At seven o'clock the next morning, Jiang Nan put on an old cotton-padded jacket, a Lei Feng hat on his head, and went out with a snakeskin bag on his back.

It is already the tenth day of the twelfth lunar month, and more and more people are coming to the countryside to buy New Year's goods. Most of them bring their children to buy new clothes, and they also buy some New Year's goods, mainly candies and dry goods.

The wonton shop opened early, and there were several people sitting in the shop at the moment, all eating wontons with their heads down.

Wang Xia was wearing an apron and sitting at the table making wontons. When she saw someone coming in with a snakeskin bag on his back, she didn't know who it was and said, "Master, do you want wontons or noodles?"

"Auntie, it's me, Jiangnan." Jiangnan put down the snakeskin bag and took off his hat and said.

When Wang Xia saw him dressed like this, she burst into laughter and said, "Jiangnan, why are you dressed like this?"

"It's cold, wear more clothes..." Jiang Nan said sheepishly.

"Oh, have you had breakfast? Auntie will cook wontons for you."

"Well, please, Auntie, I want two bowls." Jiang Nan took out two dollars and put them into the bucket where Wang Xia collected money.

Wang Xia didn't show any pretense and nodded, accepting it.

Jiang Nan liked this very much. If Wang Xia refused to accept the money, he would be embarrassed to come here in the future.

"Jiangnan, auntie told you yesterday to bring a cup. Auntie has hot water here. Did you bring it?" Wang Xia asked while cooking wontons.

"Bring it, Auntie." Jiang Nan took out his thermos cup from the snakeskin bag and lit it up.

"Put it on the table. Auntie will cook the wontons and pour hot water for you later. Don't go back at noon. Auntie will cook more vegetables, so you can eat with her. Xiaofen will eat here too." Wang

Xia said with a smile.

"Okay, Auntie, I'll excuse you." Jiang Nan replied with a smile.

Jiangnan laid out the oilcloth, arranged the Spring Festival couplets divided yesterday according to different contents from the snakeskin bags, placed them on the oilcloth, took the glass strips, and pressed them.

Yesterday, the uncle who sells glass in the supply and marketing cooperative saw Jiang Nan picking up glass from the waste glass pile, and even specially polished the edges for him to prevent him from scratching his hand.

After placing the Spring Festival couplets, Jiang Nan placed the word "Fu" on the side and nodded with satisfaction.

Wang Xia took a small horse tie from the store and gave it to Jiangnan. Jiangnan thanked her, sat in front of the stall, and started setting up the stall for the first time.

The villagers who were coming and going saw that the person setting up the stall was a child, and they all gathered around him curiously, pointing and whispering something, but no one came forward to ask.

"Spring couplets, they are of good quality. It will be so festive to buy one and take it home." Jiang Nan greeted him twice with a smile, but still no one came forward to buy. Jiang Nan looked at the many villagers watching the fun in front of him and felt a little anxious.

Damn, it’s so embarrassing. I just said hello and no one responded.

In the store, a chubby young man was eating wontons and looking at Jiang Nan who was setting up a stall outside. He asked curiously: "Boss, do you know the kid who is setting up a stall outside? How come he is so young and setting up a stall?"

Wang Xia glanced outside and said with a smile: "That kid is the son of the director of our supply and marketing cooperative. He came out to set up a stall during the winter vacation to exercise and earn some pocket money, just for fun."

"Oh? The director's son has such a good family situation and yet he sets up a stall. This kid is really amazing. My younger brother looks older than him, but he doesn't want to do anything at home."

The young man heard that he was the son of the director of the supply and marketing cooperative and couldn't help but admire him.

After eating the wontons, he paid and went to the street stall in Jiangnan.

"Brother, how do you sell these Spring Festival couplets?" The fat boy pointed at one of the gold-lettered Spring Festival couplets and said to Jiang Nan.

"These spring couplets with gold characters cost three yuan a pair. If you want them, I will give you two more blessing characters." Jiang Nan said with a smile.

"Give me two pairs." The fat boy readily counted out ten dollars and handed them to Jiang Nan.

"Brother, I'm asking you four yuan." Jiang Nan handed the change to the fat boy, and then handed him the wrapped Spring Festival couplets.

The fat boy patted Jiang Nan on the shoulder and said with emotion: "Young man, good job!"

After saying that, he separated from the crowd and pushed the bicycle away.

Everyone saw that someone was the first to buy it, and a few more people paid for it one after another, but most people just waited and watched.

Jiang Nan was a little speechless. There was no excitement to see here. Why were there still people watching? Wouldn't this delay my business?

Jiang Nan was embarrassed when he suddenly saw the crowd chirping and looking towards him.

Jiang Nan turned around and saw that there was a country woman standing next to him. She was wearing a thick old cotton-padded jacket and her head was wrapped in a red scarf unique to rural women. Before Jiang Nan could see who it was, he heard her greeting her.

Already.

"Folks, the Spring Festival couplets of the supply and marketing cooperative are the same. Look at the printing quality. Look at the paper. We only sell it for three yuan or two. Look at the big gold characters. The family will be prosperous. Look at the content.

, Business is booming all over the world, how wonderful to say..." The woman greeted, while turning back and giving Jiang Nan a fancy smile.

"Holy shit, Ruhua...oh, it turns out to be Jin Beibei." Jiang Nan was startled and almost fell off the horse.

