Chapter 56
After leaving the guard's office with the basket on his back, Ji Yuanhai did not leave immediately. Instead, he chatted with Uncle Zhao for a while under the shade of a tree not far from the entrance of the family courtyard.

Ji Yuanhai said he would buy more popsicles, but Uncle Zhao was not happy and would not allow him to pay for it.

Ji Yuanhai could guess what Uncle Zhao meant and didn't insist anymore.

The two of them sat under the shade of a tree, and there were no outsiders, so they talked nonsense. What Uncle Zhao said was that there was a villain who was so extravagant that he wiped his buttocks with white flour buns...

Ji Yuanhai couldn't laugh or cry when he heard this: How could there be such a thing?What has happened to spreading rumors?

"Uncle Zhao, it's getting late at this time, it's noon, let's go eat?"

Ji Yuanhai said.

Uncle Zhao waved his hand: "What do you know, it's the best time to sell popsicles!"

"Besides, you just eat when you want to eat. Why are you calling me? You still want to treat me to a meal?"

Ji Yuanhai said seriously: "I really want to treat you to a meal, thank you very much for your help."

"If it wasn't for you last time, where would I have met Uncle Dong, and where would I have entered the family courtyard?"

Uncle Zhao saw that he really wanted to treat guests to dinner, so he laughed straight away: "You young man, I said you were clever, but you are not so clever in this matter!"

"I want to really do your best and help you?"

"Okay, okay, take a popsicle to eat on the road, hurry up! Don't delay me selling popsicles!"

After speaking, he lifted the thick quilt and handed a popsicle to Ji Yuanhai.

Ji Yuanhai wanted to pay, but Uncle Zhao pushed his hand away: "No, no!"

"I'm asking you to do it! You go about your business, and I'll do mine too!"

Ji Yuanhai took the popsicle with a smile: "Okay, uncle, you are busy!"

The two looked at each other, smiled, and nodded.

Then Ji Yuanhai ate popsicles and carried a basket on his back, and walked away in the hot noon sun.

After turning a few corners, he opened the handkerchief given by the silver-haired woman - Ji Yuanhai's expression was not too surprising.

This time Mr. Wang gave it to him. He estimated it to be more than 100 yuan just now.

Be careful, there is a full 150 yuan, which is 50 yuan a month as a reward!

The last time he paid 300 yuan, it was Ji Yuanhai who saved Mr. Wang’s lifeblood, a precious Song plum orchid.

The orchid seedlings are worth 80 yuan, and it is not easy to raise them. Moreover, because Mr. Wang's heart is on them, they are very special.

Because of this, the 300 yuan Ji Yuanhai received was actually double money to save lives and heal the wounded - the value of Song Mei's orchids and Mr. Wang's heartache.

But this time there was no urgency as last time, Ji Yuanhai was only working as a gardener and gardener, and he didn't have the idea of ​​getting too much money.

But unexpectedly, I got another 150 yuan.

As for the "residual reward" that Mr. Wang repeatedly emphasized for the last time he treated Song Mei, Ji Yuanhai resolutely rejected it several times, and Mr. Wang no longer mentioned it.

The main reason is that Ji Yuanhai doesn't want to make a one-shot deal, let alone discuss money with someone like Mr. Wang...

Today, Ji Yuanhai has further communication with Mr. Wang, Uncle Dong, and Uncle Zhao. If he only wants to accumulate money quickly, he does not need to do such a thing at all. When Mr. Wang proposed the reward of Song Meilanhua last time, he completely You can promise to come down.

But Ji Yuanhai will definitely not be treated so affectionately by Mr. Wang.

From now on, it's just working to make money, and people will never discuss friendship with him and keep him for dinner.

Ji Yuanhai put away his handkerchief, and first went to the bookstore to buy the books needed for the college entrance examination, including Chinese, mathematics, history, politics, and geography.

This is a book required for the liberal arts college entrance examination. It is the same as the later subjects except that it does not have English.

There are arts and sciences in later generations, and the current college entrance examination actually has it, but it is slightly different from later generations.

For example: on the same Chinese paper, if you are doing this paper for the liberal arts, you have to do the "one, two, three, four, five, six, eight" questions, and for the science department, you have to do the "one, two, three, four, five, seven" questions for this paper.

Foreign languages ​​such as English are additional points.

Ji Yuanhai and Lu Heling both prefer liberal arts rather than science and engineering.

Even though Era Sea was reborn with memories, its knowledge is relatively extensive, but there are also complicated problems. It has to be sorted out patiently according to the current trend of the college entrance examination and the language of the era, in order to get good scores.

There is no good in being too high-spirited.

I bought books and some daily necessities from Jiyuanhai Market and put them in baskets.

Afterwards, Ji Yuanhai arrived at the gate of the supply and marketing cooperative.

Walking to the county town and back to Xiaoshantun was too time-consuming. He wanted to buy a bicycle.

With a bicycle, not only Ji Yuanhai, but even Lu Heling can easily go out with a bicycle.

Entering the supply and marketing cooperative, Ji Yuanhai asked, and the salesperson at the supply and marketing cooperative gave a cold and stern reply.

The price of bicycles ranges from one hundred and two to one hundred and sixteen, and a bicycle ticket is also required.

Faced with such a cold and hard answer, Ji Yuanhai felt that the heat outside was not so hot anymore.

"Warm Service" on the wall - who is it for?

Besides this price, if I try to change the bicycle ticket again, I may not be able to buy a bicycle with the 150 yuan I just got and my original savings.

Or wait until you have a bicycle ticket before buying a bicycle.

However, bicycle tickets seem to be canceled this year or next year, right?Why is it that the supply and marketing cooperatives in Qingshan County still need bicycle tickets to buy bicycles?

Ji Yuanhai, carrying a basket on his back, left Qingshan County on foot and returned to Xiaoshantun.

It took some time on the road, and when we reached the ditch outside Xiaoshantun Village, Ji Yuanhai caught a fish in his hand, and it was already four or five o'clock in the afternoon.

Back at home in the south of the village, the production team hadn't finished work yet.

Ji Yuanhai put down the basket to put the money away, put the books on the cabinet, and put the daily necessities he just bought on the table and next to the stove.

There was nothing left or right, and there was no sound except for the humming of cicadas. Ji Yuanhai let some branches of the fence grow, and it was firmly fixed on the ground.

Then I planted some cucumbers, peppers, beans, eggplants and other vegetables.

Afterwards, Ji Yuanhai began to carry the fish to a puddle not far away to kill the fish, dig out the gills of the fish, scrape the scales of the fish, and while it was drying, there was already a whistle from the production team to call it a day.

Jiyuanhai killed the fish and marinated it in a basin to taste.

I thought Lu Heling would come back soon, and by then it would be marinated enough to make a good meal - the stewed fish that grandma made before was not done in this way.
Unexpectedly, more than half an hour later, Lu Heling didn't come back. Ji Yuanhai covered the killed fish, pressed a stone on top, locked the door, closed the fence, and walked into the village.

Seeing Liu Xianglan from afar, she asked about Lu Heling's whereabouts.

Liu Xianglan replied that Ji Yuanhai's mother seemed to have encountered something, and Lu Heling went home to see what was going on.

Ji Yuanhai was a little surprised.

Today I went to the county seat by myself, and my brother-in-law got married and held a banquet in Chenlou village, and my mother went to Chenlou village.

Then, what happened to this?Even Lu Heling went back to Ji's house to visit her.
