Qin Qingman is not as weak as the original owner. She even dealt with Zhu Hongxia and others who harmed the original owner. How could she let go of Uncle Wan Mingxi's family? This family is not a good group of people either.
"Chu Chu, did your uncle move?"
Qin Qingman asked this because she vaguely remembered such an incident, but she didn't seem to remember it clearly.
"Yes, they moved. After my cousin was transferred to Hongqi Farm, they moved to the family area of Hongqi Farm. It is said that it was to find a good man for my cousin to marry." Chuchu is indeed well-informed about gossip. There is nothing he doesn't know.
Qin Qingman was a little confused when she heard this, "Wan Liang has only been working for a little over a year and he's already been allocated a house on the farm?"
"No, my cousin only got a single room and still lives with others."
Chuchu seemed very excited when talking about his uncle's family, but no one knew what he was excited about. Anyway, Qin Qingman didn't see how much respect the child had for this so-called uncle's family.
"Then how did my uncle and his family get into the farm family area?"
Qin Qingman was really curious about Wan Mingxi's abilities.
In those days, all industries were state-owned and labor was divided according to household registration. Wan Mingxi's family was not registered on the farm, so how could they live on the farm, unless they also had jobs on the farm?
"Didn't my aunt shamelessly ask my mother to teach her how to cook? My mother was kind-hearted and taught her a little. Now, with her cooking skills, her whole family has been hired by the big canteen at Hongqi Farm, and my uncle seems to be in charge of purchasing." Chuchu could hear his disdain for her aunt Xu Lianhua in his words.
Qin Qingman remembered this incident as soon as she heard it.
The original owner's mother died a long time ago because this weird aunt came to help take care of Chuchu during her confinement period after giving birth.
Originally, caring for others is a good thing and a form of friendship.
It turns out that there is no one in the world without selfish desires. Xu Lianhua came to please the original owner's mother deliberately because she was eyeing her cooking skills.
During the confinement period, one should not work too much and should have a good rest. However, Xu Lianhua found ways to trick the original owner's mother into teaching her how to cook. She pestered her 24 hours a day, causing her mother to have a splitting headache.
Also, seeing that her sister-in-law from her natal family came to take care of her during the confinement period, she taught Xu Lianhua how to cook.
With the sincere teaching of the original owner's mother, Xu Lianhua's cooking skills are not amazing, but they have improved a lot. The dishes she makes are much better than before. Occasionally, one or two dishes are even better than those in the state-owned hotel in town.
My uncle's family was satisfied, but the original owner's mother suffered a lot.
I didn't take good care of myself during the confinement period and developed a lot of health problems. As soon as I was done with the confinement period, I rushed to the brigade to work and earn work points.
There were two children in the family, and they had to take care of their parents-in-law. How could the few work points earned by the original owner's father feed so many mouths? As a result, Chuchu became seriously ill. She started to fall ill at the age of three and was so sick that she couldn't get out of bed. She passed away within a year.
Qin Qingman's face became even colder when she thought of this.
It turns out that this uncle's family did not only harm the original owner's mother. The original owner's father could not accept the death of the original owner's mother. One day, he drank a little too much and slipped into the river and drowned.
The reason why their Qin family fell into poverty was because of their uncle's family.
"Chu Chu, let's go see uncle tomorrow." Qin Qingman couldn't eat any more when she looked at the food in front of her. Since she had taken over this body, she possessed the joy, sorrow, and anger of this body. Her soul could empathize with this body.
"Sister, are we really going to celebrate uncle's birthday tomorrow?"
Chu Chu, who was lying on the edge of the kang, glanced at Qin Qingman cautiously. No matter how he looked at her, he felt that there was a murderous look on his sister's face.
Qin Qingman knew very well that the child was peeking. She glared at the child and said unhappily, "What do you think?" Don't think that she couldn't hear that the child said these words to her on purpose today. It was probably because she saw that Wei Ling was added to the family, and the siblings had someone to rely on, so they wanted to go and embarrass their uncle's family, so they deliberately said these words to her just now.
"hey-hey--"
Chu Chu saw that her little trick was discovered by Qin Qingman, so she quickly pretended to be stupid.
