Chapter 5: 005 Can't do speculative things

Chapter 5 005 Speculative things can’t be done

Jiang Mu took the initiative to approach, "Have you been to the city?".

Sun Quan shook his head. The farthest place he has been to is the school.

"Wait, my sister will show you to the world in the future." Jiang Mu smiled brightly and brazenly.

Sun Quan seemed to be shaken by this smile. Seeing Jiang Mu, he didn't seem to care about the shabby clothes he was wearing, and he began to speak boldly.

"This is a grain and oil store. We usually buy rice here."

"There is a grocery store in front, soy sauce and vinegar, we all go there."

"This is the hairdressing salon opened by Aunt Wang. It costs 50 cents for a haircut, which is very expensive."

……

At dusk, the two moved around the surrounding area. Sun Quan was indeed familiar with the surrounding area, and Jiang Mu basically understood the general situation.

When I went back, I bought a large bundle of red wool and a large bundle of black wool, as well as two pairs of needles, and cut two catties of pork belly by the way.

Sun Quan watched her spend ten yuan without blinking. She was shocked. Ten yuan can be used by their family for one month.

Jiang Mu felt funny, "reach out."

"What are you doing?" Sun Quan was puzzled, but he still did the same, his palms were flushed, and several places were swollen and swollen with frostbite.

Jiang Mu put a toffee, "Thank you for staying with me today."

Looking at the white packaged toffee in his palm, Sun Quan pursed his lips and swallowed, but shook his head firmly, "Grandma said that we will be neighbors in the future. Thanks for these little things."

"This candy is quite expensive, you can eat it yourself." He glanced at the pork belly and woolen yarn in her hand, hesitated, and said, "You still don't spend money like this in the future. It will cost a lot of money to go to school. , Aunt Zhao will take you alone, very tired."

He was treated as a kid who was spending money, Jiang Mu didn’t explain, he peeled off the sugar paper and stuffed it into his mouth, "Woah."

The thick milk flavor hits, Sun Quan has never eaten such delicious sweets in his fifteen-year-old life. It's not easy for grandparents to take him, life is very difficult for school, he has never eaten this kind of candy.

"After eating my candy, we will be friends in the future." Jiang Mu said.

He showed a big smile, nodded heavily, patted his chest, "Brother protect you in the future."

Jiang Mu raised his brows, compared the heights of the two with his hands, and raised his jaw, "Sister!"

Looking at the girl who is half a head taller than herself, "Brother will protect you from now on."

Jiang Mu laughed out loud, this little kid is quite stubborn.

Evening, every household starts to cook.

Zhao Yue moved here, in one day, the shanty town basically knew about it.

"I heard that the girl from the Zhao family who married in the capital is back. I heard that she can't give birth to a son, and the man doesn't want her anymore."

"No, I heard that her husband's family is also cruel, and didn't even give her a penny, so she kicked her out."

"I think the old Zhao's family is still bullish? These years, it hasn't been showing off, all day long. Now the girl is driven out, it is ashamed!"

"The arrogance when she came back before, let's see what else she can be arrogant in the future."

"A woman's house, no job, no money, with a drag oil bottle, hard days are still behind."

Zhao Yue obviously became the joke of everyone after dinner.

Glee and ridicule, flooded into the ears of the mother and daughter.

Jiang Mu is a little angry. In this era, divorce is not a glorious thing, and it is easy to be gossiped about by others.

Looking at Zhao Yue who was stewing the meat, she opened the door a small gap, and the smell of braised pork drifted far away along with the heat.

Zhao Yue’s cooking skills are very good, and he is willing to put oil and seasonings, the thick meaty fragrance, the hooker's saliva, the fragrance is ten miles.

People living in this area have many poor families and some conditions are okay. However, it is not all meat that can be eaten every meal. Many of them can only be eaten during the Chinese New Year. Few families are willing to make money on weekdays.

Smell the smell of the meat, and then saw Jiang Mu filled out a bowl, what else did everyone not understand.

Come on, don’t talk about other people’s gossip, they are having a good time.

Look at the meat, the color is bright, the meat is mellow, and there must be a lot of oil and sugar.

