Knowing that Gu Xi really had a stomachache and it was not a pregnancy problem, Lin Ling started gossiping again: "Let me tell you, Wei Dashu's family has been making trouble with Liu Xiuni these past two days. Liu Xiuni originally said that she would agree to date Wei Dashu, but I don't know why, she suddenly wanted to cut off the relationship a few days ago.
Wei Dashu asked her the reason, and she said that she disliked Wei Dashu because he was a farmer and could not give her a good life.
Wei Dashu was very sad. He went back and locked himself in the room without eating or drinking for a whole day and night. Wei Xiaohua was so worried that she went to the educated youth site to make trouble. A group of people just went to the neighborhood committee. It's a pity that you were not there, otherwise you would have had the latest news. "
Gu Xi remembered seeing Liu Xiuni next door before: "Fortunately I'm not here. It's useless to make a fuss about this. Liu Xiuni has the right to choose her partner. Free love is advocated now."
Lin Ling looked at Gu Xi and drank a sip of water: "Your boss Xu is really unfriendly. I have been here for such a long time, but he didn't even give me some water to drink. Every time I come back from your place, I am so thirsty.
It is said that Wei Dashu spent half of the 200 yuan he had saved for marrying his wife on Liu Xiuni, buying her clothes and food. Now he dumped her because he said they were not interested in each other.
The money she spent was not enough. She helped her with work and delivered meals and vegetables every day. The new cotton-padded jacket she was wearing was made of cotton that Wei Xiaohua had asked someone to exchange for her.
Every household in the countryside has a quota of cotton. I made her a cotton-padded jacket, but no one in the family had a new cotton-padded jacket to wear. Do you think the Wei family can let her go? "
Gu Xi never expected that in such a hard and simple era, there would still be "gold diggers" like Liu Xiuni.
"Then what did the Wei family ask for in the end? There has to be a result to a quarrel. It can't just end without any reason."
Lin Ling couldn't help it, so she picked up Gu Xi's cup and drank up the remaining water: "This is still red date water, Gu Xi, you really know how to enjoy yourself. Boss Xu takes such good care of you, he treats me much better than my dad does.
What else could the Wei family do? Liu Xiuni had no money and could not be forced into marriage, so they could only ask her to return the things Wei Dashu had given her. She had already eaten all the food, so she could only take back her cotton-padded jacket and new clothes.
Liu Xiuni was unwilling to do so. She only had a tattered cotton-padded jacket and it was too cold to wear it that day. She also did not want to return the new clothes. She went to scold Wei Dashu, saying that he was not a man and should take back things he had given away.
Wei Dashu finally asked for a cotton jacket and nothing else. He asked for the cotton jacket for Wei Xiaohua.
The two sides were in a stalemate. Finally, Gao Jinghong from the educated youth point couldn't stand it anymore and said that Liu Xiuni had found a new partner, so she was anxious to cut off their relationship. She told Liu Xiuni not to embarrass herself in front of her new partner. Finally, Liu Xiuni returned the cotton jacket to Wei Xiaohua reluctantly. "
Gu Xi sighed and gave Lin Ling some additional information: "Liu Xiuni's new boyfriend is Yao Cuilian's nephew next door, Yao Zhouzheng, who she had a fight with before.
His name is Zhou Zheng, but his appearance and thoughts are crooked. The upper beam is crooked and the lower beams are crooked too. "
Lin Ling didn't expect there would be extra gossip: "Yao Zhouzheng next door? I heard he's from town and has a good job. He was actually picked up by Liu Xiuni."
Gu Xi didn't think so: "It's still unknown whether he is taking advantage of others. I think this man has a problem with his character. The whole family is top-notch, and each of them has their own bad intentions."
Lin Ling was about to leave when it was time for dinner: "By the way, shall we go to town together the day after tomorrow? Let's go buy some things. Ye Xinchen said that if there are two more snowfalls, the road will be closed. I have a package to pick up, and the ticket you asked for should have been mailed to me."
Gu Xi agreed to go to town, of course: "Okay, if you hadn't told me, I would have forgotten, I also have a package to pick up."
There were quite a lot of people when they went to the town that day. Uncle Zhao's ox cart was out again. Gu Xi and the others still rode bicycles. Since Gu Xi had already promised Wang Xu, she didn't avoid suspicion and sat directly on the back seat of Wang Xu.
