These were all purchased by Yang Baiyi when he went to Danjiang City to treat the old leader. It was a rare trip to the city, and Yang Baiyi bought a lot of things, whether they were needed or not.
Especially daily necessities, Yang Baiyi bought a lot of them. With two beautiful girls at home, of course they had to dress up beautifully.
"Wanru and Xiaoxiao both like to be clean, so I prepared some extra. They are not worth much, so I let them use them freely."
Yang Baiyi pretended again without realizing it.
After ten o'clock in the evening, the river was quiet. Walking along the river bank, you could only hear the gurgling sound of flowing water.
"Okay, let's go down from here. This is mountain spring water, it's ice cold, you have to be mentally prepared."
Yang Baiyi reminded kindly.
"Hasn't Wanru told you where I served in the army? The rivers where we live are filled with melted snow from the Tianshan Mountains, which is much colder than this.
Lin Xiao took off his military uniform, revealing his strong muscles, and walked slowly to the middle of the river.
"Cool!"
Feeling the flowing river water washing over his body, Lin Xiao shouted in comfort.
"Look at you, you look like a bear. Come down quickly! Your physical fitness is not good enough. Learn more from me."
Lin Xiao shouted to Yang Baiyi who was standing on the river bank.
"What are you panicking about? You want to compete in everything, damn your desire to win!"
In fact, Lin Xiao has fire-related abilities, so this bit of cold water is no problem for him.
But now that there are no zombies chasing us, why not enjoy life!
Yang Baiyi patted his body with cold water, and after adapting to the temperature, he slowly walked to the middle of the river.
"After I returned home, I read every word of my sister's letter.
No wonder my sister always talks about how good life is in the countryside every time she writes to me. My parents used to think that my sister was afraid that they would worry, so she was deliberately comforting them.
After coming here, I realized that my sister had not lied at all, and you are indeed living a very comfortable life."
Men will become much closer emotionally after drinking together and taking a bath naked together.
At least Lin Xiao now likes Yang Baiyi.
"Rural areas and cities each have their own advantages. Cities are more prosperous and life is more convenient. Supply and marketing cooperatives can basically buy anything you want. Of course, the prerequisite is that you have a ticket.
Life in the countryside is more relaxed, there's less pressure, crops can be grown in the fields, and every household has a vegetable garden. As long as there aren't major natural disasters, people won't starve to death."
In this era, everything was planned economy, and the difference between urban and rural areas was not big. If you were a worker in the city, you couldn't buy anything no matter how much salary you were given as long as you didn't have receipts.
Some people might say that they can buy it on the black market, but with the black market prices, you really can't buy much with a monthly salary of thirty or forty yuan.
Unless they are desperate, no one is willing to consume on the black market.
"I feel that the city is not as good as the countryside. My family was allocated more supplies because my father was of a high rank.
But what about ordinary people? What can they do with half a pound of meat coupons and three ounces of oil coupons per person per month?
If I eat as much as I want, I can finish a year's worth of meat coupons in one meal.
How can you live comfortably in the countryside? If you want to eat meat, there's plenty in the mountains, as long as you have the ability to catch it."
Lin Xiao's words made Yang Baiyi laugh out loud, and after thinking about it, he realized that it was indeed the case.
Soldiers all have big bellies. They are usually either on missions or undergoing high-intensity training. They consume calories quickly and need a lot of food to replenish them.
Each person is given half a pound of meat coupons per month, which is only three pounds and six ounces per year. If you eat as much as you want, you can finish it in one meal.
"I have a crossbow here. How about we go hunting tomorrow?"
Everything about the countryside is good, except that there is nothing fun to do. After thinking about it, Yang Baiyi decided to take Lin Xiao to the mountains.
"Okay, let's go hunting in the mountains tomorrow, and then we can go to the village the day after tomorrow to find out more about you."
Lin Xiao agreed readily and casually threw the important matter aside.
After taking a shower, they changed into clean clothes and washed the dirty clothes.
If they bring the dirty clothes home, Lin Wanru will definitely help them wash them, but Lin Xiao and Yang Baiyi will not be willing to do so.
On the way back, Lin Xiao lit a Zhonghua cigarette.
"Zhonghua cigarettes are still the smoothest to smoke!"
Lin Xiao blew out a smoke ring skillfully.
"If you like smoking, I'll get it for you tomorrow."
There are boxes of Zhonghua cigarettes in Yang Baiyi's space. Of course, he will not be stingy with his brother-in-law.
"Okay, since you don't smoke anyway, it would be a shame if you got into trouble. I'll help you deal with it."
Lin Xiao acted as if he was doing this for your own good.
"It's your army's discipline not to take a single needle or thread from the masses, right? You've served in the army for nothing these past few years."
Yang Baiyi joked with Lin Xiao casually.
"I'm giving you a chance to please me, I hope you won't be ungrateful, young man, take care of yourself.
If you pass my assessment, I will report your situation truthfully to my parents when I return.
If possible, I will transfer you and my sister back together."
At least at this moment, Lin Xiao felt that there was nothing wrong with Yang Baiyi being his brother-in-law.
My younger sister, who has always followed me around since childhood, has grown up now and will find a partner to get married sooner or later.
Whether you accept it or not, this is the normal law of the development of time.
"You are right. Thank you for giving me a chance to please you. I will definitely do my best."
After Yang Baiyi finished speaking, he and Lin Xiao looked at each other and smiled.
After returning home, the two hung the washed clothes in the yard and went back to their rooms to sleep.
The next day, Yang Baiyi got up early as usual, washed up, and went to the kitchen to prepare breakfast.
As soon as the fire was lit, Lin Wanru and Lin Xiao walked out of the room one after another.
"Brother, why don't you sleep a little longer?"
Lin Wanru prepared the water for Lin Xiao to wash his face.
"I can't sleep. I've been in the army for so many years, I'm used to it. This kid is really working hard since I got here! He got up so early to make breakfast."
Lin Xiao gestured towards the kitchen with his head.
"Brother, you are really wronging Bai Yi. Since the first day we moved here, it has always been Bai Yi who made breakfast.
He said that getting more sleep is good for girls' skin, so he would prepare dinner before waking Xiaoxiao and me up.
Didn’t you come today? I woke up so early because I was afraid you would call me lazy.”
Lin Wanru looked towards the kitchen, looking at the busy figure with unconcealable sweetness in her eyes.
"This guy is really good. If I were a girl, I would be confused if I met him."
In Lin Xiao's opinion, cooking is what women should do, and men should work hard for their careers.
But Yang Baiyi seemed to have taken both into consideration. He went to the countryside to join a production team and even got a regular job on the farm.
A man who earns both wages and work points and does everything at home, and most importantly, he looks good, is really an excellent man.
It’s no wonder that my sister went against her parents’ wishes and wanted to date Yang Baiyi. Which girl wouldn’t be moved by a man like this?
