Chapter 22 He is so useless!
"like!"
Zhang Lin smiled as she watched her father rub her head.
As expected, it’s her father, he is always very considerate.
[Although I didn’t win the Peking duck or barbecue, 500 kilograms of prawns is not bad!]
Zhang Lin is easy to please.
Zhang Guosheng seemed to be thinking about something.
Peking Duck
Kyoto is too far away and not easy to get there.
I have never heard of barbecue.
Alas, he can't even meet his family's requests, he is so useless!
No, he has to work harder and make sure Guaiguai can live a good life as he pleases!
He heard that the factory has a quota for sending people to Kyoto for training in the second half of the year, so he must try to get it!
When Zhang Guosheng heard that Guaiguai still had 200 kilograms of shrimp, he immediately prepared to find a reliable brother to exchange them for some prawns.
Save more money for Guaiguai.
Zhang Lin naturally didn't expect that her father would take her casual remark to heart.
After a while, Zhang Yaowen and his wife also arrived home one after another.
Seeing the blanched prawns in the pot, they smiled knowingly.
"It's time to eat."
The whole family was very happy. Zhang Guosheng and Chen Yuwei ate a lot of river shrimps, but had never eaten sea shrimps.
However, Zhang Yaowen had eaten there when he was in college and he missed it very much.
After Chen Yaxian told a few people what happened in the morning, Zhang Guosheng directly broke a pair of chopsticks.
Chen Yaxian was stunned.
When did her eldest grandson become so strong?
"She'll get her comeuppance!"
Zhang Yaowen's face was gloomy. Even though he had suffered a lot in recent years due to his special position, he had never been so angry.
Chen Yuwei's gentle temperament was completely gone, and no one knew what she was thinking about.
Chen Yaxian had the illusion that she had walked into the wrong house. Her daughter and son-in-law had changed so much in personality that she was a little uncomfortable for a moment.
[It doesn't matter. I earned another 150 Luck Points today. Zhang Yuzhen is a treasure. If we don't squeeze her dry, it would be unfair to our family's miserable past life.]
Zhang Lin's thoughts finally comforted the three people.
Zhang Guosheng didn't know whether to laugh or cry when he thought about treating Zhang Yuzhen as the source of his destiny.
“I haven’t eaten seafood in years. It’s really delicious.”
Zhang Yaowen felt relieved, enjoyed the food, and couldn't help but sigh.
Chen Yaxian nodded: "It's a rare thing that the prawns are blanched without smelling. Otherwise, it's not a good idea to stir-fry meat frequently, for fear of being reported."
Hearing this, they became even happier.
Come to think of it, prawns are much more convenient and safer than wild boar!
After eating, Zhang Guosheng threw all the prawn shells into the stove and burned them, leaving no trace.
The family cooked more than a pound of food at noon and packed two pounds for Chen Yaxian to take home.
Chen Yaxian refused to take it, saying that she couldn't eat so much by herself, and finally only took one kilogram.
There is more than a pound left, which I hid in the bucket and prepared to eat in the evening.
After Chen Yaxian turned around and left, Zhang Guosheng put the bucket into the space.
Now, they would not openly leave anything in their house that could give someone something to hold against them.
"Mom, you can go back and rest this afternoon. I'm not busy this afternoon. I'll take Guaiguai to work."
It was the beginning of the year and the post office was not too busy, so she made an agreement with the director to bring her child to work.
Because she had performed well over the years and had a good relationship with the director's wife, and the director knew that the child was injured, he did not make things difficult for her and agreed readily.
The premise is that it does not affect work.
Zhang Guosheng is envious every day.
The air quality and environment in their machinery factory were not very good, and he was just an ordinary worker, so it was not easy to take care of the little boy. Otherwise, he would have wanted to bring him to work.
Chen Yaxian nodded. She was old now and felt really tired after shopping for half a day.
After a short lunch break, the whole family went to work.
Zhang Guosheng's machinery factory was in the south of the city, and he walked alone.
Zhang Yaowen's school and Chen Yuwei's post office were just opposite each other, separated by a road. The two of them, holding Zhang Lin, arrived in less than ten minutes.
Zhang Lin looked around. This was the living circle where she had lived and learned since childhood, and it would also be the city center of the future.
It’s not bad at the moment. Although it’s not as lively as the riverside streets, it’s cleaner and tidier, and the roads are wider.
Outside the primary school is a county library that is several stories high.
It looks quite new in this era. In her previous life, when she was a child, this building was already very old, and it was even demolished and rebuilt with two high-rise buildings in the back.
The entrance of the post office is very conspicuous.
Chen Yuwei put Zhang Lin down at the door and led him inside.
"Sister Chen, this must be your daughter, poor little girl!"
A middle-aged woman in a military green suit took out two pieces of fruit candies and touched Zhang Lin's little face lovingly.
"Thank you, Auntie."
Zhang Lin smiled calmly, revealing her cute little white teeth.
After being touched so many times, she has already gotten used to her current identity as a child.
The post office is divided into two parts, with two rows of counters, one for remittance and cashing, and the other for mailing. There is a long wooden chair next to the door. There are four people working in the lobby, including Chen Yuwei. There are two clerks in the back office, as well as drivers, managers, and some employees in charge of delivery.
Although the clerk asked Chen Yuwei to bring Zhang Lin into the office, Chen Yuwei refused with a smile.
There are so many documents in the office that I can’t explain what they are.
Everyone knows their own business. Her girl is well-informed and has more knowledge than her. Although she is small, she is very strong. It may take two or three adult men to hold her down.
Let Zhang Lin sit on a long chair and fill her pocket with various candies so that she can take a look at them at any time and she will feel at ease.
Zhang Lin was not bored either. Watching the people coming in and out of the post office occasionally was like watching a period drama, which was quite interesting.
[By the way, I remember the 'The Whole Country is Red' stamp that became very popular decades later. It was issued in 1968.]
After standing there for a while, Zhang Lin saw someone buying stamps to mail letters, and then he suddenly realized something.
She felt like she had forgotten something.
The main reason is that I don’t care much about stamps and don’t pay any attention to them at all.
[It is said that this version of the wrong stamp was discontinued within less than a day of being issued, but many post offices released it in advance and sold a lot of it.]
[Twenty years later, it was sold at an auction for around 300,000.
Less than thirty years later, a brand new set of 50 "The Whole Country is Red" stamps was worthy of being called "national treasures", with a market price of over 10 million yuan in the 1990s.
Forty years later, a large red stamp can be sold for millions!】
I didn't pay attention to this stamp at first, but I saw it because I read a novel.
Zhang Lin didn't quite believe it, so he checked online and found out it was true!
Chen Yuwei, who was mailing something to someone, trembled her hands.
'The whole country is red'
Two months ago, the wrong version
After Chen Yuwei delivered the items to the customer, she opened her drawer with trembling hands.
Under a pile of newspapers, there were two full pages of "A Piece of Red."
As soon as the stamp arrived at the post office, she thought it was very beautiful. Plus, she had always liked beautiful stamps, so she bought two copies with her own money. She put them in the drawer of her workstation, wrapped them in newspaper, and marked her name on them.
Then I got busy and forgot to bring it home.
