The family still exchanged half of the grain for money, and the rest for other grains.
After the settlement, Hu Xiaoyi and Li Aihua each carried a backpack and went to the county town to purchase "New Year's goods", that is, daily necessities.
All the money in the family was in Li Aihua's hands. After purchasing daily necessities, Li Aihua also took two military kettles, three enamel cups, and two kerosene lamps.
I also took a lot of cotton, linen, corduroy and cotton, as well as twine and other things.
She wanted to make some winter and spring clothes during the winter.
When Hu Xiaoyi saw Li Aihua carrying so many things, he quickly pulled Li Aihua aside and questioned her.
"Why did you buy these useless things? Don't you know how much money your family has?
If you spend like this, your family will be in dire straits next year!"
It was the first time that Hu Xiaoyi felt that Li Aihua was such a spendthrift.
“Of course I know how much money the family has.
The money you earned from the market last year, plus the money you earned from the village this year, adds up to eighty-eight yuan, forty-one cents—"
Hu Xiaoyi interrupted Li Aihua before she could finish speaking.
"Our family has saved up this little money with great difficulty, how could you spend it like this?
I also wanted to go home in a few days and talk to my dad about letting Jianya go to school next year.
In the past two years, her temper has not been so difficult to discipline, and it is time for her to go to school.
You've spent all this money, and next year your family will not only be starving, but won't even be able to raise enough money for your little girl's tuition."
He advised earnestly.
Li Aihua looked at Hu Xiaoyi and frowned.
In Hu Xiaoyi's heart, is she such a fool?
They just know how to accuse and question without asking the reasons.
"As for your daughter's schooling, you should go back and ask her first, so as to avoid making a wasted trip.
Also, you don't have to worry about money.
Not only you but also I make money at home. "
Li Aihua said this in a tough tone and broke free from Hu Xiaoyi's hand.
I continued to look for what I wanted to buy among the crowds in the supply and marketing cooperative.
This year she earned more than two hundred yuan from selling game and eggs.
My daughter said that this was her own money.
She can do whatever she wants with it.
It was the first time she earned so much money, and she wanted to buy some nice things to decorate her home.
This is her home with her daughter.
They also want what others have.
After being stabbed, Hu Xiaoyi's brain was blown by the cold wind, and his thoughts gradually became clear.
He remembered Li Aihua selling game and eggs.
It’s just that he didn’t notice these things very often, and ignored them over time.
But can Li Aihua really earn so much money?
Hu Xiaoyi went to see Li Aihua with doubts.
At this time, Li Aihua was queuing to pay.
Hu Xiaoyi stood beside Li Aihua and glanced at her overflowing backpack and the pile of things in her arms.
The corner of his eye twitched.
How much does it cost to have so many things?
"Let me do it." Hu Xiaoyi wanted to help Li Aihua get some things.
Li Aihua glanced at Hu Xiaoyi and asked him to take some of the things in her arms.
There were so many things and the line was so long, it was tiring for her to carry them all.
Li Aihua has been selling eggs here for several months and has become familiar with the salesperson. When they saw her buying so many New Year's goods, they joked about it.
Li Aihua chatted with them with a smile.
Hu Xiaoyi looked at Li Aihua who was talking so eloquently, and his expression was as if he had seen a ghost.
Is the person in front of him still his daughter-in-law Li Aihua?
Li Aihua didn't feel the slightest bit of the shock in Hu Xiaoyi's heart.
Put the things you bought into the two people's backpacks.
When they arrived at the city gate and took the ox cart back to the village, Li Aihua put her backpack in Hu Xiaoyi's backpack.
It was used to cover the things in the big backpack, leaving only the two pieces of cloth in her small backpack outside.
Don't show off your wealth. My daughter taught her that.
After going to buy New Year's goods, Hu Xiaoyi was deeply shocked.
When I got home, I quietly went back to my room and lay down on the kang.
Seeing Li Aihua buy so many things, Hu Lin asked, "How much did it cost?"
"I bought a lot of things but because I didn't have enough industrial tickets, they were more expensive. I spent more than 100 yuan."
Li Aihua behaves well in front of her daughter, for she is afraid that her daughter will say she is a spendthrift.
Hu Lin listened and raised his eyebrows, "You spent all this money?"
"No, I used family money for daily necessities." Li Aihua felt a little embarrassed.
Her little tricks seem quite dishonest.
"It seems that the medicine and nutritional supplements have paid off! My body has improved and my brain has started to grow."
Hu Lin praised it.
Li Aihua smiled shyly, "My girl, I bought a lot of cloth.
Cat, during the winter, I will make clothes for you.
I'll make you two more thick winter clothes so you can change into them next winter.
