Chapter 24, Sister Lixia
That’s right, what was stolen were not only the goods, but also the cars. This is why the boss is so anxious. It’s not a big deal to lose just the goods, the money can be earned back in a few months, but when the cars are taken away, that’s the team’s job, how can it be lost?
Fortunately, the drivers were all fine. They were knocked unconscious and thrown on the roadside by those people, but were eventually rescued.
After hearing what He Junqi said, everyone in the team was about to cry. There were only seven or eight cars in the whole team, but three of them were lost at once. If they could not be found, at least nine people would lose their jobs.
Driving is a hard job, but you can earn a lot, about a hundred yuan a month, which is not something everyone can earn.
Those who work in factories only make about 30 yuan a month, and the salary is calculated based on length of service, otherwise the salary is even lower.
"What should we do? If the car can't be found, all of us will have to go home and live off our savings." The people together were all in a very depressed mood.
But these are not something He Junqi can control.
If it really can't be found, the boss will fire him first.
"Let's go to the Public Security Bureau. I hope they have some clues." He Junqi never expected that he would face unemployment right after getting married.
But if I give all my money to my wife, how will my family live in the future?
He was also overwhelmed.
···
After a hearty meal, Mei Xue took a piece of cloth and went to Aunt Mei Lian's house the next day. She knew that Aunt Mei Lian's grandson was at home, so Mei Xue did not go empty-handed and brought a few pieces of beef jerky as a gift.
Mei Xue was reluctant at first. She would rather give some cloth to make clothes for the child than give the dried meat.
But Grandma He was reluctant to part with the cloth, so she took a few pieces from Mei Xue and asked her to give them to Aunt Meilian.
When Mei Xue was about to reach Aunt Meilian's house, Grandma He suddenly remembered that the kid was only three months old and had no reason to eat dried meat.
"It's over. This jerky is given away for nothing."
Lovely grandma He.
Mei Xue had thought of this of course, but she just liked playing with her grandma like this, which might warm her heart.
"Is Aunt Meilian home?" Seeing that the courtyard gate was not closed, Mei Xue did not go in directly, but called twice outside the door.
"At home, at home, is Xiaoxue here? Come in quickly, the door is not closed." Aunt Meilian was changing the baby's diaper, and Lixia went to the toilet.
Let Xiaoxue in when you hear the sound.
After Mei Xue came in and just walked to the door of the main hall, she met Lixia who came out from behind. Seeing her graceful appearance, Mei Xue knew who this person was.
"Hello, Sister Lixia." Mei Xue took the initiative to greet her.
It was the first time that Lixia met Xiaoxue from her third grandmother's family. She had heard her mother mention her countless times in the past two days.
As soon as she saw her, Lixia fell in love with this gentle and well-mannered girl. She must have taken good care of herself recently, with a fair complexion and neatly dressed.
"You must be Xiaoxue, come in quickly. I've heard my mother talking about you every day these past few days, saying that you are capable." Lixia is a lively person, and when they met, she acted like old friends, which made it hard to dislike her.
Mei Xue smiled back and followed Lixia in without saying much.
There are two rooms on both sides of the main hall. Apparently, that's where Aunt Meilian and Sister Lixia live.
After the child's diaper was changed, Aunt Meilian carried the child to the door of the room and said to Meixue with a smile, "Xiaoxue is here, come in."
The rooms are all covered with wooden floors and are kept very clean by the owner.
The houses are all wooden houses. The floors inside are not directly stepped on the ground, but partitioned. The light red wooden floors are very eye-catching.
It was different from the room she and her grandmother lived in. Her grandmother's room didn't have this partition. The floor was made of hand-leveled mud. It was very smooth, but if it got wet it would ruin the cleanliness.
"Aunt Meilian, your house is so clean." Mei Xue really likes this wooden floor.
"How can it be clean? It's not as clean as my Third Aunt, who is famous for her love of cleanliness." Aunt Meilian smiled and joked, "You are looking at the cleanness of this wooden floor.
If you like, you can separate them. There is plenty of wood on the mountain. When An Ze comes back, ask him to cut some and keep them at home.
When the time comes, after it has been dried, you can hire a carpenter to make it. If you have tung oil at home, you can apply two layers of tung oil on the board to prevent insects and make it bright. "
Mei Xue was really tempted, but she never thought of waiting for others to do it. If she liked it, of course she would do it herself, and chopping wood didn't take much effort.
"Well, it's quite simple. I'll go home and ask grandma." This was the first time she went to someone else's home since she came to this world.
The sewing machine is placed in the room where Lixia lives now. This was also the room where Lixia lived before she got married.
As soon as I came in, there was a smell, a strong smell of milk and urine.
I think it's caused by the children eating, drinking, defecating and urinating in the house, but these smells really have a hint of the fragrance of children. Anyway, Mei Xue likes it very much.
"Your grandma loves you, she will definitely agree." Aunt Meilian can see this very clearly. She could tell from the beef she bought yesterday how much Aunt San likes this granddaughter-in-law.
"Come on, Lixia, take care of the child yourself for a while. I'll help Meixue measure the cloth."
Soon, Aunt Meilian started to work. These things were really difficult for Mei Xue.
She was of no help at all and was finally pushed aside by Aunt Meilian.
"Haha, you can't do it either. I tell you, I can't do it either." After Lixia coaxed the child to sleep, she sat down with Mei Xue and the two of them whispered to each other.
"I don't understand." Mei Xue didn't understand anything about what it meant by wide in front and narrow in the back, or split sleeves, etc.
"It's okay if you don't understand. Leave it to my mom. My mom is good at it. The clothes she makes are very comfortable to wear and won't cut into the flesh." After saying that, she took out her own child's clothes and said, "Look, this is made for babies. It's very comfortable."
Children's clothes are all made of cotton, the same material as the cloth that Mei Xue brought back, and very comfortable.
"Indeed, Aunt Meilian has really skillful hands." Mei Xue said with envy.
"Do you want to learn?" Lixia asked.
Mei Xue quickly shook her head, "Forget it, I definitely can't learn it." You can hold a knife, but forget about holding a needle. Don't let your master get angry to death.
"Then don't learn it. Nowadays, it's fashionable to buy clothes to wear. You made these clothes for your third grandmother, right? I tell you, don't buy fabrics from now on. Go to the supply and marketing cooperative to buy them. The ready-made clothes there are so beautiful."
Lixia was spreading knowledge about the county to Meixue.
Mei Xue also listened very seriously, and her heart, which had been touched before, began to beat again.
"Those clothes are not as comfortable as the ones I make myself." Of course she had also looked at them. She had no idea what materials those clothes were made of. They were not as comfortable as cotton at all.
"That's true. Those are new materials and quite expensive, but I also think these cotton ones are comfortable to wear." Especially in summer, Lixia loves to wear the clothes her mother makes for her.
Even her mother-in-law likes it very much.
