"Xiyue, look, we have changed to a 28-bar truck, and it's quite new. It will be convenient for us to go to the market in town in the future." Liu Yao patted the seat of the 28-bar truck with a happy face.
"Yes, it's good. It's much more convenient. You are so lucky." Ning Xiyue looked around the 28-bar bicycle. It looked very sturdy and could be ridden for more than ten years.
"This is a bicycle that Ye Chu and I own together." Liu Yao leaned in closer and lowered her voice, saying, "Ye Chu was lucky. He happened to come across it, and he didn't even ask for a ticket, so we teamed up and got this bicycle."
"That's really good luck. Bicycle tickets and industrial coupons are really hard to get." Ning Xiyue gave a thumbs up and praised: "This bike looks like a new one. It's worth it."
In fact, Ning Xiyue had some idea in her mind. Combined with Chen Yechu in the black market, she roughly knew how this car was obtained.
But she didn't expect that Chen Yechu was a bit cunning. In order to avoid attracting attention when returning to the team, he actually asked Liu Yao to buy the car together. This way, the risks and pressures could be shared. If someone annoying wanted to borrow the car in the future and didn't want to lend it to him, he could push it to another person, and the two of them could fool around.
"Congratulations on winning a 28-barrel truck." Ning Xiyue bowed and congratulated.
Chen Yechu smiled and said, "It's just a coincidence. Xiyue, if you want to use a bicycle in the future, just come and borrow it from us."
Liu Yao nodded hurriedly: "Yes, Xiyue, we can lend it to you."
"Thank you in advance. I'll ask my family if they have bicycle tickets or extra industrial coupons. I'll find a chance to buy one."
Ning Xiyue remembered that there was a bicycle in her three-piece suit. She would wait and see when she found a suitable opportunity to use it, so she laid the groundwork today.
Wang Mengmeng was watching with envy, twisting the corners of her clothes with her fingers. She envied Liu Yao for being dragged into buying a bicycle together by Chen Yetu, and she also envied Ning Xiyue for being offered to lend her a bicycle by these two people.
When could she get along so well with them?
She had been hanging around Xia Zhipeng before, but she didn't expect to miss so many new friends.
Wang Mengmeng regretted for a moment why she was so stupid as to hang around a man who didn't like her and was not clean. She was really blind. Her mother was right to scold her. She had to find a chance to write a letter to her mother to talk about it.
Ning Xiyue had already seen Wang Mengmeng standing shyly aside, not saying a word. She didn't realize that after being cured of her love-brain problem, she had become reserved and shy.
Seeing her alone with an emo look and a somewhat pitiful expression, Ning Xiyue, who had no sympathy, glanced at her and then looked away.
But Wang Mengmeng was good at seizing opportunities. Seeing Ning Xiyue looking away, she took it as a signal and happily walked over to her. She pulled out a few large, red hawthorns from her bag and said, "I bought some hawthorns at the agricultural and sideline product purchasing station. They're sour and sweet and pretty good. Would you like to try one?"
Under Wang Mengmeng's eager gaze, Liu Yao took the lead in picking up a hawthorn.
Wang Mengmeng saw Liu Yao took it, and happily distributed the hawthorns in her hand to Ning Xiyue, Chen Yechu and Yu Zhiyu who was silently carrying things for them.
"hiss-"
As soon as Ning Xiyue took a bite, the hawthorn in her hand was so sour that it hurt her teeth.
“It tastes good, doesn’t it?”
When Wang Mengmeng turned around and looked at Ning Xiyue, she put away the painful expression on her face, forced a smile and nodded.
"It's quite appetizing and suitable for eating before meals. It would be perfect if it were a little sweeter."
As soon as he turned around, his face looked sour and he swallowed the hawthorn in his mouth with great difficulty.
If she had known she was going to give her sour hawthorns that would make your teeth fall out, she wouldn't have asked.
"Yeah, I think it's good too. I haven't eaten it before." Wang Mengmeng took out a hawthorn, wiped it on the cloth bag and stuffed it into her mouth. She finished it in two bites.
Others said against their will: "Not bad."
Judging from the expressions of the people present, Wang Mengmeng really thought it was delicious. Like her, everyone else was delighted by the sourness of the hawthorn.
Since Wang Mengmeng loves sour food so much, there must be someone from northern Shaanxi in her family.
Wang Mengmeng was a little excited to join in, and enthusiastically held out her bag: "One more?"
"No, I remembered that I still have to go to the place where I pay my taxes to meet up with the aunts. You go back first, I'll go over." Ning Xiyue turned and left, unable to resist Wang Mengmeng's enthusiasm.
"Hey, Xiyue—" Liu Yao shouted at the disloyal Ning Xiyue.
Ning Xiyue raised her hands high in greeting without even turning her head.
It's better to die with a friend of virtue than with a friend of poverty. Just kidding. Who would want to stay there and eat sour hawthorns that would make your teeth fall out? Her teeth are still chattering. It's obvious that those hawthorns were collected by the recycling station and given to the hospital for use as medicine. They are so sour that they can kill you.
Feeling the sour taste lingering in her mouth, Ning Xiyue took out a piece of fruit candy to sweeten her mouth, and then she suppressed the sour taste, and the expression on her face became relaxed again.
“This is what I should eat.”
When we arrived at the grain payment site, there were still crowds of people, and more and more teams carrying grain were waiting behind.
Ning Xiyue arrived at the right time. Their Daliu team was the first one to start inspecting and grading the food.
The team leader and other people in the team held their breath waiting for the judgment results.
"Da Liu Team, first-class public grain, quality: excellent."
This statement made everyone in the team happy, with joyful smiles on their faces.
"Ah, Xiyue, our team's first-class public grain, excellent quality, awesome, hahahaha."
Wu Guifang jumped up with joy and pulled Ning Xiyue around in circles. If you didn’t know her, you would think she was the leader of the team.
Aunt Yang Liu smiled easily: "Now I can finally rest assured. I don't have to redo the work."
"Yes, fortunately our hard work these days has not been in vain."
