Chapter 63: Chinese New Year
In the cold wind, the mother and daughter whispered their visions for the future along the way, snuggling up to each other for warmth.
This scene was deeply imprinted in Wan Chuer's heart, in the days to come, no matter how difficult it was, every time she thought about it, her cold heart would become soft.
When they arrived at Wutong, Wan Chu'er and Bai Zhixi were about to freeze.
After the car stopped, Wan Chuer did not move, but stretched out her hand and began to pinch Bai Zhixi's leg, and Bai Zhixi's leg was numb.
"Leave me alone, just for a while. Bai Zhixi tried to stop her daughter.
Wan Chu'er said stubbornly: "Don't move." ”
Her hand gently pressed and pinched the acupuncture points on Bai Zhixi's legs, Jiang Kechu pressed her several times in her previous life, and every time she pressed it, it would not hurt her, Jiang Kechu explained to her seriously, pressing on the acupuncture points, it will soon relieve numbness and it will not hurt.
When Xiao Sun came up to move the tricycle, he saw this scene and said with a smile: "My legs are numb, rub it slowly, don't worry, this car will stop here tonight, when will you be okay, and when will you go." ”
Wan Chu'er was silent, but still said, "Thank you, Brother Sun." ”
She got up and took out ten yuan from her pocket and handed it to Xiao Sun, "I'm bothering you today." ”
"You're welcome, you're welcome, if you still want to go to Wanzhou, just come to me. Xiao Sun happily took the money and quickly carried the tricycle down with others.
Wan Chu'er squatted in front of Bai Zhixi and pressed her leg again, Bai Zhixi looked at her daughter lovingly, and said: "You did a good job, people are not related to us, and we should be grateful for helping us."
Do you know what's scariest in the world?"
Wan Chu'er lowered her head and didn't speak, her heart was still blocked, and Bai Zhixi's legs were cold.
Bai Zhixi stretched out her hand and pinned a lock of her daughter's hair behind her ear, and said: "The most terrible thing in the world is a cold and angry face, so don't be angry casually, you also told your mother that you have to suffer hardships to become a master, and now we only suffer a little bit, we should be happy, not angry." ”
Finally, Bai Zhixi felt that her legs were relaxed again, she pulled her daughter up, and slowly climbed down the car together.
At this time, it was almost ten o'clock, and the freight station was still brightly lit and busy.
The roar of the drivers, the workers are busy unloading.
Bai Zhi regretted: "Look, it's so late and cold, and there are still many people busy, but we can go home." ”
Wan Chu'er looked at the busyness around her, and finally said "um".
"Mom, I'll kick three wheels, you sit on it. ”
Bai Zhixi smiled: "It's better for me to pedal, it's warm to pedal the tricycle, aren't you exercising every day, just run back." ”
Wan Chu'er thought about it, thought it was a good idea, and said, "Okay." ”
On cold winter nights, there are hardly any human figures on the road, and the street lamps stretch the shadows of people for a long time.
Bai Zhixi pedaled three wheels, Wan Chu'er ran beside her, she sped up for a while, and quickly ran out of Bai Zhixi, and then returned, ran out again, and ran back again......
In just a short distance, she just ran out of sweat.
After seeing the locked door of the small courtyard, Wan Chu'er smiled and said, "We are finally back." ”
After a run, her mood suddenly brightened, and she suddenly understood in her heart that Bai Zhixi must have seen her unhappy, so she proposed to let her run.
Bai Zhixi is really the best mother in the world, why didn't she cherish it in her previous life, but fortunately, God treated her well and let her do it again.
After entering the house, Wan Chuer rushed to make the stove, and Bai Zhixi prepared to cook.
After the mother and daughter each had a bowl of hot pimple soup, the whole person was relieved.
They didn't want to do anything else, so they just poured all the money they earned today on the table.
The two of them sorted out the money with great interest, seeing Bai Zhixi's face smiling constantly, Wan Chuer also felt that the money in front of her had become cute.
"Excluding the cost, we earned six hundred today, fortunately I listened to you, otherwise this New Year would have been wasted. Bai Zhixi said excitedly, "Tomorrow you watch at home, and my mother will go out to collect wild goods." ”
She can't wait to go to Wanzhou again, and it's best to leave the day after tomorrow.
Wan Chu'er agreed with a smile, after today's sale, Bai Zhixi completely knows what New Year's goods Wanzhou people need, and the bargaining is much more powerful than her.
After making a plan for tomorrow, seeing that it was not too early, the mother and daughter washed up and lay down to sleep.
In the next few days, they got busy, first ran in various markets in Wutong County, collected the wild goods, then ran to Wanzhou, sold them in Wanzhou, and then returned to Wutong to collect wild goods.
Later, Wan Chuer had a whim, and ran directly to the next county with the white paper to collect wild goods, and Wutong was only an hour's drive to the next county, half a day was enough, so they collected a lot of wild things.
In addition to going to Wanzhou to sell New Year's goods, he also has to ensure the supply of pickles in Wutong County, which can be regarded as busy.
Later, Bai Zhixi simply gave Sister Liao more money, and asked Sister Liao to help buy vegetables and make pickles in addition to sending pickles, which can be regarded as fooling down the past few days.
After being busy in the past few days, Bai Zhixi and Wan Chu'er have lost five pounds each.
Although people have lost weight, their spirits are very good, because in the first ten days or so, they earned more than 3,000 by selling New Year's goods.
Before the end of the year, I got up early and went to bed late every day, and I ran to Wanzhou four times in total, and I came back from Wanzhou on the 29th day of the lunar month.
On the thirtieth day of the lunar month, the two slept until about ten o'clock in the morning, and only got up at the knock of Sister Liao's door.
Wutong County's large and small restaurants, hotels, grocery stores and everything are closed, and there is no need to send pickles during the Chinese New Year, Sister Liao is here to settle the bill.
Sent away Sister Liao, Bai Zhixi and Wan Chu'er cleaned the house thoroughly, and before dark, packed up toiletries, changed clothes and went to the bathhouse in the county town to take a New Year's bath.
Finally, I can easily spend a year.
On Chinese New Year's Eve, Bai Zhixi made a table of dishes, two big red lanterns were hung in the yard, the lively Spring Festival Gala was played on TV, and there was a crackling firecrackle outside from time to time.
Such a humane atmosphere made Wan Chuer in a trance.
How many years has she not participated in the excitement of the New Year like this, it seems that after leaving the Jiang family, she has never celebrated the New Year, in the south, every time she celebrates the New Year, she is in the rental house, alone and lonely, just read a book and pass away.
"It's time to eat dumplings, eat dumplings, and our family will be auspicious and lucky in the coming year. ”
Bai Zhixi beckoned her daughter to eat dumplings, Wan Chu'er came back to her senses, she glanced at Bai Zhixi, who was full of red face, and said with a smile: "Okay." ”
A wave of happiness flowed through my heart.
On the first day of the first lunar month, Wan Chuer originally planned to nest at home with Bai Zhixi, but Xiaobai came over early in the morning.
As soon as he entered the door, Xiaobai greeted Bai Zhi for the New Year.
"Aunt Bai, have a good New Year, and I wish you good luck. ”
Bai Zhixi didn't expect Xiaobai to come, and she was in a hurry for a while, taking candy and preparing red envelopes.
Xiaobai is also a junior no matter how she says it, and she greets her for the New Year, and she has to give a red envelope.
