Chapter 56 Common Sense

Luo Jinlian didn't expect that Xie Jingyan actually knew about the brother who borrowed money and repaid the uncle: "It seems that I didn't read this book in vain. Everyone knows that the brother who borrowed money repaid the uncle."

"This is common sense." Xie Jingyan said: "I have read many miscellaneous books and mentioned this, and newspapers occasionally write reports on this aspect, so if I have extra money, it will be no problem if my sister asks me to borrow it, but

IOUs are indispensable."

Xie Jingyan didn't want to cause a quarrel between the sisters because of some money, so it was better to explain some things now.

"No problem, I will write an IOU when the time comes." Xie Ruyan has no intention of borrowing money and not paying it back. Even though she likes the feeling of counting money, she has to feel at ease counting the money if it is her own. If it is borrowed money, she feels

No matter how many times I count, I will never be happy.

"Okay, I'll buy a Walkman in a few days and then see how much is left. If it's more than twenty, I'll lend you twenty. If it's less than twenty, I'll borrow as much as you want." Xie Jingyan said directly.

"Okay." Xie Ruyan nodded seriously and had no objection to Xie Jingyan's suggestion.

"By the way, dad, take me to the post office tomorrow to get the money." Xie Jingyan said directly.

Xie Jingyan is only eight years old. A child cannot take money.

Although it was only five yuan, given today's commodity prices, with rice costing only ten cents per pound, this five yuan was still a huge amount of money, and the postal remittance department stipulated that you need a household registration book to withdraw money.

"Okay, daddy will take you to get the money tomorrow." Xie Fugui naturally did not respond.

Probably because of Xie Jingyan's actions during this period, Xie Fugui and Luo Jinlian have become accustomed to the feeling that they can no longer take their children's money.

Especially Luo Jinlian, even though she is still a little unhappy now, she did not mention it again that she wanted to take the money.

The next day, Xie Jingyan, led by Xie Fugui, went to the post office to get five yuan, and then asked Xie Fugui to take her to the department store, mainly to buy a Walkman.

Today's Walkmans are not something that ordinary people can buy. You must know that the function of a Walkman is to listen to tapes, and if you buy a Walkman, you also need to buy a tape.

This is a consumer item, and the current Walkman does not have the function of a radio. A radio is a radio, and a Walkman is a Walkman.

So most people won't buy it.

Even department stores generally don’t stock more than five Walkmans, and if there are more, they worry that no one will buy them.

When Xie Jingyan went to buy it, it was pretty good. There was still the last one, but the surface was a little scratched, so the department store gave it a dollar cheaper and sold it to Xie Jingyan for fourteen dollars.

Of course, after buying the Walkman, Xie Jingyan also bought English tapes. This was her purpose.

There were two cassettes, which cost three yuan in total. Including the walkman, the total cost was seventeen yuan.

"This money is useless." Xie Jingyan couldn't help but sigh.

Xie Fugui laughed after hearing this, rubbed Xie Jingyan's head and said, "You have to use it even if you don't need it. In fact, you can let me pay for these things to learn."

"No need." Xie Jingyan shook his head: "I am studying in advance. If it is the knowledge material for my third grade, you will naturally have to pay for it. I learned it separately, so it is better for me to be responsible for it."

Xie Jingyan Everyone is responsible for their own life. Parents are always responsible for the current journey. Most of the journey in life must be walked by oneself.

Since Xie Jingyan started going to school, Xie Fugui found that his daughter was getting healthier and healthier.

In the past, one illness would occur every five days, and a minor illness would occur every three days. If it wasn't cold, I would have a cold or fever, and if it wasn't hot, I would be weak throughout the bitter summer.

A lot of thought has gone into it since she was born.

But now, since going to school, Xie Jingyan has not been sick at all.

Likewise, Xie Jingyan seems to be becoming more and more independent.

Xie Fugui had no other doubts, he just felt that his daughter had grown up.

She looked at Xie Jingyan with a face filled with relief: "Second girl has grown up."

"Dad, please don't say this. I will go to the city with my teacher to participate in a math competition next week on Sunday. You have to pay for the meal." Xie Jingyan made a face. She knew that she still had to rely on

Parents, it’s better not to let Xie Fugui get too emotional.

Xie Fugui laughed and said: "I'll do it, I'll do it. How many people from your school will go next Sunday?"

"I don't know, but Teacher Zhou informed me that I must go, and there should be a few others. I just don't know if there are many people. If there are not many people, they should take the bus together. If there are many, they may be chartered by the school.

.”

Despite its small size, the principal of the town school still cares for his students.

When Xie Fugui heard that the teacher would go with him, he didn't care about anything else. He felt relieved that the teacher was there.

After Xie Jingyan returned home, she put the Walkman headset into her ears and listened to English.

Today's English learning is all self-study, and it is also learned from the learning space. In terms of speaking, if you don't have special training, you will not be able to speak like that by nature, and you won't be doubted by then.

Now it's great to have a Walkman. You can learn along with the tapes. This standard English accent is actually very nice.

Many people like English with a British accent, but Xie Jingyan prefers English with a beautiful accent. Probably because the British accent gives people a more peaceful and luxurious feeling. Relatively speaking, the beautiful accent gives people a special feeling of strength.

Xie Jingyan followed him to learn English, and he liked the gentle and luxurious tone, so he learned standard English with a British accent.

At the same time, Xie Ruyan was reading his own music score.

As for Xie Fugui and Luo Jinlian discussing building a house at home.

"I asked about it. Someone in the second brigade demolished an old house. I went to see it. The old bricks are all good, not raw bricks. I thought about buying some old bricks. If they are not enough, I will buy new ones. This can save money.

Next deal.”

Xie Fugui drew in his notebook: "Just buying old bricks will make us a little tired, and we have to deal with the mud on the bricks ourselves."

"It doesn't matter if you are tired. Anyway, there is no overtime work in our factory during this period. If you buy old bricks and come back, I will peel some off when I get off work. I can always peel away the mud."

Luo Jinlian couldn't be happier just thinking about being able to build a new house for her family.

"Well, then I will go to the second brigade tomorrow and buy old bricks from someone else. Then I will go to our brigade and ask the brigade leader to borrow a warehouse. After borrowing the warehouse, we can move there."

If someone builds a house in Wangxie Village, they will borrow a warehouse from the village brigade to live in.

This is a good thing, and the village brigade generally supports it.

Moreover, there are many warehouses in the village, which are usually empty when the food is not collected.

The main people who live there don't live there for free, they have to pay two yuan a month.
