After seeing everyone off, Bai Guoguo stretched his body, stretched his muscles, and began to sort out his things.
It was already dark at this time. Because I had not thought carefully when I was shopping during the day and did not buy a kerosene lamp, I had to find the candles I had prepared earlier in the space to light up the room.
Fortunately, she brought two large sacks, and no one knew what was inside. Even if she took out some daily necessities, no one would be suspicious.
Put two sets of work clothes, two thin cotton jackets, a military coat, and two sets of sweaters and trousers into the kang cabinet.
She took out a bottle of vanishing cream, a box of clam oil, a comb, and some hair ties and placed them on the dressing table.
Put a piece of soap in the soap box on the basin rack, and put an enamel peony pot with the characteristics of the times on the basin rack as a washbasin.
The mouthwash cup, toothpaste, toothbrush, and towel are all placed in this basin.
Looking at the bowls in the cupboard, I feel that there are a little too few. If I have the chance in the future, I can pretend to bring some back from outside, and then take out the retro bowls in the space and use them.
Although I don’t plan to entertain guests often, it’s nice to have a few extra bowls and plates.
She spread the kang mat that Team Leader He Gang had helped her exchange from Grandma Gao's house on the kang, took out an 8-jin mattress and spread it on top, and then took out a quilt that also weighed 8 jin and put it on the mattress.
Then take out a pure cotton pillow and the kang for sleeping on tonight is ready.
Since the kang had already been heated up from cooking, after Bai Guoguo ran to the space to wash up, he came out and lay down on the kang, letting out a comfortable sigh.
On this cold early spring night, it is so comfortable to have a warm kang, a soft quilt and a mattress.
The quilt, mattress and pillow are all made of Xinjiang cotton that Bai Guoguo specially prepared before traveling through time. The experience is simply too good to be true.
And in order to avoid being conspicuous, I bought the old-fashioned quilt pattern, which is a quilt with a floral sheet in the middle and white cotton cloth sewn on the four sides.
This style was very popular in the 1970s and 1980s. Even the pillows were patterned with large peony flowers, so there was no need to worry about being seen by others.
Bai Guoguo was lying on the kang, thinking about the series of events that happened today, especially those about Lao Bai's family. He didn't know whether it went smoothly or not.
As I was thinking, I fell asleep unknowingly, and when I opened my eyes again it was already the next morning.
"Ahhhhhhh, I don't want to get up, so let the quilt seal me forever!"
Bai Guoguo stretched out his body, rolled over twice in the quilt, and kept wailing in his heart. He really didn't want to get up.
But when I thought about the fact that the work had not been completed yet and I didn't know what the rules were, I had to sit up impatiently, scratch my hair, and get off the bed.
Who knew that as soon as I lifted the quilt, I almost shrank back into the cold. The thin pajamas on my body did not keep me warm at all.
So he grabbed his toothbrush, cup and towel, and tremblingly went back to the space to wash up.
Although it is a bit of a luxury to use the spiritual spring water in the space to brush teeth and wash face, there is always so much spring water and it will never run out, so I won’t save it.
Moreover, the teeth brushed with spiritual spring water become whiter, and even the skin on the face becomes more delicate.
She thought she might be assigned to do some physical work today, so she simply drank a large glass of spiritual spring water, which not only relieved her fatigue but also increased her strength.
In this way, she is not afraid of doing physical work. Otherwise, with the original owner's small body, Bai Guoguo would have found a way to run back to the city to inherit the job of Bai's parents.
After maintaining good personal hygiene in the space and drinking a glass of spiritual spring water, I felt full of strength.
Bai Guoguo came out of the space, found some thermal underwear and put it on. He wore a green military uniform and a military coat on the outside, and a pair of suede leather shoes on his feet.
He also put on a Lei Feng hat that was very characteristic of Northeast China, and then opened the door.
The sky outside is gloomy and looks like it's going to rain. No wonder it was so cold this morning.
"Good morning, Bai Zhiqing. I'm coming to the backyard to fetch two buckets of water."
As soon as Bai Guoguo went out, he met Yang Xiaoyong who was fetching water from the back.
Yang Xiaoyong, who had a delicious meal with Bai Guoguo last night, greeted her warmly.
"Good morning, Yang Zhiqing too. Why is the yard so quiet? Where are the others?"
Bai Guoguo looked around and found the yard quiet. The two female educated youth who had come from a few years ago were nowhere to be seen. The door of Wang Qiuyu, who lived in a room across from hers, was not open yet.
"The old educated youth have all gone to work, leaving only the four of us in the yard. Before you got up, the team leader told us that we could go to the commune today to buy some things we needed, and that work would be arranged tomorrow."
Yang Xiaoyong was the first one to get up among the four of them, and the person sent by the team leader in the morning told him this.
He now comes to the backyard to fetch some water from the pot of the old educated youth in Shuijie to boil some water to drink. The mornings in Northeast China are still very cold, and cold water is simply not drinkable.
"Thank you for telling me the news. I also need to buy some things. Do you want to go together?"
"That's good, I'll have a companion. But this time I'll have to walk, and it might take more than two hours."
Yang Xiaoyong got a headache when he thought about this. It was easy when he went there, but if he bought too many things when he came, he wouldn’t know how to bring them back.
"Things will work out when the time comes. I'll see if I can get a ride with my fellow villagers for a while."
Bai Guoguo waved her hand and said nonchalantly that according to her observation, the brigades around here seemed to be quite wealthy.
When they were coming back on the tractor yesterday, they met a lot of mules pulling carts on the road. If they paid some money for their hard work, it shouldn't be a problem to get a ride.
