My 1991

"Well, I won more than 8 yuan."

When she saw the person she liked walking over, Meng Qing's face was filled with peach blossoms. After happily squeezing the zero ticket in her hand, she hurriedly stood up and pulled him to sit down.

With a smile on his face, he said: "Come on, I've been fighting all day and my head is all confused. You can do it for me."

There are many relatives in the living room on the second floor, including the eldest aunt, second aunt, sister-in-law of the Meng family, and a brother-in-law, all of whom are taking care of the family, totaling at least 15 people. Fortunately, the living room is big enough to hold three tables of cards without feeling crowded.

But at this time, everyone looked at Lu An in unison.

In other words, from the moment Meng Wenjie took Lu An to the second floor, everyone here stopped their movements in tacit agreement and looked at Lu An.

They had all heard about Lu An making money from painting, and because they were blood relatives of the Meng family, they knew the inside story better than the average person.

For example, they knew that Lu An sold 4 paintings and earned 60,000.

For example, they knew that Lu An had signed a contract with a large gallery and an auction house in Shanghai.

For example, auction houses and galleries give Lu An a basic salary of 2,000 yuan per month.

For example, they know that with Lu An signing a contract with the gallery, it is now a thing of the past to want to buy 15,000 paintings from him.

They were shocked when they first heard about it. Can they make money selling paintings? This has exceeded their imagination, and they earned 60,000 yuan in one fell swoop.

Everyone here has a deposit of more than 60,000. And even if there is, it is a shameful gray income that no one dares to say openly.

And when they learned that Lu An signed a contract with the gallery and received a fixed salary of 2,000, they were jealous. They were jealous.

After the jealousy and jealousy, they were deeply convinced. They only felt very awesome that an 18-year-old boy had achieved such terrifying results in a field that was completely unfamiliar to them.

Almost all the elders in the living room knew that Meng Qingshui liked Lu An. After all, they moved around a lot on weekdays, so it was inevitable that they would find traces of it.

In the past, all three aunts secretly opposed it, thinking that Qingshui was in such good condition and so pretty, so she should wait until she finished her studies to find a better one.

For example, find a family that is involved in politics.

Since they are all members of the system, the three aunts also favor families within the system the most, and more or less look down upon families outside the system.

Their concept is that as long as they enter the system, they will have everything.

The three sisters-in-law strongly objected. Li Meng knew about it, but she kept trying to make peace with it, saying that the child was still too young and not to interfere too much, as long as it did not affect his studies.

Again, Li Meng likes this junior Lu An very much. Not only is he the only son of his good friend, but he also likes his appearance very much.

But now, when I heard that Lu An was a promising young man, and that Lu An had great talent in painting, all three aunts, three uncles, brother-in-laws, and a bunch of cousins, etc. They all looked at the passionate Meng Qingshui with different thoughts.

According to local customs in Qianzhen, men like to type cards and women like to play poker.

Faced with so many people and Meng Qingshui's affectionate feelings, Lu An couldn't refuse, or it was difficult to refuse.

"It's only around 2 o'clock in the afternoon, and dinner is still 2 hours away. Are you hungry?" Meng Qingshui sat next to him and asked him after reading the cards.

Foodie Lu was never unkind to himself when it came to eating, so he nodded immediately: "Well, I'm really hungry after traveling all the way."

Meng Qingshui stood up and said, "I'm going to get you a bowl of noodles. I have your favorite beef at home. I'll fry a beef whistle for you."

Lu An looked up at her, feeling warm in her heart, and said yes, and said: "Fry an egg for me."

After five years, seeing that he finally no longer resisted her so much, Meng Qingshui's eyes almost dripped with affection, and she immediately entered the kitchen in high spirits.

Li Meng, who saw all this, also followed quietly into the kitchen.

After closing the kitchen door, Li Meng said to his little daughter who was washing the beef: "Go and wash some ginger and garlic. Mom will help you make it."

Meng Qingshui glanced at her mother sheepishly and asked worriedly: "Will he eat it?"

