Chapter 40: Preparation

In this case, Wang Lamei no longer wants to pay for food stamps and money.

Zhou Xiaoquan didn't let him go, "Auntie, you give us me and my sister's indicators for this month, and I'll accompany her to the countryside." ”

In the face of Wang Lamei's angry gaze, Zhou Xiaoquan showed a completely different calmness, "My sister is injured like this, I don't worry about her going to the countryside alone, I have to take care of her in the past." When we went, we had to pay food to the canteen, so we couldn't eat and drink for nothing! ”

"What are you going to do?! You don't have to do the work at home?! Who is going to sweep the cinders and pick up the bark when you go? What do you cook and cook? As soon as Wang Lamei heard that she was going to get the food stamps, she immediately quit.

Zhou Xiaoquan grabbed Mrs. Wang's beating and did not let go, the mother and son fought for a long time, Wang Lamei was afraid of the second uncle, afraid that Zhou Xiaoquan would say something that should not be said, so she had to give in and let him go to the countryside with him, but she was only willing to give her sister and brother twenty catties of chaff.

Let's not talk about whether it is enough or not, during the Chinese New Year, Wang Lamei bought so many New Year's goods, so she gave them sisters and brothers to eat chaff?

Zhou Xiaoquan was going to fight again, Zhou Xiaoan grabbed him and shook his head, now is not the time to fight for this thing.

The sisters and brothers went out to buy grain with the 20 catties of food stamps given by Wang Lamei, and asked the second uncle to "talk" with Wang Lamei at home, and then Wang Lamei took the second uncle to the store to buy cloth.

Before going out, I heard Wang Lamei almost begging to call "second uncle", but Zhou Xiaoling, who has always been exquisite, has been lying on the bed silently without saying a word, without the slightest intention of relieving Wang Lamei.

Maybe, she also has complaints about Wang Lamei letting Mrs. Wang beat her, right?

After leaving the house, Zhou Xiaoan asked Zhou Xiaoquan to buy dried sweet potatoes, and she went to the mine, "I want to go far away, I have to explain to Sister Lao." "Don't let her go, something will go wrong in the dormitory.

Zhou Xiaoquan was not at ease, so he sent his sister to the gate of the mine, and explained that he would wait for him to pick up the grain after buying the grain, and then hurriedly ran to the grain store.

Zhou Xiaoan saw that he had run away, turned to a small alley next to him, took out a new set of military quilts from the spare parts cabinet in the supermarket duty room, and thought that Zhou Xiaoquan would also use it, so he took out an extra quilt.

In order to save money in the supermarket, the bedding used in the duty room is the cheapest and most durable, and the military quilt and plaid cotton sheets are standard, and they are not inconsistent with this era.

Probably because it is cheap, they are all purchased in bulk, there are several sets of brand new ones in the spare cabinet, there are more than a dozen bed sheets, and even more than a dozen pillow towels.

If it weren't for being close to his grandparents since he was a child, the children of Zhou An'an's age might not know what those big towels are for.

After solving the bedding, Zhou Xiaoan took out another thirty catties of cornmeal, wrapped two or three catties of dried sweet potatoes, thought about it, and unpacked the bag of sugar again, and wrapped it in retro oiled paper from a time-honored counter in the dim sum area.

The second uncle's family has old people and children, Zhou Xiaoan wrapped a few catties of oil tea noodles and a pack of large round biscuits, but unfortunately there is no candy area in the space, it would be better if you didn't bring a pound of fruit candy.

Tomorrow is Chinese New Year's Eve, the siblings can't really just eat chaff, Zhou Xiaoan took a roast chicken, and packed twenty large meat buns, and didn't dare to take anything else, or there should be no explanation.

She didn't dare to take out all these things for others to see.

used two baskets of white checkered sheets to beat two big burdens, Zhou Xiaoan tried hard, didn't move it, and then worked harder, almost dragging the big burden down......

