Rebirth in 1998 is also a kind of life

Jining, in a small village near Lanling.

The little girl who was a little nervous tidied up the clothes she had just put on, and checked the few popular brand clothes she had just bought in the suitcase, and then looked at her man pitifully: "Yang Zhu, you must not Forget to pick me up!"

Lu Feifei in the back seat couldn't take it any longer, and rolled her eyes: "Sister-in-law, what are you doing!? I won't come to pick you up in three days. The groom will hold a wedding with the air!"

The little girl stuck out her tongue in embarrassment, she is getting more and more clingy to Yang Zhu now, plus she is very nervous before major life events, seeing that she will not see Yang Zhu for several days, her heart is empty, and she is inevitably a little cranky .

Yang Zhu touched the little girl's head: "It's okay, we can meet again the day after tomorrow, besides, isn't Feifei here with you?"

The little girl nodded, took a deep breath, opened the car door, and walked down.

Yang Zhu looked back at the inconspicuous clothes on Xiaodou Sprout, nodded, and got out of the car.

…………

Ok……

Just like Yang Zhu has been hiding from his parents, the little girl did not tell the family about Yang Zhu's identity.

Firstly, he was afraid that his parents would slip up when they met Yang Zhu's parents, which would cause unnecessary trouble;

Secondly, she is very aware of her father's virtues. Once she knows that Yang Zhu is a big boss, all kinds of unreasonable demands will definitely drive people crazy.

Therefore, her parents only know that their daughter is an ordinary employee of the Hope Group. Although the money sent to the family in the past two years has reached 2000 yuan a month, from her parents, they only think that it is because of the good benefits of the Hope Group. In addition to the entire salary of his daughter, this money also has Yang Zhu's filial piety in it.

What needs to be said is that after a serious, earnest, and lively internal family meeting and discussion, the little girl and Yang Zhu finally decided to keep the wedding simple.

In addition to being afraid that the exposure of their real identities will scare their parents, the two of them don't like to be too high-profile;

What's more, the hatred of the rich is becoming more and more obvious in the society. If the wedding is too high-profile, Yang Zhu and the little girl are fine, and their personal safety is guaranteed, but it may not be a good thing for the parents of both parties—the third in the country. The second crackdown was in 2001, and there are still several months away from now. One can imagine what the current social security situation is like.

For this reason, Yang Zhu also persuaded Lu Feifei with the high price of ten boxes of chocolates to let her stay at home with the little girl for three days in the name of a bridesmaid, just in case—after all, this girl has learned Self-defense, although he is not big, but his strength is not small, enough to prevent some ordinary situations.

………………

"Dad, Mom!"

The little girl pushed open the gate of the yard and yelled loudly, and her parents, who had been squatting at home for a long time, ran out.

Yang Zhu politely greeted his father-in-law, who was still thin, and then handed the two bags of supplements to his mother-in-law, who had a face similar to the little girl's, and called mom respectfully.

Father-in-law always knew that his son-in-law didn't like him very much, so he didn't care about his slightly indifferent attitude.

As for the mother-in-law, she took a cautious look at her man, and saw that he was not unhappy with a smile on his face, then took the tonic handed over by Yang Zhu, and invited her son-in-law and Lu Feifei to come in and sit down with a look of embarrassment.

Looking at his mother-in-law, who was always humble and cautious, Yang Zhu sighed silently.

Ever since he accompanied his woman back home to visit relatives for the first time, he knew from whom exactly the little girl's appearance and character were inherited.

It is conceivable that if the little girl did not follow her, but obediently listened to her father-in-law's arrangement to marry someone else, she would probably be like this now.

But to a certain extent, Yang Zhu can also understand why his mother-in-law became like this - apart from the long-standing machismo in the Qilu area, his own condition is also one of the sins.

You know, the little girl is a stunner at the level of disastrous to the country and the people. Although her mother's appearance and figure are not that exaggerated, she was definitely a top-notch figure in the village or even the county when she was young.

And you have to know that although we always say that the rural people are simple and honest, if you really live in the countryside for a while, you will find that most of the rural areas in Qilu are not as good as you imagined—except for the "village" In addition to the issue of bullying, which made Qilu people show their faces in front of the whole country once, it is not uncommon for small gangsters who usually sneak around in the village.

And the mother-in-law, whose appearance and figure killed all the women in the village, appeared in the countryside. Without thinking about it, she knew that all kinds of harassment in daily life were indispensable. Over the years, she caused a lot of trouble, but she was deeply influenced by traditional thinking. It's not surprising that his own man looks humble.

………………

Following his father-in-law and mother-in-law, and stepping into the renovated inner hall, Yang Zhu was shocked to find that there was a young man in his twenties, extremely handsome but with an indifferent face, sitting on the canvas sofa in the room.

"Brother Peng!" The little girl was surprised when she saw the young man, and ran over to give him a big hug.

And the young man pushed the little girl away with some embarrassment: "Sister, how old are you, can you stop doing this!"

Having said that, most of the indifference on the young man's face disappeared in an instant.

