"Is this trip going well?"
There are many things to pack later. Lu Aihua doesn't care about the electricity bill and lights up the light in her room.
This small courtyard is not big. It has two bedrooms. Except for the one where Yan Chu and his wife lived before, there is only one bedroom where the old lady lived.
Fortunately, the people here are used to sleeping on the Kang, and the city people are no exception. When the Kang was set, it grew a little longer. Five girls now sleep in the same room with the old lady. They are only two years old and are still the youngest son of a milk doll.
However, the child's eyes are big, and it is impossible to make do with it all the time. There are six children, an old man, seven mouths to feed. In addition, he has to save money to build a house. He clenched his teeth and sold his job for 200 yuan. Then he became a bastard and made this life-threatening money.
Yan Chu's voice was not small when he came into the house carrying things. In addition, several girls chirped without lowering their voice. The little son with meat on the Kang soon woke up. The corner of his mouth collapsed and was about to cry.
The older girl would coax her younger brother. Looking at his wronged appearance, she held him in her arms and shook him. Finally, he was coaxed to sleep before he cried.
"Pearl jade, keep your voice down. Don't wake up your brother again."
Yan Jin stared, and the four sisters said in a low voice. Although Yan Chu, her own father, didn't say it clearly, she just looked at the complaining little eyes, and she also complained in her heart.
Complain that they are not measured. If you wake up Yan Yuanbao, the evil star, the whole family won't have to sleep tonight.
Speaking of it, the name of the family is also very casual. Originally, the eldest daughter was born and wanted to have a son in the next child, so she named her eldest daughter Yan Jin. In the future, her son will be called Yuanbao, which is Jin Yuanbao.
But who knows, Yan Zhen, Yan Zhu, Yan Fei and Yan Cui were born one after another. After the sixth child, they gave birth to their son Yan Yuanbao.
This is the case in these days. If you don't have a son, you have to have a baby and then have a baby. Otherwise, even if you don't care, other people's saliva stars will drown you. Most of them scold women. They think it's women who don't work hard that can't give birth to a belt for their husband's family.
The original wife is such a sensitive woman. In addition, her mother is patriarchal. She always thinks that the most important thing in a woman's life is to have a son. As a result, she lost her life for her son.
When Mingming gave birth to the sixth child, she was twenty-eight. She also had the experience of giving birth to a child in front, but she was destined to have this disaster. When the child was in the wrong fetal position, she only reluctantly gave birth to the child when she was sent to the hospital and died of massive bleeding.
Before, the original wife worked as a temporary worker in the factory canteen, and the husband and wife's salary barely supported five daughters. But now the daughter-in-law is dead and there is another hungry child. If the original doesn't find a way to earn money, the whole family will be unable to live.
"Sister, we'll keep it down."
The little girls covered their mouths and whispered. They winked at their eldest sister Yan Jin and smiled pleasantly. Then they turned their heads and looked at the two big packages brought by their father to see what good things their father had brought to them.
"Dajin, you take your brother and sister to sleep in dad's house tonight. Dad and your milk have something to tidy up tonight."
At present, Yan Chu feels that the original children are still very good, and the feelings between sisters are good. Later, they will turn into people who turn over for money. In addition to their own reasons, they may also be inseparable from the original education.
"Dad, I'm good. Let me keep it."
Four year old Yan Fei and Yan Cui are twins. The two girls hold their father's leg and their eyes have not been removed from the package.
Before my father left, he said to bring them beautiful little skirts. They have been looking forward to it for a month. How would they want to miss this day.
"Emerald, don't make trouble, Dad."
Yan Jin is the most calm eldest sister. Although she is also lost that she can't watch her father and grandmother unpack, she still wisely holds her sleeping brother and urges several younger sisters to go to the next room with her.
"Hurry up and go to the next room with the quilt. Whichever moves slowly will have no eggs tomorrow."
The old lady's threat is more effective than Yan Jin's words. It is more attractive than the beautiful skirt she has never seen.
Yan Fei and Yan cuisong open their hands around their father's thighs, and appoint Qu Ba Ba Ba Ba Ba Ba Ba to hug their little quilt and pillow and leave slowly, taking the door with them.
"Have you spent all your money with so many things?"
The old lady watched her son open the nylon bag, took out a large bag of flour from under a pile of seafood and changed clothes, then untied the flour bag, reached directly into the flour bag and took out several boxes wrapped in yellow paper, all of which are now rare watches and radios.
In addition, the son searched again and sorted out 40 or 50 beautiful children's clothes. The styles are not available here. Just look with your eyes, you can think how beautiful these clothes should be on your body.
Most of these clothes are children's, and there are not many adult clothes.
The old lady helped her son divide things into piles, including the most expensive watches and radios, new clothes, and dried seafood and scallops.
