Everyone was extremely satisfied with the dinner.
After dinner, Xia Weian took the boys to wash up and go back to their rooms first, and then Song Qingyun took the girls to wash up and let them go back to their rooms.
We were so busy today and too excited that we all fell asleep early.
Xia Weian and Song Qingyun both have better physical and mental strength, and they entered the space together.
"Brother Gu brought a lot of New Year gifts today, so we also have to prepare some gifts to visit him." Xia Weian said.
Song Qingyun nodded. "I'll make a list. See if you've forgotten anyone."
The couple sat at the desk and Song Qingyun began to write.
"Brother Gu's family, Brother Shen's family, Brother Sui's family, Brother Sui's family, Sister Wan's family, and Li Li's family."
"In the village, we have to go to Uncle Lao Gen's house, the team leader's house, and the Party Secretary's house."
Xia Weian nodded, "Yes, but the etiquette cannot be the same."
"Uncle Lao Gen, the Party Secretary, and the Team Leader in the village all gave the same gift."
"Brother Shen, Brother Gu, Brother Sui, Sister Wan, and Li Li sent the same gift."
Song Qingyun tapped the paper with his pen. "I see. Give each family of Brother Gu and his family eight cans of food: two cans of fruit, two cans of pickles, two cans of fish, and two cans of meat sauce. Plus, two air-dried chickens and two air-dried rabbits."
"Okay, this place is already very heavy. Didn't you take all our canned goods and other things to the Chengwu Army? Do you have any more?"
"Get some cans and bottles, and I'll do it."
Xia Weian responded, "No problem, I'll buy it tomorrow."
He had become familiar with Uncle Han, the gatekeeper of the glass factory. Since he was not on holiday yet, Xia Weian decided to buy more.
"Uncle Lao Gen and his family can't give such expensive gifts. Two chickens and five pounds of flour to each family." Song Qingyun said after thinking for a while.
"Yes, this gift is considered very generous in the village."
If it’s any heavier, they won’t be able to return the gift.
The air-dried chicken and air-dried rabbit are in their space, so they can just pack them up and put them in the backpack when the time comes.
"I'll make another little doll just for Tongtong."
"Okay." Xia Weian responded.
After the two of them had discussed it, they went to bed.
The next morning, Song Qingyun got up and made breakfast for the whole family.
After breakfast, Song Qingyun and Xia Weian were about to discuss preparing for the New Year.
Song Qingyun was about to make a list when Wang Chen arrived.
Lu Huailin, Gu Xu, Xia Changle, Xia Qingyu, Xia Zhihuan and Xia Suihe were having fun in the yard.
Seeing Wang Chen, the smile on Lu Huailin's face instantly faded. He strode forward and asked, "Uncle Wang, what are you doing here?"
Wang Chen was a little embarrassed by Lu Huailin's question full of vigilance. "I'm here to give you a New Year's gift. My boss asked me to come."
"Come in." Lu Huailin said.
Wang Chen came in carrying bags of things.
Seeing him carrying so many things, Song Qingyun and Xia Weian were stunned for a moment and exchanged glances.
"This is too valuable. We can't accept it."
"Comrade Xia, Comrade Song, this is what our leader meant. He said he can't spend the New Year with his children this year. I'm sorry to trouble you. The gift is just a token of my appreciation." After Wang Chen finished speaking, he put down his things and turned around and ran away.
Xia Weian didn't have time to chase after her.
Lu Huailin hurriedly said, "Uncle Wei'an, this is given by my third uncle, so let's accept it."
Xia Weian looked at the things on the ground and thought to himself, he had to collect them. The things were already here, and he couldn't just throw them away.
He exchanged glances with Song Qingyun. It seemed that he had to prepare another New Year gift for Lu Zhe.
But Lu Zhe is in a high position and far away from them, so he probably can't use their things.
What's a suitable gift?
Both husband and wife fell silent.
"Uncle Wei'an, Auntie, don't think about giving my Third Uncle a return gift. My Third Uncle doesn't need anything."
"His gloves are torn. How about you make him a pair of gloves, auntie?"
Lu Huailin acted like a little adult, and Song Qingyun was amused by him.
"Okay, I'll make a pair of gloves for your uncle, but I don't know how big his hands are."
Lu Huailin went over and took Xia Weian's hand to measure it, then said to Song Qingyun, "It's the same size as Uncle Weian's hand."
Song Qingyun nodded and said, "Okay."
She planned to make a pair of gloves for Lu Zhe using rabbit fur, and buy some gifts for Lu Huailin to take back.
Song Qingyun thought roughly and realized that he had a lot of things to do during the New Year.
"Is the brigade slaughtering the New Year pig this year?"
"Kill the New Year pig on the 28th." Xia Weian said, "I heard from the team leader that there will be a big market at the Red Star Commune from the 27th to the morning of the 30th this year."
"Uncle Wei'an, are we going to the market?" Gu Xu heard it and came over to ask.
In one word, all the children's attention was attracted.
Everyone looked at Xia Weian and Song Qingyun eagerly, and almost waved their flags and shouted, "Go, go, go, let's go!"
In the past, the Xia sisters had very few opportunities to go out, let alone go to the market.
Every day is either work or work.
It has only been more than half a year since they left the Xia family, but they feel like they have experienced a long time... They feel like they have been reborn.
Gu Xu and Lu Huailin had never been to a rural fair, but they also wanted to go.
Song Qingyun was amused.
"Okay, let's go then. Wei'an, can we still buy and sell things at this year's fair?"
"Well, the captain said that, just like in previous years, we can buy, sell, and exchange things," said Xia Weian.
"Let's sell something and make some money." Xia Changle's eyes lit up. She had heard Xia Zichen brag before, saying that things at the fair were easy to sell, and as long as someone set up a stall, everything could be sold out.
She also wants to sell things. For money, such good things, she wants more.
"Changle wants to set up a stall?" Lu Huailin asked.
Xia Changle nodded.
"Let's discuss what we can sell." Lu Huailin immediately frowned and began to think.
"I'll come too." Gu Xu responded immediately.
Xia Qingyu, Xia Zhihuan and Xia Suihe also supported it.
A few of the kids went into Lu Huailin's room and started discussing.
Song Qingyun smiled dotingly, "Then let's discuss selling things for two days."
"Okay, what are you selling?"
"Food?" Song Qingyun thought, when visiting the market, it is inevitable to buy food, and there are so many things she can cook.
"Okay, we can set up the stall for two days, and then we won't go out for the next two days. We have to take care of things at home."
"Yeah." Song Qingyun responded.
"Uncle and Aunt, we have a big family and can do anything quickly. If setting up a stall can make money, Li Zhao and I can do anything." Han Chengwu said immediately.
"I'll be in charge of the work, and you guys will be in charge of selling things. The important thing is, we have many children in our family, and we have to take good care of them," said Song Qingyun.
"Don't worry, Aunt San/Godmother."
