38 Rejected, plans to buy a bike

On the street not far from the township government.

Wang Yuan looked at the beautiful Xu Yao and was silent for a long time before saying:

"Plans for the future? Planning means living well."

"Huh? That's it?" Xu Yao couldn't help but reveal a hint of disappointment in her eyes.

"Life is very simple, but living well is still very rare." Wang Yuan said with a smile: "First make more money, and then do something more interesting, more free and happy, it is wonderful to think about it."

"Something of interest?"

"I can't give you an accurate answer now. After all, people's thoughts will change. Three years later, five years later, or ten years later, the specific things of interest are likely to be different. But in general terms

, are all things of interest..."

Before Wang Yuan finished speaking, Xu Yao asked again: "That..."

"What's the matter?"

"Grandma Man said that you have been looking for opportunities to work in a forest farm. Can you really get into a forest farm? I heard that it is quite difficult to get into a forest farm."

"Forest farm?" Wang Yuan was stunned. When had he ever said such a thing? Grandma Man couldn't have made it up for him, right?

Xu Yao was very smart. She fell silent the moment she understood something.

Both of them were silent for a few seconds. Wang Yuan smiled and said: "What about you? What are your thoughts about the future?"

"I..." Xu Yao's eyes instantly glowed: "I want to go to Shenzhen."

"Ahem, why are you going to Shenzhen? You are a woman."

"What's wrong with women? Comrade Wang Yuan, your thoughts are outrageous. Women can still hold up half of the sky... Many people are running to Shenzhen, and many people have become rich.

One of my grandfathers lives in Baodao. He came back some time ago and brought a lot of good things.

He also told us about the United States, the United Kingdom, Singapore and other countries. If there is a chance, I would like to go out and take a look."

Xu Yao said yearningly: "We are so poor here. It is said that the money people make in one day is equal to what we make in a year. The lights and telephones upstairs and downstairs..."

Wang Yuan was silent for a moment.

Although they live in rural areas, many people do not know everything. For people like the Xu Yao family who have relatives outside and come back to visit them, it is normal for them to know some things.

It's just that my understanding is quite one-sided. People who come back from abroad rarely say anything bad about the outside world, because it affects the approval process.

In this era, if you are born in a rural area and can pass high school, even if you don't go to college in the end, you are considered a great person.

It seems understandable that Xu Yao is high-spirited and longs for the outside world.

After walking on the road for a while, the two returned to their parents. The parents chatted again and then went home.

Along the way, Grandma Man kept asking Wang Yuan for his opinion, but the latter remained silent, which made Grandma Man angry. When they got home, Grandma Man pulled him and said anxiously:

"Xiaoyuan, what are you doing with your wiry head and droopy head? Can you please give me some advice? That girl Xu Yao is quite beautiful. Don't you like her?"

"It's not a question of whether you can watch it or not. I feel that Xu Yao is very high-spirited."

After Wang Yuan heard the footsteps, he turned his head and looked to the rear right, only to see his cousins ​​Wang Meng and Wang Hu approaching sneakily, their faces full of gossip.

"Hey, brother, are you going on a blind date? How's it going? Is my sister-in-law pretty?" Wang Hu said with a mean smile on his face.

"Get out of here, don't let me give you a shot."

"Huh? This is a beating. Is it because your sister-in-law is ugly that you are angry?"

Grandma Man glanced at Wang Meng and Wang Hu, ignored them, and said directly to Wang Yuan:

"They are all rural people, so how can they be high-spirited? Her parents are also real farmers... Besides, Xu Yao graduated from high school, and you, Xiaoyuan, also graduated from high school. Xiaoyuan, you think too much."

Grandma Man sat at Wang Yuan's house for a while, chatted for a while and then left.

She came again at noon the next day, her face as black as the bottom of a pot. She brought news about the woman - Xu Yao said that she wanted to find a partner of the same age. Wang Yuan was two years older than Xu Yao, so it was not suitable.

.

In fact, this is an excuse, just a tactful way to express that the woman does not like Wang Yuan.

Wang Yuan breathed a sigh of relief.

Grandma Man thought Wang Yuan was sad, so she quickly took a few puffs from the big pipe and said directly:

"Xiaoyuan, don't be depressed, it's okay! I'll introduce you to someone tomorrow. I know all these beautiful girls from ten miles around. Well, I promise to introduce someone more beautiful than Xu Yao."

She thought that all the mutton was eaten in her stomach, but she didn't get the thing done. This thing was done very wrong.

"Ahem, Grandma Man, don't be impatient. It's better to wait for a while." Wang Yuan was a little exhausted.

A few days passed by in a flash.

It’s noon this day.

Wang Yuan wanted to ride his grandfather's bicycle to the countryside to buy some pork, but when he arrived at his grandfather's house, he found out that the bicycle tire was punctured.

Gudu Gudu~

Take out the black inner tube, inflate it and press it into the basin. A string of bubbles will come out.

This bicycle was quite old, and Wang Yuan rode it frequently during this period, which also aggravated the damage to the bicycle.

Wang Yuan squatted next to his grandfather and said: "Grandpa, let's go to the countryside to repair the bicycle. If the car breaks down, it must be repaired."

"Okay, I'll go find your grandma to get the money." Grandpa stood up and said.

"No need to look for grandma, I have money."

"What are you spending your money on? Keep your money to marry a wife."

The grandfather and grandson pushed the bicycles to the countryside and brought air tubes with them. The air in the tires would run out every few minutes, so they had to inflate the tires every few minutes.

The tires were easy to repair, but Wang Yuan realized that it was time to buy a bicycle.

My grandfather’s family, my second uncle’s family, and my third uncle’s family all have bicycles, but my own family doesn’t have one.

Of course, if Wang Yuan rides his grandfather's bicycle, his grandfather won't think anything of it. After all, he is his grandson.

But it really delayed Grandpa's business when he took the bicycle away. Sometimes Grandpa didn't have to ride even if he wanted to.

The next morning.

Wang Yuan got on the small forest train pulling wood again. He planned to go to the city to buy a bicycle. Woohoo~ Besides, besides~

"Little train~swinging melody~"

Wang Yuan sat in the dark carriage. He didn't feel that the swinging melody was very beautiful, but the aroma of pine wood was indeed very good.

He staggered all the way to the city. After getting off the carriage, the dazzling sunlight made it difficult for him to open his eyes.

"Little brother, you have to figure it out on your own when you go back."

"Yeah, I know, thank you, brother." Wang Yuan said hello to the uniformed forest farm station staff, and then found the right direction and walked south.

Walk through the streets and alleys.

Soon after arriving at the door of Li Hang's house, Wang Yuan knocked on the door: "Li Hang, are you at home? I know you are at home, come out quickly~dong dong dong~"

To buy a bicycle, you need an industrial ticket, which is provided by the state, but is only given to some high-level factory workers and unit personnel.

Wang Yuan didn't have an industrial ticket, so he could only find a way with Li Hang first. If Li Hang couldn't do anything, then he would find other ways.
