Knowing that Xu Nannan goes to night school to learn knowledge, the people in the cafeteria also take good care of her.

She works in a large canteen, a cook and a temporary worker. The wages of cooks are still different from the wages of other workers in the mine. There are only ten salary levels, and the minimum standard is 27 yuan and 5 jiao. The wage standard of Xu Nannan, a temporary worker, is not even the minimum standard, only 18 yuan.

With such a small salary, everyone would not treat her as the main force. And she was studying now, Master Da Du also said that she was winning glory for the cafeteria, and everyone spontaneously did more work to give Xu Nannan more time to study.

Now Xu Nannan has more free time. After the busiest time has passed, you can leave the cafeteria first. The other departments in their cafeteria, unlike other departments, have to be guarded all day long, as long as the work is finished.

Xu Nannan took advantage of this opportunity and went to the black market several times. Sold food several times. Frozen is to save more than two hundred yuan.

Xu Nannan was also worried that she would go to the black market more frequently. After saving more than two hundred yuan, she stopped going to the black market.

Of course, it was also because the money in her Taobao was getting less and less, which made her a little worried.

Since the last time she sold stamps, she has put another set in it. But this set has never been sold.

She thought she couldn't rely on stamps forever. And it's not the current stamps that really make money. A set of Blue Army Post has already come out, but she is not a member of the army, where can I buy it?

And even if it is a Blue Army Post, it seems to be very rare. If the quantity is too small, it may not be available.

It would be great if you traveled to ancient times, and you can sell antiques.

antique..

correct. Xu Nannan's eyes lit up and he almost patted his head. It seems that the four olds have not yet begun, and there are still many antiques that have not been damaged. If you can collect some antiques before they break the Four Olds...especially those that have been damaged during the Four Olds period in history, then her Taobao shop will really become a ‘Taobao Shop’.

And although she didn't know if Taobao shop corresponds to the time and space she used to stay in the future, she still felt a little bit in her heart that this Taobao shop was the only hub between her and the future world.

Maybe when she can use this Taobao shop to make money, she can also send the cultural relics that were originally submerged in the torrent of history to the future.

Xu Nannan was suddenly agitated. It seems that there is a feeling that some ideas are about to break through the ground. Is it not accidental that she was able to bring Taobao to this era?

Xu Nannan was not sure, and couldn't help having such an urge deep in his heart.

"It's no wonder that I traveled so miserably. The so-called heaven comes to the people, and I must first suffer from my mind, my muscles and bones, and my skin, and my body is empty... I really shoulder the great responsibility." Xu Nannan thought self-encouragingly.

Because of vacation, Zhu Fang went to Zhu Liping's house, and Wu Qing's house was the county seat, and went home. Jiang Lili was also nowhere to be seen, and only two sisters Xu Nannan were left in the dormitory, happy and quiet.

Xu Nannan was lying on the bed thinking about it, and couldn't help but smile for self-entertainment.

Xu Nannan was doing his homework under a kerosene lamp. Seeing Xu Nannan smiling, he wondered, "Sister, what are you laughing at?"

"It's okay, my sister is happy. Well, by the way, Xiaoman, how are you in school lately? You have to take the final exam. When you try to start the new year, sister will talk to them about upgrading and go back. At your age, at least I'm going to the second grade too."

Hearing Xu Nannan's question about studying, Xiao Man's small face instantly smiled, with a bright look in his eyes.

"Sister, what the teacher taught me, Uncle He told me before. I know how to do it. The teacher praised me for being smart and asked me how to learn so fast."

"Then what did you say?"

"I said I learned it in the village primary school. Sister, why can't I say that Uncle He taught it." Xu Xiaoman felt a little depressed when he said this. Obviously Uncle He taught, but why can't I say.

She wanted to let everyone know that Uncle He is a good teacher.

Xu Nannan touched her head, feeling a little dull.

Speaking of which, Uncle He has been a great help to their sisters and two sisters, and it is not an exaggeration to say that they have changed their destiny.

If it weren't for Uncle He's help, maybe she and Xiaoman are still messing around in the farm now, and they have to bother to wait for the chance to enter the city.

But as Xiaoman said, all this cannot be known. Otherwise, she, Xiaoman, and Uncle He will suffer.

"Xiaoman, during the Chinese New Year, let's go back to my hometown and spend the New Year with Uncle He." She gave her a peach and repayed her with Li. She couldn't bear to do anything for Uncle He, so she could do as much as she could.

It would be great if Uncle He could leave Xujiacun.

She is also willing to support Uncle He so that he can spend his old age in peace.

