After having enough tea and noodles, Jiang Wanying started working again and finished several finished products by noon.
She stretched and looked at the sun coming out. Although the sun was not very strong, it made her feel a little warm.
After packing her things, Jiang Wanying prepared to go into the city. Just as she was about to leave, she ran into Xu Hongping, who had rushed home to cook for her. "Where are you going?"
"I need to go into town." Jiang Wanying was afraid she would worry, so she made up an excuse. "There are two books I didn't buy last time. The bookstore owner said they wouldn't be available until a few days later. I thought I could buy them now, so it should be okay."
"I'm worried about you being alone! Why don't you let me go with you? I'll ask the village chief for leave later."
Jiang Wanying held her back, "No, no! I... I've made an appointment with someone else! He's taking me out!"
"Who? Who brought you here?"
Jiang Wanying's first thought was Lu Yanchuan, and she blurted out, "Uncle Lu! He just happened to be going to the city, so he took me with him!"
You can't blame her for talking about Lu Yanchuan. After all, apart from him, her aunt probably wouldn't trust anyone else to take her into the city.
Hearing that it was Lu Yanchuan, Xu Hongping felt relieved. "Xiao Lu will take you out too, that's fine. But he was the one who took you out last time. Although he's a good person, we can't always take advantage of him."
As she spoke, she took out a handkerchief from her pocket, which contained some food coupons, cloth coupons and change, including a few Great Unity banknotes.
Xu Hongping took out a big unity note and stuffed it into Jiang Wanying's hand. "Take this money carefully. Apart from buying books, you can spend the rest as you see fit. I see Xiao Lu likes to smoke, so you can buy him a pack of cigarettes when you are free, as a thank you."
You have to know that in the 1970s, one Big Unity ticket was equivalent to half a month's salary for ordinary people!
It can be seen that Xu Hongping is really willing to spend money on Jiang Wanying.
The original owner had spent all his money on Fang Jiaxing, so he had no savings at all. Although Jiang Wanying had money in her space, she couldn't spend it all. Now she was more than happy to have ten dollars in her pocket.
She was not an ungrateful person. Whenever she made money from selling clothes, she would definitely return it to her aunt.
Jiang Wanting didn't act pretentiously. If she refused, Xu Hongping would definitely force it on her. This saved her the trouble of pushing it back and forth. She put the money in the inside pocket of her coat and patted her chest. "Thank you, aunt! I'll take it then!"
"Come back soon!"
If I go from the village to the city, sell clothes and return to the village, I will probably not be back until midnight.
Jiang Wanying felt a little regretful that she should have come back tomorrow morning, but she had already said it, and she couldn't back out, lest her aunt become suspicious again.
Jiang Wanying was just using Lu Yanchuan as an excuse. She was planning to borrow a bicycle. The 258-bar bicycle that Fang Jiaxing rode when they got married was bought by her third uncle. It was taken away by her eldest uncle when he rode it to the production team a while ago and he wanted to borrow it for a while.
There is no car at the moment, and only Li Hu's family in the village has bought one.
But she was not familiar with Li Hu. He had a younger sister, Li Wei, who used to be good friends with the original owner when they were young. Later, after the original owner became close to Ye Jiao and other educated youths who came to the village, they broke up.
The reason was that Li Wei had opposed Jiang Wanying's liking for Fang Jiaxing and even advised her to stay away from Fang Jiaxing.
The original owner was obsessed with love and was instigated by Ye Jiao and others. She thought Li Wei was jealous of her and couldn't stand her doing well, so she broke up with Li Wei.
"Love-sickness can cause a lot of harm! It seems that Li Wei must know some secrets about Fang Jiaxing, otherwise why would she go to such lengths to break up with the original owner and oppose it!" Jiang Wanying made an analysis.
System: [Fang Jiaxing is the male protagonist after all, who hasn't ordered a secret?]
Jiang Wanying recalled the Fang family's mysterious box and immediately became excited. "I want to see what secrets the Fang family has!"
