Early in the morning, Zhang Guoqing pulled Zhou Jiao, and the couple wrapped them like balls and slowly walked towards the supply point.

"The spring breeze in February is like scissors", which is more terrible than scissors. It hurts when it blows on the surface of the exposed skin, and when you don't feel the pain, it's really over.

Zhang Guoqing helplessly protected his wife, and his eyes kept paying attention to her. I'm afraid that this girl will accidentally slip. Usually before nine o'clock, he was reluctant to let her go out. Who would have thought that she would have to make trouble for husband and wife? Now that the temperature is very different from day and night, he really doesn't want her to go out.

"Jiaojiao, look at the road, don't go under the eaves, it's dangerous!"

"Don't lift your scarf. Don't move your gloves secretly. ”

"Jiaojiao, we won't buy it when we go home. The eldest sister doesn't care, it's really troublesome! We'll take a look when the sun comes out. I want to go back. ”

Zhou Jiao was amused by him and laughed, and the laughter covered in the mask and scarf looked even more weird. The ambient temperature is even cooler by a few degrees.

"Don't take off your scarf and talk, just nod and shake your head. Okay... Girl, you're amazing! Don't nod your head, the hat is going to fall off, are you sure you didn't mean to? ”

Along the way, Zhang Guoqing came to the grain station in the non-stop chatter. Not far away, I saw a long queue, and there were wooden stools and baskets in the middle.

Zhou Jiao pulled Zhang Guoqing to the middle, her eyes kept rolling. A few steps further, I saw Zhao Yuanyuan's brother and sister waving their hands like tumbles, and she was so happy that she quickly grabbed Zhang Guoqing and ran over there.

Zhang Guoqing rolled his eyes, and Zhao Yuanyuan was all the ghost of this bad girl. He said angrily: "Don't untie your scarf and speak." Who knows what it means. ”

"Little Wu, my life is miserable. As soon as she lay down, she was woken up with a towel. You say I've done something wrong, why did I add such a sister? Zhao Hongbing said with a sad face, taking off his mask.

The people lining up in front of and behind laughed.

Zhou Jiao hurriedly took off her scarf and mask and said, "Brother Xiaobing, go back and sleep for a while." I'm so sorry to have you in line for me. Don't blame Yuanyuan, it's all because of me. ”

Zhang Guoqing didn't wait for her to say anything next, and quickly grabbed the scarf and wrapped her again, "Don't talk obediently." Your little soldier is hungry for meat, and he has to go next door to buy meat. It's okay if you're here alone, right? ”

Zhao Yuanyuan scolded unhappily: "Dead Xiaowu, didn't you see me here? Why is Jiaojiao alone? Hurry up and buy meat, less to disturb our sisters' chat. ”

Zhao Hongbing saw the front and back happily watching the play, and was so embarrassed that he hurriedly pulled Zhang Guoqing up and ran.

"Gee, don't run so fast. Jiaojiao, I'll be back soon..."

Zhang Guoqing, who knew Zhang Guoqing in the crowd, shouted after him, "Go quickly, you can't buy meat, see how your little daughter-in-law cleans you up." ”

The crowd laughed. Several aunts saw Zhang Guoqing leave and began to make fun of Zhou Jiao.

Zhou Jiao really didn't dare to take off her scarf now, and in the face of everyone's good-natured jokes, she could only hide behind Zhao Yuanyuan with a smile.

Here, Zhang Guoqing and Zhao Hongbing walked to the non-staple food store, and there were already several large baskets of Chinese cabbage and white radish frozen through the door. He looked inside the butcher's shop, where there were already two masters cleaning up.

was about to walk back and line up, when a person in front of him grabbed him and pulled him to the line, Zhang Guoqing was startled, and just wanted to see who it was. Hearing his second sister-in-law, Uncle Chen, said with a smile: "Why did you kid come?" Why wasn't your dad coming? ”

Zhang Guoqing smiled at everyone and saw that they had no opinion. He didn't leave either, knowing that such a queue was often cut in line. Just stood there and took Zhao Hongbing's ticket and asked him to go to the food point first.

"I don't think my dad will come over in an hour. What about my brother-in-law? I didn't see him in front of the grain store. Zhang Guoqing asked curiously. His brother-in-law is a filial son, how could he not accompany his father.

"I asked him to warm up at noon and then go to the grain store, that's not in a hurry. There is a supply of tofu today, and if you buy it late, it will be gone. Your nephew's little man likes to eat it the most. Uncle Chen mentioned his grandson with a smile on his face.

Zhang Guoqing complained in a low voice: "Why didn't you say it earlier." Tomorrow our family will go back to the village and do more. Can you use it to freeze a piece of tofu early in the morning? ”

Chen Bosheng was afraid that Zhang Guoqing would send a bunch of things to the door again, so he pulled him to his ear and explained in a low voice that there were new eggs today. He changed his ticket for this and came for this.

Zhang Guoqing nodded knowingly. Chickens don't lay eggs in winter, so it's worth buying.

When the time came, when it was his turn, he didn't say a word, followed the old man's ass, and followed him to buy. After buying, say goodbye to each other.

He hurriedly ran to Zhou Jiao. From a distance, I saw that Dad Zhang was already standing by the cart and waiting.

"Dad, why are you here? Rest for a while, let me come. It's our turn right away, and it'll be fine soon. Zhang Guoqing put his things away, took out the old quilt from the cart and spread it on the cart, and asked him to sit down. I ran to the front to pick up Zhou Jiao and them.