He has such a powerful brother-in-law, why shouldn't he show off? He just looks down on his uncle's family, who have become wealthy thanks to their family. Not only did they not help his family when it was in trouble, they also calculated his sister's work targets. Otherwise, his sister would have had a stable job long ago.
Chuchu has a lot of resentment towards her uncle's family.
Last year, he saw with his own eyes how his sister bent her back to earn work points.
"Sister, I'm sorry." Chu Chu knew that her little thoughts could not escape her sister's eyes, so she simply admitted her mistake generously.
"You're not sorry to me, I was negligent. As the younger generation, we should go to celebrate uncle's birthday." Qin Qingman walked to the head of the kang and touched the child's head, then collected the dishes and went to the living room to wash them.
In the west room, Chuchu saw that Qin Qingman was not angry, and immediately rolled over on the kang excitedly.
Even though his whole body was still sore, he was happy.
At this time, the child is already thinking about what to wear tomorrow and what nice clothes to wear to slap his uncle's family in the face.
The next day, Qin Qingman got up at dawn. Not only did she get up, she also dragged Chuchu, who was still entangled in the quilt, up.
Today was a nice day. Yesterday she had deliberately taken advantage of the good weather to take a walk around the village, just to see whose family was going to the town today so that she and Chuchu could take a ride. As the New Year was approaching, Auntie Ayun's family was busy preparing for the wedding of their child, and they happened to be going to the supply and marketing cooperative in the town to buy things, so they warmly invited Qin Qingman to go with them.
So Qin Qingman got up and packed up as soon as the sun rose today.
Although the town is not far from Kaoshantun, she still plans to have breakfast at home before going out.
To be honest, the food in the state-owned hotel in town was not even half as good as what she cooked, so why should she waste money on something unnecessary?
Chu Chu was not fully conscious when Qin Qingman dug her out from under the quilt.
If the biological clock was followed as before, when Qin Qingman got up, the child would also have slept enough and could get up. But now it is different. Ever since Wei Ling arranged an exercise task for Chuchu, the child has insisted on completing it no matter how uncomfortable it is.
This exhaustion inevitably makes it difficult to get up in the morning.
"Chuchu, hurry up and get dressed. I've prepared breakfast. After we finish eating, we'll go to town with Auntie Ayun. Her family is using a bullock cart today, and Auntie Ayun agreed to take us to the Red Flag Farm."
Qin Qingman explained the situation while helping Chuchu put on her clothes.
She saw how the child exercised yesterday, and she also knew that the child was suddenly sleepy and had muscle soreness, so she helped him get dressed now.
"Sister, Auntie Ayun will take us to the Red Flag Farm?"
Chu Chu became completely sober because of Qin Qingman's words. Although Hongqi Farm was not far from the town, it was in completely opposite directions from Kaoshantun. It could be said that they were three points and one line. If no one sent them, they would have to walk a long way after arriving in the town before reaching Hongqi Farm.
"Yes, use the ox cart to take us to the farm gate." Qin Qingman patted Chuchu's butt, "Put on your clothes, wash up quickly, I'll go feed the geese." After that, she left the west room.
She and Chuchu are going out today, and they have to take care of the living things in the house.
"Got it, sis."
Chuchu answered and got off the bed to put on her shoes.
He put on his shoes and touched the sweater on his body. This sweater was very warm and was bought at the county supply and marketing cooperative. At that time, Qin Qingman and Wei Ling did not buy ready-made clothes for themselves, so they bought one for him, the youngest one.
The red sweater is fluffy and very warm.
Chuchu's delicate little hands touched her sweater tenderly before she happily went to wash up.
The breakfast Qin Qingman prepared today was very substantial, with big meat buns and two fried dishes. The brother and sister had a delicious meal and there was no empty space left in their stomachs after finishing.
"Chu Chu, pack some buns in your lunch box and take them with you. We'll be out for a whole day. If you get hungry, you can eat the buns." Qin Qingman went to pack the birthday gift for her uncle, and then reminded Chu Chu.
"Got it, sis."
Chuchu went to find a lunch box to put the buns in.
