Chapter 71
After distributing the gifts, Chen Qingyi returned home, but her family members were still working in the fields. However, they had already processed the pig.
Place them in a bowl in strips.
The chickens were also kept in cages.
Chen Qingyi poured everything in the sack onto the kang.
Looking at the good stuff that took up half of the kang, Chen Qingyi smiled with satisfaction.
Today she is special!!!
The sack is deliberately placed there for people to see.
She doesn't like gossip, nor does she like some people who think they are kind.
Seeing her mother and the others was like seeing poor little things.
It seems that living a miserable life and being in poverty is their inevitable destination.
She wanted everyone to know that without Chen Changbo, they were not living a hard life.
But it is a fairy-tale life that no one envies.
They will be better than before!
The things were not put away and were just piled up on the kang. When I got off work in the evening, I saw a mountain of good things.
Zhao Xiangmei and the others were completely dumbfounded.
Chen Qingfeng rushed forward in disbelief, "Sister, did you buy all these?"
"Ah." Chen Qingyi raised her delicate little chin proudly, "I've made a lot of money selling mountain products recently.
Several hundred!
I happened to go to the commune today, so I went to the black market to take a look. Wow, the black market is very lively today.
There are so many good new things.
So could I miss it?
We have money, so we can't do that. I almost bought everything, and a few ladies almost got into a fight with me.
But who can blame me for my quick eyes and quick hands!
Mom, look at this whole piece of Dacron cloth, this blue plaid pattern.
If you make a shirt and wear it, it will look really good and make you look whiter!
And this piece of wine red corduroy, look how cool it is, and the price is not expensive.
An old lady was crying because she didn’t get anything, and I refused to sell it to her even if she offered me more money.
Mom, make yourself a coat that will last you all year long.
And these two quilts..."
Chen Qingyi took it out from the pile of things, unfolded it, and each of her brothers pulled out a corner.
Let Zhao Xiangmei see more clearly.
"Mom, look at the patterns on these two quilts, they're bright red.
It’s prettier and brighter than the one my grandma bought.
Mom, reach out and touch it again, it feels so good."
Zhao Xiangmei rubbed her hands on the clothes and touched them gently.
I’m afraid that the calluses on my hands will be scraped out.
He nodded repeatedly: "It looks good, it looks good, this must be very expensive, right?"
"It's not expensive, it's not expensive, only fourteen dollars."
"That's really not expensive." Even at the supply and marketing cooperative, cloth coupons cost more than eleven yuan. Zhao Xiangmei touched it again curiously.
"Mom, here's something else. Look at this pair of bright red pillowcases. They're two dollars a pair.
And this white cotton cloth was only 32 cents a foot, and I bought a whole foot!
It's very comfortable to make vests and pants, and it can also be used to make shirts, and this piece of cloth..."
She turned out another piece from the bottom.
The dark blue ones are enough for each of Chen Qingsong and his three brothers to make a set.
Zhao Xiangmei and the others swallowed their saliva, thinking that every family has to mend their ways for another three years.
Although the Chen family is rich, they don't have much money. Except for Chen Qingyi, everyone in the family has patches on their clothes.
It’s just that Zhao Xiangmei is very skillful and the mending is done very nicely, so it’s almost impossible to see.
Although Chen Qingyi's clothes had no patches, she didn't have many sets of clothes, and some of them had turned white at the edges due to washing.
“Dangdangdang…”
"Look at this again, isn't it a surprise!"
The four mothers and children exclaimed, "Watch!"
Zhao Xiangmei's eyes widened, her heart pounding wildly, "You, how much money have you saved?"
She thought two or three hundred would be the maximum, but now it seems that five or six hundred is not enough.
How can my daughter be so awesome!
Chen Qingsong hissed, "This is too much."
Chen Qingyi waved her hand and said, "Money is earned to be spent. It won't produce any offspring if you just leave it there."
Mom, try it, I bought it for you."
Zhao Xiangmei put it on happily. She felt that her daughter was right: if you can spend, you can earn.
Since her daughter is filial, she just has to bear it.
"nice"
So delicious...
Chen Changbo will never be able to enjoy the watch bought by his daughter in his next life.
"And this, Mom, I bought you some rancid oil, the vanishing cream of friendship.
Haishi brand honey soap.
Everyone can use Fenghua’s shampoo, it not only cleans the hair but also makes it very effective.
It's also slippery.
And this colorful product, the salesman said that women in big cities love it."
Zhao Xiangmei was so moved...
I keep praising my daughter for being thoughtful.
Chen Qingyi was so praised that she held her face with both hands, looking so happy and dazed, as if she had eaten mushrooms from Yun Province.
He also gave his three brothers a smug look.
Chen Qingsong and the other two were left in a state of confusion.
But it made Zhao Chunmei laugh out loud.
Chen Qingbai saw Zhao Xiangmei's happy expression and smiled at Chen Qingyi.
Chen Qingyi continued to distribute gifts like a happy little bird.
"Here are twenty pairs of socks. I wanted to buy all red and green ones, but I was afraid my brothers wouldn't wash them.
It's not good if you are too dirty to take off your shoes.
I mostly buy black ones.
Mom, ours is red! I loved it when I chose it!
Woo woo... She lied. She had suffered too much for this family. She didn't like red socks at all.
But if she chooses white or black, her mother will definitely give her the red one.
Sure enough, Zhao Xiangmei couldn't let go of the red socks.
I changed into it right away and said, "Tomorrow your aunt, auntie and I will show it off."
In addition to these, Chen Qingyi took out five pairs of Liberation shoes.
Ten bars of soap.
Ten pounds of white flour, five pounds of rice, ten pounds of noodles, three pounds of brown sugar, and two pounds of White Rabbit tea.
A can of malted milk.
A jar of cookies she had specially shaken up.
Two bottles of canned hawthorn.
A small bag of melon seeds, "Mom, please fry some melon seeds and give them to us. It's boring on the road."
And you can still chatter! "
"Okay, I'll bring you two some more hazelnuts, make some more omelets, and boil some eggs.
I'm going to your grandma's house to ask for some salted eggs.
Bring more, it’s such a long journey.”
"It's okay, Mom. I saved up a lot of national tickets so I can buy a hot meal on the train."
Ever since she knew this day would come, Chen Qingyi had been preparing for it.
I exchanged many meat coupons, grain coupons, and cloth coupons with others.
She also learned ventriloquism from her second brother, preparing to put it to good use.
Every night when she couldn't sleep, she worked in the space experimental field.
Just thinking about how to deal with Chen Changbo and the others, "Hehe..."
After dinner, Zhao Xiangmei wanted to make some clothes for Chen Qingyi and Chen Changfeng overnight.
Dress decently when you go out so that you won’t be looked down upon.
Chen Qingyi quickly stopped him, swallowed the hawthorn in his mouth, and said:
"Mom, don't do it. I even think my clothes are not torn enough! I wish I could patch them up.
In the eyes of others, we are poor little ones who traveled thousands of miles from our hometown to find our father!
The more worn out the clothes are, the more they fit the personality.
Only in this way can we arouse the sympathy of others and then unite all the forces that can be united to help us.
Even if we are a little broke, there is still a reason for Chen Changbo to buy us new clothes.
How much more money can I get from him!
What I am most satisfied with now is my figure.
Look at him, how skinny he is, he looks like he hasn't had enough to eat, little cabbage, he's the standard without his father."
Zhao Xiangmei: ...She can never keep up with her daughter’s thinking.
