Rebuild 2005

Chapter 8 [008] Such a coincidence
Wei Qingfan finally couldn't help laughing out loud, patted him on the shoulder, moved the chair away, and reprimanded him gently: "Sit down!"

Wei Qinghan glanced at him, but didn't move.

Several elders noticed the interaction between the two brothers and looked at each other with smiles.

Uncle Wei Zheng smiled and said: "Don't bully your brother."

"The two brothers are playing around, so don't worry about it."

Auntie Li Heng smiled and said angrily, then asked: "Did Qingfan go to the library this afternoon?"

"Ah."

Wei Qingfan was a little surprised by his parents' quick talk, but this also showed the extent of his parents' surprise from the side, smiled and nodded, and said: "I'm free, I went shopping, I'm quite bookish. "

While talking, he noticed that Wei Qinghan looked over and knew that this younger brother loved reading, so he said with a smile, "You have to get a library card. If you want to borrow it, you can get it from me later."

Wei Zheng said: "The library card seems to require a deposit... [-], right?"

"It seems that the cost of the work is still charged, it should be seventy."

For Wei Qingfan who is still in school, this is not a small amount, Li Heng said, looking at Wei Peng and Wang Shuhua, and they looked at Wei Qingfan again.

Wei Qingfan smiled awkwardly: "I don't have that much money anymore. I was only thirty at the time. I happened to meet a classmate who lent me fifty."

Weizheng smiled and said, "Then hurry up and return it when school starts."

Wei Peng said: "Let your mother give it to you later."

"What about the library card?"

Wei Qinghuan rolled his eyes, and suddenly interjected, "Brother, don't you want to use this method to cheat money to go to an Internet cafe?"

"Are you quite skilled?"

Wei Qingfan gave her a sideways glance, "I have borrowed all my books, why are you lying?"

"I'm not you."

Wei Qinghuan immediately sensed that his brother was digging a hole for him, and retorted unconvinced, "Where's your library card?"

Wei Qingfan touched his trouser pocket, but found that he didn't bring it, "I'm at home, if you want to borrow a book, I will lend it to you later."

"I brought all the books home. This time it's true. Don't wrong your brother." Wang Shuhua smiled and explained to her son.

What is this time...

Wei Qingfan complained secretly, not daring to speak out, so as not to be slapped in the face by the scene.

Wei Qinghuan rolled his eyes again, as if he wanted to say something, and looked at his expression as if he wanted to tease him about his crush on the school girl, but he was afraid that the elders were there, so he refrained from saying anything.

Li Heng smiled and said, "Just study if you want to. Whatever books you want to read, your uncle also has them here. If you don't have any, go buy them. Ask your uncle to reimburse you."

Wei Qingchan muttered in a low voice, "It's just my dad's pocket money, why don't you harm my dad?"

Everyone laughed.

Li Heng glared at his daughter angrily, and Wei Qingchan stuck out her tongue.

Wei Zheng waved his hands and said with a smile: "It's okay, as long as you can reimburse the money for buying books, so can I."

Wei Qingfan said, "Okay."

Wei Qinghan raised his head, as if he wanted to say something, but didn't dare to say it.

Wei Qingfan turned to look at him: "You also want to report?"

Before Wei Qinghan finished speaking, Wang Qing asked, "What are you applying for? Look at the books you bought all day long. Is there any book related to study?"

Wei Qinghan looked at his mother, his mouth was aggrieved, and he didn't dare to refute.

Li Heng persuaded: "It's okay, I have a wide range of interests, and I don't necessarily read books only because I have good academic performance. Maybe I can become a writer in the future?"

She slowed down her tone, and said with a smile to Wei Qinghan: "You can ask your uncle for reimbursement for any books you buy. If your mother disagrees, don't let him know... But you have to tell your uncle what books you bought. .”

"Uh-huh!"

Wei Qinghan nodded vigorously with excitement, his eyes were shining brightly.

"Nerd." Wei Qinghuan muttered softly.

Wei Qinghan was immersed in the excitement of being able to buy a lot of books, and he didn't care about it with his sister. Of course, there was no way to care about it.

While talking, waiters came to serve food one after another, Wei Zheng greeted him to let him eat, and Wei Sheng also came in after finishing his cigarette.

Wei Peng asked: "Have you been smoking for so long?"

"Isn't this because the smell of smoke is too strong..."

Wei Sheng sat down with a smile, probably afraid of being scolded, he hurriedly said: "Eat, I'm really hungry."

The whole family chatted and ate occasionally, and the three Weizheng brothers drank some beer, which filled their stomachs. While chatting, Li Heng said: "By the way, Shuhua, I have something to discuss with you."

Everyone at the table looked over, and Li Heng smiled and said, "When the schools were withdrawn last year..."

She said something, and Wei Peng hurriedly said: "Sister-in-law, everything..."

Wei Zheng waved his hand and interrupted: "Listen to your sister-in-law first."

Wei Peng had no choice but to keep his mouth shut.

Wei Qingchan and Wei Qinghuan looked at each other, both a little confused, but Wei Qingfan, relying on the memory of later generations, was more clear about the words of the two elders.

My mother, Wang Shuhua, used to be an elementary school teacher in the village. Last year, the county closed down some schools and merged schools, and all the schools in the surrounding countryside were abolished. Wang Shuhua was laid off because of this.