Thinking of what happened a few years later, Xu Nannan couldn't help but feel heavier. Even the collection of antiques before can not alleviate this mood.

The weather is getting colder and colder, and it is getting closer and closer to the end of the year.

Not only was the mine busy, but Xu Nannan's school was also preparing for the final exam.

Xu Nannan's major is a three-year program. According to reason, Xu Nannan can't complete the course. In a real sense, she didn't finish even a semester.

However, Xu Nannan's talent in class surprised the teachers. After she proposed that she wanted to graduate early, in order to allow her to study for two more years, the teacher even took a third-year exam paper for her to do. In the end, she actually won. Although she didn't get an excellent score, she already passed the passing line.

She was almost done learning, and it was indeed a waste of time for her to stay in school and waste time.

And Xu Nannan also said awe-inspiringly. "Now there are many comrades waiting to receive education. I hope to graduate early to make room for those in need. Without me, the teacher can teach one more student."

There is actually no logic in this. Teachers always say that there is no difference between one more student and one less student. But the child was pretty, and the teacher was very moved.

So under Xu Nannan's application, several teachers jointly recommended her to take the graduation exam in advance.

On the last day of the exam, Xu Nannan was in a relaxed mood, feeling that his burden was finally relieved.

Just waiting for the exam next year. Then it's buying a house.

Xu Nannan now has nearly 300 yuan in his hands. The money is definitely not enough to buy a house. Xu Nannan thought of Yu Donglai again. Last time, Yu Donglai agreed to consider what was going on, but he didn't know how it turned out. After so long, Xu Nannan almost didn't hold any hope. I even thought about reselling things in the neighboring city altogether.

But I haven't been there for almost a month after thinking about it. Xu Nannan was still a little worried about the lonely old couple.

Well, first go to Grandpa Yu's house, and then go to the recycle bin to see if you can pick up the leaks.

This time he knocked on the door, and Yu Donglai quickly opened the door.

Seeing Xu Nannan, he seemed a little happy. "It's been so long, I thought you wouldn't come if you didn't promise to help you last time."

Xu Nannan carried things and smiled and revealed the small dimples that had been exposed because of the growing plump cheeks. "Even if Grandpa Yu doesn't help me, I have to come. Grandma Yu still needs tonic to help me. I have to send it over."

Yu Donglai smiled, "Your grandma Yu is in good spirits today. If you are free, talk to her. No one has been walking around in the house for a long time."

They are lonely old people, and their only child is gone. Many people also feel unlucky at home and are unwilling to come. In addition, the old lady is not in good spirits, and the couple are too lazy to get out of the door.

Hearing what Yu Donglai said, Xu Nannan glanced at the pictures on the wall, and felt a little distressed for the old lady.

"Then I will come in and talk to Grandma Yu."

Grandma Yu is sitting on the bed and reading.

She is in poor health and seldom gets out of bed and walks around. Thanks to self-study of knowledge when she was young, she later studied as a literate person. Now that she is ill, she can read some books to pass the time.

Hearing the sound of the door opening, she put down her book, helped her reading glasses, and looked at Yu Donglai and Xu Nannan who entered the door.

"This child is here." Grandma Yu smiled.

After Yu Donglai told her about it last time, she always thought about this during this period of time. Thinking that after a hundred years later, she and Lao Yu will still be able to burn incense for her, Lao Yu, and his son Yu Hai. In the future, their family will be regarded as having incense.

After thinking about it a lot, this sentiment was slowly injected, and I felt cordial when I saw Xu Nannan this time. I even thought, it would be great if this was my granddaughter.

The old lady was sad and couldn't help holding Xu Nannan's hand to look up and down.

When Xu Nannan was thin before, he was a bit like Li Jing. Later, the body became more rounded, and after the cheeks began to plump up, they became less like Li Jing. In fact, the facial features are still somewhat similar, but the face looks fuller than Li Jing’s, and the spirit and energy are completely different. , Naturally it doesn't look like it. She is not very old, and after coming to the county seat, she eats and drinks honestly, and her skin has improved a lot. Dan Fengyan, oval face, smile and two small dimples.

"Looks very handsome." Grandma Yu smiled.

Xu Nannan was a little embarrassed. She felt that her appearance should be considered to be above average, and she was still a little bit short of'very handsome'. But the old man was so complimented, he couldn't help but chuckle in his heart.

Everyone wants to look good on their own.

The joy was over. She seemed to be in a good mood when she saw her grandma, and she enlightened, "Grandma Yu, you have to take good care of yourself. Every time Grandpa Yu buys things, you can be willing. Even for Grandpa Yu, you have to hurry up. Get up."

