Chapter 66: The 70s of the Female General (66)
Two days later, Qing Soul sent the quilt sewn by Gu Zhen to the small courtyard in the city, and scrubbed the small courtyard again, and the beds were made in the rooms on both sides, using thick new mattresses, new sheets, and new quilts.
He also added pots and pans, oil, salt, sauce, vinegar, and grain to the stove, and put some of them in the cupboard and locked them.
The daily basin and basin and hot water bottles are all arranged in pairs.
Firewood and honeycomb coal were piled up in the retreat of the gate, and a small half of the room was piled up.
The yard was swept again, and a vacant lot next to the courtyard wall was also turned over with soil, and some small black cabbage, spinach, and turnip seeds were sprinkled, although they did not live here, but the second uncle often came to take care of them, and these dishes were not out, if they could be produced, the second uncle could also allocate some home to eat, so as to add a dish to the table.
Thinking of the 100 yuan that the second uncle gave him, Qingsoul found the agricultural machinery factory and sent him 20 catties of rice, 10 catties of wheat flour, 30 catties of coarse cornmeal, and 5 catties of pork.
"Little girl, why did you send such an old thing? Don't eat at home? ”
Qing Soul smiled: "It's not my own food, I thought I got it from outside, second uncle rest assured, there is no shortage of food at home, it's hard to get food in your city, these are for my brother to eat." He's young, he's growing his body, but he can't afford to lose. ”
Where is Yan Qihua willing to accept it: "Your aunt and I both have jobs, where will you lose your brother's mouth, you quickly take it back and let Erdan and Yaya eat better." If I take something from your junior, what will I become? Uncle didn't take care of you, but asked you to subsidize your child, my face is ......."
Qing Soul's face sank: "If you give it to you, you will keep it, if you don't want it, don't recognize my niece in the future." Am I the one who owes myself to subsidizing others? If you give it to you, my family is really not lacking. ”
Yan Qihua choked up with these words, and after holding back for a while, Fang said helplessly: "It's done, I can't accept it?" You kid, you dare to throw your uncle's face. ”
When Yan Qihua watched Qing Soul walk away with the bag, the doorman on the side leaned over and said, "Yo, Lao Yan, is that your niece?" Little girl, look at the one who trained you. ”
Yan Qihua: ......
"How do you speak? Can I be an uncle and call my niece training? I love my niece, it's hard to talk seriously, the little girl wants to be faced, do you understand? Besides, you're jealous that I have a niece, right? Hey, who made me have a good niece? Others can't envy it. ”
Uncle Doorman: ......
It's just quite envious, how expensive this grain is now, look at that big bag, there must be dozens of catties, right? The savings are enough for a family of three to have a month's rations.
This Lao Yan is fate, his cousin has found a job for him, and the Yue family is powerful, the rice is eaten by counting grains these years, and there are relatives in the countryside who send such a bag of grain, tsk, don't you have to be envious?
Qing Soul went to Xinhua Bookstore again, bought some study materials, and bought some books from the scrap purchase station, and then rushed back.
After the trivial chores are over, she puts her energy on studying, fortunately, there is no work to do in the production team, and the housework at home has Gu Zhen and aunt, in addition to teaching some homework to her sister-in-law and Erdanya every day, and then accompany her little uncle Yan Xiaobao to play for a while, the rest of the time, is to stay in her own room to read books and do homework, and go to a few old gentlemen in the breeding factory every other night to take classes.
Three or four days before the New Year, a market was opened on the streets of the commune, and a few aunts took the green soul to the market.
No matter how poor your life is, you have to live every year.
In the past three years, because of her father's death and filial piety, the family did not stick couplets or hang waves, but this year they all had to be purchased.
In recent years, there are very few printed couplets for sale, and they all buy red paper and write it back. A few cents of red paper, you can cut four or five couplets, no one will save this money, and then buy some firecrackers and put them off, how can it be called the New Year without these?
In addition, you have to prepare some oil fruits and cloud cakes, melon seeds, candy, early in the morning of the new year in groups of children to come to the New Year, the first day of the new year, can not ask people to empty hands, these are reserved for the New Year's children to take.
Qing Soul also deliberately went to the bank to exchange some new money, one cent and two cents for one dollar each, and one dime for five yuan. Five cents for ten dollars. These are the New Year's money that Gu Zhen and Aunt Yan are preparing to give to the children.
Ping'an Commune has ten production brigades, it is a relatively large commune, it was a big town before liberation, a street is about two miles long from east to west, the whole street is full of people in the New Year's market, a team of people on the Qingsoul side, several unmarried aunts are there, and Uncle Kang and the youngest Uncle Hai of the third grandfather's family, the little uncle Yan Xiaobao, Erdan and Yaya also came to make trouble, so they brought it together.
At this time, Qing Soul was holding Yaya, Uncle Kang was holding Erdan, several aunts were walking in front, Yan Xiaobao was following Qing Soul and Yan Qihai, and was squeezing into the crowd.
It is rare for several aunts to have money in their hands, so they really want to buy everything, so when they buy it, they stuff it into the bamboo basket on the back of Yan Qikang and Qing Soul. The thing doesn't weigh much, but this person is crowded, it is difficult to take a step, and he has to take care of the girl in his arms who was squeezed and injured, and the green soul is sweating, and it feels more difficult than fighting.
Yan Qihai was also embarrassed, and complained to Qing Soul: "I won't come to the market with them in the future, is this a market?" It's terrible. Little girl, you are optimistic about your little uncle, don't let people scatter. ”
Qing Soul was also worried, and told Yan Xiaobao: "Little uncle, you hold my arm, don't let go, if you break up, let people steal you and sell you, but you won't be able to go home." ”
Yan Xiaobao nodded: "Xiaobao will definitely not let go." Xiao Bao, you are not allowed to scare the little uncle, Xiao Bao is going home, if Xiao Bao does not go home, Xiao Bao will have no one to play with you. ”
"That is, if I didn't have my little uncle to play with me, how pitiful would I be? If anyone pulls you, tell me. If you don't see us, just stand there and wait for us to come to you, and if someone tells you to go with them, don't say yes. ”
"Xiaobao knows, don't talk to others, don't go with others. Wait for the little one. ”
"Yes, that's it, my little uncle is the smartest."
Listening to these two childish conversations, Yan Qihai rolled his eyes, if Yan Xiaobao is called smart, is there still a stupid person in the world? This pair of uncles and nephews is really speechless. I am not afraid that others will listen to the joke.
Of course, Yan Qihai didn't dare to laugh. If anyone laughs at Yan Xiaobao in front of Yoyou, the dead girl, her iron fist will fall on whoever she wants, then no one will give face.
is also an uncle, Yan Qihai feels that his life is much more miserable, compared with Yan Xiaobao, in this girl's heart, there is really no status at all.
Delicious, that's for Yan Xiaobao first, fun, or for Yan Xiaobao first, Yan Xiaobao doesn't want it, so it's his turn to be an uncle, the same uncle, why is the difference so big?
Yan Qingsoul was talking to Yan Xiaobao when he heard Yan Qichun, the third aunt in front of him, shouting: "Hey, you dare to grab things, you are so bold!" ”
(The first one, and the other one will be late, so let's see it tomorrow morning.) )
