51, gossip

As the Chinese New Year approaches, the docks in Shanghai are still very lively. After all, many people plan to make a final profit before the New Year.

Now the boat is next to the boat, and some thick woods made of two or three centimeters wide become bridges for the ship to communicate with the land. People carrying the cargo are walking back and forth. Because of their heavy weight, they look shaky when they walk in the middle, which makes the bystanders feel relieved.

In the past two years, because I made a lot of money when I first drove the boat, more and more people were spending money to buy a boat. Nowadays, there are many ships full of goods but have not yet found the buyer to dock on the shore. People on the boat directly fetch water from the river to cook and wash, and they always leave alone at the bow of the boat waiting for people who need goods to come and buy it.

Zhu Yunxuan looked at the workers who didn't take the narrow pedals into his eyes for a while. When he turned around, he saw many children about the same age or younger as him. These children had a rope tied around their waists, probably because they were afraid that they would fall into the river.

Compared with these children, even the poor days he lived in his previous life were good days.

Today they have been wandering around the dock for a day, met many people, and saw a lot of things. I have to say that compared with the bustling Shanghai, it is so dirty and messy that it is unattractive.

"Hey, brother, do you want to buy a watch?" Suddenly, a sneaky person stopped Jiang Yong and asked in a low voice.

Before Jiang Yong could speak, the other party took out a watch from his arms carefully: "This watch is not from the right way, but it is definitely a good thing. I have to buy a few thousand yuan in the mall, and I will sell it to you for 100 yuan!"

"I don't want it." Jiang Yong directly refused. He had no good impression of the person selling the stolen goods.

"Do you don't want a watch? Do you want that gold necklace? It's me...hehe." The man took out another lady's necklace: "Four hundred yuan, you'll take it away!"

"Is this fake?" Sun Ling, who was leaning on a crutch, spoke with a smile. He had difficulty in legs and feet, but he could still walk with two crutches.

The person who sold them "stolen goods" changed his expression and squeezed out a smile: "Brothers, let it go..." As soon as he finished speaking, he ran away.

"Aren't those things stolen?" Jiang Yong asked.

"Is there such a thief? He is clearly a liar," Sun Ling said, "That man looks like I stolen this thing, and he just wants to use people's greed for small gains to cheat money."

"Hey! Where is the person who talked to you just now?" Suddenly, a long and thin man with a short beard above his lips ran over.

"He ran away." Jiang Yong spoke.

"Let him run away... When someone told me, I caught up. Didn't you buy his stuff?"

"We didn't buy it, did you buy it?" Sun Ling asked.

"It wasn't me who bought it, it was someone who drove the boat with me. He bought a pair of high-end leather shoes and a watch that the other party said they were stolen from the door of the house of those who came in and wanted to change their shoes. As a result, the leather shoes were made of paper and the watch broke after two days of use." The man in his thirties spoke.

"There are many scammers now, and it is undesirable to be greedy for small gains," Sun Ling said, "Are you going to go shopping in the city?" Although the clothes this young man looked very rustic to them, they were obviously very clean. If he planned to work, it would be a pity if he got dirty.

"Well, I have to buy some vegetables and cook, and I also have to buy some candy and other things. It's the Chinese New Year." The man spoke.

"We are going to the vegetable market, let's go together." Sun Ling smiled and spoke, and then kept talking to the other party along the way.

On the surface, the man couldn't tell that he hadn't come, but he turned out to be a chattering man. He took eggs to Shanghai for food coupons more than ten years ago and bought cheap rice in Shanghai to sell them back to his hometown. Now he had a lot of things he encountered when he was driving the boat.

"You don't know that there was another foreigner's boat yesterday. The boat was so high. When we saw the foreigners happy, we waved at them, and they threw a pack of cigarettes down. Later, many people squeezed into the boat over there and waved their hats together. Later, they threw down a lot of cans and cigarettes, and also very well-packaged biscuits..."

"Really? Isn't it good to do this?" Sun Ling asked, his face changed. Such things give people the feeling that foreigners are teasing them... But what can he say to a group of people who are struggling to make a living?

"Yes, so later the police on the dock came over and asked us to return everything. We were all searched. However, I had already opened a can and ate it. It contained sweet little fish, and the cans that were filled with beans, which didn't taste good at all... and those cigarettes were very choking, and we couldn't get used to it," the man said of the cigarette, and seemed to remember this, took out a cigarette and lit it. "The one on the same boat as me was a smart person. He hid a bag of biscuits early and said he wanted to take it back for his mother-in-law to eat."