"My health is much better. In fact, it's nothing, but the spirit is a little bit worse. Just raise it." Grandma Yu smiled.

"You told Lao Yu last time that you wanted to buy a house?"

Xu Nannan was not surprised to hear that the old lady knew about this. The old couple guessed that they were the kind who said nothing.

"I want to buy a house. We don't have anything in our hometown, and the thatched house can't stop the cold winter wind. Instead of building a house, it's better to buy a house in the city. You can also work in the city in the future."

"You still have a rural household registration right now." Grandma Yu said.

"Well, but I am going to take the recruitment exam in the next year. As long as I pass the exam, I can transfer my hukou and buy a house."

Grandma Yu was a little disappointed. She had thought before, if the child couldn't help it, she would put forward the idea of ??adoptiveness.

At that time, the child can still be given their surname.

But now that the child has such an idea, she is not embarrassed to mention it.

"If you want to buy a house, you don't necessarily have to take money to buy it. Now it's not bad money, bad food. Just like the supplements you sold to me and Lao Yu are very rare, and there are fine grains that can be exchanged for a house."

Grandma Yu's words opened another door for Xu Nannan.

She really didn't understand this. Bartering things... well, her head is still stuck on the high prices in the future. I thought that the house in this county was in the city anyway, and there was no real estate at this time, and there was even less real estate. So even if the house price is not as expensive as before, it will not be the price of cabbage.

Now listening to my grandma say so, this can still be exchanged for things. If I knew she would just change things.

"Grandma Yu, how many things can be changed to a house."

Xu Nannan simply broke the casserole and asked to the end.

"It depends on what kind of house you want to live in."

Xu Nannan's heart immediately became hot, and his head began to think about those western-style bungalows...well, I can only think about it. She took Xiaoman to live in that kind of house, and she was going to be investigated in a few years. It's better to be honest with the gun.

"It's clean, it's enough for my sister and me." She knows that many families are living in the same room for three generations. There are several beds in one room.

I heard that this was the situation in Jiang Lili’s target home, so Jiang Lili wanted to get her sister-in-law out so that she could get married. Wu Qing's family seems to be even worse, and there is a sick grandma. She is so old that she doesn't even have her own bed. When she goes back, she squeezes into the same bed with her siblings.

So she only needs a house, and she and Xiaoman have a place of their own.

As for buying a big house, she is not in a hurry. If you are familiar with the future historical trend, you can always buy a big house to live in.

"You are not very demanding, but Lao Yu and I can arrange a place for you."

Grandma Yu smiled slightly, then glanced at Yu Donglai who was sitting on the side of the bed.

Yu Donglai stood up and said, "I will show you the house first."

Xu Nannan was stunned, "You will arrange a house for me?" She was not dreaming, she didn't expect Yu Donglai to help her here, but she didn't expect that they would not only help, but also help thoroughly.

Grandma Yu said, "You can take a look at your own house before talking about it."

While speaking, Yu Donglai had already walked out with the key. Only then did Xu Nannan react, thanked Grandma Yu, and immediately followed.

The house is not far from the house Yu Donglai now lives in.

It was bought when the couple was young. At that time, the son was also old, and he was planning to live with him by marrying a wife. Grandma Yu was worried that she would become old and verbose in the future, which would make her daughter-in-law dislike it, so she simply prepared this house and let the young couple spend time alone.

Of course, she did not expect at that time that she would never have a daughter-in-law in this life.

The house is a bungalow, but there is a small courtyard. There is even a well in the yard. From the appearance of this house, it has been some years old. But the old building is the old building, it's strong.

Xu Nannan used to see many century-old houses in the news. They were built during the Republic of China or the late Qing Dynasty. They will stand tall in the 21st century. Later, the old city was forcibly demolished after the reconstruction of the old city.

At that time, Xu Nannan admired the quality of the old buildings.

Looking at the old house now, she touched the courtyard wall with curiosity. Well, it's strong enough.

"Go and see the house." Yu Donglai saw her childishly touching the courtyard wall, feeling that she was really a child.

Xu Nannan hurriedly followed Yu Donglai to the house.

When they bought the house, Yu Donglai and the others planned to live in one room for their son and one for their grandson. So this house has two rooms with a small living room in between. The kitchen is in the yard. On the whole, the area of ??the house is small, and the yard is only a dozen square meters. But let alone living with two people, living in a family is definitely more than enough.

What a good house.

Xu Nannan was warm in his heart.

