An earthquake caused Jiang Shanshan's originally well-off family of three to transmigrate to the impoverished 1970s.
On the left was their son crying for food in her arms, and on the righ...
"Thank you, postman. Sorry for bothering you." Jiang Shanshan took it and thanked the postman politely.
The postman was also a kind-hearted person. "You're welcome. This is what we should do. Serving people is our duty."
Jiang Shanshan followed with a smile. Seeing that the man was sweating profusely after delivering the letter to him, Jiang Shanshan politely suggested, "Brother Postman, do you want to come in and have a drink of water?"
"No, thank you. I still have a lot of letters to deliver. I won't drink any water. I'll go first." After saying that, the postman ran out, riding his big 28-bar bicycle, ringing his bell all the way out of Niujia Village.
As soon as the postman left, the four children immediately gathered around the envelope in Jiang Shanshan's hand with curiosity.
"Aunt San, what is this? Can we take a look at it too?" Niu Runxing blinked his curious eyes and stared at the bulging envelope in her hand.
Jiang Shanshan originally wanted to just throw it into the mall and pretend she didn't see it. After all, she thought being rejected was a bit embarrassing.
But now, seeing the four little guys surrounding the envelope in her hand with curiosity, she had to suppress her embarrassment and slowly tore open the envelope.
When he tore open the envelope, the money inside was the first thing that caught Jiang Shanshan's eye.
She was stunned when she saw the money inside and rubbed her eyes in disbelief.
Wasn’t her manuscript rejected? How come there is still money in it?
She quickly took out the letter and read the contents of the letter as quickly as she could.
After reading the contents of the letter, she smiled happily.
Fortunately, she was not rejected. Her manuscript was requisitioned by the newspaper. The money in it was her royalties for this submission, 1,500 yuan. She wrote a total of 20,000 words, and the money in it was 100 yuan.
"Aunt San, what's wrong?" The four little guys looked at their Aunt San with a little fear.
Aunt San's face looked a little scary just now, but she suddenly started smiling.
Jiang Shanshan came back to her senses and looked at the nervous faces of the four little guys. She quickly cleared her throat and explained to them with a forced smile, "Auntie San is fine. She's just happy. She made money and is happy today. Tell us what snacks we want and we'll satisfy you all at once."
"Any snacks are fine?" Niu Runxing asked with some anticipation.
Jiang Shanshan nodded, "Anything is fine."
Niu Runxing's face lit up with joy, and he immediately made a suggestion, "Can we eat barbecue? The barbecue we had last time was so delicious, and I've been thinking about it. But Aunt San, you said that we can't eat this often, and I can't think of it anymore."
"Barbecue?" When Liu Jinbao heard these two words, he looked at everyone and murmured these two words.
Jiang Shanshan smiled and touched the top of his head. "Barbecue means grilling food and eating it. Jinbao, do you want to try it?"
Liu Jinbao nodded vigorously immediately, "I do."
The little guy's eyes were as bright as the moon when he smiled.
Ever since the three of them came to live at his grandmother's house, he felt very happy every day. His brothers and sisters at his grandmother's house would not bully him, and would share any good food with him.
Unlike his brothers, sisters and brothers on grandma's side, who would snatch food from his hands and would be reluctant to give him any delicious food.
He really wishes he could live in his grandmother's house forever.
