Rebirth: My 80s

Chapter 321 Meeting my father-in-law and brother-in-law for the first time

"Hey! What kind of happy event is this?"

The sun is scorching like fire, and at about three o'clock in the afternoon, the heat has dissipated somewhat, and the guests in the temporary courtyard are about to arrive.

In 80 Department Store, Jin Biao and Luna were standing behind the counter, not expecting customers first, but waiting for the owner to come.

Li Jiankun's look is quite different today, with a white short-sleeved shirt, black straight pants, and a pair of shiny leather shoes.

On weekdays, he always looks as comfortable as possible and wears mainly casual clothes, so this outfit looks particularly formal.

Li Jiankun smiled and looked around, "Where's Lao Lin."

"Going to the construction site."

Li Jiankun gave full responsibility to Lin Jingmin for the preparation of the new tool factory.Comrade Lao Lin is indeed reliable, he just doesn't have to move the bricks himself.

The main reason was that he was holding back his anger and vowed to run the new factory well and compete with the Heping Knife Factory. This would prove that Sun Guangyin's management was incompetent and arrogant.

These days, there is a shortage of large-scale machinery, and it is not a key project, so the progress is very slow.

At present, a foundation will be laid. Li Jiankun feels that it will be good if all the factories are built and the equipment is in place before the end of the year.

He chatted with Jin Biao and Luna for a while about a girl Chen Yajun recruited from the 90 Department Store. She was a native of Wudaokou and an educated youth who had just returned to the city this year.

The girl is very motivated to work, and the embarrassment of life forces her to make money, but she is a little timid and needs time to practice.

"Xiao Na, find me a pair of scissors."

Li Jiankun came to the inner room, leaned over the armchair, and sat down next to Lao Lin's workbench.

Luna brought the scissors and looked at the movements of his hands, shocked, "What are you doing, Brother Kun?"

I saw Li Jiankun sliding a well-topped leather shoe along the sole, making it look like a big mouth.

"Something happened."

I think I'm sick!

Li Jiankun didn't even explain. With Luna's nervous look on her face, she picked up a leather shoe with a big mouth and left the shop with a swagger.

"Oh, Brother Li, your shoes are worn out."

"No, I'm going to find a place to make up for it."

"You still have to mend your shoes?"

"As the saying goes, diligence and frugality are traditional virtues."

The shop owner who spoke to me was speechless for a while, but I almost believed him.

When passing by Half the Sky Embroidery Shop, Lin Xiuxiu was sitting at the counter with a small mouth, eating candy, holding an embroidery hoop in her hand, and embroidering a small noodle.

"Xiuxiu, what do you want to eat?"

Lin Xiuxiu raised her head and smiled brightly, "White Rabbit, Brother Kun, do you want to eat it?"

"Okay, give me two."

Lin Xiuxiu was stunned for a moment, then hurriedly rewrapped the candies in cow poop paper and handed them all over.

"You don't need so many." Li Jiankun took out a few pills, put them in his pocket, and waved his hand to say goodbye.

Lin Xiuxiu looked at his back and felt that Brother Kun was different today.

At that time, Li Jiankun was preparing to meet his father-in-law and brother-in-law.

Can't you dress more formally?Is there a reason?Can I bring some gifts?

On the east side of Yanyuan, Wudaokou residential area.

A three-way alley entrance.

Li Jiankun slowly pedaled the "Stitch Monster" and came over. This location was found out from Miss Shen's mouth. Don't mention it, Dad Shen has a bit of a business mind, and choosing a location for business is very important.

After discovering the target, Li Jiankun jumped off his bicycle and walked forward at a high speed, looking around as he walked.

The father-in-law is a middle-aged man with dark skin and a resolute face. He has many wrinkles on his face. It is difficult to tell his actual age. Judging from the ages of Miss Shen and her brother-in-law, it is unlikely that they are over fifty.

He was sitting in a wheelchair with a felt on his legs, which was his main operating table. There was a wooden box beside him, which contained tools such as a small hammer and a small hammer, as well as an inverted "L" "shaped Titozi.

My hands are busy at this time, and there is a customer waiting next to me.

The brother-in-law was squatting by one side of the wall with a tiger-like head, holding a little book and reading it with gusto.

Li Jiankun knew his name. He heard Miss Shen mention it as "Zhuang Zhuang".

