Back to 90s she just wants to get rich

Chapter 426 425. Machismo? !

"Hey, mom, how much red envelopes did you pack for each of them?" Xiang Jin asked suddenly after the car drove a certain distance.

Her mother turned her head and said, "Three hundred, what's the matter? Your cousin named Yang Hui and Yang Zhao's cousin are both that old, so the one or two hundred is not worth it.

The other two cousins ​​were awarded three hundred, so the other two cousins ​​plus your sister will always be awarded another number, right?This makes your second aunt and second aunt see it and say that we treat each other more favorably than others.So I sealed all three hundred. "

Xiang Jin said, "Oh, it's nothing, it's just that my grandparents gave me [-], and my two uncles gave me [-]."

"Oh, there are so many? Then I was young master Feng just now? What should I do?" Her mother's brows furrowed all of a sudden.

Xiang Jin said, "No, don't worry too much, the New Year's red envelopes in our countryside are not that high, usually tens of one hundred yuan, and those one hundred yuan are from wealthy families. In some cases, and if the relationship between relatives is particularly good, only one hundred yuan will be given to your child.

My situation is a bit special. My uncles and aunts have always thought that the food shop in their family can be opened, and the business is so hot every day because of me, so they gave me such a big red envelope.

What's more, they also know that I have never been short of money, so I might look down on me if I don't give it. Of course, this is their guess, it's not mine. In fact, I don't care. I don't mind if you give me a red envelope.

The third is that I have always been very kind to them, and I sincerely treat them as family and relatives, so they also sincerely treat me as family and relatives.

As for why my grandparents gave me such a big red envelope, it is purely because of their love for my granddaughter, plus their own money!My grandfather still earns tens of thousands a year from greenhouse vegetables, not to mention the chickens, ducks and pigs he raises.

So, you don't have to worry that the red envelopes they gave me are not equal to the red envelopes you gave their children, they won't mind so much.

Besides, it was you who sealed the red envelopes for their children first. It doesn't matter if you seal less first, it would be embarrassing if you seal less later.

Besides, in fact, they don’t lose money after calculation. Their family has two children. You have [-] for one person, and [-] for two people. Strictly speaking, they still earn [-]. Of course, my grandparents may have to eat. It's a shame, but they're different. "

Her mother and her father were immediately overjoyed, and her mother said, "You child, you still speak the same way."

Xiang Jin said, "Where is it? Aren't I afraid that you will feel ashamed? That's why I explained so much to you."

Xiang Jin's mother said, "Why do mom and dad feel shameful? Mom and dad are afraid that you will lose face."

"How come? I always care about the real things, so I don't pay attention to the false things, face? Face is just a cloud to me!
I think you have to rely on yourself to forge iron. If you have strength, who dares to underestimate you?Who can underestimate you? ! "

Xiang Jin's father followed and said with a proud face, "Well, you're right! It's my daughter! She speaks boldly!
That's right, only when you are strong, others will not ignore your existence, will take you seriously, and what you say will attract others' attention, and others will listen to you, and will do things according to your wishes!

As for face, some faces have to be maintained even if they are desperate, such as dignity, integrity, and reputation!It's a bit of a face, there is really no need to worry about it so much. "

"Dad, it seems that you are a person who cherishes your feathers very much?" Xiang Jin couldn't help joking.

Her dad said, "That's right? Otherwise, how do you think your dad got into this position at this age? A person's ability is one aspect, and loyalty to the party and the people is another aspect.

Some of our comrades just can’t stick to their original aspirations, forget their original aspirations, abuse and use the rights entrusted to us by the party, the country, and the people, so in the end they dragged themselves into the mud and couldn’t extricate themselves .

So Xiaojin, you and your brother must remember that there are certain things that can be done, and some things that cannot be done, even if the knife is on the neck, the things that cannot be done are still not allowed to be done. One must know how to keep oneself clean , the heart must always move forward in the direction of light, but never lose yourself! "

Xiang Jin said, "I know! Don't worry, I won't do bad things, and every penny I earn is reasonable and legal, and can withstand the verification of relevant state departments and inspection agencies.

Don't worry, I will never use the guise of you and my mother to spread the banner outside, bluff and deceive, I have to rely on my own strength to create a world of my own! "

Her dad laughed, "Mom and dad naturally believe in you! I believe that you have the ability and strength to create the life you want."

