Chapter 74 074: Hiring a car
The next day.
Getting up early in the morning, Wang Tianxiao first explained to Wang Tiancheng the things to pay attention to when going to the mountains, and asked him to bring that old-fashioned gun in case of emergency, and not to go to the deep mountains.
It's okay during the day, and there will be no danger.
When talking to Wang Tiancheng, Wang Tianxin looked envious, thinking that Brother Wu would be able to go to the mountains, and he had to struggle with his studies all day, which was really boring.
But Wang Tianxiao thought that he would have a chance in the future and live with him in the mountains during the holidays.
Back to the cave dwelling, he followed his wife's instructions to pack the clothes, toiletries, and some diapers his wife had prepared for the children, and put them in a huge canvas bag.
Then I prepared all kinds of clothes for my daughter.
The daughter must be taken with her. Although she can be placed with the mother temporarily, she is still worried that the mother will not be able to take care of her.
Every day, Tianer and Hongwei have to be watched by their mother, and their younger sister Xiaozhu is only twelve years old. She is still a child, and her mother has enough to worry about.
Moreover, he was still worried about the third and fourth families.
He is ready to move to the mountains after his wife gives birth, and he will not return to the pit yard unless something happens to his mother.
Out of sight, out of mind, being with these people all the time, it's terribly annoying.
He wants to live a good life, but some people are like flies, and it is always difficult for people to live.
After packing up, he went out to find Liu Xiangrui.
In the entire village, only his family owns a tractor, so they can only find him.
It is very difficult to find a car in this era. Standing on the road, you may not be able to wait for a car all day.
Even if there were, they would be driven by rich or expensive people.
Totally unusable.
Unlike the taxis and online car-hailing that are all over the streets in the later generations, it is not to mention how convenient it is.
Wang Tianxiao, as a person who has experienced the development of science and technology in later generations, can most appreciate the impact of technology on people's living habits.
I also understand that if people want to live a good life, they should continue to improve and develop as much as possible, and create more things, so that everyone can have more.
Just keep a little profit in front of you, no matter how you distribute it, you won't get much.
When he went to find Liu Xiangrui, Liu Xiangrui was not there, but his father Liu Jiqing was.
Liu Jiqing is the Party Secretary of Wangjia Village, and he has been there for some years.
It is reasonable to say that more than half of the people in Wangjia Village are surnamed Wang, and the village party secretary should also be surnamed Wang. Why is a person surnamed Liu doing it?
Actually, there is another story.
When Liu Jiqing was a child, his parents were poor, so he was given to a family named Liu as a son, so the surname was changed to Liu.
Later, his adoptive parents died one after another, and Liu Jiqing returned to his hometown, but because of the kindness of his adoptive parents, his surname was not changed to the original Wang surname, but remained Liu surname.
From this incident, it can be seen that Liu Jiqing is still a conscientious person.
Otherwise, there is no way to work in the village for so long.
Liu Jiqing is shearing sheep in the yard.
There are quite a lot of people raising sheep in this era. Not only can mutton be eaten, but sheep can also be sheared and sold. But the number of sheep gradually decreased in later generations, and most farmers tended to raise goats.
"Uncle Liu, I called back a long time ago, isn't it inconvenient for my wife and children at home."
"Then your iron rice bowl?"
"An iron rice bowl, it's just a broken rice bowl," Wang Tianxiao smiled, "I'm still in the work unit, but I just came back to our Yangziling, and I will look at the mountains here from now on."
"Still a ranger, right?"
"That's right, it's still in the mountains."
"That's a good relationship. At least we don't have to run so far. Our place is definitely much better than the big mountain in Ziwuling. Although it is also a mountain here, it is very close to the plain after all. It is convenient for you to go anywhere."
"Well, that's the truth."
"Then work hard here, where the water and soil don't support people, anyway, you are from us."
"Haha, that's it, that's it, but when I want to build a Zhuangzi, you have to hold your hands high and give me a good Zhuangzi base."
"No problem, just follow the rules."
Liu Jiqing nodded in agreement, then suddenly remembered, and asked, "By the way, is that why you came here today?"
"Oh, no, I'm here to find Xiangrui. My wife is going to give birth in two days, and I want him to take me to the hospital."
"Why do you need to go to a hospital? Isn't it different to have a baby at home?" Liu Jiqing also had a traditional way of thinking, thinking that this kind of thing doesn't need to go to the hospital.
"Baby's mother is not in good health, just in case, stay in the hospital and feel at ease."
"That's okay, that's fine," Liu Jiqing nodded, and said, "Fortunately, your first child is a girl, so having a second child complies with the regulations, or you will have to pay a fine."
"I know."
Wang Tianxiao thought of the changes in the policies of later generations, and looked at the current situation, and found it a bit absurd, but since he is in this era, he must still follow the pace of this era.
Even if you pay a fine, it's nothing. For him now, it's not a big deal.
"Okay, after the baby is born, I'll see if I can arrange a household registration. It just so happens that the census is going on recently, so we did it together."
"Thank you so much, Uncle Liu," Wang Tianxiao said gratefully, "When I finish my work, I will go to the mountains and bring you some wild animals, so that you can enjoy your mouth."
Liu Jiqing knew that Wang Tianxiao must have some hunting skills after working in the mountains for a long time, so he didn't refuse, and accepted it with a smile.
At this time, Liu Xiangrui came back with a shovel on his shoulders. He was surprised to see Wang Tianxiao. The two met yesterday, but they didn't expect to come to him again today.
"Tianxiao, what's the matter, is there something else?"
"Haha, that's not true, this time it's pulling people."
Wang Tianxiao told Liu Xiangrui about his intention in the future, and asked how much Liu Xiangrui needed.
Liu Xiangrui patted his chest after listening, "Then how much money do you need? We are old classmates. It doesn't cost much to send your wife to the hospital. Just pay it on me."
"That's no good, your car doesn't need diesel to go out, how can it cost you money."
"See how you're still polite. Who do you think I am, Liu Xiangrui? I'm sure I can help with this."
"I'm sorry."
"Tianxiao, just listen to our family Xiangrui, don't be so polite, it doesn't take much fuel to send someone over."
Hearing this, Wang Tianxiao thought for a while and said, "Let's do this. I'll give Uncle and Xiangrui two cigarettes for you to smoke at the supply and marketing cooperative. I'll be the first to talk. It's not gas money, it's just a celebration money. If you are refusing my son's festive cigarettes, then you are looking down on me."
Today is still three shifts
