After Xiang Mianmian's persuasion, Xiang Meimei agreed to take her to hand over the matchbox.
Xiang Mianmian was so happy that she quickly helped the four people. The work that was supposed to be completed at 11 o'clock was finished at 10:30.
After looking at the two large baskets of matchboxes, Xiang Meimei squatted down to find the carrying rope and said, "Lili and Lidang stay home to look after the house. Hurry up and paste the remaining matchboxes. Remember not to open the door for anyone who comes. I'll try to be back as early as possible."
Xiang Lihua's eyes lit up as she listened, and she quickly put on another large basket. "Sister, I'm going with you. Can we take Jianshe Road on our way back? My friends are waiting for me there to play."
Afraid that the two enemies would fight, he took Zou Lihua and angrily asked Xiang Meimei: "Aren't you coming back for dinner?"
Nowadays, anyone who dares to go to someone else's house to eat for free will be stabbed in the back. Unless someone invites you, it is impossible to go to eat empty-handed.
Xiang Lihua touched his nose and said, "We agreed to go catch bamboo rats, sister, in the bamboo forest behind our house. I promise I won't go up the mountain."
There was nothing she could do about this monkey. Xiang Meimei rolled her eyes at him and said, "I won't care if mom comes back and scolds you. Xiaomian, let's go."
The three of them went out, leaving the third child Xiang Lidang and the fifth child Xiang Lili at home to look after the house.
They chatted occasionally and it was already half past eleven when they arrived at the match factory. Xiang Meimei wiped the sweat off his face, looked at the clock on the wall, and breathed a sigh of relief. He finally caught up.
I was even happier to see that there was no one queuing at the delivery site.
The staff member was an old hand and knew at a glance that there was no difference in the two large baskets. He nodded with satisfaction and counted the money with his mouth saliva: "Comrade Chen, give them another 10,000."
Chen Wei, who was standing next to him, was stunned for a moment. "...Okay, this is 10,000. As usual, give me 10 extra as a backup."
Xiang Mianmian knew what was going on when she saw that the man's eyes were almost glued to her second sister.
While Xiang Meimei was counting the matchboxes with Chen Wei, Xiang Mianmian approached the person counting the money with a shining look in his eyes.
The staff member was amused by the sight and counted the money twice before handing it to Xiang Mianmian: "Five yuan, little girl, count it. You can count now, right?"
Xiang Mianmian couldn't wait to take it, and she didn't care about other people's saliva. The moment the money was in her hand, System Xiao 6 immediately simulated the sound effect of scattering flowers in her mind:
[Chi~Bang, congratulations to the host, you've completed the novice mission: earn 80 cents in 86 hours, and you'll be rewarded with a regular job at the steel mill. There's also a novice gift pack stored in your space, please check.]
Xiang Mianmian grinned. Her family spent 400 yuan to hire a temporary worker for her elder brother Xiang Liguo.
I asked someone for information about regular workers, and one company offered 800 yuan for taking over after a work-related injury or illness, while another company quoted 900 yuan for retirement, which is more expensive because the monthly pension has been reduced from 20 yuan to 5 yuan.
This system gave her a regular job right away, and that's 800 yuan! How much pork could she buy? Oh my god, a thousand pounds!!! She'd eat so much that her whole family would vomit.
Xiang Mianmian was so happy that she was silly, but she didn't even bother counting the money. 5 yuan is also love.
"One, two, three, four, five, thank you uncle, the number is correct."
The staff member smiled, then turned his head and looked at the silly look of his nephew next to him with annoyance. This silly boy didn't even know how to chase after someone:
"Comrade Chen, I have a stomachache and need to go to the bathroom. Please keep an eye on me."
After saying that, he went to the bathroom.
Smiling secretly at Mianmian, this excuse is really lame.
She observed Xiang Meimei carefully. It was obvious that it was not the case that the King of Xiang was interested but the Goddess was not. Xiang Meimei must also be interested in Chen Wei, and her face was blushing.
The two men whispered a few words, and because they were afraid of a bad influence, they quickly handed the matchbox over. Chen Wei also stuffed a handkerchief into the basket.
"Okay, just make sure you agree on the quantity and take the money. Let's go back quickly so that Mianmian and Lihua don't starve."
He laughed heartily.
Wow, he even knows her family situation and recognizes her younger brother and sister-in-law. It seems he came prepared.
As Xiang Mianmian was smacking her lips, she heard Xiang Meimei say softly, "It's hot in autumn. Comrade Chen, you should find a shady place and stay out of the sun."
A woman in love is really amazing. Her voice is completely different from when she's at home! At least five degrees sweeter!
Xiang Mianmian felt a chill, shivered all over, and kicked over the bowl of dog food. She pinched the corner of Xiang Meimei's clothes and said, "Second sister, go back. Let's go buy some groceries."
Seeing that the two little guys were in a hurry to go back, Xiang Meimei had to smooth her hair, call Chen Wei, and go to the vegetable market carrying a basket of matchbox materials.
Xiang Lihua was already restless. Before he even reached the vegetable market, he rushed to Jianshe Road and threw the basket to Xiang Mianmian: "Little sister, I'm going to catch bamboo rats. If I catch any, it'll be a snack tonight."
Before he finished speaking, the person had disappeared.
"Ah, this kid," Xiang Meimei shook her head, "Next time, ask your third brother to come out and make a party. He's not easy to deal with at all. There's really nothing you can do about him."
The two went to the vegetable market, which was officially open and allowed trading. After all, there were so many people in the city, and there would always be unemployed people who needed to eat.
You just need tickets, food tickets.
Xiang Meimei also inherited Zhang Jidi's good genes. She went around the vegetable market, picked the cheapest cucumbers and eggplants and bought two pounds, and also bought two pieces of tofu. In total, she spent half a pound of food coupons and sixty cents.
Xiang Mianmian carried the vegetables, while Xiang Meimei carried the heavier matchbox, and the two of them rushed back home.
When they returned to the yard and were about to go upstairs, they found a melon, a big one at that.
