far and near

The village in the city ushered in a vigorous demolition, but some families were happy and others were sad—the northern section close to the Baijiang River was given priority for development, and the southern section was temporarily kept as it was.So at both ends of a street, Mao Xinxia's family signed a demolition agreement and waited to move, while Yuan Huifang continued to guard the fourth floor to do small business.

Mao Xinxia's mother-in-law is always smiling when she goes out these days when she has a happy event, and she is even more kind to Su Hai.As a big family in a village in the city, everyone wanted to know the content of their agreement.There are many versions of rumors. It is said that her family can earn seventy-eight million plus ten houses this time. The old lady was surprised, "Ten houses? How many people do you think my family has?"

There are five suites. Baizhou's policy is that the demolition households are divided into 300 square meters per person, and Mao Xinxia's family of five is [-] square meters.The other squares are converted into currency plus three commercial housing facades.Shao Shengwei will soon become a rich man with five houses, three houses and more than [-] million cash.He hugged Mao Xinxia on the bed and thought about the future, "In the future, don't open a store and focus on raising your son. My job is still going on. If I get angry again, I will resign. Even collecting rent and interest is enough for the whole family to live on."

Mao Xinxia was unwilling. Hair cutting was a skill she had learned since she was 15 years old. The two sisters in her family were poor at school, and her parents had already planned to let her find a job.I have held scissors for almost 20 years, even if I earn little, it has brought her the most reliable support.If she hadn't been able to make money herself, she wouldn't have taken Su Hai to divorce her ex-husband with confidence.So she persuaded Shao Shengwei, and the reason was that her husband's lung tube was poked, "Xiao Hai is not a reading material, I will continue to open a shop and teach her skills. After a few years, she can rely on this to eat before she retires."

Even if Su Hai starts to make money as an adult, and his son is only in primary school, it will not be too late for Mao Xinxia to concentrate on raising the child.The most important thing is that Suhai will not become a burden for squatting at home to eat.

So Mao Xinxia approached Yuan Huifang and rented a small shop on the side of her house that had not been used for many years to transform it into a barber shop.Now that the old sisters are getting closer, Yuan Huifang is of course happy, "After I clean up that shop, you can renovate it. The rent...you can pay it as you see."

Yuan Huifang's envy turned to envy, but she felt a little fortunate in her heart-Liu Maosong was still procrastinating not to get a divorce, and she had to spend money to find a lawyer to sue in court.She cleaned up the broken tables and chairs in the small shop, and her daughter Yuan Liu followed behind to sweep the floor.The sky was full of dust, Yuan Huifang's head was covered with white ash, and Yuan Liu's face was also stained.Apart from Mao Xinxia, ​​Yuan Huifang only whispered to Yuan Liu, "I won't give him a dime!"

Yuan Liu said, "Yes." Then he squatted down and pulled the rotted baseboard.

"I wish I had known those two sets would be renovated and rented out." Yuan Huifang felt distressed when he thought of the two vacant sets, "I have no money."

"En." Yuan Liu agreed while shoveling the oil on the ground, and then he muttered words like chanting scriptures.Yuan Huifang kicked her ass suddenly, Yuan Liu raised her head and saw Yuan Huifang squinting at her while propping up the broom with one hand on her hip, "Damn it, I'm talking to you, what are you carrying?"

"Mom, I'm reciting the little English storybook my sister Yu Ren bought for me." There are basic elementary school words on it, and Yuan Liu knows almost all of them. If she doesn't know, she also asks the teacher.

"It's like chanting scriptures." Yuan Huifang plucked the sawdust from her hair for her, "Your Auntie Mao opened a shop here, and Su Hai has been in our house all day long, so happy for you two."

Yuan Liu smiled happily, "Mom, Aunt Mao's house has no place to live for a while after the demolition, why don't you rent our house to them?"

"The old lady in her family always thinks that our house is broken, can you afford to rent it?" Yuan Huifang knew this well, so he never brought it up to embarrass Mao Xinxia.

"No, I mean, our rough house. I heard that it will take several years for her house to be demolished. Mom, why don't you pay the rent for the renovation? They pay for the renovation and move in for a few years by themselves. We also save on decoration costs." Isn't this the replacement mentioned in the simple math problem?I didn’t always learn this way when I was a child: How many apples did Xiao Ming exchange for how many bananas Xiao Hua had.

"Nonsense—" Yuan Huifang hadn't finished cursing, suddenly her eyes lit up, she thought for a while, and then patted Yuan Liu's head, "Gou Ri's brain is easy to use."

"And Mom, don't go to the food stall to wash dishes for others. You can earn thousands of yuan a month. If you get hurt, it won't be worth it." Yuan Liu felt sorry for Yuan Huifang's back disease.

"You change me a thousand yuan and I won't wash the dishes when I come back." Yuan Huifang scolded, "Isn't this so that I can take care of you close to home? If I were a bachelor, I could earn two thousand by going to work in the factory."

