Chapter 7 New Things

The next day, Lele and her mother came to the township, they were very blind before they came, and they didn't care if their father was on a business trip? When he wasn't at home, he came to town......

When I arrived downstairs in my father's dormitory, I happened to meet Aunt Qin, who told them that my father was working in the office. This made Lele feel very lucky, his father happened to be in the town on an errand that day, and he didn't go on a business trip. Or didn't they run for nothing? Uh, actually, you can't say that you ran away in vain, at least you can look at your brother and sister, right?

I followed my mother to the office to find my father, and my mother told him about the rice noodle machine. Dad listened, put down the work in his hand without saying a word, and took them to see the only one in the township agricultural machinery station, which couldn't be sold!

One reason is that it is too expensive; The second is that everyone has only heard about it. In their remote town, who would spend a huge sum of a few hundred dollars to buy a big machine back? It's okay to make money; If you can't make money, isn't it like buying a bunch of scrap metal to go home?

When they arrived at the agricultural machinery station, the staff there were very enthusiastic about the operation of the machine, and my mother listened carefully......

Huang Lele thought: This is probably because no one really wants to hear what they have to say, and the people who come are probably looking at the price and leaving, how can anyone have such a sincere attitude as his mother to ask for advice!

Before buying the machine, my mother said:

"I can't believe that you are talking about the theory now, but the actual operation is true. If you send someone to show us the actual operation for two days, then I can pay half of the money first. If it doesn't work, I'll quit the machine; If this is true, I will immediately pay you half of the other money. First of all, you'll have to lend me the machine and the technician to take back for a few days. If the machine is honest in the next few days, I will pay the other half of the money. Otherwise, you return the money to me, and I will send the machine back to you. ”

The staff of the agricultural machinery station readily agreed to my mother's request.

This、This machine probably hasn't been cared for since it was brought back.,Plus Dad seems to be in charge of this piece.。 Therefore, although my mother's request is not harsh, under normal circumstances, people will not agree.

Mom paid half of the deposit and signed a tentative agreement with them. He said that he would go back to take care of the house so that he could install the machine, and he had to pull the wires and install the electric switch.

So the two sides agreed to send the machine to the designated place in their village in three days.

The most rare thing is that today, Dad can magically take out 50 yuan to give Mom!

For Lele, this is really a magical thing!

Dad's monthly salary is only about 30 yuan, and his brother and sister follow him to study in the town. The side dishes are grown by the sisters themselves, a small part of the firewood used for cooking is cut by the sisters on the weekend, and the sisters also raise a few chickens to lay eggs (the chickens' food is some vegetable skins picked up in the vegetable field and earthworms turned out on the edge of the vegetable field). But those daily necessities, firewood, rice, oil, salt, sauce and vinegar, and meat still cost money. Plus Dad also smokes......

In short, she had the impression that her father was very poor! At least during the holidays, she never saw her father come home from shopping or anything! All the things in the house are taken care of by my mother! This life is another life, and even this impression has been subverted by my father!

After following Mom and Dad out of the farm machine, Dad said that he would add vegetables to them today. When her mother said that she would go back to cooking first, she took her hand and said to her:

"Then you go back first, Lele and I will go grocery shopping."

Lele remembers that she and her father are very spicy in their family, and they can eat spicy food more than the other.

No, Dad asked people to weigh five cents of hot sauce (raw chili peppers are planted in the vegetable plot at home, and there is no need to buy them again.) I bought a pound of sand bone soup Huaishan soup, two pounds of pork belly to make braised pork, soybean sprouts, and half a roast duck......

Soon after buying groceries, when I followed my father back, my father suddenly pointed to the food stall on the street and asked me:

"Lele, do you have anything you want to eat?"

Lele said in her heart: She wants to eat everything there, but she knows that their family should not be so extravagant at present, and spend this extra money to buy those snacks to eat. Then he said to his father,

"Thank you Dad! I don't want to eat those snacks today, though. Buy it for me next time! ”

"Then, why don't you give you two cents today, and when you want to eat it, go buy it yourself, okay?"

