When she arrived at the county town, Ming Leyao had changed her appearance. This time she did not go to the textile factory, but to the staff family compound of the match factory. This time she met an old lady. After seeing the things in her backpack, she was still as enthusiastic as ever and called her friends to buy everything for her.
She earned about 80 yuan, plus a dozen industrial coupons.
I came to the supply and marketing cooperative carrying an empty basket, which contained enamel basins, enamel pots, thermoses, dishes and chopsticks, kerosene lamps, candles, vanishing cream, towels, toothbrushes, toothpaste, jars and a can of malted milk that didn't require a ticket.
She bought everything, which scared the salesperson at the supply and marketing cooperative. He glared at her, fearing that she would run away without paying. Finally, when he saw her paying the bill, he gave her a big smile.
On the way back, she put some coarse grains, oil, salt, sauce, vinegar, and a small piece of pork into the backpack.
The advantage of her living in such a remote place was reflected at this time. She just entered the village and turned a corner to get there. She didn't have to pass through the crowd, and naturally no one would notice what she bought.
After putting the things into the house and checking on the dog, Ming Leyao came to Pang Jianyuan's house with malted milk and a leave note.
"Uncle, I'm back."
"So fast?"
"Uncle, this is the sick leave note. The hospital said I can rest for five days. Can I wait five days before going back to work?"
"Okay, we'll make the arrangements based on what the hospital says."
"And this malted milk, which I bought with my leave note, is a gift for my uncle."
"No, no, this malted milk is expensive. This can costs two dollars. You don't have much money to begin with, why are you wasting money?"
"Uncle is good to me, so I have to be grateful, right? Just think of this as your niece's filial piety to you. Please accept it. I will trouble you when I have something to do in the future. Otherwise, I will be embarrassed."
Ming Leyao's words touched Pang Jianyuan's soft spot. He and Ming family's third son, Minghua, were good brothers who grew up together. When Minghua got into trouble, he hid at home and cried bitterly. Now that his good brother's child was in trouble, he helped out of his brother's sake. Now the child knew how to be grateful, wasn't it heartening?
"Good boy, good boy, uncle has accepted it. If you have any problems in the future, please don't be polite and just come over."
"Okay, uncle."
Pang Jianyuan gave a few more instructions, focusing on the matters at the Ming family's old house.
"Uncle, don't worry. If my grandma comes, I won't go back. It means that Hongdou's drama of catching an adulterer has ruined our good relationship. My grandma kicked me out at this critical moment. I have completely given up and will not be as stubborn as before."
"I'm glad you understand."
"Oh, uncle, there's one more thing. I want to build a few cabinets, cupboards, tables, chairs, etc. Does our team have anything suitable?"
"Yes, yes, yes. He lives in your uncle Wang's house in Dongcun. He used to be a craftsman and now takes on odd jobs. He should still have a lot of his old work at home. See how long it will take for him to ask his grandson to deliver it to your home."
"good."
Ming Leyao rushed to Dongcun and asked a few people before she found the door of Uncle Wang's house.
"Uncle Wang? Is Uncle Wang home?"
"Who is it?"
"Uncle Wang, I'm from Shangwang Village. My family just built a new house and I want to buy some furniture."
"Come in."
After Ming Leyao entered the door, she saw Uncle Wang sitting in the yard, planing wood with his back straight and a serious expression. Next to him was a tall and thin young man. He must be the grandson of Uncle Wang that the team leader mentioned, right?
"Aqiang, take this female comrade to the warehouse for a look."
"Okay, Grandpa."
Ah Qiang walked up to Ming Leyao, without even looking up, and said, "Follow me."
Then turn around and leave.
Ming Leyao followed behind him, watching him open the door of the warehouse, and then said in a very cold tone, "Pick it yourself."
Everywhere you look, there are all kinds of furniture. The more complicated ones have carvings, while the simpler ones are plain boards made of pure wood in its original color. Basically, all of them are what Ming Leyao needs, except for a desk.
"Can I get a desk?"
A Qiang, who had his head lowered, heard the word "desk" and subconsciously raised his head to look at Ming Le Yao. When he met her clear and bright eyes and slightly fair face, the tips of his ears turned red.
Ming Leyao understood that the aloofness was just a protective color and this guy was quite innocent.
"You can do it... it'll have to wait."
"Okay, I'll take all of these, plus a desk."
"Give me thirty-five dollars."
"Give."
He took out a few rolls of Great Unity from his pocket, counted out thirty-five and handed them to Aqiang, told him his home address, and then left.
The next morning, A Qiang pushed her furniture over with a cart and made four trips in a row.
Help her move it into the house and place it in the place she designated.
Seeing that he was tired and sweating, Ming Leyao pulled up a basket from the well, poured out a bowl of icy sugar water and handed it to him.
"Chill out, chill out. This is the boiled water I made early this morning. I added sugar to it. It tastes really good."
"No... no need... this... sugar water is too... too expensive."
"Hey, drink it if you're given it to me."
Since she gave it, she must have been sincere. She couldn't stand this kind of pushing and shoving game.
"Thanks."
When Fu Wencheng came to Ming Leyao's courtyard with a basket in his hand, he saw this scene.
A blushing boy looked awkwardly at the girl who was laughing happily.
Dazzling...
There's an inexplicable feeling of wanting to cause trouble.
Fu Wencheng thought so and of course did so.
