Chapter 13 Check-in
Guo Renyi and Lin Sixian went into the room to whisper, and after coming out, Lin Sixian handed Lin Xi a thousand yuan, saying that Grandpa Guo found someone to get rid of the two beads and sold them for 6,000 yuan, this thousand yuan was for Lin Xi to buy her favorite objects to decorate her new home, and the other few thousand yuan were put by Grandpa Guo for safekeeping, saving Lin Xi from taking too much money and losing it.
Lin Xi has no opinion, as long as her grandfather and they know where the money comes from, it doesn't matter if she doesn't give her the thousand yuan, she can get the money herself.
However, the two "Night Pearls" were only sold for 6,000 yuan, and she still secretly complained: that is, in this special era, jewelry is not worth much in China, and if it is to be placed in the future generations, or even smuggled out of the country, then I don't know if it can be exchanged for tens of millions.
Lin Xi was busy in the next two days, her grandmother was weak, and Ah Qiupo wanted to take the children to do housework, Lin Xi didn't want them to help, she went out early and returned to operate independently every day, and she didn't want Grandpa Guo, but requisitioned the tricycle he borrowed.
A few hemp bags on the tricycle are her props, the sacks are stuffed with paper shells, it looks like it is filled with things, the sack is carried into the house and the door is closed, and then the objects in the space are taken out, of course, you have to go to various stores in advance to inspect, understand the price, style and color, and then carefully selected, finally get a batch of items that are basically consistent with the current era, most things do not have patterns, such as fine porcelain bowls, soup basins, enamel basins, mouth cups, try to use the look conservative old-fashioned, that is, choose a kitchen knife to check carefully, Beware of the cold casting on it with a number marked with the date of production, it is really unclear to explain when it is discovered.
Curtains and bed sheets cotton covers are more difficult to do, the kind of large and gorgeous in later generations can not be used at all, can only find some elegant floral cloth, take it to the street sewing club to make curtains, bed sheets are simple, directly take the ready-made light color can be used, cotton covers are not good to use directly in later generations, will be questioned, at least in the past two years. Just find a piece of fancy fabric and cut it into a quilt, then make a lining, and then put it together and sew it by hand...... Lin Xi was very helpless, this was simply asking for trouble, but fortunately, grandma and Ah Qiupo both thought that she couldn't do needlework, so they took it directly, and the two of them muttered while slowly sewing and stapling, as if they were playing.
Bed cover, duvet, silk quilt, etc., forget it, the silk quilt is too high-profile and dare not use, can only honestly sleep on the quilt, fortunately, the new quilt is also very soft and comfortable.
In special years, most people are not rich, do not need to consider buying large items, furniture only needs bed frames, wardrobes, low cabinets, tables and chairs, these go to the wood furniture factory to order, in order to try to be low-key and not attract attention, Guo Renyi did not let the factory deliver to the door, he and Guo Dafu took advantage of the darkness to cook, people stay in the house to cook and eat when the tricycle was carried back several times.
Five days later, everything was stopped, Lin Xi and his grandparents moved in, and the small house on the side of the small alley was temporarily locked.
That night, Lin Xi and Yang Minzhen worked together to make a big table of good dishes for Ah Qiupo, the lights in the new house were bright, and the two families happily had a meal, which was regarded as a "warm stove", and since then Lin Xi has a new home, a home with his grandparents.
Guo Renyi and Guo Dafu moved the four consignment sacks into the new house, Lin Xi divided half of the food items that had been opened and displayed to the Guo family, Guo Renyi and Ah Qiu excused themselves, and Liao Shuyi asked them to take them back: "What else do our two families share with each other?" We wouldn't have been able to live without you all these years. Anyway, it's Xiaoxi's heart, besides, put it all in a bunch, if there is another accident, it will be gone. ”
Guo Renyi didn't say anything anymore, and Guo Dafu carried some things back, Ah Qiu said with a smile: It's time to enter the wax moon, thinking about boiling laba porridge, it's just right to have these rare beans and rice!
Moved to a spacious room, Lin Sixian and Liao Shuyi were also relaxed, and felt that their breathing was a lot smoother, especially when they went up to the second floor and saw their granddaughter let them live in the big bedroom, and also set up a small study room for them, knowing that Lin Sixian likes to dance and write ink, and the four treasures of the study room are well prepared, and his eyes are red with emotion, thinking back to the past curled up in a small and damp small room and not daring to move, that kind of grievance and depression, I don't know how much longevity I have lost.
Fortunately, God has eyes to protect the safe return of the baby granddaughter, and they are also the ones who can enjoy the blessings of their granddaughter.
After two days of happy reunion, Lin Sixian and Liao Shuyi reminded Lin Xi and asked her to go back to Sun's house.
Lin Xi's mother Lin Qiao disappeared in 1956, his father Sun Qingyong married Wang Ying a few months later, Lin Sixian and Liao Shuyi have not been able to come out of the pain of losing their beloved daughter, Sun Qingyong's move is tantamount to a sword for the couple, and Sun Qingyong turned against him in anger, Lin Xi was only five years old at the time, and he couldn't do without his grandparents who had doted on her since childhood, Sun Qingyong let her stay in the Lin family, and in 60, Lin Sixian and his wife were put on the hat of "Feng Zi Xiu", raided the house, isolated and reviewed, and in order to protect their granddaughter, Lin Sixian went to Sun Qingyong and returned Lin Xi's custody to him, so Lin Xi's background is innocent, she can also be regarded as a descendant of the revolution, her father Sun Qingyong enlisted in the army at the age of seventeen and participated in the War of Liberation and the War of Resistance and Aid.
Lin Sixian and Liao Shuyi didn't want anything else, they only hoped that Sun Qingyong would look at the blood relationship and give Lin Xi protection.
Lin Xi had a headache, the original Lin Xi was extremely resistant to the Sun family in her memory, which showed that she didn't like to stay in the Sun family, and now Lin Xi was even more unhappy to go.
Wang Ying married Sun Qingyong and became the head of the Sun family, and regarded Sun Qingyong's oil bottle as a thorn in the flesh, and was directly sent to the mountains beyond the mountains to cut the queue, and her own oil bottle Sun Bingyan was favored by Sun Qingyong in every way, and planned for her early.
The comparison between Lin Xi and Sun Bingyan fully illustrates what it means to 'have a stepmother, a stepfather, and a child with a mother is a treasure'!
The national policy requires urban intellectual youth to go to the mountains and go to the countryside to be self-reliant, but those who have a job or enlist in the army can circumvent this article, and Sun Qingyong was merciful and gave Lin Xi a place to join the army, but was taken away by Wang Yinglian by fraud, and Lin Xi went to the countryside for more than half a year, and never got a word of Sun Qingyong's inquiry.
The original owner is dead, if Lin Xi doesn't wear it, maybe he will still be so calm and noncommittal when facing the news of his daughter's death.
What kind of dad is this? It's better not to have one.
