Life 1984

Chapter 23: Stay tonight?

Li Yunhai was riding Shen Xiulan's bicycle, and Shen Xiulan was sitting in the back seat of the car.

At the beginning, Shen Xiulan's hands were placed on the back seat of the car.

When she left the community gate, her hands grabbed Li Yunhai's clothes.

The bike suddenly jolted.

Shen Xiulan threw her butt upwards, she let out an ouch, quickly threw away her reserve, and hugged Li Yunhai's waist with both hands.

It was getting late, the street lights were dim, and although there were occasional pedestrians on the street, no one paid attention to the young couple.

Seeing that there was no acquaintance, Shen Xiulan became bolder. She hugged Li Yunhai's waist and pressed her face against his back.

Li Yunhai felt the warmth of her youthful body, and it was inevitable that he would feel a rush of heat. Even the evening breeze under the green trees could not cool his blood.

"Xiulan, let's sing a song and listen!"

Shen Xiulan said shyly: "I can't sing."

Li Yunhai smiled and said, "Hum whatever you want!"

Shen Xiulan did not hum, but said: "Yunhai, once I went back, Xiaoling and I went shopping on Wuyi Road and saw your back. You were riding a bicycle and you were bringing a woman with you. Who is she?"

Li Yunhai turned around, but did not see her face, and said: "Xiulan, did you see me that day? Why didn't you call me? Are you talking about Lin Zhi? I happened to go to her house that day to help her repair a tape recorder. .”

Shen Xiulan hummed and asked again: "Also, that night, Xiaoling and I went to the Red Theater to watch a movie, and we saw you. You walked into the cinema with a woman. Who was that woman? Or was it? That Linzhi you’re talking about?”

No matter how calm Li Yunhai was, he couldn't help but panic. He quickly explained: "Yes, I helped her repair a cassette player that day. I confiscated her money, so she invited me to watch a movie."

Shen Xiulan's tone was as calm as ever, and she asked, "Who is she?"

Li Yunhai answered honestly: "She is a student from the Xizhou Art School next door to our school."

Shen Xiulan exclaimed: "Really? How do you know her?"

Li Yunhai didn't dare to lie, because it took thousands of lies to cover a lie, and he and Lin Zhi were not even friends. There was no need for him to say truthfully just because she lied to Shen Xiulan: "On the day of graduation, I learned from you. After returning home to school, I didn’t go back to my hometown because it was too late. When I took a walk to the art school in the evening, I saw them holding a graduation performance in the auditorium. Their equipment happened to be broken, so I helped fix it.”

Shen Xiulan just wanted to know the core of the problem: "How did you and Lin Zhi meet?"

Li Yunhai's scalp was numb, thinking about things in the world, how could it be such a coincidence?He had interacted with Lin Zhi a few times, but in the end, Shen Xiulan met them all by chance?
"Well, we met when we were helping them repair equipment that day."

"What happened next? How did we get together again?"

"We are not together! What do you mean we are together? I have nothing to do with her. Don't think about it."

"Really? She is sitting in the back seat of your car. Doesn't she especially like to sing to you?"

"Ah? That car isn't mine, it's hers. How can I get a bicycle coupon to buy a car? She does like to sing, but she doesn't sing to me specifically. She just likes to sing."

In order to divert Shen Xiulan's attention, Li Yunhai asked with a smile: "Are you at work? How are you?"

"It's just a job, what else can it be? I work at an office anyway, so I'm not tired."

"Is there a person named Liu Jie in your unit?"

"Hey, how did you know that?"

"Haha, I also know that he likes you and wants to pursue you!"

"I hate you! I have a boyfriend, and I won't accept anyone's pursuit! Tell me, how did you know?"

"Haha! You can know my things, but you don't allow me to know yours?"

"Are you going to say it? Say it quickly!"

Shen Xiulan tickled him.

Li Yunhai was ticklish and couldn't control his hands. The bicycle swayed on the road like a dancing dragon.

"Okay, Xiulan, why don't I confess?" Li Yunhai quickly clamped his arms and said, "I helped a bank leader repair a machine, and it turns out that his son is your colleague Liu Jie."

Shen Xiulan chuckled and said, "Really! You said this provincial capital is so small!"

Her focus was successfully diverted by Li Yunhai, and she no longer held onto Lin Zhi.

While talking, I came to Jiuru Lane.

"Yunhai, why did you bring me here?" Shen Xiulan looked around curiously.

Li Yunhai got out of the car, pointed at Li Ji's repair shop, and said with a smile: "Comrade Xiulan is invited to come to the shop to inspect the work."

"Ah? You opened this shop?" Shen Xiulan exclaimed softly, covering her face, and her beautiful eyes were full of surprise.

"Yes, I opened it." Li Yunhai took out the key and opened the door, smiling, "I originally wanted to name the shop a Hailan repair shop, but after thinking about it, I had to ask for your permission, so I didn't dare to make the decision without permission. "

"Hailan Repair Shop? It sounds pretty good! Okay, you can use it! I agree to authorize it for you to use."

"Okay! I will change the name of this store another day." Li Yunhai entered the store and pulled the light cord.

Shen Xiulan took a look at this small house, pursed her lips and smiled: "It's not bad! Are you sleeping here? It's quite cozy! Did you decorate it?"

Li Yunhai knew that he couldn't hide it because these arrangements were obviously feminine, so he smiled and said, "Lin Zhi helped me arrange them."