"Oh, Xiao Jin, that cousin of yours is called Yang Hui, isn't he called Yang Hui?" Xiang Jin's mother said again suddenly.

Xiang Jin sat in the back row and nodded, "Ah, yes, it's Yang Hui."

Her mother continued, "I saw that the child is about the same age as your brother, but his temper is a bit taciturn. It seems that he is not as lively as his brother. Was he originally with that temper?"

Xiang Jin said, "No, he wasn't like this before. He used to have a good temperament. Although he didn't talk much, he would never be so bored. I guess it was because he repeated his studies in the past two years. So it's a little stressful."

Her mother nodded, "Oh, that can't be done, he looks like a little old man at a young age, he doesn't have any vitality, your uncle, aunt and others put pressure on him?"

Xiang Jin shook his head, "My uncle, aunt, and the others never pressured him. Instead, the two of them would confess wherever they could, and they supported him if they wanted to repeat it.

He put such a lot of pressure on himself. Yang Hui is a bit stubborn, unwilling to admit defeat, and also a little bit good-faced.

He repeated the exam for two years, and then failed to pass the exam for two years. This year is his third year of repeating the exam. He will take the senior high school exam with his younger brother Yang Zhao. He is afraid that he will fail the exam again, so he will They are all tense, and they put themselves in a highly tense atmosphere all the time.

In fact, Yang Hui's purely psychological factors are not too hard. His usual academic performance is quite good, and he can still do well in every class test, but every time he is prone to nervousness at critical times, Then it is very easy to make mistakes.

I also told him, don't be nervous, don't be nervous, just do it as a simple test homework, but he just can't listen to it, every time it is some important exams, he will be inexplicably nervous, In fact, I know that in the final analysis, he pays too much attention to gains and losses.

Alas, I am too lazy to give him advice now, because you will never wake up a person who pretends to be asleep, no matter how much he wants to say, he will not try and correct according to your suggestion, and it is equal to zero. "

"That Yang Zhao's brain is quite flexible, isn't it?" Her mother followed and judged.

"Well, Yang Zhao's temperament is better. He is not obsessed with pursuing certain things. He is the kind of person who can do it if I can do it. It doesn't matter if I can't. His mentality should be better!"

Xiang Jin's father laughed and said, "Let nature take its course, the mentality of doing nothing and governing, don't fight or grab!"

Xiang Jin also smiled and said, "That's right! Yang Zhao is that kind of person!"

Following her mother, she asked Xiang Jin again, "Hey, Xiao Jin, what size red envelope is it appropriate for mother to give Yan Chen and another friend of yours later? These two children are their own bosses. Isn't it impossible to take it out?"

Xiang Jin said, "Oh, just seal it up, it's just a little thought, they don't care about it, you also said, they are the boss themselves, as long as you can give out more, it can be more than they have The money? It’s nothing more than the fact that we are still in the stage of studying and underage at this age. In your eyes, this stage seems to be a stage where you should receive red envelopes for the new year.”

Her father also agreed with Xiang Jin's words, "Yes, yes, yes, I think Xiao Jin is right. You don't have to stick to those formalisms, the key lies in your heart."

Then her mother nodded, "Okay, then mother will give them a seal of 660 and six yuan later, just like the seal for you. You will all take the college entrance examination this year. This is also a gift from mother to them." Best wishes!"

Xiang Jin nodded, "Okay, but you still brought so much change?"

Her mother said, "This is the advantage of working in a bank. It is convenient to exchange change."

Xiang Jin said, "Then you can help me exchange some one yuan, two yuan, five yuan, one dime, two dime, five dime, and one hundred consecutive numbers of these currencies at your bank."

Her mother laughed and said, "Why? Collecting coins?"

Xiang Jin said, "Yes, maybe in a few decades, the value of this kind of currency will appreciate like that of stamps and ancient coins. At that time, I can make another windfall."

Her father and mother laughed, and her mother just said that she was a money bag, and Xiang Jin handed the 2000 yuan lucky money red envelope she just received to her mother.

Her mother said, "No, you just keep your own money. Mom has money here, and mom will buy it for you when the time comes."

