"No matter how long it takes to pay back, our family will definitely pay back the money even if we have to eat branyan vegetables."
Yu Qiuhua is always like this, her attitude always looks good, but she just doesn't do things.
I'm not a renegade, but I just can't pay the money.
When I was disciplining my children, I told them the truth, and there was nothing I could do about it if the children didn't listen. It was just the same.
"You are not in a hurry. You can afford to wait for ten or eight years. But I have to be anxious. I am waiting to live in that house. There are no doors, windows, or furniture. With a note written by you, I will
You can live there."
It would be better for Liu Hongchang to ask for a white note from the He family than to ask for one, which would make his heart happy.
"Comrade, can I pay an IOU for criminal compensation?" Liu Hongchang turned to the middle-aged policeman and asked.
"Generally, this is not possible, but it also depends on communication between the two of you." The middle-aged policeman replied.
"Then we've communicated. I won't accept the IOU. If nothing happens, I'll go back. There's still a lot of things waiting to be done in the unit."
There is actually no point in arguing about this matter.
The He family can't pay now, and Liu Hongchang can't spare He Wentao.
No matter what, it was impossible to reach an agreement, and Liu Hongchang was ready to return.
"Hong Chang, for the sake of our relationship as husband and wife, can't you forgive our family? Even if we can't be husband and wife, we won't become enemies."
Seeing Liu Hongchang standing up and preparing to leave, He Wenhui stood up and stood in front of Liu Hongchang.
"He Wenhui, please don't mention that husband and wife. Our marriage was when I worked as a paid servant for your family for three months. In addition to spending money for your family, I also served your family, old and young.
, what experiences do we have, how can we have any feelings.
It’s not that I want to become enemies with you. Your family has started to set fire to my house. Who do you think wants to turn the two families into enemies?"
After speaking, Liu Hongchang pushed away He Wenhui who was blocking the way.
"Comrade Liu Hongchang, are you leaving now?" the middle-aged policeman shouted.
"Let's go. If you don't leave, why stay here? Their family won't be able to pay for it. There's no need to communicate about this matter."
Staying would mean watching the two of them act pitifully, entangled in all kinds of entanglements, and Liu Hongchang might compromise, which was meaningless.
After leaving the police station, Liu Hongchang returned to the canteen.
Although there is nothing going on in the cafeteria in the afternoon, this is work.
Don't be too casual. When you have nothing to do, you still have to be in the cafeteria.
"Brother, do you want to play for a while?"
When we returned to the cafeteria, the men gathered together to play cards, and the women gathered together to knit sweaters and gossip.
In this era, employees in many units live like this.
"You guys go play, I'll go read a book for a while."
Playing cards is a good entertainment and a good way to relax in this era.
But four people are enough to play upgrade.
There is no need for Liu Hongchang to ask Liu Zi to make way for him.
If you just want to read a book, the only books you can find now are little people’s books.
It’s not that Liu Hongchang likes to watch this stuff, it’s the original Liu Hongchang who has this hobby.
"Liu Hongchang, Liu Hongchang."
Before he even finished reading the book, Liu Hongchang heard someone calling him outside the cafeteria again.
"Maixiang, why are you here?"
"I'm off work. I'll come find you after get off work."
The conductors of bus companies are actually divided into morning and evening shifts.
Yang Maixiang started the morning shift. She got to work earlier than others, and of course she had to leave earlier than others.
Unlike Liu Hongchang's cafeteria, which only has night shifts, it starts work two hours later than ordinary people and ends get off work two hours later.
Yang Maixiang looks obviously in love now.
In the past, after getting off work, I would go to Lao Liu's house to wait for Liu Hongchang.
After establishing the relationship, Yang Maixiang obviously didn't want to wait at Old Liu's house.
He has also become a target, and it is only natural to go to the workplace to find someone.
Originally, Yang Maixiang rarely came to the Second Canteen.
"Why don't you just come in when you're here? Why are you shouting outside?"
From Liu Hongchang's point of view, these two cafeterias are his own territory, and there is no need to be so polite when Yang Maixiang comes.
"Don't you have to pay attention to the impact?"
"Then you don't need to be so careful. We were friends before and many people in the cafeteria know about it. Come in with me."
Everyone else was playing in the back kitchen, while Liu Hongchang and Yang Maixiang stayed in the front hall to talk.
"How was your work today? Are you busy?" Yang Maixiang asked with daily concern.
Yang Maixiang really had nothing to do when she came over, she just wanted to get together.