The man bought some fat meat and some cheap snail vegetables and went back. Sun Ling took Zhu Yunxuan and others to a noodle shop next to the vegetable market to eat noodles.

The noodle soup has been cooked a long time ago. If you want to eat noodles, the store will put some noodles in the noodle soup when the noodles are cooked, and then there is a poached egg chicken legs next to it. You can add whatever you want to eat. Each one has a price.

I have to say that the noodles taste really not very good. I guess the price is because of the cheapness, so it is quite lively. Many people are eating poached egg noodles, and there is a big bowl for only two yuan.

In addition to the dock, they went to many places in a few days, and the Oriental Pearl Tower is naturally one of them. It can be seen that Sun Ling also hopes that they can see the various aspects of life.

On the 28th day of the second lunar month, Zhu Yunxuan followed Sun Ling and Jiang Yong home. Originally, Zheng Xiaoqing and his family were leaving Sun Ling to celebrate the New Year in Shanghai, but in the end, Sun Ling refused.

The Chinese New Year is very lively. Everyone in the Zhu family is very happy during the Chinese New Year this year. Zhu Chengcai and his wife have another son and have made a lot of money. The reasons for Zhu Chengcheng and his wife are similar.

I have to say that Zhu Chenggong is really a person who can endure hardships. He is not afraid of hardship or fatigue. Although he sells meat inexpensively, it is large in quantity, so he makes a lot of money. He is also flexible in mind. He takes a meat grinder to help others grind meat to deliver meat to the bun shop, and sets up two canteens. In addition, he usually asks him to kill pigs and sheep, and he will not refuse. He earns thirty or forty every day. Now it’s almost the Chinese New Year, he gets up early and sells four or five pigs every day, and earns fifty or sixty every day.

In Zhu Yunxuan's opinion, although you make a lot of money like this, you can easily damage your body - Zhu Chenggong has very little rest time these days... But he can't persuade him. If he really persuades him, he may still feel that they are jealous of his family's income.

Zhu Chenggong was often too busy, so Feng Xian would go to the town to help every morning, helping him deliver meat to the bun shop and minced pork ribs and minced meat to the restaurant. That is, when she went, Zhu Chenggong could have free time to drink water and eat something.

When Feng Xian went to the town to help, he would usually send Zhu Dongyue to his parents' home first. Later, Zhu Dongyue became four or five months old, and sometimes she would ask Wang Fenger to help watch.

Zhu Yunxuan was not at home in the morning before, so naturally he wouldn't know how Wang Feng'er took care of the children. Now it was the morning when he came home. He saw Zhu Dongyue who was already asleep in a large red plastic basin and Wang Feng'er who was placing the soles of his shoes next to him.

"Grandma, why don't you carry your sister to the bed?" Zhu Yunxuan asked. He also has a large washbasin in his family. Jiang Yuexiu usually uses it when washing the bed sheets and quilts.

"She wakes up when she moves!" Wang Feng'er spoke angrily. He originally liked Zhu Yunxuan very much, but since Jiang Yuexiu gave birth to a baby, she has not been very friendly to Zhu Yunxuan.

"Yunxuan!" Jiang Yuexiu came out holding Zhu Yunjin, and was used to the situation in front of her. Wang Feng'er's current behavior is much better than before, letting her child cry and put her in the car and stuffed her around her.

"Mom! Xiao Jin!" Zhu Yunxuan saw his younger brother and hurriedly reached out to hug him. At his age, Jiang Yuexiu originally did not let him hug the child, but he kept hugging him very steadily, and Jiang Yuexiu gradually got used to it.

"Xiao Jin is heavy again!" Zhu Yunxuan hugged his younger brother and spoke with a smile. He followed Jiang Yong to exercise his body, and his arm strength was good.

"That's right, people say that this child is fat everywhere." The child is cute when he is fat, and Jiang Yuexiu is still very proud of this.

On the New Year's Eve, when he saw others eating, he opened his mouth and asked for it. Zhu Yunjin, who had a very longing expression, finally took the first bite of rice in his life. Then he swallowed it directly. Jiang Yuexiu was so scared that she complained about Zhu Chengcai, and the fried rice noodles she prepared finally came in handy.

