Chapter 149 Pulling Wires



Su Li, Su Lan and Su Fang rushed back to Dong in the afternoon. More than ten skirts had already been made at home.

Su Li checked each item one by one and was very satisfied. Except for the fact that his hands and feet were a little slow, everything else was very good.

"Okay, let's stop here today. Su Fang from the Tiantian Supply and Marketing Cooperative is here to deliver some goods. Oh, and I'll give her two hair flowers. Tell her they're for her. Chat with the salespeople more and learn more."

"Okay, aunt."

"Well, Su Lan will go to the steel mill in a couple of days to visit Fifth Sister-in-law and give Su Gang two comic books. I promised him before I left that if anyone from Fifth Sister-in-law's place buys a skirt, please remember the size. By the way, if you wear a different style of skirt when you go out, we will make a new one tomorrow."

"good."

Everyone knows that the two girls sold two pieces of clothing today.

Although it's not much, it gives everyone enough confidence. This is the result of a trip to the county supply and marketing cooperative. When more people buy in the future, won't the satisfaction be naturally improved?

When Su Li returned to the room, Li Dan and others were surrounding the three little guys and watching them play.

When Hu Zi saw Su Li coming back, he quickly went up to her and pulled her hand, "Look, mom, my sister can blow bubbles."

Su Li was so excited that it seemed as if blowing bubbles was a big deal. She couldn't help laughing, but she wasn't as excited as her son.

"Really? Is it Jinghui or Jinghan?"

"It's my second sister. My youngest sister is very lazy." Shitou complained.

"No, my little sister is a very good kid." Li Dan defended.

"Okay, okay, you two keep fighting about this every day. They are still young. It's time to eat. Grandma made you some steamed buns and boiled a pot of sour soup. It's the one from the banquet. Don't you like sour soup?"

"Really, grandma, then Baoya wants to eat two buns."

"Silly girl, grandma makes big buns, you are not afraid of being full, but don't eat too much, your mother will give you milk to drink in the evening."

"Well, Baoya, remember this. Just eat until you are full."

"Be good, Tiedan will help you wash your hands. We will have dinner soon."

Shitou wrinkled his face and said, "But Daddy hasn't come back yet."

"It's okay. Grandma just left it for your dad."

Su Li saw that everything was ready, so she didn't care anymore and waited for Qing to eat.

The three children are still breastfeeding, but Su Li has a big breast but no milk. Although she has tried hard, it is of no use. She has no choice but to find an old-fashioned milk bottle in the space, put the milk tea in a plastic bag and put it into the malted milk can.

At night, she locked the door and went into the space to wash up when no one was paying attention. She then went to the warehouse to find some cloth to make clothes, about a dozen pieces.

All of them are placed in the clothes-making room.

When Xie Zhengchuan came back, Su Li was making milk powder for Jinghui by using a kerosene lamp.

Hearing the footsteps, she looked back and continued what she was doing. Xie Zhengchuan felt that he had fallen out of favor, really fallen out of favor. This situation of looking back and then looking back had never happened before.

He touched his face subconsciously.

Have you become ugly recently?

No,

It seems to be quite good, but why doesn’t my wife want to watch it at all?

"Cough... cough..." Xie Zhengchuan thought while putting his fist against his lips.

Su Li turned around and glanced at him again, "What's wrong, are you catching a cold? You better be careful and don't catch a cold."

Xie Zhengchuan was still happy. He took two steps forward and wanted to hug his wife. However, just as he raised his arm, he heard his wife say,

"Stay warm. If you're sick, you need to stay in a room by yourself. Don't infect me. I still need to hold the baby. Also, don't get too close to the children for the next few days."

Xie Zhengchuan choked.

"No, I'm fine."

Xie Zhengchuan sighed and continued, "I just feel that since the birth of the child, you have cared less about me and have devoted all your attention to the child. Is it because I am not as good-looking as before, or because I am old and ugly?"

Su Li blushed and said, "No way, don't talk nonsense, the children are still young, how can you be jealous of them."

Xie Zhengchuan wasn't really jealous, he was just teasing her, but thinking about what he knew,

"Well, I heard from my eldest brother that the village is going to install electric wires, so let's do it at home too. It's inconvenient to use kerosene lamps to read books at night and draw pictures for you."

"Pull the string, of course you're pulling the string, let's pull the string for my parents' house as well."

Xie Zhengchuan smiled. She was always like this, thinking everything through so thoroughly. "Don't worry, I've already told my eldest brother about this. I just want to tell you about this so that you don't get scared when someone comes to visit us."

"Yeah, it's okay. Hand the bottle over to mommy. Jinghui is going to cry because of hunger."

"Okay, I'll be back in a bit."

The next day, Xie Zhenghe informed everyone through a loudspeaker about the wiring in Shanghe Village. Now Li Waishan basically lets Xie Zhenghe handle all matters in the village, big or small.

He has almost let go completely. His family has leased more than ten acres of land and planted grain, vegetables, and sugarcane.

Seeing that the price of sugarcane is rising very well, we will make a lot of money in another month!

Since her daughter left, Mrs. Li seemed to have lost her temper. She no longer made trouble and instead acted honestly. After all, she still had a son. The brown sugar factory was doing better and better, and she had even had a salary increase recently.

Ordinary workers now earn 23 yuan a month, while leaders' wages have increased to 30 yuan a month.

Of course, there are also various benefits. The villagers working in the brown sugar factory are very grateful. After work, they can still go to the fields to work. If they don’t have time, they can spend one or two yuan to find someone to help them plant the fields. It is not a loss at all and very cost-effective.

With both wages and food, life couldn't be better. The other villagers didn't have much money because they could get some bonus from the brown sugar factory every day. So when Xie Zhenghe notified them to pull the wires, many people were willing to do so.

Of course, there are also some people who laugh at the joke.

The next morning, while walking around the village, I heard a group of people gossiping.

"If you ask me, it's just because I'm poor. I don't know how to spend the little money I have."

"Isn't it? You thought you could just pull a string, but this is a lot of money flowing out every month."

"What a waste! How long does it take to fill a bottle of kerosene? It only costs a few bucks. I heard that electricity in the city is very expensive, only one or two dollars a month."

"Oh, that's so much money, you're asking for trouble. Wouldn't it be better to use the money to buy meat?"

"He is just an idiot. Whoever pulls him is an idiot."

Su*dashadan*li

......

The people who were pulling the electric wires had already registered with the team. In the afternoon, they vaguely saw workers from the county town coming to survey the terrain and measure the distance. Looking at this scene, Su Li felt very complicated. She could be said to have witnessed the changes of the times.

Before she could express her feelings,

Su Lan and Su Fang came back together outside. They looked so happy that Su Li was stunned. What happened to these two girls that made them so happy?

"You're back. What are you so happy about?"

Su Fang came up and hugged Su Li with a smile, "Aunt, do you know how many orders we brought back today?"

"Seventeen."

Everyone, including Su Li, stared at the two of them.
