Old man Zhang sent the carriage back, which relieved the two people in the house, Li Yanhong only felt that he had finally come back to life, and Erchun also got off the kang and went to the outhouse, helping his grandfather get hot water to wash his face, and when the three of them sat on the kang to eat, it was snowing outside again.

"It's getting colder and colder, and many people in the village haven't gone to pick up branches, so they're going to suffer these days." Old man Zhang took a sip of wine, and the whole person came back to life, and then ate a mouthful of hot dishes and sat on the hot kang, not to mention how comfortable it was.

"Master, tomorrow you take the time to go to the supply and marketing cooperatives to buy some plastic sheeting back, cover the windows, originally in the autumn should have made some grass on the roof, but now you can only last until tomorrow autumn in the future, such a day can also freeze things, our pigs don't eat for long, I think I will kill it." After a tired day, although hungry, Erchun has no appetite.

It's like you're too hungry to eat.

She only ate one cake, drank half a bowl of vegetable soup, and then put away her chopsticks.

"I'll go tomorrow and ask you to make the cotton shoes for your Uncle Li, have you made them?" Old man Zhang looked comfortable because of the wine, "Get me more cotton tomorrow and help you make cotton clothes for Uncle Li, our winter here can be cold, and I can't stand it if I wear less." ”

"No, the sister of the Wang family sent cotton pants at night." The corners of Li Yanhong's eyes swept to Erchun and he only ate so much, and his brows wrinkled invisibly, "If you have food stamps, buy some noodles and rice." ”

Old man Zhang is a man who doesn't care about his family, he has a salary every month, and the team distributes food in the autumn, and he never calculates how to live, when he heard Li Yanhong mention this, he naturally nodded, "Yes, buy some more fine grain, and tomorrow find out the cloth tickets and grain cloth at home and bring them to me." ”

Erchun felt sorry for the money, "Now that I can eat enough, it is a good life to eat coarse grains every day like ours, and I am not from the city, so I still forget about what fine grains to eat." ”

She was going to go to the city, and the money had to be spent lavishly like her grandfather, what could she save.

"Otherwise, tomorrow I will grind the sticky rice on the team, wrap some sticky bean buns, grind more, and keep the sticky cakes if you don't need them, and eat them with big ballasts, I and your Uncle Li can eat whatever you want, you are still young, you can't eat this all day." Old man Zhang knew that his granddaughter was in charge, and he would not change it, so he could only change it from the side.

"Our family's grain can be eaten until the team distributes the grain, look at some families in the village, as soon as the spring comes, they start to eat potatoes at a meal, and they will distribute the grain until the autumn, our family is so good." Erchun persuaded his grandfather and took a step back, "Then listen to you, grind all the sticky rice tomorrow, and then get you some cloth tickets to buy some cotton and cloth back." ”

"I don't have to make this cotton coat, and I don't have anything to do in winter, so I can freeze if I stay in the house." People's grandchildren are reluctant to spend money, and where would Li Yanhong be cheeky to ask for other people's things.

Seeing this, Li Yanhong's eyes also flashed with a touch of sadness, thinking that he grew up eating hundreds of meals when he was a child, and he relied on his own hands, and later followed the army, and the more he lived, the more he went back, and he even needed others to help him live.

"You have to have clothes to wear when you don't leave the house, don't worry, you don't have a piece of clothing at home." Old man Zhang made the final decision.

Erchun didn't care about this, got up and went to the cabinet to take out the cotton shoes made for Li Yanhong and put them beside him, "It's also the first time I've made shoes, so you can wear them if you do it well." ”

"Look at what you think of my Lao Li, you can make shoes for my Lao Li, it's too late for my Lao Li to be grateful, if you still dislike it, you don't have a conscience." Li Yanhong put down his chopsticks, picked up the cotton shoes and tried them at that time, "Hey, the size is just right, the second girl is so skillful." ”

Old man Zhang heard that his granddaughter was praised, and his face was the same, "That's it, my granddaughter Zhang Yuejin, I don't believe that I can't find a good family." Chun'er, your eldest sister and Tiezhu's affairs were only heard at night when the ox cart was returned, don't think about it, you must find a better one for you, and when you come back, you meet your aunt, and she says that she will help you find it. ”

Knowing that he couldn't hide this, Old Man Zhang took the opportunity to say it.

Erchun smiled, "Master, it's all in the past, don't worry about me, I'm fine." I'm not in a hurry to find it now, I have to take my time, don't be in a hurry to marry me off and marry another bad one. ”

"Okay, then let's look for it slowly." The granddaughter is not sad, and she can still take the initiative to put forward her own ideas, and the old man Zhang is relieved.

Li Yanhong saw that Erchun really didn't care, and he was inexplicably happy in his heart, "Yes, look for it slowly." ”

I just wanted to say that if he was still in the army, he wouldn't be picked with Erchun, but thinking about his current appearance, he swallowed the words when he came to his mouth.

Erchun still wants to go to the city to develop, so that it will take at least three years to go to the city, she is now twenty-two, three years later will be twenty-six, it is more difficult to find the right person when she is older, but you can also find it, if you look for it in the countryside, you may not go to the city with her at that time, so it is better not to find the right person and not get married at the moment.

Erchun also understands that she is now telling this idea to her grandfather, and grandpa will definitely not agree, because grandpa will feel unrealistic, but she has lived a new life, knowing that since 73 years, the situation is good, and many people can rebel against the city, and it will not be difficult to go to the city to do business at that time, but grandpa doesn't know, so she said that grandpa will not agree.

I can only think about this in my own heart, and then plan it slowly.

The next day, before Old Man Zhang went out, Sun Zhi came to the door, Sun Zhi smiled and talked to Erchun, Erchun didn't pay attention to her, Sun Zhi didn't feel embarrassed, and went to talk to Old Man Zhang by himself.

"Uncle, I came here today to borrow some cloth tickets."

"Borrowing a cloth ticket? If you don't have a festival every year, what are you doing with a cloth ticket? Old man Zhang drooped his eyelids, didn't even look at her, sat on the edge of the kang and smoked.

Erchun cleaned up the north kang, and when he heard his grandfather's words, he couldn't help but hook the corners of his lips, grandpa knew what he was borrowing cloth for, so he asked like this, thinking that grandpa was coming out for himself, Erchun couldn't help but be happy.

In the countryside, before getting married, you have to have a ceremony, and you naturally have to make two sets of clothes for the man, and one person only has two feet of cloth tickets a year, so the family generally wants to do happy events, which has become a problem to borrow cloth tickets, and it is useless to borrow cloth tickets, and you still have to use money to buy cloth tickets.

Old man Zhang has clothes and bedding every year, which is enough for his grandfather and grandson to wear, and Erchun can't do anything, so the cloth tickets on the team have been saved over the years, needless to say, everyone in the village knows it.
