Chapter 86: Please ask for me, is there anyone in the village who wants me?
Zhou Wei's attention was immediately attracted. As Zhou Lin opened the outer paper box of one of the packages, the fruit inside was revealed!
Zhou Wei was instantly excited.
"Fruit!! It's actually fruit!!"
After saying that, she looked at Song Shiwei with sparkling eyes: "Mom, did you buy this for us?"
Song Shi smiled and nodded: "Yes, I bought it for you. Not only did I buy you fruits, I also bought your favorite things!"
"What?"
Now Zhou Wei was even more excited. Zhou Cheng smiled and opened another bag, revealing a bunch of colorful candies and white and blue packaging with a little rabbit printed on it. It was called White Rabbit Milk Candy!
"Wow!!! So much candy!!!"
Zhou Wei rushed over like crazy and hugged Candy in his arms!
He was so happy that he couldn't stop smiling.
Zhou Cheng and Zhou Lin couldn't help but cover their mouths and laugh.
"Look at you!"
Song Shiwei also laughed: "Although I bought you some candy, you can't eat too much every day, and you have to brush your teeth every morning and evening. Did you hear me?"
Zhou Cheng, Zhou Lin and Zhou Wei, who was grinning, nodded hurriedly.
Let the children eat the fruit here, and she took out the gloves and jelly cream for Sun Meimei from her bag and gave them to her.
When Sun Meimei saw her, she quickly grabbed her hand and said, "Weiwei, you're here! I was just about to look for you!"
Song Shi handed her the gloves with a smile: "Is it about the gloves? Don't worry, I didn't forget!"
As he said this, he also handed her the frostbite cream he had bought.
Sun Meimei smiled and waved her hands: "What are you thinking? I know you won't forget. I'm asking you, can you bring a few more cotton-padded clothes for me? Our old Zheng's family is poor, he has many brothers and sisters, and his parents are old. We have been away for so many years, and we have never done our best to show filial piety to the two old people. Isn't it Mid-Autumn Festival in a while? I want to buy a few more clothes and send them home!"
Seeing that she was still embarrassed, Song Shi smiled and took her hand: "What's the big deal? Just tell me if you need it! We are just friends! Don't worry, there are still a lot in the factory. We can't sell them all in a short time. I will bring you a few more next time I go!"
Sun Meimei was very happy when she heard this.
"Okay, okay, thank you for your help, Weiwei!"
"Well, what's the point of saying thank you or not between us?"
After returning from Sun Meimei's house, she was stopped by Jian Qiu and Wang Chunxiang as soon as she reached the door. They also asked her to help bring a few more cotton-padded clothes.
The main reason is that this cotton-padded jacket is really too cheap. Every family has a few relatives. You can look very generous if you take it home and give it to others as a gift.
Who can give you a cotton-padded jacket just by giving it away?
Besides, if you put this cotton coat on the counter, it would cost more than ten yuan! And you need cloth coupons!
But the batch that Song Shiwei got not only did not require cloth coupons, but also cost only five yuan each, and was thick and warm!
It is truly rare!
After everyone left, Song Shiwei took out the little notebook and did the math.
The sisters-in-law in the family compound alone asked for seventy-nine cotton coats!
She couldn’t bring back so many cotton-padded clothes by herself!
Fortunately, she had left the factory's phone number. After thinking about it, she decided to find Xiao Cui and ask her to ask the villagers if they wanted any. If there were more than a hundred pieces, she would ask Director Sun to find someone to transport them over.
She asked Zhou Cheng and Zhou Lin to look after her younger brothers and sisters, and she took a cotton coat and left the post to go to Gabei Village.
Today she made an agreement with Xiao Cui that she would not go to Ganhai, but to Qingshi.
So, at this moment Xiao Cui is writing with Xiao Jun in the yard.
Seeing Song Shiwei coming over, she was obviously surprised.
"Sister Weiwei, you're back?"
Xiaojun also quickly stood up and shouted with a smile: "Sister Weiwei!"
Song Shiwei hadn't been to their house for a while. Unexpectedly, their house had changed a lot after not seeing them for a while.
The last time I came, the whole yard was full of weeds, but this time it had been completely tidyed up, without even a single weed. There were even several vegetable plots near the wall.
At this time, they have all sprouted, and small tender shoots are emerging from the soil.
"Xiao Cui, did you plant all these?"
Xiao Cui nodded somewhat embarrassedly: "I'm sorry for embarrassing you last time. We are poor, and even if the yard is full of weeds, there are always a lot of wild vegetables mixed in. When we have no food to eat, we can dig these wild vegetables to eat!"
Xiaojun added: "But usually we don't have the heart to dig them, we always go to the back mountain to pick them, thinking that after these wild vegetables grow old, they will produce seeds and fall into the ground, so they can grow more next year!"
Song Shiwei nodded. No wonder he saw the yard full of weeds last time he came, and no one cared about it. Xiao Cui was a very diligent child, so she shouldn't have been left alone.
So that's the reason!
Xiao Cui pointed at the vegetable garden in the yard and smiled sweetly: "In the past, we had no money to buy seeds. We had no food to eat, and there was no labor force at home to work in the commune. So, I never dared to hope to buy seeds and grow vegetables myself!"
"All of this is thanks to you, Sister Weiwei! If it weren't for you, I'm afraid I wouldn't be able to earn so much money in my life! I wouldn't have money to buy medicine for my grandpa! My brother wouldn't be able to go to school!"
Hearing her words, Song Shiwei's eyes lit up: "Xiaojun went to school?"
Xiaojun chuckled and said, "My sister signed me up for the Red Star Primary School this morning, which is just a dozen miles away!"
After hearing this, Song Shiwei was really happy for the two siblings!
"Good, study hard! Xiaojun, you must study hard and try to get into a good university, then take your sister and grandma out of this island and see the outside world!"
Xiaojun's eyes welled up with tears when he heard this, and he nodded firmly.
"Sister Weiwei, don't worry, I will!"
Song Shiwei went back into the house to check on the two old people. Seeing that they were in better spirits and in much better health than before, he felt a lot more relieved.
Grandma Xiao Cui held her hand and cried tears streaming down her face.
If it weren't for her help, their family would not be able to live a good life.
We even ate meat these days.
This is something the old couple dared not even think about.
Grandma Xiao Cui also did not forget to remind her two children that they must be nice to Song Shiwei throughout their lives, otherwise they would be struck by lightning!
Xiao Cui cried and nodded: "Grandma, don't worry! My brother and I will never forget the kindness that Sister Weiwei has shown to our family!"
After coming out of the house, Song Shiwei explained his purpose to Xiao Cui.
"Xiao Cui, I got a batch of cheap cotton-padded clothes. The counters sell them for more than ten each. Now the clothing factory has a backlog of these stocks, so I'm selling them cheaply now, five yuan each! No receipt required! Can you help me ask if anyone in the village wants them?"
