Rebirth 1980: The heroine returns her prodigal son

The old man smiled, took a sip of soy milk, and took a long breath.

"What's an eight-mile journey? I used to have to walk forty or fifty kilometers a night to follow the team. I can't walk now, but I can still come to you from the village to buy a pancake."

Ye Xing listened to the old man talking about his past, and added another spoonful of batter, which made the pancake thicker. She looked up at the old man from time to time, and couldn't help but hear the old man talking about his past bravery and touching moments.

Along with the excitement, I also feel sad when I hear him talk about the difficulties he had in the past.

When the pancakes were formed, she directly cracked an egg on top. The old man saw it and said helplessly.

"In the past, we were not allowed to take advantage of the common people. You girl is so kind-hearted."

Ye Xing said as he spread sauce on the pancakes and added vegetables.

"I respect people like you."

The old man took the pancakes, put down the empty bowl of soy milk for Ye Xing, said thank you again, took the pancakes and left.

Ye Xing stood there, looking at the old man's straight back through the car window, with some sadness in his eyes.

"Sister, I... also want pancakes."

Some nice and shy male voice sounded.

Ye Xing turned around and found that it was Yang Yueyi who had been here yesterday, and couldn't help but raise his lips and smile.

"You're still buying pancakes for your sister?"

Yang Yue lowered her head and hummed, the tips of her small ears turning red.

Ye Xing thinks this kid is really interesting. With such a shy temperament, will he really not be bullied in the factory?

Ye Xing sat down to spread the pancakes again, then scooped the batter onto the pan. A few more people came to buy buns. Ye Xing couldn't leave now, so he had to ask them to wait.

But those people were obviously in a hurry, so Yang Yueyi whispered.

"Sister, can I help you?"

Ye Xing was stunned for a moment, then nodded.

"Okay, thank you!"

Yang Yueyi carefully opened the lid of the box containing the buns, used oil paper to cushion the buns, and took out the buns for those people.

After collecting the money, he counted it and handed it to Ye Xing.

Ye Xing looked at his hands and said to him.

"Put it under the box for me."

"oh"

After Yang Yueyi's pancakes were finished, Ye Xing looked at the batter and saw that there were only two sheets left. It seemed that the pancakes were sold out before the steamed buns.

She steamed more steamed buns today than yesterday, and they were not sold out until after ten o'clock. There was no soy milk left. When Lu Beichen came, everything at Ye Xing's side was empty.

Lu Beichen watched the stall while she went back to make braised noodles.

After the noodles were cooked, she saw that there was still a little meat left in the buns, so she fried them with green onions. She went out with a big basin, locked the door, and told the two children to eat at home and not even open the windows.

Only then did he go out.

Today's braised noodles are sold faster than yesterday, and Ye Xing doesn't shout as much. Yesterday she shouted so much that she was despised by many people. It's embarrassing to be a self-employed person, but she still shouts in the street. How thick-skinned is she?

Not afraid of being poked in the spine and laughed at.

Ye Xing doesn't care how they arrange her behind the scenes, as long as her braised noodles can be sold. Besides, she doesn't think there is any shame in being a self-employed person. In 1984, the economy was fully liberalized, and there were more self-employed and private enterprises.

, making money is the last word.

After the lunch was sold out, she packed her things and prepared to go home. Lu Beichen didn't have to cook anymore today. She left a large pot of braised noodles at home, enough for the whole family.

But just as he was pushing the cart to leave, he saw several female students coming out of the school. They held each other's arms, talked and laughed and walked out of the No. 2 Middle School gate. When one of the girls saw Ye Xing, her face changed and her steps stopped.

Stopped unconsciously.

"Xiu Qin, what's wrong?"

Several of her companions looked at her doubtfully.

"What’s wrong with you?"

They followed Lu Xiuqin's gaze and saw an outstanding-looking woman dressed in a very rustic style, and she was pushing a food cart in her hand.

"Do you know the stall owner?"

Lu Xiuqin's expression changed, and she shook her head guiltily.

"I don't know him, I just saw... he looked like a vixen, so I took a second look."

Her classmates immediately started laughing.

"Vixen? You really know how to praise her. She is a self-employed person who runs a stall. Look, she is dressed like a ball. At least the vixen is really good-looking. I don't think there is anything good about her."

"That's right, I don't know what people like this think, and they don't feel ashamed. Who is a serious person who sets up a stall? How poor does your family have to be to make a living like this?"

Lu Xiuqin was so embarrassed by her classmates that she couldn't hold her head up. When she saw Ye Xing stopped the car and walked towards her, she quickly grabbed her classmates and left.

"We'd better leave quickly. Didn't you say you want to eat noodles? Hurry up, there won't be any seats left in a while!"

Ye Xing walked a few steps quickly, smiling and wanting to talk to Lu Xiuqin, but when Lu Xiuqin came to her side, she quickly lowered her head, and her classmates looked at Ye Xing with disdain and contempt.

Ye Xing was stunned, watching them pass by her, still not understanding what was going on.

She silently walked to the snack cart and pushed the cart while thinking. Then she slowly figured it out. Did Lu Xiuqin... think she was embarrassed? The self-employed were embarrassed? She didn't want her classmates to know?

Ye Xing couldn't explain how he felt, so when he got home, he told Lu Beichen about meeting Lu Xiuqin.

Lu Beichen was silent for a while, his eyebrows tightening more and more. He held Ye Xing's hand and his voice was a little deep.

"If she doesn't recognize you, we'll pretend we don't know her and continue to go about our business. You little bastard doesn't know what to do. Leave her alone and I'll pretend I don't know her either."

Ye Xing saw Lu Beichen fuming, and she comforted him in turn.

"It's okay, I'm not angry, it's just a little unexpected. I remember that Xiuqin has always been a very well-behaved and sensible child. Maybe she is about to take the college entrance examination and thinks we are embarrassing her."

"How can we embarrass her? We are doing our own business down-to-earth, so how can we embarrass her?"

This was the first time Ye Xing saw Lu Beichen so angry, and his voice was louder than usual.

Ye Xing leaned over and put his hand on his chest, giving him relief every time.

"Forget it, don't be angry. With your permission, I will really pretend that I don't know her from now on. If she doesn't take the initiative to come to me, my second sister-in-law, I will definitely not take the initiative to talk to her?"

Ye Xing was actually a cruel woman in her previous life. In order to get what she wanted, she could give up her husband and children. She regretted it because she later found out that she had taken the wrong path, so when she was reborn, she followed the path that she felt was right.

That is, her husband and children come first, and then her career.

As for her mother-in-law's family, in the final analysis, it is just because Lu Beichen and the others are Ye Xing's family. Since Lu Beichen said that she does not need to take the initiative to get close to Lu Xiuqin, then Ye Xing can definitely treat her as a stranger, but she does not

The habit of touching someone's cold butt with a hot face.
