Siheyuan: Walking the Path of Qin Huairu

Chapter 58: Encountering the Future Boss at the Train Station

Before leaving, Aunt Xu put some green beans, soybeans, and dried mushrooms in her backpack, explaining, "We are from the countryside, and we don't have much to give away. Don't despise these little things."

The family warmly sent her to the entrance of the alley. At the entrance of the alley, Xu Huizhen saw Xu Jianshe's mother, her grandmother in her previous life. This person never gave her a trace of the kindness of an elder. In her memory, only the children of the eldest wife could act like a spoiled child in front of him. Forget it, don't bother with her, she is not a long-lived person, she only has a few years left.

Xu Jianan ran over and stuffed two sweet potatoes into her hands, saying, "Take these and eat them on the way, sister."

Xu Huizhen touched his head, took out a handful of candy from her pocket and stuffed it into his pocket, whispering, "Thank you, I'll keep these candies for you to eat slowly."

She rode her bicycle to the train station, found a secluded spot, put her bicycle away, and waited for the train with her child in her arms and a backpack on her back.

She had made a plan in advance. The train to Tianjin arrived at 11 o'clock. She arrived a little early. She just strolled outside to see the scenery. Anping County was a small station. Apart from the platform, there were a few bungalows. It was really simple and shabby.

Suddenly, a child of about seven or eight years old tugged at her clothes, stared at her and asked, "Do you want a turtle?" It sounded so awkward, like an insult. She looked down and saw the boy's innocent eyes.

He was holding a bucket with a turtle in it. She knew the kid had no ill intentions and just wanted to sell the turtle. How could a kid this old be able to do business? She just wanted to tease the kid.

Xu Huizhen: "How much is your turtle?"

Little boy: "My turtle is 2 yuan."

Xu Huizhen couldn't help but burst out laughing. The little boy didn't understand why and thought Xu Huizhen thought he was asking too much, so he said embarrassedly: "My mother is sick and needs money for medical treatment. If you think it's too expensive, I'll give you a bunch of dried mushrooms."

This kid is quite clever, and a little cunning, but he knows all the sales techniques that adults use.

Xu Huizhen asked: "What's your name? Which village are you from?"

The child said, "I'm from Tangjiabo, my name is Tang Peilin." Tang Peilin, why does this name sound familiar? I remembered that Tang Peilin worked in real estate development in the future, broke out of the county, went to the provincial capital, and finally became a big boss in the construction industry.

In his previous life, he married a woman from Xujiawan, but she looked a bit like Zhu Bajie's second aunt. There was nothing he could do. Tang Peilin's mother was a hero. She gave birth to eight sons and one daughter. The family was so poor that it was good enough for him to marry a woman.

This is a capable man. He was a bricklayer at the beginning, building houses for others together with the people in the village. After the reform and opening up, he started from a small construction team and made rapid progress all the way to become a leader in the real estate industry.

After he became successful, everyone said that his wife was not worthy of him and that they were not a good match. However, Tang Peilin did not divorce. He said, "My wife didn't despise my poor family back then, and I don't despise her ugliness now." He is also a responsible and responsible person.

Xu Huizhen curiously asked the future boss: "Why don't you go to school at your age?"

Tang Peilin lowered his head and said, "I have many brothers and no money to go to school." Huh? If you don't go to school, you are illiterate? How did Tang Peilin become a big boss in his previous life?

Xu Huizhen decided to help the future boss, maybe he could give her a house he built in the future. So she said, "Okay, I'll buy this cuckold."

Tang Peilin was so happy, "Wait a minute, I'll go get some dried mushrooms from my dad." Then he turned and ran. He didn't forget to take his turtle away before he left. Was he worried that someone would take his turtle away before he paid? What a little cunning man!

Xu Huizhen followed him and found Tang Peilin's father. He was squatting on the side of the road with a bunch of dried mushrooms and a few eggs in front of him. This train station was not big, and there were not many out-of-town passengers. It was probably that the father and son were doing some small business here to sell agricultural products, and no one cared.

When Father Tang heard his son say that the turtle had been sold, he was also very excited. After the money was exchanged and the goods were delivered, Xu Huizhen started to deceive people. She said, "Brother, I can read faces. This is a skill passed down from my ancestors. Your child has a round forehead and a straight and full nose. This is a face that will bring good luck to noble people and a successful career. You will definitely be a great man in the future."

Father Tang turned his head and looked at his son's skinny little face. It was round and plump, but how come he didn't notice that his nose had flesh? So he asked doubtfully, "Are you telling the truth?"

Xu Huizhen said without any guilt: "It is more real than gold and silver. You are destined to have eight sons and one daughter. In the future, you will bring honor to your family and make a fortune. It depends on him."

Father Tang slapped his thigh and said excitedly: "You are absolutely right. I have eight sons, and this one is the sixth."

Xu Huizhen continued to deceive: "You have to send him to school. Knowledge can change your destiny. Only with education can your future be brighter. Only when he is successful can he lead your family to live a good life."

Father Xu rubbed his hands and said awkwardly: "There is no money at home. This child is smart. If I bring him out, he can help me."

Xu Huizhen took out five big black tens and said, "Take this money and send him to school. Remember, this money must be used for its intended purpose and cannot be used for other purposes."

Old Man Xu waved his hands and said, "No, no. We are strangers, I can't take your money."

Xu Huizhen: "This money is not given for nothing. I will come back in 20 years and ask him to return it to me with interest."

Father Tang looked eagerly at the money in Xu Huizhen's hand. "Thank you very much. Where are you from? Where can we find you in the future?"

Xu Huizhen is not Lei Feng, and she does good deeds in a way that leaves a name behind. She said, "I am from Beijing, and I live in Zhengyangmen. My family owns the Daqianmen Tavern. I came to Xujiawan to visit relatives." With this information, they will be able to find her home in the future if they are interested.

Old Man Tang took the five big black tens tremblingly and stuffed all the dried mushrooms in his hand into Xu Huizhen's backpack.

Jiang Peilin shouted at Xu Huizhen's receding back, "I will definitely pay you back double." Xu Huizhen didn't even look back, but raised a thumb and shook it in the air.

Plant a grain of millet in spring and harvest ten thousand seeds in autumn. I hope the seeds planted today can grow into money trees and earn her some money in the future.

After getting on the train, Xu Huizhen calculated that she had spent more than 300 yuan on this trip. This amount of money was really too much to bear!

Since he came here, he has sold 50 yuan in total, resold seafood twice, and with the income from the tavern and his family's original assets, he has a total of about 2500 yuan.

With the supplies rewarded by the system, the family usually spends very little. The biggest expense was buying a bicycle and a sewing machine before the Spring Festival. There were more than 2000 yuan left, and this time I spent another 300 yuan. Next, I will have to spend a lot to buy a job for Xu Jianshe.

Forget it, don't think about it, money is a waste of money, the more you spend, the more you have. Her destination this time is Xikou Village, if she imports a batch of seafood, the money will come!
