Only after leaving this place did Ningxia dare to breathe a sigh of relief.
God knows she had just been sitting there for a while, and the smell of cow dung mixed with dirty snow water went straight to her forehead.
The morning sickness that she had suppressed for several months showed signs of recovery.
I almost vomited in front of everyone.
Wen Shize raised his hand and patted her on the back, then took out a cloth bag from his pocket. The bag contained sour plums.
He pinched one and stuffed it into Ningxia's mouth. Ningxia swallowed the sour plum with great effort, and only then did she feel that her churning stomach felt better.
"Let's go to the supply and marketing cooperative. This is my first time here as an aunt, so I have to buy some things for the children."
Ningxia grabbed Wen Shize's arm and said with a smile.
"Buy less. They don't care about that. Besides, didn't we bring a lot of specialties from the new province this time?"
"How can they be the same? What is given to adults is for adults, and what is given to children is for children.
I am the children's aunt after all. Haven't you heard the saying? "Mother is the most important uncle!"
Ningxia learned this word from her aunt in the army.
According to that aunt, there was a family in their village whose parents had all died.
Only three children were left, and they had nowhere to go. In the end, their uncle took them in, never married, and raised the children to adulthood.
My dear uncle, this is not something you say lightly...
Wen Shize couldn't persuade her and could only nod in agreement.
When we arrived at the supply and marketing cooperative, the line was lined up outside the cooperative.
Ningxia frowned and said, "It seems we came at the wrong time."
The familiar aunt next to her laughed and replied naturally, "That's right, it's almost the New Year, and the textile factory has released a lot of defective cloth as welfare.
We don’t need cloth coupons, so everyone wants to buy more and buy new clothes for their family members!”
This aunt has a cheerful voice, and a big mole at the corner of her mouth is particularly noticeable.
Ningxia smiled at the aunt in a friendly manner. The aunt saw that Ningxia was pregnant and whispered to her, "If you want to buy something, just let your husband wait in line here.
This crowd is so crowded, it would be bad if it squeezes your stomach."
But Wen Shize was worried about leaving Ningxia alone far away.
Just as he was about to leave holding Ningxia's hand, he saw the little woman in front of him taking out a small cloth bag from her pocket.
With a smile as beautiful as a flower, she said to her aunt: "Can I ask for a favor, aunt?
I'll make a list of what I need and you can help me buy them. The money and tickets are in the cloth bag.
I will give you a dollar as reward......"
Before Ningxia even finished the word “remuneration”, the aunt nodded frantically: “Why not?
Come to think of it, it's not safe for you to stand there with a big belly. You need someone to protect you.
You two go ahead, I'll buy it for you, but of course, I definitely don't want the money!"
Ningxia's mouth twitched. You said you didn't want the money, but you put the money into your pocket faster than anyone else.
Ningxia looked at Wen Shize beside him, took out paper and pen from his pocket, and motioned Wen Shize to lower his body.
Wen Shize understood, half-bent his knees, flattened his back, and bent there.
Ningxia put the paper on his back and started writing quickly.
She wrote extremely neatly because she was afraid that her aunt would not be able to understand the cursive writing.
The aunt looked at the series of things and swallowed hard: So many things, I'm afraid it will cost a lot of money, right?
These two people were really generous. They handed the money and tickets to her so straightforwardly.
What if she was greedy, took the money and tickets, and sneaked out in the chaotic crowd?
Then these two people have no place to cry?
Ningxia handed the paper to her aunt: "Thank you for your hard work!"
Seeing his aunt joining the team, Wen Shize also pulled Ningxia to sit under a big tree not far away.
The mole lady put the paper and money into her pocket and quickly went to the side of the green-headed lady.
She whispered, “Did you see that just now?
Do you think these two people are crazy? How could they trust me with the money and tickets?
Although I have no bad intentions, they are too heartless. "
The lady in the green headscarf glanced at her and said, "Didn't you see what those two people were wearing?
Our county is now considered to be relatively wealthy among the nearby counties, but have you ever seen a couple who can afford to wear military coats?
What's more, there was not a single patch on the military coat, and the man's aura was most likely derived from that.
It's not that he is heartless, he just has confidence in himself.
Believe it or not, as soon as you run away with the money and tickets, the police will be looking for you everywhere."
The mole lady suddenly realized what was going on, and praised the green-headed lady with a lick of her cheek: "Oh, you still know more."
The lady in the green headscarf raised her head proudly and continued, "I see that girl has written a lot of things, what does she need to buy?
Do you want me to help you clean it up? Otherwise, how long will it take you to buy it by yourself?"
The lady with the mole felt a little painful. If she wanted to ask the lady with the green headscarf for help, wouldn't she have to give up her own dollar?
To be honest, she really doesn’t want to do that! ! !
The lady in the green headscarf seemed to see through her intention and rolled her eyes at her: "Who cares about your stuff?
I was afraid that if you bought all these things, you would not be able to catch up with the oxcart when it arrives."
The mole lady knew that she was judging others by her own standards, so she smiled in a flattering way at the green-headed lady.
"Then please help me buy some defective cloth, and I will concentrate on purchasing for them."
As the mole-faced lady spoke, she took out her household registration booklet from her bosom.
Although the supply and marketing cooperatives do not require tickets for defective cloth, everyone has a supply of it.
Calculated based on the number of people, each person in the family can take a certain amount of cloth.
The lady with the green headscarf put her household registration booklet into her cloth bag and waved her hand: "Everyone here is waiting in line for defective cloth. Take a look at what's on the list given by the female comrade?
There is no need to queue, you can just go in and buy it. ”
"Yes, yes, yes, you are right!"
The mole lady looked at the list while going inside.
I secretly thought: I made the right move. If I cling to the big cow lady's thigh tightly, I can avoid many detours! !
Some people were squeezed so hard that they staggered and started to curse: "We are all queuing up, can't you see? Why are you squeezing in? Do you have any manners?"
The mole lady said without any fear: "I don't want to buy defective cloth. Can't I buy something else?"
