Chapter XVIII

"Brother and sister, this is a package that your eldest brother took from the People's Commune Brigade Department (similar to the current village committee), and it was sent by your brother-in-law. The pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info: "The sister-in-law handed over a big yellow package, which was tied with thread and sturdy.

Lin Qiu took the package and was a little curious, what Song Mo had sent him.

If there is anything unusual about this package, it is that the big package has four 50 stamps, a 20 stamp, and an 8 stamp, a total of two pieces, two corners, and eight points, which feels a little novel, just like sending a letter.

Lin Qiu took scissors to cut the rope and unwrapped the package with some excitement, what could it be? When disassembled, two pieces of clothing were revealed, a pink coat and a blue coat. It's just the right time to send it over, the weather is warm and cold, and it's just right to wear a coat to keep warm.

In addition, there are three red coats before, three coats are a little more, two are enough to change the clothes, this kind of coat must be impossible for the sister-in-law to wear, according to her own size, the sister-in-law is relatively plump, the sister-in-law should be about the same, two pieces for the sister-in-law to choose one to wear.

I just mentioned it casually, if he didn't send it, I'm afraid he would have forgotten it. Song Mo sent the clothes all of a sudden, which was quite surprising.

After taking out the two pieces of clothing, Lin Qiu saw that there was also a letter pressed underneath, Lin Qiu opened the envelope and took out the beige letter paper inside.

Lin Qiu:

Is the family okay? I miss you. Pick you up in half a year.

Author: Song Mo

24 February 1986

It was a succinct letter, the most concise I had ever received in my life, with a text of just fifteen words, excluding punctuation.

The two have been separated for more than half a month, and they still miss him in their hearts, but they will be reunited in less than half a year, and life is quite promising.

Lin Qiu wondered if he had to reply to him as well.

Lin Qiu looked up and saw the photo hanging on the wall, in the photo, he was smiling like a flower, Song Mo smiled a little unnaturally, probably because he didn't smile often, and he looked a little stiff. This photo was picked up by myself at the photo studio in the town ten days ago, and I went to the post office to send the marriage certificate.

Lin Qiu went to the bookstore again to buy some books, the library was hopeless, where would a library be opened in the town?

But I have to say that the price of the book is really expensive, Lin Qiu bought thirteen books and spent nearly twenty-four yuan and eight cents. These few books cost a teacher nearly half a month's salary, and Lin Qiu felt a little careful.

The family knows that firewood, rice, oil and salt are expensive, and so much money is enough to buy 31 catties of pork. If there was no passbook handed in by Song Mo, I was afraid that Lin Qiu would be reluctant to buy so many books, and I heard that many people in the bookstore complained that the price of books had risen sharply, and those who couldn't afford it were now even more unaffordable.

Later, when I went back, I remembered that Lin Qiu, as a teacher, must have a collection of books, so I went back to my parents' house again. The eldest brother Lin Chun and the second brother Lin Xia have gone out to do small business, and now they are doing the business of reselling clothes, which was a criminal thing before, but now the times are changing, and doing legal business is encouraged.

However, the two have a good eye, the style of clothing is very simple these years, if there are some fresh and good-looking styles, they will soon be snatched up, and business will be very good. In this world, it is easy to make money from "mouths" and "women".

Lin Qiu took out all the books in the boudoir, he didn't know if he didn't read it, he was shocked when he saw it, Lin Qiu actually had hundreds of books, and he had no way to get them back, so he had to find someone to help transport them back.

When he returned home and looked through it, he found that seven or eight of the thirteen books he bought had already been bought, and he asked his sister-in-law if he wanted it, and in the end, there were three books left that his sister-in-law already had, so Lin Qiu donated the old books to the school library, not that he was stingy and reluctant to give up those new books, but it was just too conspicuous to do so.

Lin Qiu wrote these small things in life that were as big as sesame mung beans, but he omitted the content that should not be written.

Lin Qiu thought about it and wrote about the previous fight between Huzi and others, but in the end, he ......

"Second sister-in-law, I heard that the second brother sent you a package, what are you?" Song Xiuxiu walked in, with a curious look in her eyes, what will the second brother send to his sister-in-law this time?

"Two coats, you come and pick one and see which one you like." Since the sister-in-law is here, let her pick a coat and leave.

Song Xiuxiu was amazed, the second brother's elm head has finally opened up now, and he knows how to please his daughter-in-law, "This is really different when you have a daughter-in-law, he never thought of sending beautiful clothes to my sister before." ”

Song Xiuxiu remembered that the second brother hadn't sent beautiful clothes to herself before marrying his sister-in-law, how could he ...... this time

"He must have helped me buy clothes in passing. Hmph......"

Lin Qiu didn't know how to pick it up, could it be that your second brother didn't remember to bring a beautiful dress to your sister until now, it was the aunt who thought of you, "Let's try it, which one looks good." ”

Song Xiuxiu is not a beauty in the traditional sense, at most she is a small jasper, this is still a point added to her by her fair and tender skin, but her smile is very bright and she has two cute little dimples, which makes people feel very comfortable.

A baby face looks small, I don't know if people will think she is a thirteen or fourteen-year-old girl, on weekdays, the children in the fifth grade of primary school have older than her, the age of children in this era is not the same, the youngest of the third grade I teach, the youngest is nine years old, and the oldest is twelve years old.

Blue is obviously not very suitable for her, Song Xiuxiu looks a bit like a child stealing adult clothes, pink is quite suitable, it looks pink and cute, and it looks good. In addition, the sister-in-law's eyes kept looking at the pink coat, obviously the pink coat was more in line with her heart, "Or the pink coat is better, do you like pink?" ”

Every girl has a princess dream in her heart, pink and tender, the color of the clothes is relatively monotonous at this time in most areas, it is difficult to see such a beautiful pink, Song Xiuxiu liked it at a glance, "Thank you, second sister-in-law, I like it, then I will take the pink one away." ”

A bright smile appeared on Song Xiuxiu's face, revealing two cute little dimples.

After Song Xiuxiu left, Lin Qiu wrote this interesting story again, and the sister-in-law complained that you were not good enough for her.

Lin Qiu stopped writing, counting the number of pages of the letter was already five or six, compared to Song Mo's letter The difference is really big, before sealing it with rice grains, she thought for a while and added: I miss you too.