When passing by the ox cart at the entrance of the village, I heard the village aunties and educated youth quarreling because they were sitting in a windy place. Uncle Zhao smoked calmly, "Stop arguing. It doesn't matter where you sit. Let's get going. The sooner we go, the sooner we can get back. It will be even colder later."
Now that the weather is cold, Wang Xu put the game he hunted in the mountains in the yard to freeze. It was sent directly to Gu Xi's home, and 10 yuan was also sent along with the letter. This was the salary Gu Xi received from his first job. The money was not much, but it was of great significance.
For the packages we got from the post office, please have Uncle Zhao send them back once by ox cart. It will be five cents per person. There will be names on the packages so there will be no mistakes.
As usual, they went to the supply and marketing cooperative first. This time, Gu Xi deliberately sent Wang Xu away and asked him to buy some vegetables first, while she and Lin Ling went shopping.
After Wang Xu left, Lin Ling took out a watch ticket from her bag and said, "I asked my dad to send two of them. How about that? It's a nice gesture."
Gu Xi gave a thumbs up and said, "I like you. You are really powerful. It is my great honor to know you. Here is fifty yuan. I will ask you to buy the ticket."
Lin Ling refused: "I don't want your money. I have several of these tickets at home. They are just there for me to keep. I hope that when I come to your house in the future, Boss Xu will give me a glass of water."
Gu Xi pushed Lin Ling several times but couldn't get rid of her, so she just gave up and asked ambiguously, "Thanks, I will definitely say a few good words for you in front of Boss Xu. Who do you want to buy the other one for?"
Lin Ling said nothing, shyly stretched out her hand and pinched Gu Xi, causing her to almost scream in pain: "Hiss. You hit me too hard, you pinched me blue."
The familiar elder sister had already come forward to greet him: "Hey, Gu Zhiqing, are you going to buy a watch? I just happen to have two new watches, Plum Blossom watches."
Gu Xi and Lin Ling followed the elder sister to the counter: "Sister, I want to buy a men's one, please take it out and show it to me."
The elder sister's eyes lit up. Men's watches are more expensive than women's watches. "Are you buying this for Xiao Wang? Xiao Wang is really lucky. Look at this one. It has a big dial. It just came the day before yesterday. It's the latest model. But it's a little expensive. It costs two hundred and sixty yuan."
Gu Xi was immediately heartbroken when she heard this: "My piece is also a plum blossom piece, it only costs 180 yuan, why is this piece 260 yuan, it's too expensive, can you give me a discount?"
The eldest sister was also in a dilemma. She pulled Gu Xi aside and whispered, "There is no other way. I have already given you a preferential price. No one comes to buy it for less than 280 yuan. It is the latest model and the price is very accurate.
If you want to buy something else like this, I will give you the lowest price. There is really nothing I can do about this watch. "
Gu Xi finally made up her mind to buy it and put the watch in her small bag, covering it with her hands for fear of losing it.
Lin Ling couldn't help laughing: "You are just trying to cover up your mistake. It's just two hundred and sixty. Sister Gu is not short of money."
Gu Xi pretended to cry: "I really have no money. I bought a watch and have to tighten my belt from now on. I still have to rely on Sister Lin to take care of me."
Lin Ling rolled her eyes immediately: "Do you need me to take care of you? Boss Xu treats you like a queen mother. I see your face has become rounder, you must have gained at least ten pounds."
Gu Xi immediately lost her composure and pinched her waist: "Really? I seem to have gained weight. There is fat on my waist. No, I have to lose weight. I can't eat so much without moving."
Then he bought a white shirt and a black sweater vest for Wang Xu, and a gray sweater vest for himself. It was my eldest sister who helped me choose the size: "Sister, I trust what you buy. Your eyes are the ruler."
Gu Xi wanted to buy some snacks but resisted the urge to do so. Seeing her hesitation, Lin Ling asked, "Are you really that poor that you don't have money to buy snacks?"
Gu Xi sighed: "I've already said I want to lose weight and can't eat anymore. You said you eat so much but you don't gain weight, but I only eat a little and gain so much weight."
Lin Ling couldn't help but slapped her: "What are you talking about? I work in the fields every day, but you don't work. Boss Xu thinks of ways to make delicious food for you every day, even the water is boiled red dates. If you don't get fat, who will get fat?"
