Deserted Wife's Extraordinary Life

3After all, just marrying someone from the city and having a family registration was enough to tempt people to marry someone from the city.    

    

The boys in the county went to the countryside to find wives, just as the residents of Hong Kong came to pick wives. The men with the worst conditions could be picked by the best girls in the county.    

    

Liang Ying felt dizzy from what Third Aunt had said. After coming to this small county from the capital, she had been filled with feudal thoughts and a sense of class consciousness. She had never felt so deeply that there was such a huge gap between the lives of people, such as hukou, gender differences, rural differences, and so on.    

    

Liang Ying could not help but feel lucky that her mother had chosen to marry her father and give birth to her in the capital city, becoming an honorable citizen of the capital. Otherwise, if her mother had stayed in Lu County, she would probably have become a chatty housewife like Third Aunt and the others. and you're going to get a price for yourself...    

    

After a series of bumps, Liang Ying finally drove the car to Liu Kun's prison cell.    

    

After four hours of driving, she was exhausted. She stopped the car in front of the prison and looked at her watch.    

    

"I won't come out until 12: 30. I'll have to wait for a while."    

    

Zhang Qian said, "Then sleep in the car. I think you're pretty tired. I'll get out of the car and have a smoke."    

    

Liang Ying harrumphed and said, "You should also take the driving license test. Don't let me drive every time you go out on a long journey. I'm so tired."    

    

Zhang Qian smiled good-naturedly and said, "Alright, I'll go learn my driving license when I get back."    

    

The reason why he didn't want to learn before was because he didn't have a car, and the cost of learning the driver's license was very high as well. He couldn't afford to pay 5,000 yuan for it.    

    

In this era, there were many places where consumption was very radical. The wages were clearly very low, and the average salary was less than one hundred yuan. However, some expenses were excessively high.    

    

For example: 5,000 yuan for a driver's license, two or three thousand for a designer suit, 1.5 yuan for a bottle of cola, and two dollars for a pack of gum.    

    

But they represent fashionable consumption trends and show face to neighbors and friends, so some people will grit their teeth and spend: no car, a driver's license, no money, a designer suit...    

    

As Zhang Qian got out of the car, he asked Liang Ying, "Can you reimburse me in public funds for driving the car?"    

    

Liang Ying chuckled, "Of course you can take the test if I tell you. If you can get your driver's license, it would count as adding a main force to the company's business."    

    

Zhang Qian knew that Liang Ying was always happy when she did things. She was willing to spend money, but she wasn't picky about that. After all, she was a girl from a big city. She wasn't as stingy to her son as his father.    

    

In this situation, his father would definitely be reluctant to reimburse him for the school car.    

    

Liang Ying took a nap in the car. She woke up early in the morning and was extremely tired after driving all the way here.    

    

Until she was awakened by the sound of glass being knocked on, she opened her eyes and saw two faces lying on the window: one was Zhang Qian's, the other was Liu Kun's.    

    

Zhang Qian said with a smile, "Liu Kun has been released. Let's go."    

    

Liang Ying opened the door and got out of the car. Liu Kun had shaved his head and changed into the clothes he wore before going to prison. Other than that bald head, there was nothing special about him.    

    

He did not have much luggage, only a small bag in his hand. Liang Ying smiled and said, "If I knew you had so little luggage, I would have had your mother come along."    

    

"Forget it, she doesn't know how to take a car. It's easy for her to get sick. It's fine if she doesn't come, but she's going home anyway."    

    

As Liu Kun said this, he threw the luggage into the trunk and got into the car.    

    

Zhang Qian said, "Shall we find a place to eat?"    

    

"This place is full of shit. If you want to eat, you have to eat more than 10 kilometers away. Watch out on the road and find a small restaurant." Liang Ying said.    

    

When she arrived, she already saw that there were only a few restaurants on the national highway, so there was no point in thinking about it.    

    

Liu Kun didn't say anything when he heard them chat. He was already a bit introverted in the past, but now, besides being introverted, he added something unfathomable.    

    

Perhaps that experience had left him with an indelible impression that his temperament had quietly changed.    

    

Liang Ying glanced in the rearview mirror. Liu Kun's eyes met hers in the rearview mirror. Seeing his deep gaze, Liang Ying felt guilty and asked,    

    

"Liu Kun, your mom told you to do it with us, are you willing?"    

    

"Willing, of course I'm willing. If I don't work with you guys, where else can I find a job? Everyone knows that I have a criminal record, so no one will take me in. Let alone looking for a job, I don't think I'll get a chance to take the college entrance exam. Liu Kun smiled bitterly.    

    

Liang Ying could only smile awkwardly and ask, "What do you want to do?" I see a suitable position for you. "    

    

Liu Kun shook his head and said, "I don't have any ideas right now. Let's talk after we leave for a while."    

    

Zhang Qian tried to smooth things over, "That's true. Come out and take a good rest. Don't be in such a rush to work. First, take care of your body and mind."    

    

As the three of them chatted, Liang Ying parked her car in front of a small restaurant by the side of the road.    

    

The small restaurant was built using temporary building materials. The ceiling was made of stone and cotton tiles, and the walls were made of iron. It seemed like they were specially built to run the restaurant.    

    

This road was mainly through the forest. Other than this restaurant, there were no houses or villages nearby. It seemed like this road would not lead to the back of the village and would not lead to any shops.    

    

When Liang Ying saw that there were quite a number of cars parked in front of the store, she thought that it was quite business. There weren't any train tickets in this place, so if the driver was hungry, he could only choose to eat here.    

    

In front of the hotel were three grids of sink, a sink for washing vegetables, a sink filled with removed bowls and chopsticks, and a sink filled with what kind of meat.    

    

Liang Ying washed her hands in the sink, which was filled with mountain spring water. It was cool to the touch, and Liu Kun and Zhang Qian washed their hands as well.    

    

"Zhang Qian, go order!"    

    

Zhang Qian then asked Liu Kun: "What do you want to eat? I can see that there are quite a few dishes in the restaurant, all of them are wild game, whatever you want to eat, just say it. "    

    

"I'm fine with anything. As long as I have meat, it's good. I can't even eat meat in there. If I could, it would be thin. Haven't you seen how thin I am? I'm almost as thin as a bamboo pole." Liu Kun laughed.    

    

Liu Kun didn't want to feel sorry for himself while eating. Plus, he felt that Zhang Qian and Liang Ying were both rich now that they opened a big shopping mall, how could he be afraid that they would spend some money to eat? Thus, he said rudely.    

    

Zhang Qian smiled without a hint of awkwardness on his face. He said to the restaurant owner, "Bring me a plate of fried wild boar meat, a plate of braised pork ribs, and a plate of red mushroom fried rice powder.    

    

After Zhang Qian ordered, the boss went to prepare the materials.
