Fortunately, they arrived early and there were still rooms available for selection. Because the two younger sons had to pee at night, Huang Yuelan specifically asked for a room that was close to the bathroom and had a window. After booking the room, Huang Yuelan took everyone to buy New Year's goods.
The supply and marketing cooperative in the county town is also called a department store. The items and varieties inside are much richer than those in the township.
The department store in the county town is taller than the government building. It is a local landmark and very famous.
As soon as the children walked into the department store, their eyes immediately became bright and they were attracted by the colorful world in front of them. After all, they had been staying in the mountains for many years, and all they saw were mountains. They had never seen such a charming sight.
Although the brothers were born in remote mountain areas and did not grow up in the county town, they inherited their parents' good genes and each of them looks better than the children in the city.
The cloths sold in the county department store not only have a variety of patterns and colors, but are also of better quality. Huang Yuelan bought some cloth first.
The cloth coupons were also sent back by Wang Jianguo. I don’t know how he got them, but he knew that children needed cloth coupons for clothing, so he often sent them back along with other things.
After buying the cloth, Huang Yuelan went to the candy stall.
The children were not very excited about buying cloth just now, but now they are very excited about buying candies and snacks. They keep pointing and saying they want this and that, and they seem to be very opinionated.
I bought a lot of things that the children liked to eat, including peach cakes, snacks, melon seeds, peanuts, etc.
Seeing that their mother had bought so many delicious snacks, the children were so happy that they almost jumped up and down on the spot. But there was no place to jump because there were too many people.
After buying the snacks, I went to buy a few bowls. This is a local custom. No matter what, you have to buy a few new bowls during the Chinese New Year, which means that the family will prosper in the future.
Nowadays, living conditions and medical conditions are poor, and it is not easy to raise children. In addition to starvation and freezing to death, there are also deaths from illness, so the villagers use this simple way to express a beautiful hope.
I hope all the children in my family can be healthy and safe.
I also took the children to buy some vegetables and other supplies, and finally the basket was full.
Although the basket was full, Huang Yuelan calculated that she had spent less than fifty yuan in total.
Huang Yuelan sighed, prices are so cheap nowadays!
What can you buy for the New Year with 50 yuan in the future? Not to mention 10 kilograms of eggs, you can't even buy 5 kilograms of meat.
But now, I not only bought cloth, tableware and chopsticks, but also candies, snacks, meat and vegetables, and many other things.
Huang Yuelan was quite generous with her money. After all, Wang Jianguo sent her money every month, so she was not short of money.
Many people would like to split a dime into eight pieces and count every penny. They are even more stingy when buying things. They will not buy new clothes for several years. They will change the old clothes of adults into children's clothes. The eldest child will wear them, the second child will wear them, the second child will pass them on to the third child, the third child will pass them on to the fourth child...
By the end, the clothes were torn to pieces, and some children even had nothing to wear and had to go about naked.
Thinking of this, Wang Aiguo and his friends felt particularly grateful to be their parents' children.
Although they were only five or six years old, these children were very smart. When they saw other children in the village wearing tattered clothes or even naked, they felt that although their clothes were not considered good, they were still better than having nothing at all.
Besides, their father is an officer and their mother is always very kind to them, so they feel that they live a very happy life.
Although their family is not wealthy, in their hearts, their parents will always be the best people in the world.
After buying the things, Huang Yuelan took the children back to the supply and marketing cooperative and put the things down.
After running for several hours, Huang Yuelan felt sore on the soles of her feet, but the children didn't look tired at all. They even looked out of the window, curious about the outside world.
"Wow! There's a big truck over there!"
"Wow, a bicycle!"
"Wow, another bicycle!"
Nowadays bicycles can be used as buses, but their production team only had one, so the children were very excited to see the bicycles.
