The Era of Hard Work

Chapter 140 Congenial Smell (Subscribe)

Going north on a light motorcycle, the middle-aged man with big ears stopped at the entrance of the Physical Education College first, left two biscuits for the old couple playing the erhu, then wandered around the university town, shared a lot of biscuits along the way, and finally came to the university In a village to the northeast of the city.

Entering the village, one house after another, on the walls of each house, the word "demolition" painted in red paint is particularly eye-catching.

Bright red bright red.

Because the house will be demolished in the spring of next year, most people have already signed an agreement and received compensation to move out, and the village is a bit depressed.

Some people with enough brains, took advantage of the time before the demolition, and simply rented the house to outsiders to work.

Like Fang Daer, many outsiders came here to seek a living.

The difference is that everyone else is working seriously on the construction site.

The motorcycle turned into a yard, and someone shouted, "Fourth, how long has it been?"

On the other hand, the big-eared middle-aged man mentioned the bag of sesame seed cakes and said, "By the way, I bought two stewed meat sesame seed cakes. They are delicious. I want to eat them again after eating them once."

There were several other people who lived in the same yard. Taking advantage of the sunny noon, they set up a table in the yard. Several dishes were placed on the table, and there was the sound of cooking in the kitchen.

"How is the deal going on?" someone asked.

The middle-aged man shook his head: "We didn't talk well, it's the first time we meet, so be careful."

The first person to speak remembered something: "Fourth, don't get out of the car in a hurry, there is no wine, go buy a bottle of wine, and buy a few glasses by the way, one-time use is fine."

The fourth child took a look, and went out to push the cart again: "You guys eat first, I'll be back in a while."

Riding on a motorcycle, I went to the only remaining consignment store in the village, passing by a small alley, and saw three people tinkering with something in a dilapidated house with a collapsed courtyard wall.

In a hurry to buy wine, the fourth child didn't look carefully. He went to the consignment store and called for a long time before opening the door. He bought three bottles of Lanling Daqu and disposable cups and walked back.

Passing through that small alley again, a lot of smoke was coming out of the broken house with the courtyard wall down. The three of them were squatting beside a fire, and a young man was putting logs into the fire. , middle-aged people can see that there seem to be two big oval mud eggs in the fire.

Look carefully, there is reconciled mud next to it, and there are many long brown feathers on the mud, which seem to be from the tail of a bird.

The fourth child has been here for a few months, and he has encountered some kind of chicken with this kind of tail feathers.

Then thinking of the muddy eggs burned in the fire, the fourth child had some associations.

There is an old saying in the countryside that there is no distinction between greed and laziness.

The fourth child, who can let parents and children go out to beg, has the characters lazy engraved into his bones, and the characters greedy are also tightly entwined.

The people in the broken house saw him and the wine in his hand.

"What's the matter?" Someone stood up and stared at him.

The fourth child looked carefully. This man was tall and handsome, but his shoulders drooped, giving people a very unscrupulous feeling.

"Go buy wine." The fourth child lifted the bottle: "I happened to be passing by here."

He glanced at the long brown tail hair, swallowed quietly, and asked tentatively, "Are you playing chicken?"

The unscrupulous person on the opposite side said: "Yes." He seemed to have noticed the eyes of the fourth child, and asked directly: "Brother, do you like this?"

The fourth child was about to salivate when he thought of the things in the fire, so he quickly swallowed it and said, "I haven't eaten this since I came out to roam around, so I'm thinking too hard."

The unscrupulous person said: "Come here, you give me wine, I will give you meat."

The fourth child was a little hesitant at first, but after looking at the unscrupulous person again, he felt that he was not stingy, and he was quite similar to himself. He always felt that he was a fellow, so he immediately parked his motorcycle and passed over the collapsed courtyard wall.

"Master, how is it?" There were two young people squatting there, one of them asked, "Is it enough?"

The unscrupulous person glanced at it and said, "Not enough! Red soldiers, tear down the door. This door is rotten. Use your foot to open it as firewood! Keep the used ones in the house and use them next time!"

The fourth child handed over the wine and the cup sincerely, and briefly introduced himself: "Everyone calls me the fourth child."

He was more or less careful.

"You can just call me Lao Qi." Lao Qi picked up a bottle of wine, bit open the bottle cap, and sniffed it: "I haven't drunk Daqu for a long time, this taste is really delicious."

He urged: "Xiaoguang, Red Soldier, keep burning!"

The fourth child moved a few broken bricks and sat by the fire, watching the two big mud bastards inside rubbing their hands together, as if they couldn't wait any longer.

Lao Qi sat next to him: "I can't eat hot tofu in a hurry, hold my breath!"

The fourth child smiled: "Hey! Hey! Wait! I'm waiting!"

Lao Qi asked: "Do you hear your accent from other places?"

"Yes, from the west." The fourth child said vaguely, "It's not easy these days, come out and find a way to make a living."

"Brother, are you local? What do you do?" he asked.

"Local." Lao Qi was also vague: "The construction site is working hard, and there is no future."

The fourth child took a long tail hair and asked, "Brother, you caught it."

Lao Qi laughed: "I don't need to take action on this thing, our apprentices caught it."

The young man who was adding fire interjected: "My master, he is a famous figure, flying in the sky, running on the ground, swimming in the water, there is nothing he can't think of."

The fourth child was surprised: "Really?"

The two communicated and found that they had a lot in common.

When the things were ready, the mud shell was knocked open, and the smell of meat wafted out, and the four of them were already familiar with each other.

The wine is poured, and the meat is torn apart, which is very pleasant.