"Oh, take it," Xiang Jin directly stuffed the money into her mother's hand, "I don't need to carry so much cash with me, and I'm too lazy to deposit it in the bank. You can use the money to buy it for me." , It would be the best if there are different years, hey, there are more here, you can change a little more," she said, and took out another wad of money to give to her mother.

Her mother couldn't laugh or cry immediately, "You change so much, where will you put it? Our house is only that big?"

Xiang Jin asked, "Don't we have a safe at home?"

Her mother said, "Our family doesn't have any valuables to store, how can there be such a thing?"

"My dad, and you, don't you have any important documents that need to be placed at work?" Xiang Jin asked again.

Xiang Jin's mother said, "If your dad and I have any important matters, we will deal with them directly at the unit. If there are important documents, we will directly put them in the archives for filing." , how can I bring it home.”

"Oh, well, then you should keep the money, and I'll see when I get there."

"How much, what is this?" Her mother asked.

Xiang Jin said, "Probably more than 3000 or nearly 4000 yuan. I don't know the exact amount. You can count it yourself."

So her mother really counted, "Add the two thousand you gave me before, and the total is five thousand and four. Mom will save it for you first. You see what you want to do with the money then, you can give it to my mother." Just say it, and mother will do as you say when the time comes."

"Well, good!" Xiang Jin nodded.

Xiang Jin's father said, "You can let Xiaoxue go to the bank to rent a safe, and then store the coins she collected in that safe. Anyway, the monthly rent is not much, and it is much safer than keeping them at home."

Xiang Jin's mother said, "Oh, this one is fine, okay, Xiao Jin, mom will change it for you when I get back."

"Okay," Xiang Jin wondered whether she should also deposit the five yuan she received and the few silver and copper coins coaxed from Yan Fei into the safe in the bank.

If Grandpa Zeng and Grandma Mo really went to manage the large watermelon and fruit field for them at that time, then the things she had put in their house before could no longer be in their house.

It doesn’t seem like that’s the case to put them in the family’s compound. It is bound to find a proper place to place them, but before they are properly placed, she wants to confirm their authenticity, and don’t arrange them by herself when the time comes. It's a pile of scrap iron, so it's not worth it.

I don't know if Yan Chen's uncles and aunts have come back. If they come back, she can ask his uncle to palm her eyes to see if the thing is an antique?
About half an hour later, Xiang Jin's father's car drove into the small courtyard of Grandma Mo's house. Through the car window, Xiang Jin and the others saw another army green car parked in the small courtyard. An off-road vehicle, and that off-road vehicle was the one that Yan Chen's cousin Zeng Haoze drove back. It seemed that Yan Chen's uncle and aunt had returned.

"Oh, come up and sit, come up and sit," as soon as their car entered the small courtyard, Grandma Mo and her family came out of the house. After seeing them get off the car, everyone came out of the street The eaves greeted him.

After greeting each other and exchanging a few pleasantries, Grandma Mo and Grandpa Zeng invited them to sit up quickly.

Xiang Jin waved to her parents and said, "Go up first, I'll get those things."

Grandma Mo pretended to be displeased and raised her face, "Why did you bring a gift again, did you give it away before?"

Xiang Jin took Grandma Mo's arm and said, "The previous one represented my grandparents and aunts' wishes, and today's one is my parents' wishes."

Grandma Mo said, "Well, how much will the family share?"

Xiang Jin's mother said, "Auntie, it's not something expensive, it's just some local goods. How can people who visit relatives and friends during the Chinese New Year not bring some souvenirs?"

Grandma Mo said, "It's just you who are polite and courteous?!"

"Auntie, shall we go up and talk?" Xiang Jin's mother also went to hold Grandma Mo's arm.

"Alas, well, go up and talk, talk and talk!"

Xiang Jin opened the trunk, took out those things from inside, and then Yan Chen and Han Che who were standing aside helped her pick them up.

Several people walked on the steps, Xiang Jin asked Yan Chen, "Are your uncles and aunts back?"

Han Che turned his head and glanced at her, "Hey, how did you know that his uncle and aunt are back?" They never called her.

Xiang Jin said, "Of course it's the off-road vehicle parked in the yard. It was the one that Yan Chen's cousin drove when he came back."

"Oh, so that's the case?" Han Che suddenly understood.

