After no one was around, Han Chen whispered, "The old man at the scrap yard got all the parts for his bicycle today. I didn't finish putting it together until three in the afternoon, so I missed the 1:30 bus."
"I was wondering why you were so late. I even went to the state-owned enterprise to buy some meat buns for you to eat when you came back. Are you hungry now? Although they are cold now, they taste good." After Xuemei said this, she took out an oil-paper bag from her schoolbag (a cross-body bag).
Han Chen parked his bicycle on the side of the road, took the oil paper package, opened it and found two meat buns inside. He took out one and handed it to Xuemei. Xuemei shook her head. Seeing that Xuemei didn't want to eat it, Han Chen didn't hesitate and started eating the bun directly.
Han Cheng was really hungry, so he ate two multi-grain steamed buns that the old man at the scrap yard brought him at noon.
After repairing the bicycle, I waited for the old man to check that there was no problem. I gave him the money and went to the post office to mail the item. I also went to the supply and marketing cooperative to buy some food and rushed to the bus station to catch a bus.
Seeing Han Chen eating so quickly, Xuemei knew he must have not eaten anything at noon. She took out another oil-paper package from her bag. It contained a few meat buns left for the family. She handed it to Han Chen and said, "Han Chen, eat slowly. There's more here!"
"Xuemei, that's not necessary. Take the rest back for Ruirui and the others. Qingya is on holiday today. I just need something to fill my stomach now!" Han Chen said after swallowing the last bite of the bun in his mouth.
Seeing that he refused to eat, Xuemei took the buns back, took out her water bottle from her schoolbag, handed it to Han Chen, and said, "Have some water? Don't choke. I've never drunk this water properly!"
Han Chen took the kettle, tilted his head back, poured a few sips of water and drank it, then said, "If you drink it, I won't despise you!"
Xuemei glanced at Han Chen and said, "I dislike you!" After saying that, Xuemei took the kettle from Han Chen's hand, covered it, and put it in her schoolbag.
Han Chen saw that he had made the other person angry again, so he quickly took out the money and tickets in his arms and handed them to Xuemei. Xuemei took them and looked at them. There were more than 40 yuan, half a pound of sugar tickets and two pounds of grain tickets.
"You don't have much money on you, right? I'll give you thirty to save, and you can use the rest of the money and bills for your daily use." Xuemei counted three big black bills and kept them for herself, then handed the rest of the money and bills to Xuemei.
Han Chen took it and said, "I also bought some food for you and your uncle. You can take it home later. You guys worked hard cleaning up last night. You sent so many things to my uncle and his family!"
"It's okay. Although there are a lot of things, they are not worth much money. I hope your uncle and his family like them!" Xuemei replied.
"They will definitely like it. Although their family is not short of money and tickets compared to ordinary people, the supply in the city is limited every month. I wonder how happy they will be when they see the things you sent them!" Han Chen said seriously.
Xuemei was also happy when Han Chen said they liked it. She said, "As long as your uncle and his family like it, we didn't prepare anything else. You don't have to buy anything for my family just for this."
"No, I have to behave well in front of your family. Xuemei, there's no one here, can I take you there on my bike?" Han Chen asked.
Xuemei looked around and saw that no one was walking towards this side, so she took Han Chen's backpack. As soon as Han Chen stepped on the bicycle, she ran over and sat on the back seat. Xuemei didn't dare to hold on to Han Chen, so she could only hold on to the back seat of the bicycle with both hands behind her back.
When they arrived at Liu's house, Han Chen pushed the bicycle into the yard for Xuemei, left a pound of White Rabbit milk candy and a box of mung bean cake for Xuemei, and went to the kitchen to say hello to Liu's father and mother before returning to the educated youth institute.
In the evening, Xuemei went to Liu's father and mother's room and told them about Shengnan and Zhou Bing, asking them to think of a way to help Shengnan.
The next day, Xuemei arrived at the supply and marketing cooperative, and her colleagues surrounded her and teased her. Most of them sincerely wished her well in finding a partner. However, some, because Xuemei had rejected their introductions before, accused her of being picky and ungrateful, and that she had finally settled on a gigolo.
Xuemei didn't want to explain to these people. She said that she just liked good-looking people. Looking at a good-looking face every day would not be enough for her to eat. She also deliberately said that after they got married, they would live in the village. Han Chen was a tractor driver and could support himself.
I can see my parents every day, and without my parents-in-law to control me, I don't know how happy my life will be.
