Yaya was very excited during lunch. The weather forecast said that it was likely to snow in the next two days.
When the little girl said it, she forgot that Qin Xiaobao usually travels all over the country and often goes to the north. He no longer feels strange about seeing snow.
But he was very cooperative and enjoyed himself along with the others.
They were all young people of eighteen or nineteen years old, half-grown children, some even held a bowl and went outside to look at the sky.
"If it snows, do we have to buy new year's goods in advance?" Qin Xiaobao suddenly thought: "Is it heavy snow?"
Yaya took out her mobile phone and checked it, then nodded: "It shouldn't be too small."
"Then we'll set off after dinner, leaving one person on duty, and the others will go to the city together. I'll help you buy new clothes for the New Year, as well as a few days' worth of food, firecrackers, couplets, etc."
"You all go along and just leave me at home!" Yaya decided directly.
My friends are very excited and are about to enter the city!
"As usual, prepare a list first."
Qin Xiaobao was worried that if the snow fell heavily, it would be troublesome and dangerous to travel, so it was better to stock up on supplies so that there would be no panic for a few people on the farm.
"By the way, is that enough dog food?"
"That's enough!" Someone on the side replied: "As for the water and electricity, a special person came to check it a few days ago, and there will be no problem."
"That's good!"
Before going out, everyone ate much faster. Half an hour later, an SUV and a pickup truck drove out of the farm gate.
Qiongting was sitting in the passenger seat wearing a mask. The reason why she was abandoned was simple. Half of her cheeks and neck were covered with red marks.
In fact, this problem is not big and can be completely solved through laser and skin transplantation.
I don’t know why she was abandoned in the first place. Maybe it was because her family was poor, or maybe it was just because she was a girl.
This question never has an answer.
Qin Xiaobao mentioned to Yaya last year that since Qiongting's problem is easy to solve, why don't he simply pay for it and do whatever she wants? Girls, how can anyone not love beauty?
Yaya's answer surprised and pleased him.
Qiongting planned to have surgery and had even inquired about which hospital was more reliable.
But, she has to use her own strength.
Because there are many children in the hospital, she doesn't want to be an exception and a burden to Qin Xiaobao and Yaya.
Not everyone who comes to the farm from the yard works seriously. Something happened before, so Yaya stopped recruiting workers from the yard for the time being.
If one person sets a precedent, what will other children think?
Hey, you have done Qiongting's surgery, why don't you do mine too?
This is a bit of a moral kidnapping.
Although Qiongting only graduated from junior high school, she still understands the truth.
When she first came to the farm, her salary was 3,500 yuan, but it included food and accommodation, and she had no place to spend money. Sometimes she couldn't spend even 50 yuan a month, but she could save all of it.
After becoming the deputy director of the factory, her salary was increased a bit and she also got bonuses. The little girl said that she was not in a hurry now and would find a better hospital when the time came.
Qin Xiaobao has already made a plan. If Yaya and he go to the Magic City in the future, Qiongting can take over the farm. Everyone can rest assured.
"Excuse me, Miss Zhang, where should we go first?"
"Let's divide the troops into two groups," Qiong Ting said directly: "It's already late, and there are a lot of things to buy. It will be very late to go back, and brother Xiaobao, look, the weather has changed."
Qin Xiaobao lowered his head. It was true that the sun was shining brightly in the morning, but now it is cloudy. The weather forecast is quite accurate. The snow may fall at any time.
"In this way, I will be responsible for buying groceries and let Ding Qiang and Ma Dekun follow. You are more familiar with other people's sizes. Go buy shoes and daily necessities first."
"Brother Xiaobao, can you buy groceries?" Qiong Ting expressed doubts.
"Of course I can, don't worry, keep it with me. Give me the QR code and I'll transfer the money to you."
"No, boss Yaya just transferred me two thousand, that's enough."
"Okay, hurry up. We'll meet here later and call you."
"OK!"
Watching the pickup truck leave, Qin Xiaobao remembered: "By the way, when we go shopping, shouldn't we drive that car?"
Ding Qiang laughed from behind: "Brother Bao, we don't dare to drive your car. It's so expensive, just in case it happens."
Qin Xiaobao didn't take it seriously: "Actually, you misunderstood. The more expensive the car, the safer it is, because people will avoid you and don't believe you."
After saying that, he started up again and stopped at the red light. The Buick following him kept a distance of at least two meters, which made the two young men gain knowledge.
Just after he stopped at Wal-Mart, Ding Qiang suddenly said: "We usually go to the market to buy groceries, it's cheaper there."
"Actually, they're all the same," Qin Xiaobao put on a mask: "Aren't we in a hurry? The vegetable market is not as convenient as a large supermarket. Once we get there, each person will push a cart. Let's buy everything according to the list. Don't miss anything."
But after going upstairs, he regretted taking the initiative.
As soon as I entered the door, I saw long queues lined up at several payment lanes, blessing characters and firecrackers hung from the ceiling, and the familiar song "Gong Xi Fa Cai" played from the speakers...
Everything reminds people that the Chinese New Year is almost here.
After putting in coins, picking up the cart, and entering the supermarket, the heat wave hit. It was actually no different from a traditional vegetable market. There were still too many people.
Qin Xiaobao glanced at the lucky bags and milk at the door: "What should I buy first?"
Ding Qiang looked at his phone: "Sister Yaya said that we have the seasonings at home, but we need to buy two bottles of vinegar, and the dumplings will eat a lot."
Walking to the seasoning section, Qin Xiaobao touched his chin. The entire shelf in front of him was full of vinegar. Just when he was hesitating to buy white vinegar, black vinegar or Italian vinegar, Ding Qiang took two bottles with dumpling vinegar written on them and put them in the car.
question.
"Three pounds of chicken wings...Xiao Ma, how many chicken wings can you eat in one meal?"
"Ten? Three kilograms is not enough. Come with eight kilograms. Anyway, it can be frozen."
"Ding Qiang, do you like seafood?"
“I like it, but it’s expensive and I can only eat it once a month.”
"Okay, I bought it."
Qin Xiaobao's generosity surprised the two young men. The salesperson thought he was purchasing for the hotel and took the initiative to lower the price.
The list is only halfway through, and three cars are already full.
I have no choice but to pay the bill first.
Qiongting finished her work and came over to help, loading all the goods into the car. It was getting dark.
Qin Xiaobao leaned against the car door and called Yaya. The farm was fine, so he decided to go back after dinner in the city or wait until midnight.
A bowl of hot shaved noodles, topped with chili, coriander, and a big steak is very satisfying.
Half an hour away from the farm, snowflakes started to fall in the sky. Several people stopped their cars and watched for a while on the side of the road.
Qiongting is already looking forward to getting up and having a snowball fight tomorrow morning.
