I don¡¯t usually smoke in Jiangbian. In the past, eating was a problem. How could I have spare money to buy cigarettes? Seeing the village party secretary hand over a good cigarette, Jiang Bian took it.
Li Changdong quickly lit the lighter again, intending to light a cigarette for Jiangbian himself.
When Jiangbian saw how polite Li Changdong was, he hurriedly held the cigarette between his two fingers and said, "Zhishu Li, Secretary Li, I, I can do it myself."
"Come on, come on, you're welcome. Uncle Li should thank you! If it weren't for you, our rose wouldn't have been able to come up yesterday. Young man, that's great." Li Changdong resolutely lit the cigarette by the river with his own hands.
Jiang Bian had no choice but to light up the cigarette and took a strong puff. A large amount of smoke was sucked into his lungs. Jiang Bian had only smoked a few times, and he couldn't bear it anymore. He immediately choked violently.
"You don't know how to smoke, what can you charge for?" Li Yueji rolled her eyes at Jiangbian. She didn't have much favorable impressions of smoking.
But Li Yueji¡¯s natural expression surprised Li Changdong. Why was this expression so similar to when Tao Xiutian looked at him? Didn't your daughter develop feelings for her after she was saved by this young hero named Jiang? This needs to be properly prevented.
Li Changdong knows the family situation in Jiangbian clearly. If the family situation in Jiangbian is a little better, and the people are more diligent, and the two of them really get along, Li Changdong will not be unable to accept it. The key is Jiangbian. The situation at home is as bad as it gets, and he is also a well-known lazy guy in the village. Even at a young age, I don't like to work, so I know how to do some crooked things. no! I have to make a careful calculation with my mother-in-law.
Thinking of this, Li Changdong exchanged a few pleasantries, walked into the kitchen, and talked to his mother-in-law.
As soon as Li Changdong left, Li Yueji and Jiang Bian were the only two people left in the hall. Jiang Bian usually talks a lot, but when he is with Li Yueji, he can never find a topic to talk about. Jiang Bian felt that he and Li Yueji were from two different worlds and could not find anything in common. It's not as easy as when you are with Liu Huijun. Even catching a loach can trigger the topic of passing on the family line.
Li Yueji didn¡¯t know what to say to Jiangbian. The two of them have had different life trajectories since they were in junior high school. Naturally, they are somewhat incompatible with each other. But this disaster brought the two people together.
"Did you go to town to sell fish that day?" Li Yueji suddenly found the topic.
Jiangbian naturally knew that Li Yueji was referring to the first time he went back to sell fish, which happened to coincide with Li Yueji's return to school.
"Yes. But that was my first time selling fish."
"Really? How was it? I must have sold it for a lot of money!" Li Yueji became interested.
"It's not bad. I was lucky. I met someone who collects wild fish. The price was not bad." Jiangbian smiled slightly. When it comes to fish, Jiangbian¡¯s self-confidence seems to have improved a lot.
Li Yueji's interest also increased, and the girl's curiosity to get to the bottom of it also aroused, "Tell me, how much did it sell for that day?"
Jiangbian didn't hide anything, "It's okay, I bought more than two thousand. Mainly because the two old turtles are valuable."
Li Yueji didn't have much financial acumen. At first, she thought it would be good if she could sell it for one or two hundred yuan, but she didn't expect that Jiangbian could earn so much at a time. "So much? You selling fish once is more than my monthly salary." !¡±
Teachers¡¯ salaries are not very high, especially for a young teacher like Li Yueji, who has not worked for a long time and has a low professional title. After deducting some miscellaneous fees, the remaining salary is only more than a thousand yuan.
Fortunately, the consumption in the town is not very high. Li Yueji can barely make ends meet by going home for a few days every month.
"How can it be possible? This time, I will make more money. I can't sell too many turtles. Without the turtles, my income will be much less. It would be great to have a few hundred yuan."
"That's not bad! If you go there every few days, you can earn a lot of money in a month. In a year or two, you can build a house!" Li Yueji said.
Jiangbian nodded, "That's what I say. Where can I have better teachers like you, with guaranteed harvests despite droughts and floods, two days off a week, and winter and summer vacations, so the days are moist!"
Li Yueji glanced at the kitchen and lowered her voice a little, "Okay, let me tell you, I want to go out to work. Many of my classmates quit their jobs and went to the coast to develop. It took less than a year. , several classmates have bought cars and houses! I also want to go out."
Li Yueji was afraid that her parents would hear it, knowing that even this job, which was not salty or not, was only obtained by Li Changdong at the expense of his old job. If he knew that Li Yueji wanted to resign and go work, Li Changdong would go crazy.
"You have such a good job and you still want to resign? No one else would even think about it."?. You see, you are now working in the town and have become an out-and-out city citizen. If you go to work, wouldn't you be no different from us farmers? " Jiangbian said.
"You can't say that. The farmers who are doing well now are no worse than the people in the city. Aren't there also difficulties in the city? I think people should boldly go out and develop while they are young. In fact, you are the same, If you have good fishing skills, wouldn't it be better if you go to a more developed place? For example, if you just rent a house in the town and go fishing in the Lujiang River every day, wouldn't it be more convenient to sell fish? Isn¡¯t the monthly income higher?¡± Li Yueji said.
Jiang Bian looked at Li Yueji strangely. It was not that what Li Yueji said gave him a huge impact, but that he did not expect that such a handsome person like Li Yueji would have so many profit-seeking ideas. So ambitious. According to Jiang Bian's idea, people like Li Yueji should be the kind of fairy who doesn't eat the fireworks of the world.
"Why are you looking at me like that? Don't you know me? Or are you moved by what I said?" Li Yueji looked at herself blankly by the river and said with a smile.
Jiangbian shook his head, "No, I haven't thought about it yet. I want to fish at home first. A few days ago, I dug a pond at home and try to raise fish first. I will wait and see."
Li Yueji looked at the riverside with some regret, "That's okay, but the transportation in our mountain village is a bit inconvenient. It's really inconvenient for you to go back and forth to sell fish! My dad told me to go home as little as possible in the future. It's really not safe to take a boat. .¡±
"It's okay! It won't be a problem if I fall into the sea." Jiang Bian laughed.
Li Yueji's face suddenly turned red, and she remembered the time when Jiangbian saved herself from the bottom of the water, "Yes, you are good at water."
The kitchen of Li Yueji's house was filled with heat.
Tao Xiutian saw Li Changdong walking in and said with a smile, "I don't see you coming in usually. Why don't you go outside to accompany the guests today? Why did you come in?"
Li Changdong smiled awkwardly, then leaned into Tao Xiutian's ear, about to speak.
Unexpectedly, Tao Xiutian had a misunderstanding, "What are you doing, you rude person? Didn't you see that I was busy? Go out and accompany the guests quickly, and don't come here to cause trouble."
"You bitch! I have something to tell you!"
"What are you talking about? You can't say it properly." Tao Xiutian didn't believe Li Changdong. In fact, she didn't dislike Li Changdong at all. When she first followed this humble guy, she just thought he was interesting. @ws
