Lian Xiaomin took a sack from the space and filled it with five kilograms of cotton.
There is also a women's outfit, a thick cotton-padded jacket and trousers with dark purple floral patterns, a very thick dark red sweater, and a black men's sweater.
Five meters of blue plaid muslin and three pounds of gray wool thread.
I packed another bag of rice weighing ten kilograms.
These things are actually not very heavy, but the cotton and cotton clothes are bulging and take up quite a lot of space, so once they are packed like this, they are almost full.
Yueya gave a total of 500 Hong Kong dollars. Don’t convert it specifically. After deducting these things, give her sister 400 RMB.
Roll up forty big unity notes, wrap them in a white handkerchief, stuff them into the inner pocket of the cotton-padded jacket, and press the buttons.
On this handkerchief, there is a "little crescent" pattern embroidered by Yueya herself, and the words "peace" are sewn on it. I believe her sister will definitely understand.
The place where Cai Yueliang got married was Gaokan Commune, where the Wang brothers and sisters lived.
Although her husband has a leg disability and is quite old, he has a job as a chef in the canteen of the Gaokan Textile Factory. His name is Han Jianshe, and he is a very honest man.
The package address can be directly written as the address of the Korean construction unit. At this time, the postman will only deliver the order, and then you can go to the post office to pick up the package yourself.
Lian Xiaomin carried the large sack out of the alley, walked another thirty meters, entered the post office, went through the paperwork, and mailed the items.
The staff member kept looking at his watch, waiting to get off work. He didn't look very happy, but he worked efficiently and it wasn't a big deal.
Lian Xiaomin breathed a sigh of relief. Another thing was done. This county town was actually not that interesting to her, but it was still quite new to Yufang who was in the village all day.
I strolled back and returned to the state-owned hotel.
It was almost five o'clock. The two of them ordered two dishes, braised pork slices and stir-fried shredded potatoes, and two bowls of rice. Lian Xiaomin paid the bill and returned to the table to sit and chat.
Yufang whispered, "Xiaomin, last night you asked me whether I wanted to go to Hong Kong. I suddenly thought that if Xiao Lizi could go to a place like that, his family wouldn't have to suffer so much because of their rich peasant background."
"…When I was sitting in front of the window just now, I saw a few people with hats on their heads being escorted down the street…I thought, fortunately, my Li family has been poor peasants for generations and has never suffered such a thing."
Lian Xiaomin had no way of telling her the trajectory of her future development. She knew that things would start to get better if she could just endure another seven years.
Seven years later, Yufang was only twenty-two or twenty-three years old, still very young.
Huang Liyuan is three years older than Yufang. At that time, he was only about 26 years old. He still had a long life ahead of him. After the reform and opening up, the country would develop rapidly and undergo earth-shaking changes.
But these words cannot be said now.
The two of them chatted in low voices, and when the food was ready, they went over to bring it back and started eating.
After dinner, they left the state-owned restaurant, walked back to the yard on the back street of the grain station, and lay down to rest early.
Lian Xiaomin was busy with so many things the night before, so she needed to have a good sleep tonight.
A good night's sleep.
…
After getting up the next day, Lian Xiaomin finally recovered her energy, and they ate the rice porridge cooked by Yufang as usual.
There were no eggs left, so Lian Xiaomin took a can of beef, which was delicious when mixed with porridge.
After breakfast, they packed up and took a car to Sandaogou Commune, and then walked back to the village.
When I got home, it was around one o'clock in the afternoon.
"Mom, we're back!"
Yufang played with it for two days and was very satisfied. She ran into the house to find Zhang Dacui. She really wanted to let her see immediately how good the wool Xiaomin helped her buy was!
The little kids were lying in a row on the big kang, the triplets, Xiaofeng, Xiaofu, Xiaoya... Each little kid was taking a nap, which was really cute to look at.
"Keep your voice down! Sanbao is the most alert. If you wake him up, it will be a disaster. Once he starts crying, none of the other kids will be able to sleep."
Zhang Dacui gestured to Yufang to stop screaming, get off the kang quickly and put on her shoes, then dragged her to the next room to talk.
Lian Xiaomin saw her aunt coaxing Dundun to sleep, so she nodded and greeted her, but did not go in. Instead, she turned around and went to Yufang's room.
"Your bag is quite big. What's in it?"
"Hey, Mom, I spent all my money on wool? Look!"
Yufang is taking something out.
"So you resisted buying new clothes?"
"Xiaomin insisted on giving me a cotton-padded jacket. Look, this is what she bought for me! Doesn't it look good?"
Zhang Dacui stood up to get the money when she heard it. She looked at Lian Xiaomin who was standing at the door and smiled, "You kid, you're giving money to Yufang again. No, I'll get it for you. Yufang, how much is it in total?"
Lian Xiaomin quickly pushed her back into the house and made her sit on the edge of the kang.
"Oh, come on, Big Cui, that's something I gave to Yufang, I don't want your money!"
Zhang Dacui tried to stand up, but she wasn't as strong as Xiaomin. She tried several times but failed. Finally, she smiled and patted her arm.
"This little girl, where does she get so much strength? Okay, I won't go anymore, let me go!"
It's really laughable.
Yufang showed the wool to her mother and said, "Xiaomin, it's a deal. I'll knit you a sweater and trousers."
Lian Xiaomin sat next to her: "Don't knit for me, I really have two sweaters. How about this, you knit for Xiaofu and Xiaoya."
"How much thread can these two little guys use...Okay then."
There were eight kilograms of wool in total. Lian Xiaomin asked Yufang to knit the sweaters for Da Cuinai and Huang Liyuan first.
