Chapter 49 Shopping



Hu Xiaoman returned home and quickly reviewed his lessons.

When you’re hungry, just cook a bowl of noodles. It’s just a quick meal, as long as you’re not hungry.

She hasn't had a good meal during this period, mainly because she doesn't have time to cook.

She wanted to cook more dishes and have leftovers when the time came.

But there is no time.

Hu Xiaoman must make sure he gets eight hours of sleep every day, otherwise he won’t feel energetic enough.

I get up at six o'clock every day, and then go to work and study.

There really isn't enough to do anything.

She checked the time and hurried to bed.

For the next two days, Hu Xiaoman went to and from get off work every day, then went to night school, and came back to review in the evening.

This weekend, she slept in until nine o'clock.

I got up, packed up, changed my clothes and went out.

I'm going to a banquet today. I can't eat breakfast, so I have to eat more.

The Hu family's house was quite lively today. Not only were all of Hu Qinghai's old colleagues at work there, but Hu Dong's colleagues were also there.

The whole family was busy inside and outside, and it looked really festive.

Tian Xinhua had sharp eyes and hurried over when he saw her coming.

"Oh, Xiaoman is here, come in and see your nephew."

As she said that, she pulled Hu Xiaoman into the house.

Hu Qinghai was entertaining guests nearby and was very happy to see her coming.

He believes that we are all a family and should always live in harmony.

Hu Xiaoman must be feeling unhappy because he moved away due to housing problems, but there was nothing he could do and he could only give up his salary.

Now that I can come back, it means that I still have this home in my heart.

When Hu Xiaoman entered the room, he saw Hu Dong's wife, Wang Xicui, sitting there holding the child.

It turned out that the single bed she was sleeping in had been turned into a double bed, but they just added two wooden boards inside, and the width was very crowded for two people and a child.

There was a baby crib next to the desk, made of wooden boards.

Originally, Hu Xiaoman was quite unhappy. After all, no one would be happy to be kicked out.

Although it is crowded here, it is the space that belonged to the original owner after all.

But when he saw this scene, Hu Xiaoman felt very uncomfortable.

Forget it, I won’t bother with this couple.

After looking at the child, she didn't say anything unpleasant. After all, the children were innocent.

"My aunt is here." Wang Xicui greeted her with an embarrassed expression on her face.

She also knew that it was because of the relationship between her and her husband that she let Hu Xiaoman move out.

Although he is young, he is of higher generation than you and is not a child, so he will definitely be unhappy.

Hu Xiaoman nodded and took out a small quilt from his bag.

She wouldn't give money to adults, so it didn't matter if she gave the kid something.

Don’t even think about milk powder, she’s not that generous yet.

"The weather is getting cold, so I saved up some money and bought this new quilt for the child." After she said that, she placed the quilt beside the bed.

This quilt is very small and cannot be used by adults at all. It is only one meter wide and long, and can only cover children over three years old.

Seeing the light gray quilt, Wang Xicui was a little flattered.

I thought Hu Xiaoman would say something sarcastic, but I didn't expect him to actually buy a quilt for the child.

They made this quilt from scraps of cotton they found at home, and it's not warm at all.

"Thank you, aunt." Wang Xicui's eyes were filled with tears.

She has been upset every day because of her child's problems during this period, and she didn't expect that someone would still care about her child.

Although it was a boy, Tian Xinhua and his wife didn't care too much.

Instead, Wang Xicui was asked to go to her parents' home to ask for things. How could she possibly go?

Hu Xiaoman didn't say anything, just glanced at the child and went out.

Tian Xinhua looked at the quilt and felt it was a pity. It would have been better if it had a bigger quilt.

She quickly followed Hu Xiaoman out and said, "Xiaoman, there's nothing to eat at home. Can you finish your rations?"

Hu Xiaoman stared at her until she was completely stunned, then replied, "Sister-in-law, you know it's not easy for me to be alone out there. If you have any extra food at home, please send it to me."

Lose it!

Still thinking about helping them? You must have a punctured brain to do that!

Tian Xinhua rolled her eyes and said, she would never give it to him!

Hu Xiaoman saw that it was time for dinner, so he sat down with everyone to eat.

Today is a rare good day, so no one is looking for trouble.

Hu Xiaokang was on a business trip again, so I didn't see him.

Instead, she saw Du Fang taking her child to eat. She said hello to Du Fang and left after dinner.

After all, she was the wife of the original owner's third brother, and the third brother treated her well, so he gave her some face.

After dinner, Zhang Chunxia wanted to talk to Hu Xiaoman, but she couldn't find him.

Du Fang glanced at her mother-in-law and said, "Xiao Man left after eating."

In fact, she felt very uncomfortable when she saw such parents-in-law. If she had not married, there would be no place for her to live at home.

She also has brothers, but even now that she is married, her family has always reserved a room for her.

Even my nephew doesn't dare to live there.

When she heard that the person had left, Zhang Chunxia went into the house cursing.

This damn girl, it's like she'll lose a piece of flesh if she stays at home any longer!

Hu Qinghai saw her enter the room and asked, "Where's Xiaoman?"

He took a look just now while eating, and he didn't see anyone after the meal.

Seeing that there were other people around, Zhang Chunxia suppressed her anger and said, "Let's go back."

Going back?

Hu Qinghai nodded without asking any more questions and turned to continue talking to others.

Just leave.

Hu Xiaoman went to the supply and marketing cooperative after leaving Old Hu's house. Now she has some extra tickets in her hands, and she has to use them when necessary.

I bought two bars of soap, a towel, and a toothbrush and toothpaste.

These things have to be placed outside, otherwise people will think she doesn't brush her teeth or wash her face.

Originally, she washed and brushed her teeth in the space, but there was nothing outside.

Those toiletries couldn’t be taken out either. They had all kinds of labels on them and the styles were different from what we have now.

After buying the things, she carried the basket to the black market.

I haven't been out for a while, and I have less money in my pocket. I can't just sit there and eat all my money.

Of course, the money is current money. Apart from her salary, she basically has no income.

When she arrived here, she went straight to Liu Jie.

Liu Jie didn't recognize her when he saw her. It was only when he heard that she had bought an electric stove that he remembered which one it was.

After all, there are not many people who can afford electric stoves at this time. It’s not that they can’t afford it, but that it’s not worth it.

"Comrade, is that you?" Liu Jie smiled and said, "What would you like to buy today? We have a lot of new goods, would you like to take a look?"

Those who can spend money lavishly are good customers, so of course we should treat them better.

Hu Xiaoman had exactly this in mind. In addition to buying things, she also wanted to sell things.

The two of them went to the compound one after the other, and as usual, there was no one setting up a stall at the door.

It seems that they are really resourceful. They don't set up stalls in such a nice place.
