Chapter 1367 Pick Up the Package
When Lu Xiaoxiao arrived at the post office, she did not go to pick up the package immediately, but went to pick up the subsidy first. She had not collected the subsidy for several months. Since she was at the post office today, she picked up the subsidy as well, so as to avoid making a special trip later.
After receiving the subsidy, Lu Xiaoxiao went to pick up her packages. Because she had a lot of packages, she took them out from the post office in three batches. For the first two times she picked up the packages, she found an empty alley and put the packages into the space. She then carried the last package on her back and walked towards the ox cart.
"Xiaoxiao, what did you send? Why is it such a big package?" When Liu Jianguo saw Lu Xiaoxiao carrying a package that was almost as tall as her, he immediately got off the ox cart and took the package off Lu Xiaoxiao.
"Uncle Liu, there are some mountain products in the package. It looks big, but it's actually not very heavy."
"It's indeed not that heavy." Liu Jianguo said after weighing the package in his hand.
"Of course it's not heavy, otherwise I wouldn't want to send it by mail, the postage is expensive."
"Xiaoxiao, do you want to sit down and rest for a while?" Wan Xuemei asked Lu Xiaoxiao when she saw her face was red from the sun.
"No, I'm a little hungry now, and I want to eat at the state-owned restaurant. Do you want to come with me?"
"want."
"Uncle Liu, could you please help look after our luggage?"
"good."
When Lu Xiaoxiao and Wan Xuemei arrived at the state-owned restaurant and saw that dumplings were served at noon, they each ordered a serving of dumplings.
After lunch, Lu Xiaoxiao bought two buns from the window and walked towards the ox cart with Wan Xuemei. It was noon and the sun was too scorching. She was not in the mood to hang around the street, so she planned to go to the ox cart to avoid the sun.
"Xiaoxiao, aren't you full?" Wan Xuemei asked Lu Xiaoxiao after looking at the bun in Lu Xiaoxiao's hand.
“I’m full.”
"Why do you want to buy buns when you are full?"
"For Uncle Liu."
"Oh, yes. Uncle Liu helped us look after our luggage. We wanted to bring him lunch as a thank you."
"Um."
"Xiao Xiao, do you think I should go to the supply and marketing cooperative to buy something for Uncle Liu?"
"No, I'll just buy it, but did you bring daily necessities from home?"
"I brought some small things. I'll buy the big ones here."
"Then go buy it now, otherwise you will have to come to the county again tomorrow."
"good."
After Lu Xiaoxiao accompanied Wan Xuemei to the supply and marketing cooperative to buy all the missing items, they returned to the ox cart. Because they had spent a long time in the supply and marketing cooperative, it was already half past one when they returned to the ox cart, and the villagers who had come to the county town had also returned.
After Lu Xiaoxiao and Wan Xuemei came back, Liu Jianguo counted the number of people. When he confirmed that everyone was back, he asked everyone to sit on the ox cart and drove the cart back to the village.
"Uncle Liu, these are the buns I bought for you." Lu Xiaoxiao stuffed the buns into Liu Jianguo's hands when no one was paying attention.
"You kid, didn't I tell you not to buy these before? Why did you buy them again?"
"Hehe... I won't buy it next time, so just eat it quickly."
After hearing what Lu Xiaoxiao said, Liu Jianguo smiled helplessly, then took out a bun from the oil paper bag and started eating.
More than half an hour later, the oxcart returned to Tianshui Village. After Lu Xiaoxiao got off the oxcart, she said to Wan Xuemei, "Sister Xuemei, you and Uncle Liu go to the captain's house first. I'll go to the educated youth site to find you later."
"good."
