Chapter 161 Come on, Mingzhu! [3000]
Yin Mingzhu returned to the dormitory in a daze.
Ignoring Xu Siqi who was jumping towards him, he walked to his bed, sat down, supported his chin with both hands and began to daydream.
A small hand waved before his eyes.
Xu Siqi squatted in front of her, looked at her and said, "Hehe, sister, what's the matter? Isn't it your family calling?"
She pouted and asked, "Why do you look like this?"
Yin Mingzhu supported her chin and shook her head, not wanting to talk much.
Xu Siqi's eyes rolled around, and she began to shake her knees, coaxing her in a coquettish tone: "Just tell me, your family called you, and you still have this expression. I guess this family member must be your brother-in-law, right?"
That's what she wanted to hear.
I can no longer suppress my curiosity about gossip.
"not him."
Yin Mingzhu glared at her sister, then said helplessly, "It was my sister who called."
"what?"
Xu Siqi's eyes widened.
The gossip fire in my heart burned even more fiercely.
But I’m afraid that my good sister will find out.
So she pretended to be surprised and stuck out her tongue and said, "How could it be her? Isn't your sister a little stutterer? Sorry, sister, I didn't mean to say your sister."
Yin Mingzhu shook her head: "You don't have to apologize, my sister was a stutterer before."
"Before?"
Xu Siqi got the point and said with wide eyes, "Sister, you mean your sister's stuttering problem has been cured? That's great, you should be happy! Why is she still like this, hehe, is there something else going on?"
The conflict between Yin Mingzhu and her two sisters.
She understood a little, but not much. She could tell from their words that the two sisters probably didn't have any major conflicts.
She had met her sister's younger sister Yin Mingyue, who was a simple-minded and kind-hearted girl at first glance. However, her own sister was a little unkind, a little harsh in her words, and a little too rational. Well, that was all, everything else was fine.
Not a bad person!!!
Yin Mingzhu looked at the gossip-loving little sister in front of her with a bit of helplessness.
It's really a headache.
Then he looked around again and saw the dormitory where the two of them were.
Fortunately, there were only two of them in the dormitory at that time.
The other four girls were not there.
So he said, "Okay, I'll tell you, but you have to keep it a secret and don't tell anyone else."
"I know, I know. Come on, I'm very tight-lipped."
Xu Siqi shook her thighs coquettishly.
Yin Mingzhu looked at her and said, "You guessed right just now. My sister's stuttering has been cured. Although it is not completely healed, it is no longer as uncomfortable for me to communicate with her as before. What does this mean? Do you understand? She is now like a normal person."
"That's a good thing!"
Xu Siqi continued to shake her thighs and act coquettishly: "What else? Tell me, tell me."
Yin Mingzhu said: "Yes, it's a good thing. She has gone out and will no longer be discriminated against. I should be happy for her."
Then the scene changed, and he looked at the little sister and said, "But do you know where she called me from?"
"where?"
Xu Siqi asked suspiciously, "Is it in your county? Or your village committee? I heard you say that your village is a big village, and the village committee has a red phone, and your aunt is often on duty. No, could it be in your house? Do you have a phone installed at home?"
Yin Mingzhu shook her head, then smiled bitterly and said, "You're only half right."
"half?"
"That girl called me from home, but she didn't use a cordless phone. You know our International Relations professor, Lao Cui, right? He has one of those cordless phones, called a big cell phone. Last time we attended his open class, didn't we see him in the corridor using that big cell phone to call someone? Don't you remember how arrogant he was at that time?"
"what?"
"That thing is very expensive, right?"
Xu Siqi was really surprised this time.
She had heard of mobile phones and had even touched them with her own hands. During the winter vacation before the New Year, a cousin from her mother's family came to visit their home and showed off the mobile phone in his hand, saying that it was very valuable nowadays and that its signal had just been opened in the entire Dabaoqing city. It was said that its value was equal to that of gold. Yet a black thing that looked like a broken brick was sold for tens of thousands of yuan, and making a phone call cost several to dozens of yuan, which a group of people could not afford at all.
Even my father was secretly amazed at the dinner table. He told my cousin to be down-to-earth, not to be arrogant, to be low-key and avoid trouble.
I was still thinking about it at that time.
This thing is so precious. Apart from my cousin who always likes to show off, who else would be stupid enough to buy it?
I couldn't help but mutter, "People in the countryside are so rich now, can they afford a mobile phone?"
