Lin Lan and the others had just had lunch, and Yao Xiuyun and her colleagues brought a few large bags of old clothes and old cotton wool to the pastry shop.

Yao Xiuyun handed her an envelope: "This is donated by colleagues in the institute, and those clothes are old clothes taken by colleagues in the institute, both for children and adults." I ask you to take it to the victims in the mountains. ”

It turned out that Yao Xiuyun and Yang Xiaoman learned about the disaster in Shishanling from several children, and the two searched out all the old clothes at home, and mentioned the matter to their colleagues at work.

Some of the people took clothes, some donated money, and they gathered a few large bags of clothes in the morning, as well as more than 200 yuan in cash.

Lin Lan looked at Yao Xiuyun gratefully: "Thank you, thank you, we thank you for the folks in Shishanling." She felt that she had said the most in the past two days.

Qiao Hui also bowed gratefully to Yao Xiuyun and the policeman: "Thank you, sister-in-law, thank you comrade police." ”

The young man hurriedly bowed: "Thank you, you're welcome, you're welcome." ”

Yao Xiuyun laughed after seeing it: "Xiao Guo only came last month, and he is thin-skinned, and he blushes when he sees his sister." ”

Lin Lan said with a smile: "People are young people, you think they are like you, an old fritter." ”

Yao Xiuyun glared at her: "Dare to say that I am an old fritter, see how I clean you up when I go back." ”

Lin Lan hurriedly surrendered: "I was wrong, you are not an old fritter......"

"Okay, spare your life for now." Yao Xiuyun said, "We are still at work, so we will go back first, and these things will be handed over to the victims." ”

"I just made a peanut cowza in the morning, I'll pack a little for you and bring it back for everyone to taste, thank you."

Lin Lan and Qiaohui picked up some peanuts and cow candy, and some of the various cakes were also picked up and put in baskets, and Yao Xiuyun and Xiao Guo took them away.

Tong Xinglan smiled and turned Qiaohui: "That policeman just now was really funny!" ”

Lin Lan thought about it and felt funny: "You didn't listen to Xiuyun, you just came with a thin skin." ”

Qiaohui looked at the clothes worn by those children and said happily: "Cousin, Xinglan, you see, these old clothes are better than those children on the team." ”

Lin Lan: "Most of the families in the unit are dual-income workers and have a fixed source of income, and the children's clothes are better than those of the children in the countryside. In addition, family planning has become stricter in the past two years, and there are more old clothes left. ”

Tong Xinglan nodded: "That's it, my family, my brother, my parents, and sister-in-law, the amount of work earned by one person a year is only a few dozen yuan at the end of the year, and it is only a few dollars a month, so how can I be willing to buy fabric to make clothes." ”

Qiaohui said: "There are even fewer in the mountains, and we all weave our own cloth to make clothes to wear." ”

Lin Lan thought to herself that she would do it herself, but many people were tired all year round and couldn't even do enough food and clothing.

"Someone looks at the clothes." Tong Xinglan said and ran towards the cart, and several people got busy.

Before the store closed in the afternoon, the clothes on the cart were also sold out.

Before dark, Hou Bing and Li Wu sent all the things they purchased to Limin Road.

The soldiers helped to buy some homespun cloth and muslin cloth, all of which were low-grade fabrics with threaded ends or unevenly dyed, which were cheaper.

The two of them didn't make a penny, and the freight was still shoehorned into them by Li Xiangyang.

After the department store closed, Li Xiangyang drove the Dongfeng car to the front of the Chengdong restaurant and loaded the grain, salt and utensils on the stove that were stacked there.

He took Lin Guoliang brothers, Zhou Shishi, and Zhou Dashu to Limin Road, loaded clothes, grain, cotton, and cloth into the car, drove the car back to Yucai Road, and prepared to leave for Shilian early the next morning.

The two entered the alley and drove to the door of the house, and Xiaodouzi, Dandan and Xiaohai ran out of the yard and stood in front of the car: "Wow, big truck." ”

Li Xiangyang honked the horn, and Lin Lan smiled and said, "What are you doing standing in front of the car?" ”

A couple of children ran to the door of the car, tiptoeing and shouting, "We're going to take a big truck, we're going to take a big truck." ”

Lin Lan got out of the car and patted it: "Naughty, the car has arrived at the door, and I am still noisily taking the car." ”

Several children climbed into the car and crowded into the cab, Li Xiangyang drove the car into the yard, turned off the engine and took off the key: "Okay, get out of the car and eat." ”

Dandan and Xiaohai squeezed towards the steering wheel: "We have already eaten, but the beans have not been eaten yet." ”

"If you eat, you have to get out of the car, the car is not a place for you to play." Li Xiangyang got out of the car with one in one hand, turned around and hugged Xiaodouzi out of the car.

He looked at the three of them and said, "These things in the car have to be sent to the mountains, I want to get up in the car tomorrow morning, go into the mountains with me, and help carry the grain to the rocky mountains." ”

"I'll see if it's heavy, we can't carry it if it's heavy." Dandan stood up and glanced at it, wanting to see what was in the carriage to determine if Li Xiangyang was lying to them.

Xiaodouzi grabbed him: "Brother Dandan, I saw that Uncle Li Wu sent all the food, and we couldn't carry it." ”

Dandan touched his head: "You are small, I am big, and my back moves." ”

Xiao Hai also puffed up his chest: "Beans, you have to eat more, you see that you are so small." ”

Xiaodouzi frowned and looked at the two: "I was originally younger than you." ”

"Little thing! Don't give up if you don't get to the Yellow River! Li Xiangyang smiled and rubbed his head, untied the tarpaulin, picked him up and looked at it, "Look, is your back moving?" ”

Dandan saw the grain piled on it, and shook his head again and again: "It's such a big bag, I can't carry it." ”

Li Xiangyang put him down and slapped him on the buttocks: "Go play." ”

"Oh!" Dandan rubbed his buttocks and looked at Xiaodouzi, "Hurry up and eat it, and when the children next door come out, we will fight guerrilla warfare." ”

Xiao Hai nodded: "Yes, let's cooperate well and take them down." ”

After the holidays, several children and children living in the alleys also got acquainted with each other and often played together. For a while, the officers and soldiers caught robbers, and for a while, the Eighth Route Army suppressed bandits and fought guerrillas, and the sun was so big during the day that it was as if it couldn't feel the heat.

"I'll tell you the battle plan in a moment." Dandan pulled Xiaodouzi and Xiaohai to squat aside, and the three of them got together and whispered: "Remember, come out quickly after eating." ”

Xiaodouzi nodded: "Remember, I eat quickly, and I will eat it right away." Then he turned and ran into the house.

Li Xiangyang and Lin Lan looked at the children with tears and laughter, and were just about to enter the house for dinner, when the old lady and Yang Xiaoman walked into the courtyard.

The old lady said to Lin Lan: "You have to send things over tomorrow?" Can it be delivered to them in a day? ”

Lin Lan shook her head: "I heard that the road on their side has not been open since it collapsed, so I have to pull it to Shilian first, and then use a mule to camel into the mountain." ”

"Alas!" The old lady sighed, "This is not good in the mountains, and it is not convenient to enter and exit at all." ”

Yang Xiaoman said: "When they send the food in, as long as everyone has food to eat and clothes to wear, it will be fine slowly." ”

"It's all up to everyone's help, and Xiuyun also gave you the money and things you donated."

Lao Li came out of the house and said happily to a few people: "Have you eaten?" If you haven't eaten, you will come to my house to eat together. ”

The old lady smiled and said, "After eating, you eat slowly." ”