Wang Chengping had already asked someone to send back the lunch boxes that his family had used to deliver food to Wang Chengping and others. Now the children only had to find the lunch boxes and put the big buns in them.
The big lunch box is full with just three buns.
You can see how big the buns Qin Qingman makes are. They have thin skin and lots of fillings, and are extremely delicious. Even Chuchu, who is so small, can eat one.
The child had just closed the lid of the lunch box when he saw Qin Qingman coming out of the storage room carrying a wicker basket covered with a towel.
The things in the willow basket were covered by a towel, so Chuchu couldn't see what was inside. He asked curiously, "Sister, what did you take?" He was reluctant to give his family's meat and food to his uncle's family.
"See for yourself."
Qin Qingman put the willow basket on the ground and went to turn off the fire in the two stoves.
The fire should be sealed but not extinguished, so that the house can continue to be warm and their home will not be as cold as an ice cellar when they return home in the afternoon.
The coal-burning stove is sealed with moistened coal powder, and a few pieces of charcoal are added to the wood-burning stove in the hall, and then sealed with wood ash.
When I come back in the afternoon, I just need to stir it up and add some firewood to start it burning again.
While Qin Qingman was busy putting out the fires in the two stoves, Chuchu also opened the willow basket and looked at it.
A basket full of them!
If you only look at the amount without looking at the specific things, you might think that the gift Qin Qingman gave was very valuable, but Chu Chu grinned when she took a closer look.
They are all kinds of dried vegetables.
Eggplant, beans, radish...
Every year, every family would dry a lot of these things in summer and autumn and store them in order to eat them in winter.
How can I describe these dried vegetables? They are indeed expensive.
There is snow in the second half of the winter here. During the period of heavy snow and closed mountains, there are really few vegetables. People have to rely on dried vegetables, sauerkraut, and cabbage and radishes in the cellar to survive the long winter, and they cannot live without them every day.
But just because every household has them, these necessities can be said to be inexpensive.
The reason why Chuchu was laughing secretly was that her sister did not take any of the mountain products she picked, but only the dried vegetables. In comparison, mushroom mountain products were much more expensive than ordinary dried vegetables.
The child stuffed the big lunch box into the willow basket and covered it with the towel again with satisfaction.
"Sister, let's just give these to uncle for his birthday. They won't be angry, right?" Chuchu said this with a bit of schadenfreude in his voice. He just wanted to see his uncle's family angry. The angrier they were, the happier he would be.
Now that he has a brother-in-law, no one dares to bully them anymore.
At this time, Qin Qingman had already put out the fire. After hearing what Chuchu said, she thought for a moment, turned around and went back into the storage room, then took the Hericium erinaceus that Jiang Linshan's family had sent to their home and put it into the willow basket.
"sister!"
Chu Chu lost her composure the moment she saw the Hericium erinaceus clearly.
This thing is very rare. The little bit they have is given by their uncle. My sister and brother-in-law haven't eaten it yet. Why should they give it to my uncle's family? He is very unhappy.
I can't bear to do that.
"We have to let them see the benefits." Qin Qingman had her own calculations.
Chu Chu puffed up his cheeks, but he didn't dare to disobey Qin Qingman's wishes, so he could only look at Liu Kuang sulking.
"Chu Chu, let's go. Come, put on your coat quickly. It's cold outside. Wrap yourself tightly and warmly." Qin Qingman, who was carrying a willow basket at the door, greeted the child and put on her cotton coat at the same time.
This military coat was not left by Wei Ling, but by the original owner and his wife.
The original owner's father had worn it for many years, and the fabric had long been washed to the point of being whitened by hair. The fabric no longer had much toughness, and it would be easily torn if one was not careful. It had no aesthetic appeal at all when worn on the body.
Chu Chu, who was originally sulking, widened her eyes when she saw the military coat on Qin Qingman.
His sister has a new cotton-padded jacket, which she got from her second aunt’s house!
"What are you looking at? Put on your clothes quickly." Qin Qingman knew what Chuchu meant by that expression, but she didn't explain. Instead, she took Chuchu's cotton coat and put it on the child.
Chu Chu was even more confused when she saw the cotton coat she was about to put on.
