I saw Sister Guihua and her mother talking in hushed tones, and the old lady looked somewhat embarrassed.
No one knows what Guihua's sister-in-law said, but the old lady's face darkened, and she turned and went into the house.
Ning Jing looked up at the sky and saw that there was still some time before noon.
"Sister Guihua, shall we go to town now?"
Today, only Wang Guihua's mother was home. Her father and several brothers had gone out to help others, and her sister-in-law was also away. The children, like Xiuhua and the others, went out early in the morning to dig for wild vegetables.
If she and Sister-in-law Guihua had stayed, Auntie would probably have had to cook for them.
Food is hard to come by for anyone these days, so Ning Jing acted quickly, buying and leaving immediately.
This way, my aunt's family won't have to spend any money.
Wang Guihua knew this principle, but it seemed a bit unreasonable for her not to eat after entering the house.
But now that she's married, it's not a good idea for her to decide on her own to keep guests.
In addition, she had just had a little argument with her mother, and considering the reason for their argument, it really wasn't a good idea for her to stay for dinner.
"Sister-in-law Guihua, you said yesterday that you would take me to town to buy some nice things."
It's a long walk to town, and with the return journey, if we don't go early, it'll be dark by the time we get home.
Ning Jing stepped forward and took Wang Guihua's arm, saying in a coquettish tone.
Upon hearing Ning Jing's response, Wang Guihua's face immediately showed a helpless expression, and she nodded in agreement.
"Okay, I'll go tell my mother."
"I'd also like to say goodbye to my aunt so she doesn't misunderstand anything."
Ning Jing quickly took over and went into the house with Wang Guihua.
When Guihua's mother heard this, she thought her daughter was angry with her, so she naturally refused and was so anxious that she almost jumped up and down.
In the end, they still couldn't keep the two people, and had no choice but to let them leave.
She knew that her family's conditions were limited. When guests came, she couldn't just eat sweet potatoes and potatoes like them. Although Aunt Zhang next door could hatch chicks, her family only raised two.
These two chickens are only raised to lay eggs in exchange for matches and needles; the family can't bear to eat them.
Adding to what Guihua just said, if her sister-in-law comes back, she'll definitely be furious with Guihua.
He let out a long sigh.
However, before leaving, Guihua's mother took a small handful of millet from the house and sprinkled it into Ningjing's basket.
Otherwise, the chicks might follow them around town and starve to death before they even get home.
Ning Jing and Wang Guihua took turns carrying the basket containing the chicks, treating the little chicks like precious treasures.
When Wang Guihua led her into the supply and marketing cooperative and pointed to the pile of white things at the bottom of the glass cabinet, Ning Jing felt a little dumbfounded.
This is... Gujin brand bra?
It's a famous domestic brand!
And what is that?
Wang Guihua glanced at Ning Jing like a thief, then had someone bring out a bra, stuffed it into Ning Jing's hand, and lowered her head, trying to pull her to pay.
Unexpectedly, Ning Jing pointed to a bundle of cloth-like things next to her chest and asked curiously.
Wang Guihua followed Ning Jing's finger and looked in the direction it pointed, her face flushing slightly. Then she whispered, "This is a menstrual belt. Is yours broken?"
"Menstrual belt?"
Ning Jing was stunned for a moment, and then sweat began to pour down her face.
She didn't seem to see anything similar in the original owner's tattered cabinet.
Luckily, she came to town with Sister Guihua this time; otherwise, if she really had her period, she would have been bleeding profusely.
But how do you use this menstrual belt?
