Rebirth of the Auto Giant

Chapter 28 Picking up rags

"Son, how much do these shoes cost?"

"More than forty yuan."

"Hey, what did I do?" When the mother heard that she had torn up more than forty yuan with her own hands, she blamed herself even more.

"It's okay, it's all small money."

"What's small money? What does it mean to be big money in your eyes?" The mother even quit after hearing this.

It must be several million anyway.

However, Wang Shi did not dare to say this because Wang Shi was afraid that his father would stab himself with a hookah.

"Lijun, go and call your Uncle Chen over for a drink and build a party. Go and call your second uncle over." The father looked at the dishes on the table and saw a bottle of Maotai on the table and gave instructions.

The two of them immediately walked out of the house and went to report.

The second uncle's house was the closest and he arrived soon. He sat on the table and looked at the four piles of shelled cooked peanuts and a plate of pork on the table. Wang Shi picked up the wine bottle and poured four bowls, starting with three.

While drinking, I waited for Chen Minghua’s father.

"Shitou, is your work in Beijing going well?" the second uncle asked after taking a sip.

"It's...ok." Wang Shi was a little scared when he thought about work and looked at his father.

No one in the family knows about his resignation. I wonder what will happen if they find out, especially his father. He paid for this job with his life. He will quit if he says he doesn’t want to do it. Wang Shi is afraid that he will beat him if he finds out.

.

My father was a veteran who had emerged from the flames of war, and I didn’t know how many Japanese and German soldiers died at his hands.

"It'll be good if everything goes well. I was originally worried that you wouldn't be familiar with the place there, so it's good if everything goes well." The second uncle felt a lot more at ease after hearing Wang Shi's words.

The father took a sip and talked about Wang Shi and Chen Minghua, "I am already sixty-eight today, and my health is getting worse day by day. You are not the youngest. It just so happens that when you come back this time, you will

Your marriage to Minghua has been arranged."

"Otherwise, every time there is a public event in the village, I won't be able to enjoy the old man's wine. In our village, Tiedan and his friends are ten years younger than me, but they also enjoy the old man's wine. As a captain, I am not qualified, although they also come to call me.

, but I don’t have the face to go.”

There is a rule in the village that if there is a business event, the old man in the village will be treated to a free meal, and the standard for this old man is to become a grandfather.

Although my father is over sixty years old, he has no grandchildren, so he is naturally not included in this list.

"Father, it's still early, I'm not in a hurry." I am only 23 years old today. I don't want to go to the grave so early. I want to be single for a few years.

"You're not in a hurry, I'm in a hurry!" When his father heard this, he put down his chopsticks and glared at Wang Shi, "Do you have a lover in Beijing? I can tell you, if you want to marry a beautiful girl in the city, you should get rid of this idea as soon as possible. My wife, I

I only recognize Xiao Hua. If you don't bring anyone else home, I'll break your legs."

The second uncle saw that something was wrong in the atmosphere, and began to smooth things over, "Brother, tell Shitou properly, why do you get angry just talking? Come on, drink, drink."

"Hmph." My father raised the bowl, bumped it with his second uncle, and took a sip. "How did you get such expensive wine? Did you buy it?"

"Brother, what's wrong, this wine...?" The second uncle didn't know the price of this Moutai, but he just thought it tasted a little better than usual.

"Humph, do you know how much a bottle of Maotai liquor costs?" My father rolled his eyes at his second uncle.

"How many?"

"The minimum is 18 yuan."

"What!" The second uncle shouted when he heard that the bottle of wine in front of him cost 18 yuan a bottle.

Good guy, the drink you just drank cost a few cents. This is not drinking, this drinking is money.

"No, how can I have the money to buy such expensive things? This is a gift from others." Wang Shi said firmly.

"What ability do you have to let someone give you such a good wine?" Bastard, you don't know how much you weigh, but I don't know how many people would give you such a good wine?

"Really, it was sent by the leaders of the General Logistics Complex in Beijing. They sent more than one box in total. I came back with four bottles this time. If you don't believe it, just call and ask Uncle Xie."

"Aren't you talking nonsense? How dare you talk on the phone?"

Oh, I forgot, telephones are very high-end these days, not to mention long-distance calls. The phone charges are sky-high. Making long-distance calls just to prove a trivial matter is not a waste of money.

"Tell me how it came about and why the leader of the General Logistics Department gave you a drink. Tell me carefully." My father felt that Wang Shi didn't speak the truth today.

"Okay, you have to believe what you said." Then Wang Shi told him about repairing cars at the General Logistics Courtyard and training for other arms such as armor and engineers. Of course, the matter of resignation will not be discussed for the time being.

Dare to say it.

My father is very angry right now, so now is not the best time.

"When will you know how to repair cars?" My father looked like he would be surprised if he believed you.

"Oh, this was taught by a master from our courtyard."

As he was talking, he heard his sister's cry coming from the alley.

"Who hit you?" Wang Shi saw his sister crying very sadly and felt angry in his heart.

"Uh-huh, brother, they said he was a rag picker in Beijing, right?" My sister Lijun came to Wang Shi and looked at Wang Shi with her eyes.

My sister's bright eyes were like two gleaming swords stabbing at her in the dark night.

Wang Shi couldn't help but tremble in his heart.

"It's nothing." Wang Shi hugged his sister, "Who said this? Tell me something bad."

Wang Shi put his arm around his sister's shoulders, "What happened? Why are you crying?"

"It's them, they said bad things about big brother." The younger sister looked towards the alley.

"I said it!" There was a sound like thunder in the dark night.

Wang Shi looked around and saw a group of people walking towards his home. The one walking at the front was a young man of his own age. He remembered that this man was an educated youth from Beijing who had come to the countryside to go to the village. His name was Mai Xingguang.

Everyone in the village knows that Mai Xingguang likes Chen Minghua, but Chen Minghua doesn't pay much attention to him, and he also knows that this is all because of Wang Shi.

Fortunately, the sky is the limit. Just a few days ago, he finally got results when he asked people to inquire about Wang Shi's affairs in the work unit. Wang Shi also happened to be back today. He wanted to vent his anger in front of everyone.

Let Chen Minghua like herself.

They say good things come in pairs, no, the proof of this has been proven by just returning to the city.

"That's him. He said bad things about my elder brother, saying that you were fired from your job in Beijing and now you are living a life of picking up rags in Beijing." My sister looked at Mai Xingguang and said.

"Did he hit you?" This was the bottom line. If he did, Wang Shi would have to teach this Beijing educated youth a lesson today.

"No."

At this time, Chen Minghua's mother stood up from behind, looked at Wang Shi's face, and asked: "Wang Shi, now you tell me the truth. Is what Xiaomai said the truth?"

"Are you here to interrogate yourself?" Wang Shi frowned, feeling a little unhappy, "Yes, I have lost my job, but it was not my employer who fired me, but my resignation. What's wrong?"

"What, son, you don't have a job anymore, what's going on, why did you quit your job?" The mother almost fell down when she heard this.

This is a big deal for the mother. Now that her son has no job, will he come back to farm?

Isn’t this the laughing stock of the whole village?
