Rebirth in 1958: Getting rich starts from Nanluoguxiang

Dabao was also very busy today. He went to his master's house. When he got there, he saw that Dapeng had taken the train to Xijiang again and was not at home. However, thanks to Dabao's help last time, he and the conductor Li Yuming won a second-class individual merit. Tong Dapeng has been converted to a regular employee and his salary has increased to 37 yuan per month.

The master was happy, the master's wife was happy, and Dabao was also happy. This time, Dabao did not throw money at the master, but took 100 kilograms of rice, 100 kilograms of flour, and 30 kilograms of beef. Now food is more useful than money.

Of course, cucumbers, tomatoes, apples, and pears were also indispensable. No one could refuse this gift. The master's wife was crying and snotting. If it weren't for this little apprentice, her family would have starved to death.

Dabao couldn't stand the tears of his master's wife, so he stuffed a handful of candy into Xiao Dafang and Xiao Guihua's mouth and came out.

He was going to stop by Dashilan to buy some cakes and roast duck.

He has plenty of tickets now. Last time, Xiao Erduo gave him all the ticket bags. Dabao is also thinking about his two sworn brothers, but he forgot to ask Xiao Erduo where he lives last time. There is no other way, he can only get up early tomorrow and go to the pigeon market in Tianqiao.

Dabao came back at noon. He promised his sister to make noodles with soybean paste.

Now he basically doesn't eat pork anymore, and everything is in line with Zuo Mingyue's preferences. What is true love? In the little things in life,

Dabao returned to the courtyard with two roast ducks and a piece of beef in his bag. He didn't care whether to be high-profile or low-profile now. Whoever wanted to gossip could do so. It didn't matter now.

But this is only good for the next few years. Once the big storm comes, if you continue to eat and drink so ostentatiously, it will be bad. Someone will post big-character posters about you in a matter of minutes...

As soon as they entered the backyard, they saw a group of people sitting there. Jia Zhang was holding Xiaodang, Aunt Yan, and Jiang Jinsong's wife Wang Fang. Zuo Mingyue felt relieved when she saw Dabao coming back. She stood up holding Nuannuan.

"Why did you come back just now? My daughter has already cried twice."

Dabao greeted Jia Zhang and Aunt Yan, but ignored Wang Fang. He had a very bad impression of this sister-in-law.

Wang Fang stood up and said calmly, "Sixth Junior Brother."

Dabao was embarrassed, but he couldn't turn his head away from a woman, so he could only nod.

Dabao kissed Nuannuan's little face. Nuannuan stretched out her two little hands and cried out aggrievedly: "Daddy, Daddy..."

Dabao raised the things in his hands and said, "No, Daddy is going to cook. I'll hold you after the meal is ready."

Jia Zhang and Aunt Yan also stood up: "Oh, it's noon now, it's time to go home and cook."

Jia Zhang shouted, "Bang Geng, take your sister home for dinner!"

Bangteng, who was playing hopscotch in the yard, agreed.

Dabao quickly said, "Mrs. Jia, let Banggeng and Xiaodang eat here. They kept telling me yesterday that they wanted to eat the noodles I made."

Jia Zhang didn't bother to be polite with Dabao. She told Xiaodang to be obedient and left with Aunt Yan. Aunt Yan deliberately slowed down her pace. If Dabao was polite and tried to keep her, she could take advantage of the situation and have a free lunch here. Wow, there were two big roast ducks, sizzling with oil, and the oil paper was soaked through. The smell was so tempting.

Wang Fang didn't leave. She smiled sweetly and said, "Hey, you want to make noodles with soybean paste? I'm good at this, but you, an old man, don't know how to cook. Let me do it, sister-in-law."

Dabao's face darkened. "I just came back from my master's house. My master said that from now on, we have nothing to do with Jiang Jinsong. You should stop calling me sister-in-law. Since we are neighbors, our two families will never have any contact with each other. Please go back."

Wang Fang didn't expect Dabao to say such a decisive thing. She felt embarrassed to stay any longer and could only leave in disappointment.

Dabao walked towards the kitchen, and Zuo Mingyue followed curiously and asked, "What's going on? This so-called sister-in-law has already dragged those two aunts here, and she's talking about what happened in the past. She also asked what's going on with Nuannuan. It's so annoying. Fortunately, you're back."

