Chapter 299: Han Yi packed his things
Shi's mother asked how much it was sold today while eating? Changsheng said, Shi's mother smiled and said okay.
After the family finished eating, Shi's mother packed up the dishes and went to wash.
Changsheng and Shi's father rechecked the bananas and plantains in the basket and put them away.
Hanyi went back to his house to rest, and after he was done, the family went back to the house to rest.
Hanyi sat down on the edge of the bed, combed his hair, and said as he combed, "Changsheng, I will sell bananas tomorrow, and I will ask Yizhi to cut his hair in the afternoon." ”
Changsheng nodded and said yes, lay down and slept.
Hanyi looked at his tired appearance and didn't ask him. I rested on the side, too.
At about four o'clock in the afternoon, the family got up, and Shi's mother went to the yard to take a look at the peanuts, peeled them and ate them, which were already very dry.
Shi's father picked up the millet and bit it with his teeth, it was already very dry, he immediately smiled and said: "This millet is dried, or the wind will clean the millet this afternoon, and go and hand over the public grain." ”
Shi's mother smiled and said okay, Shi's father and Shi's mother lifted out the wind dustpan and started the wind valley.
Changsheng and Hanyi collect peanuts and pack them in rice pockets.
The pockets were filled with hemp rope and then carried into a wooden cabinet in the hall.
After harvesting, Shi Ma and the others were still in the wind valley, Changsheng helped sweep, and Shi Ma used a dustpan to pour into the wooden wind dustpan like a cow.
With Shi Dad controlling the wooden switch with his left hand and cranking the iron handle with his right hand, the millet flowed from a square empty frame into the bucket below.
All I heard was a loud noise, and all the other weeds and dust were blown away.
Hanyi went to slaughter pigweed and feed the pigs, as well as chickens and ducks.
After the wind was over, it was still early, and it was more than five o'clock, when Shi's father asked Changsheng to go with him to pay the public grain, and Changsheng said yes.
The two fathers and sons picked two baskets of millet, but they didn't pick them full, so there should be more.
The two mothers-in-law and daughter-in-law cleaned up at home, and after cleaning, they collected the dry clothes and prepared to make dinner.
At this time, the sun was not so hot, and the father and son stopped three times on the road before finally reaching the street.
There are very few motorcycles in the village, and there are no horses, because these two things are not cost-effective in terms of time.
After arriving, the father and son rested for a while, and looked at the street, where there were a few villagers who came with grain, all of whom came to pay the grain.
The two fathers and sons took a break, and in one breath picked up the Xbei Supply and Marketing Cooperative, where there was already a queue to pay the public grain.
Standing at the back of the line, the two fathers and sons waited patiently.
A village cadre was counting the numbers, asking for his name, and then asking the signature of the person who had just handed over the public grain to press his fingerprint.
Two people helped to carry it on the big scale, and after weighing, they reported the number, and if they were more, they would return it to the villagers and pick it up.
Soon arrived, when the father and son were finished, after weighing and writing it a few times, they asked Shi's father to sign according to their handprints, and Changsheng helped to write.
The remaining two fathers and sons carried home, and Shi's father said as he walked: "This year's public grain is a few catties less than last year's." ”
Changsheng nodded and said yes, looked at both sides of the street, and saw that there were two barber shops, slightly better than before, and had gone out to work here to cut his hair before.
Changsheng said as he walked: "Dad, I'll come with Hanyi tomorrow afternoon to cut our hair, and we're almost going to go out to work." ”
Dad Shi nodded and said yes, and the two fathers and sons said while walking, when will the pigs raised this year be sold? Dad Shi said while walking with an empty basket: "One month before the Chinese New Year, the price of pigs was high at that time. It's okay to feed one a year. ”
Changsheng nodded and said yes, discussing the harvest at home and outside, his parents had already planned it well. Everything that can be sold at home will be picked and sold.
While walking, the two fathers and sons finally went home, and the two mothers-in-law and daughters-in-law were still cooking, and the two fathers and sons looked at the time, and hurriedly went to the shore of the field and picked up the grain and grass there.
By the time the meal was ready, they had already picked it twice and came back, and the family began to prepare for the meal.
The meal was three vegetables and one scrambled egg, and Shi's mother said while eating: "Tomorrow I will kill chickens and ducks at home, and you will come back after you sell them to be delicious, and you are about to go out to work." ”
Changsheng smiled and said Okay, after the family finished eating, Hanyi cleaned up the dishes and went to wash them, and Shi's mother went to the hot water.
When the heat was good, the whole family washed, closed the door and went back to their own rooms to sleep.
Thinking that they would have to sell something tomorrow, Changsheng and Hanyi quickly fell asleep.
After breakfast the next morning, Changsheng and Hanyi went out into the street with the bananas and plantains in the basket.
After they left, Shi's mother first picked up her clothes and went to the river to wash, and Shi's father fed the family's livestock.
Pack peanuts for Changsheng, and let him take some out to eat when the time comes, although his son can't make a lot of money, but he works hard and doesn't use money indiscriminately, and he knows that it's okay to take the money back to repair the house.
He and his wife have been in the countryside all their lives, they haven't earned any big money, just enough food and clothing, and their lives are barely okay, Shi's father is very grateful to Shi's mother, and he is also satisfied with his son and daughter-in-law.