Li Meng immediately figured out the conflicting thoughts of his little daughter, and teased: "I don't usually like to cook, but now in order to please him, I know that my cooking skills are not good. You, you still have to learn more from your sister." , your sister’s craftsmanship is now better than mom’s.”

The first half of the sentence made her blush.

But when she heard the second part of the sentence, it didn't sound right to her ears, and Meng Qingshui's little heart suddenly twitched.

Her sister's appearance was not inferior to hers, but because she was several years older, she was now at the peak of her charm. She never understood when Lu An transferred his feelings from her to her sister?

But she knew very well that her sister was now her biggest emotional "enemy".

Shuting, she can suppress it with a letter.

Li Rou, she is not afraid either.

But with her sister, she had already tried it several times, but Lu An refused to repent, and simply turned from darkness to light. This made her very frustrated and aggrieved.

He was obviously in love with me, but he hadn't explicitly said they were breaking up over the years, so why did he fall in love with his sister?

With mixed emotions, Meng Qingshui cut the ginger, washed the garlic sprouts, and then stood aside to watch her mother's operation carefully.

Seeing his daughter studying, Li Meng said: "Don't cut this kind of yellow beef too thick. If it is too thick, it will not be easy to fry, and it will be easy to burn, which will affect the taste.

For better flavor, it is best to marinate for 10 minutes, during which time you can use it to prepare side dishes. "

After a series of steps, the noodles are cooked, and the beef noodles are cooked over high heat for about 30 seconds. Then a bowl of fragrant beef noodles comes out of the pot, and it's delicious.

Seeing his daughter standing still, Li Meng asked while washing the pot: "Why don't you carry it away? If mom carries it, you won't be able to do anything."

Meng Qingshui took a look at this mother who was making fun of her and said, "I want to fry an egg."

Li Meng put the washed pot on the stove, "You can make the eggs yourself. To capture a man's heart, you must first learn to capture his stomach."

I don't know why, but every time Li Meng teases her little daughter about her feelings, she feels particularly beautiful. This pleasant feeling almost makes her addicted.

For a child who grew up in a remote area like Shao City, Meng Qingshui's cooking skills were not as bad as Li Meng said. At least the eggs were fried golden on both sides and looked decent.

When the noodles came, I lowered my head and looked at the half bowl of beef whistle and the oily red soup. My mouth watered and my taste buds were excited.

When he ate one piece, it tasted surprisingly good. When he ate another piece, the taste was a bit beyond his imagination.

After eating some food for two lifetimes, he could immediately tell that something was wrong, but after taking a look at Qing Shui's tender face, he didn't intend to reveal it.

Instead, he handed her the playing cards in his hand and said, "You play a few games, and I'll take over after you finish eating."

"Okay." Meng Qingshui responded softly, reaching out to take the card that still had residual warmth.

The eldest aunt, second aunt and younger uncle at the same table watched the two interacting as if they were watching a love TV show without saying a word.

In the middle, Lu An suddenly asked her: "Where did Sister Qingchi go? Why didn't I see her?"

Hearing this, Meng Qingshui, who was playing his cards, became nervous and almost dropped the cards in his hand on the table.

Fortunately, this was not the first time she had faced this situation. She had experience and calmed down her emotions before replying softly:

"Sister went to my uncle's house in Changshi to pay New Year greetings. By the way, I stayed there until the exam was over."

Lu An had been observing her carefully, and he was relieved when he saw that she didn't fall out, but then he felt a little depressed.

Sister Qingchi just left like this?

You don't even say hello to yourself. Are you hiding from yourself?

Is this to leave room for clear water?

Lu An thought to himself, it seems that the confession on the phone before the Chinese New Year completely frightened this girl. I felt sour for a while.

Lu An took a bite of the egg and asked, "Which university did Sister Qingchi get a doctorate from?"

Meng Qingshui played a pair of aces and answered him: "Hunan Medical College, Department of Internal Medicine."

Hearing this, he felt relieved.

Although Sister Qingchi took the Ph.D. exam a year early, her school has not changed and her major has not changed.