Yan Chen nodded slightly, "Well, they came back yesterday, and now they are going to visit some elders in the clan."

Xiang Jin nodded, and then Han Che asked her again, "Oh, why are you here so soon? We all thought we would never see you again?"

Xiang Jin looked at them both and asked, "Why, are you going back tomorrow?"

Yan Chen said, "Come back the day after tomorrow!"

Han Che said, "Aren't you going back to school tomorrow?"

Xiang Jin said, "Yes, but I said last time that I was going to visit my grandparents. That must be to visit them before I go back to school."

Yan Chen said, "So I went to your grandparents' house at noon?"

"En!" Xiang Jin nodded.

"How are they? Are they all in good health?" Yan Chen then asked.

Xiang Jin nodded, "Well, everything is fine, very healthy!"

Back in the house, several people put down their things, and several elders were talking there, so the three of them went to the other side to talk.

Xiang Jin asked them, "Oh, are those pickled fish still pickled?"

Yan Chen said, "No more, it has been taken out to dry."

Han Che added, "It's being smoked in the tin box near the kitchen."

"The tin shed was moved there, I thought it was demolished?"

Han Che nodded and said, "It was demolished, but wouldn't it be inconvenient for us to take the fish with us then? Besides, it's not easy to smoke if it needs to be smoked in the city, so Grandpa Zeng and the others put the iron sheet in the shed and moved it there. .”

Xiang Jin said, "Why don't I smell it?"

Yan Chen said, "Have a cold?!"

Xiang Jin said, "No!"

Yan Chen said, "It may be that the fire has gone out."

So a few people went there to check, and as expected, they saw that there was no smoke at all. When they opened the iron shed to check, they saw that the cypress branches in the iron pot were still in a high pile, and they had not been burned at all. burn marks.

"It seems that the fire went out not long after it started," Xiang Jin said.

Han Che said, "Damn, are you feeling lonely?"

Xiang Jin just laughed, and then asked them, "When did you start smoking?"

Yan Chen said, "Around twelve o'clock in the morning."

"Oh, it's not been a long time." Xiang Jin squatted down and took the cypress branches out of the pot, "Does any of you have a lighter or matches?"

"I haven't," Yan Chen said.

Han Che shook his head and said, "Me neither!"

"You go and get it." Yan Chen squatted down after explaining to Han Che, "You stand aside and wait for me to light the fire, so as not to get your clothes dirty."

Xiang Jin lowered his head and glanced at the clothes on his body, "If I had known earlier, I wouldn't have worn this dress," but he continued to carefully take out those things from the pot bit by bit.

Yan Chen stared at her seriously for a moment and then said, "It looks good!"

The corners of Xiang Jin's mouth curled up, "Is that so? It was on New Year's Eve, my aunt, Ouyang Bo, and the three of us went to the commercial street in the city and they helped me choose it. .”

Yan Chen nodded, "Well, white suits you very well, and you are very suitable to wear white."

Xiang Jin said, "It's just that the clothes are too dirty."

Yan Chen said, "Indeed, from now on, I will wear less clothes of this color."

Xiang Jin nodded, "I think so too, ah, I think you've changed a bit."

Yan Chen said, "How do you say?"

Xiang Jin said, "You don't seem to be so obsessed with cleanliness recently. Look, you help Grandpa Zeng and Grandma Mo pick vegetables. You washed and marinated the fish that day, and now you're making this smoked fish again."

Yan Chen said, "Grandpa and grandma are old, I can't watch them work hard while I'm idle, can I?
And I can't let you a girl do everything, so am I still a man? "

Xiang Jin laughed when he heard his last words, "Machismo!"

Yan Chen said, "Where is machismo? You and I are the only ones who do this. Do you think I would still do this if it were someone else?"

Meeting his playful eyes, Xiang Jin was stunned for a moment, then pouted, "It feels like I took advantage of you?"

Yan Chen just laughed, "I took advantage!"

Xiang Jin was taken aback for another moment, and Yan Chen said, "Of so many fish, I have half of them."

Xiang Jin said, "That's not too bad! You go back the day after tomorrow, and when the fish is taken back, you still have to tell your family to continue drying them for a few more days? You have to dry them, otherwise they will become moldy and spoiled." "

"Yeah. I know!"

"Did Uncle Tao take the smoked bacon from last time and continue to dry it?"

