Yao Qiyue failed to change her train ticket after all.
There are a lot of things to do in Nancheng, and she also has to arrange her own house and work.
Yao Qiuyue thought about it for a while and decided to leave her job to Jiang Mei, on the condition that Jiang Mei help her look after her house.
If Jiang's mother still had her eyes on her house, Jiang Mei would secretly write a letter to inform her.
Jiang Ye packed a bunch of things in large and small bags, while Yao Qiyue packed two enamel pots hanging on a hemp rope on a navy blue package.
"Who's going to carry this package?"
Jiang Ye patted his chest and said, "Of course it's me. You just need to hold Xiaobao when the time comes."
Yao Qiyue was a little skeptical, but did not reject Jiang Ye's proposal.
It’s true that Jiang Ye’s health is not very good, and he has been repeatedly injured by external factors.
Yao Qiyue sometimes wanted to find someone to get rid of Jiang Ye's bad luck.
Doctor Zhao knew that Jiang Ye was going to continue his studies, so he happily came to the Yao family with some supplements.
As soon as I entered the yard, I saw two people carrying large and small bags of things at their feet.
"Hey, you two are home?"
"Isn't it tomorrow's train ticket? Why are you already packed?"
When Yao Qiyue saw Dr. Zhao coming, she moved the package basket on the ground to another place.
"Doctor Zhao, don't we have to pack our things in advance?"
"It will be too late to clean up tomorrow."
Doctor Zhao walked into the room familiarly, and Jiang Ye poured water and made tea for him.
Dr. Zhao waved his hands repeatedly to refuse and pointed at Jiang Ye and Yao Qiyue.
"Don't be busy, you two. I'll just sit for a while and then leave."
"Aren't you going to Jing City tomorrow? Jiang Ye's body hasn't recovered well yet. Here's some milk powder. Xiaobao should drink some, and Jiang Ye should drink some too. Milk is good stuff. It can supplement nutrition and calcium."
Only then did Yao Qiyue notice that what Dr. Zhao was holding was actually milk powder.
Milk powder is not easy to buy, so many people ask others to buy it for them in department stores in big cities.
The health center's logistics station occasionally has it, but given Dr. Zhao's personality, he wouldn't abuse his power for personal gain. It's hard to say how much effort he had to put in to buy these two bags of milk powder.
Jiang Ye felt embarrassed to accept Doctor Zhao's things. He refused, "Doctor Zhao, you take good care of me. I can't accept this milk powder anymore."
Doctor Zhao looked at Jiang Ye with a surprised expression: "Oh, I see. You just dislike the bitterness of the medicine I usually prescribe for you, so you don't want my medicine, right?"
Jiang Ye looked at Dr. Zhao who started to act like a child and smiled helplessly.
"Doctor Zhao, you know, I'm very grateful for your treatment. If you hadn't insisted, I might have died a long time ago."
"I really feel that I have always been under your care, and I am embarrassed to ask for your things again."
Doctor Zhao said coldly: "Oh, I see. You only regard me as a doctor, not a friend."
"Okay, I'll take my gift and leave now."
Jiang Ye: "???"
He looked at Dr. Zhao in confusion as he left without saying anything.
“Hahahahahaha…”
Yao Qiyue couldn't help laughing out loud for a moment.
"Doctor Zhao, please don't scare him."
"Thank you for the milk powder. I wanted to buy it but couldn't find it yet."
"It's still early, let's have lunch together."
When Dr. Zhao heard that Yao Qiyue was going to prepare lunch, he reluctantly sat back down and looked at Jiang Ye as if he was looking at a scumbag.
Jiang Ye felt that it would snow in June and he died unjustly.
Jiang Mei has been learning how to cut pork from Yao Qiyue these days, and her arms have become a lot thicker.
She took all her pocket money and bought some oranges for Xiaobao, which amounted to 25 cents.
"Sister-in-law, are you home?"
If Jiang Mei wants to go to work, it will take at least half a year, and then she can go to work after graduating from junior high school.
For the past six months, the pork stall was entrusted to Wang Dazhuang, and the salary also belonged to Wang Dazhuang, so at least Yao Qiyue could keep her job.
"Yes, why are you here today? There are no classes at school?"
Jiang Mei is now in the third year of junior high school. Her academic performance is not very good and she is not sure whether she can be admitted to high school. She is grateful that Yao Qiyue arranged a job for her.
Although this job was not as decent as she imagined.
"Sister-in-law, I've asked for leave. Aren't you leaving tomorrow? I came here to see you off."
"These are the oranges I bought for Xiaobao. Take them with you to eat on the train."
Yao Qiyue didn't bother to be polite with Jiang Mei. What she left for Jiang Mei was not just a simple job, but an opportunity to ensure that she would not have to go to the countryside in the future.
Yao Qiuyue grew up in modern society and had never suffered any hardship. She could not understand what it was like to receive re-education from middle and lower-class poor peasants as described in books.
"Come in and stay for a while. We'll have lunch here."
Not long after Jiang Mei entered the house, Wang Dazhuang came in carrying two pieces of pork belly and a grass carp.
"Comrade Yao, today's pork belly is a nice mix of fat and lean. I thought I'd bring you some to try."
Yao Qiyue's face was almost frozen from smiling today. Looking at the extra flesh on her hands, she hurriedly welcomed Wang Dazhuang into the house.
"Please come inside and have a seat. We can have a simple lunch here at noon. Thank you for taking care of me during this time."
Yao Qiyue had a lot of things to do during those days, and being late and leaving early was common, but Wang Dazhuang turned a blind eye. When the pork stall was empty, Wang Dazhuang even went to help watch the stall, which was considered very caring for Yao Qiyue.
"How can I have you taking care of me? I got this job thanks to you and earned more than half a year's salary."
Yao Qiyue: "I'm also asking for your help."
Jiang Ye couldn't leave the room for a while, and Dr. Zhao had nothing to talk about with the half-grown child, so Jiang Ye had no choice but to accompany him.
Jiang Mei was having fun playing with Xiao Bao on the bed. She folded a paper frog for Xiao Bao, which could jump up when pressed. There was no communication barrier between the aunt and niece, and Xiao Bao responded to whatever Jiang Mei said.
Wang Dazhuang walked into the room and saw the bustling scene: "Oh, I'm late."
Jiang Ye skillfully asked Wang Dazhuang to sit on a chair and poured him some tea: "It's never too late for you to come. Stay and have a simple meal."
Wang Dazhuang took the cup from Jiang Ye and said, "Then I won't be polite."
The mornings and evenings in autumn are cooler, but the daylight hours are still quite long. It is only around 9:30 in the morning, and the sun is shining down. Yao Qiyue feels warm standing in the yard.
This was the first time she felt a sense of excitement in this strange era.
This feeling didn't seem to bother her, so she slowly walked into the kitchen, raised her eyes and squinted at the rising sun in the morning.
Well, it's a bit dazzling.
All the tools in the kitchen were packed up and placed in the corner. Only the rice and flour for the past two days were left in the rice jar, and the rest were put into the rice bag.
Fortunately, diesel, salt and other items are still placed outside.
Yao Qiuyue skillfully removed the scales of the fish and cleaned the internal organs.
The fish Wang Dazhuang brought looked to be at least three and a half pounds.