Li Jiankun pushed his bicycle and came to stand in front of the stall. He said normally: "Master, how long do you have to wait? I'm going to repair some shoes."

Hearing this, Shen Xueshan raised his head and looked up, yo!Good spirited guy.

"Come on, come on, we'll be ready soon." As he said this, he subconsciously looked at Li Jiankun's feet.

These are top-notch leather shoes. Why did you open such a big hole, but the other one is still fine.

Shen Xueshan's hands are quite nimble. He can do tricks with a pair of needle-nose pliers, just like turning a pen, which is dazzling. He can only repair an umbrella.

The customer who was waiting took it, opened it and checked it. There was no problem, and handed over the two cents with satisfaction.

After Ma Zha made room, Li Jiankun set up the bicycle, sat on it, and took off his big-mouthed shoe.

"This... doesn't seem to be normal."

After taking a look, Shen Xueshan expressed doubts, as if he had been cut with a sharp weapon along the gap between the upper and the sole of the shoe.

Li Jiankun laughed, "It's bad, it's broken anyway."

"These are good shoes. There are two ways to repair them. One is to use strong glue to glue them together. It doesn't matter if it's a sunny day, but if you wear them on a rainy day, there is still a possibility of the glue opening. The second is to use seams. The disadvantage is that if you look carefully, it will look like the other shoes. One of them is different. Young man, how do you think it should be fixed?"

specialized!

Li Jiankun thought that he should sew more slowly, "Just sew."

"Do you think thirty cents is worth it?"

Li Jiankun: "..."

Do you dare to charge more?
Here are my shoes that cost more than 100 yuan!

However, there are definitely no customers who take the initiative to increase prices, so they have to comply.My father-in-law is quick to work.

Li Jiankun deliberately said, "Master, what are your legs?"

"I don't obey my orders anymore. When I was young, I had a peanut on my waist, which hurt my nerves."

Hey!
Li Jiankun was in awe, Miss Shen had never said that her father had this honor.

Of course, he never asked. He always felt that Miss Shen was quite concerned about this matter. It was really hard to say something like "Why is your dad disabled?"

Li Jiankun learned more about it and found out that it was in 62 when he beat Asan.

He said with emotion: "Our years have been peaceful, thanks to your efforts and sacrifices."

"It's our duty to protect our family and our country." Shen Xueshan grinned, "We are also doing it for our family, so it's worth it!"

The words "It's worth it" almost made Li Jiankun burst into tears, and his eyes subconsciously fell on his lap.

Talking about his family, Shen Xueshan felt quite proud, "Young man, don't look at me as a shoe repairman. My daughter has a bright future and is studying at Peking University!"

I know, it's quite familiar.

Li Jiankun followed the words and said, "Really? I am also from Peking University."

"Hey! Isn't this a coincidence!"

Shen Xueshan looked at him carefully and laughed, "Let me just say you are a talented person. Yes, I will repair these shoes for you for free."

Li Jiankun waved his hand repeatedly, but couldn't control it, so he pointed to the side, "Your son?"

"My little son is stupid and can't match the intelligence of his elder sister."

Shen Zhuang raised his head with an angry look on his face, which seemed to say: I haven't grown up yet, how do you know?
Li Jiankun waved to him to come over and took out a few white rabbits from his pocket.Shen Zhuang's eyes lit up, but Yan's father did not dare to act recklessly at this moment.

"Take it, your sister's classmate."

Shen Zhuang then took it over.The last time he had such good candy, Brother Xu bought it for him.

"Beijing University is really a place for talented people. Our family can be where we are today thanks to another young man from Beida."

Shen Xueshan's expression was filled with gratitude.

Li Jiankun felt nauseated, his face remained calm, and he asked why.He wanted to know what kind of weight Grandson Xu held in the hearts of Shen's parents.

Talking about Xu grandson, my father-in-law kept talking and giving him all kinds of praises.

Li Jiankun didn't reveal his inner thoughts. He chuckled and said, "He probably wants to have sex with your daughter."

Shen Xueshan was a sensible person and nodded, "Probably. Look, for now, we still have to focus on our studies. We'll talk about the future later, but this young man is really good."

Okay, then I understand.

Li Jiankun thought.

There was one thing that he was still hesitant about. After all, everything was calm now, and if he did it, he would get into trouble.

This will make up your mind.
