Chapter 9: Visiting the Door
Li Na rode her bicycle home, feeling that her butt was about to be broken by the car seat, which was hard to help, and there was a cracked hole.
Li Na found out the cotton clothes of acrylic cotton that was placed in the space before, this look, too 'trendy' to wear out, used scissors to remove the acrylic cotton, found out the original owner's shabby clothes, picked a good place to make a thick cotton bicycle seat cover, afraid of wearing out, exposed cotton, used three layers of cloth. Put it on the seat of the car and tie it up. Looking at the handlebars, Li Na made another pair of cotton handlebars and tied them to the handlebars. It's still a little cold.
Li Na has observed in the past few days that most of her neighbors live in one house. The status should not be low, and it should even be very capable. Even Uncle Zhang, who sold his house, is the same, otherwise in this turbulent era, how can he live so nourishingly, and still have such a big house, not even one, otherwise how can he give the house money, he will give the key to himself and leave, shouldn't normal people clean up for a few days, obviously he still has a foothold. Otherwise, with Uncle Zhang's words, he is the niece of his hometown, so he let his life be so peaceful, and no one finds fault, but it is a pity that he took the train to Shanghai on the same day. Otherwise, I should thank you, Li Na thought.
At that time, Li Shuyang, the female public security officer who introduced the house to herself, was separated from the right side of her house by three houses.
Li Na saw that it was almost nine o'clock, and it was the right time to visit.
took out a pack of Jiang rice noodles, a pack of peach crisp, and two bottles of sorghum wine bought in Yutian, and went to visit Li Gong'an's house first.
"Is anyone there?" Li Na saw that the door was not closed, and shouted directly at the door.
Soon, an old lady in her seventies who looked cheerful came out of the room, with a strong bookish atmosphere, giving people a feeling of getting along very well.
The old lady looked at the visitor, a little girl of fifteen or sixteen years old, wearing flat black leather shoes, black woolen trousers, and a small red plaid cotton overcoat, although it was not the popular corduroy, but her round little face, fair skin, should live in good conditions.
"Hello, I'm a new neighbor, my name is Li Na. You can call me Cortana or Lee. My house was introduced by your family! ”
"Then call you Cortana, you can call me Grandma Tian, I heard Xiaoyang talk about you, thinking that you will clean up the house in the past few days, it is relatively busy, and I want to wait for you to finish your busy work, go to your house, how about it, has the house been cleaned up? I'm still thinking that when you're ready, I'll go to your house. Grandma Tian said enthusiastically that she likes this kind of pleasing little girl.
Li Na and Grandma Tian entered the door, and the small courtyard in front of them was a typical old courtyard house, and you could vaguely see the carved beams and paintings of the year. 9
Li Na and Grandma Tian said as they walked, "It's almost over, it's time to buy some firewood,"
"It's easy to buy firewood in the first house, I have acquaintances I know, if you need me to contact you, a cart of twenty yuan is enough for you to burn for a year." Grandma Tian wants to get along with Li Na.
"Really, great, I'm wondering where to buy, you can solve my urgent needs." Li Na said happily.
"This is a specialty of my hometown, and I specially brought it to your family to try it." Li Na said.
"Take it back quickly, if you can retreat, you will retreat, if you can't return, you will make up for yourself." Grandma Tian refused.
"You have to take this, this is the heart of my junior, you can't live up to it, if you don't accept it, you don't want to pay attention to me, an orphan girl." Li Na said.
"You kid!" Grandma Tian sighed helplessly. …… After chatting with Grandma Tian for a while, I found out. Li Gongan is the daughter of her youngest son. The old lady has three sons, all of whom live in this courtyard, and many of the three sons have families. Don't look at the courtyard is not small, but it is also full. But everyone is very busy, but the New Year's holiday does not eat together. There are also several grandchildren who have gone to the countryside to become educated youths, and some have gone to the army, and Li Gong'an has just transferred from the army. The eldest son works in the Political Department. The second son is in the government, and the younger son is the head of the Public Security Bureau, which happens to be the superior of Li Gong'an. Hehe! The old couple retreated, and according to Grandma Tian, this courtyard house was given to Grandpa Li by the state back then.
After chatting with Grandma Tian for a while, Li Na said goodbye, and Grandma Tian wanted to keep Li Na here for dinner, but was rejected on the grounds that Li Na still had something to do at home.
Li Na took her things to visit the neighborhood committee, and several aunts were also very enthusiastic about her. The neighbors also visited, and the attitude was not bad on the face of the gift, but there was a neighbor Aunt Wang who complained about Li Na's own big house, and talked about how Uncle Zhang's house was given to Li Na and didn't take care of the neighborhood. His family is very crowded, several generations are in the same house, and there is no place for the youngest son to get married. Think that the house should be given to people who need it more. Listening to the neighbor's aunt, this Aunt Wang began to want to live in vain, but people refused, so she took out another 500 yuan to buy it, and Uncle Wang ignored her directly. Forget it, Li Na thought, she is not RMB, how can everyone like it! hehe
When I returned home, I kept the door closed because I didn't feel safe.
Heat up the leftovers on the stove and you're done with lunch.
In the afternoon, he took out two dismantling coats and stroked them, but he didn't dare to cut them
。 Seeing that there is nothing in conflict with this era, put it in a satchel, ride a bicycle to the tailor's shop, and ask the tailor to cut two coats according to his own size, this era is a very popular army green clothes! The rest of the cloth is also cut by the tailor, and a few pieces of cloth can be worn on a pair of pants, which is thrifty and thrifty, and there is no shame. I'm ready to take it home and sew it myself. In this era, there are a lot of altered clothes, and the tailor quickly cut them. Li Na spent two cents and went home happily.
When I got home, I plugged in the door, took out the electric sewing machine, and the car was good, because I hadn't done it before, and it took several times to dismantle it. I still feel a sense of accomplishment. took out cotton, cotton cloth, and made a quilt again, and Li Na made a small double quilt. This time, because of the experience, it was much faster and better than last time. When making the quilt cover again, Li Na planned to keep a low profile, made the lining with cotton cloth, dismantled the previous quilt of the original owner, took out the old cloth to make face, cut it, and put on the quilt for a quilt cover.
At this time, I heard a knock on the door, Li Na hurriedly put the sewing machine in the space, folded the quilt, and quickly opened the door to see that there was no problem.
"Who?"
"It's me!" It turned out to be Li Gong'an, wearing a white police uniform, very energetic. I saw her carrying a large bowl of potato stew. It turned out that when it was time for dinner, I was busy and forgot.
"Li Gong'an, come in," Li Na hurriedly welcomed her in. There was no seat in the living room, so I had to let her into the east room.
"Xiao Na can just call me Sister Yang." Sister Yang looked at the empty living room, there is only a wardrobe and a desk in the east room, it seems that the little girl did not add furniture, but the little girl lived in these by herself is enough, looking at the brand-new kang sheet, the new quilt, it seems that life is not bad. The little girl was surprised to buy this yard so quickly. The price of this house is not too little, when Uncle Zhang let out the wind and said that the little girl was his niece in his hometown, he didn't say anything, the little girl is alone, she can't help herself, she can help!