In fact, this thing does not necessarily have to be carefully cooked and delicious, but what people eat is not only meat, but also an atmosphere.

A dilapidated house with rotten walls, a bonfire, and a glass of wine. For the fourth and seventh children, this day is happier than being a god!

One chicken leg was killed, two glasses of wine were drunk, and the fourth child found that the seventh wife liked him, and what he thought and said went directly to his heart.

They talked about serious business, such as hunting rabbits, fishing for fish and digging out bird nests, digging pits with nets...

There are endless things to eat and play.

The fourth child is somewhat ashamed of himself, and the more he talks about it, the more he feels that the seventh child is amazing!

After three glasses of wine, the fourth child took the seventh arm by the arm and said, "Brother, brother lives in this village, No. 18 Wai Hutong, if you have anything to do, come and find me, there is nothing to say!"

Lao Qisan drank a glass of wine, his face didn't blush and his heart skipped a beat, he said, "Fourth, my two disciples and I often come out for toothbrush sacrifices, usually at this place, you're not far away, come here if you see smoke here."

"Okay!" The fourth child smiled happily: "Next time, my brother will treat you to a good drink!"

He said something to the old seven disciples again, got out of the courtyard wall in a daze, got on the motorcycle and walked back.

"Master!" Xiaoguang reminded: "It's almost time, we should go back, don't delay going to work in the afternoon."

Lao Qi said: "Clean up a little bit, bury the fire, and let's go! In this life, it's cool to have wine and meat. Don't be like your big brother, just drink a little wine, don't smoke, and just know how to do it all day long." Buying and selling, what's the fun in living."

He walked out: "When you come next time, remember to call the fourth child, he is quite interesting."

Bang-dang-dang-dang-

A child was passing by the market with an enamel jar. Lu Dong was attracted by the noise and glanced over there. The child was dressed in tatters, and a snot from the river was almost hanging down to his chin. He sucked it up vigorously, barking Drilled back into the nose.

Then, the snot fell out little by little, and fell over the mouth, and the child sucked again.

Lu Dong quickly turned around and pinched his red nose.

This is a technical job that requires talent, and ordinary people really can't play it.

On the opposite side, Qiao Weiguo was standing behind the stewed pork pancake stand, holding the iron weights, and his hands were not too cold.

Lu Dong just found out today that an iron lump was attached to the bottom of the weight with an iron chain, which made the weight even heavier.

Over the past few months, Qiao Weiguo has been like this every day. This kind of perseverance is rare among ordinary people.

Li Wenyue came from the north, said hello to Qiao Weiguo first, went to the bucket to wash his hands, sat next to Lu Dong, put a bamboo stick through the kohlrabi, and said: "Hei Dan let me tell you that she has an aerobics class tonight, so she won't come gone."

Lu Dong was curious: "She's new?"

Li Wenyue said: "Heidan asked me to borrow a book from the Provincial University Library. I just went to give it to her. After chatting for a while, Heidan Xinbao said that the paid class was a new bodybuilding class introduced from abroad. Fuck, a teacher borrowed the school space to open it, and she can't find a good job in the future, and she can make money teaching these things like her."

Lu Dong smiled: "She thinks a lot."

Li Wenyue told the truth: "Heidan has more brains than I thought." He turned to ask: "Listen to my dad, our village has started to cut down trees?"

"Yes." Lu Dong said simply: "There are many places in our village that are waiting for money in the next few years. The third grandfather wants to develop a side business, so he cut down the tree and sold it as start-up capital."

Li Wenyue said: "There is a man from Nanshan in my class. He is a village that makes aluminum alloys. He is very wealthy. He gets a lot of dividends a year. Our village started a bit late."

Lu Dong probably knew what Li Wenyue was talking about, and said with a smile, "It's not too late. If we seize the opportunity, our village can develop as well."

Li Wenyue asked, "What can I do?"

Lu Dong thought about it: "Study hard, broaden your horizons, learn your skills well, and give advice to our village in the future."

"Hmm!" Li Wenyue was very serious.

Lu Dong stopped what he was doing, and his thoughts diverged a bit. The former Lujia Village was destroyed by the flood. He has already reversed the fate of Lujia Village. It is unknown where Lujia Village will go in the future.

Everyone hopes that their hometown will get better and better.

After helping Lu Dong dress for an hour, Li Wenyue said, "I have to go back to school and go to the library at night."

Lu Dong nodded: "Okay, you can go back."

Li Wenyue left, Lu Dong packed up the dishes, and said to the opposite side, "Wei Guo, let's use your wrist!"

Qiao Weiguo put down the weight, shook his arms to relax, and sat opposite Lu Dong, with his right hand resting on the table.

Jiao Sanhei ran over: "I'll be the referee."

Lu Dong stretched out his hand, held Qiao Weiguo's hand, and got ready.

Jiao Sanhei looked at Lu Dong, then at Qiao Weiguo, and shouted, "Start!"

Qiao Weiguo suddenly exerted strength, trying to break Lu Dong's hand.

During this time, Qiao Weiguo was exercising, and Lu Dong didn't let it go. Not to mention anything else, there was a lot of hard work every day.

Lu Dong also used his strength to break Qiao Weiguo's hand and press it on the table.

"The strength has improved." Lu Dong broke Qiao Weiguo very easily last time.

Qiao Weiguo touched his bald head and smiled.

Jiao Sanhei said: "Dongzi, let's break one too!"

Qiao Weiguo shook his hand: "Sanhei, I'll talk after you win."

Busy until 8:30 in the evening, the Malatang stall was basically sold out. Lu Dong packed up and went back to the village. When he passed the village, he found that the big tree at the village was gone, leaving only a bare stump.