It’s a very normal behavior for a man and a woman to behave when they first fall in love.
"I'm doing a good job, I'm not busy. How are you today? Your job isn't very good. It's better to find an opportunity and be transferred to an office."
After asking the question, Liu Hongchang answered it himself.
It was actually difficult to be a bus conductor before the coin-operated era.
In this era, bus compartments are small, mainly because the number of buses is small, so it seems that there are many people on the bus.
It's crowded, there's no air conditioning, it's hot in the summer and cold in the winter.
There is no special seat for the conductor on the bus. The conductor needs to squeeze in and out with the passengers, get on the bus at the front door to sell tickets, and greet passengers to squeeze in to maintain order.
There are those who want to evade fares, there are pregnant women, the elderly, and those with children who need seats, there are those who are unqualified and grab seats, and there are those who have dirty hands and feet.
When the quality of residents is not high enough, maintaining order is the most difficult thing for conductors to do.
Therefore, some people will say that the conductor at this time has a hot temper and a bad attitude.
In fact, the attitude of most conductors is okay, but once you encounter a conductor who is angry, it is easy to create a fixed impression.
And because at this time, the quality of buses and road surfaces is not very good.
This kind of bus has to go back and forth between towns. The riding experience is not good, it is very bumpy.
Sitting in the car for a day, standing for a day, and shouting for a day are all common, and it is quite tiring.
The more Liu Hongchang thought about it, the more he felt that Yang Maixiang's job needed to be changed.
"Why is my job not so good? My job is pretty good and many people envy me."
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Yang Maixiang is quite satisfied with her job and does not think there is anything wrong with it.
"What's there to envy? Only people who don't have jobs will envy your job. Don't worry about your work. I'll figure it out."
Liu Hongchang said. In this era, some people do think that bus conductors work on expensive buses and are more glamorous.
But Liu Hongchang, who has seen through the essence, will never think that this job is good. The hard work is quite real.
"What can you do? If you can, why did you only find a temporary job for He Wenhui in the first place?"
Yang Maixiang also had no taboos about He Wenhui and didn't mind mentioning He Wenhui at all.
"..." It's all the fault of Liu Hongchang, the cook, who doesn't know how to use his own advantages:
"Of course I have my own ways, just wait for the transfer and don't be reluctant to give up your job as a conductor."
There are many leaders in the bus company, so it is impossible to find a breakthrough point.
If that doesn't work, you can also find a way to transfer to another unit.
"Then I'll wait for you to arrange work for me." Yang Maixiang's unassuming character is also quite comfortable.
"That's right, you can eat in our cafeteria today. After dinner, when I get off work, let's go to Xinghua Plaza and take a stroll."
Xinghua Plaza is almost the most prosperous and lively area in Ningzhou City.
Yesterday I accompanied Wang Cuilan, and today I will accompany Yang Maixiang for a formal date.
After all, this is the first time since establishing a relationship.
"How about I go home to eat and come back after I finish eating." Yang Maixiang obviously had some concerns.
"It doesn't matter, just eat here. We won't take advantage of the canteen. Whatever you eat, I will calculate the cost for Yao Guofa."
Liu Hongchang explained, thinking that Yang Maixiang might be worried about taking advantage of the canteen and what bad influence it would have on Liu Hongchang.
Yang Maixiang no longer had any scruples and stayed in the cafeteria.
When the second cafeteria opened in the evening, Yang Maixiang was in the back kitchen, reading the short stories that Liu Hongchang would read in the afternoon, and waiting for Liu Hongchang to get off work.
After most of the customers had left, Liu Hongchang cooked two meat and two vegetarian dishes and took Yang Maixiang to the front hall to eat.
It looks like a lot to eat, but in terms of cost, it’s actually not much.
A sweet and sour pork ribs, a fish-flavored shredded pork, a homemade tofu, a garlic green vegetables, the total cost of all the items, Liu Hongchang paid 80 cents.
The cost of half a kilogram of meat is slightly higher, because in this era, ribs are not very popular, so the canteen is just scraps, and even other ingredients including ribs are not worth much.
Based on Liu Hongchang's salary of forty or fifty a month, it can be fully consumed.
"Liu Hongchang, is this how you work?"
Yang Maixiang was surprised that Liu Hongchang didn't even cook ten dishes during the peak dinner period. It was a bit too easy.
In fact, a cafeteria of this size only has about ten tables.
People today are not like later generations, where three or four people only order seven or eight dishes.
The dishes ordered by customers are relatively small to begin with, and they are shared among the three cooks in the back kitchen.
