59. A good life in Aunt Jiang's heart
When Yao Yuan bought a motorcycle, the "big" project of the neighbors in the east had not yet started, and the workers were picking up their heads all over the world.
Before the project was completed, the worker's wife lived in her hometown in the countryside, while the worker still lived in a single dormitory. But the construction department came to build a partition wall to separate Yao Yuan from the east house, which was still empty.
After dinner, Aunt Jiang took her family to Yao Yuan to see his newly bought motorcycle.
When everyone entered the yard, Yao Yuan opened the lights in the yard and saw two orange motorcycles sitting side by side in the windowsill of the inner room on the east side.
The paint was brand new, but there was a lot of dust on it. It was the one that Yao Yuan rode when he went to Xiaohui. The newer one was the one that was beautiful.
No one has seen this kind of fresh play, and they all love it so much. Even Yaoyao asked her mother to take her out for a walk.
Kang Kang coaxed her and said, "It's too late today, no. Is it okay for my mother to take her out tomorrow?"
Shake said, "Then I won't go to school tomorrow. Mom, take me to the place where you work in the city."
Shaking the tube to go to the nursery is called going to school.
Kang Kang lowered his face and said, "Does there be any good kids who skip school? What do you usually tell you? When you wait Sunday, you can't go to school anymore, so Mom will take you and Yuanyuan to play together."
Seeing that Yaoyao's little face was about to cry aggrievedly, Meimei pulled her over to coax her: "Tomorrow, Yaoyao will leave school, and my aunt will ride a motorcycle to take you to play. OK? This one was bought by your father for my aunt, and my aunt also has a motorcycle."
Yaoyao said, "Auntie, you go pick me up from school tomorrow and you will ride it. I asked my classmates to watch the motorcycles too."
Aunt Jiang said, "You are waiting for your aunt to pick you up. I guess even the teacher in the nursery school has left."
Then he asked Yao Yuan: "Is this thing very expensive, how much did I buy it?"
Yao Yuan said: "It's not expensive, it's 751."
"What?" Aunt Jiang was startled, "Oh my god, this thing is more expensive than TV! You can buy two at once. How rich are you?"
Aunt Jiang's voice could be heard two miles away.
Yao Yuan hurriedly stopped Aunt Jiang's words and said, "Mom, let's go into the house and talk in the house."
Aunt Jiang also realized that she shouldn't be so angry, so she followed Yao Yuan into the house, and the whole family followed her into Yao Yuan's house.
Yao Yuan told Aunt Jiang the price of this motorcycle going into production one year later based on his own memory.
At that time, because of the introduction of automatic production lines abroad, the cost was reduced, and the price was already half cheaper than now.
Unexpectedly, Yao Yuan said such a much lower price, but he still scared Aunt Jiang. If Aunt Jiang knew that this thing would cost 1,800 yuan per car, Yao Yuan did not only buy two, but bought three at once, which would probably scare him.
Yao Yuan made the clothes and even had a fixed shop, leaving only the small Ming and Qing dynasties that he rented. The couple was tinkering with clothes inside.
Not to mention Aunt Jiang, even many experts who studied economy at that time, probably couldn't understand how much money he could make in January?
Therefore, Yao Yuan wanted to give Aunt Jiang a lot of money every month, and Aunt Jiang was too lazy to ask. After asking, even if Yao Yuan told her, she couldn't understand.
When building an underground processing factory at home, Yao Yuan gave Aunt Jiang three hundred a month, and when he went to the city, he added another hundred. When the store was expanded to four, Yao Yuan added another hundred.
I gave Aunt Jiang a TV money in January. This is an ordinary worker who doesn’t eat or drink and needs to save nearly a year of money! I directly scared Aunt Jiang.
Yao Yuan saw Aunt Jiang's eyes wide open and looked at him, and knew that Aunt Jiang was afraid. He quickly lie and said that the benefits were good this month, so he gave her an extra 100. Next month, Yao Yuan would only dare to give Aunt Jiang four hundred.
Now, Yao Yuan actually spent 1,500 to buy two motorcycles at a time. This is equivalent to a modern person buying a mid-to-low-end sedan, and is in an era when he is still sensitive to money. How can Aunt Jiang not be afraid?
Everyone entered the house and the children climbed onto the bed to play. Aunt Jiang and Kang Kang sat on the edge of the bed. Seeing that the two children were not falling off, Meimei and Yao Yuan sat on the sofa.
Aunt Jiang asked Yao Yuan: "Damn it, tell me the truth, how much money can you make this month? Isn't my mother afraid that you can make money, but Isn't my mother afraid that if I make too much money, Isn't it going to break it? If someone buys a TV, you don't let you buy it, aren't you also afraid that people will know that it's not good if they have too much money?"
Aunt Jiang likes to be lively. When she had the first TV in the village, she was so fond of it that she was thinking about buying one.
Her daughter is a factory manager, and her son-in-law and Representative Zhang have a very special relationship. It is not difficult for her to get an industrial ticket.
But after going home and discussing with Yao Yuan, Yao Yuan refused to buy it. Aunt Jiang also knew that Yao Yuan had concerns. After all, he did it himself, and the money was not as reliable as getting the public salary.
At that time, Yao Yuan's tangible assets had not been divested, and he had an underground foundry factory in the mining machine, which was indeed very concerned.
Now that he has successfully lost all these things, he is no longer so scared. As long as he doesn't buy a car villa, he is just richer than ordinary people, and he is still an ordinary person, and there is nothing to be scary about.
He gradually thought about these things in his mind before he dared to buy a motorcycle.
But I told Aunt Jiang that Aunt Jiang didn’t understand these issues about assets and he couldn’t explain them to her.
