Chapter 67: Really Competent

Amy followed Wu Siyu into the house, only to find that the two adults were not at home.

"Sister, wait a while, my parents went to work, not far away, I'll call them."

Amy didn't have to wait long for the two to return, grabbing her hand and thanking her for a while.

"It's really thanks to you, otherwise we wouldn't know what to do."

"That's it, you need a ticket to buy everything now, and the two of us don't have much income now, if it weren't for the medicine and food you took, I definitely wouldn't be getting better so quickly."

The couple were very enthusiastic and said that they would keep Amy for dinner.

"No, no, I'm here with other people, and I've made an appointment to go back together later, this time I just want to see if my aunt's health is better." By the way, these are all good for the body, the aunt was sick and weak before, so she has to make up for it. ”

Amy took out the brown sugar and malt cream from the bag and placed them on the table.

"No, no, no, this thing is too expensive, you can keep it for yourself."

Wu Yang refused to ask for it, and Amy hurriedly said, "This is specially bought for you, isn't it a waste if you don't eat it?" And I didn't give this thing for free, isn't there something else to ask you? ”

She knew that in this era, if she didn't want anything to be good to people, people would be defensive in their hearts, so she turned her eyes and thought of a rhetoric.

Sure enough, when Wu Yang heard this, he no longer shirked, but said: "You are the great benefactor of our family, if there is anything you can help with, just say it." It's just that we are in this situation, and I don't know if we can help. ”

Amy smiled and waved her hand, "It's not a big deal, it's just that I remember you said that you and Auntie used to be teachers, so I want to ask if you can still find high school textbooks." ”

At this time, there were not so detailed high school textbooks, only a set of college entrance examination mathematics, physics and chemistry review materials, as far as she knew, the year the college entrance examination was resumed, this set of materials was a review book.

She'd already managed to get a copy before, but she wasn't quite complete, so she wanted to ask if she could find a complete one.

When Wu Yang heard this, he hurriedly looked around.

"At the time of the accident, most of our family's belongings were gone, especially books. But I know of a place where you can walk out and turn left, and there's a big scrap yard with a lot of books. ”

Amy's eyes jumped, "Scrap yard? ”

Wu Yang smiled bitterly and said helplessly: "It's not, no one wants to study hard now, and those books have become waste." But the guy at the scrapyard seems to have studied before, so he secretly packed up the books he received and kept them. ”

It stands to reason that he should go, but his identity is not good, don't look back and burden his benefactor again, so he didn't mention this stubble.

Amy didn't expect to get such an unexpected surprise, so she hurriedly wrote it down.

After the two exchanged two words, Wu Yang got to the point.

"Didn't I tell you before, there are still a few people I know who still have that thing at home, will you change it this time?"

As soon as Amy heard it, she knew that he was talking about antiques, and she thought about it, antiques could be put in the pocket supermarket, and she didn't worry about being discovered.

It's just that if someone says that it leaks out of your mouth, it's a fatal thing.

Therefore, she did not immediately agree to come down.

"Uncle, you also know the current situation, although I want to help everyone, but the risk is too great. Well, for your sake, you can ask someone you trust what they want, and then make an appointment to meet somewhere so safe. ”

It is not appropriate to meet at Wu Yang's house every time, and if you go back and forth more times, you will definitely be seen by the neighbors, and then things will be a big deal.

Although Wu Yang felt pity, he also understood.

Now that the wind is tight, it's not easy to do, and he can't hurt his benefactor, so he quickly agreed.

However, this time when Wu Yang took out a jade snuff box, Amy still changed it.

It's just that their family's food is enough for the time being, so she changed them for twenty catties of oil, five pieces of soap, four towels, and two cotton cloths.

At this time, not to mention the ticket to buy these things, it is especially difficult to grab them.

Moreover, the oil is still only a little bit of a ration every month for eating public meals, which is not enough to eat at all, let alone Wu Yang's family.

The soap is used quickly, but those workers only have half a piece every month, and Wu Yang's family does not have it at all, so they can only rub it with water a few more times, not to mention that it can't be cleaned.

So they were all very happy and repeatedly told Amy to come back to their house next time she came.

Amy put the jade snuffbox in the supermarket, then took a towel and wrapped it around her neck, covered her mouth, and then put on a straw hat, and after confirming that others could not see her clearly, she went to the black market with two catties of fine grain on her back.

There were people coming and going on the black market, and no one was selling, but everyone would come over and ask if they saw something on their backs.

Everyone is afraid of being discovered, so be extra careful.

It was still early before the agreed time with Aunt Li, so Amy was not in a hurry, so she just stood there and waited.

Soon, a man who had been going back and forth several times came up.

"Comrade, do you have fine grain?"

Amy didn't speak, and directly opened the cloth bag to show him.

The man's eyes lit up when he saw that it was white flour.

"How?"

"One pound of flour for four pounds of coarse grains, no tickets."

