"What are you two doing?" Li Tongyun was startled when his left and right arms were grabbed. Li Baoyu saw that the naughty kid had run away. He laughed dryly and said to Li Tongyun: "What's wrong with me... I'm afraid that kid will take it."
Thing, I want to protect you."
When Li Tongyun heard this, she felt warm in her heart. As she said herself, Li Dazhi changed jobs every now and then, and when she came to a new environment, she was surrounded by strangers. She also had a stubborn personality, so she didn't have many friends.
Now that they have arrived in Yong'an Forest District, Li Tongyun has found an organization. "Huh?" At this time, Wang Meilan held Ma Ling with one hand and waved to Li Tongyun with the other, saying: "Come on, my daughter, I will buy you some candied haws."
Li Tongyun smiled and walked over quickly.
There was a man selling candied haws on a cart next to that road. There was a pile tied to the handle of the cart, and more than thirty bunches of candied haws were stuck on the pile.
As soon as Wang Meilan saw the candied haws, she immediately thought of her children at home and said to the hawker, "I want all these from you."
"What?" The vendor with his hands in his sleeves was stunned. He made candied haws at home in the morning and came out after lunch. As soon as he stopped here, before he had time to shout, the man making the balls came.
Who wants to stand outside on a cold day? It would be nice to go home early.
There were a total of thirty-four bunches of candied haws, and Wang Meilan bought them all.
Normally, there is no package of candied haws on a stick, but Wang Meilan couldn't resist the demand. The vendor couldn't give Wang Meilan the stack, so he ran into the store and asked the pastry seller on the first floor for a piece of butter paper, and then went out to wrap up the remaining candied haws.
.
Wang Meilan picked off the first bunch of candied haws and gave it to Ma Ling, and the second bunch to Li Tongyun.
As soon as Li Tongyun took the candied haws, he saw the naughty boy rushing out with his box cannon again.
The naughty boy stood still and just raised his gun when he saw Li Tongyun waving the candied haws at him.
The naughty boy's eyes instantly straightened.
Immediately afterwards, Li Tongyun opened his mouth, and with a "click" sound, he bit a hawthorn into his mouth.
As he chewed, Li Tongyun's cheeks puffed up.
When the naughty child saw this, he turned around and ran away. After a while, a burst of crying children came from deep in the alley.
The hawker pedaled away, and a group of people from the Zhao Family Chamber of Commerce, led by Wang Meilan, walked into the department store.
Looking at Wang Meilan walking in front, Zhao Jun recalled the first time he and Wang Meilan went to Daohua County. Wang Meilan was at a loss as soon as they got off the car. Compared with that day, Wang Meilan's temperament had changed dramatically.
Today is not Sunday, and it is not the time after get off work. There are not many customers in the department store in the afternoon.
"Oranges!" Wang Meilan's eyes lit up when she saw the oranges in the bamboo basket.
These year's oranges are not big, and their skins are not shiny, but they taste very good.
"How much does this cost per pound?" Wang Meilan pointed at the oranges and asked the salesperson. The salesperson said: "Eighty-five cents."
This is not cheap.
Although forestry workers like Zhao Jun and others earn dozens of dollars a month, their families have money to live on. Not many people in the city are willing to buy oranges.
"How much is this basket..." Wang Meilan was pulled away by Zhao Jun before she could finish her words.
"Mom, let's buy it when we get back." Zhao Jun raised his hand and pointed upstairs and said to Wang Meilan, "Don't we want to buy a rice cooker?"
"Yes!" Wang Meilan was reminded and walked upstairs with ease. The TV in the east room of her house was bought upstairs.
Ma Ling is also familiar with this place. The down jacket, jeans, and hairpins she is wearing were all bought upstairs.
There is also wool. Last time Zhao Jun was upstairs, he bought two kilograms of red wool for Ma Ling and asked Ma Ling to knit a sweater for her.
When they got upstairs, everyone dispersed. Wang Meilan and Jin Xiaomei went to see the rice cooker. Zhao Chun, Ma Ling, Li Tongyun, and Xu Chunyan went to see the knitting yarn. The old lady, Mr. Xie Sun wanted to buy needles, thread, and knitting. Li Baoyu, and Li Ruhai rushed to sell books.
place.
Zhao Jun, Zhao Youcai, and Jie Chen had nothing to buy and were wandering aimlessly on the second floor.
Suddenly, Zhao Youcai dragged Zhao Jun to a corner and said, "Bring me fifty yuan."
"Dad, what do you want to buy?" Although Zhao Jun had already reached into his pocket to pay, he still asked Zhao Youcai.
"I'm going to buy a cigarette." Zhao Youcai said this. Zhao Jun was startled and said, "Didn't you just unpack the one at home?"
If you want fifty, you must buy Stone Forest.
Recently, Wang Meilan and Zhao Jun discussed that after the stone forest at home is cleared, Zhao Youcai will be cleared to welcome the spring. Now that their family is in the entrepreneurial stage, every penny should be spent wisely.
