After the little fat man finished speaking, he quickly went over to get an enamel jar and poured himself a glass.
"When do you have a holiday?" Fangyuan took a sip of water and asked the little fat man.
"I don't know." The little fat man shook his head and continued: "I haven't said it yet, but it should be soon."
Fangyuan gave him a look and said, "You don't need to tell me, I know it's almost over!"
There are still more than twenty days before the Chinese New Year, not even a month. Who doesn’t know that the holiday is coming soon? Fangyuan wants to know the exact time.
"Boss, you don't have to go to school, so why should I do this?"
"You forgot, I don't have to go to school, but I have to take the exam!"
"Uh!" The little fat man was stunned for a moment and said, "That's right!"
"Okay, ask the teacher later and tell me."
"No problem, don't worry, boss, leave this to me and I will help you find out."
"Yeah!" Fang Yuan nodded.
The next day was Saturday. Fangyuan thought the second sister would come back, but who knew there was no Sunday.
Fangyuan knows, probably because it’s almost the Chinese New Year, it’s not a week yet, and the winter vacation is coming soon anyway.
There is no Monday in the middle school in Woolen Factory, but it is the first week in elementary school. No, the little fat man stayed at his house the whole afternoon.
In the blink of an eye, another week has passed, and school is finally on holiday. Fangyuan has been very honest these days, basically not even leaving the house.
The main reason was that he had to take the exam, so he didn't go out. Otherwise, with Fangyuan's irresistible personality, it would have been impossible for him to stay away for such a long time.
The elementary school is on holiday, and then my second sister is on holiday as well. At this time, there are less than twenty days until the Chinese New Year.
Hearing the sound of firecrackers outside from time to time, Fangyuan felt a bit like the New Year. To be honest, although life in this era is relatively difficult, Fangyuan still likes celebrating the New Year in this era.
It’s not because of anything else, but because the Chinese New Year in this era has a New Year flavor, unlike in later generations, where there is basically no difference between Chinese New Year and normal times.
If there is a slight difference, it would be to take a few days off during the Chinese New Year, and then visit relatives and so on.
People in later generations are too busy, not to mention visiting relatives, and they don't have much rest, and they only have so much time during the Chinese New Year.
Since the holiday, the entire family home has become lively, with the sounds of happy children everywhere.
Children of this era are easily satisfied. A meal of meat or a new piece of clothing can solve everything.
You know, many children have been looking forward to the New Year for a year, let’s put it this way! The New Year has just been celebrated here, and they are thinking about when to celebrate the New Year again.
From here we can also see how bad life is. Why do children like to celebrate the New Year? It is because there are benefits to celebrating the New Year.
"Brother, give me some money and I'll buy firecrackers." Fangyuan was drinking tea in the house that day, and the third sister ran in from outside and said.
"Third sister, aren't you rich?"
Others don't know it, but Fangyuan still knows it. The third sister has a sum of money in her hand. Although it's not much, for a child, this is already a huge sum of money.
"No more."
"Uh!" Fangyuan was stunned for a moment and said, "It's gone? Why is it gone?"
The third sister gave Fangyuan a roll of her eyes and said, "It's all spent."
"No way! It's about ten yuan! You spent it all so quickly?" Fang Yuan looked at the third sister in surprise.
Hearing Fangyuan ask this, the third sister stood there holding the corner of her clothes, like a child who had done something wrong.
"Okay, okay, here you go." Fangyuan shook her head, took out five yuan from her pocket and handed it to the third sister.
"Thank you, little brother." The third sister took the money, came up and took a bite on Fangyuan's face, and then ran out.
Looking at the third sister running out, Fangyuan wiped her face and shouted: "You repay a kindness with a grudge! I give you money and you still bite me?"
After saying this, Fangyuan threw away her hand in disgust. There was third sister's saliva on it.
This scene happened to be seen by the second sister who was doing her homework, but she was so happy that she held a pen in one hand and covered her stomach with the other and laughed.
"Second sister, why are you laughing?"
"No, it's nothing! But little brother, are you too partial?"
"What's wrong?" Fangyuan asked confused.
"You gave your third sister money, where's mine?"
"Uh!" Fangyuan was stunned for a moment, then quickly took out another five dollars from his pocket and handed it to the second sister.
The second sister took the money, looked at it and said, "This is pretty much it."
"By the way, Second Sister, those guys who often bully the branch factory haven't bullied anyone in this period of time, right?"
"Hey! If you didn't tell me, I would have forgotten that I haven't seen them since the last time you went there." The second sister thought for a while and said.
"No!" Fang Yuan looked at the second sister in surprise.
"Brother, did you do something?" The second sister looked at Fang Yuan and asked.
"No, absolutely not." Fangyuan quickly shook his head in denial.
Seeing Fangyuan's denial, the second sister thought for a while and said, "That's right, although you are good at fighting, you can't beat them."
Hearing what the second sister said, Fangyuan breathed a sigh of relief. He was really afraid that the second sister would suspect him.
