    Sunday is the best day for business. Thanks to Gao Shan and Gao Qiang¡¯s help, the store is barely busy.  Gao Liang had long known that her sales would surge during holidays, so even though she prepared five ducks, three chickens, more than ten kilograms of snails, one-third more braised pork and half more cold salad than usual,  The vegetables were all sold out before ten o'clock.

    Gao Liang was carrying a schoolbag filled with money. Although most of it was change, the amount was still considerable, at least nearly double the usual sales.  This situation made Gao Liang couldn't help but look forward to the holidays. Even though it was a bit tiring, it was really profitable.

    Gao Shan and Gao Qiang had a great time selling snails: "Sister, let's sell snails next Sunday."

    Gao Liang said with a smile: "Okay, we will sell it next week." The snails are troublesome to deal with. If the younger brothers and sisters are at home on Saturdays, they can help a lot. On Sundays, they can also help sell them, and they can become a fixture on Sundays in the future.  project.

    When Gao Liang closed the stall and packed her things to go home, three older boys came over and rushed to help her carry her things.

    Wang Yanjun looked at his friend and said rudely: "I'm going to buy chickens, what are you doing?"

    Shouhou said: "San Pang and I went to Brother Yi's house to visit grandma."

    The third fat man nodded fiercely: "Yes! Let's go see grandma."

    Gao Liang said with a smile: "It's okay to go and see grandma. Now that Junwei has left, grandma will be the only one left at home. She will definitely be a little sad. She will definitely be happy that you have gone."

    "Yeah, yeah." Thin Monkey and Three Fatty nodded in unison.

    The three of them all came by bicycle, so Gao Shan and Gao Qiang no longer had to take the bus, and they all rode back together.  On weekdays, when Gao Liang and Wu Chunmei go out, Wu Chunmei takes her. Gao Liang is barely able to ride by herself, but it is too difficult to lead others. Fortunately, Wu Chunmei can ride a bicycle and is very skilled.

    Wang Yanjun tapped his feet on the ground and turned to look at Gao Liang: "Sister Liang, whose car are you taking?"

    Gao Liang said: "I'm sitting in Chunmei."

    Wang Yanjun said: "Sit on mine. There are so many men, how can we let girls carry us?"

    When Gao Liang heard what he said, he got into his car and happened to want to ask him something.  A group of people walked towards Gao Liang's house in four cars. Gao Liang glanced at Shouhou and Sanfatty, who were carrying his younger brothers and sisters, and said, "Where do Brother Wang, Brother Yang and Brother Wang work?" He always felt that they  It seems very leisurely.

    Wang Yanjun said: "Monkey works in a glass factory, and the efficiency is too poor. He hasn't gone to work for a long time. The three fat men will not go to work on the railway until the end of the year."

    Gao Liang said "Oh": "No wonder they are always so idle."

    "That's right." Wang Yanjun also laughed.

    Gao Liang learned about Shouhou and remembered that he said he wanted to learn how to cook from him today. Maybe he really wanted to learn how to cook from him, because he obviously had a sense of crisis of unemployment.  In the late 1980s, the state-owned enterprises went bankrupt and layoffs began to appear. By the 1990s, layoffs became an irreversible torrent. The once proud rice bowl of commercial grain and iron became a beggar for laid-off workers.  Only those who have experienced it will know the sadness of a broken bowl.

    Gao Liang said: "Brother Wang, if Brother Yang really wants to learn cooking, I can teach him." After all, she doesn't plan to open a restaurant. It would be too hard. "But you have to make him mentally prepared. If  If you really want to open a restaurant in the future, it will be very, very hard.¡±

    Wang Yanjun didn't expect that Shouhou's words would be taken to heart by Gao Liang. She is really a kind and thoughtful girl: "Okay, I'll talk to him later. He really wants to find something to do again. Last time  He said he wanted to go out with Brother Yi, but his family disagreed. In the end, he still couldn't bear to lose the job, saying he was worried that he would not be able to find anyone if the factory reopened."