After loading, I went to the fence in the yard and caught a chicken and a duck, closed the bamboo door, tied it and put it in the kitchen.
Shi's mother went to the river to wash clothes, and only came back an hour later, when Shi's father had already boiled water in the kitchen.
After the water boiled, Shi's mother also came back, took out the hanger to dry the clothes, and hung them on the bamboo pole outside.
When the father and mother began to kill chickens and ducks.
Changsheng They stopped twice on the road, and hurriedly went to the street, where the villagers of several villages had already come, picking up the vegetables they had grown, as well as eggs, and the fruits of the family, on both sides of the vegetable market, lined up and put them away, and began to sell them loudly.
Changsheng they had to put it next to them, put down the flat pole and the two couples began to sell, there were several bananas on the street, Changsheng saw it, and sold it as if it was yesterday in the town.
There is only one village school on the street, and the people who buy things are teachers and people who live on the street, and those who don't grow bananas at home buy them.
Hanyi also sold like yesterday, and after calling for a while, there were so few people who came to see, and the two couples waited patiently.
There are also other fruit sellers next to it, and there are very few people who buy them.
As time passed, Changsheng and Hanyi finally sold five catties of bananas and four catties of plantains.
They were all sold for one yuan and five dimes a catty, and seeing that the things in the basket were a little less, the two couples breathed a sigh of relief.
There were fewer and fewer people on the street, and later they sold four catties of bananas and five catties of plantains, and the two couples saw that it was almost noon, so they also cleaned up and went home with the remaining bananas and plantains.
Hanyi carried the empty basket, and Changsheng carried the remaining three bunches of plantains and four bunches of bananas, and walked home.
The two couples said as they walked, they didn't have to sell the rest, they would come to cut their hair in the afternoon, and they would be together.
The couple walked quickly and returned home not long after.
My father and mother had already slaughtered the chickens and ducks and were cooking lunch.
Carrying a basket and placing it in the hall, the two couples sat down to rest.
Han Yi gave all the money from the sale to Changsheng, and Changsheng asked her to pretend to be herself, and Han Yi nodded and said yes.
After sitting for a while, the two couples went to help in the kitchen, and Shi's mother asked Changsheng with a smile: "Is it sold out?"
Changsheng brought water, washed it and said, "No, there are a few catties left, let's eat it ourselves." ”
Shi Ma smiled and said yes, and then asked, "You guys are about to go out, pack up the things you should bring, and go quickly." ”
The two couples nodded and said okay, went back to their house to clean up, and Han Yi immediately asked what Changsheng wanted to bring?
Changsheng sat on the edge of the bed and thought for a while, and began to say: "Bring three sets of winter and summer clothes, four sets of underwear and underwear, three pairs of thick socks, and three pairs of thin ones."
Shoes can be brought with four pairs, sandals and winter shoes, evening sandals and thick slippers.
Towel, toothbrush, toothpaste, soap, soap, a box, and a soap. ”
After Changsheng finished speaking, Han Yi immediately smiled and asked, "That's okay, is there anything for sale at work?"
Changsheng sighed and said, "Yes, yes, it's more expensive than what we sell at home, and I may not have time to buy it when I go to work." ”
Han Yi nodded and said with a smile: "I see, I know." ”
After saying that, he turned around and began to clean up, Changsheng took out the black travel bag and opened it, and asked Hanyi to put everything in.
He also has two travel bags of his own, which he also contains, and he brings them back every time he goes home.
Hanyi cleaned up his clothes and underwear, packed them in, and then put his shoes and socks in another travel bag.
After putting it out, Changsheng looked at it and said, "In the afternoon, we went to buy soap and soap, as well as toothpaste and towels, and toothbrushes." You have to buy the rest, and the money is not enough to ask me. ”
As she spoke, she took out the money from the sale and counted fifty yuan to Han Yi, who took it and said okay, she wanted to buy some sanitary napkins, and she had to bring this when she went out.
After packing up, Changsheng immediately said: "Hanyi, bring the marriage certificate with you, and the officials will check it when the time comes." ”
Han Yi nodded and said yes, and found the red marriage certificate and put it in his travel bag. Changsheng opened his bag and took out a red velvet box with a pair of rings inside.
Changsheng looked at Han Yi and said with a smile: "Han Yi, this is a ring, your brother and I have already bought it, you can wear it and try it." ”
As he spoke, he took out a small one to bring to Han Yi, Han Yi pulled away his hand and complained in a low voice: "Why do you buy this? Buy me food, I won't be so particular, you put it first, I don't want to bring it now." ”
Seeing Hanyi rejecting himself, Changsheng was a little disappointed, and immediately smiled and said, "Okay, wear it when you want to bring it, remember that you are a married person, and you are my wife." ”
After saying that, he put the ring away, put it back in his travel bag, and took off the keychain from his body, which had two log ornaments on it, and braided them with two red ropes.
Changsheng took a string and put it in his hand, pointed to the words on it and said with a smile: "Hanyi, this is what your brother and I bought, and the two strings cost thirty yuan, which is engraved with your name, you take it and tie it to the travel bag, make a mark, don't take it wrong in the car." ”
The log was engraved with the words Yu Hanyi, Hanyi took it and nodded and said yes, and said with a smile: "I like this well, do you have yours too?"
Changsheng took another one and showed her the three words Shi Changsheng engraved on it, and after Han Yi read it, he turned around and tied the red rope to the travel bag.
