Chapter 29 Separate Actions
Everyone heard it clearly.
But he quickly covered it up by saying he was having a meal.
Don't let Xiao Nuan find out and scare her.
[The best way is to make the Wang family mess up first, but how to remind them of Wang Po's handle? 】
Mrs. Song suddenly felt better: "I'm going to Lijia Village in the afternoon to find out something."
Song Yunuan's eyes lit up: "Grandma, what are you going to find out?"
"Wang Po is a bad person. She has offended many people in her hometown. She also spread rumors and caused a girl to jump into the river. She should feel guilty, but she didn't. She still ate and drank as usual. The girl's parents went to make trouble, and she said that the girl jumped into the river because she was guilty. In the end, the two families became enemies, and then she married to our village."
Song Yunuan felt sorry: "Then I have to sell shepherd's purse in the afternoon, so I can't go with grandma. You have to pay attention to safety."
Song Liang: "It's okay, I'll take your grandma to Lijia Village, I'll wait outside the village."
Mrs. Song took out a yuan from her pocket and gave it to Song Yunuan. She had to go to the county town in the afternoon and couldn't go empty-handed.
Song Yunuan: "Oh, my uncle gave me one dime, and my aunt gave me two dime, but it seems that they don't know each other."
Old Lady Song laughed.
She told Song Yunuan to go and rest, and to keep the money away, so that it won't be stolen by thieves after entering the city.
Little Asheng followed like a little tail: "Sister, I will keep you company and watch the big rats to prevent them from climbing onto the kang."
Song Yunuan pinched her brother's cheeks that were about to burst with baby fat: "What's the matter, do you want to go to the county town with me and grandpa?"
Asheng hugged Song Yunuan's thighs and acted coquettishly: "Sister is the best, Asheng likes sister the most."
She picked up her brother with her backhand and went to her bedroom.
The boy hugged her neck: "Sister, can I have another piece of biscuit?"
"Didn't I just finish my meal?"
The boy is easy to take care of. He is not picky about food and everything tastes delicious. Otherwise, he would not be fat and white. He
is also the youngest in the family, so no one would want to make him suffer.
"Sister, it's like this. Hu Zi can bite a biscuit into a crescent. I actually always wanted to try it, but I forgot about it when I was in a hurry to eat. I must try it this time." The boy
said seriously with a frown on his face.
At this time, they had arrived at the house. Song Yu Nuan put him on the kang and went to the cabinet to get biscuits. There were five biscuits, three milk candies and two pieces of meat.
This was given to Ah Sheng by Sun Zhiqing.
It was the old-fashioned biscuit with a faint wheat aroma.
Song Yunuan handed him the biscuit: "Come on, bite the crescent. If you don't know how, sister T will show you how."
The boy's eyes were like black grapes, watery. He looked at Song Yunuan eagerly, and after a few seconds, he still handed it over obediently.
Song Yunuan laughed and stopped teasing her brother. She just told him to remember to rinse his mouth after eating. 炚 She
also told him to eat a piece of milk candy on the way, and then he was not allowed to eat candy today.
In the yard, Old Man Song put more than a dozen backpacks in the shade at the foot of the wall.
From time to time, sprinkle some clean water on them.
Otherwise, they will wilt and lose their freshness.
However, this kind of trading behavior cannot be publicized, and the neighbors are all watching closely.
Although it is not recommended to treat it as speculation, it will still be a big trouble if it is known.
How to get out? 炚
Old man Song went to the brigade to borrow a horse carriage.
The brigade has regulations that horse carriages can be borrowed, but you have to pay for it, fifty cents per use, and you have to pay for your own fodder. The time is one day, not overnight, and you have to pay for it if it is damaged.
Fifty cents, in those days, in Erdaohe Village, was enough for soy sauce and salt for a month, or to buy twenty-five boxes of matches, and if you want to eat meat, you can also buy six taels of meat.
Anyway, the money in 1980 was really money.
The carriage hurried back to the Song family. After entering the yard, a pile of green grass was thrown to the red horse, and then Old Man Song began to work.
The fender of the big carriage was installed, and the four sides were surrounded by willow branches. The old grandson next door saw Old Man Song loading dry firewood into the carriage, and shouted across the fence: "This is to send firewood to your youngest son again."
Old Man Song also shouted: "Yeah, the day before yesterday, he came to say that there was no firewood at home, so I sent some to him."
"My children are all debts!"
"That's right!"
After the old grandson left, Old Man Song loaded all the shepherd's purse baskets into the carriage and covered them with dry branches. The wicker baskets woven by Old Man Song all had lids, so there was no need to cover them specially.
When Song Yunan came out of the house, Old Man Song had already loaded the car.
From the outside, it looked like he had just loaded it with firewood.
Old Man Song whispered to Song Yunan that he had also loaded a few small baskets of shepherd's purse and gave some to the conductor, the driver, Sister Zhao who was helping to go to the Women's Federation, and the warehouse manager of the fertilizer factory.
Song Yunan's eyes sparkled: "Grandpa, you are so thoughtful." The
old man was really considerate.
"We'll be leaving soon. We might be back late, so don't wear too little."
Song Yu Nuan responded while praising: "This little basket is so pretty, small and exquisite, it can be used as a basket for buying vegetables. Grandpa, did you weave it all?"
"I did. There are many red willows in our village, so it's a good time to weave it."
The old man has good craftsmanship. Not only is it tight and delicate, but the shape is also beautiful.
However, there are many people here who can weave baskets.
The carriage was quickly organized. 炚
Ah Sheng woke up and didn't see his sister. He thought they had left, so he burst into tears.
Hearing the crying, Song Yu Nuan hurriedly opened the window: "Why are you crying? Did you have a nightmare?"
Song Mingsheng: ...
He not only saw his sister, but also saw the red horse leisurely grazing in the yard.
The little guy wiped his tears, climbed down the kang vaguely, put on his shoes, and ran out.
Song Yu Nuan grabbed him and went back to the room to find clothes and a hat for him. She also found that her brother didn't have many clothes, and they seemed to be altered clothes from adults.
There was a pair of pants with a big patch on the buttocks. 炚
But now it is almost like this.
After the grandfather, grandson and three people arrived at the designated place, the bus came soon.
They parked at the corner of the hillside.
Sister Niu looked at the shepherd's purse and liked it very much. She told Song Yunuan that they should go to the city now, and the carriage should follow behind the bus.
Old Song felt that his heart, which was hanging in his throat, seemed to have fallen halfway, and the remaining half depended on whether the canteen of the guesthouse was satisfied.
Song Yunuan took his brother on the bus.
She brought up the shepherd's purse for Sister Niu and the driver, one small basket for each person: "I washed it with the well water at home and picked it dry. In this season, we just want to eat fresh food."炚The shepherd's
purse was picked and washed with cool water, and it was green and tender.
Sister Niu smiled happily: "There are so many, I can make dumplings. Oh, this small basket is so beautiful."
"My grandfather's craftsmanship, there is a lid on it, I can buy vegetables with it."
"The old man has really skillful hands."
Sister Niu thanked the old man sincerely, thought about it, and asked Song Yunuan: "Who is the captain Song of Erdaohe Village to you?" "
...My father."
"Sister, I want to tell you something." Sister Niu said with a serious look.炚