This was the cotton-padded jacket he was about to throw away. The patches on it were so thick that you couldn't even see the original pattern of the jacket.
"Sister...sister..." The child looked at Qin Qingman and stammered.
His little brain didn't understand what was going on. Aren't they going out today to show off to their uncle's family? Why were they wearing such shabby clothes? How could they show off their family's lifestyle by wearing such shabby clothes?
"Is your uncle's family short of food now?"
Qin Qingman asked as she dressed the child.
Chu Chu thought about it seriously and shook her head affirmatively, "No shortage." Her uncle's family all went to the canteen of Hongqi Farm. There were thousands of people in Hongqi Farm. How could a canteen that could accommodate so many people be short of food for her uncle's family?
Maybe they have already become fat and big by now!
Qin Qingman, who had dressed the child in cotton clothes, took Chuchu's hat and put it on the child, and said helplessly, "They have enough food and definitely enough clothes. Even if they know that our family is doing well, there is no need for them to envy us, because they already have nothing to ask of us."
"Then...then we won't go."
Chu Chu was dumbfounded.
"We still have to go. My uncle's family can have enough food and clothes now, all thanks to my mother's cooking skills. Shouldn't we go and help my mother collect some apprenticeship fees? If we don't wear shabby clothes, how can they look down on us?" Qin Qingman didn't really want to say this to the child, after all, the child was still too young.
But she could see that Chuchu was very smart, and such a smart child could not be educated in the same way as a normal child.
Chu Chu's eyes immediately lit up when she heard Qin Qingman's explanation.
The bulging cheeks disappeared, a smile appeared on his face, and he even took the initiative to put on his earmuffs and gloves.
"Not angry anymore?"
Qin Qingman smiled and poked the child's face gently with her finger.
After this period of good food and drink, the child has gained some flesh on his face. Not only are his cheeks fuller, but they have also grown a little, and his facial features have become better looking.
"Sister, I'm not angry."
Chuchu held Qin Qingman's hand and acted coquettishly. How could he admit that he was angry for the wrong reason?
"Yeah, you're not angry, but your cheeks are puffed up like a pufferfish."
Qin Qingman smiled sweetly as she went out carrying the willow basket.
Chuchu's attention was immediately diverted, "Sister, what is pufferfish?"
"Pufferfish!"
Qin Qingman locked the door while answering, "Pufferfish are a type of fish. When they are angry or hurt, they puff up their gills and roll themselves up into a ball, so they can escape danger."
"Wow, this fish is so smart." Chu Chu admired the puffer fish.
"Yes, I also think our Chuchu is very smart." Qin Qingman locked the door and walked towards the gate of the courtyard with a willow basket in one hand and the child's hand in the other. They had to meet Auntie Ayun at the entrance of the village.
It seemed like there were more than just the siblings taking the ride to town.
"Sister, I also think I'm super smart." Chuchu's words revealed absolute confidence, and she even added cleverly, "Sister and brother-in-law are also smart, I am the third smartest."
"Then who is the smartest?" Qin Qingman deliberately teased the child.
"Sister, my sister is the smartest." Chu Chu learned how to coax girls without any instruction.
Qin Qingman was talking to Chuchu in a very good mood. The village had been windy for more than a day and was covered with ice. The scenery was beautiful, but the ground was slippery and difficult to walk on. In order to avoid falling, the brother and sister walked very slowly and carefully.
Just after I went out, I met a team in the village who were clearing ice and snow from the road.
We are all from the same village, so we must say hello to each other.
Qin Qingman and her brother saw Qin Jianming and his brother and Liu Sangunzi in the crowd. After getting up early every day to sweep the snow for a period of time, these three people were in a very depressed mental state. They looked even more miserable than Chuchu who had just started exercising.
When Qin Jianming and his companions saw Qin Qingman and her brother, they not only did not dare to say hello, but instead hunched their backs and lowered their heads, pretending not to see them.
They didn't want to say hello to Qin Qingman, and Qin Qingman didn't want to pay attention to these three people.
Qin Qingman said hello to a few familiar villagers and continued walking towards the entrance of the village. The time to meet Auntie Ayun and Ziyue was almost up, so she had to hurry.
