Chapter 275: Moving to the county seat
The weather is getting colder and colder day by day, and time passes in Zhou Jiao pulling Zhang Guoqing up the mountain to find supplies. Seeing that the heavy snow was coming, Zhang Guoqing began to pack his usual luggage at home.
Taking advantage of a sunny day, the new yard was entrusted to Daddy Zhang and his wife who had returned to live in the old courtyard. called a carriage and took Zhou Jiao, her son, and a bunch of luggage back to the county seat.
As soon as Zhang Guoqing returned to the county courtyard, he breathed a sigh of relief. Living in the village, his family comes and goes every day, and the hall is full of smoke every day. Regardless of whether he has a friendship or not, when he sees him pulling him and keeps saying kindness, talking about relationships, and getting close, he is distressed.
The most unbearable thing is that some women ran to his room without saying hello, sat on the kang and smoked dry cigarettes, and did not forget to hold Zhou Jiao's hand, and even the sleeping children woke up with a loud voice. Regardless of the previous relationship, they were estranged, spitting loudly, and the children they brought were even more casually rummaging through the cabinets.
Zhang Guoqing thought of this period of chickens flying and dogs jumping, and shook his head. In a short period of time, his family really had no plans to go back, and they didn't dare to go back.
In the living room, Zhou Jiao put the child into the cradle sent by Zhao Dashan, pulled Zhang Guoqing up and said, "Brother, let's still follow the original plan." Play the dress up game first. ”
Zhang Guoqing smiled, it can be regarded as the ultimate use of space. As soon as the carpenter master notified him two days ago, he took Zhou Jiao to take the opportunity to put the finished furniture into the space, and waited for the county seat to change it all. Even thought of the reason, and even how to deal with Zhang's father and mother, the couple were right.
Zhou Jiao pulled him to the bedroom, touched it lightly with her hand, and the bedroom was empty all of a sudden. Watch her put on new furniture like a fairy with a magic wand, put her clothes on without effort, and change them in the blink of an eye.
Although Zhang Guoqing has seen it many times, he still can't help but be shocked. This space can still be used in the future or not, in case a little trace is revealed, it will be a monstrous disaster.
Zhang Guoqing looked at the new two rows of enclosed bookshelves in the study with satisfaction. Although it costs a lot of money, it is inconspicuous when it is closed. Then they lived in the county seat, and there were more people coming and going, and there were many people with red eyes. If you can do less, you will do less. He is now afraid that others will turn over old accounts.
"Do you want to talk to my dad about it? I can hide it from others, but I can't hide it from my dad. Knowing that I liked these old things the most, he must have wondered what was going on with us, and he would have rushed over immediately. ”
Zhang Guoqing nodded after listening. The couple explained to the public that they didn't like the old things and gave them away separately. can only deceive ordinary people, but can't deceive his father-in-law.
"Be sure to make it clear to Dad. Uncle Dashan and Godfather must not believe what we say, they will definitely mention it to Dad. According to what we and my father and mother said, there are too many valuable things, and there are many people who secretly look at us, so we found a reason to secretly hide them for future use. Dad will help us cover it up when he hears it. ”
Zhou Jiao saw that the study had been changed, pulled Zhang Guoqing to the living room, and nodded approvingly, just as she was about to write a letter to tell her father that he would live in the county in the future, and the address of the letter and telegram would be changed.
Zhang Guoqing saw that she began to wander and reminded: "Don't touch your son's cradle." Space took the cradle, and it was no joke that our son fell. ”
Zhou Jiao glanced at him, thinking about covering her mouth and smiling. She remembered that she had always dreamed that he was being received into the space by herself, and she was so frightened that she woke up all at once.
After tidying up the main room, the two of them went to the kitchen to change the table. They smelled the burning briquettes and looked at each other as they pointed to the next room, where there was a real clay kang that connected to the kitchen. I used to live with a nanny and aunt, but now I can use it.
Zhang Guoqing looked at the room with satisfaction, it had been cleaned before, and it was very clean. said: "I wipe it again with disinfectant water. After that, cook and eat and let him lie here, and he can hear him crying. ”
Zhou Jiao continued: "In case an outsider comes temporarily, you can arrange to move in after changing the quilt." ”
Zhang Guoqing carried a bucket of hot water, mixed it with some disinfectant and scrubbed it, and opened the door to allow air circulation. After waiting for a while, let Zhou Jiao lay out a new kang mat and mattress, touched it with her hand, and put a pillow quilt.
His family now has a lot of quilts, and he is worried that after next year, the cotton purchase restriction management will be stricter. Last time, the old quilt was renovated, and Master Fang bought a few more beds, plus the military quilt sent by Zhao Chuanguang, if there is no accident, it is enough to have a few more children.
The couple went back to the living room, looked at each other from the inside and smiled, safety was more important than anything else. Next, Zhang Guoqing has to borrow a truck to cover it up, otherwise the thing will disappear out of thin air for no reason, who doesn't doubt it.
After lunch and a break, Zhang Guoqing began to go out to run errands non-stop.
As the end of the year approaches, this is a time when he must come to the market. After a few markets, he more or less found some big resellers. There is no shortage of smart people in any era. Some people collect grain from acquaintances to earn the difference. This will be rushed to the other party to discuss the delivery location and time.
Zhang Guoqing found the eastern suburbs of the woods in advance, and waited for the other party to deliver the goods in the evening. He and Zhou Jiao pushed the cart over when the time came, and no one could see that they were already hiding in Zhou Jiao's space. There is no big mistake in being careful, although the situation is not tense now, but he is afraid that things will be exposed and danger in the famine year, and all the precautions he can do are carefully planned.
In an earthen house surrounded by a bamboo fence, Zhang Guoqing was wearing a cotton jacket and a hat, and only a pair of eyes were covered all over his body, and he was agreeing with the other party to trade in the woods at eight o'clock tonight. After negotiating and paying the deposit, he left in a hurry.
After the two parties agreed on the agreed time, Zhang Guoqing left the village, planning to go to the martial arts/equipment/department to see Zhao Dashan. He and Zhou Jiao are back, and they always have to say hello to him. Moreover, he has always said that he will go to the neighboring province to buy grain to see how he plans. If he doesn't, he plans to introduce him to a local grain seller. If he went, he would have to find Zhang's mother to help him take care of the children. How can you hide it privately without Zhou Jiao going over?
Zhang Guoqing came to Zhao Dashan's office. At the end of the year, the department is very idle. When Zhao Dashan saw him coming, he knew that he was okay and came to shop. Zhao Dashan glared at him fiercely.
Asked why, Zhang Guoqing laughed. He really didn't expect that Zhao Dashan and his wife would never forget to catch the sea. It's fashionable enough to catch the sea on this cold day. Knowing that he had bought a lot of fine grain in the bazaar, Zhang Guoqing was relieved. He really didn't expect that the two of them would wait for him to have time to set off together.
The two agreed to take their family to set off early on the weekend when the weather did not change, and then the two discussed the route and the supplies they needed to buy with great interest.
When leaving, Zhang Guoqing borrowed a truck. As soon as he returned home, with the help of Zhou Jiao, Zhang Guoqing deliberately drove a tarpaulin truck in front of people, went around the county seat, and ran to a village with fewer people in the distance.
