Accidentally Born in the ‘60s: (Catch bugs)
There are only a few clothes left for sale this time, but there are a bag of stockings, a few skirts, and two pairs of jeans on the canvas on the ground. Meat Bun patted the small bag on the waist and bubbling: "Classmates, come and see the latest styles in Guangdong Province, the most fashionable clothes, the most fashionable socks, are exactly the same as those worn by female stars in the movie, and they are everywhere in shopping malls. You can't buy good stuff."
Several girls gathered around, picked up the skirt on the large canvas and measured it against her body: "Does this skirt have a large size?"
The meat bun sighed regretfully: "You are late, the big one was just taken away by a senior, or you will look good in it."
The girl gave an annoyed cry and looked at the meat bun with some unwillingness: "Isn't there any bigger one? I don't know when you came back this time. I just heard that you came over, why did it disappear?"
"You don't know, classmate, it's not easy to carry clothes back. Look at how much I can carry each time by myself? So many clothes are already the limit of what I can bring back. Next time you come earlier, I'll keep one for you." The meat bun is very neat, and it sounds nice, the girl put down her skirt, picked up a pair of jeans and measured it, and finally bought a pair of trousers, two pairs of stockings happily gone.
It is not the first time for Meat Bun to sell clothes at school. He is honest and sincere in his clothes. He chooses not only the style but also the quality. Take the skirt as an example. The school also has a good reputation. The students know that there is a student in this school that sells clothes that are better than those bought in the shopping malls outside.
In about half an hour, a girl finished buying the last pair of long stockings on the stall, and the students who ran late could only sigh regretfully. A girl looked at the meat wrapped in canvas and leaned over to ask : "Student Li Chengrun, when will you go to Guangdong Province to bring your clothes back next time?"
The meat bun looked up and smiled: "This month I have to make up for the missed classes, and I have to wait another two months."
The girl was a little disappointed: "Then I can't wear the new skirt."
The meat bun immediately said: "I'll go into the windbreaker next time. You don't know that the windbreakers over there are all Hong Kong Island styles. They look good in special pomp, just like movie stars on Hong Kong Island."
Recently, movies on Hong Kong Island have taken the campus by storm. As soon as they heard that they were wearing the same trench coats as Hong Kong Island stars, the girls nodded again and again, and did not forget to ask: "Next time, you can go to our girls' dormitory in Building 3 first. Go sell it, don't let Building No. 8 take the lead."
Meat Bun put the folded canvas in the bag next to him and stood up: "Okay, I remember it."
Waving with a few girls, Meat Bun happily planned to go back to the dormitory to put some money in the bank, then invite the students in the dormitory to have a meal, and then start the crazy make-up mode. Turning around and just taking two steps, the meat bun looked up and all the calculations in his mind suddenly disappeared, and his face turned pale in an instant, looking at Li Mingdong who was standing not far away with a pale face, grabbed the bag and ran away.
Seeing that the meat buns didn't come to admit their mistakes, Ming Dong dared to run, his lungs burst with anger, and he scolded while running: "Little bastard, stop for me."
The meat bun didn't even dare to stop, and ran out of the campus in a flash. Seeing that a bus was heading for the courtyard, he got on the bus immediately. Ming Dong ran a little slower, and only saw a bunch of black smoke at the bus stop. He leaned against the tree and gasped, pointing at the meat bun on the bus, but couldn't say a word.
"I'm dead, I'm dead." Meat Bun sat in the last row of seats and looked at his own father's vicious appearance, and prayed in his heart: "Little aunt, please be at home, or else you will go home. I can't see the meat bun anymore, I guess I can only see a broken bun skin."
Today is Saturday, and many students got on the bus along the way. All of them were locals who went home to improve their lives. The meat buns were on pins and needles, and their minds were in chaos. I really couldn't understand why my father came to school.
Hou Yang arrived, and the meat bun ran to the courtyard in a flash, and as soon as he entered the gate, he screamed and howled: "Little aunt!" Well."
Seeing that my mother was there, Meat Bun's feet immediately softened, and only a head was exposed behind the tree: "Mom, mother, where is my aunt?"
