After hearing Hua Wanli's experience today, Wan Qingliu also sighed that his granddaughter was so lucky.
"Now that you both have jobs and work in the same unit, you should both be given priority when it comes to housing allocation in the future. Let's call your parents and his parents over to discuss the marriage."
Wan Qingliu thought again of his third son who was still serving in the army. A lot of things had happened during this period, so he had to write a letter to tell him and send him some supplies.
Life at home became better, and four out of the five brothers and sisters benefited from it, but the fourth brother joined the army early and rarely returned home since then. No matter how good the conditions at home were, he was thousands of miles away and could hardly enjoy the benefits.
I could only send him some good things from time to time so that the fourth brother could have a much better life than others in the army.
When it comes to writing to the fourth brother, Hua Xuguo also gets excited. Of the four brothers, he and the fourth brother are the least favored at home! Hua Aihua is the eldest, and Mom loves her! Hua Qingping, the youngest, is Mom's sweetheart! Hua Xianghong, the only daughter, is Mom's favorite!
Only he and the fourth brother, Hua Jingmin, were neither good nor bad. They didn't have the upper hand like the eldest brother, nor were they as lovable as the younger brother. Especially during those years when they were naughty, even dogs hated them. So they shared the same suffering and had the best relationship.
Later, the fourth child went to the army and could not see his mother at home. His mother missed him very much. He Hua Xuguo hung around in front of his parents every day and became the most annoying one.
If I talk too much, I will be filled with tears.
In the letter, Hua Xuguo boasted about how cute, smart and lovable his daughter was. He wrote a whole page of praise for his daughter. In the end, he suggested that his younger brother find a partner and get married as soon as possible, and also have a cute baby.
Wan Qingliu has spent more than twenty years in modern times. He has learned everything he needs to learn and even practiced calligraphy, writing neatly and well on paper.
She first described the family's recent developments, saying the second son had a daughter, that Lili had found a boyfriend, that she was working at a textile factory, and that she and her boyfriend were getting married. She also mentioned that if her salary wasn't enough, her family could send her money. She rambled on for another two pages.
Hua Xuguo looked at it and said, "Mom, he's a military officer and his salary is very high! Why don't you give me some subsidies? I'm the poorest!"
Wan Qingliu kicked him and said, "You're right in front of me. You eat the most of what I earn! How dare you act like a spoiled brat?"
Hua Xuguo covered his buttocks. What a shame! He was already over thirty years old and still got kicked in the buttocks. Wasn’t it embarrassing?
Hua Wanchi, who was watching from the side, laughed unkindly.
Seeing his daughter giggling, Hua Xuguo picked her up and laughed:
"My Chi Chi is so cute, and her smile is the cutest!"
Hehe, dad is the cutest, Hua Wanchi laughed even more happily.
Hua Wanchi took out a bunch of dried vegetables, rice, flour, brown sugar, white sugar and soap from the space. Wan Qingliu stuffed all these things into a package and sent it over there.
They were all very common items, but in the 1970s, they were very scarce. Fresh meat spoils easily, so Wan Qingliu sent ten kilograms of cured meat, five kilograms of cured fish, and two kilograms of cured sausage.
In the evening, Hua Wanchi simply signed in in real life and got a bicycle ticket and 30 yuan.
In the past few days, Hua Wanchi had a guess that perhaps the things signed in were related to current needs, some of which were his own and some of which were others'.
But she really didn't understand why she had to sign in at home and get two bicycle tickets.
Does the Hua family need bicycles?
Forget it, just give it to grandma. I guess she has her own arrangements.
Before Hua Wanchi could take any action, her grandmother came to her on her own.
"Chibao, can I ask you something?"
Hua Wanchi said ambitiously, "If you need anything, just tell me. I won't refuse!"
After a moment of silence, Wan Qingliu decided to pretend he hadn't heard and asked directly, "Chi Chi, do you have a sewing machine, a radio, and a watch?"
Hua Wanchi understood. When she heard that her eldest sister was going to marry her eldest brother-in-law, her grandmother was preparing a dowry! The man was weak, so the woman should give more to make life easier for the couple and give her eldest sister more confidence to marry.
"Who am I to be your granddaughter? How can I not hoard this?"
Hua Wanchi suddenly became proud. How else could she be said to have foresight? She even stockpiled this when she was stockpiling goods, just for today, so she could use it!
At the same time, looking at the progress stuck at 99% on the system panel, Hua Wanchi felt that his elder sister's marriage might encounter some minor setbacks.
But she thought that it had come to the last 1%, and this little twist was nothing. She just hoped that once her elder sister's wedding was over, her small task would be successfully completed!
Wan Qingliu came to ask his granddaughter just to try his luck, but he didn't expect that there really was one. He used to think that his granddaughter was wasting her time reading those novels, but now it seems that they are not completely useless.
She took out 600 yuan and said, "Chi Bao, I won't take advantage of you. 600 yuan is enough for these three things of yours, isn't it?"
"It's almost there."
Hua Wanchi answered calmly, and at the same time glanced at the stack of unity bonds, his eyes almost shining.
Wan Qingliu covered her chest, heartbroken: "Okay, okay, you tell me how much you want, give me milk!"
Hua Wanchi couldn't help but said, "Grandma, you are so rich."
600 in this era is a huge sum of money! I thought it was a stockpiling and cool novel route, but I didn’t expect that my grandmother had already gone through the plot of the cool novel heroine.
By the time her turn came, she was useless!
All I can do is supplement what grandma doesn’t have like I do now.
Hua Wanchi felt a bit sad. He looked up at the sky, with two sparkling eyes in the corners. He said with a vicissitudes of life:
"Granny, do you know?"
Wan Qingliu: "What should I know?"
"Money," Hua Wanchi turned his head with a heartache, "is the most insignificant thing in this world."
Wan Qingliu ruthlessly exposed the truth: "Really? When you received the 700 million inheritance, you couldn't suppress the corners of your mouth because someone was holding you back?"
"Ahem," Hua Wanchi choked, "Anyway, I don't want any money!"
"So what do you want?"
Hua Wanchi: "I want you to take me around the village!"
Hehehe, even if she has money, she can’t spend it, she just likes to do whatever she wants!
After going through so much trouble, just for this?
Wan Qingliu was a little speechless: "Why didn't you tell me earlier? How could grandma not agree?"
In reality, Hua Wanchi just wanted to say that these things were free to take, no money required. But she was afraid her grandmother would be polite to her, so she just pretended to be so. Of course, if it were ten years later, she wouldn't have treated money so lightly.
The most important thing is that she can’t spend it!
I might as well take the opportunity to propose a condition to satisfy her wish to go out and see the world.
Hua Wanchi waved his hand, and a pile of things appeared on the ground.
Needless to say, the three major items for a wedding include a mandarin duck quilt cover, a red double happiness pillowcase, pillowcases, quilts, sheets, enamel basins, bowls and cups, a large piece of red cloth, a kettle, and even a coal stove.
Wan Qingliu was stunned.
She was shocked for a while before she slowly said:
"Chi Bao, you've stockpiled quite a bit."