Yu Donglai also looked at the house in a melancholy manner. Over the years, he came to clean up the house when it was empty. For nothing else, I don't want to watch the house belonging to my son get damaged. As for selling, he never thought about it. He and his wife are both workers, and they have also mixed up with a retired cadre in this life, and there are only two of them in the family, so they can't eat much. Even when there was a famine, neither he nor his wife were affected. At most, he would eat one less meal a day and tighten his belt. Not to sell the house yet.

The reason why I am planning to live with the child this time is to let the child remember this feeling in the future, and to burn incense for his family during the Qingming period. Secondly, he feels that the health of himself and his wife are getting worse and worse. I don't know that there are still a few years left. Rather than being vacant in this way and later being taken back by the government, they don’t know who they will be assigned to live with. They might as well choose a suitable person to live with.

"Grandpa Yu, do we really live in such a good house?" Xu Nannan didn't care about believing in his good fortune.

"If you like it, I'll talk to your grandma Yu when I go back. She also agrees."

"How much?" Xu Nannan started to settle the accounts, afraid that the cash would not be enough. "Grandma Yu said that I can use things to reach the house, can I use things to reach the house?"

"We don't need money, so let's use your grandma's supplements. Don't go to other people to sell things. You are still young. If you can't do this thing, it's best not to do it." Yu Donglai sincerely persuaded. .

Xu Nannan immediately said readily, "I will pack Grandma Yu's supplements in the future, and I will take care of enough."

After speaking, she remembered the origin of this house again, and she bowed to Yu Donglai, "Grandpa Yu, don't worry, I must take good care of this house."

This is how the house matters are settled, but the transfer of the ownership will have to wait for Xu Nannan to be admitted to the mine as a formal worker in the first year of the year.

Didn't Yu Donglao and Grandma Yu tell them about letting the two children burn incense for them in the future?

"Nan Nan is not very young, so don't be scared. Let's wait for a while." Grandma Yu comforted herself, and at the same time comforted Yu Donglai.

This time, the house was given. Xu Nannan's heart was like setting off fireworks, a flower blooming suddenly. Colorful.

Almost bouncing around, humming a little song all the way to the waste recycling station.

At this time, the country is very scarce of materials, whether it is agriculture or industry, there are not many waste products. Therefore, there are really not many items in the waste recycling station, and most of them are things that are really useless and cannot be repaired. There are also some calligraphy and painting books that can't tell the difference between the famous and the famous.

Although Xu Nannan used to sell second-hand goods, what he can sell is not an antique in the true sense. He is really unclear about distinguishing calligraphy and painting.

He simply took all the calligraphy and painting books that were suspected of being ancient cultural relics.

The old man in the recycle bin almost thought he had met a fool when he saw that the child took these useless things all at once.

"Little comrade, these things are to be recycled and destroyed. Why are you buying this?"

Xu Nannan smiled honestly, "It's not easy to light the coal stove at home. Go back and use that point as an introduction."

Believe it or not, I believe it myself anyway.

When the old man heard that he was doing this, he almost didn't say a word, why don't you say that it was used for wiping your butt. The old man felt that he was a civilized person in the new society, so he naturally didn't dare to really say such swear words as a hooligan.

But looking at the child’s honesty, the old man still urged, “Little comrade, if you take it back to live, it’s okay. Don’t leave it at home. These were taken by those scholars in the county before. , Said it was handed down by the ancestors, so I dare not put it at home. Don't be foolish."

Xu Nannan turned a page of an ancient book, "Uncle, look at this word, it knows me, I don’t know it yet. I don’t really have anything to do except light a fire. Otherwise, I can’t eat or drink, I’ll take it back. What are you doing at home."

"That said, yes, I'll tie it up with a string for you. You give fifty cents, and you can carry it all."

It was only fifty cents at the first hearing, and Xu Nannan's heart was overwhelmed.

This pile of things, even if they are not antiques, can be regarded as ordinary collectibles. Put it in the Taobao store first, if you can't sell it later, you won't lose money if you keep it.

Xu Nannan didn't dare to blatantly bring it back to the mine, so he could only find a place where no one saw it, and threw it into the Taobao store, where he didn't even set the price, and just hung it there. Then he went directly back to the mine.

"Nannan, you can be regarded as coming back."

As soon as he arrived at the mine, a man walked out of the guard room inside. Xu Nannan saw that it was Xu Gui, Song Guihua's man.

"Uncle Gui." Xu Nannan shouted in surprise.

The Guardian soldiers also came out from inside. Asked, "Nannan, this person said that you are from Xujiacun, do you know him?"

