Telegrams were the fastest method of communication these days. The Lu parents received the telegram the next day. The Lu parents had only been reinstated last year. They heard that their son had a partner in the countryside. Perhaps the 200 yuan was for him. If he asked his son for money before he got married, he would probably not be a good person in the future.
Mother Lu said to Father Lu with a cold face," This little girl is not suitable for our son. She's not even married yet and she wants money. She doesn't even know the rules. She probably won't know her limits when she enters the family in the future."”
Father Lu nodded in agreement.
'Son, you're too young. The countryside can't stop you.'
However, since their son had spoken, they couldn't refuse. They could only borrow money and mail it over with 200 yuan.
With Lu Zhou's help, two hundred yuan was handed over to Old Lady Cai on the third morning.
Feng Ya's granddaughter was really capable. She got the money so quickly.
Looking at the brand new 200 yuan, he had never seen so much money in his life. It was a pity that he had to give it to that little b * tch.
She counted the money in her hand and wished she could spend a few more days with it.
It wasn't until the sky turned dark that Zhou Fuqing sent someone to rush her. Only then did she ask Cai Lao Er to send the money to the Zhou family.
Cai Lao 'er walked into the house and saw the Zhou family eating pork. He wanted to make things difficult for him, but Zhou Shenglai could only obediently give him the money when he saw his cowardice.
Unfortunately, Zhou Shenglai did not even look at him.
What's so good about Zhou Shenglai? He's just a reform through labor. Perhaps one day, he would enter again.
He was thinking about kicking down someone's door.
A woman said," Which blind person dares to kick our door? Do you want to die?”
Cai Lao 'er was already furious. Now, he had to vent his anger. He pressed the person on the ground and beat him up. After teaching him a lesson, he left.
The woman on the ground rolled and crawled to find her man.
Zhou Sheng came to the Zhou family and handed the money to Cai An 'an." Sister-in-law trusts you now. You should keep this money."”
Cai Anan took out 100 yuan and handed it to him." Uncle, this 100 yuan is for you. Thank you for backing us up."”
Zhou Shenglai waved his hand." No need. I'm full. I'll leave first."”After saying that, he put down his bowl and chopsticks and left in a hurry.
Seeing that Zhou Shenglai had left, Cai Anan said helplessly," Mom, keep this money.”
Xue Guixiang looked at the money handed over and quickly refused.
Cai Anan saw this and deliberately provoked him." Ah, if you don't take this money, are you not treating me as a family?”
"Anan, what are you saying? Then I'll keep it."
"Alright."
In the evening, Xue Guixiang put the money in a jar and pressed a board on it before she felt at ease.
In the blink of an eye, ten days had passed. It was time for Cai Fengya to go to university, but the Cai family could not afford to hold a graduation banquet, so they could only buy some groceries to appease the higher-ups.
Zhou Fuqing brought the head of the village and the leader of the county education bureau over. Although he didn't like the Cai family, at least Cai Fengya was the only university student in the village. As the village head, he could handle it.
The leader gave Cai Fengya the gift he had brought and said some encouraging words. There were even newspaper reporters taking notes at the side.
After the farewell ceremony, it was time for the graduation banquet. The old woman had already prepared the dishes with her daughters-in-law. When the leaders saw that there were only two plates of bean sprouts and two plates of cabbage on the table, their expressions became extremely interesting.
Old Lady Cai thought that she was done for. She had wanted to use this opportunity to establish a relationship with the township head, but now, not only did she fail to establish a relationship, but she had also offended him.
After Zhou Fuqing sent the leader off, he came back and lectured her. He thought that she did not understand the situation and should not be so stingy that she could not even bear to give the leader a decent table of dishes to eat.
Old Lady Cai thought to herself,'If it weren't for you, this damned old bastard, who took 300 yuan from me, how could I be so poor?'!
However, what happened last time left her with a lingering fear. She was still afraid and hated Zhou Fuqing. She did not dare to say anything and could only be scolded like a grandson.
Zhou Fuqing left after lecturing the old woman.
This Old Lady Cai really couldn't recognize the truth.
