Chapter 110 Buying a Bicycle

Today is over.

After school in the afternoon, Shen Ruoqing and Shen Hansong did not choose to live in the school, but went to No. 132 Haitang Road.

That's right, since you bought a house, you have to live in it. On the surface, Dalong generously allowed Shen Ruoqing and Shen Hansong to stay here. Old Mrs. Ji was worried about Shen Ruoqing and Shen Hansong living in the county town. Although Shen Xiangbei and his wife were there, they were both working, so how could they have so much time to take care of Shen Ruoqing, and they also had a little daughter, Shen Rongrong, to take care of.

After thinking it over, Old Mrs. Ji gave up her husband's money and moved to the county town. This way, she could also help the fourth son and his wife look after their children.

Of course Shen Xiangbei was happy to do so, and Su Jieru was also very happy. When they lived in their own home, it was Su's mother who did the cooking and taking care of the children. It was quite tiring for them to move out and take care of the children by themselves for a few days. It was great to have Grandma Ji come to help.

Old Mrs. Ji came over to clean up yesterday and swept the yard inside and out.

Old Lady Ji had already cooked a table of dishes, waiting for them to come back for dinner. After living in this blue brick courtyard, Old Lady Ji kept talking about how good this house was. The Shen family's house was still an adobe house, and looking at this blue brick courtyard, Old Lady Ji felt a little envious.

"This house made of blue bricks is solid and beautiful. I'll build one for my family in two years."

When Shen Ruoqing came back, the dishes had already been served.

Today, Su Jieru specially went to buy a pound of meat to celebrate. Then she fried an egg and two green vegetables, and the staple food was cornmeal buns. It's not that she couldn't afford white flour buns, but Shen Ruoqing liked cornmeal buns.

At the dinner table, Old Lady Ji asked Shen Ruoqing whether she was getting used to the school life.

After getting Shen Ruoqing's affirmative answer, Old Lady Ji said, "After dinner, let your fourth sister-in-law accompany you to the department store to take a look and use the bicycle ticket we have. The school is still some distance away from here, and riding a bicycle will be faster."

They had gone to look at bicycles before, but the women's bicycle they wanted was out of stock and would only be available this afternoon. Mrs. Ji was busy tending to the vegetable garden in the yard all day and had no time to look.

"Let's go together after dinner and take a look around to see if there is anything we need to buy for the house." Su Jieru said with a smile.

"Okay, the house is still short of an enamel basin."

After dinner, Old Mrs. Ji set off with Su Jieru.

Old Mrs. Ji doesn’t come to the department store often. She basically goes to the supply and marketing cooperatives.

After entering the department store, Mrs. Ji looked around and looked very happy. Enamel basins require industrial coupons, so Mrs. Ji only bought one. Then the others were not in a hurry and first visited the clothing area, and finally went to buy bicycles.

The bicycles in the county town include Phoenix, Fei Ge, and Yongjiu brands. However, Phoenix is ​​the only brand available for women, and there is no choice. In addition to a bicycle ticket, you have to pay an additional 168 yuan. Su Jieru also bought a bicycle, a Fei Ge brand, which is cheaper at 148 yuan.

The salesperson was not surprised to see this big family coming to buy bicycles. Bicycles are big items, so it is normal for a family to buy one. However, it is rare for them to buy two at once.

Old Mrs. Ji paid the money with a painful heart and happily pushed the bicycle away.

After buying a bicycle, you have to go to the bicycle store to hang a sign and get a license, which costs a few dollars. You can save these few dollars if you want, but if it is found to be an unlicensed black bike, it will be confiscated and you will have to pay a fine, so generally no one will save this money.

"My dear, come and try it. Is this bicycle easy to ride?"

"It's quite comfortable to ride." Shen Ruoqing rode the bicycle for two laps.

Shen Xiangbei also took Su Jieru for two walks.

Now their family can be considered as car owners.

While riding a bicycle, Shen Ruoqing saw Lin Chen and Wei Shuangshuang.

Lin Chen's finding of a job in the city was already known to everyone by Jiang Wenjing. It was just a temporary job, but Jiang Wenjing's smug look was unbearable to look at.

Shen Ruoqing greeted Wei Shuangshuang openly. Wei Shuangshuang noticed that Shen Ruoqing was not as enthusiastic as before. After all, she was with Lin Chen now. Lin Chen said many bad things about Shen Ruoqing in Wei Shuangshuang's ear.

Lin Chen is now a temporary worker in the food factory. He looked at Shen Ruoqing with a condescending look in his eyes: "Shen Ruoqing, Shuangshuang and I are dating now. I hope you will stop spreading bad rumors about me. I only like Shuangshuang."

Shen Ruoqing really wanted to slap him in the face. What was that look? Was he afraid that she would get involved with him? Seeing Wei Shuangshuang's distance from her, Shen Ruoqing knew without thinking that Lin Chen must have told her that he liked him and couldn't bear to see him do well, and that he slandered him because he couldn't get the love he wanted.

"What rumors? Lin Chen, I don't understand what you said. But I didn't expect that you just broke up with Sun Taohua and you started dating Sister Shuangshuang again. Hey, Taohua is also a poor person. She paid for your education, but in the end..."

"Shen Ruoqing! What nonsense are you talking about!" Lin Chen looked around, took Wei Shuangshuang's hand and wanted to leave.

"What nonsense can I say? I am telling the truth. Isn't that the case? I heard that Sun Taohua lent your family the food, and your family has not returned it yet."

Lin Chen's face flushed red. "Sun Taohua did something she shouldn't have done. Those things are just compensation to our family. If you don't know the truth, don't talk nonsense. Our family also asked the captain to make the decision on this matter. And it's all in the past. I don't want to make it public because I want to give the Sun family some dignity."

"Shen Ruoqing, I believe in Brother Lin Chen's character, so stop trying to sow discord here." Wei Shuangshuang said.

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

Looking at the two people's leaving backs, Shen Ruoqing shook his head.

Since Wei Shuangshuang is determined to do what she wants, there is nothing I can do to stop her.

He turned around and rode his new bicycle back to pick up Grandma Ji.

Liu Xinyi had never lived in a dormitory with so many people in her entire life.

A dormitory with six bunk beds, two by two, and three rows of cabinets opposite the single bed. There is no desk.

Yes, this is a room for twelve.

Because they arrived late, there were no seats left for Liu Xinyi to choose from, and the only one left was the upper bunk closest to the inside.

Since she arrived late, Liu Xinyi just greeted everyone and exchanged names, and that meant they knew each other.

Liu Xinyi was well dressed and she was generous with her gifts. At first everyone greeted her enthusiastically, but after learning that Liu Xinyi's family came from the countryside, their enthusiasm faded a little.

Of course Liu Xinyi noticed this change and explained with a smile that she had a brother who was a worker and that she was very favored at home.

Everyone took another look at Liu Xinyi's clothes and the candy in her hand, and then returned to their affectionate attitude.
