Reborn 1980: Scientific research leader farms to serve the motherland

Chapter 186 Counting money plus update 1

It was the encouragement from the money box that gave Lin Cuihua endless strength.

She quickly stir-fried two more dishes, one with shredded potatoes and one with bean sprouts and leeks.

The bean sprouts were sold today when they were selling couplets. There was a bean sprout seller next to their stall, so I bought some by the way.

"Third brother, go next door and ask for a servant. I'll be ready soon."

Lin Cuihua lowered her head, flipped the shovel under her hand, and a pancake was immediately out of the pan.

She was afraid that she wouldn't have enough to eat, so she baked a lot of cakes.

Don’t worry about whether you eat well or not. At least you have to eat enough. This is the most basic thing.

An Guoping ran out happily and went to Jiang Xia's house. He invited an old man and a young man to come over together.

An Sancheng went out to greet him, and several people entered the house talking and laughing.

Lin Cuihua was setting the meal, and An Ning was helping to get a stool.

"Come in quickly, let's start dinner right away."

While Lin Cuihua was busy, Zhou Guifen was sent to the bench and was not allowed to do anything.

An Ning wanted to help, but she couldn't keep up with Lin Cuihua's rhythm and was often disliked.

It's still the kind of disgusting thing that can't be done.

An Sancheng talked to Grandpa Jiang Xia and invited the old man to come in and sit down.

Jiang Xia followed behind and very discerningly stepped forward to help Lin Cuihua serve the dishes.

"It smells so good. My aunt is a good cook."

"Auntie, thank you for your hard work in cooking so many dishes."

These two sentences made Lin Cuihua smile happily.

"This kid...sit down quickly and eat."

On the other side, An Ning, who was disliked for helping to get in the way, glanced at Jiang Xia twice.

The young man has many faces!

Jiang Xia looked at An Ning accurately, with no concealment of the pride in her eyes. The moment she turned around, she immediately became the favorite child in the parents' eyes.

"Auntie, sit down quickly. Where are the chopsticks? I'll do it."

Jiang Xia's behavior not only received the death stare from An Ning, but also from An Guoping, An Guoming and others.

This guy is not a good guy!

"Jiang Xia is such a good young man. Come, come, sit next to my aunt."

After Lin Cuihua finished speaking, Jiang Xia took the chopsticks and sat down obediently.

For a while, the only ones who didn't sit down were their brothers and sisters.

Lin Cuihua glanced sideways and said, "What are you looking at? You are still waiting for me to invite you."

"Happy, sit down and eat."

Headed by An Ning, the three of them sat down and prepared to eat.

"They are all good kids. These kids have great potential."

Grandpa Jiang Xia praised her, which made Lin Cuihua feel embarrassed but also a little proud.

"Thank you for your good words."

Everyone was chatting and laughing, the two families were no strangers to each other, and eating became more casual.

At the dinner table, An Sancheng thanked Jiang Xia for her help today. Jiang Xia said that they were all neighbors and it was just a matter of helping.

Everyone ate, drank, chatted, and talked about the New Year.

In the north, the twelfth lunar month is the new year.

The weather is cold and there is no work in the fields, so why not just think about how to celebrate the New Year?

"Uncle Jiang, where are you celebrating the New Year?"

"We're celebrating the New Year here. There's no one in Beijing and the city. It's just us, grandfather and grandson. We celebrate the New Year wherever we go."

What Grandpa Jiang Xia said was indeed the truth, but after saying it, it made people feel inexplicably sad.

Lin Cuihua was the first to bear the brunt. After looking at An Sancheng, the couple's years of tacit understanding made An Sancheng say, "Uncle Jiang, if you don't mind, come to my house to celebrate the New Year and let's spend it together."

"what?"

Grandpa Jiang Xia was very surprised and asked with an embarrassed expression: "Isn't this bad?"

"No, no, it's okay for both of us, but I don't want to cause any trouble to you."

Grandpa Jiang Xia's refusal made An Sancheng want to invite him even more.

"Uncle Jiang, you said that distant relatives are not as good as close neighbors. Last time An Ning had a fever, you gave me the medicine. It would be too strange if you didn't come."

An Sancheng said several words, and finally Grandpa Jiang Xia agreed. Everyone smiled happily and the atmosphere became more harmonious.

An Ning felt something was wrong. It wasn't that she understood Grandpa Jiang Xia's performance, but Grandpa Jiang Xia's mental strength. He was always excited and didn't look sad.

The one who knows what's going on best is Jiang Xia.

Little old man, he's acting again.

After the meal, Grandpa Jiang Xia stayed and talked with An Sancheng for a while. Jiang Xia diligently helped clear the table.

Unfortunately, the three brothers and sisters were one step ahead.

An Ning held a plate in one hand and glared at Jiang Xia threateningly.

"Jiang Xia, just sit there and drink some water. There are so many people, so we don't need you."

Jiang Xia couldn't help in the end. After sitting down for more than ten minutes, he and his grandfather wisely proposed to leave.

An Sancheng sent the two of them to the door, closed the door, and went back to the house to rest.

When he entered the house, he saw a family entering the west room and sitting on the kang. Each person had a pile of change and was counting.

"Come on, this pile is yours."

Lin Cuihua pointed to another pile, then turned back and continued counting her own.

"Mom, how many did I count?"

She forgot.

"Thirteen yuan and seventy-eight cents."

An Ning said a number and continued counting his own.

"Really?"

Lin Cuihua didn't know whether to believe it or not, so she simply counted it again.

"Oh, it's really 13 yuan and [-] cents."

An Ning counted a pile of ten yuan, tied it up, and put it aside. He said with a little pride, "Yeah, I'm pretty reliable when it comes to numbers."

An Ning, who was completely proud, was amused by himself.

When did counting become her pride?

A family, counting from the remaining light in the sky to the dark sky.

An Ning tied the flashlight with a rope and dropped it on the beam. It was used as a temporary light while everyone continued counting.

As she kept counting, Lin Cuihua's hands began to cramp.

“I didn’t expect that there would still be enough time to count the money.”

"No, I never dreamed of doing this before."

An Sancheng joked, and the family continued counting.

By this time, it was eight o'clock in the evening. Everyone was hungry, so Lin Cuihua made a midnight snack.

She cooked a pot of hot noodle soup, one bowl for each person, and two bowls for each person to eat.

"An Ning, how many are there in total?"

Tranquility is counting the total.

"A total of two thousand three hundred and seventy eight dollars and nine cents."

The movement and sounds of eating noodles stopped.

"How many?"

"Two thousand three hundred and seventy eight dollars and nine cents."

An Ning said it again.

An Guoming on the side nodded and said: "Absolutely, one-third of the goods have been sold."

He knows what he's buying himself.

Lin Cuihua gave up her job, not because she didn't know how to make money, but because she didn't know she could earn so much.

"It's not all [-] or [-] cents, how can it be so much?"

An Ning arranged the money neatly and said, "Mom, every household needs at least two couplets. Some people buy three or four pairs, with the word "Fu" on them, not less. In addition, we sell the God of Wealth. Lucky dolls, calendars, and candies, don’t they add up to a lot.”

"Everyone who comes to buy something can buy at least one or two yuan."

"You haven't seen how many people there are today."

An Guoqing said with great agreement: "Mom, there are so many people there, I have to hold my urine in."
