Finally, with everyone's efforts, the summer harvest was over. After the grain was dried, it was counted and paid as public grain, and then distributed.
After the summer vacation, students began to register for school.
Guo Jianjun went to the county town to study in the first year of high school this semester.
Guo Jianping took him to register, and Liang Xueying made him a school bag, a new piece of clothing, and a pair of new shoes.
Deng Qingling recalled that when she was in school, her family would take her to buy new clothes, shoes, a new school bag, pens and exercise books before each school started.
When I think about it, I feel a little sad. It is really unpredictable.
Thinking of this, I decided to give some back-to-school gifts to the students at home.
Deng Qingling sewed two pencil cases and gave Guo Jianjun a pen and a notebook. She also gave Guo Yu the same thing.
As time slowly passes.
August is coming.
Deng Qingling thought that the Mid-Autumn Festival was approaching and she wanted to go to the county town, but Haohao couldn't leave without someone, so she asked her mother-in-law to help take care of him.
In the evening, while eating, Deng Qingling and Liang Xueying said: "Mom, can you not go to work tomorrow and take care of Haohao? I plan to go to the county town tomorrow to buy some things. The Mid-Autumn Festival is in a few days, and I haven't bought any gifts yet. There aren't many things to choose from in the supply and marketing cooperative in town."
Why do I have to go to the county town to buy everything? The supply and marketing cooperative in town has limited items but we can still get enough for festival gifts. Or is it that my daughter-in-law misses her eldest son?
So looking for an excuse to check it out?
Fortunately, I'm not busy now and I can help take care of the children.
Thinking of this, Liang Xueying felt that she had discovered the truth, and her daughter-in-law must be too embarrassed to say it directly, so she said she wanted to go to the county town to buy things.
Thinking of this, Liang Xueying agreed and said, "Okay, I understand. We have everything we need at home. Just buy some Mid-Autumn Festival gifts."
Deng Qingling nodded and said, "I understand. I will leave at 5:30 tomorrow morning. I will bring Haohao to see you then."
"good"
After returning to the room, Liang Xueying told Guo Youxing about her guess.
Guo Youxing said: "It's a good thing for young people to have a good relationship. Regardless of whether it is or not, it is a fact that Mid-Autumn Festival is coming in a few days, and it is indeed time to buy festival gifts."
After Deng Qingling and Haohao returned to the room, they closed the doors and windows and carried Haohao into the space to prepare the things they would sell tomorrow.
Put Haohao in the stroller and push him to find things and do work.
This time I prepared ten chickens, twenty two-pound pork pieces, 50 pounds of rice and 200 pounds of flour. I also found a few sacks and brown paper and divided the things into several portions.
The reason why we don't take so much rice is because there are two rice seasons a year in the county. The summer harvest has just happened and the autumn harvest will be soon. There won't be a big shortage of rice. People can buy it directly from the village through connections and get a much cheaper price. Why bother buying high-priced grain?
After packing up, Deng Qingling saw that Haohao had fallen asleep, so she set the alarm and went out to sleep with him.
The next day, Deng Qingling got up at around five in the morning, changed Haohao's diaper first, and then took the baby to her mother-in-law Liang Xueying.
Liang Xueying told her to be careful on the road and to come back early as it had been too long, but Haohao refused.
Deng Qingling told Liang Xueying that she had milk powder in her room and she could make some for Haohao if he was hungry.
After saying goodbye to her mother-in-law, Deng Qingling walked to the entrance of the village. She looked around and saw that there was no one. She took out a women's motorcycle from the space, put on a helmet, and started driving.
Deng Qingling hummed a little tune and drove slowly, not very fast because the road was uneven.
Ride my beloved little motorcycle and you will never get stuck in traffic.
Deng Qingling is a tone-deaf scumbag. She only knows this one line and she sings it extremely badly.
Gradually, the sky became brighter and brighter. Deng Qingling rushed to the town station to wait for the bus. The bus did not arrive until around seven o'clock.
While waiting for the bus, Deng Qingling found a corner to disguise herself as an authentic rural woman, took out a backpack and a small handbag, and walked towards the station.
The bus arrived soon. It took about two hours to get to the county town. We took the bus directly to the end of the station because the county hospital was diagonally opposite the station.
After getting off the bus, I went to the station toilet, filled my backpack with the space, and walked towards the hospital's family area.
"Uncle, I want to find someone. Do you know Deng Xiaomei?" Deng Qingling came to the guard room and asked the guard uncle and stuffed a few candies into his hand.
"Are you looking for that Deng Xiaomei? There are three Deng Xiaomeis in the family compound." The uncle put away the candy and planned to take it home to entertain his children after get off work.
"I'm here to bring food to the nurse Deng Xiaomei," Deng Qingling really didn't expect that there would be so many people with the same name.
"Who are you to her? Come and register," the uncle took out a piece of paper.
"She and I are from the same village. I only know that she lives in the hospital's family quarters, but I don't know which family she lives in," said Deng Qingling.
Deng Qingling was not talking nonsense. In the original owner's memory, there was a cousin who worked as a nurse in the county hospital.
The uncle said, "That Deng Xiaomei! She's in the building at the back, go in by yourself."
Deng Qingling: "Okay, thank you very much, uncle."
Deng Qingling wandered around the family quarters and wanted to find someone to ask.
Two aunties were walking towards them. In fact, as soon as Deng Qingling walked in, these two aunties saw her. Seeing her walking around, they came to ask her.
"Little sister, what can I do for you?" one of the aunts asked.
Deng Qingling: "Auntie, I'm here to look for someone, Nurse Deng Xiaomei. Do you know where her home is?"
"I know. We are very familiar with her family. We have nothing to do anyway, so let us take you there," said another aunt.
Deng Qingling said: "Then I'll trouble you, Auntie."
After walking for a few minutes, we arrived at the back floor. When we went up to the second floor, one of the aunties called out to the door, "Jin Jie, Jin Jie, open the door. Your relatives are here."
“Here I come, here I come.”
A woman who was probably in her fifties or sixties came to open the door.
Seeing two old sisters with a young woman, I felt familiar with them, but I couldn't remember where I had seen them before, so I said, "Everyone, come in first."
After Deng Qingling entered the house, she looked around. The house was very clean and it was obvious that the family loved cleanliness.
Sister Liang Jin said: "Come, sit down, I'll get you a glass of water."
Several people sat down.
Sister Liang Jin glanced at Deng Qingling and said, "Who is this?"
The two aunts felt a little strange. Weren't they relatives? Why did they seem like strangers?
Deng Qingling didn't expect anyone to recognize her. She made herself so dark that even her own mother might not recognize her.
"Aunt, I am Sister Xiaomei's youngest cousin," Deng Qingling explained.
Sister Liang Jin was very surprised, "Oh! She has become like this." The little girl used to be very fair, how come she has become ugly?
"I get tanned. I get tanned easily naturally, but my skin turns bleached in the winter," Deng Qingling said quickly.
I shouldn't have come here if I had known this. I came here to find acquaintances to develop downlines.
