Chapter 47 How dare you show me my stuff?

Song Wei nodded and agreed, then went shopping somewhere else and bought another piece of cloth. She didn't ask for a ticket so the price was a little higher than that of the supply and marketing cooperative, and the cloth was a little defective.

But even so, there were still many people asking about the price of the cloth, and when Song Wei came over, they were already the last two pieces.

The people who came out to sell cloth should be the family members of the textile factory workers. They brought three pieces of cloth in total.

Song Wei bought one of the pieces without bargaining and left. Seeing that one piece of cloth was missing, the others immediately scrambled for the remaining one, but they all bought it by the meter.

Afterwards, Song Wei bought a few more pairs of socks, including the ones that Heidan wore. Since she didn’t need anything else for the time being, she left.

When we arrived at the address the old lady mentioned, it was also a relatively hidden alley.

She is not afraid of being tricked or beaten up, because who can beat her?

I walked in with great confidence. Fortunately, the lady really wanted to make a deal.

"Finally I'm here. All the cornmeal is here. Look."

When the old lady saw her, she pulled her in and showed her the cornmeal in the bag.

Cornmeal is not as fine as flour, and cornmeal in this era is basically pressed with stone mills, so it is a bit coarser.

In a few years this cornmeal will be feed for pigs, but now, this cornmeal is a very good food compared to sweet potatoes.

"How much?"

The old lady held up two fingers and said, "This is very filling, and it's already ground into flour, so there won't be any missing. It should be at least 20 cents."

It weighs about 40 kilograms in total, which is not too little.

Not wanting to waste time, Song Wei nodded in agreement.

Song Wei brought a lot of things on this trip. She put the rice in the backpack, and also put cornmeal, cloth bought from the black market, and socks in it, and finally covered it with a piece of old cloth.

She found a place to wash her face and finally walked back with her things on her back.

At this time, there were already quite a few people on the horse-drawn carriages of the Ping An Brigade at the county gate, and everyone was carrying large and small bags of things they had just bought.

Some of them were curious and kept looking at what other people were buying.

"Heidan, what did Song Zhiqing buy?"

"Song Zhiqing is so nice to you that he even bought you shoes. These are new shoes."

Someone stared at the new shoes on Heidan's feet with a sour tone, and the one who loved to take advantage wanted to take off the shoes on his feet and take them home to wear for his own children.

Heidan held his feet and looked at the aunts and ladies warily.

"Let me see what Song Zhiqing bought."

As he said this, he was about to reach into the backpack next to Heidan.

Heidan protected her anxiously, his face turning red with anxiety: "Go away, no!"

"It's not yours, why are you so anxious to protect it? It really is a thing that has life but no one to take care of it!"

The aunt even wanted to push Heidan away violently.

"What are you doing?"

The old man driving the cart came over and scolded him: "Did you see Song Zhiqing's things? Why are you touching them?"

The auntie could scold Heidan without any scruples, but she didn't dare to do that to the old man driving the ox cart.

She said with an embarrassed look: "I'm just curious, I won't take anything even if I take a look."

"Since Auntie is so curious, let us see what you bought."

When Song Wei's voice came, Heidan turned his head and looked over in surprise.

The girl was carrying a basket on her back. The basket looked full, but it was covered with cloth so one couldn't see clearly what was inside.

But she looked so relaxed carrying it, it didn't look like a heavy object.

Song Wei touched Heidan's head and looked at the aunt with a smile.

"Please show us how much money you have on you."

The aunt immediately put her hands on her hips and started yelling arrogantly.

"How shameless! Why should I show it to you?"

The smile on Song Wei's face fell and he gave the aunt a sarcastic look.

"That's right, you are so shameless, why should I let you see my stuff?"

After saying that, he rolled his eyes rudely.

The aunt was so angry that her face turned red.

The old man herding cattle looked at Song Wei with a depressed look on his face. This educated youth Song had too many things, and he didn't know if this old friend could handle it.

But since he had accepted a steamed bun from Song Wei before, he felt embarrassed to say anything more.

When everyone was gathered, they were about to go back. Song Wei said considerately, "Uncle, there's not enough room here. I'll just carry the things in my backpack and walk with you guys."

Carrying more than 100 kilograms of things is nothing for her. It is inevitable that she will be spied on and discovered on the cattle cart, so it is safer to carry it on her back.

There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!

The old man probably didn't expect that she would take the initiative to make this request, and he rubbed his hands embarrassedly for a moment.

"You have a lot of stuff, why don't you put it up."

Song Wei shook her head: "It's okay, there are mostly clothes and beddings sent by my brother. It looks a lot but it's not heavy."

Seeing how easily she carried it, everyone believed it.

The old man didn't insist anymore.

Heidan also wanted to come down and follow her, but was stopped.

"Sit tight, you still have to watch over the things in the car."

Heidan immediately thought of the aunt who wanted to see what was in the backpack, and he didn't insist on going down and walking with her.

In fact, the speed of the ox cart was not as fast as Song Wei's walking speed. She followed slowly beside the ox cart, and the gossipy ladies on the ox cart couldn't help asking her.

"Song Zhiqing, didn't you say Heidan was helping you with work? Why did you have to dress him up and buy him shoes? You're losing too much."

Song smiled and said, "It's not abuse to ask him to help me with the work. Winter is coming soon. If he doesn't have a pair of shoes or clothes and gets sick at such a young age, I will have to spend money to take him to see a doctor. All the extra money will be spent."

The lady who asked the question smiled dryly: "Yes, yes."

But this is too wasteful.

"Song Zhiqing is much more kind than the Lin family."

The coachman interrupted and said that he just couldn't stand the people from the Lin family.

These women are really something. Poor Heidan finally finds someone who treats him well. Those who gossip about him are probably afraid that Heidan is having too good a life.

"Speaking of the Lin family, Song Zhiqing, was what you said the other day true or false?"

Although Song Wei explained later that day that she was just joking, everyone was very curious. Some elderly people who were about the same age as Mrs. Lin stood up and said that when she was young, Mrs. Lin was really close to other men.

"My mother-in-law said that Old Lady Lin married from the town. How could a girl from the town like Old Man Lin? I also heard that she got pregnant not long after she got married."

"I heard that Lin Dahai was born prematurely."

Song Wei's eyes widened a little. No way, she was just saying it casually. This old lady Lin really has something to say.

So he pricked up his ears and listened with great interest.

The aunts and ladies on the ox cart talked about the news they knew.

"Speaking of which, among the Lin family's sons, the one that Old Lady Lin likes the most is Lin Dahai."

"The other sons of the Lin family all look like Old Man Lin, but Lin Dahai doesn't look like Old Man Lin."

"Mrs. Lin also made Lin Lao San work like a slave to earn money and food, and finally gave the money to Lin Dahai to buy a job."