Cai Anan had been collecting pears for more than ten days, twice a day, and had earned more than 500 yuan. She planned to stop in the next few days because the pears had already reached maturity. Some of the owners planned to pick pears and give them to their relatives.
These days, she had become more familiar with Li Xiang. On the last day of the pear delivery, she wanted to invite Li Xiang to a state-owned restaurant in the county town for dinner.
Li Xiang refused for a while, but he couldn't refuse before agreeing. Coincidentally, the factory's finances were tight these few days, and the pears that were delivered a few days later had not been paid yet. He promised Cai Anan that he would take the money from the finance department at noon and bring them over.
Cai Anan told him that she would meet him at the Red Star Hotel at noon, so she took Zhou Jin away. It was only ten in the morning, and there was a department store near the state-owned hotel. She took Zhou Jin to the building.
Zhou Jin was tall and handsome, but because his family was poor, his clothes were patched and his pants were short.
After picking at the counter for a while, she took a fancy to a blue and white striped T-shirt. It was made of pure cotton and felt very good to the touch. The stripes were the most popular design this year. Zhou Jin would definitely look very handsome in it.
She asked the salesperson to take out the T-shirt and compared it to Zhou Jin's body. She was very satisfied. However, just as she was about to buy it, a woman with curly hair suddenly came over and said that she wanted to buy a piece of clothing like this.
The salesperson explained that this was this year's new style. The clothes sold very quickly and there was only one left. She asked the woman to come back a few days later.
The woman glanced at Cai Anan, who was dressed in a rustic manner, and said disdainfully.
"It hasn't been sold yet. The clothes will belong to whoever pays for them.”
Cai Anan said,"I like this dress. I'll pay for it immediately."”
"You? Do you know how much these clothes cost? Can you afford them?”The woman's attitude was arrogant and her tone was extremely arrogant.
Cai Anan almost laughed out of anger. It seemed that such arrogant and low-IQ idiots existed in any era. She couldn't be bothered with such idiots and asked the salesperson directly,"Comrade, how much are these clothes?"
"Thirteen for one."”
The curly-haired woman snorted. Her man's salary was considered high, but it was only about 30 yuan a month. She had to grit her teeth to buy this dress, not to mention that this country bumpkin was wearing such tattered clothes and a pair of big flowery shoes. Such a country bumpkin probably couldn't even fork out 3 yuan, let alone 13 yuan!
She grabbed the clothes from Cai Anan's hands without any explanation."If you can't afford it, don't buy it. Don't dirty your clothes.”
Cai An 'an originally didn't want to bother with this guy, but this idiot had barged in head-on. What could she do?
"Who says I can't afford it?" she said lightly.”
The curly-haired woman thought that she had encountered a lunatic and looked at Cai Anan as if she was looking at a fool."You? It's one thing for people like you to walk around the building and see the world, but who would believe that you could afford such expensive clothes?!”
Cai Anan was not angry. She took out a wad of money and slapped it on the counter."The bill, please."
The curly-haired woman was stunned. She didn't expect this country bumpkin to be able to take out so much money, and it was all five yuan bills. It looked like there were at least fifty yuan!
The salesperson snatched the clothes from the curly-haired woman, wrapped them carefully, and handed them to Cai Anan.
Unexpectedly, Cai Anan suddenly took back the money on the counter and did not take the clothes."Forget it, I don't want it. I don't like dirty clothes that have been touched by others.”
The curly-haired woman flew into a rage out of humiliation. Her man held power in his hands. No matter where he went, she was the object of flattery. Who dared to be so unreasonable to her? This little girl, who hadn't even washed her hands, actually thought that she was dirty!
The woman gritted her teeth and said hatefully,"Just you wait."”With that, she stomped off in her high heels.
Cai Anan didn't really want to buy it. She just had to wash the dirty clothes. She just couldn't stand the curly-haired woman's arrogance. She didn't cause trouble, but if someone bullied her, she would retaliate.
After buying the shirt, she brought Zhou Jin to the counter where she sold cloth and pulled a few feet of cloth, planning to make a pair of pants for him. After strolling around the first floor, she went to the second floor for a while. It was not until the clock of the department store was almost twelve that she brought Zhou Jin to the restaurant.
