"That's great. I'll pack a separate portion for Niannian later, and you can take it back for her to eat."
Aunt Wang was also happy for Yang Yufen.
"That's great."
Yang Yufen didn't stand on ceremony either.
"Grandma, Grandma, hello Grandma Yang."
"Yaoyao is here."
Today, Yao Yao, wearing a red dress, ran in.
"Yaoyao is coming to Grandma's place and will be living with Grandma from now on. Aren't you happy?"
"happy!"
"Comrade Qin's mother-in-law, did you really make this cabinet?"
A woman approached Yang Yufen.
"Um."
"Um, my son is getting married at the end of the year. I think your cabinet is quite nice. Could you make one for me too? I'll pay you for the work."
"I'm sorry, I have to take care of my daughter-in-law, so the house can't be too messy."
Making a set of cabinets only costs a few yuan in labor. Yang Yufen might as well sell roasted sweet potatoes. Things are very different here compared to the countryside.
Yang Yufen also considered selling roasted sweet potatoes again, but after thinking about it, she gave up. The New Year was coming soon, and there weren't many sweet potatoes left at home. She also needed to prepare things for her unborn grandson.
Aside from the large amount spent at the department store last time, and the timber purchase this time, Yang Yufen still had over 2,800 yuan left after adding the money she earned from selling sweet potatoes, her son's allowance, and the household allowance Qin Nian gave her, in addition to her original savings of over 1,600 yuan.
Five days later, Yang Yufen received cotton sent by her friend Guixiang. It was so heavy that it definitely weighed more than thirty pounds.
After bringing the cotton back home, Yang Yufen pulled Aunt Wang out the door.
"Come on, come with me to buy fabric to make a quilt cover."
With the big bed, Aunt Wang felt uncomfortable looking at the small quilt. Although it wasn't her room, it belonged to her own son.
Aunt Liu has stopped going out since winter began.
The two walked past the supply and marketing cooperative and headed straight for the department store.
"Did you buy the candy you gave Yaoyao last time from here? I'll buy some too, Yaoyao loves it."
The two elderly women bought whatever they saw, spending money more freely than the young women at the department store, much to the surprise of the sales clerk.
"This fabric is nice."
"You two ladies have excellent taste. This is a shipment from the Shanghai Textile Factory. It just arrived yesterday. With the New Year approaching, our department store is having a promotion: no coupons required, just buy three feet and get a free towel."
Yang Yufen and Aunt Wang exchanged a glance and decided to buy it!
The two men, carrying thick fabric and bags piled high in their hands, returned home fully loaded with their goods.
"Let's go fluff the quilts together tomorrow."
Before Yang Yufen left, Aunt Wang said something to her.
"good."
Fang Fen returned and saw a large pile of fabric. Upon learning that it was for making new quilt covers for the couple, Fang Fen volunteered to take on the sewing work.
"Mom, I know how to use a sewing machine. Let me do it; it'll be quick."
"Okay, tomorrow your godmother and I will go fluff the quilts. You can decide which ones to take, and refurbish those that need refurbishing."
"Thank you for your help, Mom."
"There are two pieces of fabric inside. You can use them to make clothes for Yao Yao."
At this moment in a small town, a man is buying medicine for a woman. A note is tucked inside the medicine. After reading it, the man crumples the note into a ball, puts it in his mouth, chews it, and swallows it.
As the year draws to a close, the streets are decorated with lanterns and colorful decorations, and the festive atmosphere is growing stronger.
Inside the research institute, everyone was glued to the data, and Qin Nian was so nervous that she felt a bit uncomfortable in her stomach.
"It's done! The data is working perfectly!"
Cheers erupted, and Qin Nian breathed a sigh of relief.