Lu Feifei, who was dragging two large suitcases, looked curiously at this beautiful and even a little girly young man in front of her, and turned to look at Yang Zhu: "Brother, who is this?"

Yang Zhu shrugged: "It should be your sister-in-law's younger brother who can't escape, um, if I remember correctly, it should be called... Sima Peng?"

Lu Feifei thought about it carefully, and it seems that her sister-in-law has such a younger brother, and it is said that part of the [-] dowry gift Yang Zhu gave was to help him who graduated from technical secondary school.

Thinking of being a younger brother, but relying on cheating her own sister to find a job, Lu Feifei looked at Sima Peng with a bit of contempt.

Fortunately, it was my brother who I met back then, otherwise, my sister-in-law would have been ruined in this life with a high probability!

After chatting intimately with the little girl for a while, while his father-in-law and mother-in-law were preparing meals, Sima Peng suddenly stood up and said to Yang Zhu, "Yang, come out, I have something to tell you."

Yang Zhu looked at the brother-in-law whose face had returned to indifference, and heard him address him in an extremely unfamiliar and even hostile manner, shrugging his shoulders in disbelief, and then said to the worried little girl, "Don't worry!" " look, and then followed Sima Peng out of the inner hall.

"Little brother-in-law, what's the matter?" Yang Zhu followed Sima Peng to the corner of the yard, glanced at the persimmon tree that had begun to dye, and asked.

"Pa~" Sima Peng took out an envelope from his clothes, and slapped Yang Zhu hard on the chest.

"Huh? What is this for?" Yang Zhu rubbed his chest, looking at the thick envelope in his hand with some surprise, and he could tell by the feel of it that there was a thick stack of money inside.

"My surname is Yang, here is twelve thousand. From today onwards, I, Sima Peng, will not owe you a penny!" The young man looked at him stubbornly.

Yang Zhu was at a loss: "What are you talking about?"

Sima Peng blushed, and his eyes were full of anger: "My father planned to sell my sister for a bride price back then. I just graduated and was still in school. I didn't know about it at all;"

"By the time I found out, I had already been working in the parts factory for three months!"

"so……"

"At the beginning, my dad spent [-] yuan to walk me through the door;"

"Here! Here are all the money, not less than a penny;"

"From today onwards, I, Sima Peng, will not owe you any more!"

Yang Zhu was stunned, but he was also a little funny, so that's what happened.

The young man is indeed a young man, so angry; we are all a family, do we need to worry about this matter?

But when he turned around, he realized something was wrong. Although he didn't usually touch cash much, the weight and thickness of the money in the envelope was obviously wrong.

When I opened the envelope, I saw that there were colorful and colorful bills inside, including one hundred, fifty, ten yuan, and even a lot of fifty-cent bills and a handful of pennies.

Seeing Yang Zhu looking at him in surprise, Sima Peng blushed even more, and his tone was a little unnatural: "This is the salary I have saved in the past two and a half years, and I can't exchange so many full bills all at once, so... Anyway, there is It's [-], not bad, if you don't believe me, you can count it!"

Yang Zhu didn't count, but took a closer look at this young man who looked a bit girly at first glance. He saw that although his clothes were clean, they were obviously old. There are obvious burrs on the collar;

And the jeans that are obviously washed white and have some holes on them, at first sight Yang Zhu thought it was a fashion that young people began to pursue, but now it seems that it is very likely that it is because they have been worn for too long.

What caught Yang Zhu's attention the most was the shoes on the brother-in-law's feet. Those leather shoes had obviously sunken heads. However, Yang Zhu could tell at a glance that this pair of well-maintained leather shoes, which had been brushed with shoe polish not long ago, was clearly caused by the leather shrinkage caused by not wearing them for a long time.

It is not difficult to guess that this pair of leather shoes must have been bought by his father-in-law when he first entered the factory, and this brother-in-law must not be willing to wear them on weekdays, until his sister was about to leave the cabinet, so he took them out.

After being silent for a while, Yang Zhu suddenly asked, "How much do you pay per month in the factory now?"

Sima Peng looked at him coldly: "What does this have to do with you?"

Yang Zhu shrugged: "How do you know if the money is yours if you don't ask clearly? If you got it through illegal means, wouldn't I be an accomplice if I accept it?"

Sima Peng jumped up in an instant, pointing at Yang Zhu's nose and cursing: "My surname is Yang, don't you fucking fart there! I, Sima Peng, have always been innocent since I was a child. When did I ever do something like stealing chickens and dogs!?"

Yang Zhu grinned: "Since you can't tell others about everything, what's the matter with telling me your salary?"

Sima Peng panted, looked at the curtain in the inner hall with some guilt, and said angrily: "520 a month, and there is a bonus at the end of the year."

Listening to his subconsciously lowered voice, Yang Zhu suddenly understood why he was reluctant to speak at first.

If I remember correctly, this brother-in-law was a worker in an equipment parts factory in Lanling. Although this factory does not have a provincial prefix, it is still a state-owned enterprise.

Rather than being unexpected, the 520 a month this kid just said must be the current salary level-the wages of national workers have been raised twice in the past two years; that is to say, when this guy first entered the factory, at most That is 360-400 yuan a month, which is much lower than the salary of the soda factory.

