Chapter 58: Delivering a rice cooker(1/2)
Except for Li Jianbin's visit to Liu Hongchang's house to pay New Year's greetings, which was a bit unexpected.
During the Chinese New Year at Liu Hongchang's house, no unexpected people or things happened.
The old Liu family has always lived in Ningzhou, and there are indeed many relatives and friends.
But those who came to visit the house were actually some relatives and friends with whom I had been in contact.
Liu Hongchang just lived in a bigger house, had better food and clothing, and was still within the understanding of the working class by his relatives and friends.
There are no relatives in Baganzi who can't live well, who suddenly come to Liu's house to fight against the autumn wind.
After all, this is already the mid-1980s, and life is much better than before, whether in the city or in the countryside.
As long as you are willing to work hard, your life will not be unbearable no matter what natural disasters or man-made disasters you encounter.
Except for their own laziness, there are very few people who can't really make a living.
Liu Hongchang's performance was not excessive, and he would not be thought of as a wealthy person.
After the annual holiday was over, the Lantern Festival was coming soon, and the second cafeteria was also preparing to prepare Lantern Festivals. It was during the Lantern Festival that Liu Hongchang met Li Jianbin again.
"Brother Hongchang, I moved out of home!"
After arriving at the Second Canteen, Li Jianbin spoke with some exhaustion and dejection.
Obviously, the showdown between Li Jianbin and his family did not go smoothly.
I don’t know that it was only after several fights and entanglements that I became frustrated and moved out of my home.
"Can't bear to let go?" Liu Hongchang poured a cup of tea: "Big brother will teach you an experience. Adult society is like this. Only by giving up can you get something. If you are reluctant to let go of your children, you will not be able to trap a wolf. If you are reluctant to let go of your wife, you will not be able to trap a gangster. If you want to get something, you must first get it.
lost."
"I've already moved out, and I can't bear to let go. It's not that I can't go back, but I just feel a little complicated." Li Jianbin shook his head and said.
"No, please stop feeling complicated. I think your face is quite complicated. Why is one part red and the other white?"
Liu Hongchang is very familiar with this kind of mark. He will be in this state after being slapped in the mouth.
I mentioned it on purpose, so that Li Jianbin could recall the pain and not indulge in sadness.
"If you want to move things and leave, you have to pay a price." Li Jianbin covered his face and laughed self-deprecatingly.
"Auntie, you have quite a bad temper, don't you?"
"You know a little about her temper."
"Yes, your mother is different from my mother after all. Such a big leader always has some temper."
No matter how angry Wang Cuilan was, it was just because she was angry, and she never said she was going to beat Liu Hongchang.
Li Jianbin's mother was unwilling. Although her rank was not high, she was a high-ranking figure in the unit and had a strong desire to control.
It is normal to have some tempers that do not tolerate opposition.
"Let me find you some ice to apply. Auntie's hand is really heavy. Fortunately, you work in an office. If you show your face outside like us, how can you meet people."
Liu Hongchang, out of humanitarianism, was willing to support Li Jianbin with some ice.
In fact, it’s not troublesome. The refrigerator in the canteen has limited capacity and it’s impossible to freeze ice cubes.
The weather is cold enough now. If you go outside and find a water tank or something, you can knock out a few pieces of ice.
"Forget it, I'll just come and sit for a while. When the garment factory gets off work, I'll go there."
"Go and wait for He Wenhui to get off work. You didn't learn this from me, right?"
Taking advantage of the garment factory to get off work and then waiting for He Wenhui at the door of the garment factory was a trick Liu Hongchang played a few years ago.
"Brother, don't tell me, I really learned from you. Didn't you marry Wen Hui back like this?"
"Okay...you can learn if you want to, but that's enough for you. You don't need to learn anymore."
Thinking that in this day and age, there are only a few tricks for chasing women, Liu Hongchang reluctantly agreed that Li Jianbin should learn from him in everything.
Li Jianbin decided to leave the Li family and after moving out, his life became much calmer.
Although the He family has been having a lot of troubles, all the problems can actually be attributed to the word money.