After hearing Aunt Jiang’s question, he nodded and said, “Mom, you are right. We are obviously more money than others. I’m afraid that people with ulterior motives will make us think, and the children and adults will not be safe. So, I won’t let you buy a TV.”
Aunt Jiang said, "But this motorcycle is more expensive than a TV. If you get two at once, how can you not know that we have money?"
Yao Yuan said, "I thought about this too. Let's not say that this thing was bought. If someone asks you, you will say it was given to me by my father's old subordinate and ask me to try riding it, not to mention the price. As long as you insist that this is the case, do they believe it or not?"
Aunt Jiang listened and thought for a while and said, "Well, this method is good. Anyway, your father and his subordinates are all high-ranking officials. Many memorial services were held that year, and everyone has seen them and knows them. Not to mention giving you a motorcycle, even if you give you a sedan, these people can do it!"
Kang Kang glanced at Yao Yuan and said, "You said it's really not easy for you to make this little money. How many lies do you have to make up this day? Not only do you fool your mother, but you also have to teach your mother to fool others. Are you tired? Why don't you be like Meimei and find a place to work honestly!"
Yao Yuan glared at Kang Kang and said, "When did I fool my mother? Kang Kang, don't talk nonsense. Today, I will give you a brief explanation. I usually keep half of the money I earn for myself. So mom, I have as much money as you have, right? "
Aunt Jiang lowered her voice and said, "What am I worrying about? Do you know how big silly you have? I have spent the money you gave me over the years, but I will tell you that I am richer than a 10,000 yuan household!"
As soon as he said this, not only Yao Yuan was surprised, but also Kang Kang and Meimei were surprised.
Kang Kang spoke first: "Oh my god, I think you spend a lot of money every month, why did you save so much money?"
Aunt Jiang made a gesture of silence against the war, and then said in a low voice: "I don't know what happened. I'm so stupid every month that I can spend money. Look at our food, which is much better than ordinary people. There is meat in every dish, and I eat dumplings twice a week. But by the end of the month, there are still a lot left.
Anyway, after saving up 500, I went to the bank to deposit it, but I didn’t count how many such passbooks were in my hand. Didn’t I want to buy a TV a while ago? I took out all the passbooks and calculated them. Oh my god, more than twenty passbooks are not the salary that Meimei gave me!”
Yao Yuan couldn't help but smile bitterly. In Aunt Jiang's eyes, there was meat every meal, and eating dumplings twice a week, which was considered a happy life.
Now that there is a free market, pork costs less than 50 cents per pound, how much meat can you eat every meal? Besides, although Aunt Jiang has meat in the dishes, there are only a few pieces, so is it considered meat?
Besides, having meat every meal is not a good life. A real good life is to try not to eat meat every meal.
Yao Yuan had long discovered that he and Kang Kang were both obese. As long as you eat a little better, you will have more meat and more oil, you will immediately gain weight.
Now, with less work and less opportunities to do physical work, there are not so many exercises. If Yao Yuan hadn't forced Kang Kang to diet, Kang Kang would have long since lost what he would have been.
If it weren't for this, the few slices of meat placed in Aunt Jiang's dishes would not be enough for Yaoyao to eat with Yuanyuan, Yao Yuan would have already expressed his opinions.
After thinking for a long time, Yao Yuan said to Aunt Jiang: "Mom, this is a good life. You don't have to eat meat every meal and eat dumplings twice a week.
We have to pay attention to balanced nutrition. For example, if you eat too much meat, people will easily gain weight and garbage will easily produce in their blood vessels. High blood pressure, diabetes, coronary heart disease, and other diseases are all related to eating too much greasy food.
We can eat meat every meal, especially pork. This is the meat with the worst nutritional value among all meats. We can eat more beef and mutton and less pork.”
Aunt Jiang said, "Beef and mutton are so expensive and so stinky. Why do you eat that thing? We are not a minority."
Yao Yuan said: "Then you don't eat beef and mutton, eat some fish, shrimp, crabs, right?"
Aunt Jiang said: "That thing is so fishy, it doesn't taste good without oil, it costs oil when it is made! Besides, those things are too expensive, who always eats that? Just try it during festivals and festivals."
Yao Yuan shook his head and said in another topic: "Let's not talk about eating anymore, let's talk about it. Mom, you are not old and are significantly younger than your peers. Buy some good clothes, dress yourself up beautifully, and then burn your hair. You will look young and energetic, and you will feel good, right?"
Aunt Jiang said, "Why do I dress so beautifully? I'm so angry that I'm just fine? I'm just fine to clean my body and I'm going to perm my head, and I won't let anyone poke my spine broken? Last time you were ignorant, so buy me a tweed coat. Is that the clothes I can wear? I gave it to you Sister Liu in the original price."
Kang Kang's face changed and asked, "Mom, how much do you pay Sister Liu?"
Aunt Jiang said, "Sixty, don't you tell me I bought it for sixty?"
Kang Kang said, "Oh my God, can you say this to me in the future? That's the hidden blue snowflakes, which cost more than 180 yuan!"
Aunt Jiang was startled and asked, "Why did you tell me that I bought it for 60 yuan?"
Kang Kang said, "I'm not afraid that you will not want to take it if you think it's expensive!"
Aunt Jiang scolded: "You naughty kid, I lie to your mother too! They are all taught by Dasha! I will tell you Dasha. You will teach you Dasha to lie in the future and see how I deal with you!"
Then he said, "I said I would give the coat to you Sister Liu, and I would be happy with her, just like I picked up a treasure! Why is this little Liu so inappropriate? She knew that she couldn't buy this clothes for 60 yuan, but she deliberately hid them from me! If not, I will go to her tomorrow and take them back!"
Kang Kang said, "What else do you want? You gave it to others. The price you mentioned is not meant to cheat you on yourself."
