Rebirth of the 90s: Dear Cub
Chapter 26: These two bastards are here again
Under the shade of the trees on the roadside, there was already a small line of citizens lining up.
Mr. Dong sat on a small bamboo chair, picked up the ledger, tapped on the calculator, wrote down all the amounts to be paid, and started rolling the reels and paying.
The most exciting moment has arrived.
Qi Qi clenched his hands with his small hands and stomped his feet in joy.
Song Yueliang and Dong Wangshu arrived at the village of Detaoxi, and happened to see this scene.
The little baby was squeezed together with some radish heads, his little face flushed red with excitement, and he grinned, showing his cute teeth.
"So many people? Mr. Dong seems to be distributing money." At the co-pilot, Dong Wangshu reached out to open the door and got out of the car, wanting to join in the fun, "We came on time. "
Song Yueliang held back her movement, "Wait a moment, wait until the work there is done before going down."
"It's here, why wait?" Dong Wangshu did not understand, so he followed Song Yueliang's line of sight and saw the little girl stomping her little legs, "..."
The last time we met was at our wholesale market, at that moment, Qiqi gave Dong Wangshu the impression that she was shy and gentle, like mimosa.
I didn't expect to see each other again, and I would see the cute side of the little baby, his eyes so bright that an RMB symbol appeared.
"Little money fan, here it is." He laughed and teased.
Song Yueliang did not speak, her eyes continued to stare at the little girl.
Huicheng was not far from Hagilu City, and it took over an hour to drive alone.
But Song Yueliang needed another full hour to travel from the city to Taoxi Village.
The mountain road to the village was not easy to walk, and because I was not used to the terrain, I went the wrong way.
The exhaustion caused by the uneven travel disappeared strangely as he looked at the little doll.
The trucking team at the village entrance blocked their view, and everyone's attention was fixed elsewhere, so no one noticed that there was an additional car next to the truck team.
Mr. Dong had finished counting the account books and the first wave of money, he looked at the increasingly long queue in front of him, and finally glanced at Xiao Qiqi and the others, and said, "Come, come on, send money!"
"Zhang Xifeng, sweet potato is 7123 catties, and the payment is 213 yuan and 70 cents!"
Zhang Xifeng was first, and when he heard the payment amount, he was so excited that he was a little bored.
When Master Dong put the calculated money into his hands, his hands were still trembling.
"Grandmother, we got over two hundred yuan!" Nested near a heat source near her feet, the little baby hugged her legs, her eyes bowed to the crescent moon, "Many!"
Zhang Xifeng brought the baby aside, knelt down and hugged the baby tightly, then said tremblingly, "Yes, more than ever."
The weather was hot, and uncomfortable to embrace, but Qiqi did not resist, wrapping her little arms around the old woman's neck, smiling shyly.
Mother-in-law was very happy, so Qiqi was even happier.
The payments there are still ongoing.
"Li Shuigen, 9,960 kati sweet potato, 4,008 watermelons, the solution is 2,302 yuan and 80 cents!"
"Li Dongsheng, 10,090 kati sweet potato, 3,976 watermelon, the solution is 2,283 yuan and 80 cents!"
"Chen Jianhe ... made a payment of 2,657 yuan and 30 cents!"
…
Except for Zhang Xifeng's family, almost all the households in the village that planted a lot of watermelon had settled for more than 2,000 yuan.
This time there were no cheers at the scene. The person whose name was called to take money went to the side of the road and squatted silently after receiving the money. No one left immediately, and no one spoke.
Many people saw a thick stack of banknotes in their hands, ranging from a hundred to a few pennies in fractions, holding a heavy weight in their hands.
Many people were crying, silently, tears falling drop by drop on the paper money.
After decades of bending their waists, to support their families, they humble themselves to dust, to this day, they finally lift their waists and gasp for breath.
There's hope.
After crying, the faces that were still stained with tears returned a dazzling smile.
Smiling so loud, so carefree and heroic that it dimmed the sun.
Zhang Xifeng was still holding Qiqi in his arms, his wrinkled face resting on the little shoulder of the baby, his eyes were red, but there was a deep smile frown at the end of his eyes.
Now, they're really alive.
"Mother-in-law, next year I will help you grow watermelon, so that the mother-in-law can make more money, and also make two thousand yuan." Her shoulders were wet, and Qi Qi thought her mother - a sad old and lower income than other families, so she comforted clumsily, "Mother-in-law, don't be sad."
Zhang Xifeng stood up straight, away from the baby, laughing and crying, "Fool baby, mother-in-law is not sad. Although other families earn more, other families have large populations. There are only two people in our family, so the money we earn doesn't count." Less, and you forget, there's still two pigs in the family that haven't been sold, and that's the big head of our family."
Qiqi thought for a moment, "Then next year our family will raise two more pigs, and I will help my mother-in-law raise them!"
He was very good at mowing pig grass, and had no problem raising a few more pigs.
Now that her mother-in-law wanted to support her, she had to spend more money than before, she had to help her mother-in-law earn money.
…
The goods of dozens of households in a village were huge, and they would not be able to receive everything in a short period of time.
After the villagers calmed down a little, they spontaneously helped pack the yams and watermelons registered into boxes and trucks, finally the employees at the wholesale market could rest and rest.
Qiqi found work for herself again, bringing Huazi, Goudan, and the other children in the village, and ran all over the field to deliver water and food to the employees and uncles, like a little bee that can't stop.
Among the group of children, she was the youngest, the most shy, but the most nimble at doing things.
There was constant conversation and laughter, and the atmosphere was harmonious and pleasant.
Song Yueliang never liked noise, but at this moment, she felt like mingling.
Sitting here seems too quiet.
"Get out of the car," he said, extending his hand to open the car door, as a motorcycle drove from behind and sped away.
Dong Wangshu was shocked and almost went abroad to scold him.
Fortunately, the door had not been opened, otherwise there would have been an accident.
Song Yueliang frowned and looked up.
There, the laughter stopped suddenly as the motorcycle broke into it.
When Qiqi saw that person coming, her face increasingly changed, as if she was facing a great enemy.
Goudan looked at the two on the motorcycle and gritted his teeth, "These two bastards are here again!"
Huazi also said angrily, "The suspect in our village was almost destroyed last night, and they did! It must be bad to come here now!"
The two boys looked at each other, then walked away quietly, and picked up Xiao Qiqi when they left.
"What are you doing here?" The old village chief had already stepped out, glaring at Wang Jianzhong's uncle and nephew.
The residents of Taoxi Village also approached the old village chief one after another, all of them wary.
The motorbike stopped in front of the truck, and Wang Jianzhong got out of the car, pretending not to see the hostility in the eyes of the people in Taoxi Village, and stepped forward with a laugh, "Brother Li, everyone, is, don't be nervous, I'm just here to greet acquaintances.
