River dam, fried fish stall.
Yin Yu held two bills with a smile on his face.
Xu Wenyi silently moved a few steps away to avoid being implicated.
Xue Yuantong was frying fish when he saw two $50 bills in Yin Yu's hand and said, "But you don't have enough money."
Yin Yu was stunned. Are street stalls so expensive now?
There was a chorus of condemnation from the rear: "Why are you pretending if you don't have enough money?"
"The little girl has such a bad heart. Can you sleep well at night?"
Yin Yu was not affected at all, she still had a hypocritical smile: "It doesn't matter, I still have money."
She pretended to take money from her wallet.
Jiang Ning looked at her and said, "Limit purchase to one copy."
Yin Yu: “Ah?”
She opened her eyes wide and said earnestly, "Wouldn't it be better if I bought everything for you at once? Then you wouldn't have to set up a stall, and it would be much easier for you."
Xue Yuantong blinked and said innocently: "Really? If I wasn't worried that you might become a scalper, I would definitely sell it to you."
Yin Yu's eyes froze; her plan was discovered.
In fact, she had already made a plan in her mind. After buying this pot of fried fish, she would sell it on the spot at a high price. What would Jiang Ning and the others choose?
They set up stalls to make money, can they really resist the idea of taking the opportunity to raise prices?
And how will customers react?
I think that scene must be very interesting.
Unfortunately, the plan only stopped at the first step.
Yin Yu complained a little: "How can I be a scalper? Forget it."
In the end, she only spent 30 yuan and bought a large portion of fish.
The pedestrians queuing behind were given a false alarm and quickly paid for the fish. After getting the fish, they couldn’t wait to enjoy it and kept praising it, saying it was so delicious!
With more customers’ recognition, many people who thought the product was too expensive could no longer resist the fragrance and started lining up.
While frying the fish, Xue Yuantong introduced: "We buy the grass carp right now, kill it right now, marinate it right now, and fry it right now, so it tastes so good!"
These words won praise from diners.
But there was a middle-aged woman with luxurious clothes and holding a teddy bear, who said in a blaming tone: "The grass carp is living well in the water, why did you kill it?"
Oh, it turns out that they are animal rights activists who stand on the moral high ground.
Jiang Ning: "Then what line are you in?"
Lady: "I bought it for my dog."
As soon as these words were spoken, the people around who were eating fried fish glared at him.
Xue Yuantong frowned: "I won't sell it to you."
The lady was not happy and accused him, "You killed all the fish, why don't you sell them to me?"
"Don't you want to do business anymore?"
Tongtong was unhappy and said crisply: "Because of you, I will go home and kill ten more fish tonight. Now you have 10 fish lives on your shoulders. Wait for them to settle the score in your dream!"
The lady's face changed and she was about to start a war of words.
Jiang Ning picked up a large spoon, scooped some hot oil into the boiling oil pan, and slowly lifted it up.
The lady saw that his expression didn't seem fake, and she was so scared that she quickly ran away with Teddy.
Fortunately, she ran fast, otherwise Jiang Ning would have to summon Xiaoben to let the world see what an invincible vicious dog is.
Pots of fried fish were sold.
As the sky gradually darkens, the street lamps come on, the dim lights blend with the afterglow of the sunset in the sky, and fried noodles, fried rice and various snack stalls begin to become popular.
Another group of people came to line up, and an old lady with her grandson finally got to the front of the line.
She yelled, "Why did you give me less than others? Was it short weight?"
The fried fish stall business was prepared in a hurry, so there was no electronic scale, and it all depended on Tongtong's feel of stirring the wok.
In fact, Xue Yuantong gave her an extra piece of fish because she was an old lady.
Tongtong heard this and took down two more pieces: "That's all."
The old lady was shaking with anger.
Jiang Ning spoke up at the right time: "Are you still going to buy it? Are you not going to sell it to others?"
The old lady looked at her crying grandson and gritted her teeth and bought it.
Tongtong was excited: "It turns out that setting up a stall is so fun, no wonder so many people like to set up stalls."
The pedestrians around were all numb after hearing this.
But the fried fish here is so crispy and delicious that you can’t give it up.