Osmanthus smiled and rolled her eyes at him: "This child is so coquettish and called so many mothers, really." The meat bun was almost made to cry by his own mother: "Mom, don't make trouble, where is my aunt? "Osmanthus pointed to the back: "Your aunt is in the garden." Meat Bun immediately got out from behind the tree, ready to go to the garden to find aunt for help.
"Wait." Osmanthus glanced at the courtyard door, and asked Meat Bun a little strangely: "What about your dad, I didn't ask your dad to go to school and tell you to go back to your grandma's house for dinner. Where did he go?"
Meat Bun was about to kneel before Osmanthus, he shook his head wanting to cry without tears: "You are really my mother!" As soon as he ran up the corridor, Meat Bun stretched out his head and shouted: "Mom , you will come back to my dad, you have to tell him well, I am my own son, so be careful."
After the meat bun said, he ran back, Osmanthus put down the curtain in confusion, Wang Sufen, who was making dumplings in the house, looked up at her: "What happened to the meat bun?"
"I don't know." Osmanthus shook her head: "It looks like something is wrong, I'm afraid his dad will beat him."
Old Mrs. Li was sitting on the table by the window eating grapes. She looked up at Osmanthus and couldn't help but speak to her great-grandson: "He's such a big bun, he's a college student again, what's the matter? If you can't talk about it, you have to fight, and when Mingdong comes, you let him in, I have to talk to him, if he dares to beat the meat bun, I will beat him first."
Osmanthus smiled and replied first: "Okay, I'll talk to Mingdong." After a while, she showed some doubts and confusion on her face: "Actually, Mingdong is not a person who likes to beat children. I haven't touched a finger of a few children for so many years, what's the trouble this time?"
Several people murmured for a long time and couldn't figure out why he came, so they simply ignored him, anyway, when Mingdong came, they would know.
****
The meat bun ran back along the long corridor, and just after a few steps, he saw Zhen Zhen approaching: "Little aunt, help!" Zhen Zhen glanced at him: "What's the matter, tell me ."
The meat bun looked around, with despair on his face: "Auntie, why don't you find a place to hide me first, I'm afraid my dad will come and kill me in a while."
Zhen Zhen paused and looked at him with sympathy: "Does your father know about your business?"
The meat bun nodded in dismay: "He can see clearly and clearly."
Zhen Zhen smiled and shook her head: "It's okay, you can stay in my room first, your dad won't come into my room."
The meat bun was relieved when he heard it. When he got to the main courtyard, he first stretched out his head to take a look and saw that no one was in the courtyard, so he crept into Zhen Zhen's room, and then closed the door tightly.
Zhen Zhen used her consciousness to see Meat Bun spinning around the room twice, and finally got directly under the bed, she couldn't help laughing, but it's fortunate that Wang Sufen usually wipes the floor twice a day, otherwise Meat Bun Must be covered in ashes.
Zhen Zhen went directly into the main room, and Mrs. Li saw her pointing to the grapes in the basin: "I just cut the grapes from the vines, and put them in the well water for a while, it's sweet and relieves the heat. , come and eat."
Zhen Zhen went out to wash her hands, then came back and picked two grapes and stuffed one into the mouths of Wang Sufen and Osmanthus, Osmanthus bit the grapes, and the cold sweet water flowed into her mouth, Osmanthus squinted her eyes and nodded: " The grapes are so sweet."
"The vines that existed in this yard originally thought they were dead when I first moved in. I was going to let your father tear the vines, but Zhen Zhen was served alive. It's really sweet, even better than what your uncle brought."
Zhen Zhen stuffed grapes into her mouth and fed Wang Sufen and Osmanthus two from time to time. Suddenly Zhen Zhen's hand paused, she realized that Ming Dong got off the bus and was running home with an angry face .
Zhen Zhen took a plate of grapes back to the house and stuffed it under the bed: "Your dad is coming back soon, you can lie down. Eat some grapes and calm down, I don't think you can eat it tonight. Dinner."
