Zhang Xingrong choked. Wen Shize and the others had remembered. She'd just given them some food. As for medical care, aside from Elder He, none of the others had any serious illnesses. They'd only occasionally catch a cold or fever, so she'd just give them some medicine.
If I were to repay him, it would be Mr. He and the others.
Oh, I should have asked Mr. He for help earlier.
"Alright, alright!" Lan Sao said with a smile, "Just send some local specialties back home."
Zhang Hewu refused. He was the one who wanted to get married, and he had to pay for it himself. How could he get it for free? "No, Uncle Wen, I should pay for my wedding."
Wen Shi nodded and said, "Okay, then go to the department store and order it. But I have to remind you that they have watches and sewing machines, but not radios and bicycles. They were all taken away."
These things are hard to find in small towns and are very scarce. They're a little better in big cities, but still scarce. Anyway, they're out of stock this month, so if they want to order, they'll have to wait until next month.
"I can testify that it's gone from several department stores!" Secretary Chen nodded.
“…”
He really didn't know what to do about this. If money and tickets couldn't solve the problem, then what else could he do?
"Alright," Wen Shize waved his hand. "Since I'm your parent, I'll be responsible to the end. From now on, I can just send some local specialties over from time to time."
"Yes, yes," Lan Sao said with a smile, "Come on, have some fruit. I'll listen to Xiao Wen on this matter!"
So far, that was all there was to it, and the brother and sister remained silent.
Wen Shi changed the subject and asked about the orange farming. Both siblings were delighted by the topic, so Zhang Xingrong let her second brother speak. Zhang Hewu said he had a lot of experience in orange farming.
Mrs. Lan couldn't help laughing when she heard this. "Oh, it would be great if we could produce fruit. In this city, we have to queue up to buy fruit, and sometimes we can't even get any. It's not easy!"
Zhang Xingrong nodded: "It's really not easy. I'll send you some when I get back!"
"Okay, I'm waiting to eat oranges!"
They chatted for a while, and Wen Shi looked at the time and said, "Okay, you guys stay here today, and we'll go to the Su family to propose marriage tomorrow."
The brothers and sisters wanted to refuse, but Wen Shi didn't have time to listen to their excuses and went back to work. Lan Sao pulled them down.
"Just stay here for one night. There are plenty of rooms here, enough for you. You don't know, Xiao Wen is very busy with work and is often on business trips all year round. He's only home for half a year. This house is too boring for me to live in alone!"
Otherwise, she wouldn't have cultivated the land in front of and behind the house to plant vegetables. After planting vegetables, she felt bored and started planting flowers. In short, she was bored alone!
With such enthusiasm, the brother and sister couldn't leave even if they wanted to, so they decided to stay.
The few of them had nothing else to do, so they sat inside and chatted for a while, then went to tidy up the rooms. Since they were staying there tonight, they definitely needed to clean up two rooms. After that, they went out to tend to the garden and pick vegetables. When it was time to cook dinner, everyone cooked together again.
Time passed by so leisurely. However, Lan Sao was very happy. It was a rare time for the family to be lively. How could she not be happy?
After the meal was ready, it was almost time, so Wen Shizhe and Xiao Chen came back. Everyone ate and then watched TV together.
Televisions at that time were black and white and very small.