A fashionable young woman came to the queue. She looked at Tongtong with a gentle attitude and said, "Little boy, can you give me some more fried fish?"
Tongtong's mood instantly sank, and she deliberately shortchanged him: "Is that enough?"
The young woman gritted her teeth to pay.
at the same time.
A white Mercedes-Benz C was driving quietly on Nanhong Road, not far from the river dam.
The driver was a young woman. She was operating the steering wheel with a smile on her face: "Qing'e, does the ambient light look good?"
Mercedes-Benz's interior has always been known for its luxury. When the purple ambient light is turned on, it simply lights up the hearts of girls. Shen Qing'e enviously said, "Well, it looks good."
Shen Hongdie's face became more and more joyful.
In 2015, being able to drive a Mercedes-Benz C in third- and fourth-tier cities was definitely considered a small achievement.
Shen Hongdie: "I'll drive you home in a Mercedes-Benz during the Chinese New Year."
She could almost imagine the shocked reactions of her former sisters, friends, and classmates when they saw the big Mercedes logo when she drove the Mercedes back to the village.
Shen Qing'e glanced at her sister and remembered the origin of this car.
Some time ago, Uncle Yao, who worked in construction, came to visit Uncle Jiang's house and claimed that someone owed him construction money and had not repaid him, so he used a Mercedes-Benz as collateral. However, his family had too many cars and could not drive all of them, so he "lent" it to Uncle Jiang.
After some "fierce" refusals, Uncle Jiang finally accepted it. However, when he arrived at the garage, he found that it was a brand new 2015 Mercedes-Benz C.
Even Shen Qing'e could see that it was because Uncle Yao made a lot of money from the project this year, so as to express her gratitude, she specially gave the car to Uncle Jiang to thank him for helping her introduce the project.
My aunt doesn't like driving, so the car naturally belongs to my brother-in-law. My sister persuaded him and exchanged the Volkswagen for a Mercedes-Benz.
Hence, the scene we see today.
At this moment, Shen Hongdie was driving a Mercedes-Benz, like a real urban beauty.
Shen Qing'e was happy for her, but she felt a little sad in her heart. Her sister was not as good-looking or intelligent as her, but her life was so smooth.
Listening to them chatting, they claimed that this car was worth nearly 400,000 yuan, enough to buy a house in the city.
Shen Hongdie couldn't hide her joy: "Qing'e, accompany me to the river dam to run and lose weight later!"
"Your brother-in-law has recently made some business friends and is studying history, politics, Europe and the world every day. I can't fall behind you, your sister."
As a rural woman, Shen Hongdie is very self-aware.
"Heba..." Shen Qing'e thought of Jiang Ning. That was the place where he rented a house and she hadn't been there for a long time.
Shen Hongdie parked her car in Nanhong Park. Looking at the elegant white car, she felt better and became more determined to lose weight.
The two sisters warmed up and started jogging on the river dam.
The scenery and air along the Huishui River are beautiful, so many people run to lose weight.
When you are tired of running, you can go to the snack stand and have a big meal, which is great.
Shen Hongdie was determined and remained unmoved when passing by the fried skewers stall, roujiamo stall, and cold noodle stall.
But under the temptation of fried fish, her will finally wavered, "I have already run for five minutes, reward myself, is it okay?"
Shen Hongdie mixed into the queue and called her sister.
Shen Qing'e stopped, took a breath, and exclaimed in surprise: "Jiang Ning!"
Shen Hongdie took a closer look and found that it was Jiang Ning!
She quickly walked out of the team and called out enthusiastically, "Jiang Ning."
Jiang Ning recognized his cousin's wife. When he first came to Yuzhou City the year before last, it was his cousin's wife who drove to pick him and Shen Qing'e up.
In the blink of an eye, so much time has passed.
In fact, when he lived in his uncle's house in his previous life, his cousin's wife disliked him a little. She was essentially the same kind of person as Shen Qing'e, a little vain.
However, this is what it is like to live under someone else's roof.
Jiang Ning chuckled and said, "Cousin, try our fried fish."
He quickly packed a portion of fried fish and handed it over. Shen Hongdie paid and Jiang Ning waved his hand.
