Chapter 22 What is your misunderstanding of the word honesty?
After dinner, Su Ruanruan told Grandma Chen that she wanted to go to town.
But going to the town is not something you can do just like that. Grandma Chen agreed, but she still had to go to the team leader to get a letter of introduction.
While it was still light, Grandma Chen took Su Ruanruan out and went straight to the Xiao family.
When the two arrived at the Xiao family, the Xiao family had just finished their meal.
Xiao Dashan was a little surprised to see that Grandma Chen came back not long after she left.
After listening to Grandma Chen's purpose of visit, he agreed without saying a word, turned into the house and went to get a letter of introduction.
When Xiao Chengjin saw Su Runruan and Grandma Chen coming in together, his eyes lit up. When he heard that Su Runruan was going to town tomorrow, he immediately became eager.
After Granny Chen and Su Ruanruan left with the letter of introduction, Xiao Chengjin immediately rushed to Xiao Dashan and said, "Grandpa, I want to go to the town tomorrow, too."
Xiao Dashan glanced at Xiao Chengjin unhappily, "What? Isn't the team enough for you? Do you want to go to town?"
Xiao Chengjin still smiled when he heard this, "I'll just go for a walk and buy you a few packs of cigarettes."
Smoke!
Xiao Dashan moved his fingers, his face still stern, "You better be honest, no one in this town will give me face as the captain."
Xiao Chengjin nodded his head like pounding garlic, "Don't worry, Master. I am the most honest person."
Hearing this, Xiao Dashan hadn't said anything yet, but Xiao Xiulan, who was sitting beside him, sneered, "I think you must have some misunderstanding about the word honesty."
——
The next morning, after breakfast, Grandma Chen went out to herd sheep.
Before leaving, Granny Chen reminded him again, "Ruanruan, go earlier and come back earlier! Be careful on the road."
Su Ruanruan smiled and agreed, "Don't worry, grandma, I will definitely go there early and come back early."
There was a reason why Granny Chen was relieved that Su Ruanruan could go to the town alone. Su Ruanruan had attended junior high school in the town for three years before! Their brigade was also relatively close to the town, and it only took half an hour to walk there. Su Ruanruan would walk back and forth once a day, and was familiar with the road, so there was really nothing to worry about.
After Grandma Chen left, Su Runrun found a backpack, put some hay at the bottom of the basket, and then put the various things she had prepared in it one by one. Finally, she covered the top with hay, then locked the door and went to town.
After leaving the house and walking along a small path for a short while, you will reach the main road. After walking along the road for half an hour, you will reach the town.
Su Ruanruan had walked this road countless times, and she would not go wrong even with her eyes closed.
When she arrived in town, it was just eight o'clock in the morning.
Some of the houses in the town have brick walls and tiled roofs, while others have mud walls and thatched roofs, but overall they look much better than the ones in the Third Production Brigade.
Although it is not as big as a county town, the town is not small either.
There are four main roads running horizontally and vertically. The supply and marketing cooperative, post office, state-owned restaurant, school and town hospital are all located next to the main roads.
But Su Runrun did not go to these places. She took a few detours and soon entered the public toilet.
Taking advantage of the fact that there was no one inside, Su Ruanruan changed her clothes.
The powder from the Treasure Space was rubbed on her hands and face, and her originally fair skin turned dark, yellow and dull.
Su Ruanruan also secretly took Grandma Chen's clothes and headscarf, put on Grandma Chen's clothes, and then wrapped the headscarf around her. She walked with her body slightly hunched, looking like a thin and small old lady.
After getting dressed up, Su Ruanruan went to the black market in the town.
