Everyone was laughing at that, the uncle of the aid court came. took a basket off the handlebar and handed it to grandma: "Auntie, this is pork, you can cook, today's big set, Katsuo is not free to come back to help, let me send it to you." ”

"How do you know about the quilt today? There are a lot of people in the family, and the two of you are still running back and forth. Grandma took the meat and asked him.

"My eldest brother gave me a letter, and Katsuo bought a sewing machine for my sister Wanying, and I just sent it. "The third uncle's bicycle has a cardboard box on the back rack, which turns out to be a sewing machine, or a Shanghai Bee brand.

Grandma said happily: "I have wanted to buy it for a long time, but I don't have a ticket, and my nephew and daughter-in-law are bothered." ”

The third uncle unloaded the sewing machine, discussed it with the second aunt and the two aunts, and installed it after a while. The eldest aunt tried to use it for a while, and said to the second aunt: "It's still better than Shanghai's things, this bee brand is better than your workers' and peasants' brand, you can try it." ”

My uncle and grandmother said to her: "It's as new as the old, the second family's sewing machine has been used for several years, of course, it is not as good as this new one." ”

My aunt's words reminded my aunt that she was a straight person. "Chaoxia, don't go to your heart, I don't mean anything else. "It turned out that the second aunt's sewing machine was accompanied by her mother's family.

The second aunt was also cheerful, and said with a smile: "I will join the army during the Chinese New Year, and if I don't bring the sewing machine, it will be yours in the future, and the good or bad will be yours." ”

The eldest aunt said to her: "Then I have to thank you, I will give you money, let the second brother get a ticket, you can buy a new one, and you can't leave it with the child." ”

The second aunt said to her: "Sister-in-law, how can I ask for your money, in the future, there will be the eldest brother and you left in the family, and you will have to take care of the two elders, and it is convenient for you to make clothes for the old man by leaving a sewing machine." ”

The eldest aunt said heartily: "You can rest assured, your eldest brother and I promise to take care of the second elder." In fact, our father and mother are physically tough, and with the help of the second elder in the future, we are still the most polished. The eldest aunt looked very satisfied.

Seeing her like this, my uncle and grandmother said with a smile: "You are stained now, and we will not be able to move in the future, and you two will also serve, so you can't shout at a loss when the time comes." ”

When the eldest aunt heard this, she was anxious, "Mother, you can't believe me, can't you believe that you are patriotic, he is not that kind of person." ”

My uncle and grandmother laughed at her, "My son is not that kind of person, then you are, these are all thirty people, and they don't have the eyes of an adult." ”

The eldest aunt answered quickly: "Mother, in front of your old man, I am a child at all times." ”

The second grandmother said to her uncle and grandmother: "Your life is really good, several daughters-in-law are close to you, better than daughters, daughters are older and married, and they only come back a few times a year, and daughters-in-law will be in front of you." ”

My uncle and grandmother said with satisfaction: "Yes, the most satisfying thing for my old couple is these daughters-in-law, everyone says that the family and everything is prosperous, and our family has been prosperous in recent years, thanks to her harmony with the concubines." ”

The second aunt said: "It's still your second elder's leader, Aijun is not at home, you and my father didn't make it difficult for me, the children are all grown up by you, and it is our blessing to have your second elder." ”

A few people laughed and laughed, before eleven o'clock, the six quilts were put on and the stalls were cleaned up. Grandma fried the meat and stewed a pot of winter melon.

Seeing that the second grandmother was leaving, the grandmother left her and her mother to eat: "Second grandmother, there is a lot of meat bought in the DPRK, don't cook, let's eat together." ”

The second grandmother walked faster, "Then you can eat your food, you don't often help me." You are a big family, and you are enough to keep you busy. ”

Grandma used a pot of vegetables and brought it to the second grandmother. "You've been busy all morning, hurry up and rest, let the cinnamon steamed buns, don't stir-fry. ”

The second grandmother left, and the grandmother asked the aunt to carry the sewing machine into the house, take out the blankets, and also take out the two batches of cloth.

"I bought it in Pingcheng yesterday, and the cloth was processed by someone in the No. 3 National Cotton Factory, and I didn't ask for a cloth ticket. The blankets are one bed for each family, and the cloth is used to make quilts and sheets first, and the rest is used to make clothes for the children. ”

Everyone was attracted by the blankets, and the second aunt said, "I have seen blankets in the troops of the Patriotic Army, but they are not so good." Auntie, this is a lot of money. ”

Grandma told them, "You only need to use it, don't worry about money." If I can afford it now, I'll give it to you. Don't talk about going out, don't get noticed. ”

Uncle and grandmother also instructed them: "Your aunt loves you, keep your mouth shut, don't cause trouble for her." ”

The two aunts hurriedly said, "Mother, we know." The second aunt asked grandma: "Auntie, what are you talking about the cover?"

Grandma patted her head and quickly took out the quilt cover that Youyou had prepared and showed it to them. "That's it, I saw it in Linshui, I looked good, and then I thought about going to Pingcheng to distribute it. ”

The two aunts tore off the quilt and gestured on the blanket, full of love. Grandma saw that they understood, so she arranged for them: "You two will make a bed for Yuanchao first, let him take it back, and I will cook with your mother." ”

The eldest aunt asked the third uncle: "Yuan Chao, you are young, do you want to be green?" Uncle Yuan Chao said indifferently: "Sister-in-law, you can watch and do it." But this quilt cover is really good, I asked Katsuo to buy some more cloth, let's make a few more beds. ”

The current quilts are all seven feet long, and it takes 950 meters of cloth to make a quilt cover, and these two batches of cloth are only enough to make twenty quilt covers.

Yoyo is really regretful, why didn't he calculate the account, at that time, I thought that the two batches of cloth were a lot, but I didn't expect them to be narrow. Hey, I'll have to make excuses to take it out again.

At half past eleven, my mother was out of school, and as soon as she entered the house, her aunt told her, "Wanying, look, Katsuo bought you a sewing machine." ”

Mom looked at the new sewing machine and was happy, "Oh, it's still the Shanghai Bee brand, third brother, thank you Shengnan for me, I'll give you the money." ”

Uncle Yuan said: "Sister, what are we thanking our family for, shouldn't this be, you see how many things my aunt has bought for us, and we haven't given money." Katsuo said, this is the intention of the two of us, and we will not ask for money. ”

The two aunts also said, "Sister, since they gave it to them, you can keep it." Let's move on to the quilt cover, just in time for you to try out the new machine. ”

The uncle helped the eldest aunt cut the cloth, and the second aunt and mother used a sewing machine to do it, and they were busy until the grandmother called for dinner.

In addition to the stewed pot of pork and winter melon, there are four dishes: roast mutton, roast chicken, scrambled eggs with chili peppers, and cold spinach vermicelli, each dish is two servings.

When Grandpa and they finished drinking a bottle of wine, the dishes on the plate were eaten by the children, and the pork and winter melon in the pot were left.

Zhiyuan, Zhiliang and Haohao compared and ate, and they all scooped the third bowl. Uncle and grandfather watched the children eat, "They all say that our children grow up fast, I don't see our children can eat, and our family has never cut off meat this year, or this way of eating, why is it not enough." ”

Zhiliang ate and replied: "Grandpa, it will be enough to eat meat, isn't that a fool?" Youyou thought to himself, there will be many children who eat enough meat in the future, and none of them will be stupid. 11
