Chapter 13 The water is deep, so be smooth
"Mother, just now we heard that fat and bad aunt want to say goodbye to you, and ...... He also said he was going to sell us. It was the first time Dabao cried in front of Ji Wan.
Unexpectedly, these words were actually heard by the three little guys.
Ji Wan hurriedly comforted them, "Good baby, you must not have listened to what your mother said later." I rejected Widow Xu, and taught me a lesson, don't think about it, my mother won't find you a stepfather. ”
Erbao, a little skin ghost, cried with a 'wow', "Mother, you can't sell us, we are the most obedient, I will never go out to play football in the future and make myself muddy." ”
"Mother, I don't want such expensive books, mother, don't want us."
Xiaobao raised his little hand and tried to brush a wave of presence, "Xiaobao doesn't want delicious food, and he doesn't want firecrackers." ”
Ji Wan hugged the three little guys in his arms, "Mother won't want you, come, wipe our tears with our crying bag, we will pack up and go to town now." ”
Before going out, Ji Wan carried a basket, took out three large meat bags from the space, and wrapped them in a thick layer of cloth.
I also picked up two smoked bacon from the kitchen, which can be given to Sister Liu's family when the time comes, which can be regarded as a New Year's gift.
As soon as they went out, the three little ones were wearing exactly the same clothes and a small army-green satchel hanging on their bodies, which was very cute.
Ji Wan didn't ride this time, after all, the three children are not easy to ride.
"Good baby, are you all right? Would you like to take a break? ”
They were very considerate of Ji Wan, they walked by themselves all the way, and they didn't make a fuss to hug, and Ji Wan was also very worried along the way.
The three little guys shook their heads, "Mother, we are not tired, we can continue walking." ”
Unloading the back basket, Ji Wan took out the buns that had been put away, they were still hot, "Come, you three small, you must be hungry after walking for so long, eat quickly." ”
"Wow, meat buns, sure enough, there is a mother's child like a treasure." Erbao's small mouth is like smearing honey, which can always make Ji Wan happy.
After another fifteen minutes of walking, we finally arrived in town.
Winter has made the people in the town a lot depressed, and there is no longer the excitement of the past, but there are still many people who are still working to make a living.
Selling vegetables, pulling carts and selling firewood, abound.
After walking for another five minutes, you will arrive at Sister Liu's house, and the door is closed.
Ji Wan knocked on the door, and the person who opened the door was a middle-aged man, who was estimated to be Fang Maybe's father, carved out of a mold.
The only difference is that Fang may be a little fat man, and his father is a thin and tall man.
Ji Wan's tutor basically hadn't seen this middle-aged man for a month, and Sister Liu said that it was because his man was very busy, leaving early and returning late.
"You're my child's tutor!" The man recognized Ji Wan at a glance.
Ji Wan was also curious about how he recognized it, after all, the two had never met, "Yes, this time I came to visit the child." ”
"Come in!" The middle-aged man hurriedly stood aside and invited Ji Wan.
When I walked into the house, the heat on my face and the cold on my body were also dispelled a lot.
"Son, come down, your teacher is here." The middle-aged man stood at the bottom of the stairs and shouted upstairs with full of energy.
Not long after, the wooden board was "creaked" by Fang Xing's stepping, and I saw a small round ball rushing downstairs, "Teacher Xiaowan, why are you here?" ”
"I'll come to the town to buy something, I'll come and see you, and when the time comes, you can come to my house and live with these three little guys, so you can get acquainted with each other."
The three little ones were very polite, "Hello uncle, maybe hello brother." ”
"Perhaps, you take your three younger brothers to your room, and I will talk to your teacher about your studies."
Fang may also be an eight-year-old adult, and he is also very excited to see someone younger than himself, "Okay, it just so happens that my mother bought me a new toy." ”
After the children left, the middle-aged man introduced himself superficially, "My name is Fang Ye, and my daughter-in-law told me that you taught me very well, and Fang may have improved his English a lot." If this kid is not well-behaved, he scolds hard, and the bastard boy is scolded. ”
Is this a real father? The copied and pasted face does look like a real father.
"This kid is very obedient and serious in his studies, and he basically knows how to teach him once I teach him."
"That's good. I heard that you are going to work in the supply and marketing cooperative, and the water in the purchasing department is very deep. After speaking, Fang Ye looked at Ji Wan meaningfully.
