "rebellious" energy came back.
Not only did he ignore the strange looks from the factory employees, but he also went to the office and faced Director Feng’s reminder with a firm attitude——
"That's right! Let his brother Qiao Tongsuo take over the work of Jianguo."
"...Okay, okay, Xiao Feng, I understand the truth! But every family has its own scriptures that are difficult to recite, so you should hurry up and follow the rules."
Old man Qiao was very impatient.
These people are really busy with their time. All of them are born in the Year of the Dog. Why bother meddling in other people’s business?
Director Feng: ...You are a bastard, you are like a dog biting Lu Dongbin, and you don’t know a good heart.
Originally, for the sake of both father and son being his colleagues, Director Feng kindly reminded Old Man Qiao——
Don't adopt a nephew, having a great daughter-in-law is better than anything else.
As it turns out, Old Man Qiao knows no difference between good and evil!
Director Feng was so angry that he laughed, "Okay! Okay! I'll write you a note!"
If you don’t listen to the advice, then just wait and regret it!
Director Feng took out the pen from his shirt pocket, unscrewed the pen cap, and quickly wrote a letter of introduction.
With a snap, the seal was sealed.
"Okay! Let you, Qiao Tongsuo, go to the production brigade to go through the formalities."
"Xiao Feng, thank you!"
Old man Qiao happily took the letter away and thanked him not sincerely.
He blew on it and waited for the red mud mark on the seal to dry before folding it carefully.
"Come on! Let's work together! Xiao Feng, in a few days, there will be a wedding banquet at my house, don't forget to come and drink!"
Old man Qiao put the letter away and said hello to Director Feng.
Director Feng: ...If I remember correctly, your Jianguo’s Wuqi hasn’t arrived yet.
The only biological son died less than a month ago, and the family is about to have a "wedding banquet"?
This man is so vicious and cruel!
No friendship, at least no deep friendship.
"Hey! Definitely!"
Director Feng was speaking politely, but in his heart he had already crossed out Old Man Qiao's name.
…
Gu Qingcheng took Qiao Qiao and left the courtyard, but was not in a hurry to go to the station.
She first went to the supply and marketing cooperative.
After the original owner married into the Qiao family, her father-in-law became domineering and domineering, while her mother-in-law was bitter and mean.
This couple simply refused to let the original manager take care of the house.
Even his own son Qiao Jianguo had to hand over all his salary and then ask for pocket money from his mother-in-law.
Not to mention the cheap daughter-in-law of the original owner who just came out of the house.
When I usually go to make soy sauce or buy vegetables, my mother-in-law always gives me enough money.
Even if the original owner wanted to take the opportunity to save some private money, it would be impossible.
So much so that when the original owner was menstruating and needed to buy toilet paper, he would blush and reach out to his mother-in-law for money.
Fortunately, Qiao Jianguo loved his wife, and the original owner coaxed her husband very well.
Qiao Jianguo felt sorry for his daughter-in-law, who couldn't even afford a cream. She also did some private work after work.
Or take some scraps, make some gadgets, and secretly exchange them for money on the black market.
Qiao Jianguo was timid and did not dare to go too far.
But, a little adds up to a lot.
Every month, he can also earn three to five yuan.
He gave all the money to the original owner.
The original owner is a woman who lives her life well. She doesn't spend money carelessly when she has money.
She would buy herself some cream or better toilet paper.
But he would also give Qiao Jianguo eighty cents to buy a pack of cigarettes or go out for a meal with his colleagues.
This is more considerate and thoughtful than Ma's biological mother.
Qiao Jianguo felt more and more that his wife knew how much she cared about her.
He worked harder and harder to make extra money.
The original owner's small treasury is also growing day by day.
Last night, when Gu Qingcheng went to pack his clothes, he followed the memory of the original owner and took out a blue brick under the bed and found a round iron biscuit box.
There are bits and pieces of money in the box, food stamps, gas stamps, cloth stamps, industrial stamps and other things.
Gu Qingcheng roughly counted the money and found that there were more than one hundred and twenty yuan!
In four years, it was not easy to save this money just by relying on Qiao Jianguo's secretive private work.
The original owner is really a good woman who manages the house, and she also wants to live a down-to-earth life with Qiao Jianguo.
such a pity--
In addition to this private money, Gu Qingcheng also asked for half of Qiao Jianguo's pension and funeral expenses from Old Man Qiao.
There are also nearly three hundred yuan.
Plus the donations from neighbors sent by Fang Yaozhong.
Gu Qingcheng already had five hundred and fifty yuan in his hand.
In this day and age, five or six hundred yuan is definitely a lot of money.
If your family has special circumstances, you can buy a job quota.
Gu Qingcheng deposited most of his money in the bank, leaving only twenty or thirty yuan with him.