People are doing much better than them.

A woman who was about to receive water at a public faucet asked, staring at the braised pork in her bowl and asked, "Mu Mu, where are you going?"

Jiang Mu showed a bright smile, "Go to grandma's house to deliver an order, and buy honeycomb briquettes today, thanks to the help of grandpa and grandma."

Several people looked at each other, this is a bowl of meat, why is it costing two yuan, this person is really generous, looking at Jiang Mu's figure, listening to the surprise sound from the Sun family, several women went home in embarrassment.

Smell the smell of meat in the air, and then look at the sweet potato porridge and radish pickles in my bowl. I can’t eat a bite.

Sun's house.

Sun Hongfen looked at the tempting braised pork and declined, “Mu Mu, it’s really unnecessary. We are all neighbors. It’s just a matter of pulling a cart of coal. You don’t need to be so polite.”

Jiang Mu directly put the bowl on the dining table, smiling and bending his eyebrows, "It's not polite, I have to ask Grandma Sun for help. Sun Quan said that grandma knits very well, and all the sweaters on his body are knitted by grandma. Can't knit gloves?"

"So you bought wool today to knit gloves?" Sun Quan suddenly realized.

Jiang Mu smiled and nodded.

Sun Hongfen smiled kindly, “Isn’t it just a pair of gloves? Don’t worry, don’t look at your grandma’s old age. When she was young, grandma was born in a large state-run textile factory and it didn’t take much effort.”

"It's great, I'll send the thread and needle over in a while." Jiang Mu ran home and gave the old man no chance to refuse.

Sun’s family is very poor. It is the poorest one in the already poor shanty town.

The old couple are getting older, with their grandchildren, and the family relies on grandfather grandfather grandfather Sun’s tricycle to make a living. Such a difficult life requires barely enough food and clothing, not to mention eating meat.

"Eat, Koizumi, you eat more, you are growing up, eat more of the strong one." Sun Hongfen clipped the largest piece to his grandson.

"Your grandma is right, you should eat more." Grandpa Sun also smiled and picked up a chopstick for his grandson.

"Grandpa and grandma eat too." Sun Quan also gave the two elderly people a piece.

The meat is very fragrant, and Sun Quan couldn’t bear to swallow it. His lips were so shiny that he watched his grandparents reluctant to eat, and he gave the two old men a few more pieces.

"Grandpa and grandma, I will make a lot of money in the future. Our family eats braised pork every day!"

"Good, good!"

The old man smiled happily.

In a room with more than ten square meters, the light bulb is the lowest wattage and the most energy-saving, the light is dim and yellow, and the poorest family is the most warm.

Jiang Mu had calculated the time, took the wool and needles, and Sun Hongfen looked at her bright red wool. Without getting started, he knew that it was a good product, and he was more careful when getting started.

"Grandma, I want to learn a little bit. Isn't this the New Year? I want to knit a pair of gloves for my mother." Jiang Mu was a little embarrassed.

"Good girl, filial piety, you should be filial to your mother, your mother, it is not easy." Sun Hongfen felt very distressed.

Needless to say about this, Jiang Mu also knows that when she went back today, she saw that her mother was planning an order, it must be because the family's money was not enough.

Under such a situation, she carried the wool and meat to go home. Her mother didn't say a word. She was still smiling softly as before. Such a good mother naturally wanted her to have nothing to worry about.

"Knitting gloves looks difficult, but it is actually very simple. You are so smart, and you will surely learn it." Sun Hongfen smiled kindly.

Jiang Mu also felt that she would definitely be able to learn. She is not really only fifteen years old, but the fact is that Sun Hongfen has finished knitting one, and she hasn't even finished two lines.

Until Sun Yue called Jiang Mu to go home to sleep, she still hadn't completed the palm of her hand.

"You better let go of these woolen threads." Looking at the red woolen threads that were almost messed up, Sun Quan was a little speechless.

"Grandma will knit two pairs for you tomorrow. This woolen yarn is a good thing and can't stand your misfortune." Sun Hongfen said with a smile.

Jiang Mu was a little embarrassed, put all the needles and threads here, and went home.

As soon as she left the house, the lights in the Sun’s house dimmed.

