"Chen Lemin and Zhang Aiying got married?"
He Wan looked at Zhang Aiying and Chen Lemin sitting together and asked Xue Zhenzhen in a low voice.
"We got married, about half a month ago. On the wedding day, the two families almost got into a fight."
"A fight? What happened?"
"Chen Lemin disagreed and refused to go pick up the bride. Zhang Aiying's two brothers disagreed and went directly to the brigade leader's house to make a scene."
"Oh dear, the brigade leader has had a lot of trouble because of this marriage alliance with the Zhang family, and he's become the laughingstock of the village."
He Wan nodded and said nothing more.
The two of them together are just right.
After Zhang Yao finished her apology, He Wan also went on stage to express her feelings and talked a lot about her grievances.
Zhang Yao's eyes welled up with tears, her features became clear and pitiful, so he didn't continue and let her go.
On the way back, Li Weidong stopped her: "Xiao He, the educated youth."
Call me "sister".
"Okay, okay, Sister He." After saying that, she quickly pulled her to a less crowded area: "Is there anything else good?"
"No, how could I carry so much stuff by myself?"
"No way, you can fool others, but you can't fool me. You must have something good. My mother is planning to find me a husband, so I need to get some nice things to dress myself up. You have no idea how much money I've made lately, do you?"
"Then let me ask you, how much money have you made during this period?"
Li Weidong pointed to a number.
He Wan guessed, "Five yuan?"
"wrong?"
"Fifty?"
Li Weidong laughed heartily.
"Tsk, what despicable thing did you do?"
"You can't think of me like that. I earned it through my own hard work. I helped the village sell the peaches. I also ordered several hundred peach saplings, which will be picked up next spring."
"Several hundred? Our village doesn't have that many."
“As for the seedlings, Zhang Cuicao often takes care of the peach and pear orchards in the village. This spring, she moved some of the seedlings under the tree roots. Next year will be enough, and the two years combined will be enough. Even if it's not enough, we can buy them from other villages.”
"You're really bold, but this business is good."
"Hehe, right? I knew I, Li Weidong, couldn't possibly be not smart."
"The team gave you so much money."
"That's right, you didn't see the pained look on Uncle Li's face back then, it was quite a sight. Of course, he didn't mention much, just a dozen or so yuan, the rest I saved up myself."
Seeing his reaction, He Wan said, "I have some Dacron fabric and a few watches over there."
"A watch? I...I don't have that much money. How about getting a few feet of fabric so my mother can make a beautiful dress?"
"Alright."
When Li Weidong left the educated youth settlement, he was acting mysteriously, and he didn't dare tell his mother immediately when he got home.
He Wan instructed him to take it out in five days.
After Qin Xuxiang finished eating, he went to He Wan's place and bought Xie Meihui a pair of cotton shoes, asking He Wan if she had any cotton fabric.
“I want to prepare for the baby’s birth, which will happen to be in winter, and Meihui and I don’t have many tickets.”
He Wan nodded and said, "I saved a little bit before, originally intending to make bed sheets. Let me see if you can use it."
"Okay, okay."
He Wan turned around and deliberately rummaged through the box, finding some good fabrics that Lao Yun had prepared for her in her spatial storage.
It cost a bit, but the cotton quality is undeniable.
Qin Xuxiang was overjoyed because He Wan only charged him two yuan and didn't ask for a ticket.
They also gave us a lot, saying we could keep them to use as diaper pads.
"I still have some cotton here, do you want some?"
"Yes, yes, but we don't have that much money right now?"
"The child is the most important thing. You can give me the money anytime. Just find an old lady in the village to help make some small quilts for the child. We can't let the child suffer."
When Qin Xuxiang brought back a large pile of fabric and cotton under the cover of night, Xie Meihui hugged them and burst into tears.
Nobody knows how much they lack these things right now.
Any selfish feelings I had for He Wan vanished instantly.