The smile on Shen Xiulan's pretty face disappeared instantly: "You live with her? You still said there is nothing between you?"

Li Yunhai quickly held her hand, fearing that she would be angry and run away, so he explained to her.

After listening to his explanation, Shen Xiulan thought for a while and said, "So, Lin Zhi is a very enthusiastic person to help others? Is it really a pure friendship between you? Without any emotional factors?"

Li Yunhai pulled her to sit down on the edge of the bed and said with a smile: "She and I are not even friends! At most we are just acquaintances! She helped me because I repaired two electrical appliances for her house and I confiscated them She was embarrassed about the money, so she helped me buy these things."

Shen Xiulan stood up and looked at the electrical appliances in Li Yunhai's shop: "Why don't you report back to your hometown?"

Li Yunhai followed her and said: "As you know, I have four younger brothers and sisters. School is not going to start soon. Do I need some tuition, miscellaneous fees and living expenses? I want to make some money in the provincial capital before going home. Anyway, I'm reporting. There’s still time!”

Shen Xiulan stopped, looked at him and said, "You should discuss such a big matter with me! Isn't it possible that I'm not your girlfriend? For tasks like decorating a store, you can definitely come to me!"

Li Yunhai scratched his head and said with a smile: "Don't you have to go to work?"

Shen Xiulan pouted slightly and said: "I only go to work for eight hours! I have plenty of time. Besides, I have my own car now, and it is very convenient to come to your place. Can you make money doing repairs? You go to work Can’t you also make money? Your salary is not low either, you can earn 32 yuan a month!”

Li Yunhai couldn't help but smile proudly: "Xiulan, guess how much money I've made in the past few days?"

Shen Xiulan smiled, spread out the five fingers of her right hand, and asked: "Five yuan? Repairing a TV, cassette player, etc., only earns one or two yuan!"

Li Yunhai took his bag, opened it, took out a cloth bag, and unwrapped it layer by layer.

"What? Mysterious and wrapped so tightly? Candy?"

"It's money!"

"Wow!"

Shen Xiulan couldn't help but exclaimed when she saw a bag full of money inside!
Her voice was trembling: "Yunhai, you, what have you done? Where did you get so much money? You didn't do anything bad, right?"

"Hey! Xiulan, am I the kind of person who does bad things? I don't have the heart, but I don't have the guts! I earned this all! The money I earned from doing repairs!"

Shen Xiulan shook her head: "I don't believe it! There is also a repairman outside my street. When his business is good, he earns a little more than the workers, but he can only earn a few dozen yuan! How can you earn so much? Money? Aren’t you trying to steal money?”

Li Yunhai laughed and said: "You are right, I can repair it as fast as robbing money!"

The money he earned was in big bills worth ten yuan a piece.

In this day and age, a 10 yuan bill is the biggest money!
Shen Xiulan said in surprise: "Did you really earn it? How much money is there?"

Li Yunhai stuffed the money into her hand: "You are the accountant, help me count it! I don't know how much money is left."

Shen Xiulan pursed her lips and smiled, then came inside, sat on the bed, and twisted around to count the money: "Don't you know how much money you make?"

Li Yunhai scratched his head: "I roughly remembered that I made more than 2600 yuan."

Shen Xiulan quickly counted it all: "No, there is no 2600 yuan here!"

Li Yunhai nodded: "Of course, I also spent some money."

He gave a total of four gifts, each gift cost 51 yuan, and four times equaled 204 yuan.

In addition to the money for buying steamed buns, drinking soda, and renting a house, it should have cost about 20 yuan.

Shen Xiulan organized the money, put the big bills together, put the small bills together, pocketed each 100 yuan with a banknote, and said: "Yunhai, there are a total of 2396 yuan here, and there are still 6 cents and 3 cents here. change. Is repairing so profitable?"

Li Yunhai told her story about repairing typewriters and copiers: "Xiulan, this business is very profitable! Thirty years ago, there were people in our hometown doing this business. At that time, workers' wages were only a dozen yuan, and they tinkered with whatever they wanted. After a few minutes, the asking price is a repair fee of 30 yuan! Of course the repair fee is higher now!"

In the [-]s, not long after the founding of the People's Republic of China, there was a capable man in Meishan County who repaired typewriters in Beijin. This man later became the originator of my country's literary and printing industry.

Shen Xiulan was very surprised after hearing this: "Then you can do this business! Yunhai, you have to keep accounts. How much money you make and how much you spend every day must be written down. Otherwise, you will only have a confused account!"

Li Yunhai held her hand and said with a smile: "You are studying accounting. I feel relieved to have you help me manage my money."

Shen Xiulan blushed, took out her hand, and said, "We're not married yet! It's up to you to manage the money yourself."

Li Yunhai moved closer to her.

Shen Xiulan stepped back a little.

Li Yunhai came close to her again, put his hand on her leg, and said warmly: "Xiulan, I miss you! My longing for you is spreading like weeds in spring! Can you stay with me tonight? I?"

Shen Xiulan had taken a shower and was wearing a long dress with blue floral flowers on a white background. She exuded a quiet and elegant fragrance. She had waterfall-like long hair, a standard oval-seed face, smart almond eyes, and her steady and dignified temperament. People can't help but feel close to him after seeing it.

Li Yunhai thought about what happened in her bedroom that day, and he wished he could continue their relationship immediately and have a romantic dream with her.
