After shopping for a day and preparing a lot of things, Lu Xia went home carrying a canvas bag.
When the Lu family saw her come back, no one said anything, and she was happy to have some peace and quiet.
Lu Qiu and Lu Dong were curious when they saw her bringing things back, but they didn't dare to ask because she had a blank expression.
However, Lu's mother and the others knew that she would not be able to buy anything good, after all, she did not have a ticket.
Although the Lu family didn't talk to her, they did not withhold food from her. Lu Xia, with the mentality of "it would be a waste if she didn't eat", went to the table to eat openly.
After dinner, I went back to my room as usual. Even after closing the door, I could still hear Lu Chun's complaints.
"If you are so stubborn, why do you still eat at home? With so much money in your hands, why don't you buy your own food?"
Then I heard Mother Lu say, "That's enough. She can't stay at home for a few more days."
After that, Lu Chun stopped talking.
Lu Xia sneered and said, "Just wait, the "gift" for you is still to come."
...
...
In the next few days, Lu Xia went out to prepare supplies as usual, and went to the black market to exchange some tickets. He also bought some meat from the butcher and put it in the space to cook and eat secretly later.
Thinking about the college entrance examination in a few years, I went to a bookstore and bought several books on mathematics, physics and chemistry.
Out of curiosity, I went to the scrap collection station again. I didn't see any antiques, but I did buy a shabby second-hand small stove. It looked like it could be used after some repairs, and I also put some space in it, planning to keep it for future use.
The time to go to the countryside is approaching.
She goes out every day these days and brings something back every time she comes back.
When she was away, Lu's mother secretly looked at it. They were all things that could be bought without a ticket, and there was nothing good. So she curled her lips and ignored her.
Her family still treated her as if they didn't exist, and Lu Xia didn't care.
Anyway, they are all at work and we can only see each other at night.
As for Lu Chun, it was unclear whether she was too guilty to see her or was dating her boyfriend. Anyway, Lu Xia could not see her when she was at home during the day.
Seeing that the agreed time was approaching, she went to the state-owned tailor shop to pick up the cotton jacket.
The old tailor is a real craftsman. He made the clothes very well. As he thought she would grow taller, he made them a little bigger. He has both thin and medium thick cotton-padded jackets, which are big enough for her.
Even the cotton shoes are available in both thin and thick versions, and the soles are also thick, making them suitable for walking in the countryside.
Lu Xia was very satisfied. He paid the money readily and left with his cotton-padded jacket.
She didn't take these cotton-padded jackets home directly, but put them away first.
From then on, she had almost everything ready.
It was not until the day before departure that Lu's mother seemed to finally remember that she was leaving and specially bought meat to cook.
Finally, she was no longer cold during dinner, and he even told her earnestly:
"Be sensible when you go to the countryside, work hard and earn more work points. I heard there are a lot of mountain products in the Northeast. If you have extra, remember to send some home so that our family can improve a little bit."
After hearing this, Lu Xia smiled but didn't say anything. Lu's mother thought that she was sad to leave home, so she comforted her and said that she would give her the job when she got older in a few years and would not let her stay in the countryside forever.
Lu Xia just listened to this and didn't take it seriously. Of course, she didn't refute it. It was the last day and she didn't want to cause any more trouble.
In the evening, Lu's mother asked Lu Chun to find some of her clothes for Lu Xia.
Lu Chun didn't want to give it to her, so he scrambled to find two pieces of clothing from the bottom of his closet. They were probably worn when he was twelve or thirteen years old. They looked quite new and could be worn by Lu Qiu, but they probably wouldn't fit her.
Lu Xia looked at her and sneered. See, it has been like this since she was a child. She would rather leave the clothes that could not be worn alone than give them to her. Only when it was really necessary would she give her the most tattered one. Now she took it out.
But she didn't want it and just packed up her two pieces of clothing.
