I almost forgot, this sister-in-law has an eye for money, and everything can be related to losing money and making gains.
He felt a sense of powerlessness in his heart: "How about waiting for your second sister to come back and ask her opinion?"
“No need to ask, take the high school entrance examination.”
Xu Yin came back from the fields. When she got home, she heard her little sister’s complaints and gave her straightforward advice.
“Mother!”
“Mother!”
When the two brothers Jin Dun'er and Yin Dun'er saw their mother coming back, they abandoned their father who had been accompanying them all morning. They rushed forward to greet her and rushed into Xu Yin's arms.
Xu Yin took off her straw hat and kissed the two brothers: "Be good! Mom, talk to your aunt for a while."
She took the towel and water glass handed over by Xu Chengjin, wiped her face, drank the water and said to her younger sister:
“The majors in technical secondary schools are limited. I have looked at them and they are not very suitable for you. It is better to take the high school entrance examination and choose a major that is more suitable for you in university in the future.”
Xu Lan pursed her lips: "High school plus college, that's a lot of money!"
"Did you ask me to pay for it? Aren't your brother-in-law and I the ones paying for it? We didn't say anything, so just keep studying for me! When you choose a major in the college entrance examination, you can then think about your favorite major, whether you want to act or do something Business is up to you."
Xu Lan was confused when she heard this: "Why can I only choose between acting and business? I can't choose anything else? I don't like these two majors."
Xu Yin: “…”
Oh, because I think you are good at two things: one is a drama queen, and the other is an expert at making money.
Xu Lan asked with great interest: "Is there any major that teaches people how to make money? I want to learn that."
"Yes." Xu Chengjin said thoughtfully, "Finance. After the college entrance examination resumed, enrollment for this major has restarted."
Xu Lan immediately said: "Then I choose finance!"
Xu Yin: “…”
Make it as if you are not preparing for the high school entrance examination, but are about to take the college entrance examination.
Xu Lan has since regarded finance as her ultimate goal.
The profession of teaching people to make money seems to her to be an extremely attractive job, and it must be very popular!
With her current results, her brother-in-law said it was hard to say whether she would be able to pass the exam, so she worked hard to catch up.
In the past few days before the high school entrance examination, I held a book in my hand every day and memorized the text while squatting on the toilet.
One day Chen Huilan saw that she had not come out after squatting for nearly two hours. She thought she had fallen into the latrine. She was so frightened that she hurriedly opened the curtain and shouted: "Lanlan..."
I saw this girl squatting on the latrine, writing hard and writing exercises!
…”
Does it smell particularly good here? Can it stimulate people to enlightenment?
In any case, majoring in finance has become Xu Lan’s clear goal.
For this goal, she could even give up her favorite braised pork.
"Second sister, from now on, don't make braised pork and let me lead the school to improve the food. Save the money on the meat. I'm afraid it will cost a lot of tuition to major in finance in the future. For majors that teach people to make money, the tuition is not cheap! Otherwise! Which teacher is willing to teach! He will teach his disciples to starve the master to death!"
Xu Yin: “…”
However, this girl is really hardworking.
In the high school entrance examination, she ranked first in Hongqi Commune and was admitted to the only key high school in the county. She is still working hard towards her life goals...
Xu Yin and her husband looked at each other and smiled.
"Dad, the summer harvest is about to begin, and the children will trouble you again." "Mother, thank you for your hard work. I'll give you a shoulder rub."
“I’ll squeeze my mother’s shoulders!”
“I’ll give my mother a slap on the back!”
After a while, the two little ones pushed away their father in disgust:
"Dad, you're pinching me wrong. Look at me, look at me. Should I pinch you like this? Do you understand? Oh, forget it. You should go ahead and translate your manuscript. Don't disturb me and Yin Dun'er to pinch my mother's shoulders. Mother. You've been working hard, dad, please don't interrupt..."
…”
Is his status in this family already so low?
Xu Yin smiled and fell on the bed.
Outside the window, the sun is dazzling.
But not as bright as her smile.
He lowered his head and brushed her sensitive earlobe with his hot lips: "My wife, it's time to give birth to a baby."
I want a little girl in a cotton-padded jacket who looks very much like her.
…
Three years later-
“Third uncle!”
Xu Yuanyuan was riding a bicycle with her three-year-old daughter in the back seat, returning to her old house to get something.
From her second marriage until now, she has been living in a welfare house allocated by her husband's work unit.
It was a single room in the Tongzi Building, a total of one room. The cooking was done on a table in the corridor, so there was no storage room for her to store sundries.
Ever since her mother-in-law broke up with Factory Manager Guo, her father’s salary has not been raised, and he has not been able to receive housing benefits. He still lives in a cramped employee dormitory.
Her brother's two children often stay with their parents, so that there is no room for a bed for her, a married woman, and there is no room for her to store sundries.
As a last resort, I had to take the thick quilts, thick clothes and some miscellaneous things that were not used in the summer to the old house of the Seven Star Brigade, and come back to get them when they were needed.
Xu Laosan was walking with his pink and tender granddaughter in his arms. When he heard the ringing of a bicycle bell, he turned around and saw that it was his niece. He said cheerfully: "It's Yuanyuan. Are you bringing your daughter back to see your grandparents?"
Xu Yuanyuan: “…”
Does she dare to say otherwise? He responded wholeheartedly.
At this time, a group of villagers came from the field and greeted Xu Laosan from afar:
“Lao San, I heard that your family Yinyin is looking for a homestead from the brigade to expand and build a building? Oh, this is the first one in a radius of ten miles. Lao San, you are lucky!”
“Lao San, are your peach trees really so profitable?”
“That goes without saying! Didn’t you see several purchasers from public institutions driving tractors directly to your door? I heard that they almost got into a fight over a basket of peaches. Is that true?”
Xu Laosan changed his arms to hold his granddaughter, and answered with a smile: "A fight? No such thing! But robbing peaches is real. Who made my Yin Yin's peaches praised by the leading cadres in Beijing? , and it even appeared in the national agricultural newspaper! Many units want it, but the total quantity is only that, so they start to grab it..."
"Yin Yin, this kid is really capable! That mountainous area was so barren back then. No matter how much fertilizer you applied, it was useless. There were too many stones and little mud, so you couldn't grow good crops at all. I didn't expect that Yin Yin would plant it on her hands. Peaches have been grown for tens of thousands of households, which makes us old-timers ashamed..."
Although the Xu family is very tight-lipped, in recent years, Xu Laosan is not as showy as before, and the number of times he goes to the big banyan tree at the entrance of the village is also less. He said that he had to go to Taolin to work during the day, and after work he had to take care of his grandson and granddaughter, so he didn't have time to chat.
But anyone with a discerning eye can't tell: Xu Yin has sold a lot of peaches in the past two years, not to mention the three acres of inferior paddy fields. I don't know how she improved it and actually raised fish in the paddy fields. Shrimp, the rice grown has plump grains, and the fish and shrimp raised are plump and tender.
I'm afraid I've already earned ten thousand yuan.
Otherwise, can we afford to buy a bicycle and build a two-story house with four large rooms?
Xu Laosan smiled and waved his hands, saying a few words of modesty.
