"Why didn't you call for help when you woke up? If you fall off the kang, you'll be the one in pain!" Lin Manman scolded.
"I'm about to pee in my pants, hurry up and pick me up!" Mao Chenxiang said in a crying voice.
If he hadn't had to pee urgently, he wouldn't have woken up at all.
His first reaction when he woke up was to get out of bed and pee.
He never remembered that this was not his bed, but a kang!
Lin Manman quickly carried him to the ground. He didn't even have time to put on his shoes and ran out barefoot to pee.
After he had taken care of his physiological needs, he came back sleepily to put on his shoes.
"Are you still sleeping? If not, go to the yard and play with Sister Xing'er!" Lin Manman said.
She originally wanted Mao Chenxiang to call her sister, but when she thought about her seniority, she decided to give up.
Mao Chenxiang shook his head, indicating that he didn't want to sleep anymore.
Before leaving the house, Lin Manman did not forget to put a bench next to the end of the kang.
The next time he wakes up on his own, he can step on the bench to get off the kang.
Seeing Mao Chenxiang playing with Xing'er in the yard, Lin Manman gave them each two pieces of fruit candy, and then went into the room to continue what she had been doing.
Zhou Yun stayed until the evening before leaving.
She agreed with the Gu family's father and son's decision to find a job, and said that if they needed money, they could come to her.
At this time, a job is considered an "iron rice bowl" or even a "golden rice bowl" in people's minds!
One carrot, one hole.
If you don't spend some money to run it, you may not be able to make a living!
On the third day, Gu Zhuoyuan and Lin Manman got up early.
Gu Zhuoyuan had already asked for leave from the team leader of the second production team yesterday, and was planning to go to the city with Lin Manman today.
In the past two days, with the lessons learned from previous experiences, and after going hungry for a few meals, Gu Zhuoming, Gu Zhuohui, and Qian Duoduo have temporarily become more obedient.
But no one can guarantee how long this situation can last.
Li Zhaodi and her two children have not returned yet. Because the distance is too far, no news has been sent back for the time being.
Although the Gu family and the Li family are relatives, they don't interact much.
Even Li Zhaodi herself might not go back to her parents' home not only on weekdays but also on holidays.
So we will have to wait for verbal news or for the three of them to come back to find out what the rules are.
Lin Manman and Gu Zhuoyuan did not plan to bring Mao Chenxiang with them today, but instead went to the city to investigate the situation on their own.
If they were lucky enough to find out about the situation of Mao's family, they would verify it before deciding whether to send Mao Chenxiang back?
If they can't find out, they won't be in a hurry.
After all, they had other things to do in the city today, so they had to get some money first.
While the two were still having breakfast, Lin Jiajun brought the bicycle over.
They did not plan to go to the commune to take the bus, not to save a few cents, but for the sake of their health.
With this bumpy road and the stop-and-go speed, they will lose if they don’t get carsick!
"Dad, wait a moment. I'll get you two buns. You can have them for breakfast."
When Lin Manman saw Lin Jiajun was about to leave, she quickly called him and gave them two big buns while the first and second wives were still asleep.
Lin Jiajun took the buns and left immediately. He had to go back to notify the people in the first production team to go to work.
Before leaving, the two of them carried Mao Chenxiang to the old couple's room and left them a few buns for breakfast.
Lin Manman also left some snacks for Mao Chenxiang to eat by himself during the day.
After the two men finished all these, they rode their bikes towards the city.
On the way.
"Brother Yuan, you said that this 28-inch bicycle is so high that I can't ride it. Does this mean that if I want to go to the city in the future, I have to wait until you are free?" Lin Manman asked.
She still wanted to be able to go to the city whenever she wanted.
Even if you just go for a walk in the city, it’s better than staying at home all the time!
"Let's wait until the space is upgraded! I have prepared bicycles, including a women's bicycle.
It's just that the space hasn't been upgraded yet, so we can't get the bicycle yet." Gu Zhuoyuan explained.
There are women's bicycles at this time, but they are very rare. Don't expect to find them in small towns like Anshi!
"That's good! But I don't know when I can upgrade? Xiaochen's problem hasn't been resolved yet, and the space will definitely not continue to assign us tasks!" She said dejectedly.
In this regard, space is still very demanding.
The previous task was not completely completed, and the reward was given to them, but the next task would not be assigned.
Only when Xiaochen’s problem is resolved can they wait for the next mission to begin.
Alas~
It's so worrying!
"Don't worry! I guess the first task shouldn't be too demanding. Maybe we can find clues today?" Gu Zhuoyuan comforted.
Now they can only think so.
After riding for about twenty minutes, the two men saw the sign for Anshi.
But this city is indeed different, and this house is different from the one in the production team.
Basically, there are brick and tile houses, and occasionally there are two buildings. This is An City.
As for the scenery...
Apart from the standard black, white and gray, there is almost no scenery!
This is so different from the city Lin Manman imagined!
She had read those novels before, and although it was mentioned in the books, in the minds of people of that era, the city was much better than the countryside!
"Brother Yuan, where should we go first? How can we find out about Xiaochen's family?" she asked.
Everything was originally beautiful in my imagination, but now that I am in the city, I am completely in the dark.
There were hardly any people on the streets; the total number of people could be counted on two hands.
How does this look like the city?
There was no shouting in the production team yet, but many people saw it!
So, imagination is always beautiful, but reality is very cruel.
Although they got up early, they arrived late.
It was around half past six when they left the house.
By the time we arrived at the county, it was almost seven o'clock, which was already past the time for workers to go to work and students to go to school.
There were basically no people walking around on the streets except those going to the supply and marketing cooperatives and state-owned restaurants to buy things.
"Let's go to the supply and marketing cooperative first. Didn't Mom give you money and tickets? Go in and see if there's anything you want."
After we finish buying things, we will go to the black market and try to get some supplies.
If we can buy a watch on the black market, let's buy one and use it first!"
Gu Zhuoyuan arranged it this way.
When I was preparing the supplies, I actually prepared a lot of electronic products.
He bought no less than twenty electronic products such as mobile phones, iPads, and game consoles.
Not to mention timekeeping tools like watches.