"Yes! Uncle Tao said it was put in the refrigerator yesterday."

Oh, by the way, Uncle Tao is coming tomorrow? "

"No, Uncle Tao won't come. My uncle and aunt are going to visit my grandfather in the provincial capital. Han Che and I will take their car back when the time comes."

Xiang Jin nodded, "Oh, then I'm sorry, this time I won't be able to prepare food for you to bring on the road."

Yan Chen said, "It's okay, my grandma will prepare it for us then, you don't have to worry about it."

"Well," Xiang Jin nodded again, "When will Uncle Tao and the others go to Northern Xinjiang?"

"Maybe after the Lantern Festival!"

Xiang Jin said, "Then my aunt will be with them then? My aunt has already decided to resign in the next year. If we really contract out the tens of acres of sandy land, let my aunt And your grandfather and the others helped us take care of it.

At that time, Grandpa Zeng and the others will be mainly responsible for planting melons and fruits, and they can also continue to grow their mushrooms.

My aunt is in charge of sales. Let her represent us to negotiate with those in the transportation industry. My aunt has been in charge of purchasing in the unit before, and they will often negotiate with people in the transportation industry. Dealing with each other, and in fact, doing purchases and doing sales are interlinked, but one is for buying and the other is for selling, and the identities have been reversed. "

Yan Chen said, "Yes!"

Xiang Jin said, "Actually, it's not that I have to arrange for my family members to do this job, it's just that Uncle Tao is in the provincial capital after all. It's said that it can't quench thirst at a distance, but Grandpa Zeng can take care of it." It’s not that bad, but Grandpa Zeng and the others still have their own business, they still want to plant mushrooms for another two years..."

Yan Chen interrupted her, "There's no need to explain so much, I know what you mean, in fact, if you don't say it, that's what I plan to do, and I want to talk to you, one is that I believe in your aunt's ability and her character The second is that we really need our own people to be responsible for this part.

In the provincial capital, my aunt is in charge of the operation of all our cooked food shops, and Uncle Tao is in charge of the operation of all our hot pot restaurants, the planting bases of vegetables in several greenhouses and the breeding of animal husbandry. At present, they really can't take care of more There are many industries.

And we are currently in a critical stage of learning, and this phenomenon will continue for at least a few years.

At this stage, if we want to expand any industry, we must find new suitable staff, and I think your aunt is the very suitable staff. "

"Really?"

"Of course it's sincere!"

Xiang Jin said, "That's fine, as long as you don't think I'm nepotism!"

Yan Chen just laughed, "How could it be? If you said that, wouldn't I be more cronyistic? You must know that my aunt and Uncle Tao are in charge of the property in our provincial capital."

Xiang Jin said, "How come? I trust you, so naturally I can trust them!"

Yan Chen said, "Isn't that enough?! But when the time comes, let's make an agreement with them. As long as your aunt and my grandfather, I will share [-]% of their shares. You and I will each get [-] points. One point per person."

Xiang Jin nodded and said, "Yes!"

"What are you guys talking about? What is one point for each person?" Han Che found a box of matches and handed it to Yan Chen, who took it and started to light the fire.

Xiang Jin said, "Oh, it's nothing, it means that today's cured fish will be smoked, how to distribute it."

Han Che said "oh", and then asked, "Then how do you plan to distribute it?"

Xiang Jin said, "For us, there are a total of 84. At that time, Yan Chen will take 25, Grandma Mo and others will take [-], Yan Chen's uncles and aunts will take [-], Aunt Liao will take [-], and I will take all the rest. Walk."

Yan Chen looked at her and asked her why she brought him so much, Xiang Jin blinked at him, "You go back and get some for your aunt, and your grandpa isn't at home all the year round, isn't it?" , you can also take a few for him to the army at that time, let the people in the cooking class cook for him, and you and Uncle Tao will eat the rest at home."

Han Che said, "Then you only have 32?"

Xiang Jin said, "32 fish is enough, my aunt would eat a lot of fish for one person, so a few fish is enough for her.

My parents usually eat at work, that is, they eat at home in the morning and evening. For breakfast, they usually have steamed buns, steamed buns, porridge, eggs, etc., that is, they cook a meal at home at night, but my dad often does not eat at home, so they I can't eat much either.