Speaking of which, the medical school was one of the first universities in the country to pilot doctoral programs in 1981. At that time, only four universities in Hunan had this qualification, including the National Defense University. You can imagine how valuable a doctorate from this medical school is.

After dinner, Lu An said goodbye to the Meng family.

Since there were too many guests at home, there was no place to rest. Meng Zhenhai and Li Meng did not try to persuade him to stay, but just brought him a lot of novelty things.

Seeing Meng Qingshui reluctantly sending him to the gate, Lu An extended an invitation: "I want to go to my sister-in-law's place to pay New Year's greetings. Can you come with me?"

Meng Wenjie, who was smoking next to him, almost choked when he heard such strange words. Is this what the inviter invited? Can you be a little sincere?

Sure enough, Meng Qingshui looked at him with resentful eyes and shook his head: "You go ahead, I won't go. Pay attention to safety on the road."

Meng Wenjie interjected: "Big brother drove him, little sister, you should tell me to pay attention to safety."

Being interrupted like this, Meng Qingshui's mood immediately improved a bit, and she said with a smile: "Brother, Lu An, have a safe trip."

This, this is hopeless.

Meng Wenjie raised his head and looked at the sky, feeling very disgusted that this little girl had completely stopped kissing him.

Sitting on the motorcycle, Lu An said to her, "I'm leaving. Let's go back to Baoqing together on the eighth day of the lunar month."

"good."

Although the last sentence was short, it allowed Meng Qingshui to temporarily come out of the haze.

"Uncle, aunt, sister-in-law, they are leaving."

As the motorcycle started to move, Lu An waved to the three people watching him at the entrance of the courtyard.

"Hey, walk slowly and come to play at home more often when you have time." This was Li Meng's response.

Halfway through, Meng Wenjie, who felt sorry for his little sister, asked him: "What on earth do you think?"

Lu An didn't hear: "The wind is too strong, what did you say? Please speak louder."

Meng Wenjie immediately slowed down by a third and repeated loudly into the wind: "What on earth are you thinking?"

Lu An asked knowingly: "What do you think?"

Meng Wenjie asked: "Do you still want to be my brother-in-law?"

Lu An laughed and said: "I think, in my dreams, I want to be your brother-in-law."

Meng Wenjie thought he heard wrongly, stopped the car and said angrily: "Then you still pushed Qingshui out? If I hadn't watched you grow up, I couldn't help but want to do something to you."

Lu An said sincerely: "Brother, I'm going to call you that first. The time hasn't come yet. Let's wait until we finish reading."

Meng Wenjie warned him: "You kid, don't do whatever you want just because Qing Shui likes you.

Let me tell you, if Qingshui is wronged by you, I will get it back twice as much. "

Lu An was not threatened at all: "Hey, can you please speak nicely? Don't be such a bully. You are also a state cadre after all, so you have to pay attention to your image.

Besides, you can’t beat me. "

"And you broke me so bad that your sister had to poop and pee in front of the hospital bed to take care of me. You will be the one who feels the pain then."

Meng Wenjie laughed angrily, "You are such a shameless person. If Qing Shui likes you, you are blind."

Lu An rarely refuted this, and didn't know how to refute it.

12 miles away, the motorcycle will arrive soon.

After unloading the things out of the car, Lu An sighed: "I just took some cigarettes and wine to your house, but my aunt returned me more than five times the amount.

I see that you have been angry on the road. Would you like to go in for something to eat and drink and eat your food back? "

Meng Wenjie was originally very self-restrained, but when faced with this little bastard, he broke his guard several times. He immediately laughed and cursed, "Get out of here", turned around and left.

Seeing her precious nephew, my sister-in-law was happy at first, and then complained: "I heard that you will be back at noon, why don't you just come to my house? I plan to give you a surprise."

Lu An was curious: "Sister-in-law, don't fool me. You can see the whole house at a glance. What surprises can there be?"

My sister-in-law was so angry that she pinched his ear: "Surprise will leave in the afternoon, later."

Even knowing what the surprise was, Lu An didn't care at all. After greeting the relatives inside one by one, he asked his uncle:

"Uncle, have you invited the plasterer and carpenter?"

