During the pushing and pulling process, the wretched middle-aged man squeezed Lin Mai's hand very obviously, and smiled at her, showing his big yellow teeth, which made Lin Mai feel sick until she wanted to vomit.
She knew she was being stalked by a lecherous scoundrel.
Although she is currently a seventeen-year-old girl, she has been a human being for two lifetimes. Will she take a scoundrel seriously?
If you have to pull the cart, let him pull it.
While the two were walking and chatting, the lecherous middle-aged rogue man told Lin Mai that his name was Qian Guoliang, and he also lived in Sanyang Village. He had no father, no mother, no brothers, sisters, and no wife or children.
Qian Guodongliang?
This name sounds so familiar.
Lin Mai thought about it for a long time, and finally remembered that there was a sports celebrity named Liu Guoliang in his previous life.
If this middle-aged wretched man was also named Liu, it would be the worst time Liu Guoliang was hacked.
Qian Guoliang smiled obscenely and said: "If I knew yesterday that you were going to buy a house, I would definitely stop you.
My house is bigger and nicer than the one you bought, and you and your wife can live in it for free."
How could Lin Mai not understand what he was planning!
He smiled and said: "You think it's just me and my daughter, how can I have the nerve to live in your house with a large family?"
"What about the others? Why didn't they see it?"
"It's not here yet. It will come in the afternoon and you can see it."
When Qian Guoliang heard this, he immediately lost interest in her. He said that he had other things to do, dropped the cart and ran away.
Lin Mai didn't care and dragged the cart to the dock to set up the stall.
Most people who take the ferry are locals.
Because most locals have jobs and sources of income, they are more willing to spend than tourists coming out of the train station.
As soon as Linmai's chestnuts were fried, passers-by followed the aroma and came to buy them. The business was better than at the train station. Eighty kilograms of chestnuts were sold out in two hours.
Lin Mai glanced at the watch her grandma lent her on her wrist. It was already past four in the afternoon. Why haven't Grandpa Fang and the others arrived yet?
Just as I was thinking this, I heard the sound of a tractor, but it was a little distant.
She turned around and saw a tractor approaching from a distance, and soon she could see the people standing in the carriage.
There are Grandpa Fang, Tieniu’s family of three and Doudou.
Doudou saw her on the tractor and excitedly waved her little hands and called her mother.
Lin Mai responded to the little guy with a smile.
As soon as the tractor stopped, Doudou couldn't wait to let Grandpa Fang carry her off.
Lin Mai hurriedly ran over and hugged her off the tractor: "Grandpa is too old, so how can I hug you? What if I miss you?"
Grandpa Fang chuckled and said, "How can I be that old?"
Lin Mai hurriedly said: "Grandpa is not old, grandpa is always young."
Doudou also copied and pasted the words and shouted, making everyone laugh.
Lin Mai quickly closed the stall, pulled a cart and took everyone to the house she had not yet fully bought out.
Tieniu jumped off the tractor in a hurry: "I'll do it."
He took the cart from Lin Mai and came to pull it, but Lin Mai was not polite to him.
In less than half an hour, the tractor stopped in front of Lin Mai's new home.
Except for Grandpa Fang, no one knew that she had signed a contract for the house. They all thought it was rented and asked her how much the rent was.
Lin Mai made up an amount at random.
Except Doudou and Niuniu, everyone moved the chestnuts into the main room together.
The array was so big that many villagers came to watch, and some enthusiastic villagers even came to help carry it.
Some villagers asked curiously what was in the sack.
Lin Mai honestly told them it was chestnut.
She couldn't hide this matter, so she was selling fried chestnuts at the dock. The villagers would see her sooner or later, so she might as well take the initiative and leave a good impression on the villagers by being frank.
Immediately some villagers chased me and asked, "What are you doing with these chestnuts?"
Lin Mai smiled and replied: "It's for speculation."
City people, even farmers in urban villages, are smarter than farmers in towns and villages.
Since the planned economy, Jiangcheng has not seen roasted chestnuts sold for many years.
If there are fried chestnuts for sale, there will definitely be many people buying them.
Many people's eyes lit up and they asked: "Where did you get these chestnuts?"
Lin Mai lied and didn't draft: "Northeast."
Just these two words immediately made all the villagers give up the idea of doing chestnut business.
They are not that capable of bringing in chestnuts from the Northeast. People who can get goods from other provinces are very energetic people in this era.
When those villagers looked at Lin Mai, they no longer thought she was ordinary, she seemed to be very powerful.
Lin Mai was very happy that she bought two packs of cigarettes. After moving the chestnuts, she gave out a cigarette to everyone who helped.
She has never been stingy and bought the kind of good cigarettes that cost more than a pack.
The villagers who helped held cigarettes between their ears and left happily.
At this time, it was revealed that Qian Guodong was hiding behind others and spying on Lin Mai. Seeing that Lin Mai was telling the truth, she really took the family with her.
He had originally planned to be a matchmaker for himself and get a pair with Lin Mai, but now his hope was completely shattered and he couldn't get it, but he had to get one of these good cigarettes no matter what.
He licked his face and leaned over, saying to Lin Mai: "Xiao Lin, give me a cigarette."
Lin Mai ignored him and turned to talk to Grandpa Fang.
He didn't help her with the work, so why should she give him cigarettes?
Qian Guodong had no choice but to leave in silence.
There were also a lot of vegetables, rice, flour and oil on the tractor, as well as two jars of pickled vegetables, a basket of eggs, clothes and bedding.
Lin Mai thought it was prepared by Grandma Fang, and said gratefully to Grandpa Fang: "I am only busy with business, and I can't take care of any of this. Fortunately, Grandma prepared it for me, otherwise I would have to buy it on the black market."
Grandpa Fang waved his hand: "Except for the basket of eggs and the clothes and bedding for you and your wife, which were prepared by your Grandma Fang, everything else was prepared by Mother Tieniu. If you want to thank Mother Tieniu, thank Mother Tieniu."
Lin Mai was immediately embarrassed and said apologetically to Tieniu Ma: "Madam, I made a mistake..."
Tieniu was very generous and rushed to say: "What's going on here?"
Even though Tieniu Ma felt uncomfortable at the moment, she still had to pretend to be generous and said with a smile that it didn't matter.
Grandpa Fang looked at Lin Mai's house inside and out as if he were looking at a house bought by his own granddaughter.
He nodded with satisfaction: "This house is nice, solid, and can last for decades."
However, Lin Mai planned to renovate the house into a five-story house as soon as he had money. When the land was demolished in 1990, he could lose a lot of money.
But she didn't tell Grandpa Fang these words.
Because he still had to rush back, Grandpa Fang didn't stay any longer.
Lin Mai hurriedly gave the remaining pack and a half of cigarettes to the tractor master.
The tractor master happily put the pack of cigarettes into his pocket and took Grandpa Fang away with him.
Lin Mai told Niuniu and Doudou to stay at home with Tieniu's mother, and then he and Tieniu pulled the cart out of the stall.
It was time to get off work in the afternoon, and people were coming and going at the pier.
This was Tieniu's first visit to the provincial capital. Looking at the hustle and bustle in front of him, he was stunned for a while.
It was only after Lin Mai called him several times and asked him to start doing business that he came back to his senses.
