When Jiang Wanwan was sending the letter, Lu Xiao insisted on following her. Originally, she just wanted to buy some local specialties as a token of her appreciation, but this guy ended up sending her a big bag of all kinds of dried fruits, mountain products, and peanuts from home.
Jiang Wanwan was wondering how Lu Xiao would react if he knew that the letter did not mention their marriage at all.
Well, take it slow. Sending more things can be considered as a prelude. When the Jiang family knows that these things are sent by the future son-in-law, perhaps they will not object too much to Lu Xiao as a son-in-law.
The things have been sent, and it’s time for Lu Xiao to go out to work on the river.
Because he was far from home, Jiang Wanwan tried her best to prepare more clothes for him, and even packed a new cotton-padded jacket for him, but he took it out, saying that he would not be cold while working and could not wear such a thick cotton-padded jacket, and only wanted to take his old cotton-padded jacket.
Jiang Wanwan knew that he was reluctant to wear it. She still remembered the day when the cotton-padded jacket was made. When he put it on, his eyes became so red as to be able to draw silk when he looked at her. Although he didn't say much, he was happy all day.
Unable to resist, Jiang Wanwan rummaged through the two-bedroom apartment and took out a woolen sweater.
She had originally bought the sweater for her father, but before she could send it off, he traveled through time.
I was originally worried that the wool sweater would be too conspicuous, so I planned to knit him a sweater myself. But now it’s too late, and I can’t care less. I can’t let him suffer the cold.
When Lu Xiao saw the woolen sweater, he was even more reluctant to wear it. This thing looked very precious, so Jiang Wanwan pretended to be angry.
In the end, Lu Xiao was defeated and put on the sweater in front of Jiang Wanwan.
It's true that clothes make the man. Lu Xiao is tall and has a good figure. The patched clothes he wears are very pleasing to the eye. When he wears a woolen sweater, he looks like a male model.
Jiang Wanwan circled around him twice with satisfaction, touching here and there.
"Lu Xiao, you must maintain your good figure." With this face and this figure, he will definitely be a handsome uncle like Hu Bing when he gets old.
Lu Xiao looked at her with shining eyes and realized one thing deeply. His mother was right. His wife was indeed lustful. She not only liked his face, but also his body.
After Lu Xiao confirmed again and again that Jiang Wanwan really didn't need to call his mother to accompany her, he gave her instructions again and again, and finally left home reluctantly.
When Li Ergou gathered, he found Lu Xiao. He didn't like being a river worker, but since Lu Xiao was going to do it, he had to follow him.
When I see Lu Xiao, I always feel that something is different. It seems that Brother Xiao is more handsome today.
It was not until Lu Xiao took off his coat halfway and saw the sweater underneath that he realized what was going on. Needless to say, this piece of clothing must have been bought by his sister-in-law. No one in the country could afford such clothes.
Seeing Lu Xiao take off his sweater without hesitation, Li Ergou finally couldn't help asking, "Brother Xiao, why did you take it off? It looks warm."
Lu Xiao carefully folded the sweater on his legs and casually explained, "The collar is too high, it makes me feel suffocated."
Li Ergou's eyes lit up, "Brother Xiao, if you don't like it, give it to me. I have a long neck and the collar is not too high."
Reach out and take it.
Lu Xiao kicked without thinking. If Li Ergou hadn't dodged it in advance, the kick would have been very heavy.
This bastard is getting bolder and bolder. He even dares to ask for the clothes his wife bought for him.
He carefully put the sweater into the bag and took out the photo inside to look at it.
He had only been out for half a day and he already missed her.
Jiang Wanwan was not idle at home either. Since Lu Xiao was not at home, she took the opportunity to go to the black market a few more times. The milk powder that was agreed upon last time was already prepared.
She didn't give it to the aunt right away. Good things should be kept with reserve. If they are given away too easily, they will seem worthless.
After sorting out the things to be sold on the black market and putting them back into the two-bedroom apartment, Jiang Wanwan picked up a small cloth bag and went out.
Lu Xiao was not at home, so she didn't have to rush back for lunch. There were big meat buns in the two-bedroom apartment that she had steamed when she was free, and there was also a lot of other food in the refrigerator. She could have lunch outside, so she didn't have to rush out and come back early.
It was cold, and she really didn't want to get up early.
Instead of taking the main road, I found a small path out of the village.
There is a large pond next to the village. In summer, the pond stores water to irrigate nearby farmland. Livestock are also kept nearby to graze and drink water. In the evening, men and children will bathe in the pond.
In autumn and winter, the entire pond is deserted, with large patches of dry reeds swaying in the wind and fewer people coming here. However, Jiang Wanwan saw a familiar figure by the pond.
Wu Xiaoyu was holding a bag in her hand and was putting reed fluff into the bag. Perhaps few people came here, so Wu Xiaoyu saw Jiang Wanwan early.
Wu Xiaoyu has always been grateful to Jiang Wanwan and greeted her from afar when she saw her.
There are fewer people here, so she can express her enthusiasm to Jiang Wanwan without worrying about her status.
Jiang Wanwan also walked over and was very curious to see that she had already filled half a bag of reed fluff.
Wu Xiaoyu explained to her, "It's going to get cold soon, and the reed fluff I stuffed in my quilt last year isn't warm enough anymore. I'll get some more so it can help me through the winter."
Jiang Wanwan was stunned for a moment. In her knowledge, duck down, goose down, cotton, silk and even chemical fiber cotton can be used as fillings for quilts. This was the first time she heard of reed fluff being used to fill a quilt.
Coming to this era, she has seen the difficulties faced by too many people, but she didn't expect that there are many sides that she can't see.
Even when I arrived in the county town, I was still thinking about these things and couldn't calm down for a long time.
She and the aunt agreed on a place for the transaction. Jiang Wanwan found a deserted place to take out the things, and carried the basket to the vicinity of the textile factory's staff quarters.
