"Woc~ I haven't even reached the level of being able to make my words come true through my practice, but I've already achieved it in reality?"
When Du Ruo heard his father yelling loudly outside the house, his eyebrows raised and he thought secretly in his heart.
Last night, he casually said to the fox, "The street lights in the village are too dim," but he didn't expect that the fox would take action today.
This speed is quite fast.
"Honey, does this have anything to do with you?"
Xiang Yuanyuan was originally sipping a bowl of rice wine with an egg (which is made by beating an egg into sweet rice wine and then steaming it), and when she saw Du Ruo's eyebrows move, she immediately made a guess.
Although the two had not known each other for too long, they already had the tacit understanding of an old married couple and could guess something about each other just by looking at each other.
"Well, I mentioned it yesterday. It seems that your husband's weight has become heavier again."
Du Ruo did not hide it and nodded, but his voice was so low that only Xiang Yuanyuan could hear it.
"Then you must have done something yesterday. Tell me the details later."
As soon as Xiang Yuanyuan heard it, she knew that Du Ruo was definitely showing off in front of others, and was definitely not just going for a visit as he had told him.
Based on her understanding of Du Ruo, if nothing was done, there would definitely not be such a big change.
"Hehe, let's talk on the way. Dad and Mom, Yuanyuan and I are going to the new house. We will go back to the B&B at noon and won't be back for lunch."
Du Ruo finished his breakfast, shouted loudly, and then pulled Xiang Yuanyuan out.
Along the way, Du Ruo slowly told Xiang Yuanyuan how he showed his prowess in front of everyone on the aircraft carrier.
Although what Du Ruo said sounded like something out of a science fiction movie, Xiang Yuanyuan didn't have any doubts at all, and even had stars in her eyes.
As for her true inner thoughts, only she herself knew. Du Ruo no longer behaved like a "human", which made Xiang Yuanyuan somewhat confused.
After visiting the new house, I found that the water and electricity had already been laid, the outside of the house was being decorated, and the floor-to-ceiling windows on the first floor had been installed.
It looks like it won’t take long before we can move in.
As for whether you can move in right after the renovation is completed? Xiang Yuanyuan said that there is a third-party testing company, and these are all written into the contract. The third-party company will conduct inspections at each stage.
Anything that is unqualified, or releases excessive amounts of harmful gases, or has hidden dangers will be rectified on the spot. With the financial incentives, the wedding can surely be held in the new house.
After reading this, Du Ruo and Xiang Yuanyuan returned to their rented house.
"Du Ruo, hey, hurry up and ask your wife to prepare some wine. We have to have a good drink today."
Du Ruo and Xiang Yuanyuan had just returned to the rented house and hadn't even sat down yet when Yang Chenguang walked into the yard carrying a bag, shouting as he walked.
"You came right after we entered the house. Damn, you haven't wasted this year. You must have gained ten pounds."
Du Ruo had just opened the window for ventilation when she saw Yang Chenguang walk in.
The last time the two met was more than ten days ago.
Ever since Yang Chenguang saw Du Ruo's breath like a sword a few years ago, he hasn't come to Du Ruo's place for a few days.
After the New Year, Du Ruo hurriedly paid New Year's greetings at their home on the first day of the New Year and went to Fujian. He has not come here since then.
But after just over ten days, Yang Chenguang's face was rosy and his figure had become a lot rounder. It was obvious that he had been eating and drinking a lot these days.
"Hey, what can be hidden from me in the village? Look, there is an old hen raised at home, and a wild water fish. I dug it out when I cleaned the pond before the New Year. I have never been willing to eat it, so I stewed it today."
Yang Chenguang did not deny it and took out two net bags from the plastic bag in his hand, which contained slaughtered hens and turtles.
"Okay, there's plenty of wine, but why don't you keep it for your wife's health?"
As soon as Du Ruo saw Yang Chenguang's expression, she knew that he must have something to say.
Yang Chenguang is a man who really has his own way of doing things. If it is just a normal food sharing, he will prepare the food and then bring it over.
But if he wanted to ask someone to do something for him or to thank someone, he usually didn't buy any gifts or anything like that. Instead, he took the ingredients to the other person's home and cooked it himself.
In his own words, he not only gave a gift but also did not cause trouble to others. Most importantly, it was difficult for others to refuse. In addition, his craftsmanship was really good, so it could leave a good impression on people.
"I've made her fat lately, and she said she wants to lose weight and won't eat."
Yang Chenguang smiled, took the ingredients and went into the kitchen, while Du Ruo made a pot of tea and went over to take a look.
But I couldn't help much.
But he was not idle either, but went to prepare the wine.
When Yang Chenguang finished cooking the hen and fish and served it to the table, Du Ruo had already placed a jar of wine on the side. "Hiss~ This wine is so spicy, uh, what kind of wine is this? Why does it feel more dry than taking your pill?"
