Feng Xiaomei glared at Ye Zhiqiu, then got up, put on her sweater, and went to get him some toiletries.
Ye Zhiqiu raised his eyebrows and smiled like a fool.
The two of them went to wash up, sitting close to each other. After such a night, Ye Zhiqiu began to like being close to Feng Xiaomei, and Feng Xiaomei didn't seem to resist his approach.
After all, there are more intimate things, and this kind of intimacy is nothing.
After washing up, Feng Xiaomei ran to Chen Yuqing's room, but found that she was not at home.
When she came out, she said in surprise: "My mother is not at home. It's only eight o'clock. I don't know where she went."
Ye Zhiqiu smiled and said, "Aunt Chen may have gone out to buy something. Don't worry, she may be back soon."
As soon as the words fell, there was a sound at the door, and soon Chen Yuqing walked in.
She was carrying a lot of things, and when she saw the two people coming over, she smiled and explained, "Someone came to inform us today that the train and road are open, and they urgently pulled supplies over here.
We were told to line up to purchase various supplies, so I ran down to line up. Wow, there were so many people, it took me almost an hour to get my turn.
Feng Xiaomei asked happily, "Mom, what did you buy?"
"They're all vegetables and grains, mostly canned goods. These are supplies outside the rations, so it would be a waste not to buy them."
Ye Zhiqiu also found it strange. After asking, he found out that because of the snowstorm, the supplies from outside could not come in so quickly. So some war supplies were urgently mobilized to supply the residents in the capital.
After breakfast, Ye Zhiqiu said to the two of them, "Aunt Chen, Xiaomei, since the bus service has resumed, I'll go back first so that my mother and the others don't worry."
Chen Yuqing nodded and said, "Okay, the temperature is starting to rise now. If it keeps going like this, we'll probably have to go back to work tomorrow. We need to go back and get ready."
Feng Xiaomei hurried back to the room used as a warehouse, packed some cigarettes and alcohol, and asked Ye Zhiqiu to take them back to Ye Tianya and Wang Fugui.
He gladly accepted it, said goodbye to the two of them and left.
Zhongguancun is actually very desolate and is just beginning to be developed. Since construction is impossible in winter, everything has come to a standstill.
There was no bus passing through Sanlitun, so Ye Zhiqiu took a bus and it took more than an hour to get back to Sanlitun.
He returned home with the bag. In the yard, Ye Wubing, Qian Yuanjun and their two younger sisters were playing snowball fights. As soon as Ye Zhiqiu came in, he was hit by Ye Bailu.
He smiled and said, "Well, little sister, you have no moral principles and actually attacked me!"
“Big Brother!”
"Brother, you're back. Let's have a snowball fight together!"
Ye Zhiqiu shook his head and said, "Alright, go ahead and have fun. Don't get cold. Big Brother just got back from over an hour's drive and needs to warm up inside."
He returned to the living room. At this time, the five of them were listening to opera on the radio. Wang Xiaolan and the other two would sing along from time to time.
Almost everyone knows a few words about this. Entertainment is so scarce in this era.
After greeting everyone, Ye Zhiqiu took out the things and distributed them to the three people. He himself had enough, as he still had seven or eight packs of cigarettes in his space.
Qian Dafu took the Daqianmen cigarette given by Ye Zhiqiu and said happily, "My nephew is so good! I can also smoke the cadres' cigarettes!"
Ye Tianya also said happily: "Son, after you joined the army, Dad had a very comfortable first year. You couldn't keep those cigarettes if you didn't smoke them. Except for some I used as gifts for you, the rest were for us to smoke.
But after I finish smoking, I can only hope that Xiaomei will give me some good cigarettes. Your mother is not so generous. She is generous by not letting me smoke tobacco leaves. "
Wang Xiaolan rolled her eyes at Ye Tianya and said unhappily, "What's the difference between smoking economy cigarettes and good cigarettes? Aren't they both just burning money? Your salary is so low, and what about the things for the eldest and second son's weddings, and the third son's dowry? What doesn't cost money? You don't know how to live at all. Calculate how much it's going to cost!"
Ye Tianya said confidently, "Look, the eldest brother has everything. We just need money for a banquet. In the future, the second brother will follow his eldest brother's example, buy his own bicycle and watch, and find a partner as good as his eldest sister-in-law. How can we be short of money?"
Wang Fugui said cheerfully, "Alright, alright, what's there to argue about? Diligence and thrift are virtues. But there's no need to overdo it. Xiaolan, you should give Tianya a few more dollars for pocket money in the future."
Ye Zhiqiu also said with a smile: "Hehe, mother, you are really something. Don't be so stingy in your life. Don't let Xiaomei marry in later. If you are so stingy, she will definitely not be willing to come back to live here more often.
You have to know that everyone at home pampers her. Even her father's classmates would think of giving her a share of any good things they had."
Wang Xiaolan hurriedly said, "Boss, when did Mom become stingy with Xiaomei? I'm very generous to her. How could I be stingy with such a beloved daughter-in-law?"
"Don't worry, Boss. Your mother is only stingy with me, but generous to others."
"Nephew, your mother is not a stingy person. She won't talk nonsense like that."
Faced with the condemnation of the crowd, Ye Zhiqiu quickly begged for mercy and it took a long time to coax Wang Xiaolan to calm down.
Then he leaned over to Wang Fugui and whispered, "Grandpa, now that the trains and roads are open, do we still need to tinker with anything?"
Wang Fugui shook his head and said, "We've already taken out a batch of military supplies, so there's no need to take the risk of dealing with them. Our unit is different. Doing things like this requires taking risks. Since we've solved the urgent problem, let's forget about dealing with them."
Ye Zhiqiu thought the same thing, mainly because the company had stricter requirements on the source of materials. So unless it was absolutely necessary, he really didn't want to tinker with this matter!
So he smiled and nodded, saying, "That's good. Actually, I asked over there, but they can't come up with much. A few hundred kilograms is fine, but they said they can't get together thousands of kilograms."
Wang Fugui nodded and thought that this was right. If thousands of kilograms of vegetables could be transported in intact, then who must be protecting these people to enable them to do this?
Hearing that they could only muster a few hundred kilograms, Wang Fugui felt relieved. This proved that they were just small fry. The unit was aware of this situation. However, the capital city did have a real need for this, so they wouldn't bother with these people.
Generally speaking, if the public security system catches someone, they will be caught. The unit will not get involved in these matters anyway.
"Sister Lan, are you home? Hey, Xiao Bailu, are you guys having a snowball fight? Is your mom home? The neighborhood office asked her to notify her because she has to attend a meeting this afternoon."
"Okay, Aunt Qin, thank you for coming to inform my mother. Come inside and warm up."
"Xiao Bailu, just tell your mother. I still have to inform other colleagues, so I won't be sitting inside. Remember to tell your mother!"
