Chapter 37 The production teams first 28-inch bumper car
It was more than 20 kilometers long, and it was also carrying New Year's goods. This trip also took more than three hours, which was about the same speed as the tractor.
But this is nothing to Liu Limin. People in this era have a good labor force. Even if they carry a hundred kilograms, they can walk more than 20 kilometers. Riding a bicycle is still very easy, but the road is not good and it is not fast.
stand up.
When we arrived at Dingxin Commune, we met many acquaintances along the way. Liu Limin greeted the villagers with a smile, which was very enviable.
You must know that the entire Dingxin Commune only has a few 28-inch cars. The production team where Liu Limin works does not have even one. Now Liu Limin has taken the lead and has become the first person to own a car.
.
Before he reached home, which was only a few hundred meters away, Liu Limin rang the bell on the car.
duang!duang!
The ringtone could be heard from far away. When the three siblings Liu Lixin, Liu Lixia and Liu Lihui heard the ringtone, they ran out and saw that the eldest brother was really back!
The sky is getting dark, but you can still see that the eldest brother is riding this two-eighth big bar, which is so handsome. The key is that he also pulls a lot of things on the car, which are all the abundant new year's goods this year.
The three little ones ran out with their arms crossed and faced Liu Limin.
Liu Lixin was the first to rush to his eldest brother, touching the 28 big bars excitedly and saying: "Brother, can I ride this car?"
Liu Limin smiled and said: "You can ride it, but you all have to learn. This bicycle is not something you can just get on and ride. You have to master the balance. When you are free, big brother will teach you!"
Liu Lihui looked at the big bags of things in front and behind the 28 big bar, and said happily: "Brother, there are so many old goods, our family's Chinese New Year this year is much better than last year!"
Liu Limin smiled and said: "Yes, we will have a good harvest this year, and next year will be even better. Okay, hurry up and move all these new year's goods into the house!"
At this time, mother Wang also came out, and her face was filled with joy when she saw the children returning to the house after carrying all their belongings.
Think about the Chinese New Year in the past, it was really shabby. Not to mention buying so many years old goods, we didn’t even have enough food to eat, and we couldn’t wear warm clothes.
Now things are getting better, the eldest brother is promising, and the three younger ones are about to grow up. When Wang thinks of her two men who have left, she feels sad in her heart.
Seeing Liu Limin was like seeing his first husband. He left only such a son and now changed his surname.
This kid has a personality just like his father, very fiery, but in the past few months, he seems to have become a different person. He has become successful and earned a lot of money, which is why he has the good life he has now.
Regarding his three half-brothers and sisters, Liu Limin was no different from his half-brothers. He had no selfish motives at all and spent whatever money he had.
There are a lot of New Year's goods purchased this time, and many of them are for younger brothers and sisters.
After putting away all the New Year's goods, Liu Limin said with a smile: "Tomorrow we will go to the supply and marketing cooperative to buy a few new quilts. This winter is really getting colder day by day!"
Mrs. Wang said with tears in her eyes: "Okay, okay, our whole family will go to the supply and marketing cooperative tomorrow."
Liu Lixin said in confusion: "Mom, why are you crying? Now that our family's conditions are better, you should be happy!"
Mrs. Wang quickly wiped her eyes and said with a smile: "Mom is so happy. Oh, seeing you all grow up, mom has completed her mission!"
Liu Limin smiled and said: "Mom, you are really tired for the sake of us, but now, you can retire with peace of mind. I will take care of this family in the future."
Mrs. Wang chuckled and said: "Boss is good at talking. Mom can't retire yet. She has to worry about all the big and small things in this family. When you get married and have children, I won't be able to take care of your children!"
Liu Lihui giggled and said, "Mom is right, brother, when will you marry your sister-in-law back home?"
Liu Limin looked at the house and said with a wry smile: "Second sister, look at our house. Is there any girl willing to marry into our house? We can only talk about this when we have money and build a new house.
ah!"
Indeed, Liu Limin's house is really too shabby now, and several members of his family are crowded into three rooms. This house is still a string house built more than 20 years ago, with a few logs and some bamboo.
The fence is plaited and the walls are made of yellow mud. There are holes everywhere. The roof is made of bamboo and straw. When it rains, water will drip.
So building a house is also a big deal.
However, Liu Limin has thought about it and will build it if he wants. The money he has now is not enough. He will try to earn more money next year and build a row of small green tiles by then. Each of his younger brothers and sisters will have an independent house.
The room is perfect.
The next morning, the family happily walked to the commune. They also met many acquaintances on the road. When they saw Liu Limin riding a brand-new 28-meter bar with Liu Lixin behind him, they were all envious and followed Wang one after another.
Shi said, this good day has come.
The boss of your family is so promising. Hearing these compliments, Mrs. Wang is really happy. In the past, because she was poor, she was always laughed at in secret and could not even hold her head up. Now she is better and can walk easily.
He holds his head high and his chest high.
A woman in her fifties asked: "Sister Wang, how much did it cost to buy that 28-inch bumper car in your family? My boy is also thinking about saving up money and buying one too."
Mrs. Wang chuckled and said: "It's not expensive, only 200 yuan. Limin bought a 28-meter large bicycle to facilitate work. Some patients live far away and when the situation is urgent, riding a bicycle is faster than walking."
There are more. In the future, you can also use a cart to pull the rice and pack the grain."
When they arrived at the commune, Liu Limin's big 28-inch car immediately attracted the attention of many people.
The supply and marketing cooperatives are very busy now. The Chinese New Year is coming soon, and every household has to buy new year's goods. It's just that those who have money buy more, and those who don't have money buy less.
Now Liu Limin has made a lot of money. He bought four quilts in one go, as well as several pairs of new shoes, a new washbasin, and some pots and pans. For the New Year, he had to change everything.
new.
Liu Limin's family returned home with a full load today. In addition to pulling a lot of 28 big bars, everyone in the family went home carrying New Year's goods on their backs.
New Year's Eve is just a few days away. From now on, everyone is preparing for the New Year's feast, killing chickens and ducks. As for killing pigs, there are very few. After all, a pig is not cheap.
Today, Liu Limin and his family killed a big rooster, an old duck, and a rabbit. They were all raised by themselves at no cost. Of course, fish are indispensable during the Chinese New Year, and there will be more than enough every year.
This fish is easy to catch. Not far from the door is the Rongxi River, and you can catch quite a few in just one afternoon.
