"Mom, what did you buy?" Tang Simeng immediately cooperated and shouted in surprise.
Qin Zijin rubbed her head and said, "They are all outside. Your Uncle Daniu is still waiting for us to unload the goods. Come on, come with me to move the things."
After saying that, he took Tang Ruixuan and Tang Simeng out.
Zhao Daniu was waiting for Qin Zijin at the door. When he saw her coming out, he smiled and walked over to her. "Sister-in-law, have you finished your housework? I'll move your things in for you. Where do you plan to put them?"
"Brother Daniu, I'm really sorry to trouble you. Let's move together. I have already packed the room. Just follow me." Qin Zijin naturally would not be polite to Zhao Daniu.
After Tang Aiguo came back, he also joined the army of people moving goods.
There are quite a lot of things on the ox cart.
Qin Zijin bought all kinds of food.
And some New Year's goods that can be used during the Chinese New Year.
Melon seeds, peanuts, candies, and biscuits were all bought in big bags.
If the fruit could be stored for a short time, Qin Zijin would even want to bring some back.
"Oh, you bought so many things? Uncle Aiguo, has your family become rich?" The people here were busy unloading the goods. People who passed by the Tang family's door and saw it couldn't help but feel jealous.
Tang Aiguo just smiled and ignored it.
It took more than half an hour to move all the things.
Qin Zijin forced Zhao Daniu to drink water at home and stuffed a lot of things for him to take back.
Zhao Daniu couldn't refuse, so he had to take his things and drive the ox cart back home.
It made many people jealous.
After all, that bag of candy is worth a lot of money.
In the supply and marketing cooperative, a big bag of milk candy would cost more than ten yuan.
The bag that Qin Zijin gave to Zhao Daniu probably weighed about one kilogram.
A pound of milk candy costs two or three yuan at the cheapest.
The more expensive ones can even be sold for five or six yuan.
If we don’t have any money at home, we won’t be able to afford such expensive food.
"You bought so many things?" After Tang Aiguo finished moving the things, he couldn't help but widen his eyes as he looked at the various things piled up in the house.
"Dad, didn't you say that the drought this year is unusual? It hasn't rained for more than two months. I guess it will be very dry in the spring. I was afraid of something happening, so I bought more food. Anyway, food is not that expensive." Qin Zijin explained with a smile.
Tang Aiguo nodded. "You're right. We really need to buy more. We probably don't have enough here. If we can't plant crops in the spring, the harvest this year will be terrible. That's going to be a disaster."
Tang Aiguo, who had experienced the Great Famine, understood best how terrible food shortage was.
We were very hungry at that time, but we even had to dig up the soil to eat, and tree roots and bark were already excellent food.
Moreover, every severe drought is followed by a flood, so it is the right thing to do to prepare for a rainy day.
"The ox cart can't carry so much anymore. Let's go again in a few days." Qin Zijin thought about it and agreed with Tang Aiguo's statement.
"I'll go with you next time. You can't carry so many things by yourself." Tang Aiguo looked at Qin Zijin and felt a little sorry for his daughter-in-law.
These things should have been done by these two grown men, but now they have fallen on Qin Zijin's shoulders.
"Dad, it's okay. I can rest assured if you help look after the kids and Tang Shen at home. Besides, since we bought so many things, the store owner will help deliver them, so it won't be a big burden for me." Qin Zijin quickly refused when he heard it.
These goods of hers are not obtained legally. If she takes Tang Aiguo with her, won’t her identity be exposed?
Tang Aiguo's face was full of helplessness when he heard this, and he finally sighed: "You have worked so hard."
"It's not hard. I'll go cook." Qin Zijin waved her hand and went to the kitchen.
After everyone left, Tang Shen spoke softly, "Dad, Zijin's ex-fiancé just came to our house."
Tang Aiguo was startled. He glanced towards the door and then lowered his voice to ask, "What is he doing here? No wonder I just heard people outside say that a rich man had come to the village in a car. I was wondering whose rich relative he was, but I didn't expect it to be my daughter-in-law's former fiancé."
"He came to warn me to leave Zijin, saying that Zijin would not be happy if she followed me." Tang Can calmly repeated what Mo Qinghua had just said to Tang Aiguo.
Tang Aiguo was displeased when he heard this and couldn't help cursing, "Bullshit! How is my son inferior to those city people? It doesn't matter if he can't compare now, he will definitely be able to compare in the future. Don't let his words affect your mentality."
"Dad, I won't. Instead, I should thank him. He made me understand that I should work harder. He is right. Zijin lived a good life before. It doesn't make sense for him to suffer poverty with me after following me. After my legs are healed, I will work hard to make money. I have skills. Even if my legs and feet are not flexible and it affects my driving, I can still repair cars. Besides, I have been going into the mountains with you since I was a child, and I can also hunt. No matter what I do, I can always make money." Tang Shen's eyes became incomparably firm.
Qin Zijin was able to defend herself so well in front of Mo Qinghua, and she absolutely could not let her down.
Seeing the change in Tang Can, Tang Aiguo finally breathed a sigh of relief. "It's good that you know how to think. I was really afraid that you would become depressed and say those nonsense to your wife again. Dad is telling you, right now, everything is fake. You need money to start a business. After the New Year, you can take your wife and two children to the developed cities in the south. Don't worry about the money. Your mother and I have already saved some money for you."
Tang Shen's face was full of surprise, "Dad?"
"A man cannot be trapped in such a small place all his life. He has no future. Since your wife's ex-fiancé drives a small car, you naturally can't be worse than him." Tang Aiguo raised his hand and patted Tang Can's shoulder with a bright smile.
"Dad, aren't you going with us?" Tang Can frowned and looked at Tang Aiguo.
"Me? I'm old, why should I go? Besides, I can't be too far away from your mother. I have to stay here with her. What if she comes home to look for me and gets anxious because she can't find me? You've grown up, and it's time for you to go out and make a living on your own." Tang Aiguo smiled, and when he talked about his wife, the smile on his face was sweet and happy.
Tang Shen felt a pain in his heart, and then clenched his fists.
Mo Qinghua's attack not only did not make Tang Shen feel inferior, but instead completely aroused his inner fighting spirit.
Qin Zijin had no idea what Tang Shen was thinking and was busy preparing a sumptuous lunch.
At this time, the system also underwent new changes.
