Chapter 160 Going into the City with the Old Lady
Now at home, there is always someone to keep her in check.
"Xiaobei, you have changed. You are no longer the Xiaobei who loves me."
Huo Shaobei covered her face, sighed and said, "Stop acting, I still like you to be more domineering."
"I'm a girl, how can I be so domineering? You must have seen it wrong." Anyway, she didn't admit it.
"Xiaobei, Nini, it's time for dinner." Mrs. Zhao's voice came from outside.
It was not convenient for the two of them to stay in the room.
Go out and eat quickly.
They went to pay their taxes and came back neither too early nor too late.
Their brigade was the first to use a harvester and was also the first brigade in the commune to plant late rice.
"Finally, I don't have to be busy this year."
"Dad, how are you going to sell the grapefruit?"
This is of course the same as in previous years.
“Sell it to the supply and marketing cooperative.”
Zhao Yunshu knew that at this time, rural people did not know about the brand effect.
"Dad, are the grapefruits in the village red-hearted?"
Seeing his daughter asking about this, Captain Zhao nodded and said, "It's a red-heart pomelo. Do you want to eat it?"
Zhao Yunshu: When did she say she wanted to eat?
“When will it be picked?”
"Wait until the frost comes, that's when the taste is the best." The harvest of crops on that slope was very poor, and he thought at the time that he couldn't let such a large piece of land just go to waste.
Just plant fruit trees.
"Dad, actually, the nearby forest can be leveled to plant tea trees. You don't know that when I went out this time, I saw the tea plantations and the price of tea there, and I was immediately tempted. It's more cost-effective than growing crops. And after planting, you can pick tea for many years, many times a year."
tea tree?
Captain Zhao doesn't know much about this.
"This is not urgent."
Captain Zhao certainly hopes to make money with everyone in the team.
But this tea tree requires a lot of investment.
Is the brigade now afraid that it can’t come up with so much money?
You can't let your daughter take the blame, right?
After what happened with Aunt Li, Captain Zhao would no longer harm his daughter's interests for the sake of the brigade's future.
After paying the public grain tax, there was another round of grain distribution.
Because the harvest this time was good, the members were satisfied when they received the harvest.
After the food was distributed, the village became lively.
First of all, the educated youth from the educated youth home married a female comrade from the commune.
She married into the family under the name of marrying into the wife's family.
Of course, the household registration is also registered with the woman’s family.
This incident not only caused a sensation in the Youth League, but even other people in the team were shocked when they learned about it.
"Aunt, isn't that Sanhua?"
Xiaozhuang pointed at Sanhua who was carrying a wooden bucket to the river to wash clothes.
Zhao Yunshu just took a glance and then looked away.
In fact, it is best to separate now.
It's better than getting married and being abandoned by the other person as soon as he returns to the city.
After the college entrance examination was resumed, the proportion of educated youth who passed the exam and returned to the city was very low. Those who did not pass the exam and returned to the city stayed in the countryside for a few years and then returned to the city one after another, leaving behind many children who were abandoned by their educated youth fathers and mothers.
"Aunt, you don't know, these past few days, I could hear Xiao Bao's mother scolding San Hua."
Not surprisingly.
Want a son-in-law who is an educated youth, so that he can take her back to the city to enjoy a good life?
What good things are you thinking about?
She knew one in her previous life, who married an educated youth and was taken back to the city. What kind of life did she live?
She is despised by her children, tortured by her in-laws, and treated coldly by her husband.
Even when he should be enjoying his life, he is still working outside to earn money to support his family.
"Why did you curse?"
Xiao Zhuang knew it, he heard it.
"If Sanhua can't even capture a man's heart, how can she survive?"
Hearing these words, the corners of Zhao Yunshu's mouth twitched a few times.
The next day, Zhao Yunshu took Huo Shaobei into the city.
Of course, the excuse I used was still to go to the city to find a job.
But this time the old lady went into the city with them.
Zhao Yunshu and Huo Shaobei looked at each other in confusion.
"Why, you don't want to go into town with an old woman like me?"
Zhao Yunshu reacted quickly, "Grandma, my uncle and aunt have been talking about you before."
"That's pretty much it."
Grandpa Zhao has gone to harness the ox cart.
The three of them got on the ox cart and headed towards the commune.
Grandma Zhao goes to the city almost every year, and she used to bring her granddaughter Zhao Yunshu with her.
Nini used to be stupid, but she listened to her family very much.
It didn't cause much trouble.
After shaking for more than an hour, we finally arrived in the city.
Go straight to the machinery factory.
The gatekeeper knew them.
Including Grandma Zhao.
"Sister-in-law, you are here."
Grandma Zhao smiled and said, "There's nothing to do in the village, so I came to the city to have a look."
This is the deputy factory director’s biological mother.
Zhao Aimin was stunned for a moment when he saw the three of them, but soon he smiled and called out, "Mom, you're finally in the city. If I hadn't been so busy lately, I would have gone back to my hometown to see you a long time ago."
Zhao Aimin is really busy. He has completed the orders from the county, but other cities are calling to request goods.
I went to see Secretary Zhong again a few days ago and learned that my niece and her family had returned.
"Give us the keys."
Zhao Aimin immediately took out the key.
"Nini, you said you were busy?"
It is indeed busy.
The machinery factory is doing very good business.
The production of harvesters and water pumps has long been discontinued, and the factory now focuses on producing forklifts.
Seeing that the forklift business was so good, the factory leaders wanted to reduce the share of the profits, but he directly refused.
Let me put it another way, if we break the contract, then next time Comrade Zhao Yunshu has any plans and doesn't hand them over to us, who will bear the loss?
Deputy Director Zhang, who was jumping the most violently, didn't dare to say a word.
What a joke, how much money did this forklift make their machinery factory?
Last time, the gifts for the Mid-Autumn Festival were double the amount of previous years.
Moreover, the leaders above knew about it and praised their machinery factory.
Zhao Aimin had no intention of telling his niece Zhao Yunshu about these things.
"Yes, I'm a little busy."
Grandma Zhao also knew that her youngest son was the deputy factory director and was busier than ordinary workers.
"We went back on our own."
"Uncle, let me use your bicycle."
After Zhao Aimin sent them away, he sighed.
Why did the old lady come to the city?
The fact that Nini went to study and got injured must be kept secret.
Secretary Zhong did not hide the fact that Zhao Yunshu was injured.
Everyone was sent back, thinking that Zhao Yunshu and the others would not hide it from their families. However, they did not hide it, but said that they just sprained their feet and were not hit by a wooden warehouse.
After Zhao Aimin learned the news, he did not rush back immediately because he was afraid of being scolded.
But looking at the old lady, it seems like she doesn’t know about this?
That means my niece and her family didn’t tell their family, so how did they hide it from them?
"Grandma, Xiaobei and I are going to the scrap yard. The New Year is coming soon, and many people want to buy three-turn and one-ring rings for their sons and daughters-in-law. If they can't buy new ones, they will buy old ones."
"Go ahead. Grandma can't delay you from making money." The old lady immediately waved her hand.
A radio is not cheap, and a repaired one can be sold for dozens of dollars.
