Chapter 37: Treasure Hunting (I)
Zhao Xiaodong was a little painful, but when he thought that this wool was bought for Song Yiran, he gritted his teeth and wanted to buy it.
"Auntie, it's too expensive, let's not buy it. ”
Zhao Xiaodong took out the money and said, "Don't worry about it." ”
Song Yiran pressed her hand and said, "Didn't I make a new cotton jacket, why did I buy this wool?"
Zhao Xiaodong's eyes widened, "How do you know that this wool was bought for you." ”
Song Yiran didn't speak, thinking to herself that the red yarn could be worn by a widow! Zhao Xiaodong usually follows the rules, but she is afraid that the widow will have a lot of things in front of the door, she is afraid that people will find out what is wrong, how can she let herself wear such bright clothes!
"Anyway, we don't spend this unjust money, it's too expensive!"
Zhao Xiaodong was determined to do something, and no one could stop him, "What's expensive? You are so big, and my aunt didn't buy you a decent thing, that's it! I'll go back and knit a turtleneck sweater for you, and knit the most fashionable look." After speaking, he dodged Song Yiran's hand, took out the money, counted out nine yuan, and bought a pound and a half of red wool.
Song Yiran stood there and didn't speak for a long time, Zhao Xiaodong's heart to her was so hot that it made her heart feel something called pressure for no reason.
She is most afraid of owing favors.
Sister Ma was also shocked by Zhao Xiaodong's hand, and she really bought it! But she quickly reacted, helped Zhao Xiaodong open the ticket, and repeatedly picked out the quality of the wool, wrapped it with a paper wrapper, and then tied it with a rope quickly.
"Comrade, this is your yarn, take it. Sister Ma said as she took out two towels with a little flaw from the counter, "Comrade, this towel is a defective product, the director said, give you two." Her voice was very low, for fear of being heard by the person who actually bought the thing.
Zhao Xiaodong didn't feel any pain at this time, he happily put the towel and wool in the basket together, and touched Song Yiran with his elbow, "What else do you want to buy, my aunt will buy it for you." ”
Sister Ma was very envious on the side, it was really not easy to be an aunt to be able to do this. What kind of years is it now, it's good for a big family to be full, and people like them who have jobs only have a salary of more than 20 yuan a month. Spend nine yuan to buy woolen clothes, what family!?
"If I don't buy it, I don't lack anything. Song Yiran took Zhao Xiaodong's arm and whispered: "Let's go, I can't look at you for a while, and I have to spend money." ”
The two of them went out happily.
Zhao Xiaodong is really happy, Song Yiran is just giving her face and coaxing her to be happy.
When I came to town, I spent a lot of money and offended people.
People who can become salespeople have relatively better conditions at home, so they don't know what the fat salesman's family is about. This time, I'm afraid that there will be a follow-up, and the woman is a cautious person at first glance, and she will definitely hold a grudge.
Probably an intuition, Song Yiran felt that something would definitely happen to her and that named Jiang Meimei.
Okay, watch out for yourself, the soldiers will block, and the water will cover the earth!
Song Yiran took Zhao Xiaodong's arm and walked on the street.
The image of the township in this era was still very backward, the roads were dusty, and pollutants such as horse manure and cow feces could be seen everywhere on the ground. Houses are scattered on both sides of the street, not to mention high-rise buildings, and even decent brick houses are rare. The slogan on the wall ~ is very eye-catching, and it has some characteristics of this era, which is nothing more than engaging in economy and promoting production.
Song Yiran found that after turning around, he basically finished the town, and he was a little disappointed.
"Auntie, isn't there a scrap yard in our town?" In the past, she had heard the old professor in the hospital sigh, saying that in the past ten years~ the years, many countries' treasures and cultural inheritance have suffered a devastating blow. Many people's ancestral treasures are treated as dross, or smashed, looted and burned, and some are simply thrown into scrapyards and disposed of as garbage.
Song Yiran has heard others say that the family history of some predators started from 'picking up garbage' in the scrapyard. She is also a layman, so she is naturally tempted. Besides, she has space as a cheating weapon, so she doesn't have to worry about what she has in her hand being discovered.
The most severe period has passed, and now it has not even been a few years since the rain and the sky cleared, and it is hard to guarantee that some people will have the same thoughts as herself, so it is better for her to strike first. To put it mildly, no one is afraid that money is hot, and to put it bigger, it is to save the country~ national losses.
"Yes, but not here, in the westernmost part of town, the boss is there. Zhao Xiaodong looked puzzled, "What are you doing there?"
Song Yiran smiled and said in her ear: "I want to find a few books to read, I don't know if there are any." ”
"Yes, but it's all used to paste the wall, and if you go, you can just say it's pasting the wall, but don't say it's reading. Zhao Xiaodong felt that Song Yiran wanted to read books, which was a normal thing! Her family was intellectuals, and she was definitely close to books, unlike herself, and she didn't know a few big characters, and her head hurt when she saw a book.
Zhao Xiaodong mysteriously pulled Song Yiran aside: "You have to remember, just say it's for pasting the wall." Although it is not as good as it was a few years ago, in the end...... It's still not peaceful. ”
Song Yiran nodded hurriedly, "I know, I know." She asked, "Will you come with me?"
Zhao Xiaodong actually had other things, but she was afraid that Song Yiran would get into trouble, so she simply said, "I'm fine, I'll go with you!"
The two of them walked all the way west to the scrap yard.
It is said to be a scrap yard, but in fact it is a particularly dilapidated compound, the courtyard walls are more than one person high earthen walls, the entrance is a huge large iron gate, and there is a small bungalow in the yard. The yard was piled up everywhere, scrap copper and rotten iron, tables, chairs and benches, as well as old books, old newspapers and so on.
Song Yiran and Zhao Xiaodong explained their intention to the janitor, he looked the two of them up and down a few times, and then waved their hands to let them in, "Pick it, and then weigh it to the door to settle." ”
The two of them hurriedly thanked them, and walked into the courtyard with one foot deep and one foot shallow.
Although the yard is messy, the hygiene is OK, the weather is cold, and I don't smell any bad smell. Song Yiran paid attention to his feet as he walked.
"Ouch, what is this!" Zhao Xiaodong was not as flexible as Song Yiran, and she almost tripped after taking a few steps, if Song Yiran hadn't helped her, she would have to fall on a bundle of wire, and it would be terrible if she pricked her eyes.
"Auntie, why don't you wait for me at the door, nothing can happen here, you can see me when you look up." You can't help, you don't know what books I want!"
Zhao Xiaodong thought for a while, "That's okay, I'll be waiting for you at the door, you must be careful!"
