Chapter 449 Post Office



We rode all the way to the post office.

Seeing the iconic green, Jianshu suddenly slapped his head, feeling a little regretful. "I should have gone home earlier. I could have sent something to Brother Tianlei."

As a result, after arguing with Gu Mingjing, telling jokes and chatting, I completely forgot about it.

Gu Mingjing reached out and touched her head. "It's okay. It's the same if you come over to send it when you have time. Don't pat your head, or you'll get stupid."

Jian Shu rolled his eyes at him. "Wouldn't that mean I'd have to make another trip? Besides, wouldn't it be much easier to just send it by courier?"

"Why don't we go back and get it now?" Gu Mingjing, who was being scolded, touched his nose and suggested.

Jian Shu shook his head. "Forget it. We're already here. Going back would be troublesome."

Although the post office is not too far from home, it is not very close either. It takes quite a while to go back and forth.

"Okay, go pack first. I'll borrow some writing paper from someone and write a letter to Brother Tianlei."

"Okay, go ahead." Gu Mingjing responded straightforwardly.

Jianshu looked around the hall and found Gaoxue sitting by the fire in the corner.

"Comrade Gao—"

"Comrade Jian? You're here!" Hearing the shout, Gao Xue looked over. After seeing Jian Shu, she was a little surprised and quickly stood up.

"You haven't been here for a while. I've accumulated a lot of stamps during this time. I was wondering when you could come over."

"Really? I'm so sorry. The weather has been a bit cold recently, and I was too lazy to go out, so I haven't come here. It just so happened that I came to send something to my brother today, so I came to borrow some letter paper from you." Jianshu said apologetically.

"Isn't it just a piece of letter paper? What's the point of borrowing it? Come with me and I'll give you one." Gao Xue pulled Jian Shu and walked towards the counter.

She walked up to the counter, rummaged under it for a while, and soon took out a piece of letter paper and a pen.

Pushing it in front of Jian Shu, he asked, "Is one enough? How about two more?"

She still remembered that every time Jianshu sent a letter, it was a thick stack and the envelopes were stuffed bulging.

"Enough, enough!" Jian Shu stopped her.

She will send something in a few days. Today, I am in a hurry, so I won’t write a long article. I will just briefly describe what happened today so that Zhao Tianlei can know the latest situation at home.

"Okay, you write first. I'll go get the stamps I've accumulated during this period and show them to you." Gao Xue considerately left Jianshu some private space.

"Okay, thank you for your help." Jianshu thanked.

As the sound of "rustling" was heard, vivid characters appeared one after another on the blank paper.

With the last stroke of the pen, Jianshu puts a perfect end to the page.

After leaving the time and signing, she turned the pen tip, closed the pen cap, put the letter in the envelope next to it, and walked towards Gu Mingjing.

At this time, the gifts have been packed and I am waiting for her letter.

"Done?"

Jianshu said "hmm" and handed him the letter. "You can mail it together. I'll go buy some stamps."

"Okay, then go ahead." Gu Mingjing nodded. He knew that Jianshu had a hobby of stamp collecting.

He even exchanged a lot of military mail with his comrades in the army for this purpose. They were of various types, all of which she had not collected.

"Oh, by the way, do you know the address?" Halfway through the walk, Jianshu suddenly thought of the most important thing and walked back to ask.

"I know." Gu Mingjing nodded.

"Okay then." Jian Shu said and turned to leave without asking him how he knew. It was just those ways.

Looking at the various stamps on the counter, Jian Shu was very satisfied. He nodded and said to Gao Xue, "That's all. I want them all."

These are all her assets, and they appreciate slowly over time.

Although I don’t know which ones are valuable and which ones are not, as long as there are one or two precious stamps, it will not be a loss.

Moreover, as a person with some hoarding habits, the process of collecting stamps alone brings her a lot of joy, regardless of the outcome.

Watching the stamp album slowly fill up with stamps, the sense of satisfaction is indescribable.

"Okay, then I'll pack them all for you." Gao Xue was not surprised by Jianshu's choice.

After all, this kind of scene has been seen many times in the past two years and is no longer surprising.

After calculating the price, Jianshu readily handed over the money and the ticket.

He pretended to dig in his pocket with his left hand and took out a few White Rabbit candies, handing them over. "These candies are for you to enjoy, and I'll have to trouble you to keep an eye out for gifts in the future. As usual, I'll take all the new ones, and even the ones I don't have."

"Okay, I'll keep an eye on them for you. Just come and get them later." Gao Xue happily took the candy. Her younger brothers and sisters at home could have candy again.

Her family was in financial difficulty. Even though she worked at the post office with a good salary and benefits, she had a large family with many mouths to feed, most of whom were still children. Simply filling her stomach was a struggle.

Basically, apart from buying some cakes and candies for the children during the Chinese New Year, there is rarely any extra food on other days.

Every time I see other people’s children holding snacks and candies, their younger brothers and sisters swallow their saliva, which makes me sad.

But the family is burdened with too much and cannot satisfy them.

Fortunately, she met Jianshu, who kept an eye out for stamps for her and occasionally sent her some snacks.

There are candies, snacks, fried beans, etc. The portions are not big, but everyone in the family can enjoy them.

Although this was not her original intention when she first added stamps to Jianshu, being able to get some rewards when she is enthusiastic can make people more motivated and more happy.

After buying the stamps, Jianshu chatted with Gao Xue across the counter again. They didn't talk about anything important, just chatting casually.

Until Gu Mingjing came over after sending the letter and package.

"Have you bought the stamps? It's time to go home." He stood next to Jianshu.

"We've bought it, let's get ready. Let's go." Jianshu stopped talking and replied.

Then he looked at Gao Xue and said goodbye: "Comrade Gao, I'll be leaving now. See you next time."

"See you next time." Gao Xue nodded and watched the two of them leave together.

What a perfect match!

Looking at the harmonious backs of the two, she couldn't help but sigh.