My uncle is a very pragmatic person: "Xiao An, don't worry, we have already called for the construction to start on the sixth day of the lunar month."

"Okay." With the background from his previous life, Lu An was quite reassured about his uncle's character, and in some cases, even more reassured than himself.

That night, the three families gathered together to discuss the details. They first gave the aunt 4,000 yuan as an advance payment, and the red bricks were delivered first.

Lao Lu's family is going to build a new house, and it is a two-story red brick house, which has caused a great sensation in the village.

Now there is a family in Shangcun, a fashionable red brick house where the secretary and two gold diggers live.

Other families still have wooden houses.

And quite a few of them are old houses with dozens or hundreds of years of history, and life is very tight. It would be a lie to say that everyone is not feeling sad.

People often come to the house and ask questions. The one with an envious expression really wants to marry his daughter to Lu An as his wife.

According to Lu An's idea, the old house will not be demolished yet. There is open space next to his house and the vegetable field is his own. The vegetable field at the back will be leveled first. After the red brick house is built, the wooden house will be demolished to build a yard. You can also grow vegetables on the walls.

Lu Yan, her aunt, and her sister-in-law all agreed with this plan, but they opposed the wall, saying that since they were all neighbors, it would be inconvenient to build a wall to visit, and it would be difficult to communicate with the people around them.

Seeing that everyone's attitude was like this, Lu An gave in and didn't care too much. Anyway, after he went out to study, he basically wouldn't stay at home. The eldest sister could come as long as she pleased.

It was originally planned to cover the roof with tiles, but under Lu An's strong insistence, the roof was capped with cement. However, the budget required more than a thousand yuan.

Early in the morning on the fourth day of the Lunar New Year, my uncle announced a big news at the intersection: He was looking for someone to pick red bricks, and they cost 3 cents a piece, and they picked them from my aunt's house to Lao Lu's house.

As soon as the news came out, the owner of the canteen immediately helped everyone pick up the abacus beads:

10 bricks cost 3 cents. On such a flat road, one person can easily pick up 20 to 30 bricks. For those who are strong enough, it only costs about 1 yuan per load.

And the round trip is only 6 miles. If we pick 20 loads a day, then we don’t get a salary of 20 a day?

Oh, the wages are really high, and people at the intersection are excited.

Suddenly, the wife and children no longer care about anything, and some things are half done. Men, women, and children all go out to work. The adults earn wages, and the children earn chili candy money. For a while, they are full of enthusiasm and enthusiasm.

The younger uncle divided the work for everyone: Lu Yan and her younger sister-in-law counted bricks, Song Jia kept count, the older uncle asked a Feng Shui master to look at the land, and the older aunt cooked.

As for Lu An, his uncle did not arrange any work for him and said he would be allowed to do whatever he wanted.

What is free play?

If it sounds nice, I don't care about anything. If it sounds bad, I just want to be the village bully.

Song Jia, who originally thought the job was the easiest, couldn't stand it anymore. It turned out that these neighbors were so damn enthusiastic that she stayed up all night in order to make more money and prevent others from losing all their money.

This was something no one in the Old Lu family expected.

With no other choice, Lu An was dragged out by his uncle to put out the fire at night and took over Song Jia's shift.

This continued for two days. The red bricks were shipped and the wood was neatly arranged, just waiting to be fired.

In this era, everyone has no skills and relies on a few efforts to earn a living. The Lu family is going to build a house and call for workers. Many people go to their uncle overnight to have a relationship, just to work and earn some income.

My uncle secretly asked the three Lu Yan siblings: "Have any of the neighbors bullied you?"

Lu Yan thought for a while and said one family.

The younger uncle knew what was going on and silently eliminated that family's labor force. Then he stepped forward to be the villain and started recruiting workers.

These days, there are many idle people, and there are many idle people. With the Lu family’s delicious food and drinks, no one wants to work as a foreign worker, and no one dares to work as a foreign worker. It’s not easy to get this job. If he is rejected because of being a foreign worker, That's not a loss of blood.

So one by one, they worked very hard in the frequent dirty jokes.