In fact, the second sister didn't know that this incident caused an uproar in the school, she just didn't know.
This may also be because she is not in the same grade and she is a girl, so she did not pay attention to this at all.
According to the teacher, they all suffered from hemorrhoids collectively, and they were very serious hemorrhoids, and they might have to take a year off from school.
Although many people wonder how severe hemorrhoids are and that they need to take a year off from school, the teacher has said so and no one dares to ask.
No one asked, no one asked, but many people talked about it privately.
Don't forget that almost half of the people in this school are from the main factory. Some of these people know what's going on.
After these people said this, things gradually became clear. It turned out that they had been tricked and are still in the hospital.
I heard that it seems to be very serious. I can't hold the door with my skin and there is a possibility of pulling my pants at any time.
When those guys lie down in the hospital, they always have to put a piece of cloth under their buttocks, just like a child's diaper.
Just as Fangyuan thought, Li Yanran did not come over during the winter vacation. Thinking about it, this is the Chinese New Year, a time for family reunion.
Of course, there are exceptions, and that is the little girl and the little fat man. Needless to say, the little girl lives at Fangyuan's house, but the little fat man is too much.
This is not to say that it is too much for him to stay at Fangyuan's house, but that it is too much to go home except for sleeping.
"Second sister, when will mom have a holiday?" Fangyuan looked back at the second sister and asked.
"Mom has a holiday on the 24th of the twelfth lunar month. Did you forget last year?"
"Uh!" Fangyuan was stunned for a moment and asked, "Really? I really forgot."
In the north, when celebrating the Little New Year on the 23rd, they usually have a holiday before the Little New Year. However, the wool spinning factory has a heavier workload and does not have a holiday until after the Little New Year every year.
But everyone is used to it. It’s just two more days of work. It really doesn’t matter to everyone.
Some people even say that they hope to have a few more days, and it is best to have a holiday during the Chinese New Year, or even say that there is no need to have a holiday during the New Year.
Not every family is the same. Many families have problems eating, and holidays mean no income.
This era is different from that of later generations. In later generations, state-owned enterprises like this would still be paid even if they were on holiday, but in this era, if you don’t work, you won’t have money.
Time passed day by day, and it was New Year's Eve in a blink of an eye. This morning, Fangyuan first delivered the fresh milk to the woolen mill, and then drove out.
Originally, Fangyuan was planning to go to the city in a few days, but Lao Cao called him and said that he had a batch of furniture for him to take a look at. No, Fangyuan went there in time for Xiaonian.
After arriving in the city, Fangyuan did not go to Lao Cao first, but went to Lao Xu and the others first!
Fangyuan didn't just send meat to Mr. Xu and the others this time, he also bought a batch of Maotai wine back.
After coming out of the compound, Fangyuan drove out of the city first, then changed the jeep into a truck before going to Lao Cao's house.
"Tuk-tuk-tuk!" Fangyuan honked the horn, and soon Lao Cao opened the door and came out.
Fangyuan got off the car and said, "Unload the meat first."
Lao Cao was stunned for a moment, and then his eyes shone, because Fangyuan was not talking about taking down the chickens and rabbits, but the meat.
Yes! Fangyuan did not give Lao Cao chickens and rabbits this time, but brought five pigs, of course, they were slaughtered.
This time Fangyuan even brought the pigs to the water. It can be said that there are five complete pigs, which are definitely enough for Lao Cao and others to celebrate the New Year.
Lao Cao did not let Fangyuan do anything, and carried these things into the house bit by bit.
After finishing it, Lao Cao said: "Let's go, let's finish it quickly and I'll come back and share the meat."
"Okay." Fang Yuan nodded.
Under the guidance of Lao Cao, we arrived quickly. The family did not expect that Fangyuan would come here on Xiaonian.
I was a little reluctant at first, but because of Lao Cao's face, I let him see it.
There are seven pieces of furniture in total, two large standing cabinets, a table, and four armchairs. Fangyuan looked at them and found that they were all old items.
Fangyuan winked at Lao Cao, and Lao Cao said to the owner of these furniture: "Master Hu, please make a price!"
"I said, Mr. Cao, have you made a mistake? You should make an offer first, right?"
Hearing what Mr. Hu said, Lao Cao said: "How about one hundred?"
"Master Cao, are you kidding me? If I re-make these furniture, the price would be about the same!"
"How is it possible? Just these few pieces of furniture, it costs at most fifty yuan to buy new ones."
Lao Cao is also an old man, and he still knows the price of furniture very well. Of course, he only knows about new furniture.
In order to help Fangyuan look at the furniture, Lao Cao has been going to many places to knock down furniture for a while. He can tell you how much it costs to knock out what kind of furniture. He is now very knowledgeable.
"I said to Mr. Cao, even if it costs 50 yuan to buy new furniture, do I still have to find someone to help transport it? And then treat someone to dinner or something, which is a lot of money."
Seeing that it was almost done, Fangyuan said at this time: "Two hundred yuan is the most. If it works, load the car now. If it doesn't work, we will see again."