"Good! Thank you Dad! ”

She remembers that her father treated her very well in her previous life, and after she entered elementary school, she increased her pocket money from two cents a day to five cents, one dime, and two cents. At this time, two cents can buy a lot of things! She'd better save it for when she needs it! I can't let my sisters know about this, so I have to hold my breath, hey!

In her impression: the third sister has always been indignant about her father's partiality, and she doesn't like to talk, but she loves to write her mood as a diary, and she just writes it; I also put the diary in the bookshelf. I also accidentally saw the diary of the third sister when I was flipping through the bookshelf, and after she went to junior high school, she even wrote out who a female classmate in their class had a crush on, who liked whom, and who was good with whom, and there was enough gossip. The second sister is the opposite, she says everything, the east family, the west family, as long as she sees, hears, and even imagines, she can tell the reason.

I don't blame my brother for saying to her in his previous life: Marry a wife, but don't marry a gossipy woman like the second sister and the third sister. That kind of person is in your ears and keeps talking behind your back, it's really unbearable! So Lele, you have to remember, don't become like your sisters......

Collect the money, and don't care about Dad's smiling expression, we are thick-skinned, so that we will not forget what we have to do because of other people's jokes.

The streets of their town are really small, very small, from the street to the end of the street, less than 400 meters. When they returned, they had just gone up to the corner of the stairs and saw my brother sitting at the door of the kitchenette with his hands on the plate, watching his mother cook......

When I thought that my brother had never been so well-behaved in his previous life, he was basically a monkey and liked to jump around. Although、That,After she came to the town to go to elementary school,In fact,,There is no less jumping with her brother。

"Brother, we're back from grocery shopping!"

The brother stood up, took her hand, and went upstairs as he went, saying:

"Let's go, my brother will take you to read a new book! Recently I found a book in the library that no one reads, the length of the words in the book is very strange, the second sister said that it is called English, it looks a bit like the pinyin alphabet and a bit like the Russian that my mother used to teach us! I also asked my eldest sister to borrow her English dictionary, and slowly looked it up word by word, and it was hard to read! But the stories are very short and good! ”

took the book given by his brother, Lele looked horizontally and vertically, and he didn't know what the book was! Thinking that she knew twenty-six letters of English in her previous life, they were the only ones who knew her when they got together! This is good, you don't have to pretend in front of your brother, but you really don't know it! The current books are not like the pictures and texts that I saw in the previous life, and now I only see the English letters in a trance in front of my eyes, who knows who they are!

"Brother, what's the name of this book?"

"It's called "Hans Christian Andersen's Fairy Tales", but it took me a long time to understand a little bit of the story in it!" My brother said proudly.

"Hmmm! My brother is amazing! I'm only in the third grade of elementary school, so I can understand that English! ”

This is the stark contrast between genius and mediocrity! Thinking about her previous life, until college, she could only do multiple-choice questions in the English test. The eraser is cut into squares, and A, B, C, and D are written on each side.

"That's it! I wait every day for my second sister to come home and teach me English! When my brother is on vacation, is it okay to teach Lele English when I go home? ”

"Good!" She started learning English before school age, and she started so much earlier than others, she didn't believe that she only knew twenty-six letters in this life?

After a while, the second sister and the third sister also came home from school, and the eldest sister had already gone to the county to study in her first year of high school at this time, so her mother did not build a house, but was in a hurry to make money first.

Sure enough, after eating, the third sister went to wash the dishes; The second sister has already taken the English textbook of the first year of junior high school and started to teach her brother English. One teaches seriously, and the other learns seriously.

At this time, there are many brothers and sisters, what a good thing! Look, isn't it even possible to save on tutoring! If you don't have to buy new books to go to school, then at their home, you can save a lot of book money!
