Chapter 145 Big Purchase
Especially Xu Xiaobao, the things in his hands were almost covering his face. Worried that he would lose sight of the road and fall, Li Yiyi quickly ran over to help him.
"Why did you bring so many things? Did your mother move all your things to me?" Li Yiyi asked in surprise after taking the things Xu Xiaobao was holding.
Xu Dabao immediately smiled and replied, "Don't worry, pretty aunt, I still have a lot at home. My mother said that you just moved in, pretty aunt, and there is nothing at home. These things are all useful. Also, my mother asked me to ask you, tomorrow is the day when the team will send a car to the town, she asked if you want to go shopping together?"
Li Yiyi laughed in her heart. What a coincidence! Although the house was clean and tidy, Jiang Hong, a grown man, really forgot to prepare many daily necessities.
"Okay, go back and tell your mom that I'm going with her, and ask her to come and call me when she goes tomorrow." Li Yiyi said as she took the thing he was holding.
Xu Dabao took a closer look at the beautiful aunt. He had lived here for so long. Although there were women in this place, none of them looked as pretty as the beautiful aunt.
"Okay, then, pretty aunt, we'll go back first." Xu Dabao retracted his gaze that wanted to look at the pretty aunt for a moment longer and quickly said.
Li Yiyi quickly called them, "Wait a moment."
After saying that, she immediately turned around and ran into the house, took out another handful of candy and stuffed it into the two brothers.
"Candy. It's sweet." When Xu Xiaobao saw the candy wrapped in shiny paper, his eyes lit up and he shouted to his brother excitedly.
Xu Dabao nodded vigorously. He had seen such beautiful candies in the hands of that stingy woman Yang Tao. However, that stingy woman only gave them to the children in the teacher's family and never to him. Humph, now he has one too.
"What beautiful candies! Even more beautiful than the ones Yang Tao gave to our commander's grandson last time." He said with a greedy look on his face.
Upon hearing this, Li Yiyi smiled and rubbed the brothers' heads. "Okay, it's getting late. I won't keep you two here any longer. Go back quickly, or your mother will get worried."
The two brothers held the five or six candies in their hands and said goodbye to her in unison, "Goodbye, pretty auntie."
After seeing the two brothers off, Li Yiyi went to see the things that sister-in-law Jia Chunhua had her two sons bring.
There was a bag of noodles, a piece of bacon, and about two pounds of fresh vegetables, which looked like they had just been picked from the ground.
"Wife, what are you looking at?" Jiang Hong saw that there was no movement in the kitchen, so he walked in and saw his wife squatting on the ground, looking at something.
When Li Yiyi heard his voice, she immediately turned around and squatted down with him, pointing at the pile of things and said to him, "Look, this is what Sister Chunhua sent us. There are so many. She really has nothing to complain about."
In this era, every family is not rich, and so many things are probably the bottom of people's drawers.
Jiang Hong looked at the things on the ground, took her into his arms and said softly, "It's okay, Lao Xu is a good person, and Sister Chunhua is not a gossiper. If you want to make friends, she is a good choice. As for these things, since they have been sent to us, we will accept them and return them later."
Li Yiyi nodded and told him about what Jia Chunhua would bring to the town tomorrow.
"Tomorrow? What a coincidence! Tomorrow I plan to take half a day to drive you and the kids to town to stroll around and do some shopping." He said with a smile.
When Li Yiyi heard this, she immediately sat up from his arms and said, "Why didn't you tell me earlier? I promised Sister Chunhua that I would go with her tomorrow."
Jiang Hong held her in his arms again. She didn't lean on him, and he always felt like something was missing. Only with her leaning on him did he feel at ease.
"It's okay. Let Sister Chunhua take my car to town, so you don't have to squeeze into one car." He said after lowering his head and kissing her forehead.
The next day, Li Yiyi finally realized how crowded it was.
After breakfast, Jiang Hong washed the dishes and went into the living room and said to her, "Wife, you and the children can take your time to clean up. I'm going to go to the office first to take care of some things. When you're done, wait for me at the entrance of the army. We'll gather there."
Li Yiyi was feeding her youngest son. "Okay, I'll remember that. Go quickly."
Finally, the youngest son was fed. Just as the mother and the two of them were ready, Jia Chunhua's voice rang out from outside, "Sister-in-law Jiang, are you ready?"
Li Yiyi heard the shouting outside and immediately responded, "Sister-in-law, right? I'm ready and will be out soon."
Today, both mother and daughter had their hair in braids and wore similar clothes, making them look like sisters.
When the door was opened and the mother and her two children came out, Jia Chunhua, who was waiting outside, saw the mother and daughter dressed like this and was very envious. "Oh, it's good to have daughters. The two of you are dressed up beautifully. When you walk outside, everyone thinks you are sisters."
Li Yiyi was amused by her words, and then she realized that there was no child with her, "Sister-in-law, where are Dabao and Xiaobao? Aren't they going together?"
"No, why would those two little brats go? They're so naughty. If I take them with me, I won't have to stroll around this street." She said with a look of disgust.
Then Jia Chunhua suddenly said anxiously, "Oh, it's getting late. If we go any later, there won't even be room to stand. Let's go, Sister-in-law Jiang."
Li Yiyi originally wanted to tell her not to worry, Jiang Hong would drive them to town, but before she could open her mouth, Jia Chunhua had already helped her hold Yueyue's hand and ran away quickly.
Li Yiyi smiled and shook her head when she saw this. She was about to bend down to hug Xiaobao, but the little guy suddenly stood back and shook his head at her. "Daddy said that I can't let mommy hold me. I have to walk by myself. Xiaobao can walk."
Li Yiyi smiled and took out a finger and said to him, "Then can you hold your mother's finger and walk?"
"Okay." The little guy responded in a soft voice.
Because Xiaobao had to walk by himself, when the mother and son arrived, there were many military wives standing at the entrance of the army who were going to the town to do shopping.
Jia Chunhua, who was standing in the distance, saw the mother and son finally coming over, and quickly waved towards them, shouting, "Sister Jiang, we are here."
When she shouted, many of the military wives who were queuing turned their heads and looked in her direction.
Among them was Yang Tao. Yang Tao, who was squeezed in the crowd, now had a pale face. Even when people around her talked to her, the smile on her face didn't seem natural.
