Chapter 109 Happy New Year to Everyone
On the way, Bai Jing also heard from the conversation between the two that Uncle Zhou and the Zhang family indeed had a very good relationship.
Bai Jing almost filled the cart with 300 kilograms of rice, 100 kilograms of flour, as well as refined flour, millet, etc.
But she didn't expect that after Uncle Zhou finished loading her car, he saw that there was still some space and asked, "Comrade Bai, I also want to buy some food to take back. What do you think..."
Bai Jing understood what he meant. "Of course, Uncle Zhou, I'll be watching over you. Go ahead and buy it. We can easily take one truck back."
The grain station sells grain, but not everyone can buy it.
Without connections, you can't even get through the door.
Unless it is time to distribute rations, then buy some coarse grains.
Fine grains are so precious that you can’t buy them even if you have money.
After Zhang Cuicui helped Bai Jing, she was drafted by her colleagues at the station and has long been missing.
However, when she left, she told Bai Jing that she didn't need to wait for her, so she went back with Uncle Zhou later.
Uncle Zhou came back quickly. After all, he didn’t buy as much as Bai Jing, so he could carry it all back in one trip.
"Uncle Zhou, do you want to buy some more?" Bai Jing asked with confusion when she saw that there was only a sack.
Unexpectedly, Uncle Zhou shook his head and said, "No need, I'll just buy these." After that, he placed the bag of fine grains somewhere closer to himself and fixed it in place.
After everything was tied up with hemp rope, Uncle Zhou took out a large piece of patched coarse cloth from under the cart.
"Comrade Bai, come and help me. Let's cover this up."
Bai Jing was a little confused, "Why?"
Seeing her like this, Uncle Zhou knew that she didn't know much about the people here, so he smiled and explained a few words to her.
Bai Jing understood as soon as she heard it.
Afraid of angering others.
"Uncle Zhou is really thoughtful."
With the joint efforts of the two, they pulled a cart of grain back to the Bai family's yard.
After Bai Jing unloaded the grain, she gave Uncle Zhou one dollar, as agreed beforehand.
Uncle Zhou was not polite and took it, "My house is behind Cuicui's house. If you need any work pulling a cart in the future, you can come to me. I promise to keep my mouth shut." After receiving the money, Uncle Zhou did not forget to advertise himself.
Bai Jing nodded, "Okay, I'll definitely ask Uncle Zhou for help if there's work. Thank you for your hard work this time, Uncle Zhou. This is for the children at home. It's not worth much, Uncle Zhou, you have to accept it."
She took out a small bag of fruit candy that she had prepared long ago and handed it over.
Uncle Zhou saw that it was candy and immediately refused, "No, it's too precious. I can't accept it."
Bai Jing didn't give him a chance to regret, so she threw him into Uncle Zhou's arms, then jumped into her own yard and closed the door in one go.
Uncle Zhou was holding a small bag of candy, which was disheveled in the wind.
Then a big smile appeared on his face, "He's a good kid."
Bai Jing didn't know that her kindness helped her second sister change her life.
Of course, this is a later story.
After putting the food back into the kitchen storage room one by one, Bai Jing looked at the half-full floor with a bright smile on her face.
There was no way. In just a few hours, Bai Jing had changed so much that at least people close to her could notice her changes.
If you ask why Zhang Cuicui didn't notice it, it's because she was busy with urgent matters and had no mood to care about anything else.
She'll be able to react after some time.
Bai Jing had also prepared her excuse long ago. She had obtained a rejuvenating formula from Xiao Jin and planned to give it to her mother, aunts and sisters in the future.
At worst, she could use the time to prepare the things, and then hand them in when Cuicui realized what was going on.
Good friends don’t think too much.
Looking at the food in the storage room, Bai Jing had an urge to fill the entire room.
It is better to act than to think. Since she had a day off, she went to the supply and marketing cooperative to start shopping.
When she rested at the table in the yard again, the storage room in the kitchen had been filled up by her.
Yes, it is filled in the true sense of the word.
As the old saying goes, a full bag of grain is worse than a full bag of money.
These days, whoever has food has hope of survival, and there is no need to bow to the cost of making a living.
Satisfied, Bai Jing couldn't sit still. Thinking that the winter clothes had not been made yet, she hurried to stock up some cotton fabrics.
I had one at home before, but how can I use it in a new home?
After going in and out several times, Bai Jing finally prepared everything.
Now she was waiting for her mother to come back and make arrangements. She couldn't go beyond her mother's permission on such an important decision, otherwise her mother would feel that her position as housekeeper was threatened.
Having lived here for some time, her mother knew a lot of people around here. She didn't need to take care of these little things; her mother was enough.
Seeing that there was still time, she bought some medicinal herbs from Xiao Jin and planned to make a rejuvenating recipe. After all, her changes were quite obvious, and if she didn't have a source, it would be difficult to explain to people who knew her.
Fortunately, this thing is not too complicated, otherwise Bai Jing would have thought of another way.
Hearing a familiar voice coming from outside, Bai Jing looked up at the sky and realized that it was her younger brother and sister-in-law returning from school.
"Second sister, why is our front door open? Is there a thief inside?" As soon as the younger brother Bai Yong arrived at the door of his house, he saw that the gate of his yard was open and he pulled his second sister with a vigilant look on his face.
Okay, he's a coward.
Bai Ling glared at him and thought to herself, "Are you stupid? Don't you see where we are? Even if there was a thief, how could he leave the door wide open?"
"Maybe it's my parents or my elder sister who has returned." After saying that, she pushed her silly brother away.
Ever since coming to town, her brother's brain seemed to have forgotten what he had done in the village. He always did stupid things, and she didn't even want to say she knew him.
When Bai Jing heard what his second sister said, he rushed into the yard.
The first thing he saw was his elder sister looking at him with a smile on her face.
She shouted happily, "Big sister."
You can tell from her voice that she is indeed excited.
"Oh, you remembered it was the eldest sister. I thought I was going to be a thief today." A joking tone came from Bai Jing's mouth.
Bai Yong, who came in from behind, looked embarrassed and said, "Sister, it's a misunderstanding, a misunderstanding. You are my dear sister, how could you be a thief? Even if I am a thief, you can't be a thief."
Bai Yong's mind was working very quickly at this time, and he immediately spoke out to coax him.
Bai Ling rolled her eyes again and said, "Big sister." But she still called out happily.
"Well, you're back just in time. Come and see what good stuff big sister has made." As she spoke, Bai Jing shook the black medicinal paste in her hand.
Fortunately, it just looks a little ugly, but the smell is not bad.
The three of them stepped forward together.
When they saw what the eldest sister was holding, they all showed a look of disgust on their faces.
Bai Jing is not blind, so how could she not see their disgust?
"Hmph, if you don't like it, I won't give it to you." I originally wanted to use them as experimental subjects, but now, I won't give them anymore.
"No." Bai Yong was a flatterer. "I trust you, big sister. Tell me, do you want to drink this or not?"
A face full of fearlessness in preparing for death.
Bai Jing was so angry that she laughed, "Go away, it has nothing to do with you."
After saying that, he waved to Bai Ling and said, "Second sister, come here and try it. This thing is good for your skin."