Jiang Mu felt that she had overlooked something.

"Don't stay at your grandma's house for too long in the evening." Zhao Yue reminded softly.

Jiang Mu knew instantly that the electricity bill was very expensive.

Zhao Yue thought she was upset, and added, “But you can invite grandma and grandma’s family to the house. In the future, if your mother is not at home, someone will look after you.”

Jiang Mu hugged her arm and snuggled up, "Mom, you can go out without worrying about me, I am not a kid. I can play with Sun Quan, and you don’t have to worry about it."

Zhao Yue touched her head, very pleased.

*

The next morning, after Zhao Yue and Jiang Mu had breakfast, Zhao Yue went out and Jiang Mo went to Sun's house.

Unexpectedly, Grandma Sun’s hands were so fast that the two pairs of red gloves were already knitted.

"Mu Mu, see if you are satisfied?" Sun Hongfen handed over the gloves.

Jiang Mu put it on directly, soft and very warm.

The gloves are finely knit. Although there is no pattern, they are bright red and very festive. Jiang Mu is more confident about the next plan.

"Grandma Sun, can we knit the kind with five fingers apart?"

"It takes a little effort, we can still weave."

"Grandma, how about a business?" Jiang Mu sat down and asked with a smile.

Sun Hongfen is getting older, and some do not quite understand what she said, Sun Quan on one side asked, "What do you want to do?"

Jiang Mu pointed to the two big **** of wool on the bed, "The remaining wool is woven into gloves, this kind of usual two cents a pair; the five fingers separated, three cents a pair; there are patterns of fifty cents on it. A pair of money."

Sun Quan instantly understood her plan.

"Mu Mu, this can't be done. It's not easy for your mothers. It's not as easy as you used to be. You have to save money. Grandma is fine at home, so it's easy to knit a glove. Grandma doesn't need your money."

Sun Hongfen hasn’t realized what she is going to do.

"Do you want to sell gloves?" Sun Quan immediately understood.

Jiang Mu hadn’t spoken yet, Sun Hongfen turned pale when he heard the sale, and grabbed her hand to persuade, “Mu Mu, you can’t do this speculative thing. If this is caught by the police, how can you get it.”

Seeing that the old man was really worried about her, Jiang Mu felt warm. She held the old man’s rough palms and smiled cleverly, “Grandma, don’t worry, now it’s different from before. It’s said on the radio, Some people get rich first,'This is a policy encouraged by the state and will not be arrested.'

Even so, Hongfen Sun is still a little worried, "Then let Koizumi go with you. He is a boy. If something happens, I can take care of him."

"Yes, I will protect you." Sun Quan responded.

The matter of knitting gloves is so settled.

Jiang Mu did not give up and continued to learn, but the facts proved that she may really have no talent in this aspect, even a boy like Sun Quan.

He used the old needles at home, and in half a day, from unskilled to skilled, the simplest glove with thumb and palm separated, he succeeded three pairs.

Looking at Jiang Mu again, he finally finished knitting the part of his palm, but one hole on the left and the other on the right. The wool in her hand was tossed and looked unlike by her. In the end, even Grandpa Sun couldn’t see it and took her needle. Began to knit flexibly.

It turned out that Grandpa Sun had also worked in a textile factory before, and he was very experienced.

Jiang Mu hurriedly left work, put the knitted hand suit into his school bag, and spent half an hour on the bus with Sun Quan to an electronic parts factory.

This is a T-shaped intersection. Both sides of the street are not lively. There are several small restaurants, newsstands and grocery stores.

Jiang Mu chose a place on the side of the road, spread a long light blue cloth, and put the gloves away.

"Can this work? Will anyone buy it?" Sun Quan looked around, no one was paying attention to them, he was very nervous.

In fact, Jiang Mu didn't have much in her heart. Although she had planned well, this was the first time she sold something in her two lifetimes.

However, it's one thing to be nervous, and you still have to be strained.

Jiang Mu smiled confidently, "Don't worry, it's up to your sister!"

The iron fence gate was pushed open, and groups of workers rushed out of the factory, some pushing bicycles, some walking, and the street instantly became lively.
