Chapter 25 Preparing New Year's Goods
Mi Xia: "Please help me collect some high-end tobacco and alcohol stamps with the theme of "The Country is Red". I want as many as I can get. You decide the price. My wife likes this stamp."
The whole country is red, so we still have to collect it. After all, one of them will be worth a million in the future.
Zhang Xiaoyu curled his lips, obviously very happy, "Okay, I'll send it to you after I receive it."
Mi Xia: "No, just wait for me to come and get it next time."
After waiting for a while, Zhang Xiaoyu's younger brother whispered a few words in his ear.
Zhang Xiaoyu handed a stack of bills to Mi Xia. She didn't count them and pretended to put them in her pocket, but the money was actually already in the space.
Afterwards, I rode my bike back home. While preparing the supplies, I also prepared the lunch dishes for the family.
A fish, a piece of meat, an apple, and some beef jerky to take home as snacks for the children.
Mi Xia: "Sister-in-law, I'm back."
Zhang Hongxia: "I was just about to go out to buy groceries when you came back."
"Hey, why are you riding a bike back here? Did you borrow it from someone else?"
Mi Xia: "Sister-in-law, I just bought it. A used car doesn't require a ticket and is cheaper, so I bought it for 100 yuan. I'm afraid I'll miss this good opportunity if I miss it."
Zhang Hongxia looked at Mi Xia embarrassedly: "Sister, I will talk to your brother tonight and ask him to walk to work tomorrow. It's not far, so he just needs to get up a little earlier."
"You ride the bike you bought every day, and it's inconvenient for you to do anything. Return it, it's a waste of money."
Mi Xia deliberately scowled: "Sister-in-law, what are you talking about? That bike was originally for my brother to ride. Aren't we a family? Why do you always say these things?"
Mi Xia knew why Zhang Hongxia was like this, but she still felt uncomfortable.
Zhang Hongxia saw that Mi Xia was unhappy, and she became anxious: "Miss Xiao is right, I won't say it again in the future."
Mi Xia then curled the corners of her lips. The aunt and sister-in-law cooked lunch together. Zhang Hongxia steamed the rice and Mi Xia fried the vegetables. Soon, two dishes and a soup were served on the table.
After dinner, "Sister-in-law, you can use this car when you go out to buy groceries. I don't have anything to do. If you have anything to do, I'll wait for you to come back."
"Call me when you go shopping next time. I'll take care of the two kids. By the way, I'll take you to that alley tomorrow at noon. If the grocery store doesn't have what you want, you can go over there and have a look."
Zhang Hongxia nodded to show that she understood. The two of them cleaned up the tables, chairs, dishes and chopsticks. The school was not far from their home, so the children went to school by themselves.
In the yard, Zhang Hongxia has planted seasonal vegetables, and the greens she eats now are grown by herself.
Mi Xia: "Sister-in-law, I brought back some wool. Can you knit a sweater?"
Zhang Hongxia felt that her younger sister was really omnipotent, and now she had even got the wool back.
"Yes, sister. To be honest, I haven't knitted a sweater since I married your brother. The only time I knitted one for your younger brother was when I was at my mother's house." Zhang Hongxia recalled.
"Who are you going to knit a sweater for? Should I teach you or should I help you knit it?"
Mi Xia blushed: "To weave a dress for Mo Haoyue, I need both your help and your teaching."
"Sister-in-law, the wool we bought this time is not enough. Please buy some next time. These are all we have." Mi Xia handed the bag in her hand to Zhang Hongxia.
Zhang Hongxia: "I'll knit two of these for my sister, and I can knit a sweater for you with the light-colored ones."
Mi Xia: "Sister-in-law, just knit one suit for Mo Haoyue. You can knit the rest for anyone else. If there are none left, I will bring back the yarn next time and knit them for them."
Zhang Hongxia didn't know how to thank Mi Xia anymore. Ever since she returned to her parents' home, their family's life has been going like a rocket, getting better and better. She couldn't even imagine such a life before.
Forget it, Xiaomei didn't like to hear these words, so she smiled at Mi Xia.
Zhang Hongxia taught Mi Xia seriously, and Mi Xia studied very hard, but it took her two months to finish knitting this sweater.
I went to the space and got some long-lasting food and sent it to Mo Haoyue.
Mi Xia has been knitting sweaters for the past two months. She felt like vomiting from all the knitting. She regretted countless times why she didn't bring two sets of thermal underwear for Mo Haoyue when he left.
She didn't dare to mail it, as she didn't know if there was any thermal underwear available.
"Captain, there is your package letter. I brought it back for you."
Although he tried to restrain himself, he couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth. It must be sent by his wife, so he hurried forward and said, "Give it to me."
The soldier under Mo Haoyue joked: "When I saw the commander was so anxious, I knew it must be my sister-in-law's package."
Mo Haoyue usually treated them like brothers, so the soldiers under his command dared to tease him.
Mo Haoyue's eyes were full of smiles: "Wife, don't you just want to eat the beef sauce made by my wife?"
After saying that, he opened the package, took out two bottles and handed them to them, then turned around and walked towards the dormitory impatiently.
He missed his wife, even if he couldn't see her, it would be good to read her letter.
Time flies, and before we know it, the Chinese New Year is almost here. It is already the eighth day of the twelfth lunar month, and we have to eat Laba porridge every day.
Zhang Hongxia got up before dawn to cook, fearing that the children would be late.
Mo Haoyue couldn't come back for the New Year because he was on a mission. Although the family couldn't reunite this year, she was still very happy because this was her first New Year here.
Mi Xia is still very busy these days. She is busy meeting Zhang Xiaoyu, busy studying on her own, busy knitting sweaters, and also has to find time to visit Grandma Song's house.
They sent supplies to Grandma Song. She no longer accepts anything from them, but she wanted the ring before, and later she simply developed feelings for them.
In the days before the New Year, Mi Xia pretended to go out to buy groceries every morning, but in fact she was taking some food home from the space. She took a little every day, and by the 28th day of the twelfth lunar month, there was a lot of food piled up at home.
Fortunately, the weather is cold, otherwise all these things would definitely stink.
Zhang Hongxia had taken her family back to her parents' home a long time ago, and Xia Xia was taken with her. This time she brought 20 yuan each of rice and noodles, pork, and ten yuan of dried noodles.
People in the village said that Zhang Hongxia had found a good in-law family, otherwise, even if the family was well-off, they would not let her bring so many things home.
Because Zhang Hongxia brought so many things back, her mother couldn't stop smiling and praised Mi Qiu whenever she saw her.
Mi Xia was the only one at home now, which made things convenient for Zhang Yu. The Chinese New Year was just two days away, and supplies were particularly scarce during this period. No matter how much Mi Xia took out, she had to sell it.
So these days, Mi Xia came to deliver supplies every few days. Now she has more than 18,000 yuan in her hand. Even if she goes to Kyoto now, she is not in a hurry.
"Boom boom boom."
Mi Xia knocked twice before the door opened from the inside.
"I guess you are about to come, come in quickly." Zhang Xiaoyu smiled like a flower.
I have to say, Mi Xia was very happy looking at 껩.
"I have collected a lot of cigarettes and alcohol these days, but I have only collected three stamps with the theme of "The Whole Country is Red". Why are these stamps so difficult to collect?" Zhang Xiaoyu said depressedly.
At first, his brother said that it was difficult to receive these stamps. He only received one in two months. He did not believe it and thought that the person in charge was deceiving him. Later, he went to get it himself and received two. Then he had to believe it.