The He family has constant problems, mainly because He Wenhui's salary is too little and the He family has too much money to spend.
As a college student, Li Jianbin can earn 1,560 yuan a month after salary adjustment.
This amount of money will be enough to solve all the problems of the He family.
No matter it is Yu Qiuhua's old age or minor health problems.
Or does He Wenda have any excessive needs, such as new clothes or new shoes?
Or maybe He Wentao, who has been eating steamed buns for a long time, needs some money from his family to improve his life in the house.
After Li Jianbin became the grudge, the He family's problems never affected anyone else.
After I stopped thinking about robbing others all day long and borrowed money from my neighbors, my neighbors' attitude towards the He family became much better.
Liu Hongchang spent two years in No. 2 Canteen again, relaxed and happy.
If we say the 1960s and 1970s, there were still some hardships.
By the mid-1980s, conditions in all aspects were already very good.
The entertainment aspect has also kept up a lot and has been greatly improved compared to before.
The conditions in movie theaters, song and dance troupes, theaters and other places have become much more modern.
Most of the things from later generations are already available in this era.
It's just that things that everyone can have in the future are not very popular in this era.
But if you have money, there are already many things you can enjoy.
Except for the big gap in electronics, in other aspects, what you can enjoy is not much worse than it was in the future.
For Liu Hongchang, there is no rush at all when it comes to making money.
The most important thing is to enjoy life while you are young.
Every year, I spend a lot of time traveling with my whole family.
Traveling all over the country, although the various facilities in scenic spots may be a bit inferior in this era.
But scenery that has not been artificially destroyed can also make up for these shortcomings.
"Brother Hongchang, sister-in-law Maixiang, welcome, you are welcome to come and warm the house for me." Li Jianbin welcomed him warmly and politely.
After staying in the agency for less than two years, Li Jianbin was successfully assigned a house.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! The two-bedroom and one-living room is a new, newly completed building. Whether it is the environment or location, the various supporting facilities are also very good. It belongs to Ningzhou City in this era.
Houses of the highest quality.
In terms of allocating houses, Li Jianbin, as one of the few first-level college students in the city in this era, has quite an advantage.
"Why don't we come and take a look when you are moving? This is the gift we brought you, an imported rice cooker. It will be more convenient for you to eat at home alone."
Liu Hongchang took out the gift from the greenhouse.
Rice cookers are a relatively new thing in this era.
A hundred yuan is a small amount, and as a house-warming gift, it is definitely not stingy.
"I usually eat your cooking, big brother. Now, big brother, you and your sister-in-law will try my cooking today."
"Jianbin, can you still cook?"
Yang Maixiang didn't know much about Li Jianbin. She was somewhat surprised that Li Jianbin, a government cadre, could also cook.
"It's been a long time since I moved out, so I can do something simple."
Today, only Liu Hongchang and Yang Maixiang came. Naturally, they would not watch Li Jianbin enter the kitchen alone, so the two of them also followed.
"Food is the most important thing for the people, and it is for their own sake. It is right for Jianbin to learn better cooking skills."
Li Jianbin has moved out of the Li family for two years, although he has never married He Wenhui due to the opposition of the Li family.
But Li Jianbin was still very determined in wanting to marry He Wenhui.
As a woman who wants to marry He Wenhui, being able to cook is a basic skill.
After several years of training, He Wenhui has improved her cooking skills, but she cannot be said to have escaped the category of "pig food".
Car rollovers still happen from time to time.
The greatest pleasure for the six children living in Hejiayuan was to watch He Wenhui cook and cook.
I still have to admit that some people are really talented in terms of cooking skills.
He Wenhui didn't have much practice with the conditions of the He family.
It’s normal to not be able to improve your cooking skills.
"Yes, if you practice your cooking skills better, you won't suffer any consequences. Brother, sister-in-law, please stop doing it. Let me do it by myself. If there is anything I can't do well, brother can just give me some pointers."
Liu Hongchang and Yang Maixiang wanted to help Li Jianbin and wash their hands, but they were rejected by Li Jianbin.