Zhou Jiao listened to Zhao Yuanyuan's idle chatter boredly, paying attention to the chaotic and mixed discussions in the nearby crowd. This family plans to exchange one pound of rice for seven pounds of sweet potatoes, and that family will teach that it is more appropriate to exchange some corn, and you can also mix some dried wild vegetables. Needless to say, these are the life experiences of the elderly, and she has to memorize these tips.

There is also an old lady who said mysteriously whose mother-in-law and daughter-in-law are arguing again, showing off how filial their daughters-in-law are and what gifts they gave during the New Year.

Some young lesbians were on the sidelines, excitedly saying that they were fortunate to have bought a lot of them a few years ago. Start the conversation around the newly added egg ticket.

An aunt I didn't know in front of me might call her grandma, but Zhou Jiao couldn't determine the age of the other party. I saw her turn around and look behind her with a sad face, and sometimes glanced enviously at herself and the others.

Zhou Jiao couldn't bear to look directly at the other party's cracked hands, and looked down to find that the cloth shoes on the feet were already scarred, and the white uppers had been sewn deformed. She subconsciously looked in front of the other party, and saw a couple standing in front of the other party, far away in disgust.

The couple was still wearing patched clothes, and Zhou Jiao couldn't see any conditions for the other two to look down on others. I really think that a broken pen on my chest is a cultural person, and I can look down on people.

Looking back to the aunt in front of her, Zhou Jiao subconsciously smiled at her. Let the other party stop talking excitedly, and hold on to the food book tightly.

At this time, there was a burst of scolding from behind, Zhou Jiao didn't care about the other party, turned around and looked behind.

Not far away, I saw people who used brick stools as markers, and they all came back to line up. Seeing that the grain store is about to open for business, some people who are struggling in the cold wind and people queuing up are not happy to cut the queue.

"You're in a hurry to get to work, and which of us hasn't taken half a day off? Be honest and go to the back of the line! An eldest sister pointed at each other with one hand and roared.

The crowd was not lively enough to watch the play, so he added fuel to the fire and smiled: "Didn't you see that other female comrades are directing you?" Why don't you go back to your own man for support? ”

"Who's of yours boy? I think life is comfortable, right? …”

There are many people, every word, and they are all shouting. This is also the big winter, most of them are dressed like bears, otherwise the fire is so big, there must be no less fights in the summer.

A few old men and old ladies persuaded a few words, pushed away a few people who cut in line, and finally put an end to the accident.

Zhou Jiao saw that most of the onlookers regretted that they couldn't continue watching the play, and lowered her head and smiled.

Finally waited for the door to open, and the front rushed up, shouting, and quickly holding up the notebook. The crowd in the back queue followed suit.

Zhao Yuanyuan yelled angrily, "What's the hurry? What about reincarnation? Line up! Get in line! ”

At this time, a middle-aged man walked out of the grain store, shouting loudly for everyone to line up and come one by one in formation. The crowd quieted down.

Zhou Jiao gestured to Daddy Zhang, who was squeezing over here, his house hadn't arrived yet, so let him go outside first. Seeing that he glanced ahead, then at the team behind, he shook his head and walked away with a smile.

Seeing this, she was so happy that she laughed along, and it is estimated that Daddy Zhang felt that queuing for shopping was so strange like her, and the crowd was really lively.

As soon as Zhang Guoqing came over, he saw Zhou Jiao crowded in the crowd, looking around, like a fool, and having fun. He hurriedly went over to change people, pulled Zhao Hongbing, who was watching the excitement, and asked the two little girls to go back to accompany Zhang's father.

Zhou Jiao shook her head, pulled Zhao Yuanyuan out of the team, and stood there and looked inside. I saw that the staff inside was so fast, and after receiving it, I urged people to go to the side.

Seeing her home, Zhou Jiao hurriedly pulled Zhao Yuanyuan to Zhang Guoqing and the others. At this time, the aunt just now shouted in a low voice Little girl, little girl.

Zhang Guoqing hurriedly said: "Auntie, you be louder, my daughter-in-law can't hear it." Is there something wrong? It's the same with me. After speaking, he saw that the other party smiled at him stiffly and said nothing.

He looked at Zhou Jiao with a questioning face, do you know?

"Auntie, what's wrong? Do you know me? You have to talk about something quickly, it's about us. Zhou Jiao wondered if the other party wanted to borrow money, and hurriedly said.

The other party saw Zhou Jiao's smile on her face, and nodded again and again, "I know your mother-in-law." It was your father-in-law, right? ”

Zhou Jiao nodded and smiled. Seeing that the other party's attitude is not flattering. She was curious why the other party was so close to her. It stands to reason that Xiao Wu, her mother-in-law and son, is the one who the other party wants to talk to.

When the other party saw that it was her turn immediately, he looked around and muttered: "Let your mother-in-law be careful that her old sister deliberately came to the door to cry poor." After saying that, she immediately bowed her head and squeezed forward.

Zhou Jiao looked at Zhang Guoqing with a smile when she heard this, but she knew that his ear power was very good, and she must have heard the other party's words. I saw him smile and shake his head. The two of them smiled knowingly, and didn't catch up and ask again.

Half an hour later, Zhang Guoqing packed the rations of the three families. The processing point not far from the side was crowded, and the aunt just now was still there, so he didn't want to contact these people, so he left Zhao Hongbing and his two brothers and sisters, pulled up the cart and left.

Facing Daddy Zhang's puzzled eyes, he didn't elaborate on the reason, and said with a smile that there is no shortage of food at home, and they will be processed together next month. As for what the man said just now, he didn't feel at ease. No matter what the other party's intentions are, as long as his mother's hands are tight, he can't wait for the whole family to eat and save money, and it is useless for anyone to come over and cry poor.