Amy's change method was actually a bit of a loss at this time, but she didn't want to delay here for too long, so she chose a more compromise amount.

Sure enough, the man didn't even tell the price, and immediately said that he wanted it all.

"You wait a minute, I'll come with something."

While waiting for him to arrive, Amy met a few more people who were not short of money depending on their clothes.

"Comrade, do you have soap?"

"Comrade, do you have towels and sugar?"

Amy didn't waste any chance, and when she came across what seemed to be sincere, she asked them to go to the alley to the east later.

After coming and going, she went back with an extra ten yuan and eight catties of coarse grain.

This year, pork is only 7 cents and 2 pounds, and ten yuan can buy a lot of things.

In addition, Amy also went to the scrap station that Wu Yang said.

The young man at the scrap yard wore glasses, and he looked like a reader.

When Amy asked him if he had any books, he still wouldn't admit it.

"Comrade, it is against the rules to collect books, please don't talk nonsense."

Amy was helpless and took a bar of soap out.

"A set of soap for a set of high school textbooks."

It is said to be a set, but it is actually a review material for mathematics, physics and chemistry.

Amy was still thinking about getting three sets at first, one set for herself, one set for Mingke, and one set for Zhou Yize, as for Niuniu, she was young and easy to leak her mouth, so she would just talk about the knowledge points again when she read it.

But in a place like Mao'er Village, one set of books is very eye-catching, let alone three sets.

But these books had to find a way to get through the road and couldn't be thrown away in the supermarket, so in the end she decided to just have one set.

And soap is hard to buy, but everyone needs it, otherwise the clothes at home will not be able to be washed.

Therefore, Amy is not afraid that she will not be able to change at all.

The man was also frightened by her generosity, and for fear that she would regret it, he hurriedly came out with a bundle of books from under the bed in the room.

"Here, it's all here, pick it yourself."

Amy checked that there were no problems, took the missing books, smiled and gave him the soap, and he quickly put it away.

After changing these things, she went to a supply and marketing cooperative, queuing up to grab the cloth.

Wu Yang's face in the supermarket is okay for them, but it is too eye-catching in Mao'er Village, and she has to buy some cloth that doesn't look so good.

But that's it, Amy almost didn't grab it, but fortunately, the money brought by the aunt in front of her was not enough, so it was her turn.

After Amy had bought everything, she went to meet up with Aunt Lee.

When she went, she carried the books in her bag, and the cloth and coarse grains in her hands.

The cloth must be taken back to make clothes for Niuniu and Mrs. Wang, and it is impossible not to be clear.

Not to mention the food, everyone is waiting to see Amy's jokes, and if there is food to eat suddenly, there will definitely be suspicions, so it is better to let people know in the first place.

Aunt Li was shocked to see that she had bought so many things.

"Xiaomi, where did you get these things?"

Amy handed over the brown sugar she had promised to buy for her, and said with a sweet smile: "I went home for the Chinese New Year and got some cloth stamps and food stamps for me." Isn't this Grandma Wang kind enough to take me in and kill a chicken for me to eat? I just thought about making clothes for her and Niuniu. ”

She didn't explain much about the grain, because the entire Mao'er Village knew that Mrs. Wang's family was about to run out of food.

Aunt Li didn't ask, and happily took the brown sugar and praised her vigorously.

"You really have the ability, many people here haven't grabbed brown sugar, but you really grabbed it. Also, you have such a good heart, you actually make clothes for Mrs. Wang, what a good boy. ”

Aunt Li is an honest country woman, very good, and once secretly helped the princess and their sons.

However, in her opinion, it is really not easy to think of buying cloth to make clothes, after all, there are not many families in the whole village who can make a new dress all year round.

Thinking about it like this, Aunt Li felt in her heart that Amy was different from other educated youths, she had a conscience and great ability, and she wanted to walk around more with her in the future.

Amy didn't know how many words of kung fu Aunt Li thought so much, she only took out dry food and distributed it to her.

"I brought something to eat, you keep it for yourself."

Aunt Li hurriedly refused, she was embarrassed to take advantage of this child.

But Amy insisted: "Thanks to you for taking care of me along the way, this is all as it should be, otherwise I would not have given me a certificate if I came alone, wouldn't the village chief?" So take it Auntie, or I won't eat it." ”

This was said beautifully, Aunt Li smiled and took the dry food, and liked this girl even more.

"You, it's just that your temperament is too good, and others always bully you. It's not that my aunt likes to chew the root of her tongue behind her back, but I'm really afraid that you will be deceived at a young age. Although Liu Jianfang is also an educated youth, it is really unbearable to do those things, you have to be on guard in the future.

Yesterday, you can see that you have a little brain, and it is clear that she deliberately wants to fix you, don't be stupid and be bullied and don't know it. ”

Amy's smile grew sweeter when she heard this.

"I know, Auntie, you're so good to me."