"Uncle Wei, this is my uncle who took special care of me and Xiaoman when I was in Xujiacun. Xiaoman and I have registered permanent residences at their home." Xu Nannan finished with a smile and looked at Xu Gui again, "Uncle Gui, you What's wrong. How is Aunt Osmanthus? And Grandma Chen, wood and stone, they are all okay."

"Everything is good." Xu Gui said repeatedly, walked into the guard room, and came over with a snakeskin bag.

"This time, I made a special trip to send something to you and Xiao Man. Guess what?"

There doesn't seem to be much in the bag, and Xu Nannan really can't guess what can make Xu Gui take a trip.

"You forgot, what did you do on the farm back then?"

"Ah, it's pork." Xu Nannan looked at the bag Xu Gui was carrying in surprise.

"Guess right," Xu Gui said with a smile.

Because the New Year is coming, there are still a few boars left after the village boars are handed in. Xu Gensheng waved his hand. Instead of waiting for the hungry and thin, it is better to slaughter the meat earlier.

The scene of dividing the meat is no less than dividing the grain.

Pigs are full of treasures, pig blood, pig bones, pig intestines, pork... but they are all meat. For Xujia villagers who can't eat a piece of meat all year round, dividing meat is more worth looking forward to than the New Year.

There are so many people in the village that there are only a few catties of meat that can be allocated to each household.

Although Xu Nannan is now working as a temporary worker in the city, she was the breeder who raised these pigs at the beginning, and she has worked hard, so Xu Gensheng said that when Xu Nannan divided a few catties of meat, the villagers were a little reluctant, but It was not easy to say unwillingly. So these few catties of meat became the private property of Xu Nannan sisters.

Because Xu Nannan's household registration was in Song Guihua's house, Song Guihua kept these few pounds of meat for the two children.

"Your aunt originally wanted to make bacon with salt for you, but before she had time to make it, the family in the back room came to make a fuss and wanted to take the meat away. Your aunt was worried that she would not be able to keep it at that time, so let me I sent it straight to the city. There are fat and thin ones, thin dumplings to eat, or bacon. For fat ones, you have to fry the lard earlier. As your aunt said, lard is more nutritious than vegetable oil, just right. Nourish your body."

Xu Nannan looked at the meat bag and sucked his sour nose.

It turns out that even if she and Xiao Man left Xujia Village, the villagers would not treat them badly, nor would they forget their share. Aunt Osmanthus also asked your uncle to send it all the way.

This is all affection, it is worthy of the affection between her and Xiao Manji for a lifetime.

Wiping the corner of his eyes, Xu Nannan hurriedly said, "My uncle, I will take you to dinner first and ask about family affairs by the way. Both Xiaoman and I are thinking about Xujiacun and everyone."

Xu Gui was not willing to go to dinner. He needed food stamps for food in the city, and the price was not cheap. He brought his own dry food, so he could deal with it by eating while walking on the road.

"Or find a place to sit, I'll talk to you. I'll go back after I'm finished."

Xu Nannan said, "Uncle Gui, I work in the cafeteria now. It's not bad to eat. Let me take you to the mine cafeteria today. The craftsmanship of our cafeteria master is good."

Seeing Xu Gui hesitating, she said again, "Uncle Gui, just go. Just a meal, nothing. If you just go back like this, I will have the face to go back to Xujiacun in the future."

When everything was said, Xu Gui gritted his teeth. Thinking about eating less later, he brought dry food and didn't eat enough anyway. Eat on the road.

After greeting the Wei Guobing, Xu Nannan led Xu Gui into the mine and went to the canteen.

The Wei Guobing watched the two go away, thinking about what they had just said, and couldn't help shaking his head. Look at people outsiders who treat Nan Nan so well. In comparison, Director Xu's father is far behind.

At this time, someone from Xu's family brought pork.

This time the meat delivery person is Liu Qiao and his wife.

Since Zhang Cuiqin's accident, the old lady has entrusted Liu Qiao with more and more important tasks. This time, Zhang Cuiqin couldn't enter the city, so he couldn't let Xu Jianhai come over. He simply sent his three honest son Xu Jianping to the city with his third wife Liu Qiao.

The standards for delivering meat this time are also limited. The three children of Xu Ling, Xu Lei, and Xu Long were all divided into half a catty. Xu Meizi was fourteen years old and had no work, only three or two. But neither Li Jing nor Xu Hong.

"When we came out, Mom said, it's the one who deserves it. Those who didn't get it, don't be greedy. The Wuya's share belongs to the public." Liu Qiao earnestly read out the "Yizhi" of the old Xu family queen mother. ".