After Qin Qingman and her brother walked away, Qin Jianjun muttered something in a low voice.
"You must be trying to deceive people by dressing like this!"
His family was the first to be deceived by Qin Qingman. He didn't realize it at the beginning, but now that he has to do tiring and hard work every day, he realized that they were all deceived by Qin Qingman's appearance.
Qin Qingman is not weak and can be bullied at all. She is obviously very powerful.
But he just figured it out now. Unfortunately, it's too late. Whenever he thought about the possibility that the three of them might be sent to pick up dung after the spring, Qin Jianjun felt particularly sad and regretful.
I really regret it.
Qin Jianjun regretted his past behavior. Qin Jianming and Liu Sangunzi also heard Qin Jianjun's muttering. Although they did not respond out loud, they both nodded heavily with a sense of sympathy.
Qin Qingman is definitely not that simple.
Otherwise they wouldn't have suffered such a huge loss.
"She married a military officer. I heard that military officers are high-ranking and rich. My mother said that the betrothal gift was three taels of silver and one gong. There were also countless fabrics and daily necessities. At that time, they filled up half of the yard. I don't believe that she was so poor that she couldn't afford clothes."
Probably because he was really unhappy, Qin Jianming couldn't help but mutter something behind the people in the village.
"My sister has already been wearing the new cotton-padded jacket that my mother made for her. It is brand new. My mother planned to give it to my sister as a wedding dress."
Qin Jianjun added another sentence.
This sentence also points out the source of Qin Caiyun's hatred for Qin Qingman.
Cloth coupons in that era were really too expensive. It took too much money to make a new piece of clothing from buying the cloth to making the clothing. It would be strange if you didn't feel hatred and resentment when your future wedding dress was worn by someone else.
Qin Caiyun hated Zhu Hongxia for compensating Qin Qingman with clothes, and also hated Qin Qingman for taking the clothes.
If Qin Qingman doesn't want the clothes, then does that piece of clothes still belong to her?
Therefore, Qin Caiyun had hated Qin Qingman to the core, and this grudge was also involved when she snatched Liu Hechang.
Liu Sangunzi certainly heard the Qin brothers' mumblings clearly.
He carefully looked around and saw that no one else noticed the three of them. He quickly shoveled the ice and snow on the ground and whispered, "I heard from others that they didn't see the bicycle and watch, right?"
He didn't care who Qin Qingman and her brother were plotting against by dressing like that; he cared about the betrothal gift Wei Ling gave to Qin Qingman.
Liu Sangunzi is 32 years old this year. His children who are the same age as him are now in their teens, but he is still single.
A bachelor also wants a wife, children and a warm bed.
"There was no bicycle or watch in the betrothal gift that day, but I heard that they are going to build a house in the spring of next year, and they will provide bicycles and watches after the house is built." Qin Jianjun has his own gossip.
"It must cost a lot of money to buy so many things!"
Liu Sangunzi felt that he might never be able to find a wife in his lifetime.
His parents had passed away a long time ago, and he lived from day to day without saving any money. If marrying a wife really required such a large dowry, he couldn't afford it even if he sold his house.
"Three turns and one ring are not cheap. If you buy all of them, it will cost at least 900 to 1,000 yuan. And that's not even the hardest part. The hardest part is that you need a ticket. If you don't have a ticket, you can't buy it even if you have money."
Qin Jianjun's tone contained not only envy but also sourness.
If Qin Qingman still recognized their family, they would have been able to get some benefits, instead of the current situation where he doesn't even dare to call Qin Qingman.
It's his mother's fault.
His mother is too stubborn. Isn't it just about giving gifts and apologizing to Qin Qingman and admitting her fault? She won't suffer any loss and it won't cost her a lot of money, so why not apologize? Look at the aunt and the third and fourth aunts. They just said a word of apology, but the cousin not only recognized them as her own family, but also gave them meat to eat.
The more Qin Jianjun thought about it, the more resentful he became towards Zhu Hongxia.
Liu Sangunzi was stunned by the value of Qin Jianjun's words.
It seems that he will never get married in this life.
