Chapter 45 Dazzling Small Commodities

so it is!

Director Qi was deeply impressed by the candidates from Fengcheng this year, especially Hang Chenggang who performed exceptionally well.

He is now the face of the county's No. 2 Middle School, and the banner is still hanging at the school gate.

Director Qi couldn't help but sigh: "They say family traditions are the source of one's learning. So this is the source of my family tradition!"

The brother is so promising, and the sister is not much behind.

When Teacher Cai heard Hang Jingshu say this, his heart ached even more. How come other people's homes can produce double-yolk eggs, but his home only produces bitter gourds?

Comparing yourself to others will make you feel thief.

With Hang Chenggang's guarantee, Director Qi and Teacher Cai felt that Hang Jingshu should not be let off. This year, the number of students admitted to undergraduate programs from the county's No. 2 Middle School almost exceeded that of the city's No. 1 Middle School.

As the head teacher of the senior year class, Mr. Qi felt a lot of pressure. A student like Hang Jingshu who studies hard must go to the No. 1 Middle School in the city!

"Xiaohang, the teacher still recommends that you go to school for classes. Our learning pace and regular class summaries are all things worth learning," Teacher Cai persuaded Hang Jingshu earnestly.

As experienced people, they are unwilling to give up any good seedling.

Hang Jingshu looked at Teacher Cai and answered sincerely: "Thank you, Teacher Cai. I still stick to my idea."

Seeing that Hang Jingshu didn't seem to be showing off, Director Qi and Teacher Cai looked at each other and realized that this child was also a strong-willed person.

In this day and age, grades are what count in studies. In the end, even if the people are not in place, the weekly homework and exams must be in place.

And Hang Jingshu had to go to No. 1 Middle School in the city to take the test again.

Before leaving, Teacher Cai still wanted to make one last effort, so he took Hang Jingshu's hand and asked, "Are you really not considering going to class?"

Hang Jing knew that she valued talent, but he still had a lot of things to do and couldn't promise her anything. He could only smile and refuse: "Teacher, I promise to hand in my homework on time every week."

At this point, Teacher Cai had nothing more to say, and just reminded Hang Jingshu to go to the No. 1 Middle School for the exam after the vacation.

After seeing off Director Qi and Teacher Cai, Hang Jingshu began to prepare lunch.

Now that the weather is getting colder, it's time to eat something warm.

What I made for lunch today was lamb.

Hang Jingshu had cooked the mutton offal soup in a pot last night. Considering Grandma Yan's taste, he also made mutton soup.

Freshly cut thin biscuits, paired with freshly baked sesame oil and salted biscuits, are hot and soft, and paired with home-squeezed chili oil, it is really fragrant!

Tomorrow is National Day, and this year we will hold a grand military parade, which sounds like an exciting event.

The No. 1 Middle School in the city had a three-day holiday for National Day, so Teacher Cai kept reminding Hang Jingshu to take the exam after the holiday.

I was afraid that she would slack off during these three days and her test results would be unstable.

Now schools still have a single day off. In addition to the National Day holiday, there are also holidays on May 1st and Children's Day.

It was still more than ten years before the National Day holiday was formed.

Rural schools have a different way of having holidays. Children in the north should all know that every year schools have wheat harvest holiday and autumn break.

The wheat harvest holiday lasts ten days, and the autumn holiday and National Day are combined to make a total of fourteen days, so that students can help with housework at home.

Correspondingly, the winter and summer vacations in rural schools will be shorter than those in urban areas.

This situation continued until the introduction of the two-day weekend in 1996. With the increasing popularity of agricultural mechanization, these holidays gradually disappeared from memory.

This year's National Day holiday coincides with the Double Ninth Festival, and several pots of chrysanthemums have been placed in the courtyard, with colors such as light yellow, snow blue, light pink, and mud gold complementing each other.

The flowers have beautiful shapes and unique fragrance, creating a unique and magnificent scenery in autumn.

