"No more drinking. That's all for today. Brother Xiao and I will drink again tomorrow."
Lin Tieshan was just drunk, not really stupid, so he could still tell which was more important.
In order to be able to drink his son-in-law's tiger bone wine and ginseng wine in the future, Lin Tieshan simply chose to obey.
"It was my son-in-law who directly grasped the stubborn old man's vital point."
Seeing that Lin Tieshan stopped drinking, Liang Fengxia finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Xiao Qingyang drank so much alcohol that he definitely couldn't go out anymore. The family went directly to the accommodation arranged by Lin Tieshan.
The accommodation was arranged in the military district compound, a special cadre sanatorium, which consisted of a series of two-story buildings.
Lin Tieshan and Xiao Qingyang went to rest, and Liang Fengxia pulled Mu Xue aside to chat.
These old sisters haven't seen each other for many years, and they have endless things to talk about when they get together.
"Aunt, I have a car here. Do you want to go visit your grandparents right now?"
Lin Wanru asked considerately.
"Revival, what do you say?"
When she arrived in Luoshui City, Zhou Fengying felt a little homesick.
"While Dad is resting and Mom is chatting, why don't we go over and visit the two old people now?"
Xiao Fuxing knew why his parents had taken leave to come here. Tomorrow, he would definitely follow his sister's footsteps under the guidance of his eldest nephew.
"I'll be your driver."
Yang Baiyi volunteered, knowing that his uncle was not familiar with the road and could not drive.
"What about you?"
Zhou Fengying looked at others embarrassedly.
She was going to visit her grandparents. It wouldn't be a good idea to bring so many people with her, but it also didn't seem right to go alone.
"It's okay, you guys go ahead. Xiaoxiao was clamoring to play with Yuan Hua on the train.
There are two cars left. I will take Xiaoxiao to visit my sister-in-law's house later."
Lin Wanru held the little hand and waved to Zhou Fengying.
"Okay, then we'll leave first and won't say hello to Mom."
Yang Baiyi was driving the car, Xiao Fuxing and Zhou Fengying were sitting in the back seat holding their children, and the military jeep drove smoothly out of the military compound.
"Bai Yi, do you know the family compound of the towing factory?"
"Of course I know. Every kid who grew up in Luoshui knows about the First Tractor Factory."
Yang Baiyi deliberately made a circle and parked the car in front of the department store.
"Uncle, aunt, please wait in the car. I'll buy some gifts for the sleeper berth."
Yang Baiyi didn't think too much about it, he just felt that it was inconvenient for the couple to go shopping while holding their little cousin.
We are all family, it doesn’t matter who buys it.
"No, Baiyi, this is my first time visiting grandpa and grandma after going to the countryside, so I have to buy the gifts."
Zhou Fengying said seriously.
"Okay, let's go together."
Yang Baiyi opened the car door and took his little cousin from his uncle's arms.
The three of them walked into the department store carrying their child and went to the grocery area first.
"Comrade, please help me get two barrels of malted milk, two bottles of Dukang wine, a pack of Daqianmen cigarettes, and weigh me a pound of peony cakes."
Zhou Fengying said to the salesperson.
"No, comrade, don't listen to her. We want two barrels of malted milk, the wine will be replaced with Maotai, the cigarettes will be replaced with Zhonghua, and two pounds each of Peony Cake and Egg Cake."
Xiao Fuxing, holding his son, quickly interrupted.
"Fuxing, I'm not working yet. The money I have is all given by you and mother. There's no need for us to buy such expensive gifts."
This is also the reason why Zhou Fengying is eager to go to work. She always feels that she has the confidence to spend her own money.
"What are you talking about? The money I earn is for you to spend. You can spend it however you want.
This is our first time visiting your grandparents, so the gift has to be something nice! Don’t you think I’m your nephew?”
Xiao Fuxing knew that his eldest nephew had a very high prestige among the educated youth group, so in order to avoid wasting words, he directly brought up Yang Baiyi.
"What my uncle said makes sense. Auntie, please stop arguing and just buy it according to what my uncle said."
Yang Baiyi strongly supported Xiao Fuxing's decision. It was not that he was short of money, so there was no need to be stingy when buying gifts.
"There's really no need for that. Gifts are always a token of your thought. My grandpa might not be used to good cigarettes and good wine!"
Zhou Fengying grumbled softly, but did not stop him anymore.
"This comrade is so lucky! You are so generous to your family. Most people wouldn't be willing to accept such a generous gift."
It is said that salespeople in this era look down on people and are extremely arrogant, but the facts also depend on people.
They really have no patience when they see people who are dressed shabbily and just look without buying anything.
When they meet people who are well-dressed and generous, they smile sweetly.
Salespeople meet countless people every day, and knowing what to say to different people is a necessary skill for them.
"I am quite lucky."
Zhou Fengying looked at Xiao Fuxing with unmelting tenderness in her eyes.
After buying the gifts, Zhou Fengying couldn't help but take a few more glances at the electronics area when passing by.
"Comrade, get me a radio."
Zhou Fengying's gaze was directed towards the radio.
"Comrade, we don't want it."
"Fuxing, we have enough gifts already, but I dare not buy another radio."
Before Zhou Fengying went to the countryside, her grandfather's biggest hobby was listening to the radio, but there was no radio at home, so he always listened to other people's radios in the staff quarters.
But when listening to other people's radios, you can only follow their preferences. You can only listen to what the owner wants to listen to.
Seeing her grandfather, who had always loved her, like this, Zhou Fengying secretly vowed that when she started working and earned a salary, she would buy a radio for her grandfather.
But she bought it with her own salary, and she really didn't think of asking Xiao Fuxing to buy it.
"That's okay. I happened to have some industrial tickets with me. I'll buy one for my grandparents. It's good for them to listen to some music and kill some time."
Afraid that Zhou Fengying would stop him, Xiao Fuxing directly stuffed his son into his wife's arms.
"Comrade, you have good taste. This Red Lantern brand radio was produced by the Shanghai Radio Factory No. 2. It's the most reliable brand and of excellent quality."
The salesperson had good taste. Looking at the people's clothes and the Moutai liquor and Zhonghua cigarettes in their hands, he could tell that they were wealthy.
"Very good, just issue the invoice and I'll go over there to pay."
Since they were all public institutions, bargaining was not allowed, so Xiao Fuxing simply didn't even ask the price.
"Comradely generosity."
What else can the salesperson say except envy?
When we came out of the department store, there was a big bag of gifts and a brand new radio in the jeep.
This time, Yang Baiyi did not delay any longer and drove straight to the towing factory staff compound.
The family compound of the tractor factory is a standard Russian-style building. It was built by the Russians when the relationship between the two countries was good.
According to Zhou Fengying's instructions, the jeep stopped in front of a three-story residential building.
The Jeep of the 1970s was even rarer than the Rolls-Royce of later generations, and it instantly attracted everyone's attention.
"Grandpa, I'm here to see you."
As soon as Zhou Fengying got off the car, she saw a group of old men listening to the radio under a plane tree.
Among them is her grandfather Zhou Qianxiang.