But Liu Sangunzi, who had never enjoyed a woman, was unwilling to give up. He rolled his eyes and started to use crooked means, "Jianjun, is your sister's hair well?" Qin Caiyun's scalp was pecked by geese, which was a bit ugly, but if she put on a hat or turned off the lights, it would not affect her being a daughter-in-law.
Qin Jianjun was a man with a lot of thoughts to begin with, so he certainly understood what Liu Sangunzi meant as soon as he heard what he said.
Qin Jianjun looked at Liu Sangunzi with disdain and said, "It has nothing to do with you, so stop asking." Although he did not have much sisterly affection for Qin Caiyun, he also looked down on Liu Sangunzi, who was in his thirties and still had no food to eat.
He thinks it's cheap to have such a person as his brother-in-law.
Liu Sangunzi was so angry at Qin Jianjun's words that he almost died.
Oh, you are all thieves. How dare you look down on others? Don’t you see what kind of people you are?
Feeling dissatisfied, Liu Sangun shoveled the ice and snow on the ground vigorously. The sooner he finished, the earlier he could go home and warm himself by the fire. It was just their own time that was wasted by being lazy.
After all, everyone had their own area to shovel snow.
No one can take advantage of anyone else.
Liu San was shoveling snow here with a stick, and the Qin brothers also hurriedly stamped their feet and worked on the snow on the ground. Their tasks were also arranged, and they couldn't shirk their responsibilities.
Because there would be militia to check, and if they were found not shoveling snow according to the rules, they would be arrested and sent to the educated youth center to starve, face the wall and recite the Chairman's quotations.
The Qin Jianming brothers had previously done some clever tricks just to be lazy, but they were all discovered by the director of public security, Qian Xiangyang. They were then given a severe lesson and never dared to be clever again.
It was almost eleven o'clock before the snow and ice on the road in Kaoshantun was cleared.
After the shoveling was done and the inspection was passed, everyone hurried back to their homes. Qin Jianjun went to the kitchen as soon as he got home. Seeing Qin Caiyun cooking with her hat on, he said slowly, "Stay away from Liu Sangunzi in the future."
After saying this, he left without caring whether Qin Caiyun understood or not.
Qin Caiyun, who was cooking, was stunned and then her face turned dark.
She understood the implication of Qin Jianjun's words, that the old bachelor Liu Sangunzi might have taken a fancy to her and was planning to do some evil things with her.
Pooh!
Qin Caiyun was so angry that her face was gloomy but with a hint of red. She was furious that Liu Sangunzi dared to covet her, a virgin girl. Even if she had some problems, she was not someone a gangster like Liu Sangunzi could marry.
You don't even take a piss and look in the mirror. You can't even support yourself, and you still have daydreams every day!
Qin Caiyun was angry, but she also understood one thing: Zhu Hongxia was still lying in bed recuperating and still needed her care, so she still had value in this family. If one day her care was no longer needed, she would definitely be regarded as eating for free.
By then, maybe someone can really afford the bride price, and Zhu Hongxia will let her marry no matter who the other person is.
Whenever Qin Caiyun thought about Zhu Hongxia interfering in her life for the rest of her life, she realized the urgency of time.
No, we have to act quickly.
Qin Qingman had no idea that her passing by triggered a series of subsequent events. She and Chuchu arrived at the entrance of the village in a short while. As soon as they arrived at the entrance of the village, they saw the man from Aunt Ayun's family pulling a ox cart towards them.
The cattle belong to the brigade and are public property.
But in winter, villagers can take the cattle home to look after them, and get fodder from the brigade. The people who take care of the livestock must keep the cattle warm, and send the cattle back to the brigade in good health after the next spring.
Auntie Ayun's family is well off, and they bring a cow home to take care of in the winter. The advantage is that they can use the cow for the entire winter.
But raising cattle like this does not count as work points.
In the season when the mountains are blocked by heavy snow, having a cow to work with is more convenient than walking. In Kaoshan Village, in addition to Auntie Ayun's family who raised a cow, Zhang Hongmei's family also raised an animal for their own convenience.
"Auntie Ayun, uncle." Qin Qingman and her brother greeted Auntie Ayun and her husband when they saw them.