My grandparents and I want to eat it, but we don’t eat it every day. We still have so many bacon and sausages in our family, but the most important thing for us is to eat a lot of fresh meat, so I have 32 completely Enough is enough. "

Yan Chen asked her, "Aren't you going to give it to your grandparents?"

Xiang Jin said, "No, I have already been to their place today, and I may not have much time to go to their place later, so I won't take it, and their place is very close to Yantang, I want to eat fish Now, you can go there and buy a live fish to eat."

Yan Chen nodded, "Okay!"

"Ah, ah, put cypress branches on it, it's already burning."

After she reminded them, the two hurriedly put cypress branches on the fire, and when the white smoke was thicker and the fire below was also rushing up, Xiang Jin reminded them to add grapefruit peels and Tangerine skin.

"Don't close this tin shed too tightly, lest there will be no air in it, and it will be extinguished at that time. Let's try to evaporate all the water vapor on them after a few hours of smoking today."

"Is this okay?" Han Che took the iron sheet and touched it obliquely.

Xiang Jin nodded and said, "Yes, yes!"

After finishing everything, everyone went to wash their hands again, and Han Che then asked, "Hey, how are you doing in the city these days? Did you see anyone? And did you see anything?" A relative's house to visit for New Year's greetings?"

Xiang Jin said, "Yes, on the day of New Year's Eve, several of my dad's colleagues who lived in the family courtyard, and then they all dragged their families with them, and the whole family came to our house to eat together. The hot pot caused my parents to buy another two dining tables and several induction cookers."

Han Che chuckled, and then Xiang Jin said, "We don't have many relatives, but I followed my aunt to her husband's house for a meal on the second day of junior high school.

In the third day of junior high school, two of my dad’s colleagues in the family courtyard had dinner at their home, and then went to one family for dinner at noon, and another family for dinner at night. "

Han Che teased her and said, "Then you've had a pretty fulfilling life these few days, are you rushing to eat?"

Xiang Jin said, "It's okay, but fortunately, I'm in my third year of high school. If I don't want to stay with others after dinner, I have a reasonable excuse to escape."

Yan Chen laughed, "That's indeed a good excuse to prevaricate."

"Girl Jin, stay here with your parents for one night, and leave tomorrow, okay?" At this moment, Grandma Mo and her mother walked over together, and Grandma Mo said to Xiang Jin.

"Ah?! Do you want to live here?" Xiang Jin looked at her mother.

Xiang Jin's mother said, "I told your dad to see what you want. We said go back, but your grandpa Zeng and grandma Mo refused to let us stay for one night. If you say go back, I will go back with your dad." I will send you back to school, if you want to stay here for one night, then we will stay."

Yan Chen just looked at her, and Han Che kept nodding at her, "Stay for one night, stay for one night, we have to go back the day after tomorrow, and we won't see each other for at least half a year, let's talk a little longer By the way, you haven’t even given me the recipe for the pickled fish that you told me last time.”

"Oh, sorry, forgot!"

Grandma Mo also looked at her with a smile and said, "Your bed is still there. We still have a lot of rooms in our house. I'm not afraid that I won't be able to live in it. I will stay for another night, huh? Grandma Mo also wants to see you more." , you see that Chen Chen has gone back, and you won't have much time to come back in the future."

Xiang Jin said, "I'm free, and I'll come back to see you and Grandpa Zeng."

"Okay, okay!" Grandma Mo narrowed her eyes with a smile.

Seeing everyone's expectant expressions, Xiang Jin nodded immediately, "Okay, then let's stay for one night!"

The corners of Yan Chen's mouth curled up slightly, and Grandma Mo clapped her hands and nodded vigorously, laughing and said, "Oh, that's right, that's right."

Then Xiang Jin's mother reminded her, "Xiao Jin, let's go and get her the gift from your Aunt Liao's house."

"okay!"

Then Grandma Mo said to Yan Chen, "Chen Chen, together with girl Jin and the others, go and say hello to your Aunt Liao, and ask her to come to our house for dinner at night."

"it is good!"

Following Xiang Jin's mother, she opened the trunk of the car, and then Xiang Jin took out the presents for Aunt Liao, Yan Chen helped them carry them, and followed the three of them towards Aunt Liao's house.
