Chapter 77 Talent cannot be forced to come
Amidst the sound of firecrackers to see off guests, the Dongfeng car drove out of the Xiaohe production team and shuttled through the green mountains and forests. The rumbling engine made the dense leaves rustle. .
The air is filled with bursts of earthy fragrance and fresh pine forest smell, blowing against the four brothers in the carriage.
Tang Jianjun was reminiscing about the banquet at noon, and then thinking about the Lin family’s return gift to the Gu family. He held the carriage with both hands and bumped Gu Jiu with his shoulder:
“Brother Ninth, I’m with you today. After a trip to the countryside, the sense of superiority that city people had before was shattered. Although rural people work hard all year round, they have richer materials and a better life than us. ”
Look at the ten bowls at the banquet at noon today, and look at the sixty-six eggs and eighteen packets of brown sugar as gifts in return.
I am afraid that ordinary people in the city cannot afford such a banquet and return gift.
Xu Ming nodded: "I asked Gangzi about the top ten bowls for today's banquet. Except for the seasonings, which are brown sugar and eggs, the other ingredients are all grown at home or made in the mountains. Even Bacon also killed his own pigs during the Chinese New Year last year."
Li Yuanchao said with a smile. : "Now that we are greedy, can we come to the countryside to hunt with my sister-in-law? I heard that my sister-in-law brought back the pheasants and hares from the mountains."
The game they had at their dinner last time was also brought by Lin Shu. , he felt that as long as Lin Shu wanted to get meat when he went up the mountain, he would be confident that he could get it. In this way, he will have meat to eat if he follows her.
The wind messed up his hair, and Gu Jiu shook his head, thinking of the toilets in the countryside, "Illusion, believe me, if I let you stay in the countryside, you will have to run away in less than three days."
< br>If it is so good, why do the educated youths who go to the countryside always dream of escaping from the countryside?
In order to return to the city, some even used eighteen kinds of martial arts to show off their magical powers.
"Haha."
Several people imagined the scene of them running away, and they couldn't help but feel happy.
Xu Ming turned around and asked Tang Jianjun: "Jianjun, how are you getting along with that flower girl?"
"What flower, it's the flower girl." Tang Jianjun corrected him.
However, when talking about the relationship, the eldest boy is still a little sweet and a little frustrated, "We get along well, and we have common topics, but her parents are a bit dissatisfied with my work, saying that it is a place for women and aunts to stay." I am a grown man occupying a pension job and have no future.”
The three of them chuckled after hearing this.
Xu Ming told the truth: "Her parents are right. The job in your street office seems to be very suitable for auntie."
"Brother, what you said is very heartbreaking!" Tang Jianjun said anxiously: "Do you want to know how many people are competing for a job spot in the city now? I can work in the street office, at least better than the educated youth, why does her mother dislike me? "
Xu Ming agreed: "Yes, yes, compared to the educated youth who have no choice but to go to the countryside, your family has a pretty good relationship. You are better than them, I think. It’s just that the girl’s parents are too demanding, so it’s okay for her parents to be so snobbish.” I always hope that my children will live a better life, and they will naturally suffer less if they marry a man with good conditions."
Yes, Xu Ming wanted to slap himself in the mouth.
Gu Jiu also looked at Tang Jianjun in surprise: "Jianjun, I didn't expect you to have the potential for a love brain."
"Brother Ninth, what is a love brain?" Li Yuanchao finally interjected. He mainly asked if he didn't understand.
“Love is supreme, and everything can be compromised for the sake of love.”
“Nonsense, I also have my own principles. I just think differently when facing the flower parents.”< br>
No one said much after hearing Tang Jianjun’s sophistry.
Xiaohe Production Team.
After sending the guests away, the Lin family began to clean up the messy leftovers. They had to clean up the dishes and wash them, and they had to return the dishes and chopsticks that had been borrowed from two tables. Tables need to be wiped and cleaned, and tables, chairs and benches borrowed from neighbors need to be returned. The floor needs to be swept, and in the evening we have to entertain the aunts who came to help today.
Fortunately, the Lin family has a large population, everyone works together, and the division of labor is clear. Everyone is used to doing farm work, so it doesn’t take much effort to do it.
As soon as I sat down to take a rest, I heard Lin Haiyan's voice coming from outside.
“Lin Shu, are you done?”
Lin Haiyan walked in with half a basket of pears in her hand. Seeing that the house had been cleaned up, she walked over to Lin Shu and sat down.
Lin Shuxiao asked: "Where did you get the pears?"
"My mother didn't let me come over in the morning to cause trouble, so I went to Dongkou Village and my aunt's house to pick them. A basket of pears came back." Lin Haiyan placed half of the basket of pears in front of Lin Shu. "This is food brought to you. Your partner has left."
"Well, they went back first."
"Are you okay now? Why not take advantage of this time? Teach me how to use a sewing machine again?”
Lin Shu wanted to touch his forehead when he heard this. This girl was not good at using a sewing machine, but now that she had spoken, Lin Shu had to agree: "Okay."
The two took advantage of the opportunity The family members didn't pay attention and returned to Lin Shu's small bedroom.
The small bedroom is not spacious, and the bedside by the window can just accommodate a sewing machine.
Lin Haiyan sat in front of the sewing machine, while Lin Shu had to sit on the edge of the bed.
Lin Haiyan's nervous hands were sweating, and she asked unconfidently: "I should be able to learn to walk in a straight line today, right?"
Lin Shu tried hard not to laugh out loud, "The main thing when using a sewing machine is to coordinate your hands and feet. Don't push the fabric with your hands on the table. The feet underneath won't move. If you step on it and it won't move, the needle will get stuck." Line. ”
< br>"What should I do, Lin Shu? I put my attention on the table and push the cloth, but my feet won't move. If I focus on moving my feet, my hands won't move. Am I so stupid?" Lin Haiyan My nervous forehead was sweating, and I was about to cry.
The eldest sister-in-law and second sister-in-law of the Lin family learned it easily, so why couldn’t she do it when it was her turn?
"Don't be nervous. The more nervous you are, the less likely you are to step on it."
Lin Shu's comfort was useless. After practicing countless times, the result was still the same.
Lin Haiyan finally collapsed and looked at the dozens of dresses that were ready on the bedside: "How long ago, you already know how to cut cloth and make clothes, but I can't even operate a sewing machine skillfully. How can I be like this?" Stupid? My rice planting speed and quality are very good, why can't I control this iron knot?"
Lin Shu put a dozen sets of ready-made dresses into a box under the bed, or leave them outside. It irritated her.
"Everyone is good at what they are good at. Don't be discouraged. You are also excellent in other aspects."
"I am not even one-tenth as good as you."
Lin Shu smiled helplessly. The reason why she was so proficient was not something she learned in this generation. She had stepped on a sewing machine and worked on a cutting bed in a garment factory in her previous life. In order to support her son in her previous life, she endured all kinds of hardships when she was young. She worked in restaurants, hotels, supper bars, and factories.
If she hadn't been too young and exhausted, how could she have died before she was seventy years old?
Actually, she lived quite well in her later years. But this cannot make up for the shortcomings of his young body. After all, he is still sick from overwork.