Yin Mingzhu couldn't help but roll her eyes at her little sister: "Young ladies from the city, you look down on us from the countryside, right? I'm telling you, that thing is really expensive, 28000 each, my sister said, my brother-in-law bought it without blinking an eye, and gave it to him, letting him make any phone calls. We just talked for at least half an hour, guess how much the long-distance charges are?"
It’s a pity that her sister didn’t tell her that the money was paid by her father, otherwise she would have been more justified in her statement.
Seeing that her sister was angry, Xu Siqi quickly apologized, stuck out her tongue, and shook Yin Mingzhu's knees and said coquettishly: "Okay, okay, sister, I was wrong. I really didn't mean it just now. Don't be angry."
Yin Mingzhu couldn't do anything to her: "Okay, I forgive you."
Xu Siqi rolled her eyes slyly, and said to her sister who had just forgiven her with a playful smile: "Hehe, I get it. Ah, you are jealous because you see your brother-in-law getting rich and willing to spend money on your sister?"
Yin Mingzhu blushed and said "Pooh" to her: "I'm not angry, what do you know?"
"I just can't figure out how that guy could do all this in such a short time."
"do you know?"
"Less than a year ago, he was just an apprentice carpenter from the countryside who knew nothing. Even if we consider him as a master carpenter, he is still just a master carpenter. He has no vision and no ambition. He doesn't even want to see the wonderful world outside."
"Also, do you know what his biggest dream was?"
"He said his biggest dream is to have a wife and children and a warm bed, then eat when he wakes up, and then go back to sleep after eating. He doesn't have to use his brain, doesn't have to work, doesn't have to worry about food and clothing, and just live as comfortably as he wants. Isn't this similar to that... pig?"
Yin Mingzhu finally expressed her complaints.
Because she had known that person for several years, the impression he gave her was that he was just that kind of person, and that he was hopeless.
But now it has changed.
Xu Siqi tilted her head and thought for a long time, then suddenly her eyes lit up and said, "Sister, this is wonderful, this brother-in-law is really a wonderful person. I have decided that my dream in the future is to sleep when I am full and eat when I wake up, without any worries. But I also want to eat all the delicacies in the world, and I don't want to stay in one place. I also want to see all the scenery in the world. Only in this way can my life be worthwhile. Wonderful, hehe, I finally found the goal of my life."
Yin Mingzhu covered her forehead with her hands as she felt a headache.
Then she laid back and pulled the quilt over her body, "Go away, you are not my sister, I don't want to see you, I want to be alone."
Xu Siqi continued shaking her knees, laughing and saying, "No, no, no, Jingjing, what's so good about that? Let's talk again. This time, tell me in detail how your brother-in-law made you what you are now. I guess he must have done something amazing. Could he have become the richest man in your county? Come on, tell me."
Yin Mingzhu was so annoyed that she pulled the quilt over her head and this time covered her head directly: "I didn't hear it. Miss, go away."
It seems that acting cute and coquettish has no effect anymore.
Xu Siqi had no choice but to get up.
Suddenly, she thought of a way to please her sister: "I'll bring you some food. Today the cafeteria has lion's head and Dongpo pork. You don't usually like to eat them, but you can't bear to eat them. Sister, I'm going to give it a try today and treat you to a big meal."
Done.
Without waiting for her sisters to answer, she happily walked out the door.
Yin Mingzhu saw that the world had become quiet.
Lift off the quilt.
Her face, which was a little red from being covered by the quilt, was revealed. She was bright and beautiful without any makeup, but it was difficult to hide a trace of sadness in the corners of her brows.
There was one more thing she hadn't told her best sister.
My sister said on the phone that her brother-in-law is doing something big now, something that will benefit the people of the entire county.
She didn't know the specific content.
I only know that this major event involves clothing, hundreds of thousands of dollars of funds, and hundreds of thousands of sets of clothes...
My sister also said.
Her husband told her, bah, her husband told her, if this thing is done well, it may be interviewed by reporters from the city and provincial capital, and published in the city and provincial newspapers, or even on TV.
He even asked her, as an elder sister, to keep an eye out to see if she could find any news about this in Beijing. Even if it was just a few words, she must remember to call her younger sister.
is it possible?
Of course it is impossible.
But as a female university student majoring in international journalism, how could she not know what it means for a township entrepreneur to be interviewed continuously by reporters from the city and provincial TV stations and to be reported in the city and provincial TV stations' official media?
She didn't want to believe it.
But her sister spoke so confidently on the phone that she began to believe it a little.
Is this stinky guy really going to take off?
What my best friend said just now is right. He may have the ability to become the richest man in our hometown, but I should not be willing to admit defeat. If he can do it, I can definitely do it too, and I will do it better than him.
Come on, Mingzhu!