At the supply and marketing cooperative, I bought two packs of snacks, two bottles of wine, and some colorful fruit candies.
Carrying a bag full of things, Gu Qingcheng pulled Qiao Qiao onto the long-distance bus.
The car was very crowded, with people sitting next to each other.
It's almost autumn, and the weather is starting to get cooler.
But the car felt like a steamer.
It’s crowded, hot, and filled with all kinds of unpleasant smells—the smell of sweat, farts, feet, and chicken and duck shit.
Gu Qingcheng was used to being noble and had never experienced hardship in the previous novel world.
As soon as she stepped into the carriage, she was almost dizzy from the stench that hit her face.
However, Gu Qingcheng is very dignified, but he is also a tough and strong person.
Taking a deep breath and holding back her nausea, there was no look of disgust on her face or eyes.
On the contrary, it fits the character of the original owner very well - a rural girl who comes to the city.
She is novel and proud of riding in a car.
I can't say that I am arrogant. I raise my head and chest, and act pretentious, just like a little hen.
"laugh!"
The sound of a soda bottle being opened sounded in the car seat behind him.
Gu Qingcheng raised his eyebrows, oh, this is because his "little family spirit" was being laughed at.
She didn't look at him casually, but turned her head and glanced at the person behind her.
The original owner is indeed a person with a low self-esteem unique to rural people, but she is also cheerful and outgoing.
After staying in the city for four or five years, I have developed some "arrogance".
When she hears someone laughing at her, she will not curl up like a frustrated little daughter-in-law, but will act with a sense of "strong support".
"I'm sorry, I, my sister is young, she didn't mean to laugh at you."
The two girls in the back seat, one of whom was older, quickly apologized when she saw Gu Qingcheng looking back.
She looked to be about seventeen or eighteen years old, with dark oily hair in two braids that were placed on her chest.
Wearing a white shirt and a gray Lenin suit, he has delicate features and an air of someone who has read a book.
It's hard to say where he came from, but he must have been well raised.
Gu Qingcheng did not hide his appraising gaze.
Just looking at each other carelessly.
The other girl, the one with the snickering laughter, looked about fifteen or sixteen years old.
Dressing up is more "foreign style".
It’s already autumn, but I’m still wearing a white-bottomed Bragi with small floral prints.
Even if you have long sleeves, you should still wear a jacket.
But this is how she dresses, which highlights her slender waist and light figure.
"Sister, why am I so young!"
The Bragi girl was a little dissatisfied, pouting her little lips and acting coquettishly like the girl Lenin pretended to be.
However, when she looked up, she happened to see Gu Qingcheng's face.
"Ah! You look so good-looking!"
"There is a beautiful woman in the north, left behind and independent, looking at the charming city..."
Although Miss Bragi is squeamish and likes to laugh at people, she has a lively temperament.
Moreover, at first glance, it seems that he has read the book.
Open your mouth and read a poem.
"Sister, look, is this what the ancients said is what the ancients call a country-powerful city?"
Great beauty, a real living beauty!
Little stars appeared in Miss Bragi's eyes.
Gu Qingcheng: ...I thought she was a snobbish person who looked down on others, but I didn't expect that she turned out to be a little tsundere + a senior beauty!
Gu Qingcheng showed a confused expression at the right time, "What kind of beauty? What does it mean to have a beautiful country and a beautiful city?"
She looks like a pure village girl who has never seen the world and has never read a book.
The peerless beauty instantly became the beauty of a rural village.
Su Anqi just felt like her filter was shattered all over the floor!
The girl pretending to be Lenin knew her sister's nature. Seeing her appearance, she quietly pulled her sleeves, then smiled and said to Gu Qingcheng: "This lesbian, my sister has no ill intentions!"
"She was praising you for your good looks and that you are a great beauty who will captivate the whole country."
Hearing Lenin's explanation of pretending to be a girl, Gu Qingcheng acted like an uneducated village woman, with a proud smile on her face and eyes, but she still said a few words of humility: "Oh, it's so embarrassing to 'power the country and the city'."
of."
"However, I am indeed the best-looking girl in our village."
Sisters Su Anqi & Su Anna:......
I said I was embarrassed, but in the end I was full of pride.
This person——
"Sister, you have such a good character!"
Su Anqi, who was wearing a floral Bragi, smiled with crooked eyebrows, without any hint of irony or ridicule.
Wow, she really thinks big sister is good: she looks so good!
Such a beautiful face that seems to have come out of an ancient poem makes me happy just to look at it.
Who would care that she is an uneducated and uninformed village woman?
This time, Su Anna, pretending to be Lenin, did not blame her sister, but nodded in agreement——
This lesbian is so pretty!
