Chapter Ninety-One: Return to the Village
At three o'clock in the evening, a car drove slowly, stopped at the gate of Zhang's house at the foot of Beishan, this Xizi just woke up, and was very excited after seeing home, first greeted Lin Lishan, hurriedly ran into the yard, and shouted his grandmother, he knew that the family would also go to work, and called her grandmother to come out to move things.
Lin Lishan looked around and there was no one, so she went up directly to carry her things, and went back to Zhou Jiao's room in the west wing, she didn't have time to say anything to Zhou Jiao, and then went out to move the things in the car back with Zhang's mother, who rushed to hear the news.
Zhou Jiao watched her mother come in and go out, estimated that there were a lot of things, and when she saw them coming in, she hurriedly asked them to take a breath first, and put the things in the car, and no one dared to go back and steal them.
After Lin Lishan took the warm water and drank it, she shook her hand, "There are not many things, the ones I bought are all small and inconspicuous, and I brought them all in." It's that the radio is a large item, and this won't be boring for you to listen to during confinement, and the things inside the Friendship Mall are indeed much cheaper than outside. You don't have to get up to look at other things, just lie down in peace. When I clean it up later, you'll know, and I'll buy all the necessities I need to buy. ”
After that, open each package, take out the contents and put them in the wardrobe and box in turn. After it was stuffed, he was stunned, looked at the piled up packages on the ground, and patted his brain.
Mother Zhang had been opening her mouth wide since she opened the package, and she stopped talking, which saw her movements and laughed, pointing to the top of the cabinet.
The two of them worked together to carry a few pieces of fabric and put them on top, placed the radio, and saw that Zhang's mother shook her head again and again, chattering and persuading her in-laws not to buy them in the future.
Zhou Jiao looked at it with great interest at first, but gradually kept silent, and kept glancing at her mother. Fortunately, Lin Lishan came to her senses and didn't open the rest of the package, and directly stuffed the outer cabinets and boxes.
In the end, what is left is non-staple food and pastry.
Out of the corner of her eye, Zhou Jiao saw that there were two more packages in the corner, "Mom, where did the two packages in the corner come from?" Why is there a wrap skin that is so big? ”
Lin Lishan knew at a glance that it was sent by Fang Jianmei, but she forgot about it. dragged two packages and put them in the middle, and saw that the corners of Zhou Jiao's eyes only twitched. When I opened it, I saw two military coats, two pairs of military boots, and three military bags. In another small package, there were two cans of malt cream, a piece of cloth, and about a pound of wool, and a piece of red paper was carefully placed on it.
Zhou Jiao looked at her mother in confusion, this red paper is a favor to exchange.
Lin Lishan smiled, "This was given by Xiaofei's sister-in-law Fang Jianmei." Her niece plans to enter the Beijing Art Troupe, and you can accept it with peace of mind. Usually the relationship between the two of us is average, and this will depend on my decision. Wait for Xiao Wu to come back in detail, he will tell you. ”
After speaking, I saw that she understood, and I didn't explain again.
Zhou Jiao watched her mother take out a piece of wrapping skin and put a lot of candy and pastries in it. He stuffed a book into his bag and put a pencil on Kiko's back.
Lin Lishan looked at the gifts for the child, and said to Xizi: "Put the military bag in your own room first." Put it away and go to grandma. You arranged the gifts for your younger brothers and sisters, and your grandmother gave them to you. After saying that, he pushed him out.
Xizi really loves his beautiful grandmother, and actually thought of hiding the military bag for him first.
The little guy secretly hid, went out and called his younger brothers and sisters back, and took them back to Zhou Jiao's room.
looked at them shouting, and warned with a straight face: "Whoever is not well-behaved, who has no gift." I'll thank you Grandma later. Seeing that they were honest, he nodded like little adults.
Here, Lin Lishan is not in a hurry to pack up her things, she is wondering where to install the briquette stove outside. After discussing with Zhang's mother, he found that when the new house was renovated, Zhang Guoqing took this into account and had already set up the vents in advance, and even installed the pipes.
Immediately breathed a sigh of relief, "Jiaojiao." Mom bought it, and there are 300 overseas Chinese remittance coupons, plus the 300 given by Fang Jianmei, all for you to keep. When the confinement is over, you can go and see for yourself, everything is good there. I bought two coals and two alcohols for the stove, and the alcoholic ones can be put in the room for use, and I'll try them later.
The coal stove should be placed in the outer room, and this one will be installed in the outer room when Xiao Wu comes back. In winter, you can stew something, boil water, and open the small doors of the two rooms to warm up. There are also 300 pounds of coal tickets, and this winter is not afraid of no coal use, you can open the furnace if you are fine, and the temperature inside will rise. ”
Lin Lishan dismantled the briquette stove, which is more exquisite in workmanship than the common ones in the world, and the sealing gate design is very suitable for a gentle push with little force.
Mother Zhang heard this and hurriedly said, "Big sister, don't wait for Xiao Wu to come back, let his brother help install the stove as soon as possible, just stew some things and put them away, and I'm not afraid of being hungry at night, just eat if you want." You have a briquette ticket and ask his father to borrow an ox cart to go to the city to buy it. ”
Lin Lishan nodded happily, seeing that Xizi finally came in, she gave all the gifts she was going to give to the child, and asked him to share them with her younger brothers and sisters. Zhang's mother couldn't intervene, so she was so anxious that she said don't give it to the child, and she was persuaded by Zhou Jiao's mother and daughter to give up. Here, Kiko shared the gifts and told what she had seen and heard in the provincial city, which caused the children to buzz.
After chatting a few words, seeing that dinner was about to be prepared, Zhang's mother took Xizi and them out, leaving Zhou Jiao's mother and daughter to stay inside.
Zhou Jiao watched her mother clean up, and couldn't help but ask her: "Mom, you have bought so much, and you are not tired of driving the car, let's rest first." Is Xiao Wu okay there? ”
Lin Lishan sat down and looked at her with a smile, "Very good, he also told me today, let you rest assured, and come back in a few days." Your grandfather took him to the military region last night to meet with people, and he also praised him, he was very adaptable and performed well. ”
Zhou Jiao was relieved when she heard this. Seeing her mother packing two small packages, the corners of her eyes twitched, who are you planning to send? If you guessed correctly, this is going to be prepared, even the two sisters-in-law.
"Mom, you won't give it to Xiao Wu's two sisters, right? I didn't give him a military coat or a military bag, but kept them for me. ”
Lin Lishan smiled, and glanced at her stingy girl, "Don't you and Xiao Wu have military coats?" Or give it to them, I originally planned to give them, I didn't prepare their gifts, I thought of them when I saw them yesterday. So that each of them has one piece, and they are all fair. There's no need to be reluctant to give up two military coats, when you wear the old ones, I'll give you new ones. Tomorrow you ask your father-in-law to bring it over, and add some cloth and sugar cubes. Today I bought a lot of fabrics, and if you see which one you don't like, you can give it away. ”
Lin Lishan took out all the scattered fabrics.
Zhou Jiao looked at all of them, frowned and said: "Forget it, these fabrics are all good, save them for later use, don't I have wool there, how about giving a pound of wool to the family?" Both of them are in textile factories, and there is not a shortage of cloth tickets. Pick some good ones in the yarn and help me see if it's okay? ”
Lin Lishan looked at her speechlessly, she had seen the Zhang Meili sisters yesterday, and she had also seen their children, why didn't she see that there was no shortage of fabrics in their family? Looking at her flattering smirk, think about it, or listen to her own coquettishness. Originally, the meeting gift was for her, otherwise who did she know?