Tsk tsk, even if state-owned enterprises have year-end bonuses, generally speaking, if the market is at its peak now, they will give you 3 months' salary, which is the so-called 15 salary in later generations;

With this salary level, save [-] in just two and a half years?

Yang Zhu can fully imagine how much this brother-in-law would have to save in order to save so much money if there is no other way to get money.

Looking at Sima Peng's slightly disheveled face, and the fact that he hadn't seen this guy in several major festivals, Yang Zhu sighed... Could it be that this family has the habit of picking money?But in order to save the fare, you don’t even go home for the New Year’s Eve. Isn’t this too hard?

However, Ken ate steamed buns for two and a half years in a row, just to repay the money he thought he should pay. Regardless of whether this behavior was naive or not, Yang Zhu had a much better impression of this brother-in-law whom he met for the first time.

"Success, I'll accept the money. But... You asked me to come out, so there should be something you want to say to me?" Yang Zhu played with the envelope in his hand, but didn't intend to put it in his pocket.

Looking at Yang Zhu with a calm face, Sima Peng was at a loss for words. He couldn't say what he wanted to say, and finally grabbed Yang Zhu by the collar, pulled him to the front, and said viciously: " Treat my sister well in the future!"

Yang Zhu lightly patted his hands with engine oil stains visible between the nails, and then rubbed his aching chest: "Hey, hey, do you need to talk about this? Which eye do you see me? Bad for your sister!"

Sima Peng thought for a while, and lowered his head a little discouraged. Putting the changes in the family in the past two years, even a fool can see that his brother-in-law loves his sister very much;

Even if Yang Zhu is a little rusty and indifferent towards his father, if he left the things his father did, he would never give his father a good face, so if we really want to talk about this matter, we cannot blame Yang Zhu What to cast - after all, Yang Zhu is good to his mother.

but……

His two siblings have come all the way through hard times since they were young, and the little girl took good care of him, and on weekdays, she would rather be hungry than leave him delicious food;

When he became sensible, he secretly swore that he would take good care of his sister and let her live a good life.

However, perhaps due to his limited talent and family conditions, he can only go to technical secondary school after graduating from junior high school. The best way out in the future is to become a glorious state-owned enterprise worker.

It's just that when he entered the Lanling Machinery Manufacturing Factory, intending to work hard and save money to buy some new clothes and a lot of snacks for his sister, he suddenly discovered... The reason why he was able to come in was entirely because of The reason why my sister sacrificed herself in exchange for a large gift.

Knowing the reason of the matter, how can Sima Peng accept it?

So he worked desperately and saved money. Even when he was still growing up, he ate only 3 steamed buns a day with plain water, in order to save money quickly and "redeem" his sister back. ".

In his imagination, his sister who was "sold" must be living an inhuman life. Even if the little girl calls him several times a month and tells him that she is doing well, he just thinks it is. It's just for my sister to comfort me.

And the little girl tried to send him money over and over again, but he refused... In his imagination, the money must have been secretly saved by his sister who was hungry and scolded by others, even if he had no conscience , I have no face to accept this kind of relief.

But the ideal is very full, the reality is very skinny, hungry for two and a half years, but only saved more than 1 yuan; and at this time a bad news came... My sister is getting married!

While feeling extremely guilty that he was sorry for his sister, all he can do now is to take out all his savings, pay off the debts he owed back then, and viciously warn that guy surnamed Yang that he must absolutely, absolutely not It's just bullying his sister - he swears, if anyone surnamed Yang dares to make his sister feel wronged, he will definitely try his best to make this bastard look good!

However, looking at it today, it seems that my sister is doing really well? ——After all, the siblings have been together day and night for more than ten years, and he can tell at a glance whether the smile on the elder sister's face is real.

In this way, my two and a half years of suffering... turned out to be in vain?

Feeling that the clown was actually himself, Sima Peng fell into deep suspicion.

………………

Seeing Sima Peng with aggrieved face and powerless face, Yang Zhu became more interested in this brother-in-law, and immediately handed him a cigarette. After taking a sip, he forced himself to put his arm around this guy's shoulder and took two steps forward: "Speaking of...whether you like it or not, I will be your legitimate brother-in-law in three days."

Hearing Yang Zhu's words, Sima Peng was about to explode.

Yang Zhu quickly patted him on the shoulder, signaling him to calm down: "As a brother-in-law, I don't have any preparations when I meet you for the first time, so...these money rights should be my change fee for you, don't think it's too little!"

Seeing Yang Zhu stuffing the envelope into his pocket lightly, Sima Peng was stunned!

This is twelve thousand!

I saved a huge sum of money after two and a half years of frugality!

In the past few years, this amount of money was enough to cause a murder!

The person surnamed Yang in front of him was thrown to him so indifferently?

Opening fee?

I'm not a new daughter-in-law, which company has so much money for changing her mouth!

After several excuses and arguments, Sima Peng finally accepted the money that originally belonged to him.

but……

Why did Mao himself look at this smiling brother-in-law, but always had the urge to punch him in the face?
