Chapter 49 Chapter 49 This number can actually be dialed...
Zhao Ruyue was thinking about the number, and she woke up early the next morning.
However, Ning Shaoming got up earlier than her and heard Zhao Ruyue getting up.
He walked in and pulled out a piece of paper from his pocket: "Here, the area code starts with 02. There is only one. This is the first time I noticed a three-digit area code."
"It's actually the area code of Shanghai..." Zhao Ruyue felt a little surprised.
The Shanghai Stock Exchange has nothing to do with where they are.
Ning Shaoming saw that she was interested and suggested, "If you are really curious, why don't you try calling the number to see if you can get through? It won't cost much anyway."
"No, we can't fight at home." Zhao Ruyue was worried that if it was really as she thought, those people would find out about her family and her family would be retaliated against.
They have young children at home, and the children are used to running around in the village, so they can't go against their usual practice and not let them go out and play.
"So that's it?" Ning Shaoming knew Zhao Ruyue too well. "If I don't call you once, you will definitely keep thinking about me."
"Forget it. When we get to the county, we can just buy a phone card and call from a public phone booth." Zhao Ruyue didn't know whether she should be thankful or not. There was almost no surveillance in the county now.
Phone cards used to make calls at public telephone booths are not based on real names.
Just buy one, use it and throw it away, and no one will know who used it.
Ning Shaoming also vaguely felt that something was wrong. Combining the situation of the bride, he roughly knew what Zhao Ruyue was thinking.
Although he couldn't stand such things, he didn't want his family to get hurt by interfering in such things.
Ning Shaoming thought for a moment and said, "I've heard Xiaoxia say several times that she envied the kids she knew at school who had been to the city zoo. How about taking them to the city zoo?
We can go back to the county town to buy things in the afternoon. It doesn’t matter if we get home late. We can ride our bikes to the county town, so we don’t have to worry about missing the last bus back to town when we come back.”
He didn't say it explicitly, but the tacit understanding between husband and wife made Zhao Ruyue understand what he meant: "That's good. The two children will definitely be very happy to go to the zoo."
Ning Shixia got up as early as her father. After Ning Shaoming washed her and changed her into new clothes, she ran to the door with a small stool and sat there waiting.
Her friends came to ask her to go out and play, but she refused to go and pretended to be embarrassed. She thought she was not showing off too obviously, but in fact she was obviously showing off that her parents were going to take her to the county town to play.
"Oh, I can't do that today. My dad said that new clothes can't get dirty. If they get dirty, he won't take me to the county town to play."
I heard my friend exclaim "Wow" and say enviously: "Your parents are so nice. They are willing to take you with them when they go to the county town to buy things for the New Year."
Ning Shixia pouted and corrected her friend: "My parents didn't take me along on their way to the county town to buy things for the New Year. They said they were taking us along on a special trip to play and buy things at the same time."
Hearing her words, the little friend exclaimed again.
Ning Shiqiu also changed his clothes and came out with his sister's small backpack. Seeing this scene, he was really impressed by this little girl: "Stop bragging to others, and put this on your back quickly. Do you remember what your parents taught you last night?"
"Of course I remember!" Ning Shixia stood up from the center of the circle of praise from her friends, ran over, and with the help of her brother, put on the small backpack her mother bought for her.
Ning Shiqiu was worried: "Then recite it to me again."
Unexpectedly, Ning Shixia was still anxious about the fact that he didn't recite the magic spell to her last night: "No, you're not the teacher, why should I recite it to you!"
Ning Shiqiu: “…”
"Forget it, it seems someone doesn't really want me to buy her a little Monkey King card."
"I'll carry you, I'll carry you, brother, don't go!" Ning Shixia immediately grabbed him.
"Okay," Ning Shiqiu turned around and said reluctantly, "You have to recite it all at once without any mistakes."
Ning Shixia patted his chest and said confidently: "I will definitely pass it in one try!"
"Listen carefully, don't be distracted, I'm about to start!
First, if you are lost and can’t find an adult, you must ask the police for help and not just follow others. Second, you cannot eat anything given by others. Third, you must remember your own name and your family’s name, as well as your home address and phone number. My name is Ning Shixia, and my home address and phone number are…”
I recited ten in a row without making any mistakes.
Ning Shiqiu nodded with satisfaction: "Not bad, not bad. If you encounter any of the ten things when you go out today, and you can do as your parents taught you, I will buy two sets of Digimon cardboard and give you one when I get home. If you can't follow them, you won't get any."
Ning Shixia asked: "What if I don't meet him?"
"I'll give it to you even if I can't find it."
"Okay!" Ning Shixia felt that it was a trivial matter and agreed happily.
In the room, Zhao Ruyue and Ning Shaoming checked the things they needed to take with them and were preparing to go out.
Huang Xiuhua hurriedly called Ning Shaoming: "Third brother, remember to bring your passbook. While you can still send money today, hurry up and send the money you want to share with others."
Otherwise she would always be worried and nervous during the New Year, afraid that someone would come to her house to ask for money and bring shame to her whole family.
If she hadn't said it, Ning Shaoming would have almost forgotten about it. He said perfunctorily, "Don't worry, I'll bring it."
When they come back in the evening, they will tell his mother that the money has been sent to someone else. Even if it has been sent, she will not ask to see the remittance slip anyway, so it is easy to fool her.