The Yan family had no objection to Hang Jingshu's decision. With the example of Yan Cheng'an, Hang Jingshu's little peculiarity was nothing.

Night slowly fell, the blue sky was dotted with stars. After dinner, Hang Jingshumao wrote a letter to his third brother Hang Chenggang in his little room.

Hang Jingshu didn't plan to tell his parents about his chance to repeat his studies at the No. 1 Middle School.

If they knew that he could repeat his grade in the No. 1 Middle School in the city, they would definitely ask him to go to class and study hard, which Hang Jingshu did not need for the time being.

After breakfast the next day, Hang Jingshu took his saved wages and went to the gate of the compound to wait for Wang Silan to show up.

Unexpectedly, both my parents showed up.

Wang Silan looked helplessly at Hang Renshan who was following her: "Your father said he was worried about me going away and insisted on following me. I said that the food at home had to be collected, but he disagreed."

Hang Renshan scratched his head nonchalantly: "Collecting food is no big deal. We will be back in three days. I am worried about your mother going alone. What if she gets lost?"

Hang Jingshu: …

I never thought there would be dog food to eat.

These days, there is a mix of good and bad people, and cases of women and children being abducted are endless. I have to say that Hang's father's consideration is correct.

But then again, who would kidnap a middle-aged woman who looks so smart and capable? !

Unable to cope with his biological father's eye attack, Hang Jingshu agreed with him reluctantly, and then got on the bus to the train station with his parents.

In order to purchase goods, Wang Silan traveled light. It would not be a big deal if she did not change her clothes for two days in such weather. She only brought two oversized cloth bags and all the money in the family.

The money is evenly distributed on clothes in unexpected places on the body.

Crease holes, trouser pockets, shoe soles, socks, wherever there is something weird.

There was even a cloth bag tied around his calf.

Almost everyone in the bus carried large and small bags. Some were working outside, some were visiting relatives. All of them carried large and small bags. Only the three members of the Hang family had nothing in their hands, and they looked extremely relaxed.

Wuu—wuuu—

Wuu—wuuu—

The train whistle blew continuously. Hang Jingshu started to remind Wang Silan as soon as he got off the train: "Mom, remember not to buy too much of anything. Don't buy anything with ugly patterns or low quality. And don't forget to buy buttons, zippers, and small decorations."

Wang Silan and Hang Renshan listened very carefully. If they were illiterate, they would have wanted to write it down directly on paper!

When Hang's father and mother got in the car, Hang Jingshu took advantage of their unpreparedness and directly stuffed the money in his hand into Wang Silan's hand, "Mom, take this money, don't be reluctant to stay in a hotel tonight!"

Wang Silan wanted to stuff the money back, but it was impossible for her to go against the flow of people. She could only watch the figure of the young lady getting farther and farther away.

When the train whistle sounded again, Hang's father and mother got on the train to Chouzhou.

Hang Jingshu watched the train until it disappeared from view, then he started to walk back along with the crowd.

——————

The smell inside the train was not pleasant. Wang Silan and Hang Renshan bought hard seats, and it took them nearly 6 or 7 hours to get there.

Wang Silan prepared rolls and steamed buns, as well as a large pot of boiled water, which was all the food for the two of them on the journey.

They left home early in the morning and arrived in the afternoon. The couple packed up simply and planned to spend the night in the train station.

Although the lady asked them to stay in a hotel that night, the couple, who were always frugal, agreed verbally, but finally chose to take turns to rest in the station.

The next morning, the couple packed their things and took a bus directly to the small commodity market.

Only after seeing the goods here did Wang Silan understand why the lady insisted on letting her purchase the goods herself.

The stuff here is so cheap!

The card-issuing supply and marketing cooperative sells it for a few cents, and here are a few cents!

Hair flowers are sold by the lot!

Fresh little dolls, knitwear, nail clippers with stickers, beautiful and exquisite wall paintings, rare and new little toys...

The couple looked at each other.

Buy it! Buy it! Buy it!
