My 1991

Chapter 49, good things happen one after another

Luan didn't sleep well for the first half of the night.

Lying on the bed, Meng Qingchi's smile filled his mind.

Sometimes he turns over and wonders: He has been reborn, so why is he still not immune to her when he sees her? What a promising person.

After thinking about it, I finally fell over in a daze.

the next day.

Before dawn, Li Dong called the door again.

Just after washing his hair and face, Lu An opened the door and asked: "How can you be so tossing so early in the morning?"

Li Dong poked his head in and said mysteriously: "Brother, do you think I have something good for you?"

Lu An's thoughts were all on the second painting, and he said with a frown: "What good things can you have? I'm too lazy to guess, so take it out yourself."

Li Dong walked in, struggled to lift 6 kilograms of beef with both hands and shook it in front of him: "Look! The best yellow beef is grown on grass."

beef.

Lu An's eyes lit up, he quickly closed the courtyard door with his hand, and asked anxiously: "Where did this beef come from? You didn't steal a cow outside, did you?"

Li Dong glared at him: "What are you talking about? How can I steal a cow that is so big?"

Lu An was afraid that his loud voice would attract people from Tongzilou next door, so he quickly pulled him into the kitchen: "Tell me, where did you get it?"

Li Dong hesitantly said: "I exchanged the dog for the butcher."

Lu An asked: "Isn't he the butcher at the entrance of the alley?"

Li Dong snorted and asked disdainfully: "I, Li Dong, am so stupid? I changed from Hexi. I went out at 5 o'clock this morning for this reason. I was chased by a dog and fell down on the road."

What a fuck! When I got around to it, I killed the two dogs. "

Three seconds of silence for those two dogs.

Lu An asked: "There is so much beef, do you want to take some home?"

Li Dong shook his head and said, "I won't take it. Didn't you say that people have too many eyesight? My Li Erxia is as stupid as a pig. If I can't protect everything, I'll tell others."

Lu An said, "Then go and call Ye Run over. We'll make beef hotpot this morning."

Li Dong turned around and left.

Lu An stopped him and blinked: "Beef alone is not enough, you also need some side dishes, such as tofu, konjac, garlic and so on."

Li Dong raised his hand to show his middle finger, said "beast" and ran away.

After Li Dong left, Meng Qingchi walked out of the side room and looked down at the beef.

Ask him: "Is this obtained in exchange for Matchmaker Wu's dog?"

Matchmaker Wu spent the whole night looking for the dog last night and scolded her all night long. However, she had a better memory this time and ended the work on time at 11 o'clock. She did not dare to offend Widow Zhang and her daughter.

Lu An took cover, "No, Li Dong saw that my food was not good, so he used the money from repairing his bicycle to improve my food."

After staring at him with dark eyes for a while, Meng Qingchi smiled and went to the kitchen with the beef without revealing anything.

After a while, Li Dong turned around, followed by Ye Run, and the two of them went straight to the kitchen.

Lu An walked around the kitchen and saw that the three of them were busy and had nothing to do with themselves. He continued to return to the bedroom to paint.

The wind blew all night and the rain fell all night. Just as the weather forecast said, the first snow of this winter arrived in the afternoon.

Lu An hunched his back, clasped his hands, and hurried to the public phone booth despite the dense snow. Although he was wearing a thick cotton robe and trousers, he still couldn't resist the chill that was so cold that he felt deep in his bones.

"Boss, make a call."

"City or long distance?"

"In the city."

The boss pushed the landline phone towards him, and Luan grabbed the receiver and dialed.

The first call was to Zhou Kun. Two oil paintings had been completed and he was asked to come and inspect the goods.

"Hey, who's there?"

"It's me, Lu An. The painting is ready. When are you free to come over and take a look?"

"Luan, that's the one that makes you blow."

There seemed to be other people beside Zhou Kun, muttering. Although their voices were low, Lu An could hear them clearly.

Zhou Kun looked very excited: "I'm free now, come right over."

"Sure, I'll wait for you at home."

The call was short, less than 30 seconds.

After thinking about it, Lu An put the receiver back and picked it up again, and hung it up at the tailor shop in the town.

As soon as the phone call came through, Lu An rushed to say, "Hello, I'm Lu Yan's younger brother. I'm looking for Lu Yan."

The other side shouted: "Lu Yan, Lu Yan, your brother's phone number."

About ten seconds later, Lu Yan took the receiver: "Second brother, what do you want from me?"

In the first two years of high school, the two siblings basically didn't make phone calls. It was too expensive, and they would just buy a pound of meat and it would be gone.

So Lu Yan was very surprised when she received the call and felt very uneasy, thinking something had happened.

Lu An said: "It's okay, don't worry, I just miss you and my third child. Sister, have you bought your sewing machine?"

When she heard that it was okay, Lu Yan's tense mood immediately relaxed and she said excitedly:

"I bought it. I bought it last week. It was 80% new. The lady boss only asked me for 300 yuan. I will be a regular worker from now on, and my salary will be 6 yuan a day."

No wonder Lu Yan is so happy. With 6 yuan a day, she will be over 180 in a month.

In the town, this salary is considered a good income.

But Luan was not surprised when he heard this.

This eldest sister is loyal and willing to work, so the boss lady likes her better.

In addition, there are many people making clothes these days, and business is good, so it is natural to have this kind of income.

Even though it costs 10 yuan a day to hire a mason and bamboo maker in the village, they spend three days fishing and two days drying nets. How many jobs can they produce in a month?

The income is far less than that of the eldest sister.

Lu An was also happy for her and said with a smile: "That's good. You have worked as an apprentice for two years and finally made it through. Let's celebrate it when I come back."

Lu Yan was extremely happy and agreed wholeheartedly.

After chatting for a while, the two talked about their third sister, Song Jia. Lu Yan said, "My sister ranked first in the school in the midterm exam. This is the first time. She came here to tell me as soon as her scores came out."

Lu An asked: "This is a happy event. She has finally turned over after being the second child for ten thousand years. Have you brought her anything to eat?"

Lu Yan said: "I took her to eat a bowl of wontons, one piece at a time, and we were both full after finishing the soup."

Although Lu Yan and Song Jia have been in the town for more than two years, this is the first time they eat wontons, which is considered a very luxurious thing.

Lu An was silent after hearing this, feeling very uncomfortable.

No matter how poor the other children in the village are, their parents will always bite the bullet and let them eat a bowl to satisfy their cravings when they go to the market. There are only three siblings from the old Lu family. They just pass by and take a look every time, but never go in.

Suddenly, I felt an impulse in my heart and wanted to tell them about how I made money by painting, but thinking that Zhou Kun hadn't come to check and accept the money yet, and the money hadn't settled yet, I swallowed the words.

After talking for two minutes and reporting that they were safe, Lu Yan urged to hang up the phone:

"I won't call you anymore. The phone bill is too expensive. You can meet me when you come back during the winter vacation."

"good"

As soon as he said the good word, the caller had already hung up. Lu An looked at the time on the phone and saw that it was exactly two minutes.

Yes, the budget-conscious elder sister has been pinching the point. If there is one more second, it will be counted as another minute, and they will charge an extra dollar.

"Two calls together are 3 yuan," the boss said.

Lu An took out 3 yuan and handed it over, "Here!"