Liu Hongchang gave another part to the Sixth Son, so there really wouldn't be much work.
"Otherwise, you still think that I, like you, have to be busy at work?" Liu Hongchang said.
At this time, the unit has sufficient staffing. Like Yang Maixiang, she has to work non-stop at work, which is still very small.
"Hong Chang, is that girl from the He family outside looking for you?"
Yang Maixiang did not answer Liu Hongchang's words, pointed to the outside of the cafeteria and asked Liu Hongchang.
"He Wenyuan! Maybe he really came to find me. Their family is really in trouble."
Yang Maixiang actually has little contact with the He family. It would be good to know that He Wenyuan is from the He family.
When Liu Hongchang saw He Wenyuan, He Wenyuan also saw Liu Hongchang, pushed open the door of the second cafeteria, and walked straight towards Liu Hongchang:
"Liu Hongchang, you eat well enough."
The girl looked strange when she came in. It was obvious that she was coming with bad intentions and was looking for trouble.
Liu Hongchang glanced at He Wenyuan: "What's the matter with my better food? Now I earn and spend alone, so I don't have to spend money to support white-eyed wolves. I just take advantage of the money. I can afford good food, so of course I have to eat good."
"
Of course Liu Hongchang didn't care about a half-grown girl and didn't take her seriously.
Regardless of whether he came to write or to fight, He Wenyuan was different.
"My mother and sister can't even eat at home. You still have the nerve to eat so well. I'll let you eat..." As he spoke, He Wenyuan started to grab the plates on the table.
"Put it down, He Wenyuan, please put it down."
Liu Hongchang shouted to He Wenyuan seriously. Seeing that He Wenyuan continued to move, Liu Hongchang continued: "If you want to go in and accompany He Wentao, just drop the plate."
"snort."
He Wenyuan obviously didn't go out as aggressively as He Wentao. Hearing Liu Hongchang's threat, he snorted coldly and took his hand back.
"If your mother and your sister don't eat, what does it have to do with me? Why should I be ashamed to eat?"
Liu Hongchang understood He Wenyuan's purpose.
In fact, it still happened today, but Yu Qiuhua and He Wenhui chose to be soft.
During the day, mother and daughter were too soft, and He Wenyuan wanted to be hard on Liu Hongchang.
And this person is not really tough either.
I want to be tough, but I don't dare to break the law or commit a crime.
"It's all because you sent Wen Tao to the juvenile detention center that my mother and sister can't eat." He Wenyuan accused Liu Hongchang.
"You are wrong. It was not me who sent He Wentao to the juvenile detention center. It was He Wentao who committed the crime and sent himself to the juvenile detention center. If we really want to hold people accountable, it will be you parents.
You didn’t take good care of your children.”
Liu Hongchang said calmly, just watch He Wenyuan's performance.
"Why don't I blame you? If I didn't blame you, why would Wen Tao only burn your house and not other people's houses?"
He Wenyuan doesn’t know where he learned the theory of victim guilt.
"Pah!" A slap hit He Wenyuan's face.
"He Wenyuan, what nonsense are you talking about? Now let me ask you, why don't I hit others but only you?"
It was Yang Maixiang who moved her hand, quite suddenly.
Yang Maixiang is just outgoing and cheerful, but does not have a hot personality.
This slap stunned He Wenyuan. He covered his face and paused before reacting:
"Who are you, Liu Hongchang, who is she?"
He questioned Liu Hongchang, and the current facts once again proved that He Wenyuan was harsh on the outside and was harsh on the inside.
It was said that everyone in the house looked down upon He Wenyuan, but He Wenyuan only dared to treat Liu Hongchang alone.
"She is my friend (I am his partner)."
Liu Hongchang and Yang Maixiang said at the same time.
"She is my partner."
Although this is beyond the plan, Yang Maixiang has said it, and Liu Hongchang will of course provide support.
Otherwise, the girl would lose face when outsiders are around.
Although most of the customers in the canteen have left, there are still two or three tables of people who have not finished eating.
Hearing the movement here, they all stared at this side.
"Okay, Liu Hongchang, you just divorced my sister the day before yesterday, and you have a partner today."
"Don't look for Liu Hongchang. If you have something to say to me, you haven't replied to me yet. Tell yourself, why should I hit you instead of others?" Yang Maixiang stood up again.
Liu Hongchang's quarrel with a girl is really not good-looking. Yang Maixiang is indeed suitable after all. There is no need to worry about men bullying women.