Du Ruo poured the wine and they both drank one. Then Yang Chenguang also took a big gulp of the wine. Immediately his eyes widened and he touched his throat and swallowed it with great difficulty.
After swallowing it, Yang Chenguang, who was wearing a down jacket, had been busy in the kitchen for so long, but this sip of wine made sweat break out on his forehead, and then he began to unzip his down jacket.
"This is tiger bone wine, and it's new wine that hasn't been blended. Otherwise, why would I only give you half a cup? When you finish drinking, I'll ask Yuanyuan to fill a bottle for you."
Du Ruo also took a sip, but his expression remained normal.
Du Ruo had asked Xiang Yuanyuan to make this tiger bone wine at that time, and it is now ready to drink.
Because what is used is strong liquor, and there are a lot of powerful medicines in it, this ensures that the more the tiger bones are soaked, the better the effect.
This time the wine was newly opened and the new wine did not need to be blended, so Yang Chenguang had such a big reaction when he drank it.
"That's great. I won't be polite then. Come on, come on, eat first."
Yang Chenguang nodded repeatedly, then picked up a piece of water fish meat to suppress the effect of the alcohol.
"What? Is there anything good going on recently?"
Du Ruo picked up a piece of skirt edge for Xiang Yuanyuan, and then started asking about Yang Chenguang.
"Hey, before the New Year, the town said there was a vacancy for a director and they wanted me to go over."
Yang Chenguang spat the bone in his mouth onto the table, and then began to talk about why he was so happy.
"Is that so? Then you have to call Director Yang from now on. Come, Director Yang, have a drink."
After hearing this, Du Ruo was sincerely happy for the other party and raised his glass to clink glasses with him.
"Don't shout, I didn't go."
Yang Chenguang first waved his hand, then picked up the wine glass and clinked it with Du Ruo, but this time he didn't dare to drink it in big gulps, just took a sip.
"Why? Isn't it better to go to the town than to your village? Besides, the director is just the starting point. This is an opportunity to rise to the top."
The person who said this was Xiang Yuanyuan. She didn't quite understand why the other party would refuse. In her opinion, Yang Chenguang was actually very suitable for a career in officialdom. He had a smooth personality and was also very good at dealing with people and doing things.
"I can't help it. I'm too poor to bear it."
Yang Chenguang didn't feel it was a pity. He picked up the wine glass and clinked it with Du Ruo again, then took a sip, but this time he took a big gulp, as if the small sip just now was not enough.
"I went to a fake university and got married right after graduation. I bought a house the year after I got married, and then my wife got pregnant.
At that time, the monthly mortgage was more than two thousand yuan, plus the household expenses, and my wife was pregnant and couldn't go to work, so I had to support the family by myself.
At the beginning, I was able to barely support myself by working as a tour guide.
After my wife had a baby, the expenses for the baby increased, so she wanted to start a business. She opened a store, but she had no experience and lost more than 100,000 yuan. "
As Yang Chenguang spoke, he took out his cigarette, but when he saw Xiang Yuanyuan sitting next to him, he thought for a moment, put it back, and continued:
"During those two years, I worked as a tour guide, a salesperson, delivered goods, and even went to construction sites. I finally paid off my debts and was seeing my life getting better, but then an accident happened."
As Yang Chenguang spoke, he stretched out his hand, only to see a long scar on his palm, which almost occupied half of the entire palm.
"The blade of the cutting machine broke on the construction site and flew out, almost hitting my neck. If I hadn't blocked it with my hand, the blade would have pierced my neck."
Speaking of this, there was still some fear in Yang Chenguang's eyes.
Seeing this, Du Ruo didn't say much. He picked up his wine glass and clinked it with the other party. He didn't know all this as he was still drifting in Guangdong at that time.
"After that, I didn't dare to continue working on the construction site, so I stayed in the village. But I also tried every way to make money, such as raising chickens, growing tea and kiwifruit, and I could barely support such a large family.
Now I have made money from live streaming in the village for two months, and my life is just getting better. Who would be willing to work as a director in the town now? "
Yang Chenguang said this and took another sip, but the wine was so strong that he couldn't help coughing twice.
"It's okay if I don't do it. I can expand the live broadcast next year, make more money and live a stable life."
Du Ruo could see the reluctance in Yang Chenguang's heart, but as he said, he was really tired of being poor. He had worked hard for nearly ten years and finally made some money, and then the opportunity came.
No one cares if he works part-time as a village official in the village and makes money by live streaming, but if he goes to the town, he will be a civil servant and will definitely not be able to continue live streaming.
This is a choice between money and power. You can only choose one. It is understandable that you are unwilling to do so. (End of this chapter)