The plate was dragged in, and a muffled plea came from inside: "Young aunt, you must help me to persuade my father."
"Don't worry, you won't die." Zhen Zhen stood up and opened several windows, the house was too hot and the meat bun was stuffed.
As soon as Zhen Zhen returned to the main room, Ming Dong also entered the yard. He staggered into the room one step at a time, clutching his chest and gasping for breath: "Where's that **** Li Chengrun, let him get out of here for me."
Zhen Zhen took a cup of cold boiled water and put it on the side table, then took a wet towel and handed it to him to wipe his face: "Brother, what are you looking for? Why don't you tell me first, I'll give You analyze and analyze."
"If I tell you you're going to be mad." Ming Dong waved his hand and looked for meat buns everywhere: "Don't waste that matter, I'll beat him to death first."
Seeing that Mingdong was about to stand up, Zhen Zhen pressed him back on the chair: "Brother, Meat Bun is already an adult, you should let him grow up." Put the water in Ming Dong's hand: " Say something first."
"Zhen Zhen is right." Mrs. Li glanced at Ming Dong: "You are already in your forties, so you can't calm down when you are in trouble? Don't be in a hurry to beat the meat bun, what the **** is he doing? Tell me what happened, if he does something wrong, I promise not to stop you if you hit him again."
Mingdong drank the water in a few gulps and sighed: "Why don't you go home to make dumplings today, Osmanthus told me to go to school and ask for meat buns together. As soon as I entered the school, I met some of his classmates. , when I asked them that they were selling clothes. I was surprised at the time, what kind of clothes did I say? In Guangdong Province, it is not the first time that I have wholesale clothes and come back to sell them. I said that he is always away from home during the summer vacation. I foolishly thought he went to school to study, and he went out to sell the co-authors. The clothes are gone."
Several people in the family looked at each other, and even Mrs. Li was stunned. This was a bit unexpected, and for a while, several people didn't know what to do. The room was very quiet, and suddenly Osmanthus tapped the rolling pin on the panel: "Where is this **** hiding, let's see if I don't kill him."
Wang Sufen was taken aback by surprise, and quickly snatched the rolling pin from Osmanthus's hand: "It's fine if he goes crazy alone, why do you have to persuade him to beat the child together, won't it hurt?"
Zhen Zhen also pressed Osmanthus onto the stool, took a wet towel to wipe her hands, and sat on the side: "Brother and sister-in-law, it's not that I want to help the meat bun, I think we have to listen to him this time. Just beat him up."
Mingdong sneered: "Okay, I'll listen to his explanation, you call him out."
Zhen Zhen quickly shook her head: "I'm afraid you won't be able to listen to the explanation when he comes out, you just want to beat him."
"You just protect him." Ming Dong pointed at Zhen Zhen and slammed the hammer off the table angrily.
Zhen Zhen touched her nose and looked at Ming Dong and Osmanthus: "Brother and sister-in-law, let me ask you a question first, what makes you most angry about the meat bun business this time?"
"Is there any need to say this? Is this the student's doing? How much delay in studying?" Ming Dong said, and became angry again: "The university in the imperial capital is so difficult to pass the test, he thought it would be over if he was admitted to the university, Wouldn't it be a waste of time if you don't study hard?"
Zhen Zhen refilled Ming Dong with a glass of water: "Then let me ask you, how was the final exam score of the last semester?"
Mingdong was stunned for a while, and then said: "It's good, I ranked fifth, and I even won a scholarship."
Zhen Zhen smiled: "Isn't this also a delay in studying?" Seeing Ming Dong's puzzled look, Zhen Zhen threw a big mine: "Actually, I didn't know about the meat bun selling clothes from the very beginning. I know." Looking at everyone's wide-eyed eyes, Zhen Zhen added: "I still give the capital."
"No, Zhen Zhen, you are too used to him." Ming Dong was anxious: "Why didn't you tell me about such a big thing, did this stinky boy come to ask you for money, he owes him money? How much did you pay?"
