Chapter 182
In the room, Zhou Jiao was holding her son with the three-character scripture on her back, and when she saw Zhang Guoqing coming in dirty, she said to the child with a smile: "Ping'an, who do you think this is?" How like it's called Hanako. Our little darling understands that too, right? Peace, I'm your mom, that's your dad. Look at Dad and ask Dad where he's coming back? Isn't there a lot of meat? ”
Zhang Guoqing shook his head helplessly, he knew that she really couldn't lie down. I haven't sat down well this month, and I don't know what will happen in the future.
"Why don't you lie down, you will be tired holding your arms like this."
"It's okay, I just put it down when I hold it/breastfeed for a while. Is this coming down from the mountain? Do you still have to rush to the county seat? Would you like to have another bite to eat? ”
Zhang Guoqing found his clothes and pants, took the toiletries, shook his head and said, "We have all come back from the mountain." Good luck today. I didn't expect to meet a herd of deer by the creek. Hit six wild deer, three spores, and a goat. We have one more goat. There are six pheasants in the bamboo basket under the eaves, and I specially picked them to make up for you. Time is tight, and I don't have time to get the eggs when I see them, so I'll take you there when you're ready for confinement, and the pheasants will wait for me to come back and clean up. With that, he hurried away.
After Zhou Jiao waited for him to leave, she took her son back to the back room. Coax the child to put it on the kang. She opened the secret compartment of the wardrobe by herself, took out a cardboard box from it, and returned to the kang to open it and take a look. It was found that the bicycle tickets and watch tickets inside were invalid after the end of the year. I checked the date last time, and I guess I didn't care about these tickets.
She hesitated, but poured it out and looked again to see if it had expired. Before, her mother gave her all the bills before leaving. She stayed at home and didn't go out, Zhang Guoqing was always using it, and she didn't pay attention to what bills there were.
Now, in addition to the three major items, namely food stamps, cloth stamps, and sugar stamps, they don't need other bills. Some of the management is not strict. For example, the cotton tickets in hand are all from the provincial capital, and they can buy them directly at a high price in the county. I heard her mother say that she didn't ask for cotton tickets yesterday, and homespun cloth doesn't need cloth tickets.
Zhou Jiao carefully sorted it out. These should be used when you go back to the city. The food stamps are all national stamps, and they must have been left by her mother last time. She still has to prepare some for Zhang Guoqing to take to the restaurant today, and she looked at the food stamps in her hand with some pain.
Eventually, she pulled out her bike ticket and watch ticket and threw them aside. She didn't pity this vote at all. She had two watches, and she was embarrassed to give the poor ones to her mother-in-law, so she threw them in the drawer. As for giving it away, hehe... She really didn't have that in mind.
Look at the coat in the closet. found that Zhang Guoqing really had no clothes. Thinking about the fabric in her hands, while her father was at home, she made a few coats for them by herself, she believed in her own craftsmanship, and she didn't look down on them in general.
In the closet, the clothes of the two of them, except for the new clothes for the wedding, are all old and white, or they are patched. That is, her four new coats. There is no shortage of her clothes, and there are several brand-name coats in the space, all of which are very classic styles, and she has never been used to fancy ones, and plans to wear them back in Beijing.
It's a pity that some of Zhang Guoqing's coats were not placed in her space at that time. Now she is the only one who is shopping, and the two big down jackets and cardigans she bought for him are new and unworn. But she didn't dare to take it out.
Zhou Jiao looked at her son, who was still lying quietly on the kang. She directly took out a down jacket and wondered if to open it and add some cotton. That shouldn't be inconspicuous, right? The style was changed again, and the dead cold winter was just warm.
When Zhang Guoqing came back, he saw Zhou Jiao comparing the down jacket, and hurriedly stepped forward to take a look, "When did you buy this?" Are there any clothes in there that are mine? You don't know that the military coat is warm, but it is too heavy. ”
At this time, Zhang Lao Er was not there, otherwise he would definitely spray his face.
"I'm going to make this black one and add thin cotton to it, and then repair it. You see it's very thick, and I originally bought it to give you a cold day to wear to your ancestors. And this brown is better-looking, reluctant to change, keep it for the future to wear in the metropolis. Your clothes rarely put me here. I bought everything in it later, and sometimes I put it in it before I saw the season. But it is not suitable, and the craftsmanship is very high-end at first glance. Zhou Jiao casually released a bunch of clothes on the kang.
Zhang Guoqing nodded, flipped through his clothes, looked at it and shook his head, "Don't change it, I'll wear it later." It's all good, put it away. Son, do you understand? Baby, it's appropriate to keep it for you to wear when you grow up, hehe. ”
Zhou Jiao put away the pile of clothes, touched the down jacket, and decided to change it. Her current craft decision is fine. But I don't plan to talk to him, or I'm going to stop it again, so that the confinement doesn't do it.
"You hurry up and get out, the second brother is probably in a hurry. All the bills on the kang were brought to him, and the bicycle and watch tickets were given to him, and we did not lack these. By the way, bicycles in the Friendship Mall are cheaper than in the county seat, so if you go to the provincial capital, you should bring the overseas Chinese remittance voucher. ”
Zhang Guoqing shook his head, "Forget it, let's give him a ticket and let him buy it himself." We keep the overseas Chinese remittance vouchers on hand for our own use, so as to save the trouble of finding someone to exchange them. Besides, waiting to buy it back involves money and trouble. Keep the watch ticket and wait for the eldest sister to give it to her in a few days. I used to mention that I wanted to buy a watch and couldn't find a ticket. I ignored what she was going to keep for myself. Now that I'm wearing it, this one is useless. ”
Zhou Jiao took the bill and put it directly into the space, and asked curiously: "I have long said that the warm house has been warm, why hasn't there been any movement for so long, I thought they wouldn't do it." ”
"Hehe, they're in a hurry to move in. My brother-in-law told me no less than three times that we would like to live in a new house, but he still didn't move. But this time it should be soon, it seems that there is something to do with the brothers at home, I didn't inquire carefully. Mother let our three brothers not have to be courtesy. Wait for you to go to the county yard to take a look, there are a lot of old things in it to pick up for the eldest sister. It's all good things piled up in the warehouse, and Dad said it's for you to give away. Hehe... Didn't Aunt Cheng take home some military supplies? Dad asked Mom to send things to the warehouse in the future, and keep the new ones for you. Zhang Guoqing smiled after speaking, he had seen the pots and chopsticks in the kitchen, which were even better than those at home.
Zhou Jiao shook her head, "Don't give it away, see if those porcelain bowls are antiques?" When my parents leave, I'll pick out some that should be used first. The rest is for my mother to see and decide. Last time, my mother bought a lock and felt distressed for several days, if we give it away casually, it is estimated that she will be angry. By the way, when you go to the county seat, remember to see if the lock is there, take it back to your mother, and hear her say that she wants to lock something. ”
Zhang Guoqing rubbed her hair funny, "Okay, listen to you." After the lock, the things are piled up in the warehouse, waiting for my mother to see it herself. If you don't say it, I really forgot to see if the vase in the study is an antique, and I don't think my dad paid attention to these details. This time, I actually went to see the pickle jar, maybe it was Yuan Qinghua. I'm gone, you take care of the rest yourself. ”
Zhou Jiao laughed, he didn't expect her to be joking, he took it seriously. Watching Zhang Guoqing leave, he thought about it and smiled, and then there are antiques, this house is given away for nothing.
Turn on the gramophone and play the song to my son. Zhou Jiao took the needlework basket from the outhouse and returned to the inner room, where she sat there humming a tune and was busy with the work at hand.
