Chapter 166 Years
According to what Lin Huaiyu said, the village chief gave the four-to-five-pound eel to Manager Li of Mulan Hotel alone, and told Manager Li that this eel had lived for a long time, at least ten years, otherwise it would not grow long. so fat.He also said that the long-lived rice field eel can nourish the kidney and strengthen the yang, which is a treasure for men.
Sure enough, as Lin Huaiyu expected, Manager Li liked this gift very much.Seeing that he liked it, the village chief said that if he caught such a thick eel in the future and gave it to him, Manager Li would be very grateful.
The village head also told Manager Li that the eel was given by Lin Huaiyu.Manager Li was very surprised when he heard this. He didn't expect it to be Lin Huaiyu's idea.
The reason why it was Lin Huaiyu's idea to tell Manager Li was that the village head wanted Manager Li to remember Lin Huaiyu's goodness, and to introduce more business to Lin Huaiyu at that time.
The village head is very self-aware. It is entirely thanks to Lin Huaiyu that he can cooperate with Mulan Hotel this time, so he wants Manager Li to know that Lin Huaiyu is good.
Although Manager Li didn't say anything more, he wrote down what happened this time.
Lin Huaiyu did not follow the village chief and the others to sell fish at the Mulan Restaurant, but quietly went to the black market in Lanxi County to sell things at a street stall.
He bought goods worth 30 yuan from the stall owner in Mulan City.Of course, he didn't tell the truth to his family, otherwise the family would suspect where he got so much money.
There are a lot of goods for 30 yuan, enough for Lin Huaiyu and the others to put them on for a while.
The standard of living in Lanxi County is naturally not as good as that of Mulan City. In terms of wages, the workers in Lanxi County are not as good as Mulan City.
These days, Lin Huaiyu and the others set up a street stall and can sell it for four or five yuan a day.If it was sold for five yuan, Lin Huaiyu and the others would earn more than three yuan after deducting the capital cost of more than one yuan.
Earning just over three yuan a day seems like a small amount, especially compared to later generations, but in this day and age, more than three yuan is a lot of money.Among other things, more than three yuan can buy about thirty catties of rice.
Although Lin Huaiyu felt that earning two or three yuan a day was a bit small, but at this moment, it was a great thing to be able to earn two or three yuan a day.He has more than 300 yuan in his hand, so he can do some big business, but the reality does not allow him to do big business.Now he can only set up a street stall in the black market, selling some small things to make money.
Lin Huaiyu thought that by [-], he would go to Shenzhen to buy goods, and then set up a street stall to sell clothes and shoes.However, it is still very early in [-].
When Lin Huaimin and Lin Huaiyu first came to set up a street stall, she was too embarrassed to speak, but now she is very skillful and enthusiastically yelling at customers to buy their trousers and socks.
When there are no guests, Lin Huaiyu and Lin Huaimin read books with their hands in their hands.
Their brothers and sisters are good-looking, polite and sweet.People who set up street stalls in the black market like them very much and often give them some food.
Lin Huaiyu and the others went out before dawn and arrived home after dark.Fortunately, the weather is warm now, otherwise it would be very cold to sit and set up a street stall in the black market.
During this time, Lin Huaiyu and Lin Huaimin did not dig Polygonum multiflorum.However, Li Zhen and Lin Jianghu went to dig Polygonum multiflorum every night.In the past few days, the couple dug up one hundred catties of Polygonum multiflorum, and Lin Huaiyu planned to take it to the Ceylon Traditional Chinese Medicine Center in Mulan City to sell it tomorrow.
Lin Huaimin is not interested in going to Mulan City now, and did not make a fuss about going to Mulan City with her brother, but wants to stay and continue to set up a street stall in Lanxi County.
Lin Huaiyu couldn't carry the 100-jin Polygonum multiflorum by himself. Li Zhen decided to go to Mulan City with him, while Lin Jianghu stayed in the village and continued to catch fish with the villagers.
Before dawn, Lin Jianghu sent Lin Huaiyu and the others to the entrance of the village.
