Chapter 66: Visiting Geng Changqing

Because he had a big meal at noon, Su Mo didn't cook at night, so he took two buns from the space and ate them for dinner.

I washed a bunch of grapes as after-dinner fruits, and these scarce and difficult to transport fruits could only be eaten by myself.

Taking care of herself, Su Mo closed the doors and windows as usual and started her great business of knitting sweaters.

Knitting sweaters is a delicate job, according to the book, if she knits morning and evening, it is estimated that it will take a week to knit, if she only knits at night, it is estimated that it will take half a month or more.

Su Mo planned to knit diligently, knit the sweater as soon as possible, and send it to Lu Changzheng before the snow.

Anyway, there are many people who go up the mountain to harvest autumn during this time, and she doesn't plan to go up the mountain again at this time, and she will wait for this time.

Her battery still has half of the charge, and according to her current usage, it is estimated that it can last for about a month, but she must also fully charge the battery before the snow to ensure the electricity problem in winter.

After weaving for about a while, Su Mo fell asleep.

The next day, I got up early in the morning and took care of the vegetable patch for a while.

In the past, when Su Mo sprinkled seeds, they were directly thrown, so some local vegetables grew densely.

Su Mo first reduced the burden on the radish field, pulled out some radish seedlings in the dense places, and left those with more vigorous energy, ensuring that the remaining radish seedlings had enough space to produce large radish.

With such a pull, a basket full of radish seedlings was pulled. Tender radish seedlings are very delicious, and they are a must when used to roll meat broth or egg soup, even if they are fried, they are not bad, and naturally they cannot be wasted.

Su Mo accepted part of it into the space, and divided the rest into two parts, one for herself at noon, and one for Li Yue'e at noon.

After giving ginseng an ability, Su Mo sat on the kang and knitted a sweater.

At ten o'clock, Su Mo heard Li Yue'e calling her: "The third family, are you at home?" ”

Su Mo was sitting on the kang, so he was not ready to go down to greet him, and shouted by the window: "Mother, I'm in the house, you come in." ”

Li Yue'e came in with a bamboo basket, and saw Su Mo knitting a sweater on the kang, which had already been knitted for a short time, and asked with a smile: "This is the sweater knitted for the Long March?" ”

"Hmm." Su Mo nodded.

Li Yue'e wiped her hands with her clothes, reached out and touched it, it was very soft and comfortable, and exclaimed: "The third family, you are pure wool?" ”

Su Mo smiled and said, "Yes." ”

Li Yue'e smacked her tongue, pure wool is very valuable, and the third family is really willing.

It's a man who hurts!

"Mother, what are you looking for me?" Su Mo asked.

Li Yue'e sat down on the side of the kang, lifted the cloth covering the bamboo basket, and took out two pieces of cloth from it.

"The third family, this plaid cloth was given to you by Xiaolan, you make your own clothes to wear. She was very happy when you gave her a good shirt, and she kept remembering it. Li Yue'e said.

"When you got married, she was not too different from the previous two brothers, so she didn't send it. No, a beautiful cloth came, and it was immediately ripped off, so let me bring it to you. ”

Su Mo was a little surprised, she didn't expect Lu Xiaolan to tear cloth to make clothes for her.

"Mother, the family doesn't need to say such extraneous words. When I was hospitalized, Xiaolan took special leave to take care of me, and it was nothing to send a piece of clothing. I have a lot of clothes, so let's make my own clothes for Xiaolan with this cloth. ”

In these years, cloth tickets are very rare, pulling such a large piece of cloth, Lu Xiaolan is afraid that she has also saved up cloth tickets for a long time.

"She gives it to you, and you keep it. She works in the supply and marketing cooperative, and they will have defective cloth to deal with from time to time, and she wants the cloth, which is easier than us. Li Yue'e said, "It's just that you don't go out and talk about it, so as not to worry about the eldest and second family." ”

Li Yue'e gave the plaid cloth to Su Mo and put it on the kang, then took another piece of black cloth and said to Su Mo: "This is what my mother pulled for you, you make a pair of pants by yourself, just to make a new dress." ”

Su Mo hurriedly stopped knitting the sweater, waved his hand and said, "Mother, I have enough clothes to wear, really." You take it back and make it for yourself or my father. ”

Li Yue'e pressed down Su Mo's hand and said, "This is also to be taken away, it is our old man's heart." was supposed to pull it for you when you got married, but the third child didn't tear the cloth to make new clothes for you. ”

Su Mo defended Lu Changzheng, "He gave me the cloth ticket, but I didn't do it again because I had a lot of clothes." The cloth I use to make cotton clothes is pulled from that cloth ticket. ”

Li Yue'e smiled, "That's different. Anyway, you can keep this cloth with peace of mind, and when spring begins, make yourself new clothes to wear. ”

Li Yue'e said so, and Su Mo also accepted it, "Then thank you Niang and Xiaolan." ”

Li Yue'e smiled and waved her hand.