For babies who are five or six months old, should they eat some rice? In addition, eating eggs is also good... Zhu Yunxuan was thinking about his younger brother's recipe, while Zhu Chengcai drank some wine with a rare opportunity, and the family was extremely harmonious.

After the Chinese New Year, it was time to visit relatives again. Jiang Yuexiu's family had nothing to do with clothes, so naturally she went out wearing new clothes every day. That's not all. She also gave Jiang Cheng's wife, her sister and Feng Xian.

Originally, who wouldn't dress up during the Chinese New Year? Even the most rustic girls would buy a few new clothes. It's a good thing for Jiang Yuexiu to wear new clothes, but there are always some people who like to gossip and talk nonsense...

On the fifth day of the Lunar New Year, Lu Lei's mother and Lu Lei suddenly came to the door in the afternoon.

Lu Lei is now in the first grade like Zhu Qiuyue. The previous few times Zhu Yunxuan met him, but found that he had only a slight understanding of pinyin, which was worse than the "silly retarded" in their class before, which was really helpless.

"Oh! Yunxuan is finally at home! Even if this child is smart, he can jump to the fourth grade." Lu Lei's mother spoke Mandarin with a strong accent. Although she has been here for more than ten years, she still hasn't learned the dialect here. However, Jiang Yuexiu has spoken Mandarin very smoothly now.

"It's you," Jiang Yuexiu came out with a bowl of cooked water chestnuts and hurriedly greeted her, "Do you want sugar water chestnuts to eat?"

"Oh, your family has planted water chestnuts this year?" After grabbing it with his hands, Lu Lei's mother asked.

"No, there are so many things this year, so how can I care about this?" Jiang Yuexiu smiled and said.

"Yes, your family is rich now... Look at you, you dressed more beautifully than a big girl... By the way, Yuexiu, someone outside said to you..." She looked entangled.

When Zhu Yunxuan saw her, he knew that she was afraid she couldn't say anything good. Sure enough, after Jiang Yuexiu asked, the other party stammered: "Many people in our factory said that you had an affair with the boss, saying that if it weren't for you two... how could the boss treat you so well? He didn't say that he was the supervisor at the beginning, but now you have a child and don't go to work and you will be paid..."

After just a few words, Jiang Yuexiu's face became extremely ugly.

"Look, you've worn so well these days, all the clothes in the factory are more than 100 yuan each... Some people say that you didn't plan to have a baby before, but now you have paid so many fines and have to have a baby. Could this child be actually..." This woman didn't know if she was really stupid or just to come here to mock Jiang Yuexiu, and she told all the rumors outside truthfully.

Jiang Yue was so delicate that she trembled. Li Yue was indeed very nice to them, but that was because they had a good relationship with each other, why did others think that way?

Lu Lei's mother probably saw something was wrong, so she pulled Lu Lei and left, but Jiang Yuexiu turned around and walked in.

"Mom, they are talking nonsense!" Zhu Yunxuan hurriedly caught up with his mother, but saw that Jiang Yuexiu's eyes were red. Jiang Yuexiu ignored her son and went upstairs and into the room. When she saw Zhu Chengcai lying on the bed, tears had already fallen.

"Axiu, what's wrong with you?" Zhu Chengcai asked in surprise. Unfortunately, Zhu Yunjin was sleeping on him at this time. He wanted to stand up but couldn't stand up.

"You don't know what they say outside... I'm saying it! Recently, there have been many people talking in groups, but no one speaks when I pass by!" Jiang Yue was so delicate that she was said in a place like this in the countryside. She may be pointed at by others when she goes out in the future!

"What did you say?" Zhu Chengcai was very surprised. Even though there were already many rumors outside, how could anyone tell him? So he didn't know about this at all.

Jiang Yuexiu didn't say anything. What should she say about this? Now she just feels that she has lost all her face!

Zhu Yunxuan stayed aside carefully, rumors were more powerful than tigers. If he hadn't been afraid of rumors, his parents wouldn't have really broken up with him...

And now, Lu Lei's mother actually said in front of him: "Dad, Lu Lei's mother came just now. She said that someone outside said that his younger brother was Uncle Li's child." After saying this, Zhu Yunxuan's face became ugly.

