Rebirth 1975: My Wife is Love-Brained

Han Meimei said hesitantly, "Well, I see you come here every day. You sell things for yourself, and I sell things for myself. You are working in the production team in Zhangzitou, and the village must have arranged work for you. I thought, why don't you just deliver it to me directly! This way you can go back to the village to work earlier. You can also earn more work points! As for me, I can also... can also..."

Han Meimei felt embarrassed to continue talking.

But Chen Yan had already understood what she meant.

Han Meimei also wants to earn more.

In fact it is.

In the past, she worked as a ticket collector in a cinema. It was a pretty good job as she could earn a salary every month and it was a stable job.

But... since I met Chen Yan, I can earn an extra dollar a day!

In the past ten days, she has earned more than ten yuan.

It’s almost as much as half a month’s salary for her!

Han Meimei earned seven dollars last week, and she couldn't stop thinking about the big bowl of braised pork in the state-owned restaurant, so she took some time off to go there with her family.

As a result, the family ate three full bowls and still felt like they were not full!

But at the end of the week, Han Meimei only earned seven dollars.

I wanted another bowl at that time, but in the end I couldn't bear to give it up.

So after returning home, Han Meimei discussed with her family how great it would be if she could earn more.

But the one dollar Chen Yan gave her was already quite high. If he asked for more, who would agree?

In desperation, Han Meimei was always frowning when she went to bed at night, and even ate braised pork in her dreams.

When I woke up in the morning, my pillowcase was soaked with my saliva.

These days, it's really not easy to eat a bowl of braised pork.

The taste... is absolutely amazing!

It was fatty and greasy. Han Meimei wanted to eat it more and more as she took a bite of it.

But she was reluctant to use her salary to eat in a state-owned restaurant. After thinking it over, her husband said, "The educated youth is in the village. Since he can let you help sell in the afternoon, why don't you see if he is willing to help in the morning? If he is willing, even if you can't earn two dollars a day, at least a dollar or a few dollars will be fine. Then next time you go to eat braised pork, you can order an extra bowl, right?"

Thinking of this, Han Meimei suddenly understood!

Isn't that the truth?

So I hurried to the cinema.

Usually she goes to work at 8:30, but Han Meimei usually comes back when the movie starts at around 9:00.

But today I had something on my mind, so I arrived here a little after seven o'clock.

After arriving, the entire cinema was empty, with no one in sight. Han Meimei had never felt such a painful time passing.

He sat in his small office, gulping down several enamel jars of boiled water, waiting for Chen Yan to come.

But it was already past nine o'clock and Chen Yan still hadn't come!

Han Meimei suddenly became anxious.

Then I thought, what if Chen Yan disagrees? What should I do?

The more she thought about it, the less confident she felt.

What if Chen Yan thinks that I am too greedy and doesn’t need me in the afternoon?

Han Meimei's heart was beating like a drum.

Even when I was checking my tickets, I felt a little dazed.

Unexpectedly, Chen Yan came when she was daydreaming, which led to the current scene.

In fact, Han Meimei was very nervous, fearing that Chen Yan would be angry and not let her sell even in the afternoon, and she would not be able to earn a single dollar at that time.

However, what she didn't expect was that Chen Yan was not angry, but just asked the reason.

At this moment Chen Yan fell into deep thought.

He had actually thought about letting Han Meimei do this business in the morning and afternoon, but... this was actually hiring someone to do the business.

If you make some small things and sell them secretly, there is no problem!

But if you hire someone, the nature of the matter is different in this era.

If you really put a hat of capitalism on your head because of this incident, it would be a waste of time.

"If the policy relaxation is to reach a small county like Lanshan, it will probably take some time!" Chen Yan sighed in his heart.

At this time, Han Meimei saw that Chen Yan didn't say anything, and she couldn't help but feel worried.

"Chen Zhiqing, is it not possible? If not, forget it! It's okay, I'm really sorry!" Han Meimei smiled cautiously, fearing that she would not be able to earn even one dollar.

Ugh!

Chen Yan sighed!

"Sister Han, I actually had the same idea, but... I'm a little scared now!" Chen Yan said with a sigh.

Ok?

Han Meimei stared at the boss with her eyes wide open and her face was filled with joy!

Chen Zhiqing didn’t refuse? I was so scared!

"You, what are you afraid of? Chen Zhiqing?" Han Meimei asked quickly.

Chen Yan lowered his voice and said, "Originally, I made this thing to sell it myself and make some money to supplement my family's income! The profit is not very big! Because we have a good relationship, I thought of asking Sister Han to help me with this. I will sell it in the morning and you sell it in the afternoon! But if I give it all to you, what if someone reports it and says that I hired you to do this, then the police will not let me off!"

Han Meimei was stunned for a moment!

Before, she was only thinking about earning the money to eat braised pork, and had not thought about this aspect at all. But now, after hearing what Chen Yan said, she suddenly felt a wave of fear in her heart!

Yes!

This is speculation and profiteering, this is undermining socialism! This... is punishable by labor reform!

After waking up, Han Meimei's face turned pale and she was completely panicked.

"What should I do, Chen Zhiqing, you can't just ignore me, I... I just wanted to do something to help you, what should I do if the police come to arrest me?" Han Meimei grabbed Chen Yan's sleeve.

Chen Yan looked embarrassed!

Just keep talking, don't pull my clothes!

If someone comes in, it will be hard to explain.

"Well, Sister Han, don't be anxious! Listen to what I have to say! It's not that serious!" Chen Yan calmly pulled his sleeve out of Han Meimei's hand.

"Oh oh oh! You say, you say! Chen Zhiqing, you are an intellectual, you know a lot, I will listen to you!" At this time, Han Meimei was completely at a loss.

The scene of the police coming to arrest me appeared uncontrollably in my mind!

"Actually, this matter is not that serious! As long as we are not in an employment relationship, it's fine!" Chen Yan said in a deep voice.

Han Meimei was stunned for a moment, "Isn't it an employment relationship?"

Chen Yan nodded, "Yes! Tell me, if you have something at home and you give it to your family, does that count as employment? No, right?"

Han Meimei nodded, not quite understanding, "But we are not a family! I'm married!"

Speaking of this, Han Meimei's face turned red, and she looked at Chen Yan shyly!

I……

Chen Yan opened his mouth and said, "Sister Han, what are you thinking about?"

"Hehe, Sister Han, that's not what I meant. What I meant was, wouldn't it be okay if you were my sister?" Chen Yan really couldn't bear it anymore and quickly spoke out his thoughts.
