Chapter 160: What are you carrying?
The military coat that was complained about by employees in the previous life also came in handy.
You know what, although it doesn’t look good, it’s really warm.
She was fully armed and wrapped herself tightly. When Zhong Xuexi saw her dressed like this, her original idea of going with her was dispelled.
"Sister-in-law...Sister-in-law, you shouldn't feel cold here, right?"
Zhong Zhiyang happened to see this scene from inside the house. He coughed twice and said, "Sister-in-law, your glasses are nice. Do you have any more?"
Of course not!
Lin Ziqiu wears waterproof and fog-proof goggles that can protect her eyes and prevent freezing, so no matter how heavy the rain is, it will not hurt her eyes.
"This is the only one Ruan Qing gave me."
After that, she urged: "Stay at home and don't go out if you can. If it's fast, I can come back for lunch."
"Okay! I'll prepare lunch!"
Zhong Zhiyang didn't know the address, and it was difficult to find a place in such a rainy day, otherwise he would definitely be willing to help pick people up.
The most important thing is that Lin Ziqiu will not let him take any risks, because his grandmother will be worried.
All the way out of the military compound, many people were standing under the eaves watching the rain.
When passing by Meng Zhiwei's house, only his wife Shen Xiu was standing at the door. It seemed that she had just seen her husband off. When she saw Lin Ziqiu, she didn't recognize him for a moment.
After a while, he called her, "You must be He Yang's wife, Xiao Qiu!"
Lin Ziqiu paused. Her mouth was not visible through the scarf, so she could only raise her voice a few decibels, "Aunt, it's me!"
Shen Xiu has always been a very kind person to her younger generation. She said worriedly, "Where are you going dressed like this? It's raining heavily outside, it's very dangerous. Don't go out if you can!"
"I'll go pick up my grandpa and the others. It's okay, I'll be careful." Lin Ziqiu didn't dare to walk too fast. After all, the rain was very heavy and he couldn't see the road ahead clearly.
Shen Xiu sighed, "You are such a filial girl! I can't stop you now. You should go early and come back early. Be careful and watch your step!"
"I know, Aunt! By the way, have you stockpiled any food at home? I'm afraid this rain will last for a long time!" When they were distributing supplies before, she remembered that no one was at home in the Meng family.
It is said that Shen Xiu returned to her parents' home.
They distributed the supplies a little too early, and then the rain stopped, so many people were not as nervous as before.
Even the supplies in the supply and marketing cooperatives are not as scarce as before.
But unexpectedly, the rain started falling again.
I'm afraid it caught many people off guard.
Shen Xiu replied: "There is still some food at home. I can't eat much by myself. You don't have to worry about me."
Lin Ziqiu thought for a moment and said, "Aunt, I'll bring some to you later!"
"No, no! Go and do your thing!" Shen Xiu waved her hand, "Be careful!"
Although she was rejected, Lin Ziqiu still kept her eyes on it, "Okay! Auntie, I'll leave first, you go back to your room!"
She arched her eyebrows, waved at her, and continued walking forward.
Shen Xiu looked at Lin Ziqiu's receding back, and for a moment she felt that her eyes were particularly familiar, as if she had seen them somewhere.
···
The Li family is really far away from the military compound.
I didn’t feel anything before, but now I walked in the rain, step by step, for more than an hour.
Fortunately, Lin Ziqiu was dressed warmly, otherwise he might have gotten frostbite.
"Grandpa! You don't need to bring anything. Everything is prepared at home. Just follow me!" Lin Ziqiu took out a few scarves, hats and gloves from the space in advance, which were prepared for them.
The Tian family's house is in this alley. When she passed by just now, she had already met Tian Xiaofeng and asked him to get ready to leave.
Mr. Li has had a cold these past couple of days and he hasn't fully recovered yet. He looks listless.
Seeing his granddaughter came to pick him up in such heavy rain, he just scolded her. But the girl still said with a grin that she was an indestructible cockroach and this little rain could not stop her at all.
It really made him angry and sad.
"I won't bring anything else, but I smoked some bacon and fish for you, you have to take that!"
I had originally asked Zhong Heyang to come and get it, but he forgot about it. It's easy to forget things when you're old, but he remembered it now.
Lin Ziqiu didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "Okay, okay, you put these on first, I'll go get them from the kitchen."
Mr. Li nodded, "Okay."
As soon as I entered the kitchen, I saw a dozen pieces of bacon and a few cured fish hanging on the beam at the corner of the stove.
When I was young, my mother would smoke some every Chinese New Year, and it tasted especially delicious.
Later, after her mother passed away, she could no longer eat such delicious food during the New Year and was satisfied just to fill her stomach.
But grandpa still remembers that this is her favorite food.
She couldn't put them all in the space, otherwise she would have to explain to her grandfather, so she had to take a very large snakeskin bag to put them all in.
It's a bit heavy. Fortunately, she has exercised, otherwise she would not be able to carry it by herself.
In the main hall, Tian Gui and Tian Xiaofeng both came.
"Sister! What are you carrying? Let me help you!"
Tian Xiaofeng is a diligent young man with a keen eye for life, especially towards Lin Ziqiu. He is really like a little fanboy. As long as Lin Ziqiu is around, he will revolve around his sister.
Mr. Li was now wearing a scarf, a hat, and a coat. He raised his cane and knocked on the ground twice, "Xiaofeng, help your sister move all the things into the car."
"car?"
Lin Ziqiu was puzzled, "Where did the car come from?"
Tian Xiaofeng grinned and said, "I borrowed an ox cart in exchange for three bags of rice. I promised to return it to them after the rain is over."
"Good job, Xiaofeng."
Lin Ziqiu couldn't help but praise it. In this situation, having an ox cart would be much more convenient.
My grandfather has weak legs. If he really has to walk like this, I’m afraid his legs won’t be able to bear it and he might even get frostbite.
After being praised by his sister, Tian Xiaofeng felt like his tail was about to rise to the sky, and he was full of energy. "Sister, I'll do it! You help Grandpa Li get in the car!"
Tian Gui was waiting for them outside.
There wasn't much stuff, so it wasn't that hard for the ox to drag it.
Mr. Li was ill, so Lin Ziqiu covered his mouth tightly with a scarf to prevent cold air from entering and making his condition worse.
Tian Xiaofeng and his father sat in the front, driving the car straight to the military compound.
The Zhong family had already been preparing food. After waking up, Li Guixiang learned that Lin Ziqiu had gone out alone. She stood at the door worriedly, looking out for her to come back.
From a distance, she saw a cow being driven towards them, with a person on a cart behind it. She excitedly shouted into the house, "Xiao Qiu is back! Come on, come on, is the hot water ready?"
She asked Zhong Xuexi to prepare some hot water so that they could take a hot bath when the people came back.
Zhong Xuexi heard the sound and ran out, "It's already been cooked, a big bucket!"
Anyway, the kettle at home was always on, and when it was on, the water was poured into the small bathhouse in the backyard. If Lin Ziqiu couldn't come back, there was no need to worry about wasting water. Zhong Xuexi thought she could take a bath herself.
A group of people got off the ox cart.