Shen Hongdie did not insist. She knew Jiang Ning was not short of money and probably wanted to experience the life of setting up a stall.
She originally wanted to strike up a conversation, but seeing that there were many customers, she found a cold noodle stand nearby, ordered two servings of cold noodles, iced rice wine, and then started eating fried fish.
"This fried fish is so delicious, much better than the one I had in Shencheng before. It's very fragrant." Shen Hongdie ate several pieces in a row and completely forgot about losing weight.
Shen Qing'e also ate the fried fish in silence.
Shen Hongdie looked at her sister and suddenly realized something was wrong. She was puzzled: "Qing'e, didn't you and Jiang Ning have a good relationship before? Why haven't I seen you two chatting for a long time?"
Shen Hongdie knew very well that she could drive a Mercedes-Benz because her father-in-law asked Jiang Ning's parents to let Uncle Yao take over the Changqing Liquid project.
Therefore, in her heart, Jiang Ning's family must never be underestimated.
When Shen Qing'e faced her sister's inquiry, she didn't know how to answer for a moment.
She just felt that the fried fish in her hand was extremely difficult to eat.
Shen Qing'e: "We... are in a cold war."
"How long has the Cold War lasted?"
Shen Qing'e: "It should be about a year."
"One year?" Shen Hongdie was confused at first.
Because she listened to her husband reading history every day, she said: "There are 365 days in a year. 365 days are enough for France to surrender eight times. You tell me this is the Cold War?"
……
When they were selling fish at the end, Chuchu passed by after school and joined them.
After all the fried fish were sold, Jiang Ning drove the stall car to take Tongtong home, and Chuchu rode an electric scooter parallel to them.
Tongtong's voice floated in the air: "We sold 51 catties of fish in total, at 30 yuan per catty, that's 1530 yuan!"
"But I spent 232 yuan on the fish and used four barrels of oil, which cost me nearly 500 yuan. It's so difficult to do business!"
"Oh!" Life is not easy, Tongtong sighed.
Jiang Ning: “Very good.”
Xue Chuchu: "My mother used to work in the factory for only 100 yuan a day."
Xue Yuantong was proud again: "Then I am still very powerful."
"If you and Chuchu are poor in the future, come and work for me, and I will support you!"
Jiang Ning: "Thank you."
Xue Chuchu pursed her lips and said, "Tongtong, someone from our Hu Miao Middle School has transferred to your No. 4 Middle School."
She didn't have a QQ account before high school. She only applied for one after she got a smartphone.
When I returned to the village during the Chinese New Year, as expected, many of my former classmates added me and even formed a QQ group.
Tongtong was puzzled: "How do you know?"
Xue Chuchu: "I've received a lot of private messages in the past few days, all about this."
Tongtong was shocked: "Why didn't I receive it?"
Jiang Ning looked at the difference in appearance between Tongtong and Chuchu, and out of politeness, did not say anything.
Xue Chuchu: "Some good students, such as Zhong Huai and Han Wennuan, are coming soon."
Xue Yuantong's eyes widened: "Han Wennuan, I know her!"
Jiang Ning was slightly surprised when she saw Tongtong's expression. She was always innocent and rarely showed such a look.
……
at the same time.
Xinhong County, Humiao Town, large-scale KTV.
Neon lights were flashing in the private room, and a boy was holding a microphone, standing in the center of the crowd.
He picked up the wine glass and said affectionately: "Classmates, starting from tomorrow, I will go to Yuzhou No. 4 Middle School to study!"
"Take care of yourself!"
"Take care of yourself!"
All the students drank the wine, with reluctance and envy in their eyes, because that was the famous No. 4 Middle School!
Not only because entering No. 4 Middle School would ensure a secure future, but also because I am a child from a rural area and I yearn for the city.
Zhong Huai gave a speech: "Here, I should thank my classmates the most for their company. After this trip, the next time we meet may be during the summer vacation! I can't bear to leave you!"
As he spoke, the room was filled with melancholy and the atmosphere of farewell gradually became thicker.
Several sentimental female classmates looked at him with reluctance. Zhong Huai was an ordinary-looking man, but his grades were always among the top three in the grade, and he was indestructible.
His excellent results gave him a halo and made him extraordinary.