Zhao Jun agrees with Wang Meilan's point of view. What kind of family does it smoke in the stone forest every day?
"I have to do something." Zhao Jun frowned when he heard these words and said, "Dad, what do you want to do?"
What puzzled Zhao Jun was not that Zhao Youcai had to do something. It was that in the Yong'an Forest District, what kind of thing did his family need to ask for help? Who could let their family suffer such a heavy blood loss?
"You kid, what are you asking about?" Zhao Youcai looked back and didn't see Wang Meilan coming. Then he turned back and urged Zhao Jun: "Hurry!"
"Dad!" Zhao Jun became curious. While taking money out of his pocket, he asked Zhao Youcai, "What do you want? How about I do it for you?"
Zhao Youcai had previously asked Zhao Jun to help him adjust his work, but Zhao Jun didn't think about it at this time. He thought Zhao Youcai still had illusions about him, but Zhao Youcai had already seen through him.
Knowing that Zhao Jun could not do it for him, Zhao Youcai took Yan Shugang's idea.
But he and Yan Shugang were not familiar with each other, so he wanted to buy a cigarette and go out to make friends.
So when he heard that Zhao Jun was about to do something for him, Zhao Youcai glanced at him with narrowed eyes and said nothing.
Seeing that Zhao Youcai didn't say anything, Zhao Jun held five big unity cards in his hand and said with a smile: "Dad, just tell me what happened. If I can't handle it, I'll ask my brother-in-law to handle it for you."
"Why should I use you?" Zhao Youcai snatched the money from Zhao Jun's hand and said angrily: "I don't know him?"
After saying that, Zhao Youcai turned around and went to buy cigarettes.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Looking at Zhao Youcai's leaving figure, the corners of Zhao Jun's mouth rose slightly.
In the afternoon, the second floor of the department store became very lively due to the arrival of Zhao Jun and his party.
When Jin Xiaomei went to the counter and asked, she was immediately dumbfounded. A Triangle brand automatic rice cooker was priced at 115.
Jin Xiaomei was dumbfounded, not because it was expensive, but because it was cheap. Of course, cheap is a relative term. After all, Li Dayong's monthly salary was only over one hundred.
But because Wang, Zhang, and Jie's family gave the Zhao family thousands of things, Jin Xiaomei felt that the rice cooker she gave to the Zhao family was a bit shabby.
But there was nothing else to give away, so Jin Xiaomei gritted her teeth and bought three rice cookers in one go.
Two of them are for the Zhao family. There are more and more people eating at the Zhao family every day, and one rice cooker can't supply them at all.
The other one was prepared by Jin Xiaomei for Li Baoyu. As the new year approaches, the time when Li Baoyu separates and lives alone becomes closer and closer, and Jin Xiaomei becomes increasingly reluctant to part with it.
I don’t know what Jin Xiaomei told Wang Meilan. In the end, Wang Meilan accepted the Li family’s kindness and accepted the two rice cookers.
Then, the two of them rushed to meet Zhao Chun and others, who also wanted to buy wool.
This group of people rushed to put together the orders, buying five kilograms of this one and eight kilograms of that one. Among the women, Xu Chunyan bought the least. Her family’s money was invested in the chamber of commerce, and she only bought two kilograms of wool, which she planned to give to Lin Xiangshun.
Knit a big sweater.
The one who bought the most was of course Wang Meilan. She planned to knit a sweater each for Zhao Youcai, Zhao Chun, Zhao Hong, Zhao Na, Zhou Jianjun and the old lady. She bought ten kilograms of wool for these people in one go.
That yarn contains 25% wool and costs 60 yuan per pound. Ten pounds is 600 yuan.
In addition, Wang Meilan also brought Zhao Ling six pounds, enough for their family of three.
What people didn't expect was that Mrs. Xie Sun also bought ten kilograms of wool. She wanted to knit one piece each for herself, Xie Zhong, Jie Chen, Liu Lanying and Xie Yingming. Of course, if Mrs. Xie was to knit it alone,
, can make her vomit blood from exhaustion. But as for a large group of them, they knit when they have nothing to do at home.
The value of wool depends on the percentage of wool in it. The wool bought by Xie Sun is not that expensive, costing only 400 for ten kilograms.
But the two of them bought only twenty-six kilograms, plus Jin Xiaomei's eight kilograms and Li Tongyun's six kilograms. The wool seller was stunned. Normally, she might not be able to sell so much in a month.
After the women paid the money, Wang Meilan called out to Li Baoyu loudly.
Woolen yarn doesn't weigh much, but it takes up space. Two pounds of woolen yarn is a big pile.
Li Baoyu ran over, took off the sack bag from his body, took out a large sack, and put all the wool in it under the shocked eyes of the salesperson.
At this time, Zhao Youcai, who was buying cigarettes, also slipped back. Everyone had nothing to buy upstairs, so they walked downstairs.
