Chapter 023: Catch the Gathering

However, usually everyone wants to visit the market, which is generally just polished by genius, so they walk by themselves, and few are willing to spend money on a tractor.

Even an elderly person like Mrs. Qin, those two legs are thrown apart, and the speed of rushing is not slower than that of young people at all!

Qin Mutong knew that the old lady felt sorry for her granddaughter, so she would make an exception to spend money on a tractor.

In fact, Qin Mutong didn't care whether he was walking or taking a tractor in this rush, this walking could still be regarded as exercise, and it didn't take much time. And now this road, the quality is not very good. Even if the tractor takes the national highway, the car is also shaking for a while, and it doesn't hurt to sit occasionally, once you sit for a long time, the taste is not very comfortable.

However, the old lady felt sorry for Qin Mutong, and Qin Mutong naturally felt sorry for the old lady.

Even if the state of sitting on a tractor is not very comfortable, compared to walking, it must be better for the body of the elderly to take a tractor.

Early the next morning, Qin Mutong and Mrs. Qin got on a tractor and went to Xinle Town.

There is still a lot of sand on the tractor, it should be Zhao Jianhua who helped people pull goods before, but he didn't clean up the car, so there will be sand residue.

But people don't care.

On the tractor, in addition to Qin Mutong and Mrs. Qin, there were several passengers, all of whom were not short of money.

This is a tractor for pulling goods, not for hitchhiking, so there are no seats or anything on the car, everyone sits directly on the railings on both sides of the tractor, or squats directly.

Because of Mrs. Qin's age, everyone let her, so she gave her a place at the railing.

Qin Mutong stood in front of the old lady, holding the old lady with one hand and holding his big bamboo basket with the other, and he could barely stabilize his figure.

Fortunately, there are a lot of back baskets in this tractor, which almost all the space is occupied. So although the tractor shook when it started, Qin Mutong could stand still and didn't have to worry about falling suddenly.

The people around saw that Qin Mutong was so concerned about the old lady, and they all smiled and quipped: "It's still the granddaughter who is intimate and knows how to take care of people." In a few years, you should be happy, aunt!"

"That's it, my monkey, when there is a car, it has to jump three feet high, where is there a child so well-behaved?"

"I heard that Tong Tong is also a good student, have you figured out where to go to high school?"

Everyone was gossiping, and they were embarrassed to say that Qin Mutong, but Mrs. Qin had a smile on her face.

When they arrived in the town, Mrs. Qin gave two cents for the fare, and Zhao Jianhua drove the tractor away "suddenly".

Qin Mutong asked curiously, "Milk, when we go back, will we still take the tractor?"

Mrs. Qin shook her head: "Your Uncle Jianhua still has something to do, how can you have been waiting here? ”

Hanging Street is a three-way intersection in Xinle Town. It is a street carved out of the side of the national highway, hence the name.

Usually, the vehicles on the car stop and get off people on this area.

Qin Mutong nodded suddenly in realization.

She carried the bamboo basket on her back, and the big basket covered her entire back, just like a child who had to pretend to be an adult, with a little funny and a little sad.

However, this is the case everywhere these days, so no one will find it strange or even take a second look.

Only Mrs. Qin felt distressed, and said repeatedly: "Tong Tong, quickly put down the back basket, I'll carry it!"

If she had known this, she wouldn't have brought this big backpack!

There's a small basket at home!

Of course Qin Mutong wouldn't listen to her.

She strode into the street with the basket on her back: "Milk, let's go quickly, lest the good things be picked up for a while!"

Mrs. Qin had to follow, and stopped her funny: "Wrong way, wrong walk, let's go this way!"

Xinle Town itself is not big, there are only two streets in total, and these two streets are still branched out from one entrance.

On these two streets, one sells agricultural products, such as vegetable seeds, brooms, fertilizers, etc., and there is a vegetable market down the road. On the other street, daily necessities are sold, such as clothing and stationery, as well as supply and marketing cooperatives, banks and hospitals.

The street where Qin Mutong walked was the street where agricultural products were sold.

"Milk, aren't we here to buy fertilizer?" Qin Mutong said strangely.

Otherwise, what would she do with such a big back basket?

Mrs. Qin smiled: "I'll buy the fertilizer later." Isn't school about to start, let's buy you new clothes first!"

Qin Mutong: "...... Milk, I just bought new clothes a few years ago, so I don't need to buy any more, do I?"

A girl of her age in the village rarely wore new clothes throughout the year, and almost all of them were left over from the big ones, so they were worn by the small ones. Even if you don't have it at home, you can find old clothes from relatives and friends to change them.

Of course, new clothes are what everyone wants, and Qin Mutong is no exception.

But now there are only two people left in the Qin family, she and the old lady, the old and the young, there is not even a strong labor force in the family, so it is natural to save money.

Mrs. Qin shook her head disapprovingly and said, "You bought new clothes for the New Year a year ago, which are too thick." Spring is about to begin, and the weather is going to warm up, so it's time to buy some jackets to wear. ”

"I bought the jacket last year, and I can still wear it!"

"It's been a year, you've grown again, and last year's clothes were short. ”

Qin Mutong: "......"

She can't bear her deep love for her!

Qin Mutong still couldn't convince Mrs. Qin in the end, and was dragged by Mrs. Qin to buy new clothes.

At the end of the 80s, there were more and more people doing business in the town, but there were still not many people who had the confidence to open clothing stores, only three or four. Mrs. Qin took Qin Mutong's family to look over one by one, but she never found satisfactory clothes.

The main reason is that the quality of these clothes is not very good, the thread is obvious, and after buying it back, you have to repair it again before you can wear it, otherwise you are afraid that it will be torn if you are not careful.

Qin Mutong quietly breathed a sigh of relief in his heart: "Milk, since these clothes are not very good, then let's not buy them, right?"

Mrs. Qin was determined to buy new clothes for her granddaughter, so she immediately gritted her teeth and said, "Forget it, let's go to the supply and marketing cooperative!"

Qin Mutong: "......"

The old lady is quite stubborn!

The supply and marketing cooperatives in the town used to be state-run, and although the things sold in it were expensive, the quality was one by one. If a family marries a daughter-in-law or a daughter, they must buy everything from the supply and marketing cooperative.

Now, although the supply and marketing cooperatives have been replaced by private contracting, everyone still maintains the habit of going to the supply and marketing cooperatives when they buy good things.