It's just that she was dressed up in such a down-to-earth way, with cotton shoes, corduroy trousers, floral cotton-padded jacket, and an enchanting red scarf that Jiang Nan thought her aunt was here.

Before Jiang Nan could react, Jin Beibei was already very busy over there.

In the distance, Zhou Cunqing, director of the supply and marketing cooperative, got up early and on a whim, called the secretary, the two deputy directors, the general accountant, and several managers. They went to Xiaochuan Restaurant for morning tea and chatted for a while.

At this moment, Zhou Cunqing led a group of people just out of the hotel. Everyone was walking and laughing, and they heard Jin Beibei's cry from a distance, "The same Spring Festival couplets from the supply and marketing cooperative...the price is cheaper..."

Zhou Cunqing's face turned dark. Who is it? Why are you setting up a stall under the name of a supply and marketing cooperative? This is really unreasonable.

The general accountant Zhao Changlong had sharp ears and even sharper eyes. He pointed at Jin Beibei in the distance and said maliciously: "Oh, Jin Gui, isn't that your girl?"

Jin Gui glanced at it and his face turned red.

Isn't that my daughter? What is she wearing? Hey, why is there a country bumpkin wearing a Lei Feng hat next to me? Who is this? Could it be that my daughter is in love behind my back? How about finding a decent one?

Ah, find a street vendor.

Now even if the man is Jiang Nan or Wang Sihai, he is not so embarrassed.

The other managers were also a little confused. You looked at me, I looked at you, and finally they all looked at Jin Gui. Jin Gui wanted to find a crack in the ground and crawl into it.

"Hey, look, there's a country boy next to him... Where's the young man from the countryside, Jin Gui, is that your uncle?" Deputy Director Zhang Zhizhou also saw Jiang Nan next to him, but he didn't recognize him, and he also looked bad.

Said with a smile.

When he said this, everyone looked at him with disdain and said to themselves, "Don't you think we haven't seen it? It's over, you can expose other people's scars in front of their faces."

"Ahem, Director Zhou, that's my son Jiang Nan." Jiang Dongping said calmly with a calm face.

"Yesterday, my son came to me and said that it was winter vacation and he wanted to experience life. He wanted to set up a street stall to sell Spring Festival couplets. He asked me where to purchase goods. I said that the goods in our unit are all supplied by the county supply and marketing cooperative and we cannot provide them to him. For his

I neither supported nor opposed the idea, nor did I give him a penny. Wasn't Director Zhang nearby when my son mentioned this? How could he have forgotten it?" After speaking, Jiang Dongping turned back and glanced at Zhang Zhizhou.

After Jiang Dongping finished speaking, everyone suddenly realized that if they took a closer look, it was not Jiangnan.

Zhou Cunqing also looked at Zhang Zhizhou with a dark face and thought to himself, it turns out that you knew it and didn't tell it in private. What do you mean by saying it on purpose?

"Oh, it turns out to be Mr. Jiang. Hey, look at my memory. I have too many things and I have forgotten it. This is indeed what happened yesterday." Zhang Zhizhou said quickly.

"I didn't expect him to start doing it today. I thought he was responsible for it all by himself. I didn't expect this brat to drag Jin Beibei into it, which in turn has affected Manager Jin. I'm really sorry." After saying that, Jiang Dong

Ping glanced at Jin Gui apologetically.

"Hey, it's just to experience life. This is a good thing. If I knew it, I would support it." Jin Gui saw Jiang Dongping trying to smooth things over for him, glanced at Jiang Dongping gratefully, and said.

"Yes, Xiao Jiang's idea is quite good. Later I will ask our Xiaofen to come and help." Xu Zhigao also said with a smile.

"Well, I think it's pretty good. I'll ask Sihai to come over later. That guy can't even read a few pages in a day while sitting at home. Let him come out to enjoy the northwest wind and experience how hard it is to make money." Du Youde also agreed.

said.

"Oh, these two children are really good. I heard that they are also very good at studying. Children of other people's age are either watching TV or playing around during the holidays. I didn't expect that he set up this stall himself. I heard that Director Zhang

My young master got married last year, I wonder where he can get a job?" Zhou Cunqing praised him and didn't forget to turn around and ask Zhang Zhigao.

Zhang Zhigao's old face turned red. His son was already married. He had been idle all day and had no serious job. He coughed twice and stopped talking.

When Zhao Changlong saw that his old boss Zhang Zhizhou was frustrated, he hurriedly said: "Oh, I heard that the son of Director Jiang's family and the daughter of Accountant Xu are very close. Now it seems that they are all rumors, haha, Mr. Jiang and Miss Jin are just

We are childhood sweethearts, a talented man and a beautiful girl. If we can become friends in the future, the business of setting up a stall today will be a good story."

Xu Zhigao's face instantly turned as black as carbon, and he thought to himself: "Zhao, you fucking bastard, I didn't offend you, why did you throw dirty water on my daughter? But this Jiang Shimei gave his daughter a hairpin yesterday."

, why did you hook up with the daughter of the Jingui family again today? I have to remind my silly daughter when I get home.

Everyone glanced at Zhao Changlong again, thinking that Zhao Changlong and Zhang Zhizhou were of the same species. Everyone said they were worthless, but they were indeed worthy of their reputation.