"Sister Ling'er." When going downstairs, Li Tongyun said to Ma Ling: "You have to teach me to knit a sweater."
Ma Ling smiled and said, "Then you come to my house tomorrow."
"Daughter." Wang Meilan cut off the conversation and said to Ma Ling: "You'd better come to my aunt's house. We are all waiting for your teaching."
"This..." Ma Ling was a little hesitant. She was a thin-skinned girl and was afraid that running to her husband's house every day before she got married would make people in the village laugh.
Seeing Wang Meilan speak, Xu Chunyan hurriedly said: "Come on, Ling'er, my second sister-in-law will pick you up at home tomorrow!"
For this kind of thing, it's two different things if someone picks her up and if she comes by herself. After hearing what Xu Chunyan said, Ma Ling didn't say anything.
As soon as she got downstairs, Wang Meilan was like a mouse dropped into a rice vat. She bought ten pounds of peppers, cucumbers, and garlic sprouts shipped from the south.
She also bought two baskets of apples and oranges. Whenever anyone stopped her, Wang Meilan would say there were many people in her family.
At this time, Zhao Youcai had become just a spectator. He looked at Wang Meilan from the trunk and muttered that Wang Meilan was a prodigal.
I brought enough sacks from home, and the vegetables and fruits were covered in two layers, and they were covered with tarpaulins in the trunk.
Wang Meilan bought some more cakes and cans before giving up. A group of people got on the car and got home. It was almost six o'clock when they got home.
At this time, everyone from work was back. Zhao Ling cooked at home first, and then helped Lin Xue with the work when she got home.
After eating and drinking, the diners dispersed and met at the Chamber of Commerce tomorrow to learn skills and knit sweaters.
When the diners left, Wang Meilan asked each of them to take a newspaper back.
Seeing Li Baoyu and Li Tongyun leaving with the books they bought during the day, Li Ruhai called Wang Meilan and asked, "Mom, where is the book I bought?"
"Book?" Wang Meilan was startled and asked: "Ruhai, what book did you buy?"
"Just... that one." Li Ruhai was embarrassed to name the book, and only said: "Auntie, it's the book that's with those newspapers."
"Newspaper...ah..." Wang Meilan glanced back, and then said to Li Ruhai: "If you want to buy it, your mother won't let you?"
"Ah..." Li Ruhai was stunned, then Wang Meilan said: "If you don't buy it, I bought it myself."
Li Ruhai: "..."
"Okay, Ruhai, you go back first." Wang Meilan said with a smile: "You wait until I finish reading, and I'll take a look at what's in the book."
Li Ruhai left unhappy, but at this moment Zhao Youcai poked his head out of the west room and asked Wang Meilan: "How many words do you know? Do you read?"
"I know a lot." Wang Meilan opened the page she had read before, showed it to Zhao Youcai and sneered: "Look, this is where women are taught how to get a divorce!"
This is wrong. They teach how to manage a marriage, and then give some negative teaching materials. Wang Meilan studied those negative teaching materials.
"What do you mean?" Zhao Youcai asked Wang Meilan, "Don't you want to live with it?"
Wang Meilan did not answer when she heard this, but pointed to an article above and said: "Look what it says here, this woman and her man are just playing around to make money and don't want to recruit anyone. His wife got anxious and chased her."
He went to work."
"Why do you go to work?" Zhao Youcai asked innocently: "He lives in work?"
"Go to the workplace and accompany him to work." Wang Meilan's eyes flashed coldly, and she sneered: "Aren't you disobedient? His wife accompanies him to work and off work every day. How wonderful is this?"
Zhao Youcai is not stupid, and he didn't drink too much today. From Wang Meilan's words, Zhao Youcai heard a strong threat.
…
It's late at night and the night wind is still.
The mountain breeze in winter evening makes the branches all over the mountain rustle.
In a shack, Qin Dajiang was sleeping soundly on the kang. Mountain runners were used to going to bed early and getting up early.
Suddenly, a black shadow appeared outside the shack.
"Bang!" A huge force pushed the shack door open, and a brown bear jumped directly onto the kang.
"Huh?" Qin Dajiang was awakened and couldn't see anything. He only smelled a fishy wind blowing towards his face.
He has lived for most of his life and knows that such a thing is not a good thing, but the next second, Qin Dajiang was pinned down by a brown bear.
Qin Dajiang couldn't see clearly, so he only used his fists to try to cut the blind man's nose.
Qin Dajiang has been running in the mountains for half his life, so he is really experienced. He used this set of Wang Ba punches to hit the brown bear's nose to gain a chance to escape.
But the brown bear pawed and pulled, then lowered his head and bit, and there was a crunching sound, followed by a scream, and Qin Dajiang almost died from the pain.
There was another crunch, and the brown bear bit off Qin Dajiang's other arm.
The screams were endless. When Qin Dajiang was unconscious, he thought of his son Qin Qiang.
