"Dad, do you want to come with us?" It's such a nice day, it would be great to take dad out to the market with him.
Ling Guoqiang sat on the big chair at the door and waved happily: "I'm not going, you go ahead! Go early and come back early."
Ling Xiaowei climbed onto the tricycle and sat on a torn quilt.
Ling Guoqiang looked at Ling Xiaowei's frail appearance and hurriedly said to Zhang Cuifen: "Cuifen, take out the military coat in the room and cover the two children."
It's so cold today. A military coat is a great tool for keeping warm. Basically every household has one of these clothes.
Zhang Cuifen took clothes and covered the two of them. She took a red scarf and wrapped her head.
"We're leaving! Do you want to bring something to you?" Zhang Cuifen asked.
"Bring me some paint powder." To make clothes for Xiaowei, you have to make a pattern. Without paint powder, it's difficult to draw lines.
"Okay!" This was a bargain, so Zhang Cuifen readily agreed.
Finally we set out on the street, and I started to feel excited for no reason. The tricycle quickly went on the road, making a squeaking sound. It sounded like the car was about to fall apart at any time, but the car was running very fast.
After crossing the bridge, we entered the field road. There was still white snow piled up on both sides of the road. The road was very muddy because of the melted snow, and there were traces of wheels all over it.
Zhang Cuifen hunched over and pedaled the tricycle hard on the muddy path.
Along the way, many people passed by on bicycles, all with their families. Their children were sitting on the crossbar in front of them, and their wives were sitting behind them, holding one in their arms. Everyone's face was beaming with joy.
After crossing another bridge, we finally reached the asphalt road! This road was built by the state. People usually call it Provincial Road 124. There are poplar trees planted on both sides of the road. In winter, the trees are all bare. A glance along the provincial road
Can't see the end.
After the road was gone, Zhang Cuifen straightened her back and was about to stand up Ming Ming happily. Ling Xiaowei grabbed Ming Ming and held her in one hand, saying: "Ming Ming, be good! Sit tight and don't move around in the car."
There were more people on the road, but they were all on bicycles. Occasionally, there was a man on a motorcycle who rode away from the crowd of bicycles. The car drove away and disappeared, but the roar was still there.
These days, those who can ride a motorcycle are rich.
Ling Xiaowei watched the trees whizzing past one after another. The straight tree trunks on both sides of the road were like soldiers, saluting her one after another.
Ling Xiaowei was sitting behind the car with her back to Zhang Cuifen. She could see everything behind her, including bicycles chasing after her one after another, and all kinds of people.
Of course, in addition to people riding bicycles, there are people pulling carts and people on foot on this road, all of whom are going to the market with their families.
There were many classmates she knew among them! People from all over the country came to this gathering, so the chance of meeting classmates from other villages was very high.
I hope I don’t meet Wang Jiahao today.
"Ling Xiaowei! Are you out to go to the market too?" Wang Haohao was sitting on the back seat of her mother's bicycle and greeted Ling Xiaowei happily when she saw her.
What a coincidence! Wang Haohao also came to the market.
As soon as he said hello, Wang Haohao walked to the front. Two-wheelers are always faster than three-wheelers.
Two-wheeled bicycles passed by one after another, and they also met the aunt and uncle. Zhang Cuifen greeted them politely. The uncle nodded politely, but the car did not slow down at all, dragging Ling.
Jiabao thorn slipped away and ran ahead.
The aunt pretended not to hear, raised her head and carried Ling Chunxia on her back, and ran forward quickly.