The rent income is more than 2000 per month, and the business of the broken Unicom store is getting worse and worse, and there are a lot of shit. There are often old people who don’t know how to charge ten yuan and then come back to quarrel with her, "Why am I still calling?" No phone?"

Yuan Huifang scolded, "You owe more than 50 yuan. I told you earlier that ten yuan will not work, and you still can't make calls. You need to charge at least 60 yuan."

That won't work, the old man and the old lady said Yuan Huifang, you swallowed ten yuan from me, and give it back to me.People don't recognize any bills, but they have identified the door of Yuan Huifang's family. If they don't refund the money, it means that she has ignorant of their money.

"I don't want to open the broken shop, but why not open it?" Yuan Huifang muttered.

"A lot of China Unicom mobile stores sell mobile phones, and they can also repair mobile phones. We can't just charge the phone bill." Yuan Liu stood up, and her height was already close to Yuan Huifang's nose. "Mom, why don't we do something else?" Yuan Liu, who collects money from the store, is a senior industry insider, and he pays special attention to this industry, "We don't know how to repair mobile phones, and selling mobile phones costs money. Let's—let's open a restaurant. Mom, you cook the best food!"

In fact, there are still cheap money to be made. There are several families in the village in the city that rent out their storefronts to massage girls, but Yuan Huifang doesn't like it. "Dog men come and go, how can this teach children?"

But there are already many restaurants in the villages in the city, and Yuan Huifang is afraid that he will not be able to support it alone, and he is also afraid that he will not be able to compete with others.

"You sell hot pot in winter, lobster in summer, glutinous rice balls in the morning, and fast food in the daytime!" Yuan Liu's lip-smacking made Yuan Huifang laugh.

"As far as you can tell." But she looked at the block to be demolished across the street, her mind turned quickly, and she thought that it was not impossible—the house was demolished and people are still here, and people have to eat.

Yuan Huifang immediately started running for the certificate, Yuan Liu didn't understand, "Why does Mom need a certificate?"

No certificate is a black shop.Yuan Huifang said, what we do is to understand the law and abide by the law. You see, although your mother is not educated, she obeys the rules.

Sanitation permits, food distribution permits, and catering service permits have been obtained one by one. Yuan Huifang, who has obtained the health certificate, can finally start a business and open a restaurant for N times.Yuan Huifang and Yuan Liu, who was doing homework under the fluorescent lamp, confided in each other: We sell soy milk and rice balls in the morning, which is clean, just cook the rice, and don’t have to worry about frying, deep-frying, and frying to make it dirty.We sell fast food at noon and in the evening, five meat and five vegetables are easy to prepare, and we change three dishes every two days.Who the hell loves to eat or not!

In the end, to praise Yuan Liu, you really have your brains.After school, I wash the dishes and choose vegetables for Lao Tzu, do you know?Yuan Liu nodded sensibly.

When Yuan Huifang opened the shop, Mao Xinxia's barber shop was also renovated.The style of the lintels of the two people is similar to the clothes they wear. Yuan Huifang's door is a big yellow background with "Huifang Hotel" written in big red. If you don't look carefully, you may think it is the temple color of red bricks and yellow walls.For this reason, she was proud of it for a long time, and told Yuan Liu that this is conspicuous and good-looking, go and see which store in the village in the whole city has a door as beautiful as ours.On the other hand, Mao Xinxia used black characters on a white background, and then decorated a circle of light tubes.When Mao Xinxia was proud, Yuan Huifang frowned, "Xiao Mao, what about...opening a shroud shop?"

Old sisters must have mutual tolerance.Mao Xinxia looked at the shroud store-like doorway and finally changed it to blue and white after two days, which is fashionable, simple and Chelsea.

After school, the two little girls, one tall and one short, ate spicy sticks at the school gate and went straight home. Su Hai ran his fingers through the guest's hair, and Yuan Liuze, who kept chanting, sat by the sink to choose and wash vegetables.

Mao Xinxia is in the business of regular customers, and now she is renting a house in another place, so coming to the store is more like going to work, and the business is not bad.Yuan Huifang knows how to cook, and Yuan Liu likes to be clean. Unlike her dusty Unicom shop, Yuan Liu, who grew up slowly, would wipe the shop clean inside and out every night before closing.She also turned to educate Yuan Huifang, "Mom, our family cooks food, and if the shop is not clean, no one will come."

Yuan Huifang held a big teacup and said that you don't need to worry about it, my shop has always been clean.On the opposite side, a construction wall had already been built, and Mao Xinxia's seven-story building was knocked down one by one in front of her.