"The money has already been paid back." Zhen Zhen pressed him back to the chair again: "Brother, why are you in such a hurry now? Are you menopause earlier?" Zhen Zhen sat on her stool and spoke earnestly. Said: "I'm also afraid that doing business will delay the study of Meat Bun. I have been staring at Meat Bun's grades for the past few months. Every time he comes to the classroom, he shows me the exam papers. I can see that his homework has not been missed. I didn't tell you. You can see that he started going to the south when he opened the spring. He ran twice last semester, but he was still able to get fifth place in the final exam. >
Ming Dong was immediately blocked and turned his head angrily.
Zhen Zhen took a sip of water, and then said nicely: "In the spring, the meat bun came to me and said that jeans are now popular all over the street. Although they are more expensive, they are not worried about sales. He asked about it and said that they are all It was produced in the south, and I wanted to ask me to borrow some capital and buy some clothes to sell. I also considered his study and the safety of him going to the south by himself, but he also considered these meat buns himself, he is not a brainless child , on the contrary, he has more brains than others, he knows to seize the opportunity to seize the policy, I think I should support him."
Looking at the blank faces in the room, Zhen Zhen continued: "Brother, times have changed now, you watch TV and listen to the radio every day talking about reform and opening up, what is reform and opening up, and to put it bluntly, it means domestic reform and opening up The internal reform is the establishment of a socialist market economic system, rural households are contracted for production, and family sideline businesses are encouraged. In cities and towns, individual restaurants, clothing stores, shops, and factories and enterprises can be opened in the future. Don't look at Meat Bun now, but when he accumulates funds, you don't know how far he can go next."
Mr. Li looked at Zhen Zhen and put a grape in her mouth: "You mean the meat bun wants to be a capitalist?"
Zhen Zhen smiled and said, "Honey, capitalist is not a derogatory term in the future. It will be an honorable thing to have a famous capitalist in the future."
Wang Sufen was a little scared when she heard it: "What if the capitalists are defeated in the future?"
"Mom, don't worry, there will be no such thing in the future. The country needs to develop rapidly, and the economy is the first priority. In the future, instead of suppressing it, it will give strong support. Isn't this happening on TV every day? ." Zhen Zhen looked back at Ming Dong again: "Our mother doesn't understand this, you won't understand."
"What's so good about doing business?" Mingdong scratched his hair: "You said that he is now a famous university, after graduation, he can work in the unit, and the iron rice bowl that guarantees income during drought and flood is no better than setting up a stall outside. ."
"Everyone has their own aspirations." Zhen Zhen smiled: "And I believe that the meat bun will not be a stall for a lifetime. He has accumulated the original capital. After graduation, whether to join the unit or start a business is up to him to choose." Seeing Ming Dong gradually calm down, Zhen Zhen said solemnly: "Brother, he should decide his life by himself, just like when you went to college and went to teach, my dad didn't follow you to mix it up? ?"
"He wants to make peace, so he can understand." Wang Sufen complained about her old man, and then followed up with a persuasion, "Mingdong, I think what your sister said makes sense, she is the smartest in our family, Otherwise, listen to your sister, have a good talk with the meat bun, and don't beat and beat you at every turn, you are also a cultural person after all."
Osmanthus really calmed down after listening to it for a long time. She looked at Zhen Zhen and asked, "He really started doing this last semester? Didn't he delay his studies?"
"Can I take the fifth test if I delay studying? I think it will also promote his study. Sister-in-law, our meat bun is studying economics, and his business is also a kind of economic form. I think it can help him better. He can understand the knowledge in books, and in turn, the content in books can help him go further in the market economy." Zhen Zhen smiled: "I think Roubao has a very clear mind, and he is very knowledgeable about what he does. ."
"That's fine, just listen to him." Guihua pushed Mingdong's hand: "Calm down first, and when you think you can talk about it, call out the meat bun."
"Call it now, I won't beat him." Ming Dong wiped his face and asked Zhen Zhen again: "Is the money owed to you by Rou Bao? Don't protect him, we'll return One yard, how many brothers to make up for it."
"Really." Zhen Zhen smiled and rolled her eyes: "You can rest assured, do you think I am the one who suffers?"