The family of four did not have breakfast at home. They went out to the market together to have breakfast, bought some buns, soy milk and fried dough sticks, and then went to Zhao Ruyue's parents' home.
Her mother's family and her third uncle's family are close together and share a wall. Back then, these two courtyards were small courtyards separated from the old house.
Zhao Ruyue couldn't go empty-handed when she went to borrow her cousin's car. He probably wouldn't accept anything else she bought him, so she simply bought breakfast for her third uncle's family and her own mother's family.
This made the children of both families very happy.
Zhao Ruyue's cousin's family was relatively well-off, so although his children could eat it every now and then, he could only eat one thing at a time.
This was the first time that they had bean paste buns, vegetable buns, meat buns, soy milk, and fried dough sticks all at once. The little fat boy even asked her happily, "Aunt Ruyue, can you come and borrow the car more often in the future?"
Then he was hit on the head by his father.
After getting the car keys, the family of four happily rode their motorcycle to the county town.
I passed by the bus station in the town and saw a crowd of people waiting to get on the bus.
Each of the Wuling Hongguang cars that were used to solicit customers carried more than ten people.
Zhao Ruyue was very glad to borrow her cousin's car. Otherwise, if she hadn't brought the child with her, she wouldn't know when she could get a car to the county town.
She silently added buying a car to her shopping list. They had just paid off their debts this year, and were planning to build a house and open a store. Buying a car would be too eye-catching.
The people in this town usually look nice, but there are many who secretly hate others and laugh at others.
If you are too eye-catching, someone might try to trip you up, so it is better to build the house and open the store smoothly first, so that your store can gain a foothold in the town.
Wait until next year or the second half of this year to see if I can buy a car for my family.
Don’t even think about buying a small car in the next few years. Any car you buy in recent years will look very eye-catching.
Being able to buy a motorcycle and have a means of transportation that can travel relatively far already makes you considered a middle-class to upper-class family in the town. Otherwise, it would not be good to always borrow from others.
You can drive a motorcycle around the villages near the county town, taking the shorter roads. After more than 40 minutes, the family arrived at the county town and went straight to the county hospital.
Zhao Ruyue has several relatives who work at the county hospital. They can drive their cars to the parking lot of the county hospital, tell their relatives, and then park their cars there.
The hospital's parking lot is patrolled by security guards and is much safer than leaving it outside.
Ning Shaoming parked the car and waited in the parking lot with the child. Zhao Ruyue went in and found her best cousin Zhao Ruyu, with whom she had a close relationship. She told her that she wanted to borrow a place to park her car and gave her the scarf and gloves she had left for her.
Many people came to the hospital for medical treatment before the New Year.
Zhao Ruyue didn't understand why many migrant workers didn't like to go to their workplace for treatment when they got sick unless it was an emergency.
They like to procrastinate until they return to their hometown and then go to the hospital there for treatment.
Even the health center in their town has more patients than usual as the year draws to a close.
Zhao Ruyue's cousin is a nurse. She was very busy as soon as she changed shifts early in the morning. Zhao Ruyu hadn't seen Zhao Ruyue for a long time and wanted to chat with her more.
As a result, after the two met and chatted for just a few words, several people called her.
There was no choice but to make an appointment that she would have a rest during the Chinese New Year and they would have a good chat when she had time when she returned to her hometown.
Zhao Ruyu hurried to change the empty IV bottles for several patients, and took advantage of a little free time to send Zhao Ruyue to the parking lot.
Then he spoke a few words to the administrator, got them a parking ticket, parked the car, and hurried to the department.
Zhao Ruyue and Ning Shaoming took their two children out of the hospital and got on a tricycle that was soliciting passengers in front of the hospital.
Ning Shixia, who had just been afraid to speak in the hospital, became lively again as soon as she left the hospital.
After getting on the tricycle, they became even more excited when they learned that their parents were actually going to take them to the city zoo.
Along the way, that little head was like a radar, scanning left and right, front and back, extremely excited.
On the way to the county bus station, Ning Shaoming asked the driver to stop when passing by a newsstand.
He got off the bus and went to the newsstand to buy a phone card and a comic magazine.
The phone card was stuck in the magazine, and the driver thought he had gotten off the car specifically to buy the comic book for the child.
He also joked, "Are you worried that your child won't be able to stay in the car? Instead of buying this, why not buy some snacks and drinks? The supermarket in front that opened this year has them. There are discounts at the end of the year. If you want to buy something, I can stop there, but you have to be quick."
Ning Shaoming handed the magazine to Zhao Ruyue to put away first, and said to the driver: "Thank you, but there is no need to stop at the supermarket. We brought snacks, drinks and fruits from home."
After arriving at the bus station, take a bus to the city. After arriving in the city, there are buses to the zoo at the bus station.
The zoo is very close to the city’s bus station, and the bus only takes two stops to get there, but they only took one stop.
After getting off the bus halfway, Ning Shaoming took his two children to a roadside bookstore, while Zhao Ruyue went to find a public telephone booth by herself.
Fortunately, there were many public telephone booths in the city, and Zhao Ruyue found one after searching for a while.
She took out the phone card she bought in the county town and nervously pressed the number.
Hearing the dial tone of "beep-beep-beep" coming from the phone, Zhao Ruyue couldn't help but hold the receiver tightly. This number could actually be dialed...
Then the phone was actually picked up.
The person on the other end of the phone sounded a little tired: "Hello, hello! Who are you?"