When they arrived at the county seat, Lin Huaimin went to set up a street stall in the black market, while Lin Huaiyu and Li Zhen took a car to Mulan City.
The doctor in charge of the Ceylon Traditional Chinese Medicine Center was very happy to see that Lin Huaiyu had brought more than 100 catties of Polygonum multiflorum.
After selling Polygonum multiflorum, Lin Huaiyu and Li Zhen went to have breakfast.
After breakfast, the mother and son walked around Mulan City.Although Mulan City is not as good as God's City, it is more prosperous and lively than Lanxi County.
After visiting the supply and marketing cooperative, Lin Huaiyu took Li Zhen to the black market, and by the way, ordered the next batch of goods with the boss.
"Our family has relatives in Hong Kong City, but unfortunately we can't go now." When Li Zhen learned that the boss's goods came from Guangdong, she thought of Hong Kong City.
"Mom, which of our relatives is in Hong Kong City?"
"My cousin, that is, your cousin is in Hong Kong City." Li Zhen said, "My cousin and your grandmother are cousins and have a very good relationship. Before the accident, your aunt and I often went to Hong Kong City to visit Cousin."
"Mom, then why didn't you go to Hong Kong City before?"
"Your cousin often asks us to move to Hong Kong City, but your grandpa doesn't want to go." Having said this, Li Zhen's eyes were full of sadness, "If we had gone to Hong Kong City, your grandpa and your grandma would have been fine. "At the beginning, Li Zhen was willing to move to Hong Kong City.Her cousin has several houses in Hong Kong City, and the family moved to Hong Kong City without worrying about the house.
"The world is unpredictable." The tragedies caused by this era have really ruined many families.
"Yes, the world is unpredictable." Just because their family is a bourgeoisie and many relatives in the family are abroad, their family was wrongly accused of being lackeys of imperialism, and their family was torn apart. "When the times are better, I will take you to find your cousin. When she sees you, she will definitely like you very much."
"Okay, I'll go with you then."
"By the way, your cousin and her family are in Paris." Li Zhen said, "If you participate in the Dibo International Violin Competition in the future, you can meet them. I haven't seen them for so many years, and I haven't contacted them. I don't know them. How about now?"
"Mom, don't worry, my cousin and the others are sure to be fine."
"I originally planned to study violin in Paris." Speaking of studying abroad, Li Zhen sighed slightly, "Your cousin found a school for me—the Paris Conservatoire, which is very close to your cousin's house. It's a pity that something happened before I went."
"If nothing happened, mom, you might have become a violinist by now."
"At my level, I can barely become a violinist, but I can't become the principal violinist of a famous orchestra." Li Zhen held his son's hand tightly and said, "With your level, you will definitely be able to become a violinist at home and abroad." A famous violinist can also become the principal violin of a world-renowned orchestra.”
"Mom, don't worry, I will work hard." Lin Huaiyu saw that Li Zhen's face was a little heavy, and deliberately said some light topics to divert her attention, "Mom, what are you doing in Paris?"
"Your cousin learned piano. She went to study in Paris when she was a teenager, and then married a Frenchman, but she got divorced a few years later. Later, your cousin went to Germany and got married in Germany. Afterwards, the couple moved back to France from Germany, and then settled in Paris." Li Zhenwen said, "Your cousin is a pianist and runs a music salon in Paris."
"Where's cousin?"
"Your cousin is a tuner and is very famous in the industry." Li Zhen couldn't help laughing when he thought of his childhood, "I learned the violin when I was young, and your cousin was very critical and asked me why I didn't learn the piano. "
Lin Huaiyu asked curiously: "Mom, why didn't you learn the piano?"
"I learned the piano when I was young, but I like the violin more than the piano." Li Zhen first learned the piano as a musical instrument, and then he was attracted by the violin, so he specialized in learning the violin.
"Apart from you, does anyone else in our family learn violin?"
Li Zhen shook his head lightly: "No, your cousin, me, and you are the only music learners in our family."