There were two other villagers at the entrance of the village waiting to ride Auntie Ayun's ox cart into the town. When they heard Qin Qingman and her brother calling them, they also greeted Auntie Ayun and her husband.
There weren't too many people, and the sled was big enough to fit just a few of us.
Chuchu was very small. After Qin Qingman got on the car, she immediately held the child in her arms and put the willow basket on the sled.
"Qingman girl, are you going to celebrate your uncle's birthday?"
Aunt Xiulan saw the willow basket carried by Qin Qingman before she got on the cart. She had been extremely curious about it. After getting on the cart, she took a special look into the basket. The towel covering it was no longer neat due to the bumpy ride of the ox cart, and a little bit of Hericium erinaceus was exposed.
Looking at the rare Hericium erinaceus, Aunt Xiulan couldn't help but ask a question.
At the same time, he looked in surprise at the not-so-nice cotton coats on Qin Qingman and her brother.
Everyone in the village knew what kind of life Qin Qingman's family was living now. Not to mention the enviable betrothal gifts given by Wei Ling, even the coal brought into the Qin family in the first two days made everyone realize that the Qin family today is no longer the same as it was in the past.
When the other people in the car heard what Aunt Xiulan said, their eyes were focused on Qin Qingman's willow basket.
Aunt Guiying was even more surprised and said, "Qingman, are you really going to celebrate your uncle's birthday?" She knew the Wan family very well, because she was going to Hongqi Farm to visit her daughter today. Her daughter married a farm worker, which has always been her pride.
Facing the curious gazes of several people, Qin Qingman really couldn't say that she went to slap her uncle's family in the face, so she could only lower her head and say: "When my mother was alive, she told us to get closer to my uncle's family. I only have this one uncle."
The original owner's mother did remind her so, otherwise, she wouldn't have bothered to teach Xu Lianhua cooking during her confinement period.
The two ladies, Xiulan and Guiying, looked at each other and didn't know what to say.
Recalling Qin Qingman's recent relationship with the other members of the Qin family, they looked at the clothes Qin Qingman and her brother were wearing, and had some guesses in their minds. They did not get involved and say anything that should not be said, but instead talked about other things.
The most talked about thing is hunting.
The Chinese New Year is less than a month away. If it’s too late to go up the mountain in good weather, every household may not be able to eat meat-filled dumplings this year.
The group was chatting animatedly about important matters concerning the New Year.
It was not windy today, so no one was afraid of the cold wind blowing into their stomachs. We chatted all the way to the town. After entering the town, Aunt Xiulan got off first.
Her youngest son works at the town's iron factory and is a state-funded worker. She came into the town today to bring some mountain products to her son, and also to bring some New Year's gifts back to the village, so she separated from everyone as soon as she entered the town.
"Dad, please send Sister Guiying and Qingman and his sister to the farm gate. I'm going to the supply and marketing cooperative to pick up some things first. Come find me later." Aunt Ayun gave her husband some instructions, said hello to Qin Qingman and Guiying, and got out of the car and entered the supply and marketing cooperative.
Her family is going to marry off a daughter next year, so they need to buy a lot of things and have to take their time to choose.
With two fewer people on the sled, the space became much wider, and Qin Qingman and Aunt Guiying chatted idly.
As for Chuchu, she had already fallen asleep in her arms.
Children exercise every day, which is very tiring. Sleeping is the fastest way to restore their energy.
It is very labor-saving to sled in the snow, and the ox doesn't have to exert any effort at all. With the sound of whips, we are getting closer and closer to the Red Flag Farm.
Chu Chu, who was sleeping, was startled by the sound of the whip thrown in the air and opened her eyes.
"Sister, where are we?" Chuchu was only very familiar with the three mu of land in Kaoshantun. He didn't know much about anything outside of Kaoshantun. In addition, he had not yet been to school and did not know the words "Hongqi Farm".
"arrive."
Following Qin Qingman's answer, the ox cart stopped and the gate of Hongqi Farm came into view.
Qin Qingman had the same luck as Huang Wanqing. She met Zhao Tiancheng and his group as soon as she got off the car.
This time, the one who stared at Qin Qingman with wide eyes was Wu Weimin.
The son of the director of Red Flag Farm.
