Leng Chenxu watched Tang Xiaofu get on the bus to Rag Street before turning to leave, and suddenly felt a little melancholy in his heart, how many years have he not felt this way? He asked himself in his heart.

Tang Xiaofu went to Rag Street to buy a sack of woolen yarn, and prepared to go home to knit sweaters and pants for herself and her mother and sister.

Rural people only wear a shirt and pants in winter, and then wear cotton jackets and pants outside, even if the cotton jacket and cotton pants are thick, they are hollow, not warm, you have to wear a sweater and pants inside to keep warm, she also bought a few needles for the sweater, and then hurriedly took the last bus back home.

When I got home, it was already more than five o'clock in the afternoon, but the sky was already dark, the weather was not good this morning, Tang Xiaofu was afraid that it would rain, but fortunately, the sky was beautiful, although the sky was gloomy and windy, but it didn't rain.

Fang Wenjing and Xiaolan were preparing to cook dinner at home, when they heard Tang Xiaofu's call from outside the door, both of them were surprised, Xiaolan rushed over to open the door, and when she saw that it was really Tang Xiaofu, she was so happy that she almost burst into tears, took the things in her hand and let her into the house.

Fang Wenjing asked her about the hard journey, and at the same time hurriedly poured a basin of hot water for Tang Xiaofu to wash her face and hands.

After Tang Xiaofu washed her hands and face, Xiaolan had already moved a chair and put it by the brazier for Tang Xiaofu to sit on, and then poured hot water for her to drink.

Tang Xiaofu took a few sips of hot water, first answered Fang Wenjing and Xiaolan's questions, told them all the things that had happened in the past seven days, and skipped the paragraph in Jianming's house without mentioning a word, and then asked Xiaolan to bring scissors, she removed the handkerchief sewn on the autumn coat, and took out the 3,300 yuan with body temperature.

Fang Wenjing and Xiaolan heard that she was living in Captain Leng's house these days, so they were relieved, she took the thick wad of money handed over by her eldest daughter, she was a little frightened, in just seven days, the eldest daughter earned back more than 3,000 yuan, it was too unreal, she and Xiaolan pulled each other's thighs to believe that everything was not a dream.

Fang Wenjing solemnly sewed the money and the previous money into the cotton clothes he was wearing, and still sat next to Tang Xiaofu, and said reluctantly: "Then you live in Captain Leng's house, don't Captain Leng have to move out again?" ”

"No, he has enough rooms to sleep in one room, so he didn't move out." Tang Xiaofu drank hot water, looked at the room, and saw several chairs, all of which were new, and the jujube paint looked particularly bright under the light, and asked, "Where did these new chairs come from?" ”

"Ah~" Fang Wenjing was a little distracted, and didn't hear what Tang Xiaofu said later.

Xiaolan replied: "It was given by the eldest uncle, and the eldest uncle heard that we were separated from the Tang family, so I came to see it, and when I saw that it was true, he sent us a few chairs and rice, but my mother didn't ask for it, saying that we had enough to eat."

The second uncle also sent some cotton and a small pot of vegetable oil, and my mother made a brand new cotton clothes and cotton pants for the two of us. ”

Fang Wenjing's mother's house is thirty miles away from here, and the market is not the market of Wufu Town, so it is not very easy to communicate with each other, unless it is about the same as asking someone to bring the letter.

However, Fang Wenjing's mother and daughter moved out of the Tang family, and they didn't have someone to bring a letter to Fang Wenjing's uncle, because they were afraid that those cousins would break the bank if they knew that she moved out, and her mother and daughter had only benefited from a few uncles over the years, and they couldn't give them anything, so they tried not to trouble them, but as soon as the two uncles got the news, they rushed over, and they were still doing their best to help them, which really made people feel warm in their hearts.

Tang Xiaofu muttered, "Uncle, they're so good. He asked Fang Wenjing, "Have you made the new clothes that my mother wants to make for the two uncles' families?" ”

Fang Wenjing said worriedly: "Xiaofu, you have been living in Captain Leng's house for the past few days, and my mother is worried that there will be rumors~"

Tang Xiaofu was stunned for a moment, when she borrowed Leng Chenxu's house, she didn't think about it so much at all, but now that she thinks about it, there is really such a hidden danger, but everything has happened, so she can only hope that nothing will happen, so she said: "It shouldn't be~ Who dares to create a rumor about the head of Leng Regiment." Besides, the provincial capital is so far away from here, even if there are rumors, it can't be spread here. ”

Fang Wenjing felt that it made sense when she heard what she said, so she put her mind at ease and told her that there was a lot of odd pieces of cloth she bought, and she made a new set of clothes for her two uncles' families and her eldest grandparents and grandmothers, and planned to bring them over when she went to her second uncle's house to eat pig-killing rice in a few days, so that they could wear them for the New Year.

and also gave Aunt Wang Kui's family two pieces of fabric, people always help them, and they should also express their gratitude.

Tang Xiaofu asked, "All those odd pieces of cloth have been used up?" ”

"How many sacks are gone? There is still a sack of the best looking left, and I will leave it to your two sisters to make clothes later. ”

Tang Xiaofu estimated in her heart that Fang Wenjing had made a lot of new clothes in the past seven days, and sighed: "It's been really hard for my mother these days, so many new clothes are lost to you." ”

Fang Wenjing said with a smile: "I'm not tired, I cut it this time and sent it to the sewing shop in the town to lock it and process it into ready-to-wear clothes, and it only took three days before and after, and in the past few days, I have mainly been giving my mother and three new shoes to wear in the New Year with your grandfather and grandmother." ”

Tang Xiaofu smiled and told Fang Wenjing and Xiaolan that she had also brought gifts back.

The mother and daughter leaned together and watched Tang Xiaofu take out the same gift she brought back.

Tang Xiaofu took out the White Rabbit Milk Candy first, and when the three catties of White Rabbit Milk Candy were bought, it was divided into three points, Tang Xiaofu opened a package, took out two White Rabbit Milk Candy, and gave Fang Wenjing and Xiaolan a taste: "This White Rabbit Milk Candy is delicious, our family keeps one catty, and the eldest uncle and the second uncle's family each have one catty, and the eldest grandfather and grandmother may not be able to eat it, so I didn't sell it to them." ”

Fang Wenjing smiled and said, "Your grandfather and grandmother are all fine." She didn't take the white rabbit toffee, and put it back in its place.

Tang Xiaofu knew that she was reluctant to eat, Xiaolan peeled off the candy paper and put the White Rabbit toffee in her mouth, and ate it with a cherished face.

"Ahh I didn't know that my grandfather and grandmother could eat hard things! Tang Xiaofu exclaimed, "Fortunately, I bought longan meat for my grandfather and grandmother." ”

"Did you buy longan meat? How much is a pound? Fang Wenjing asked in surprise, longan meat is very expensive, not something that ordinary people can eat, let alone the countryside, and the supply and marketing cooperatives don't sell it at all.

"Ten bucks." Tang Xiaofu took out two packets of longan meat from the canvas bag.

"Don't buy something so expensive, you should buy something else." Fang Wenjing said, it's not that she doesn't want to give her uncle and them good things, but she also feels sorry for her eldest daughter's difficulty in making money, it's only been seven days, and the skin on her face that blows in the cold wind every day is a little rough, and it's distressing to see it.