"When the family was separated, the third child suffered a big loss, but his father and mother couldn't help it, he was the most promising, and when he was still in the family, he could only let him pull it out. Now that you are married, your father's and mother's tasks for them have been completed, and the family has been separated, you can just live your own life. ”

Su Mo said that he understood, in this era, isn't it all about paying attention to a big family, and it is the norm to be poor in terms of income. Li Yue'e and her husband are already very enlightened, and after they both became families, they divided their families and let everyone live their own lives.

If you meet your in-laws who still have to control the economic power after marriage, it will be difficult to do that day.

Li Yue'e nodded with satisfaction, she was afraid that the third family would have a pimple in her heart.

"You're a good one. You knit a sweater, my mother is back. ”

Li Yue'e got up and was about to leave, Su Mo hurriedly got off the kang and gave the radish seedlings to Li Yue'e, Li Yue'e took it with a smile and went back.

In the afternoon, Su Mo used a net bag to pack chestnuts and walnuts, and some sun-dried hazelnut mushrooms. I also used a sack of chestnut walnuts and a large bag of hazel mushrooms. I also wrote a letter about the situation here, and stuffed it into a sack.

The net bag is ready to be given to Geng Changqing, and the sack is ready to be mailed to Su Tingde.

Putting the things in the bamboo basket, Su Mo rode off on the bike.

I went to the commune post office first and mailed things to the uncle, because of the distance, it cost 1 yuan for postage.

Then he carried the things in his net pocket and entered the commune office building.

After telling the officer on the first floor that she was Geng Changqing's niece, after looking for him, the officer on the first floor shook the phone, and soon a young man came down to pick her up.

"I'm Fu Ming, Secretary of the Party Committee, and Secretary Geng asked me to take you up." The young man said.

Su Mo followed Fu Ming all the way up to the 3rd floor to Geng Changqing's office.

When Su Mo entered, Geng Changqing was eating with a lunch box, and the rice was already cold, clumping together. Geng Changqing took a hot water bottle and poured some hot water, mixed it and continued to eat.

Seeing Su Mo looking at him in surprise, he pointed to the stool on the side of the table, "What are you doing standing stupidly, sit." ”

"Uncle Geng, why are you only eating now?" Su Mo came here in the afternoon because he thought that he should not be so busy in the afternoon.

After all, isn't it busy in the morning and a little more relaxed in the afternoon? In the memory of the original owner, this is how her work is.

Geng Changqing smiled, "During this time, I have to prepare for the payment of public grain, and I am a little busy." In fact, there is no day when he is not busy, and it is common for him to forget to eat.

Su Mo lifted the net pocket on his hand, "Uncle Geng, I went up the mountain to collect some mountain goods during this time, and I will send you some to taste." ”

"You went up the mountain to pick it up yourself?"

Su Mo nodded.

Geng Changqing smiled, "I didn't expect you to do this." ”

Su Mo smiled, "Everyone has come to the countryside, so let's follow the customs." ”

"Okay, you picked it up with your own hands, I want to taste it anyway, let it go." Geng Changqing pointed to the table by the window.

Su Mo went over, put the net bag on the table, and then came back to sit down.

Geng Changqing finished the meal in two bites, wiped his mouth with a handkerchief, and then got up and poured a glass of water for Su Mo.

"Why are you free to come to me today?"

Su Mo smiled awkwardly, "Isn't this the mountain goods that I picked up and dried, so hurry up and send them to Uncle Geng to taste." ”

He explained: "Uncle Geng, I really didn't know that you were here, and the family didn't tell me." As soon as I got to the township, I had no time to come to the commune, and I didn't know the leadership here. ”

Geng Changqing waved his hand, "Don't get in the way, come to me if you have anything in the future." ”

Su Mo nodded.

Geng Changqing opened the drawer, took out a stack of money tickets from it and handed it to Su Mo, "Take it, you have to use money in a lot of places." ”

Su Mo's eyes flashed, listening to what he meant, it seemed that she knew about her sending things to her parents, so she asked tentatively, "You know?" ”

Geng Changqing nodded, "Xiao Mo, you did a good job." If there's anything you can't do in the future, come to me. However, you should also be on your own. ”

There are some things that it is indeed more convenient for Su Mo to come forward than him.

Su Mo nodded hurriedly, he could make it clear that he was willing to help.

After all, this Uncle Geng, in the memory of the original owner, has not seen him for three or four years, and she doesn't know what his attitude is.

Geng Changqing pushed the money ticket forward again, "Take the money." When I was a child, I didn't ask me to buy you candy to eat, but now I'm polite? ”

Su Mo smiled and took the money.

Ay! It's hard to get used to the days when people are trying to give her money to spend everywhere.