There was no way, Zhou Xiaoan could only run to the guard room for help, and the doorkeeper recognized her for a long time before he recognized her from Zhou Xiaoan's shabby clothes.

With her still swollen face and the bruises on her face, the uncle couldn't recognize her.

Zhou Xiaoan didn't hide it, and told the uncle that he was beaten by Mrs. Wang.

The affairs of the Zhou family and the Wang family, everyone in the mine knows, why should she hide it for them? It's good that the reputation of the Wang family is bad! Anyway, what is bad will not affect Zhou Xiaoquan's daughter-in-law!

However, with Wang Lamei's strength in eating inside and outside for more than ten years, it will not be easy for the boys of the Zhou family to marry a daughter-in-law in the future.

Zhou Xiao'an did this not only to damage the reputation of the Wang family, but also to reduce the urban population on a large scale in the future, and the mine will also reduce a group of workers with heavy family burdens to return to the countryside to farm.

So Zhou Xiaoan deliberately chatted with the uncle in the communication room at the door for a while, and put the big burden to him, before going to the union to find Sister Lao.

When Sister Lao saw Zhou Xiao'an, who was injured, she heard her tell her about the whole story, and she was so angry that she slapped the table and jumped to her feet to scold her mother!

When Sister Lao was engaged in underground work before liberation, she set up a small stall near the mining area to sell braised vegetables and big-name tea, and it was common for her to scold and quarrel in the street.

It can be seen how deep Mrs. Wang's annoying kung fu is.

"Xiao An, why didn't you come to the eldest sister earlier! I'm sure I'll have to take care of that! She is engaged in feudal patriarchy! It is the persecution of working women! What happened to the elders? Elders can't beat people so casually! We are good sisters of the working class, we can't let people be bullied like this! ”

Zhou Xiaoxin calmly appeased Sister Lao, and didn't really expect her to complain about her grievances and take revenge on Mrs. Wang.

Although Sister Lao is telling the truth, she is only injured, she looks serious, and she is not disabled and not hospitalized, it is her own grandmother, Wang Lamei and Wang Lamei defend it, and Sister Lao has no special reason to go to Mrs. Wang to theorize.

Moreover, even if she goes to educate Mrs. Wang, can she change it?

It's just about to be used on the blade, Sister Lao's kindness and favor towards her can't be wasted so much, she has to continue to increase Sister Lao's good impression of her, and then seek benefits for her future life and work, a fool is wasted on Mrs. Wang!

Sister Lao was really moved by Zhou Xiaoan's kindness and reasoning, praised her fiercely, and took the initiative to plan for what would happen after she left:

"Don't worry, the eldest sister in the dormitory will keep an eye on you, no one can snatch it, it must be yours, you don't have to come back early, you can live in it after spending fifteen or sixteen at a relative's house!"

"Later, the eldest sister will take you to the financial department, there are only a few days left this month, let's advance your salary this month, and go to someone for the New Year, you can't have a penny in your hand!"

"I'll give you another certificate, go to the street and transfer your grain relationship to the factory first, or the food stamps and non-staple food stamps will be taken away by the old Han family next month, what will you eat when you come back?"

"This time, we have to treat the old Han family well! When you go back, you have to take care of your own wages and food stamps! ”

……

After finishing the errand, Sister Lao took Zhou Xiaoan's hand and told her for a long time, and sent her out of the union gate for a long time before going back, as soon as Zhou Xiaoan turned around, she listened to her gossip with the passing workers, "This old Wang family is not a thing......

When she came to the gate, Zhou Xiaoquan was already waiting for her, and took out the two big burdens from the guard room, and before Zhou Xiaoan could explain, Zhou Xiaoquan hurriedly pulled her to whisper:

"Sister, these are all given by my uncle's comrades-in-arms? You can hide it, don't take it all out and show it to others, and then we will show the whole stuffing again, it will be bad! ”