He was not afraid that Zhu Chengcai would doubt anything. After all, when he was at work, Li Yue asked Zhu Chengcai and Jiang Yuexiu to be in the same office. Later, Jiang Yuexiu went home to give birth. If anything, Li Yue only looked for Zhu Chengcai... What's more, if a rich man like Li Yue really wants to find Jiang Yuexiu who looks like an average person in his thirties, would he be able to find Jiang Yuexiu who is in his thirties?

"Talking nonsense!" Zhu Chengcai jumped out of the bed with anger. His youngest son's mouth was like his nose, his eyes were like him... Why did he become someone else's child?

"Wow!" Although Zhu Chengcai was excited, he still remembered holding his youngest son lying on him, for Zhu Yunjin, the place where he originally lying on his lie is now violently shaking, so he is of course not happy.

Seeing his son crying, Zhu Chengcai hurriedly started to coax him.

After coaxing the child, Jiang Yuexiu's mood became calmer. After all, this was fake and everyone in her family knew it. But what should they do now? The family discussed for a while, but finally looked at each other, but found that they had no choice.

There is no way to explain things like rumors. The more they explain, the more they may doubt others may...

"I won't wear those clothes anymore!" Jiang Yuexiu spoke angrily. She couldn't help but hate Lu Lei's mother now - both children are there, so she just talks nonsense! Thinking of what happened before, Jiang Yuexiu felt that she could not face her eldest son!

"Mom, there will be people who say you feel guilty..." Zhu Yunxuan hesitated. Many people knew about him at the beginning. The school and company said that he had more people, and he finally chose to live his own life regardless of others' opinions.

If you really want to argue with others, I'm afraid you can't argue.

Jiang Yuexiu was very angry and wanted to get angry with her son, but when she saw Zhu Yunxuan's appearance, she finally suppressed her anger. This child was only nine years old after a year of dying. It is rare to be so smart. What does this matter have to do with him? "What else can I do?"

"Don't worry about them, what will happen if you can only talk about other people's gossip? When our factory starts, see what else they can say!" Zhu Chengcai gritted his teeth while shaking his son in his arms.

"Will they say that it is Li Yue's credit for us to open a factory?" Jiang Yuexiu thought a little more and asked.

The family was silent again.

There have always been many rumors in the village. For example, the hostess who is separated from them by four or five families is said to be a secret prostitute. Many people say that she costs 30 yuan at a time. For example, the beautiful girl in their village who was ruined after getting engaged and went home on a human resources tricycle is said to have been with a big shot... They have heard of a lot of such things, and they also know that some are real and some are fake, but they never expected that such things would fall on themselves.

Because of this reason, when they visited relatives later, they always felt something was wrong. And a few days later, Zhu Chengcai heard about this from a friend of his - his friend patted his shoulder and asked him to take care of his wife better.

What is this? Jiang Yuexiu has been with him, and now she doesn’t take the drawings at home without taking them out! What else do you want her to do?

Zhu Chengcai fought with his friends, but his friendship was gone. At the same time, more people seemed to be convinced that this was true.

Just at this time, Li Yue found Zhu Chengcai and wanted to give Jiang Yuexiu 5% of the shares of the clothing factory.

"Boss? How can this be done?" Li Yue gave a red envelope during the Chinese New Year, and now he actually gave shares? Zhu Chengcai was really frightened. When he thought of the rumors, he felt that he couldn't even clear the situation even if he jumped into the Yellow River.

"It's nothing. If it weren't for Jiang Yuexiu's design drawings, the clothing factory wouldn't have been so big now. I would like to thank you." Li Yue smiled. Since he had already made a decision, even if he felt sorry for him, he had to endure it.

"boss……"

"Why are you unfamiliar? It's okay, isn't there a saying that technology invests? You are investing in technology now." Li Yue didn't see Zhu Chengcai's abnormality, and just thought the other party was too happy and frightened. Well, he had such a time at the beginning.

Do you want to tell a man that something was wrong with you and my wife? Zhu Chengcai finally said nothing, and inexplicably got the shares that fell from the sky.

After returning home, he discussed with Jiang Yuexiu for a long time, but finally decided to think that rumors did not exist - they are now people who have seen the world, and no longer care about the opinions of the people around them as they did before. If they really can't live here, they can't go to a big city to buy a house and be a city owner!
