Ning Qingyuan put on his backpack and greeted Wu Sanqian with a smile that showed his dimples.
"Wu Ge, we still want to go shopping in the department store, so we won't bother you any more."
Ning Xiyue greeted the aunt in the room: "Aunt Qiuya, we're leaving first. We'll talk next time."
Wu Sanqian patted Ning Qingyuan on the shoulder and said, "Next time you come to the city and want any special goods, you can come to me, Brother Wu. I will keep them for you."
Aunt Qiuya took Ning Xiyue's hand and said lovingly, "Next time you come to the city, you must come and play with me. I like you so much. You are smart and lovable."
"Okay, sure." The brother and sister said in unison.
The two siblings said goodbye to the textile factory amid the warmth of Aunt Qiuya and her son.
"Little sister, put the seafood in my backpack and I'll tie it up with a rope."
"No, I can still carry such a small weight. Your backpack is too heavy with so many books and meat. Don't let it shorten my tall brother."
Ning Xiyue said with a hint of sarcasm, while also looking at his height.
Ning Qingyuan saw her carrying the bag on her shoulders effortlessly, as if it were a bag of cotton, so he didn't force her to take all the things back and carry them himself. He even joked with Ning Xiyue about this topic.
"How can it possibly make you shorter? This little thing won't make your brother shorter. I'm actually worried about you being shorter. You're the shortest in our family."
Ning Xiyue didn't care at all. She was very satisfied with her current height. She shook her hair proudly and said, "I'm still young and growing taller. Don't worry, my current height is enough."
"Okay, that's enough." Ning Qingyuan smiled indulgently: "Little sister, are you still going to the department store?"
Ning Xiyue shook her head: "No, it's not convenient for us to buy so many things. Besides, we don't have much else to buy. We have enough meat and most of the other New Year's goods. We don't lack anything anymore. You can go to town tomorrow to buy those small things for firecrackers."
She looked at the time and it was almost four o'clock.
"Let's walk slowly towards the city hall now. There's no need to rush. By the time we get there, it will be almost time."
I am already very satisfied today. There is no way I can show off with a lot of goodies on my back. It is easy to get into trouble.
Ning Qingyuan also glanced at his watch: "Okay, I'll listen to you. Let's go directly to the city government."
After leaving the gate of the textile factory's family compound, the two siblings went straight to the place they had agreed to meet with Bai Yu and his wife. They chatted as they walked, and at 4:30 they arrived at the place where they got off the bus in the morning.
The two siblings simply sat on the side of the road, took out two exercise books they bought today and started doing the exercises. Twenty minutes later, at 4:50, Bai Yu and his wife came out of the city government.
Seeing the two squatting on the side of the road, he was quite surprised. He opened the car door and got out: "How long have you two been waiting here? Come on, get in the car."
"Not long. I'm tired of walking around. Let me sit for a while."
Ning Xiyue brushed the dust off her butt, put the bricks on the ground into her bag, put the book in her hand in it, looked at Bai Yu and smiled, "Maybe I need to trouble you to open the trunk so we can put some things in."
Bai Yu nodded, signaled to the driver in front, and then helped Ning Xiyue carry the sack: "It's such a big bag, I'll help you carry it."
Ning Xiyue shook her head; "It's not heavy, it's just that the things inside take up space."
Bai Yu helped lift it up and felt the weight, and said in surprise: "Hey, it's not heavy at all. What New Year's goods did you buy here? It looks like a lot."
Although it was not heavy, Bai Yu still did not put it down. The two of them still carried the sack of seafood together and put it in the car.
"We bought some dry goods, so they're not heavy." Ning Xiyue said it briefly. There were many people around here, so she didn't say much.
On this side, Zhou Cheng also got out of the car to help Ning Qingyuan carry the things in the backpack. He moved the things in the trunk and put the backpack upside down on the car before loading it.
The trunk was originally filled with some New Year's goods that Zhou Cheng had bought. Once the two siblings put their things in, the trunk was immediately filled to the brim, leaving no space at all.
After putting their things away, the four of them got back into the car, which started and began its return journey towards the Daliu Team.
In the car.
Bai Yu was curious about everything the two siblings did in the city today. Seeing that they had bought so many New Year's goods, she was very curious: "How was it? Did you enjoy shopping today? Did you buy all the New Year's goods?"
Ning Xiyue was grateful to Bai Yu and his wife today, so she answered every question they asked, and couldn't help but smile while speaking.
"It's OK. We're all very happy. You can see that our backpacks are full, so you know we've prepared enough New Year's goods. Thank you both for bringing us to the city. It's quite lively here. How about you? Have you done your business?"
"It's done. Your brother Zhou has also bought the New Year's goods." Bai Yu said happily, licking her lips. She looked at Ning Xiyue with a hint of caution and tentatively extended an invitation to her: "Tomorrow is New Year's Eve, a day for family reunion. How about the four of us have dinner together?"
