An'an wears diapers at night and cloth diapers during the day.
She had just fed An'an when the little one pooped.
"You naughty boy." Ran Jinnian had no choice but to change his diaper again.
After Ran Jinnian finished, she took An'an to the military region's communications office so she could call her family.
Today is Saturday, and her mother is off work.
She can call the phone booth in town.
Communications Department.
Ran Jinnian took out her family member ID card and handed it to the operator: "Hello, I'd like to call my family."
"Where are you calling?" The operator checked the family member's ID and found it to be correct.
Ran Jinnian gave the detailed address: "A telephone booth in Pubing Town, Tonglin County, Henan Province."
The operator spent a long time looking up the phone number for the phone booth in Pubing Town, and then transferred the call to several numbers before finally getting through.
The call was answered after a while; the other end was the operator at the phone booth in Puping Town.
"Hello."
"Hello, I'm looking for Wang Xiumei, apartment 2-17, building 3, in the west section of the steel plant's dormitory building." Ran Jinnian had to give her the address again; making phone calls these days was so troublesome.
The operator took a note: "Wait a moment, I'll go and notify them."
After hanging up the phone, the other party rode his bicycle to go and notify them.
Few people make phone calls now because phone bills are too expensive, so call center operators have a very easy job, which can be considered a secure job.
This kind of notification to come to the phone booth to answer the phone only happens once or twice a month.
The operator rode her bicycle to the tenement building, stood downstairs and started shouting, "Wang Xiumei, Wang Xiumei."
Wang Xiumei is off today. She is thinking of visiting her daughter and grandson in two months and plans to make some clothes for her grandson.
She had just gone downstairs to buy fabric at the supply and marketing cooperative when she heard someone calling her.
"I am Wang Xiumei." Wang Xiumei recognized the other person's uniform at a glance and immediately ran over.
The operator said, "There's a call coming from the Southern Military Region. Could you answer it?"
As soon as Wang Xiumei heard that it was a call from the Southern Military Region, she immediately knew it was her daughter calling: "Okay, okay, I'm coming right now."
The operator notified the person and then rode off on her bicycle.
Wang Xiumei thought it was her daughter calling, and worried that something might have happened to her, so she walked very fast.
She arrived in just a few minutes what should have been a ten-minute walk.
"Please wait a moment." The operator had already arrived and was slowly drinking water from her cup.
Wang Xiumei said, "I'll call."
"That's fine too."
The operator paused for a moment, as most people are reluctant to spend the phone bill and wait, and very few people take the initiative to call.
The operator spent quite a while looking up the phone number for the Southern Military Region, and after several transfers, finally got through.
"I am Wang Xiumei, and I am looking for Ran Jinnian."
Wang Xiumei knew that phone calls were expensive, so she focused on the important points.
"Ran Jinnian."
The operator from the Southern Military Region called out.
Ran Jinnian didn't realize that it would take her mother more than ten minutes to walk from home to the phone booth.
She planned to call back later, but the phone rang unexpectedly.
Ran Jinnian quickly stepped forward and took the phone: "Mom."
"Daughter, what happened that you called me?" Wang Xiumei's eyes reddened as soon as she heard her daughter's voice.
My daughter has been gone for almost half a year; we've never been apart for so long before.
"Mom, I'm fine."
Ran Jinnian's eyes reddened slightly when she heard her mother's voice.
Wang Xiumei was worried about her daughter, but when she heard her daughter's words, she became furious: "You spendthrift daughter, why are you calling me for no reason? Do you think your money grows on trees?"
Ran Jinnian's longing surged: "Mom, I miss you."
"Don't call unless it's important. Your mother-in-law and I will come to see you in two months."
Snap!
Wang Xiumei hung up the phone immediately, continuing to curse and swear.