"Is it just the three of us?" Lin Huaiyu was shocked, "I thought our Li family was an art house, and there were many people studying music. I didn't expect it was just the three of us."
"It would be great if our Li family was an art house, so we won't have any accidents, alas..." Li Zhen's tone became heavy again, "Many relatives of your grandmother's family are abroad, in the United States, the United Kingdom, Germany, Australia and many other places. If your grandma hadn’t married your grandpa, she would have moved abroad with her family.”
"What about Grandpa's house?"
"The Li family was in the textile business at the beginning, but during the Republic of China, most of the Li family members went abroad. The relatives who are closer to your grandfather are in Singapore and Canada."
"Why didn't grandpa go abroad?"
"Your grandfather didn't run a business like his family, but he studied abroad to study medicine when he was young. Because of this, your grandfather was convicted and passed away." Thinking of what happened in the past, Li Zhen couldn't get angry anymore , Full of anger has long been replaced by helplessness and sadness. "Your uncle was also convicted for studying medicine abroad, and I don't know how your uncle is doing now."
"Mom, my uncle is a doctor. He will definitely take care of himself. Don't worry too much." Lin Huaiyu comforted, "Maybe we can meet again in a few years."
"Can we meet again?" Before the brothers and sisters separated, they felt that they might never see each other again in this lifetime.
"Of course we can meet again." Lin Huaiyu said with certainty, "Mom, the era of light will come soon, when the sins of you and uncle will be cleared, and you and uncle will definitely meet again at that time."
"Is what you said true?" Li Zhen was agitated by his son's words, "Can I see your uncle again?"
"Yes, I will see you!" Lin Huaiyu smiled at Li Zhen, "Mom, you believe me, at most six or seven years, you will be able to reunite with your uncle." Six or seven years later, not only the college entrance examination resumed, but also reformed Open up, and then everything will be fine.
"Okay, okay, I believe what you say." Li Zhen's parents passed away, and her only relative is her elder brother.Even though she was prepared to never see her again in this life before she left, if she still had the chance to see her again, of course she would like to see her again.
"Mom, you are my uncle's only relative in this world. I think my uncle also wants to reunite with you, so he will definitely take care of himself and wait to meet you again."
"You're right, your uncle will definitely take care of himself!" No matter what, she will find her brother in this life and reunite with him.
"Mom, if you don't tell me today, I don't know that our family was so powerful before." With this family background, it's no wonder they will be convicted and sent down.
"You think it's great?" Li Zhen smiled self-deprecatingly, "Everyone thinks that I have a bad background, and even said that I have hurt your father."
"Mom, I think whether it's a bourgeois lady or a farmer, they are all Chinese, and there is no distinction between high and low."
"You..." Li Zhen was shocked by his son's words, widened his eyes, looked at Lin Huaiyu in disbelief, then frowned and warned, "Don't say these words again, or you will get into trouble."
"Mom, I'll just tell you, I won't tell anyone else." Lin Huaiyu's tone suddenly became serious, "However, Mom, what I just said will come true in the future."
"It would be great if it could be realized." Thinking of her family, Li Zhen felt sore, she didn't want her son to worry, "Okay, let's not talk about it, where are we going next?"
"Mom, where else do you want to go and see, do you want to buy something?"
"There's nothing to buy, let's go back."
"Okay, let's go back then."
Lin Huaiyu and the others were about to go to the station, but they didn't expect to meet Manager Li of Mulan Hotel.He introduced Li Zhen to Manager Li, and then introduced Manager Li to Li Zhen.
Manager Li was amazed when he saw Li Zhen.Although Li Zhen's edges and corners have been erased in the past ten years, her life is not as delicate as when she was young, and her appearance is also older, but it makes her more attractive.Even wearing coarse old clothes can't hide her beauty.However, thinking of Lin Huaiyu, it's normal to think his mother is so beautiful and has such a temperament.
I expressed my gratitude to Lin Huaiyu, thank you for the eel before.Manager Li invited Lin Huaiyu and the others to sit at the Mulan Hotel for a while, and he had something to tell Lin Huaiyu.