Dabao took out the beef, cut off a piece and prepared to make meat sauce. While he was busy, he told the story of Jiang Jinsong and his wife going to the elder brother's house to collect debts.

Zuo Mingyue was so angry that she gnashed her teeth and repeated it three times that if Wang Fang came again, she would be driven out.

Dabao is a master at making noodles with soybean paste, especially beef with soybean paste, which is so fragrant. Just as the noodles were out of the pot, Lu Xiu'e came back.

There was a big table, Dabao was in charge of picking noodles, and the other children sat around waiting to eat noodles.

While feeding Xiao Dang, Lu Xiu'e said, "Baby, your grandma called. She's done with the work and wants you to send the three children over this afternoon."

It was Dabao's turn to finish his bowl. He looked at Nuannuan who was playing with her feet in the stroller.

"That's fine. Yueliang and I have to report to the police station tomorrow, so these three little ones are just right for sending to my grandma's house."

The three little ones are all sensible and don’t cry and make a fuss like other children.

"You guys report tomorrow? What about my granddaughter? How about I take a few days off?"

Zuo Mingyue gave Dabao a thumbs-up while eating. "These noodles with soybean paste are so delicious," she said, looking up.

"Mom, don't ask for leave. It's not a good thing to ask for leave all the time. Dabao and I have discussed bringing Nuannuan to the station. I am a household registration police officer now and I don't go out on field work. I have plenty of time to look after the child."

"Is that even possible? Other colleagues in the unit will probably have objections."

Dabao chuckled and threw a clove of garlic into his mouth: "If you have any objections, get out. This is my police station and I have the final say."

These words were said in a domineering manner. If it were an ordinary parent, they would have advised their son to be low-key and to unite with his comrades. Unfortunately, Lu Xiu'e was not an ordinary parent. She pointed at Dabao with her chopsticks.

"My son is just like me. He has to be tough. If you don't obey me, get out!"

Zuo Mingyue also nodded vigorously: "Yes!"

The children all shouted, and even Nuannuan kept waving her fists. If an outsider came in, he would definitely think this was a production mobilization meeting.

After lunch, the children all went to sleep, including Banggeng and Xiaodang. Dabao couldn't sleep because he promised to make a walker for Xiaodang yesterday, so he had to come out today.

He hid in the pavilion, polishing the rough edges of the car, thinking that he would go to Zhao Yuchu's house in the evening. Aunt Zhao should be giving birth soon. If nothing unexpected happened this time, Zhao Suchu, the most beautiful woman in Nanluoguxiang, would be born.

In the afternoon, I sent my two children, Wenwen and Niuniu, back to the military compound. I didn't stay there for long. I just chatted with my grandma for a few words and then came back. I also brought back more than ten feet of cloth and made a few sets of small summer clothes for Nuannuan at the garment shop on Gulou Street.

After the three younger siblings left, the yard suddenly became quiet. Dabao rocked the stroller leisurely, his daughter was still drowsy, Zuo Mingyue leaned against Dabao, and the two chatted casually. They really enjoyed this time alone.

If Wang Fang hadn't repeatedly poked her head in to look, this afternoon would have been wonderful.

Wang Fang once again peeked into the backyard. Zuo Mingyue couldn't help herself any longer and jumped up, rushing over and yelling, "What are you doing? Always peeking in like this?"

Wang Fang was shocked. How could she have imagined that the soft-spoken little girl in the morning would be like a tigress?

"I, I, I just want to say a few words to Sixth Junior Brother."

Dabao said lazily: "I told you, we don't have any relationship anymore. You can call me Comrade Qin, or just call me by my full name. We are not that familiar."

Wang Fang's face also looked a little unhappy, and she no longer spoke in a pretentious tone: "Qin Dabao, there is no need for you to talk like this. It was me who took the initiative to lend the money to Wei. Why can't I ask for the money back?"

So when he borrows money, he's the grandfather, but when he asks for money, he becomes the grandson? How can this be justified in this world?

These brothers are not blood brothers. Helping each other is a favor, and not helping is a duty. You masters and brothers, why didn't any of you give money to help the master's wife when she was seriously ill and in danger?

How come we made a mistake in borrowing money? To put it bluntly, if I hadn’t lent you the money, the grass on Master’s wife’s grave would be so tall now…”
