There is Room for Rebirth in the 1950’s

Early in the morning, when Zhang Guoqing's biological clock rang, he did not wake up his wife.After confirming the time, he closed his eyes and straightened out the things that need to be arranged today.

After a while, he felt a change and said with a smile: "I woke up a long time ago. Seeing you are tired, I want you to sleep again. Are you sure you want to go to the morning market?"

Zhou Jiao rubbed her eyes, lifted the quilt, got up, and said with a smile: "I was scared and thought I had overslept. Go! Grandma Jiang said that there were people pushing hairy crabs and saury at Baxian Bridge early in the morning. I want to see it. See if there are any special products that are not available in the Northeast. After this year, even if you come here later, it is not easy to buy them."

Seeing her tired and sleepy when she came back last night, Zhang Guoqing didn't tell her that he had inquired good news.He was afraid that she would be too excited to sleep after learning.It was just teasing her.

"You were not there yesterday afternoon. I have made an appointment with the sampan boat owner to let him buy it for us. After 5:30 he will wait for us not far from the pier."

Zhou Jiao squinted at him and smirked, "Okay. You're starting to tease me." After that, she reached out to tickle him, and then stopped smiling when he couldn't help laughing.

"Have you paid? Will he run away without complying with the agreement?"

Zhang Guoqing shook his head and whispered, "There is a helper in the Chinese restaurant who introduced me to my boatman. To avoid the helper, I told the boatman to let him privately buy hairy crabs and river fish for me, as much as he can. He was happy with his eyes. How can you run when it shines?

Anyway, the price is very cheap. Give him some money to save us from being unfamiliar.I don't even want to give him a deposit, saying that he will bring it here before paying.He is a smart man!Before I left, I kept winking a secret."

Zhou Jiao knew this guy was smart.She happily praised him vigorously, and when she saw him look sad, she said slowly, "Then accompany me to the old Huaihai after seeing the boatman?"

Zhang Guoqing immediately said with a bitter face: "Wife, daughter-in-law, baby, really want to go? Can't you go? Those things are useless..." Before he finished speaking, he saw her cover her mouth and laughed, making him jump off. When the bed picked her up, she tickled her.

The couple played around for a while, calmed down and began to discuss how to cover up.After discussing it and seeing that the time was almost five o'clock, Zhang Guoqing pulled her up to wash, and handed the child to his aunt, and the two hurried out.

When I arrived at the agreed place, I saw two sampans of different sizes leaning on the shore before the time was up.When the boatman saw Zhang Guoqing and his wife, they beckoned excitedly.

Zhang Guoqing took Zhou Jiao to the front and glanced at a woman and young man behind him. It was estimated that this was a family action.He smiled and said, "I'm tired. Are you all ready? Let us see the goods first."

Seeing the two of them came empty-handed, the boatman hesitated and said, "Do you want my eldest son to be sent to the hotel?"

"Don't! Don't you guys know it as soon as you send it over? There is a cart in front of you. You can just load it and unload it later." Zhang Guoqing hurriedly stopped him.

The boatman took the two people aboard, only to see a boat with sacks and bamboo baskets.Zhang Guoqing glanced at each other more.He didn't expect to meet someone capable.

The boatman opened several sacks to reveal the hairy crabs and prawns in the bamboo baskets.

Zhang Guoqing nodded when he saw that everyone was good.Then they followed their family to another small boat, and it turned out that it was also full of supplies.In addition to hairy crabs, there are many Jiangli specialties.

"It's all good. I think there are small pieces of paper on it, right? We didn't say it, so you just say the total, how much is the total?" Zhang Guoqing said with a smile.

The boatman asked his son to take out the weighing mound, "I have it. You weigh it first and then calculate the price. I don't want to hide it from you, I will earn you every price difference. Except for the things we beat, we add a point or two. ."

Zhang Guoqing knew it as soon as he heard it, and stopped him and said, "No need to weigh it. You just say the price, how much is it in total? We will check out early and will go early."

Zhou Jiao took the list handed over by the boatman's son, looked at the handwriting on it, and smiled at them.She secretly sighed, no wonder the family's brains can get through the hotel.It seems that there is no shortage of cultural people at any time.

She didn't know the price they gave. Seeing that the family's eyes were righteous and shrewd, and they couldn't talk about being a kid, she nodded to Zhang Guoqing.

Zhang Guoqing took the order and gave them 18 yuan directly according to the above total of 17 yuan.He knew that it was all soaked in river water, maybe the weight was wrong.But the above is all a dense and dense list of a few minutes. I really want to weigh it. I guess I won't be able to return until noon.

Regardless of his ignorance of local prices, he guessed that the family had to make enough for a busy day.But he didn't say it. Sometimes he made a little money for others to save himself trouble.

After paying the money, Zhang Guoqing let them go back after they helped to move off the ship.Watching the family get on the boat and return from ear to ear, it is estimated that the family feels making a lot of money.

Zhang Guoqing did not have time to consider the gains and losses, so he went around to see if there was nothing unusual.He quickly asked Zhou Jiao to put everything on the ground into the space, leaving a basket of hairy crabs to repack.

After packing, he frowned and cleaned the scene.Until there were no traces, he smiled and picked up the bamboo basket, pulling Zhou Jiao back.

When the couple returned to the restaurant, they sent it to the back cook of the Chinese restaurant and asked them to steam it.

Mrs. Cheng looked behind them curiously, "Did you not buy it? If you don't have it, it's gone. Those old friends who get on the bus will definitely prepare it for us."

Zhang Guoqing did not say that they did not go to Baxian Bridge today.

Zhou Jiao next to him shook her head and smiled, "I have already bought it. I'm afraid that it won't be fresh after a long time, so let them steam it in the restaurant and take it back. Didn't it say at the banquet last night that it is not allowed? Why do you want to come again? "

"Knowing that we are leaving this afternoon, they will definitely come and see them off. If we don't listen, we can't do anything about it. We will eat out at noon, so that they don't have to go to the door to pull and pull."

As soon as Mrs. Cheng finished speaking, everyone in the room laughed.

The dinner last night wasn't a juggling, and the final payment was about to fight.

Lin Lishan and Cheng Ruzhu were out there for several days.Last night, she privately told Zhang Guoqing and his wife that they were almost out of money.

In the end, Zhou Jiao forced her money, but when she refused, she realized that she had no money. In fact, she still had more than two hundred.The couple wondered how much money she brought this time?

You know that many things are very cheap nowadays, and I haven't seen her buy big ones.As a result, Zhou Jiao couldn't laugh or cry when Lin Lishan reported what she had bought.

Both her mother and Cheng Ruzhu bought fine products, especially her mother bought almost all of them for herself.

Does she dare to wear high-end silk?I have a phonograph and I bought a radio. She dare to put it at home?With the watch, Zhang Guoqing and her father are embarrassed to bring a pocket watch to show off?A family of four gold pens, is this a parent-child package?But she really didn't dare to use it.She didn't dare to buy all the things in her No. 1 department store except for the white rabbit toffee.

It is strange to see her and Cheng Ruzhu not going out, "Mom, where are you and sister-in-law going to go today?"

"I'm just looking for you. Later, you will accompany us to a place." Lin Lishan said with a wink at her.In the past few days, she and Cheng Ruzhu found the black market, but they agreed to buy a batch of fabrics today.The other party looked like an old capitalist, otherwise where did the inventory come from?

Seeing that the situation was not good, Zhou Jiao looked at Cheng Ruzhu.Seeing her nodding and smiling, he was relieved.With her sister-in-law there, no problems can arise.
