"Mom, look, this is what I bought for you and your sister in the provincial capital." Xu Erlong took out the contents of the snakeskin pocket.
He bought this for the two of them when he was shopping in the provincial capital.
There are new clothes for Xiaoling and her mother that change from season to season, and there are single leather shoes that change from season to season for her mother and Xiaoling.
Wait until it rains and the weather gets cooler, then you can wear it.
In addition, there are also ice cream, Haiou shampoo, bee flower protectant, etc.
I guarantee that Xiaoling and her mother’s hair will be smooth and smooth after using it, and will not be as dry and split as before.
"You kid, why are you spending money indiscriminately again? The cream you bought last time hasn't been used up yet." Zhang Jinfang muttered.
But deep down in my heart, I was secretly happy.
Parents are happy when their children are capable and know how to be filial.
She told Xu Erlong: "In the future, don't buy us anything anymore, don't spend money randomly. These clothes are enough for my mother. You come and go in rain and wind, it's not easy to make some money, you have to save it.
Keep it to get a wife, you know?"
Xu Erlong felt warm in his heart.
In my last life, as a boy of seventeen or eighteen years old, I didn't know how to be considerate of my mother. I had some emotions and was shy to express them.
But later on, the son wanted to be raised but couldn't wait to be kissed.
In this next life, he will be even more patient and kind to his mother and sister, taking good care of them every step of the way, without leaving any regrets.
Miss Tooth was in the laundry sink, turned on the water faucet, and washed the clothes.
When boys wash clothes, their hair becomes rough.
Throw it into the water, put some soap on it, rub it three times, rub it twice, and if it doesn't come off, it's an old stain.
Anyway, it’s just a summer jacket, so it doesn’t take much trouble to get sweat stains through.
"Second brother, where are the clothes hangers?" Que Teeth washed his clothes and stood at the door and asked Xu Erlong.
Zhang Jinfang stood up: "The clothes hanger is in my room, I will bring it to you."
The two of them got up and went upstairs and took some clothes hangers from the room. Zhang Jinfang helped them dry the clothes.
The sunshine in September is just right, bright but not scorching, and it won't take long for it to dry out.
The missing tooth came down and started rummaging through his things.
During this trip to the provincial capital, he also bought a lot of things.
There are a lot of bits and pieces, all of them are some weird foreign brand goods.
He still has to take these back and show off to everyone.
"Second brother, I'm going back first." Qian Ya said.
"Okay, I won't keep you here anymore. You should also go back and visit your grandparents. You haven't seen anyone for several days, so don't let them worry." Xu Erlong warned.
Then, he pointed to another package of things: "This package of things is for Yu Ping, and these are for the two brothers and sisters Huang Xiaogang."
Since he and Qian Ya had bought things in the provincial capital, they naturally couldn't treat the other people badly.
It's more or less a matter of friendship.
"Yes. I obey." Qian Ya saluted playfully, took these things and went back.
The sound of singing softly came from the duty counter outside.
"The evening breeze gently blows across Penghu Bay
White waves chasing the beach
There is no coconut grove adorning the setting sun
Just a sea of blue
Sitting on the low wall in front of the door
Thinking about it over and over again
Also on the beach at dusk
There are two and a half pairs of footprints.”
This is the round-faced eldest lady who came over to take a shift while humming a song.
Seeing that Xu Erlong was back, she said to Xu Erlong: "Xu Erlong, are you back?"
"Yes." Xu Erlong smiled.
After living here for such a long time, everyone is an old acquaintance.
The round-faced elder sister smiled and said: "It's just the right time for you to come back. You asked us to inquire about a house for you a while ago, and now there happens to be a suitable one. Do you want to go and have a look."
"Okay." Xu Erlong agreed.
In order to make it easier for Xiaoling to go to school, he was eager to move to the city.
For a while, it was difficult to rent a house, let alone buy a house, so I had to temporarily rent it in a guest house as a temporary solution.
These days, there are no real estate agents, and there are not so many house inspectors to take you around to look at houses.
He could only rent it in a guest house temporarily, and asked the waiters and ladies in the guest house to use their connections to help find out if there was a suitable house during this period.
"Mom, let's go see the house." Xu Erlong turned to Zhang Jinfang and said.
"Then I'll go change some clothes." Zhang Jinfang said.
In her mind, going to see a house was as important as going to the city from the countryside.
When going to the city from the countryside, she must wear the cleanest and neatest clothes and take care of her hair before she is willing to go to the city.
Be poor, but don't be sloppy.
"Okay, just wear the new one I brought back today." Xu Erlong said.
"No, no, no," Zhang Jinfang was very embarrassed.
She was used to wearing shabby clothes, and now she was asked to change into new clothes, and she felt helpless and constrained.
The round-faced elder sister said with envy: "Your son is so filial. He always buys you new clothes every time he comes back."
Zhang Jinfang said modestly: "Your children are not bad either."
While talking, Zhang Jinfang went upstairs and changed into clean clothes.
The round-faced elder sister exchanged words with her colleagues, and she took Xu Erlong and others to see the house.
At this moment, it was time for school to end in the afternoon, and groups of children were walking back carrying schoolbags.
Or they were rolling hoops in their hands, or blowing paper pinwheels, or they were chatting in groups of twos and threes.
As expected, childhood is a carefree time.
The house that the round-faced elder sister wanted to take them to see was said to be next to the cinema and in a prosperous area, which met Xu Erlong's requirements.
Xu Erlong walked halfway when he realized that the route was wrong.
He asked the original-faced eldest sister: "Didn't you say that the house is near the cinema? How to get here?"
"The house I'm showing you is near the movie theater on River Street." The round-faced lady replied plausibly.
Xu Erlong couldn't laugh or cry.
Their cinemas here are divided into city cinemas and river street cinemas.
At that time, he asked the ladies at the guest house to find a house near the cinema in the city.
Unexpectedly, the round-faced elder sister listened only halfway and left. She only remembered that it was the house of a cinema, but did not distinguish between a city cinema and a river street cinema.
But now that you’re here, let’s go take a look.
The three of them walked to the house that was to be resold.
The wooden walls unique to the eastern Sichuan area are very deep and have poor lighting. Except for a window of less than half a square meter in the front, there is no lighting and ventilation in the back.
The lighting inside is only transmitted through the bright tiles on the roof.
It was getting late now, and the room seemed even colder.
"I'm in a hurry to sell this house, and it only costs 800 yuan," said the round-faced eldest sister.
Xu Erlong shook his head.
Whether it's money or not is not the most important thing, he doesn't like this house at all.
Not to mention the poor lighting and layout, this location will not even have a chance to be demolished in the future.
There was no way he could spend hundreds of dollars to buy such a shabby house.
"It's okay, eldest sister, we are not in a hurry. We will pay attention slowly. Anyway, we are temporarily staying in the guest house and have a place to live." Xu Erlong said.
