Wang Xiuzhi and Zhang Aiying, who were busy cooking in the kitchen, came out when they heard the noise.
"Hey, Yue'er, where are your braids?"
Wang Xiuzhi immediately discovered that her daughter's braid was gone, and her heart began to beat fast with fear.
This braid is something she is proud of, why would she just cut it off?
Jiang Qingyue smiled and said, "Mom, it's nothing. I happened to meet someone who was buying braids when I went to the county today. I saw that the price was right, so I sold it. Anyway, I've grown my braids long enough."
I thought that my daughter might have no money to spend, so she came up with the idea of selling her braids.
Wang Xiuzhi couldn't help but feel distressed, "Such a nice braid, ouch."
"Mom, it's really okay. Don't you think I look good with short hair now?"
Wang Xiuzhi looked around and was immediately happy, "You know what, it's really pretty."
Seeing that she accepted it, Jiang Qingyue shook the piece of meat in his hand and handed it to her personally, "Mom, I bought this meat in the county today. You can keep it and cook it."
Wang Xiuzhi was only paying attention to her hair just now, and only now realized that she was here to deliver the meat.
"Why did you waste your money on meat, kid? Take it back and eat it with Zhou Zhiqing. We just had chicken two days ago."
Jiang Qingyue was anxious to go back, and quickly pushed it away, "It's already been delivered, I still have to hurry back to cook."
Seeing this, Wang Xiuzhi no longer refused and quickly took the cabbage and vermicelli from Jiang Weimin and put them into her basket.
"Take this dish back home and eat it."
Jiang Qingyue was worried that there were no dishes to go with pork at home, so she happily accepted it.
As soon as I got home, I saw Zhou Zhengting carrying a load of firewood into the yard.
The two people bumped into each other.
Jiang Qingyue took the initiative to greet him, "I just came back from the county and saw that you were not here. It turned out that you went to collect firewood."
Zhou Zhengting saw that her two braids were gone, replaced by short hair that reached her ears.
I couldn't help but be stunned, "You cut your hair?"
Jiang Qingyue hummed, not intending to hide it, "I went to the county to sell it."
Zhou Zhengting couldn't help but frown after hearing this, "Are you short of money?"
Jiang Qingyue chuckled, "Is there any need to ask this?"
A man who drinks a can of malted milk at eight dollars a day would definitely not understand how a poor woman like her would wish to make every penny count.
However, Jiang Qingyue didn't care much about his reaction.
I happily took out the things I bought and showed them off to him.
"Today I found some books and newspapers at the county scrap yard, and asked a friend at the supply and marketing cooperative to buy some pork."
"I'll make some paste later. If you have time, paste the walls at home. Our walls are too dirty and can't be cleaned no matter what."
"When you finish your work, I'll treat you to cabbage and pork dumplings."
Zhou Zhengting saw that she was talking excitedly all the time, and for some reason, he felt uncomfortable.
When she thought that the pork was bought with the money from selling her braids, she became even more gloomy.
"No need. How much did you spend on the pork? I'll give it to you."
Jiang Qingyue exclaimed, and quickly waved her hands, "Really, no need. I've used a lot of your good stuff before, so it's only right that I treat you to something good."
After saying that, Jiang Qingyue went to make paste happily.
After the paste was ready, Zhou Zhengting didn't say anything else and started to paste the walls all over the room.
Jiang Qingyue also washed her hands and scooped two spoonfuls of white flour to prepare the dough and roll out the dumpling skins.
Zhou Zhengting listened to her chopping meat while humming a little tune.
As for myself, I was pasting the wall while smelling the fragrance.
Before I knew it, my mood lightened up.
When the wall was pasted, Jiang Qingyue couldn't help but exclaimed, "Zhou Zhengting, is this still our home? It looks completely different, like a new house."
Zhou Zhengting couldn't help but laugh at how easily she was satisfied.
Even if this is a new house, who knows how strange it will be when she arrives in Beijing.
When Zhou Zhengting realized his thought, he couldn't help but be shocked.
Why did he have the idea of taking Jiang Qingyue back to Beijing? ! !
Jiang Qingyue had already served the dumplings. Seeing that he was still in a daze, she hurriedly called out, "Zhou Zhengting, what are you in a daze for? Come down quickly, wash your hands and eat the dumplings."
Zhou Zhengting hummed and quickly jumped off the kang in dejection.
Although the dumplings Jiang Qingyue made were simple, with only pork, cabbage and a little bit of salt, they tasted exceptionally delicious.
Zhou Zhengting performed a whole set in one breath.
Jiang Qingyue herself didn't expect that dumplings without any seasoning could taste so good.
It seems that the conditions are too bad.
It’s a rare opportunity to eat pork, and it always tastes especially delicious.
I couldn't help but sigh, "It would be nice if I could eat dumplings every day in the future."
Zhou Zhengting sneered, "You'll get tired of eating dumplings every day. Don't you have any other pursuits?"
Jiang Qingyue secretly rolled her eyes at him in her heart, she had so many suitors.
She has eaten much more delicious food than him.
It’s just that the conditions don’t allow it now.
After dinner, Jiang Qingyue carefully wiped the books she had bought today with a towel that had been wrung dry.
After wiping it clean, he smoothed out the damaged footer.
Only then did I start reading the book with a full sense of ritual.
Zhou Zhengting looked at her series of actions, very puzzled, "Are you reading a high school book?"
Jiang Qingyue hummed, "By the way, when you are free, let's take a look at it together. Just treat it as a review."
Zhou Zhengting was confused, "Why are you reading high school books?"
Jiang Qingyue thought for a moment, then turned around and looked at him seriously. "Today I heard someone in the county say that there is a possibility that the college entrance examination may be restored in the future. Anyway, I am not cut out for work, so I thought about giving studying a try, just in case I am cut out for it."
Zhou Zhengting frowned, "Who told you that? It's hearsay, how can you believe it?"
"Don't be so quick to deny it. Actually, if you think about it carefully, I think it's still possible."
"Don't say this when you go out."
"I know. I only told you, Zhou Zhengting. Think about it. If the college entrance examination is really resumed, your return to the city will be guaranteed."
Zhou Zhengting was stunned for a moment. Although it was hard to accept, his attitude softened. "We haven't even started yet. Let's talk about it later."
"No, let me watch it first, and when I'm done you can watch it later when you're free, just to kill time."
Seeing her serious and determined look, Zhou Zhengting couldn't help but laugh, "If I remember correctly, didn't you graduate from junior high school? Can you understand this high school book?"
Jiang Qingyue smiled meaningfully, "If I don't understand, I'll just ask you."
Just now she almost forgot that she was only a junior high school graduate. It seemed that she would have to find some questions to ask him from time to time in the future.