    Gao Liang nodded in understanding: "But I think it will be difficult to restart work." With the development of the market economy, such state-owned small businesses are old and inefficient, and will soon be swept away by the torrent of history.

    After returning home, Gao Liang quickly killed the chicken to make shredded chicken for Wang Yanjun, while Wu Chunmei and Gao Shan were busy preparing lunch.  Gao Liang told them: "Cook more rice. After a while, everyone will have lunch at our house, and grandma will come over. Qiangqiang went and told grandma that she would have dinner at our house at noon and asked her to stop cooking." Gao Liang thought about it.  Now, grandma is always too lonely at home alone, and it¡¯s inconvenient to cook alone, so I might as well just eat at her house and just add a pair of bowls and chopsticks.

    Gao Liang killed two chickens, one for Wang Yanjun, and one for them to eat themselves. By the way, he also left some for Gao Pan. She has not been back since the beginning of school. Although she only went to school for three days, she still had to go to school for three days.  Go take a look and show your concern.  Gao Liang actually hasbsp; When Gao Liang heard this, he suddenly turned his head and looked at his elder sister: "Is it true, Panpan?" Gao Pan lowered his head even lower and said nothing.

    Teacher Zhang said: ¡°It is said that ¡®you have to play for three days after school and play for three days after school¡¯. That refers to primary school students. You are already in the third year of junior high school and are about to face the entrance examination. There is no sense of urgency at all.¡±

    Gao Pan lowered his head and said nothing.  Gao Liang said: "Thank you teacher, I will educate my sister."

    Teacher Zhang nodded: "Gao Pan, you should study hard with your sister. Her grades were very good back then." After saying this, he left.

    Gao Liang's face turned red with anger: "Gao Pan, tell me, what's going on?" She was still trying to be gentle and tolerant to her in the morning, but it's better now. This is already the situation at home, and she still wants to be gentle and tolerant to her.  Time is wasted!  She really didn't have much extravagant expectations for Gao Pan's academic performance. She just hoped that her attitude could be more correct and she wouldn't treat her studies so casually.

    Gao Pan muttered in a low voice: "It belongs to my classmate, I didn't read it."

    Gao Liang turned his head, took a deep breath, nodded and said: "Okay, I will believe you this time. I don't believe you are a heartless person. I get up at three or four in the morning to work every day, working hard to make money.  When you go to school, if you can still sit in class and read novels with peace of mind, then you are really good, I hope you do well. If another teacher reports this situation to me next time, stop studying and come back to sell it to me.  Vegetables, come and experience whether it is harder to study or to sell vegetables." She said and wiped away her tears.

    When Gao Pan saw the eldest sister¡¯s tears again, he was immediately frightened and said: ¡°Sister, I was wrong, I won¡¯t dare to do it again next time.¡±

    Gao Liang turned his head away, clenched his hands into fists, and controlled his impulses. People's bad nature cannot be changed overnight. Gao Pan's inertia was developed since he was a child. The death of his parents may make him lose his temper in a short time.  She pushes herself, but if it takes a little longer, especially if she returns to the environment she is familiar with, she will most likely fall back into her old ways.

    Gao Liang has an unprecedented feeling of powerlessness. No matter how difficult life is, she can grit her teeth and hold on, but she is really helpless when it comes to Gao Pan, whose character has begun to take shape.  She can help others, but she may not be able to help her sister. The saying that God helps those who help themselves is true. When a person gives up, God cannot help her.

    Gao Pan returned to the classroom with tears in her eyes. At this moment, she felt extremely regretful and secretly vowed to study hard and never let her eldest sister shed tears for her again.

    Gao Liang went to Gao Pan¡¯s head teacher to find out the situation.  The head teacher said that Gao Pan had a few best friends who were good at playing, but their grades were not very good, and they might have been affected by being together.  Gao Liang could only ask the teacher to keep his sister farther away from those friends.  What she can do for Gao Pan is very limited, and what affects the direction of Gao Pan's life will be her own choices. She just hopes she doesn't go too far.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