She always felt that Fang Ye's eyes were telling her something, but she couldn't understand it now, "This, how to say it?" ”
Looking at Fang Ye's face, he probably didn't want to say anything, but he still mentioned a few words, "That's it, I've said it all, then let's make it clear." The purchasing department is a more popular department, many people can't get in, although tired, but they can buy things cheaper than the purchase price of the supply and marketing cooperatives. However, every time I go out to purchase, there are only two people, one is an old employee who drives a car, and the other is the person who registers to buy goods. The person who can decide on procurement is Lin Hai, director of the procurement department, who is cultured and has a lot of means. ”
Speaking of this, Fang Ye smiled mysteriously and took a sip of tea, "This Director Lin doesn't have any special hobbies, he just loves to drink, especially spirits and good wines. But good wine can't be bought at all, so it can be said that it is hard to find a lot of money. ”
Ji Wan nodded thoughtfully, and then took out two pieces of smoked bacon from the back basket, "Thank you, Mr. Fang, for your suggestion, I remember what you said." This is my home-made smoked bacon, which is a gift to your family, and I wish you a happy new year and a lot of money. This bacon is stir-fried when the time comes, and the stew is delicious. ”
"Oh! I'm just good at this, I haven't eaten it since I came to town, and my daughter-in-law won't make it, thank you so much. Fang Ye knew at a glance that he was a loyal fan of bacon, "You can smoke it, it should be smoked with peanut shells, I have eaten this bacon once on a business trip, and I can't buy it with money here." ”
After Ji Wan heard this, she gave a thumbs up, "It's an expert." I have something I want to trouble you. ”
"You're welcome." Fang Ye was addicted to bacon and couldn't extricate himself.
"I'm going to buy some things now, can I leave the child at your house first?"
"No problem, don't worry, I'll be optimistic."
Ji Wan thanked her and hurried away.
On the streets, the wind was cold, and everyone was wearing a scarf or hat.
"Sell turnips!"
"Cabbage, delicious cabbage."
……
Ji Wan went to the black market to see if there was anything good.
"How do you sell this pork kidneys and trotters?"
The tightly wrapped woman had a hoarse voice, "A pair of pig's kidneys is a dime, and a pig's trotters are a dime and a dime." ”
Most of these in front of the women were fresh, and there was a fishy smell of blood on them.
At this time, there are very few people who buy pork kidneys, after all, it is pig kidneys, and you can buy a pound of pork with a dime.
The pork kidneys shrank greatly after cooking, and they are not eaten, but they are very suitable for pregnant women.
After the second sister-in-law and the eldest sister-in-law became pregnant, they loved to eat very much, and their mouths never stopped, but if they ate too much, they were too fat, so they made something that could be gnawed on daily.
Ordinary pig's trotters are more than a pound, this pig's trotters are larger than the usual one, it seems that the family is very good at raising pigs, and the price is also very affordable.
"I want the pig's trotters, and your remaining three pairs of pig's kidneys are also wrapped."
After Ji Wan paid the money, she bought some old tofu again, and when the time came, she made tofu balls that were crispy on the outside and tender on the inside.
The space was full of tender tofu, and I ran to several vegetable markets at that time and didn't buy old tofu.
After snooping for a while, I saw a fruit seller, with black rags on the floor, and several baskets full of apples.
Sure enough, you can't expect any other fruit in this era, not even pears.
Fortunately, there is space, and pears are not a very rare fruit, but there are fewer people selling them here.
After buying these things, Ji Wan looked around and ran into the dark alley.
Immediately rushed into the space and began to make a big purchase.
There are three oversized barrels in the space, which Ji Wan specially went to buy.
It is full of fish, and according to the laws of natural reproduction, there are more and more fish in it.
I caught a few black fish, pork, two extra fat pigeons, and there were not many New Year's goods at home, and I also took a bag of melon seeds......
The flour is almost gone, and the rice is still enough to eat.
A large basket was full of food, and it was heavy to carry.
After purchasing, Ji Wan went to Fang May's house to pick up the child back.
When she went, Sister Liu was still not at home, and after saying goodbye to Fang Ye, Ji Wan left.
"Mother, maybe my brother played a lot of games for us, and Uncle Fang gave us such a big apple." Xiaobao gestured with his two little hands to the apple he ate today.
Ji Wan smiled, "Then maybe my brother is here, as the little master of the family, you have to take good care of him." ”
Erbao jumped naughtily in front, and immediately turned around when he heard Ji Wan's words, "Of course, we like maybe my brother, and we will definitely take care of him." ”
Along the way, three little troublemakers have been using the snow on the road, snowball fights, and the whole path is the whisper of children.
