Jiang Tang was also quite embarrassed: "Captain Luo, I want to go alone. If I go with a female comrade, she won't be able to help me much. If I go with a male colleague, if we can't get anything done, we might spend all the money we earned from selling tea. It's not worth it. Captain Luo, I'm not going home safely now. Let's not talk about this anymore. I'll quickly reconcile the account for you."
"Okay, okay, I'll let your sister-in-law cook first, and then you and your mother will come to my house for dinner."
"No need, Captain Luo, my mother has already started cooking."
Jiang Tang took out the money for this order: two yuan per jin (approximately 1000 kg), 2,000 jin (approximately 1000 kg), a total of 4,000 yuan. She also paid over 200 yuan for shipping. She also had to pay for her own travel, lodging, and meals over the past ten days, totaling over 200 yuan. Captain Luo asked Accountant Wang to reimburse Secretary Jiang first. The team suddenly had several thousand yuan extra, and several leaders were so happy they forgot to eat lunch. Jiang Tang couldn't help herself; she was exhausted. She collected the money and went straight home.
I could smell the aroma of meat before I even reached the yard.
"Mom, are you still making fried chicken today? Where did you buy the chicken?"
"Your Sanhua grandma's house."
"You've almost bought all their chickens."
"There are still two left. She said she'll have more chickens next year. If you're tired, take a rest. The meal will be ready soon. By the way, many people in the hospital want me to help buy some chickens. I counted and there are more than a dozen. Ask your team leader if you can buy them."
"More than a dozen? So many people want them?"
"One family wants two, planning to dry them and eat them later."
Jiang Tang thought this was a good thing: "Okay, I'll ask about it this afternoon."
After Jiang Tang finished speaking, he ran into the house. After a while, he ran to Liu Xiulan with a thief's grin on his face.
"Ding-ding-ding-ding, Comrade Liu Xiulan, this is a gift from your daughter. Please accept it." The sudden voice startled Liu Xiulan, making her furious. Just as she was about to say something, she noticed the khaki dress in the hands of the third brother. She was shocked: "Is it for me?"
"Ah, I saw it at an old tailor in Shenzhou. I thought it was particularly suitable for your identity as a teacher, so I made one for you. Because of this dress, I waited an extra day."
Liu Xiulan wiped her hands on her apron and unfolded the dress to examine it. The dress had a waist and a stand-up collar. "Isn't this too flashy?"
"It's pure khaki, no patterns at all. How could it be patterned?"
"I mean, it's so fashionable, can I wear it out?"
"Why not? It looks good. Mom, you go and try it. I'll light the fire."
Liu Xiulan hesitated for a moment, then smiled and went into the house. She was a little shy when she came over. But Jiang Tang thought it looked particularly good: "Mom, you should buy a few more sets of clothes like this. They make you look so young. You will definitely make my dad crazy when you go back."
"You're starting to talk nonsense again... Is this really beautiful?"
"They look nice. I also bought a shirt for my dad and a skirt for my sister." Jiang Tang stuffed the firewood in and pulled Comrade Liu Xiulan to see the spoils she had found.
I wanted to be praised, but ended up getting a burst of lion roars from Liu Xiulan: "Jiang Tang, you prodigal girl, my god, why don't you move the whole Shenzhou back."
"Mom, I just bought a few pieces of clothing and some local specialties. It's not much." Liu Xiulan pointed at the things she took out, which kept increasing and almost filled up the entire bed. "You call it not much?"
The delicious chicken was instantly lost in the blink of an eye after I saw my daughter wasting time eating it.
I was so angry with her.
Ginger candy is so delicious that you can eat it without any hesitation.
You have already bought it and you are going to enjoy it yourself, so why should you be angry?
"Comrade Liu Xiulan, please have some food. It's delicious."
Seeing her heartless look, Liu Xiulan suddenly stopped being angry.
On second thought, she just started working and earned her own money, so it's normal for her to spend it recklessly.
It was the same when she first started getting her salary.
Liu Xiulan was no longer angry, and she picked up the bowl and ate with such relish: "You can't spend money like this in the future. When you get your salary, you can spend a little and save a little. It's time to save up for your dowry.
The more dowry you have, the more confident you will be in your husband's family, understand?"
"I know, Mom. I won't do it again next time."
Jiang Tang feels that she should be a good girl now and listen to what she is told.
After dinner, the mother and daughter rested for a while.
Liu Xiulan ran to the backyard to look at the vegetable garden.
The last time she came, the flowers had only opened up a little. This time, she planted vegetables in small squares.
Liu Xiulan was quite satisfied with this.
When I had nothing to do, I went to the Lan family to ask how grandma in Xi'an made tea.
I saw that they had two rabbits in their backyard and looked at them curiously for a while.
Seeing her daughter coming up with so many ways to make money for the village, Liu Xiulan felt an inexplicable sense of pride.
When Jiang Tang just came out, he saw the exploration team walking from the village to the mountains.
There were four of us in total, and we had dinner at Zhang Ba's house for the past two days.
Captain Luo followed behind.
Captain Luo hurriedly introduced them: "Captain Yang, this is our team leader, Officer Jiang Tangjiang."
"Hello, Secretary Jiang. I'm sorry for disturbing you recently. Thank you for your cooperation."
"Captain Yang, did you find out anything?"
Captain Yang smiled and said, "Not yet. We're going to go inside."
Having said that, he left with the few people behind him.
Jiang Tang turned around and asked Captain Luo who was not planning to follow.
Captain Luo whispered, "There was quite a scene when they arrived. It was Zhang Ba who brought them back. That guy is not a reliable person. He got some rocks from who knows where, and the exploration team believed him. He came for two days and set up a lot of traps on the mountain we just opened. Fortunately, he didn't damage our vegetables much. He was mysterious and wouldn't tell us anything when asked."
"Don't tell me, how many days are they going to stay here?"
"I'm not sure, but their captain said today that they want to set up tents on the mountain."
"Not coming down?"
"They probably won't be long. You've been out for more than ten days. Do you want to go up and check on the vegetables we've planted?"
"Have they all grown out?"
"Some of them have grown out and are just showing their heads."
Jiang Tang followed Captain Luo for a walk up the mountain, and found that some vegetables had grown.
Some places look very moist, probably because some people have watered them.
After all, it belongs to every household now, and everyone takes good care of it.
Now the autumn corn seedlings have emerged and a new round of weeding has begun.
They all come up to prepare their own dishes after work before it gets dark.
"Captain Luo, some aunts in our compound want to buy some chickens. There are more than a dozen of them. Is this a collective purchase, or is it individual?"
"It's a family, each family has a set number of chickens, and they're not many. And everyone wants them, so it's not like tea."
"Okay, I'll ask my mom to buy a few in the village."
Liu Xiulan has already started.