The things in the two nylon bags are miscellaneous and messy. They are also clothes. There are a lot in the two nylon bags, the top layer and another layer separated by marine goods in the middle. In this way, the things are placed separately. At a glance, it seems that there are not many kinds. When they are sorted out, they will be piled together.
Looking at these things, Lu Aihua's intuition is that he spent a lot of money. His son took almost all the money from his family this time, and he doesn't know whether he can sell it at that time.
"Not many flowers."
Yan Chu smiled, lifted up his clothes and took out his wallet from the interlayer: "I brought 1000 yuan this time, and now there are more than 300 left."
"These things cost so much money?"
The old lady was surprised and asked. The family next door bought a radio and spent 110 yuan. The radio her son bought was smaller than that family's. she thought the price might not be much less. According to 100 yuan, the three in front of her now cost at least 300 yuan.
"Many small workshops have been opened in Shencheng, and some state-owned factories have begun to receive private orders. This kind of radio does not need tickets in Shencheng. It can be bought for only 70 yuan. These watches are not brand goods, but the advantage is that the price is cheap. I bought 20, and the purchase price is only 15 yuan each. We can sell at least 30 or 40 watches of the same type here."
Yan Chu took those watches and radios and explained to the old lady, "and these clothes are about the same price as those picked up in Shencheng. That is, I buy less goods and the price is higher. On average, each clothes is less than ten yuan."
"Less than ten dollars?"
Lu Aihua's mouth is wide open. Now the supply and marketing cooperatives still need tickets to buy things. It's difficult to make clothes by themselves. In addition to collecting cloth tickets, they have to spend at least ten yuan. The style is not as exquisite as these clothes.
In particular, some of the small skirts and laces were inlaid with lace. The old lady had never seen such beautiful clothes in her life. If they were put in the big shopping mall here, they would have to sell at least 50 or 60.
No wonder so many people are willing to take risks to be bad masters. This is profiteering.
The old lady calculated an account in her heart. It is conservatively estimated that these two bags of things can earn 600 or 700, which is equivalent to the income of her son for more than half a year when he was a worker before.
"But this line of business is also very risky."
Yan Chu told the story of being caught by the public security when he came back. He did not forget to mention the unlucky man who was stolen and captured by the public security. The old lady was stunned and grabbed his hand and read Amitabha.
"It's so dangerous. Let's stop doing it in the future. Just sell the things we earn from this trip and stop."
Compared with money, of course, her son is more important. The old lady trembled and took his hand and said.
"How can I quit? My second cousin has the job. If I stop, the whole family will starve to death."
Yan Chu shook his head with a bitter smile: "Mom, don't worry. I know that the public security is going through the scene in a hurry. As long as my heart quality is hard enough, it's okay."
His consolation didn't work at all. As long as the old lady wanted to get caught doing this, she had to eat in prison. But her son was right. Now the job is gone. If she doesn't do the bad work and there are six children at home, what can she do in the future?
"Mom, go get me a bowl of noodles. In order to save money these days, I'm willing to eat three steamed buns a day on the train, but I'm hungry."
Yan Chu rubbed his stomach and handed the bag of flour used to hold watches and radios to the old lady.
Watches and radios are wrapped in clean yellow paper and put in flour bags. They are not dirty at all.
"You big man eats three buns a day?"
The old lady raised her voice and felt even more sour. She immediately got off the Kang and walked three inches of golden lotus to her son.
After eating a bowl of noodles and taking a bath, the mother and son began to sort out the classified things on the Kang. All valuables such as watches were locked in the cabinet by the old lady.
Just that pile of clothes, mother and son had a little dispute.
"Before leaving, she said she would buy a beautiful skirt for Da Jin's sisters. Several little girls have been looking forward to it for several days?"
As soon as the old lady heard that those clothes were going to sell for money, she couldn't help speaking for her granddaughters.
"Mom, looking at Dajin, they are old. There must be more houses at home. It's time for Dajin and Erzhen to study. There are places to spend money everywhere. I'm useless as a father and can't give them a good life."
The vower said that only the necessary expenses will be given to several children before they are 18 years old. In this way, the beautiful little skirt will never be included in the necessary expenses.
Studying is different. No one can say that studying is not a necessary expense. Yan Chu felt that the original owner suffered a loss in his previous life. He gave several children good economic conditions, but did not enrich their spiritual world. In this case, they came back in this life.
Yan Chu immediately softened his heart when he heard this from the old lady.
How difficult it is for her son to eat three buns a day in order to save money. Isn't it for the children's future? In that case, it's OK for the granddaughters to wear less beautiful clothes. When the family's life is better, they will make up for it.
In this way, in the sleep of several children, they missed the beautiful little skirt they thought about day and night.
