The winter life is very comfortable.
Except for worrying about Wei Jianguo, everything is fine.
That day Tiantian brought a piece of news that a supply truck was going to Cuiyuan City to purchase New Year's goods, and the military wives could be taken along.
Song Shuqian was a little moved.
She asked, "Is it safe? I like Mongolian costumes very much. This Spring Festival, I want to make a set of Mongolian winter clothes for An An Le Le."
Tiantian was also a little tempted, "I want to do it too, you teach me."
“No problem, let’s go check it out.
I also want to buy two pairs of boots. Those kind of felt boots are worn by many aunts in the yard. They look very comfortable and are waterproof. "
Having said so much, they still don’t know whether it is safe.
Song Shuqian still wanted to go, and said, "Before Wei Jianguo left, he didn't say that we couldn't go out with the supply truck, so it should be safe."
Tiantian also thought so, "It's okay, we have the troops. Besides, there are so many people, we are not afraid."
The two hit it off and decided to follow the supply truck to the city for purchases.
Many sisters-in-law from the staff quarters also went with us.
On the day, Song Shuxi woke up the two children at five o'clock, helped them pack up as quickly as possible, and instructed them, "There are snacks prepared for you in the small bag. Be careful and listen to Aunt Guan."
The two children agreed in a daze and followed their mother obediently.
The Spring Festival is coming soon, and every household has a lot of things to purchase, so there are an extra many people going into the city today.
After discussion, everyone decided to entrust the child to Mrs. Guan, the political commissar's wife, for unified management.
Mrs. Guan also comes from a large family, as you can guess from her surname, Guan, Guwaljia clan.
However, her family joined the revolution very early, and three of them were martyrs, full of glory.
When the movement started, she was also affected, but the political commissar was a man of loyalty and righteousness, so she applied to guard the border and has lived here for 4 years.
Due to various factors, Mrs. Guan did not suffer much.
Maybe it's because of their similar experiences, or maybe it's because of their similar temperaments, Song Shuqian and Guan Saozi get along well.
It’s just that Mrs. Guan is in her forties this year and is not of the same generation as Song Shuxi. They often can’t play together and can just chat.
Song Shuxi has lived here for a long time and found that in the family compound, except for some girls who married here from nearby villages, most of these outsiders have stories.
Send the two children to Mrs. Guan's home.
Song Shuqian waved her hand and left.
The two children looked at their mother eagerly and walked away quickly without looking back.
Mrs. Guan is so funny, she is still a little girl, just like a bird out of a cage.
There were already a dozen military wives gathered there waiting for the bus, including Tiantian and Saren.
Song Shuqian walked over quickly and said, "Fortunately I'm not late," and calmed her slightly rapid breathing.
Song Shuxi was wearing something particularly thick today. The clothes were made of mink fur inside and a layer of cloth outside as a cover. They were very long, reaching all the way to her calves.
The shoes on my feet are the kind that are made of super thick snow cotton, with sheepskin on the outside and rabbit fur on the inside, and they also have anti-slip soles.
He wore a hat with big ears and a scarf covering half of his face, leaving only his eyes exposed.
The whole person looks like a clumsy penguin, but it's super warm.
Tiantian laughed at her, "Just now we were talking about where this little duck came from, and how it was moving towards this side step by step."
Song Shuqian snorted, "It's too cold, and it will be even colder when driving. This outfit of mine is like a quilt, it's very warm."
Tiantian reached out and touched it, and found something hidden inside. "Huh? When did you buy it? I've never seen you wear it."
"When I first got married, I went to Harbin with Wei Jianguo to buy it. At that time, I thought the winter in Northeast China was very cold, so I bought the thickest one. I didn't expect the winter in Huludao was not that cold, so I didn't use it. This time it's good, I took it all out.
And these shoes and hat were bought at that time."
"You are so prophetic. You have prepared for this so many years in advance."
Song Shuxi boasted, "So now I'm not cold, but you are."
Saren found it very funny to see the two kids bickering with each other. The two mothers now have children no older than 10 years old in total.
Tiantian hummed, "When we get in the car later, let me warm you up and I'll carry you up."
Song Shuqian was about to say that she could do it herself when she noticed Tiantian's look.
Well, she really couldn't get up there dressed like this today.
"Then I'll lend it to you reluctantly."
The two reconciled happily.
The car came on time.
The people in charge of driving today are Zhang San and Li Si.
The two men were very thoughtful and even spread hay in the truck bed so that the sisters-in-law could sit more comfortably.
Song Shuqian was right. It was really cold when driving in the car, and the wind was blowing inside.
Tiantian and Saren each hugged one of her arms and put their hands in her sleeves to keep warm.
Things made of this leather are particularly wind-resistant.
It was just that the clothes were very heavy, probably about five kilograms, and she was exhausted.
We finally arrived at Cuiyuan City, and two of my sisters-in-law had their lips turned purple from the cold.
Unlike the sisters-in-law who went straight to the supply and marketing cooperative, the three of them went to the state-owned restaurant as their first stop.
I have to eat something hot first and take a breath.
Fortunately, I caught the hot steamed buns fresh out of the pot.
What good luck.
You know, supplies are so tight now, steamed buns are not often available, it's good enough to have them once every ten days or half a month.
Especially since they came to the old town of Cuiyuan City, there was only one refractory factory.
The steel plant, the first and second machinery plants, and the metallurgical and mining machinery plant are not here.
You know, the supply is not enough.
Seizing the opportunity, Song Shuxi decisively took out her lunch box and ordered 2 kilograms of steamed buns.

When buying by the 2, she really made a mistake.
Song Shuqian explained to the waiter, "Comrade, we live far away, and it's not easy to come to the city. If you see it, just buy more. Anyway, it won't go bad in this weather.
I can bring it back home for my family to try. "
The waiter saw what she was wearing and guessed that she was a military wife from the neighborhood, and that was how they bought things.
This is how she installed it.
Tiantian followed suit. This thing is not easy to make. If you don’t want to cook, you can just heat it up and eat it.
In fact, it’s not that they are generous, it’s just that they have no place to use the tickets since they came here.
It’s not easy to get into the city.
Normally, the herders exchange things with the villagers. They don’t lack meat and don’t need meat tickets.
That saves a lot.
When the shaomai were served, Song Shuxi prepared a dish of vinegar and chili peppers, dipped them in water, and couldn't wait to put them in her mouth.
The mutton is tender and juicy, firm and elastic when you take a bite. The best thing is that the mutton here has no fishy smell.
The green onions neutralize the greasiness of the lamb. Before I knew it, I had eaten two taels.
Take another sip of tea and your stomach and body will be warmed up.
Saren and Tiantian also finished eating. The three of them got up and walked towards the supply and marketing cooperative.
This time, Song Shuxi and Tiantian planned to squeeze in with the aunts and sisters.
But they didn't stand a chance.
