Early the next morning, Fu Shinian got up and dressed first, went out of the house to boil some hot water, brought it into the house and then woke Tong Yiya up.
But at this moment, she was so sleepy that she couldn't even open her eyes. She could only close her eyes and let Fu Shinian help her dress and wash.
After washing up, she became a little more sober. After she went out, the cool breeze outside the house made her completely sober. Then the two of them walked towards the village entrance.
When they arrived at the entrance of the village, they saw from afar that there were already a few people standing there waiting. When they approached, an aunt who was quite talkative with Tong Yiya saw that it was the two of them and greeted them with a smile: "So it's Tong Zhiqing and Fu Zhiqing, you two are going to the commune to buy things too?"
Tong Yiya saw that she was carrying a basket covered with a piece of cloth, but she was sure that there was something inside. Thinking that this aunt would go to the commune to exchange eggs from time to time, she smiled and asked: "Yes, aunt, are you going to exchange eggs?"
"No, a relative in the city asked me for this. I have saved enough money now, so I thought of giving it to her," the aunt said with a smile.
"Is that so? Then this relative of yours should be a worker in the city," a woman on the side interrupted.
"Of course not. If you are not a worker, you can't live in the city," the aunt replied.
Several other people also started chatting with the auntie on this topic. Tong Yiya had woken up early in the morning and was not in the mood, so she only replied to them a sentence or two from time to time.
The topic of conversation among the few people revolved around the worker relatives that the aunt mentioned. Nowadays, the villagers envy the workers in the city the most.
If a relative who is a city worker appears in that family at this time, people around them will be envious when they hear about it.
They didn't talk for long when Uncle Deng from the village came over on a bullock cart. Seeing them, he shouted, "Why are you the only ones here today? Come on, get on the cart. I'm in a hurry to haul some stuff for someone else."
Seeing that there were not many people here, Fu Shinian waited for the aunties to get on the bus and find a seat before he helped Tong Yiya get on and sit down, and then he sat next to her.
After everyone was seated, Uncle Deng waited for another five minutes. Seeing that no one else came, he drove away.
On the ox cart, several aunts started chatting about which girl in the village was living after marrying into which family and how her life was.
Finally, their topic turned to Tong Yiya and her husband. An aunt said, "I'm told that no one in our village married well as well as Tong Zhiqing. Look at how Fu Zhiqing dotes on her. But it's also because of Tong Zhiqing's own ability. Now that they are married, they live in harmony. They are not like other families who quarrel or fight not long after they get married."
"That's right. In our village, many girls envy their lives. But among the educated youth in our village, there are only one or two good ones, and they were all engaged early. Otherwise, the unmarried people in the village would have been engaged too," said another aunt.
"Who said there are no more? Don't forget Dong Zhiqing who was with Fu Zhiqing. He was also a good worker and handsome. He has been in our village for such a long time, but I haven't seen him with a woman by his side," said Aunt N.
"Hey, now that you mention it, I just remembered that there is Dong Zhiqing. Fu Zhiqing, you and Dong Zhiqing are from the same place. Does he have a girlfriend? If not, I can introduce one to you," Aunt A asked Fu Shinian.
Fu Shinian didn't seem to expect that the topic of their conversation would turn to Dong Weibing, but thinking about that silly boy who loved to eat all day and had no intention of finding a partner in the village, he said, "Don't bother, aunts. Dong Zhiqing's family has already arranged a date for him, and now they are waiting for the girl to reach the age to call him back to get married."
"Is that so? I was wondering why I never saw him say anything to that girl." The aunt said this with a bit of regret. However, although they love to be matchmakers, they don't do it for everyone. They are not willing to be matchmakers for someone like this who already has a fiancée.
When Tong Yiya heard Fu Shinian say that Dong Weibing had a fiancée, she knew he was lying, but she also understood why he lied, so she kept silent.
Seeing that the aunts had shifted the topic to other issues, the two of them breathed a sigh of relief.
People enjoy listening to gossip, but they don't like gossip coming from themselves.
After a lot of effort, the ox cart arrived at the commune. After a group of people got off the ox cart, Uncle Deng said, "I'm going to help someone pull a cart of goods, so I'll be back an hour later than usual. I'll be back on time at 3:30 pm. Don't forget, I'll leave on time, and you won't have to wait any longer."
After hearing this, several people dispersed and went to visit their relatives. Fu Shinian and Tong Yiya walked towards the commune hospital.
The two arrived at the hospital. Because they came early, there were not many people in the hospital, so they went to register. After a short while, the examination was over and they had to wait until one o'clock in the afternoon to get the results.
Fu Shinian said to Tong Yiya, "It's still a few hours before we get the results. Let's go out for breakfast first, then go to the supply and marketing cooperative for a while. After lunch, we'll come back and see the doctor after we get the results."
"Okay, let's go. I'm hungry now," Tong Yiya agreed.
The two of them left the hospital and went to the state-owned restaurant in the commune to have some breakfast. When they arrived at the restaurant, they went in and found a seat to sit down. Fu Shinian asked, "What do you want to eat? I'll go order it."
Tong Yiya looked at the sign that said today's breakfast was served, and said, "I want two meat buns and a bowl of porridge. See if there are any boiled eggs over there. If there are, take two."
"Okay, then you sit down and rest for a while, I'll be back soon," Fu Shinian said as he stood up and went to the front desk to order breakfast.
After a while, he came back with the ordered food. He put the two bowls of porridge and eggs on the table, then went back and brought back two buns and a plate of steamed dumplings.
After everything was served, Fu Shinian sat down and said to her before she started eating, "Aren't you hungry? Why don't you eat first?"
"It's boring to eat alone, so I thought about waiting for you to eat together. Your dumplings look delicious." As she said this, her eyes were fixed on the dumplings in front of Fu Shinian.
Seeing her greedy look, Fu Shinian smiled, put the plate in front of him in front of her and said, "Eat if you want to. If you can't finish it, I'll eat more."
"Yeah, Nian Nian, you are the best," Tong Yiya said happily
Then she picked up the chopsticks, picked up a dumpling and put it in her mouth. The juice inside burst in her mouth as soon as she bit it. It was hot, but she was reluctant to spit out this delicious thing.
She could only suck and chew at the same time, and finally swallowed the delicious food in her mouth. When it came to the next one, she didn't dare to swallow it in one gulp.
You can only eat two bites of each dumpling, so it won’t be too hot and will be much easier to eat.