"Then he asked you how much you borrowed?" Osmanthus hadn't traveled that far, but she felt that she had to buy a bus ticket, eat and live, and wear clothes.
"Meibao asked me to borrow two hundred, and I gave him one thousand." Zhen Zhen stood up and was about to call Meatbao, but just after taking a step, a scream grabbed her legs: "How much did you give him? A thousand?" Gui Hua's hands trembled: "Fuck, he can pay back so much money, don't say anything, just beat him with a rolling pin."
"It's really still." Zhen Zhen held her down, dumbfounded: "Sister-in-law, you underestimate the meat bun, I told you that he paid me back the capital and made more than 2,000 yuan for the first business. Tell you that your son will be able to become a household of 10,000 yuan by the end of the year.
Osmanthus trembled even more when she heard this, she felt like she was about to faint.
Zhen Zhen went back to the house and called out the meat bun from under the bed: "Come out, I've agreed with your parents, you can just tell them what you think when the time comes."
The meat bun pushed out a plate of grape skins and seeds. He also got up from under the bed and moved his numb limbs. The meat bun stretched his neck and looked at the main room from the window: "Auntie, Don't lie to me, if an honest man like my dad gets angry, he can really kill him."
"You can rest assured." Zhen Zhen thought for a while and added: "It's just that I told your mother that you made a lot of money and she was a little scared."
"It's fine, my mom is much more accepting than my dad." Meat Bun heaved a sigh of relief, followed Zhen Zhen back to the main room, and before Ming Dong could speak, he cracked and said: "Parents, I was wrong. I shouldn't do business without telling you. I promise that next time I will discuss everything with you first, and I won't delay learning."
Mingdong and Osmanthus were almost choked up by his nonstop words. Mingdong patted his chest and pointed to a bench opposite: "Sit down and talk first."
The meat bun was instantly overjoyed when he heard it, which made him sit down. It seemed that he really skipped the part of being beaten, and he couldn't help but make a grateful gesture to Zhen Zhen.
"Li Chengrun, tell me, what do you want to do after graduation?" Ming Dong took a sip of water and spoke in a calmer tone.
"Dad, I know you want me to go to the government or work in the unit after graduation, but that's not what I like." Talking about his future, Roubao's tone was also a lot more serious: "I don't like it. Living step by step, I hope that my future work and life will be controlled by myself, I hope I can seize the trend of policy and stand at the forefront of the times. Dad, I also want to build my own business kingdom, just like me from books Like the biographies of those foreign business tycoons I read, there may be ups and downs in the process, there may be twists and turns, there may be failures, and there may be brilliant achievements, but no matter what the result is, I will not regret it, because I think that life is very exciting. "
Mingdong and Osmanthus were all silent after hearing Roubao's words. Mingdong closed his eyes and didn't know what he was thinking. After a long time, he opened his eyes and turned to look at Osmanthus: "Do you think his idea is feasible?"
Osmanthus didn't look at Mingdong, but asked Roubao: "How much money have you made in the past few months?"
The meat bun grinned and touched the bulging shoulder bag: "With the money earned this time, there are six thousand seven in total."
Ming Dong took a deep breath. He didn't know if the sum of money he had earned over the years was enough for six thousand seven. For a time, he looked at his son with a complicated expression.
"Have you made up your mind? If you really do business, you might not be as good as your classmates when you say it out loud. After all, if someone graduates from some unit or some department, it's not like you. Small business people can compare." Osmanthus looked at the meat bun with a very serious tone.
"I think about it." Ming Dong grinned: "I will never regret the decision I made."
"That's fine." Osmanthus slapped the table: "Mom supports you, next time you go to Guangdong Province to buy goods, Mom will go with you."
"No, what are you doing?" Rou Bao stared at Osmanthus in a stunned manner. No matter how flexible his mind was, he never understood what Osmanthus was thinking.
"The two people don't buy much." Osmanthus rolled his eyes at him: "Mom will work with you in the future."
Mingdong rolled his eyes and collapsed onto the chair.
