"Girl, let me change into something else."
"Sister Lu, please take your time to choose." Song Jinglin's reputation was almost worn out by her.
She also needs to take it easy and not give Lu Yan too much trouble.
He left Lu Yan's house with seventy yuan in his pocket.
Liu Qingqing was relatively confident in Lu Yan. From the very beginning, when she planned to sell the tickets to her, she had examined her from many aspects.
After knowing her for a long time, I know that she is not the kind of person who has conjunctivitis.
Since I'm not a black market smuggler, I have to find a way out.
It is always unsafe to have no money on hand. If an opportunity arises, you won’t even have the start-up capital.
Back at the scrap yard, she remembered what Lu Yan had said.
I did win a set of cosmetics before.
At that time, I thought it was useless. In this era, dressing up is just a way to find something.
Now I think I need to change my mindset. I can dress up to look good or to look ordinary.
I chose a foundation with a slightly gray tone, applied it, and then used a gray eyebrow pencil to create bags under my eyes.
Finally, use brown eyeshadow to lightly fill in the dark circles.
When I looked in the mirror, I saw that my face was dull and lifeless, with big bags under my eyes and dark circles, making me look malnourished.
Two classic brush heads and gray clothes.
This is a member of the working people.
Guo Xiuhua has been getting along well with her lately (consciously). She's no longer just knitting sweaters every day (she's started making shoes), and while she's busy with her work, she's also busy with her mouth.
Liu Qingqing was completely confused by all the gossip about other people, and she had no idea who was the older and who was the younger.
It didn't stop her from gossiping.
The days passed faster than before, so I decided to find something to do, otherwise each day would feel like a year.
Before we knew it, it was New Year's Day of 1971.
The "Revolutionary Spring Festival" resulted in no holiday for the Spring Festival.
If this happened in another unit, there might still be work to do, and the time would pass by in a hurry.
What's in their scrap yard?
Who visits the scrap yard during the New Year?
Although feudal superstitions are not allowed, every family still wants to be auspicious throughout the year.
No one throws anything out during this period, including garbage.
There is an old saying that if you lose things during the New Year, you will lose your "blessings and wealth".
If there are people coming to their scrap yard during the first month of the lunar year, it means that the family is quite poor.
A few days before New Year's Eve, Guo Xiuhua almost just showed up and left.
The garbage pickers at the back did come on time, which showed that the men and women were working at home.
Boys just need to attend class well and go home early for lunch.
Women go to work as usual, and when they get home they do all the necessary things, big or small.
Therefore, in many families, once the woman is too busy, the children will do all the housework.
Guo Xiuhua would occasionally say a few words about her envy of other families who had daughters.
According to most people's ideas, girls in the family can be used as labor.
There are not so many requirements for boys.
Liu Qingqing really didn't understand why every time she brought up this topic, she felt a mixture of sourness and pride in her mouth.
Since she didn't take a break during the New Year, Liu Qingqing didn't have to go back to Taoshan Village to celebrate the New Year.
I've been eating well recently and don't really want to swallow the wheat bran dumplings. Maybe I can have a good meal during the Chinese New Year.
But it still didn't suit her taste.
As early as a few days ago, she gave out the New Year's benefits - a bag of oranges and a bag of candies.
Liu Qingqing divided the dumplings into two and asked Grandpa Song, who was driving the ox cart, to take them back to her as a New Year's gift.
Oranges are not the same as the sugar oranges of later generations. She broke one off and ate it. It was so sour that it made her teeth ache, and the aftertaste was a bit bitter.
The candies were defective products from the supply and marketing cooperative. They were all crushed and pulverized, and none of them were in the shape of complete orange segments. A full bag held about five taels of sugar, and most of them were crumbs.
That's more or less what it meant. Anyway, all the villagers present at the time were very envious and praised Liu Qingqing for being filial.