In fact, the county has places for transfer and resettlement, and Weizheng is working in the education and sports bureau in the county, so Wei Peng and Wang Shuhua want their elder brother to do a favor and give Wang Shuhua a place to be transferred to a nearby county elementary school.

But the number of places is limited, Wei Zheng didn't get it done, or to put it bluntly, he just didn't get it done.

Although the uncle has lost a lot of energy and edges in reality, he still has his persistence and bottom line in some aspects.

Both Wei Peng and Wang Shuhua understood this, but it was inevitable to complain in their hearts.

Li Heng smiled and said: "You all know what happened, he is just like that, he can't do things like crowding people out.

"I said this not because I'm afraid you will complain in your heart, our family has nothing to talk about.

"Actually, if you really wanted to change schools, I could have done it for you without telling him. But after thinking about it, I think you might as well take this opportunity to do something else."

She glanced at Wei Qingfan, and continued in a soft tone: "The children are growing up, and they will have to go to college in two years, and they are all about to start a family, and the expenses will definitely increase in the future. After building a new house and teaching at the school, the salary is only so much, why don't you do the same as Wei Sheng and start a little business..."

Wei Sheng said: "I have already said, second brother, you will come with me, let's..."

Wei Peng said helplessly: "Don't interrupt, wait until sister-in-law finishes."

Weizheng took the conversation and said, "You know the newly opened Tianhai Middle School, right?"

Wang Shuhua nodded and said, "Well, their new campus is quite close to the village."

With a smile on his face, Li Heng said unhurriedly: "They officially opened a high school this year. There must not be many students at the beginning, but there are at least three or four hundred students. After the Spring Festival, the students from the current No. [-] Middle School may move there. By then there will be almost [-] students.

"I think you can open a small store in the school. Regardless of the small scale, you can make a lot of money and it's close to home."

Wang Qing said: "No, there are so many students, and it is a private school. Those who are not allowed to leave the school will earn tens of thousands a year, which is not enough."

Wei Sheng said: "I think this matter is reliable, second brother, second sister-in-law, just do this, don't hesitate!
"It's not tiring. It's enough to have someone to watch at ordinary times. It doesn't delay the work in the field. We can help if we are really busy."

In this big family, Weizheng and Li Heng are at the helm. According to Weizheng's plan, his job will basically not change. It is better to keep one of the two younger brothers at home to do farming and take care of the elderly, while the other can do some business. There is no need to tie them all to a few acres of land.

In the end, Wei Peng and Wei Sheng opened a clothing store in the county a few years ago, and the business was good.

It can be said that among the three brothers, Wei Peng's financial situation is relatively difficult, especially after the new house is built, Wei Zheng has obviously been trying to find a way out for this younger brother's family.

Wei Zheng said: "Think about it, if you want to do it, make a decision as soon as possible, and then we will find a way to prepare everything and start it as soon as possible, and the school will start soon."

Li Heng said: "This matter is urgent, and it is not urgent, after all, it is a new campus, and there is not only this one shop, so it will not delay the students' shopping for a few days.

"In addition, Shuhua, if you really don't want to do this and want to continue teaching, there is still a vacancy in Chengguan Primary School. I'll go back and find out... You and your wife should discuss this matter and see how you choose.

"I personally suggest opening a store, of course the final decision is in your hands."

Wang Qing said: "I also think it's good to open a shop."

Wei Sheng said: "Let's open the shop."

Wei Peng looked at Wang Shuhua, but said nothing. Wang Shuhua hesitated for a moment, and sighed, "I'm a teacher, and it's not good to earn students' money."

Wang Qing said: "If you don't earn money, someone else will earn it."

Wei Sheng said: "Second sister-in-law, if you go, you can treat the students better, right? Let's just earn less."

Li Heng said: "We won't persuade you on this matter, Shuhua, make up your own mind."

Wang Shuhua nodded.

Wei Qingchan didn't interrupt the whole time. Seeing that the conversation was almost over, she asked curiously: "Isn't school starting soon? If my aunt wants to teach, is there still time?"

Wang Shuhua raised her head when she heard the words.

Li Heng said: "It's too late. It's not like a teacher only teaches one class, nor does it have to teach several classes. There is room for flexible arrangements."

"Oh."

Wei Qingchan nodded, didn't ask any more questions, and continued cooking.

Wei Qingfan was also working hard to cook, so he didn't interrupt.

After this topic, there was nothing serious. The whole family chatted and finished their meal, then cleaned up and left together.

When they went downstairs, Wei Zheng was paying the bill as usual, and Wei Qingfan, his sister, younger brother and sister were waiting outside the door, breathing fresh air by the way.

Then when he turned his head unconsciously, he caught a glimpse of a familiar figure on the stairs, so he just turned around and then quickly turned back, almost twisting his neck.

Fortunately, the person did not admit his mistake, it was the classmate Bai Fumei who borrowed money from the library in the afternoon and was suspected of being "Li Miaoyu".

She was still dressed in the same clothes as when they met in the afternoon, and she followed a man and a woman downstairs from the stairs. The woman was the one who picked her up in the evening. She was tall and graceful, and she seemed to be her mother.

Wei Zheng had just paid the bill and was about to leave when he found his nephew staring at the back intently, so he subconsciously glanced back, then stopped in his footsteps, and greeted with a smile: "Ju Zhao, what a coincidence?"
