"Ruoruo, are you at home?"

Lin Yumei shouted opposite Lin Ruoruo's house.

Lin Ruoruo came out when she heard the voice: "Yumei, why are you here." ”

"My mother asked me to come over, and my mother asked me to ask you if you want to go to the market tomorrow."

Go to market? She has never left the Pingxi Brigade since she came to this world, so it's good to go out and have a look, just to buy some materials to make whitening cream.

"Okay, what time are you going tomorrow?"

"My mother said that she wanted to catch the ox cart in the market, and she had to go early, and she would leave at six o'clock tomorrow morning."

There is no entertainment tonight, although the village is electrified, but the incandescent lights are really dim now, Lin Ruoruo doesn't like to do things in such an environment anymore, he usually goes to bed early, and six o'clock is not particularly early.

"Okay, where are we going to meet tomorrow?"

"Just go to the village, and Uncle Daqiang will be waiting with the ox cart when the time comes."

"Okay, I got it."

"Then I'll go back first."

"Slow down when you go back."

"Good"

……

Lin Ruoruo took advantage of the fact that it was not dark and went to the uncle's house next door and told the aunt about going to the market.

Xu Fengqin heard that she was going to the market, thought about it for a while, and decided to go with her tomorrow, her niece had never gone out alone, she was not at ease alone, so she went out to see it with her.

The next day, she got up early in the morning, and it was only half past five after cooking, and then she went to the next door, where her aunt was eating, and saw her: "Come, come in and sit, and eat together." ”

"Thank you, auntie, I've eaten it."

Xu Fengqin: "Have you really eaten it?" ”

Lin Ruoruo knew that the eldest aunt was afraid that she would not want to eat her family's food and deliberately said this, so she asked such a question.

"I've really eaten it, if I hadn't eaten it, I wouldn't have been polite to my aunt."

"Okay, I'll eat quickly, you sit and wait for me."

Xu Fengqin said as he picked up the bowl and drank a bowl of porridge that was not too thick, and then ate a multigrain cake after a while.

After eating, she picked up a handful of water in the basin in the courtyard, washed her face, and said, "Let's go!" ”

As for the dishes and chopsticks, there are daughters-in-law and granddaughters at home, and people who can work are indispensable.

When the two arrived at the village together, there were already four or five waiting there, and Lin Daqiang, who was driving the car, was also there.

Xu Fengqin greeted the villagers with a smile, and after a while, Lin Yumei and her mother came over together.

The people were almost here, and the time had arrived, so Lin Daqiang arranged for everyone to get on the bus.

The ox cart was not very big, there were seven or eight people sitting, Lin Ruoruo only felt very crowded, but it was good to have an ox cart, after all, it would take two or three hours to walk from the Pingxi brigade to the nearest market.

So it's uncomfortable, so it's uncomfortable! It's always good to walk past.

The ox cart was driving slowly, the road was not very smooth, the potholes were very bumpy, but looking at the people on the ox cart, most of them didn't feel anything, and there was still talk and laughter.

In addition to the villagers of the Pingxi Brigade on the ox cart, there were also two educated youths.

Lin Ruoruo is a little curious about the educated youth, after all, the educated youth is also a characteristic of this era, and she is still a little curious about the educated youth.

At first, the ox cart was just chatting about the parents, but I don't know when, and the chatting turned sour.

“…… Chen Xiaoli and Xu Hui, both of you are twenty this year! It's been four years since I came to our Pingxi Brigade, and it's time to start a family, the eldest lady said something unpleasant, you probably won't be able to go back to the city, it's better to find a good family while you're young, or you'll be a little older, but you'll become an old girl that no one wants. ”

The person who said this was Zhang Dahua, a famous long-tongued woman in the village, who not only had a long tongue, but also often did not use her brain, and it was a routine operation to offend people when she spoke.

It was not unusual for these words to come out of her mouth, but they did make the faces of the two educated youths a little ugly.

Xu Hui is a person who doesn't like to be angry, and when she heard this, she immediately choked back: "Auntie also knows that this is not good, since it is not good, then say less." ”

Zhang Dahua was suddenly unhappy when she heard that the little girl's family dared to talk back: "I'm so kind, you don't know how to appreciate it, no wonder you still keep it, I see who will marry an old girl like you in the future." ”

Xu Hui looked back with an ugly face: "If I don't get married, I won't bother you if I get married or not, let's take care of my own family's affairs!" ”

As soon as these words came out, the people in the ox cart couldn't help but laugh.

Zhang Dahua has a daughter in her family, eighteen this year, not very old, but in the village, girls as big as her are all talking about kissing, but the girl of Zhang Dahua's family is not a sound, not that Zhang Dahua is reluctant to give up her daughter, and wants to stay for two more years, because her daughter likes to eat the most, and she is surprisingly lazy, and she has seen each other several times, but she has not married.

The entire Pingxi Brigade knew about this, but Zhang Dahua didn't think there was anything, but he felt that it was because other people's eyes were not good.

Xu Hui's words can be regarded as poking Zhang Dahua's pain.

No matter how good she feels about herself, she knows what others say about her daughter.

Zhang Dahua said in a weird manner: "The little girl's mouth is quite powerful, who would marry such a mouthful and unforgiving, and she can't marry it." ”

Xu Fengqin, as the captain's daughter-in-law, also watched the excitement, and felt that it was almost over, and if she continued to talk about it, she was afraid that she would have to fight.

"Don't say a few words from the Degui family, an elder, don't speak too badly."

Xu Fengqin, the captain's daughter-in-law, spoke quite usefully, and after saying this, both sides stopped.

Speaking of which, in this society where the collective is the unit of production, Xu Fengqin, the daughter-in-law of the captain, is still very enviable, after all, the captain of a brigade can decide many things.

For example, whether the work is easy or not.

If there is no need, no one will offend Xu Fengqin.

So what she said worked well.

After being quiet for a while, there was a new topic on the ox cart, and this time the topic was finally normal.

Lin Ruoruo got down from the ox cart, Lin Yumei pulled her and said, "I want to go to the supply and marketing cooperatives with my mother to buy something, do you want to go together?" ”

Lin Ruoruo also wanted to go to see the supply and marketing cooperative, Xu Fengqin listened next to her, and said, "Let's go together, it just so happens that I also want to buy something." ”

There are many people who want to go to the supply and marketing cooperatives to buy things, after all, there are no things in this year, and you can buy something if you go early.

So Xu Fengqin took Lin Ruoruo, Lin Yumei and her mother, and the four of them went to the supply and marketing cooperative.

When they arrived at the supply and marketing cooperative, Lin Yumei and her mother wanted to buy some needlework and a piece of cloth.

told the salesman, and then the salesman said lightly: "There is no cloth." ”

Lin Yumei looked at the cloth on the shelves and was dumbfounded: "Obviously, there is." ”

The salesman was impatient: "I said no, no, there is no cloth, that cloth has already been bought." As he spoke, he threw a box of needlework onto the counter: "The needlework you want, a dime." ”

Lin Yumei's mother didn't say anything, and paid to pull her daughter aside.

Xu Fengqin went to the counter and said a few things, but the salesperson still looked like he was on top, and he simply gave everything.

Lin Ruoruo looked at the things on the container, there was nothing she wanted, and she didn't buy anything.

However, Xu Fengqin looked a little uncomfortable in her heart, thinking about her situation, and bought her two hair ropes that girls like more now.