Regarding Yuan Liu’s suggestion of replacing the rent with renovation, Yuan Huifang is still playing the game, “People’s hearts are unpredictable. We don’t charge rent, and the other party’s decoration will look cheaper for us. But if they have bad intentions, the house will be demolished when it expires. Materials, even those that could not be dismantled, were smashed, and when we run out of property and money, who will we cry to?" So Yuan Huifang decided to save the decoration expenses by himself.

Obviously these words made Yuan Liu dumbfounded, "Why?"

Why?Yuan Huifang took a sip of tea proudly, this is fucking human nature!When she was a child, when the village in the city was really a village, there were farmers with good conditions whose crops were uprooted overnight by envious people.

"People can't see you well, even if there is no grievance or enmity." Yuan Huifang said.

"But elder sister Yu Ren is very kind to me." In Yuan Liu's heart, everyone would compare her to Yu Ren.My sister calls her every week to ask about her studies, and she always wants to take her to study or go out to play during holidays.Even if she has a new servant by her side now, the doctor sister will accompany them all day long when she comes back from the Spring Festival.

"Xiao Yu is an ordinary person?" Yuan Huifang said, "That's why they take the famous brand test. Everyone has passed the famous brand test and has good intentions. When you wake up, you will be communism."

At eight o'clock in the evening, there were only one or two customers in the store. Yuan Liu was doing homework at the dining table, and Yuan Huifang was sitting in front of the door looking at the drastically changed urban village.After Su Hai washed the seventh guest's head, he went out to play with Yuan Liu and copy some homework.

When she walked past Yuan Huifang, adults were always surprised by her tall figure among her peers, "Xiao Hai, have you grown taller?"

"That's right, my mother said I don't grow any longer. How can I control my legs?" Su Hai sat opposite Yuan Liu and began to copy homework. Yuan Huifang couldn't help but looked at the two growing children. Looking at his palms, when Bi Xiaoliu first came home, his hands had become old and rough, and there was still a lot of pigmentation on the back of his hands.

When Su Hai sat down, she was a head taller than Yuan Liu. Because of this head, she was arranged by the teacher to sit in the last row today.Yuan Liu raised his hand, "Teacher, can I sit with Su Hai?"

Su Hai, who didn't care about switching positions, was moved at that moment. She took out half a bag of gummies from her pocket, "Here you are."

Yuan Liu said to eat together, and the two children would eat a candy while doing their homework.A quiet night will come to an end at nine o'clock, when Su Hai returns home, Yuan Huifang closes the store, and Xiao Liu washes up and goes to bed.

Wouldn't it be great if the child grew up slower?Yuan Huifang put the cup to his mouth, and it was empty in his hand. Liu Maosong, who hadn't seen him for a long time, snatched the cup and drank it himself. , should we talk about our affairs?"

"What are you talking about? Go to the court and say it." Yuan Huifang stood up and wanted to grab the cup back, but saw Liu Maosong pointing at her with a wrench, "Aren't you fucking going to get a divorce and still make up your mind that you won't make a fortune? I want you to do it." No business."

As soon as the words fell, he raised the wrench and smashed the cabinet of the fast food restaurant. The few remaining pieces of bean sprouts, meat and fish were all kicked to the ground, Yuan Huifang tried to stop but did not stop.The guests were so frightened that they put down their chopsticks and ran away. Liu Maosong was very satisfied with the mess, "To save face for you today, I chose to smash it at night. You pack it up another day, and I will smash it at noon when there are many people." He imitated In the same way, he gave back to him, pulled out the cashier drawer, grabbed all the remaining bills in his pocket, and then lit a cigarette with a wrench on his shoulder and left.

Yuan Huifang chased after him and scolded, "Damn you!"

"I'm going to die and you don't want to feel better!" Liu Maosong turned to give her a gouging look, "You wait for me."

Seeing all this, Yuan Liu's face also turned pale. She felt extremely sad when she saw the smashed and kicked over cupboard. This was her and Yuan Huifang's hope of living, and it was completely ruined.After the tears flowed, she chased after Liu Maosong, "You pay back my mother's money!"

Yuan Liu held Liu Maosong's arm and refused to let go. Seeing that he was about to break free, he bit him hard.

"You're looking for death, stinky girl." Liu Maosong, who was suffering from pain, smashed Yuan Liu's leg with a stick in his hand, but his hand was held back by Yuan Huifang who followed, "I want you to die!"

This desperate family of three wrestled on the road. When the situation was unclear, Su Hai jumped out of the store after eating the last gummy candy, "Xiao Liu, let me help you!" Liu Maosong's thin body was suffocated in the way of grabbing the header inside, and he was dazzled and dizzy. The tongue that hit Su Hai's elbow rubbed against his jaw and bled.

Su Hai pulled Yuan Liu and glared at Liu Maosong, "Repay the money!"

Yuan Liu pulled Yuan Huifang, "Mom, call the police!"

Yuan Huifang grabbed Liu Maosong's wrench, and grabbed his clothes with the other hand, "Liu, you are fucking dead!" You're done!"