One girl was reluctant to leave: "Zhong Huai, why don't you stay?"
In the darkness, Zhong Huai's face froze for a second. It was impossible not to go. One day he would step into a bigger world and make a name for himself!
Zhong Huai sobbed, "I don't want to leave either, but this is my father's wish. He's having a hard time at the construction site!"
"How could I bear to disappoint him?"
"Come on, let me dedicate a song to my beloved father!"
Zhong Huai began to request songs, singing with deep emotion: "I always asked for things from you but never said thank you~ It was not until I grew up that I understood how hard it was for you~"
His singing skills were pretty good, and the atmosphere was great, so he quickly infected everyone.
Zhong Huai wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes and continued singing with emotion.
Soon everyone started to sing together, and when it reached the climax, they all shouted out: "Time, time, please slow down and don't let you grow old anymore~ I would give up everything I have in exchange for your long life~"
All twenty or so classmates in the KTV were crying!
Even after the song ended, some people still couldn't calm down, thinking about the hardships of their fathers, some burst into tears and cried:
"father!"
“Dad!”
The atmosphere in the private room was a little subtle for a moment.
In this situation, a thin girl in a plain coat sat in the corner, quietly looking at her wrong answer book, not moved at all.
Zhong Huai discovered this female classmate, and she didn’t cry!
His forehead twitched, and he quietly moved to the side and asked, "Han Wennuan, why are you still reading?"
Han Wennuan raised her face. Her bare face was neither stunning nor gorgeous. Her lips were even slightly pale due to malnutrition.
Han Wennuan's voice was filled with a hint of sexual indifference: "You should read a book, otherwise you won't have the money to come next time."
Zhong Huai looked at her and said, "I know you are obsessed with making money, but this time we are all in this together, and we don't want your money, so give me some face!"
Han Wennuan: "Okay."
Zhong Huai was satisfied: "You should also be active with everyone. After all, it is the last night."
After Zhong Huai finished the matter, he returned to the middle position and started to liven up the atmosphere again.
At this time, a gorgeous girl looked towards the corner with a provocative look: "Han Wennuan, do you want to sing a duet?"
As soon as these words came out, everyone looked at Han Wennuan.
Han Wennuan put down the book, his lips turning pale: "Okay."
"Let me make this clear first. I sing all the time, so I'm pretty good at it. You're not allowed to run away in the middle of singing."
"Zhong Huai, help me record the video!"
Zhong Huai is willing: "Leave it to me."
The beautiful girl held the microphone and sang softly: "I'm still looking for ~ a support and a hug ~"
After humming a few more lines, it was Han Wennuan's turn.
Everyone looked at her. As everyone knew, Han Wennuan's family was very poor and she had a strange personality. She would definitely make a fool of herself when she sang...
However, no one spoke out to stop it.
Han Wennuan opened and closed his lips, his voice no longer cold, but clear: "Happiness is beginning to have signs~ Fate is bringing us closer~"
Against this backdrop, the gorgeous girl seemed to be reciting.
The changes in the beautiful girl's expression are very exciting.
She said loudly: "Han Wennuan, you must pay for singing!"
Han Wennuan immediately stopped singing and quickly retorted: "I won't!"
……
River dam.
After Jiang Ning got home, he cleaned the stall cart and prepared to take the remaining fried fish to the farm house to return it to Lin Zida.
"Jiang Ning, do you want some ice cream?" Tongtong held the popsicle in his hand.
"Don't you take a shower?"
"Wait until I finish taking a shower. My mother might be back by then. Let's eat first." Tongtong said as a matter of course.
Jiang Ning deliberately said: "You earned a thousand yuan today, are you still afraid of her?"
Tongtong immediately added the aura of courage and asserted: "Yes, economic strength determines the status of a family. It's time to prove who is the head of the family!"
Jiang Ning took the ice cream and was about to eat it when his phone suddenly vibrated.
He turned on the screen, and at the same time, another message came.
Shen Qing'e: "For this targeted assistance, several of our old high school classmates have come to No. 4 Middle School. Shall we get together tomorrow?"
Geng Lu: "Jiang Ning, I'm going to Ancheng the day after tomorrow. Are you free tomorrow... um?"
