Early the next morning, Wang Gang woke up before dawn, went to the toilet to exercise, and when he came back, he found He Yuyu cleaning the house for him.
"Brother Gangzi, why is your house so messy?"
He Yuyu put away Wang Gang's dirty clothes and prepared to wash them for him.
When Wang Gang saw He Yuyu acting like this, he knew that she had agreed to his confession.
Otherwise, no matter how good the relationship between the two is, it would be unreasonable for He Yuyu, a big girl, to take care of a single man's house.
"Yu Yu, I have to go to work today. When I have the weekend off, let's go shopping at the front door!" Wang Gang took He Yu Yu's little hand and said proactively.
He Yuyu's body was a little stiff at first, but he quickly recovered and did not stop Wang Gang's bold movements.
Wang Gang did not take any further action except pulling He Yuyu's hand. In this era, pulling the small hands of unmarried men and women is already considered a very ambiguous action. Going further would be a mistake.
"Brother Gangzi, let me discuss something with you!" He Yuyu raised his head and said to Wang Gang.
"I agree to whatever you say," Wang Gang said, squeezing He Yuyu's soft, boneless little hand.
"I won't graduate from high school for half a year, and I want to get married after graduation." He Yuyu said carefully.
He Yuyu is actually an adult. According to the Marriage Law, a woman can get married at the age of 18. It was not until 1980 that the Marriage Law was revised and a woman did not reach the legal age until she was 20 years old.
"No problem, I can wait." Wang Gang said firmly.
"In the past six months, we must not act beyond our limits." He Yuyu said firmly.
Wang Gang smiled and said: "Okay, I will listen to you in everything."
He Yuyu breathed a sigh of relief. She was not an ignorant girl. She knew that men were hot-blooded and sometimes couldn't stand it. She was afraid that Wang Gang just wanted to play with her, so she set a test period for the next six months.
"My brother said that you should spend the Chinese New Year with our family this year," He Yuyu said while helping Wang Gang clean up the house.
"Who else is celebrating the New Year besides you?" Wang Gang asked.
"There is a grandpa, a grandma, and Mrs. Long." He Yuyu thought of something and suddenly said: "By the way, Mrs. Long said to call Lou Xiao'e."
Wang Gang changed his clothes, nodded and said: "Sister Lou just got divorced and severed ties with her parents. She is alone during the Chinese New Year. She is really pitiful."
He Yuyu put down his dirty clothes and said to Wang Gang seriously: "I tell you, stay away from Lou Xiao'e from now on."
"Hey! Are you jealous?" Wang Gang laughed.
He Yuyu rolled his eyes at Wang Gang and said, "I don't know what you men are thinking about. Although Lou Xiao'e is divorced, she is still young and beautiful. You can't imitate my brother."
"I'm not from your He family. I have no interest in widows or divorced women." Wang Gang took He Yuyu's little hand and said:
"Don't worry, I will only treat you well from now on."
He Yuyu's little face turned red all of a sudden, and he said a little shyly: "My aunt once said that a man's mouth is unreliable."
Wang Gang said with a smile: "If you are worried about me, you might as well worry about your brother. He likes to get involved with widows and divorced women. Don't mess up Teacher Ran's good marriage."
He Yuyu nodded solemnly and said: "I have to remind my brother that he is too soft-hearted and cannot look down on pitiful women."
After saying that, He Yuyu stopped cleaning up the house and ran home quickly to talk to He Yuzhu.
Wang Gang watched the furious He Yuyu leave and couldn't help but shake his head. The fragrance of He Yuyu's body was still in his hand.
"It seems that during this period, I have to start buying some belongings." Wang Gang looked at the empty home and thought about how he would get married in six months and have to buy everything.
Wang Gang looked at his space. He still had some money. He just wanted to buy three turns and one ring. He also needed tickets and industrial coupons.
He had tickets for bicycles and sewing tickets, but not for radios and watches.
While Wang Gang was thinking about how to get tickets, he walked out of the compound and prepared to go to work, but he suddenly saw someone outside the compound.
"Zhao Zihao?"
Wang Gang discovered that Zhao Zihao was standing furtively outside the courtyard, glancing towards the courtyard from time to time. When he saw Wang Gang, his eyes suddenly lit up and he walked over in three steps at a time.
"How do you know I live here?" Wang Gang said to Zhao Zihao with a somewhat unkind expression.
"Brother Wang, don't get me wrong. I come to you with no ill intentions. I just want to pay a visit to your master." Zhao Zihao nodded and bowed.
Wang Gang looked at Zhao Zihao's severed finger and his expression became slightly better.
"I told Master about you, but he doesn't want to see you."
Zhao Zihao sighed and said: "My master Niu Yunfei once had a relationship with Master Lu. Before his death, he wanted to see Master Lu again and make friends through martial arts."
Wang Gang didn't believe Zhao Zihao's words. After all, it was just a one-time relationship.
"Tell me your true reason for coming!"
Zhao Zihao felt a little embarrassed and hesitated for a long time before saying: "Brother Wang, do you still have food on hand?"
Wang Gang also guessed that Zhao Zihao came to him for money.
"I have no food." Wang Gang shook his head.
In fact, he still has a lot of food in his space, but he is not planning to sell it and wants to keep it for emergencies.
Zhao Zihao was a little disappointed when he heard this.
As the New Year approaches, life is difficult for everyone. Zhao Zihao and his wife Niu Meilan hang out in the pigeon market and must not have a serious job, so they resell grain to make money, and even sell everything at home.
Wang Gang thought of Niu Meilan's Big Dragon stamp, then looked at Zhao Zihao's severed finger, and finally said:
"I really don't have much food on hand, but I have a batch of Daxing pears. Do you want to harvest them?"
Zhao Zihao raised his head fiercely and said, "Daxing pears? There are Daxing pears this month. Are they frozen pears?"
"It's not a frozen pear, it's a fresh pear." Wang Gang pretended to take out a pear from his pocket and handed it to Zhao Zihao.
Zhao Zihao squeezed it tentatively, and the juice of the pear flowed down.
"So fresh?" Zhao Zihao said in surprise.
Daxing pears are not uncommon and can also be found in Sijiu City, but it depends on the month.
Because of the inconvenience of transportation and storage in this era, it is difficult to preserve fresh fruits, and there are fewer fruits out of season.
There are very few fresh pears on the market in Sijiu City now. In another month, when the weather turns cold, they will disappear.
Zhao Zihao saw the business opportunities inside.
"Brother Wang, how many pears do you have on hand? Are they all as fresh as this?" Zhao Zihao said excitedly.
"I have a lot on hand, at least a few hundred kilograms. If you want it, what price can you give me?" Wang Gang pulled Zhao Zihao to a remote corner and asked.
"The price is two cents per catty, I want as much as you have." Zhao Zihao said.
Wang Gang said: "Fifty cents per pound, no counter-offer."
Zhao Zihao said in surprise: "This price is too high. You must know that the weather is getting colder and colder, and pears are easy to freeze. Even if they weigh several hundred kilograms, I won't be able to sell them all in a short time."
Wang Gang said: "Don't be afraid that the pears will be frozen. I have a way to keep them fresh."
Zhao Zihao was stunned for a moment, then became ecstatic.
"Brother Wang, you are saying that you have a way to preserve fresh fruits."
Wang Gang nodded and said, "I can give you fresh pears in a month."
Zhao Zihao's body started to tremble. A month later, it was almost January. It was the coldest time in Sijiu City. There were still fresh fruits in the dead of winter. I couldn't believe it.
