When Su Tian rode her bicycle to Songjia Village, she greeted the aunties along the way.
"Su, you've gone to get your package? This package is huge," an auntie asked.
"Yes, they're all winter clothes and blankets, nothing valuable," Su Tian explained.
Su Tian pushed the car to her room door, unloaded the package, and took it inside.
At this moment, He Hua, who was dressed up a little, walked to Su Tian's room and said softly, "Su Tian, can I borrow your bicycle? I want to go to the commune."
"I won't lend it," Su Tian said coldly.
"Why? How about I give you a penny and you lend it to me?" He Hua bargained.
"Give me ten yuan, and I'll lend it to you," Su Tian said, looking at He Hua.
"Hmph, you dare ask for ten yuan to borrow this beat-up bicycle? Are you crazy for money?" He Hua said angrily.
"Are you crazy? So what? If you're not going to give it to me, get lost. Don't stand in front of my room; it's bad luck for me," Su Tian said dismissively.
"Tsk, are you angry and jealous because I'm going to marry Brother Chen Gang? He's mine now. Humph..." After saying that, He Hua quickly ran away.
"Tch, coward."
Su Tian watched He Hua flee in panic, then turned and went into the room.
She opened the package and saw that it contained thick cotton quilts, her winter clothes, and several pairs of cotton shoes.
These shoes look like they're made for elderly people.
One of the blankets was quite worn out, with several patches on the surface.
To make the clothes look tattered, her mother deliberately added extra patches to the sheets and clothes, and intentionally made the stitches crooked and uneven, making it seem like she was a very rough seamstress.
Su Tian picked it up and estimated that the quilt weighed at least seven pounds.
Then, she found a note inside the package of clothes, saying that the quilts and clothes that looked old and tattered were for Grandpa Chen and the others, and instructing Su Tian to carefully give them to them.
Heh, Su Tian smiled happily. Her mother was so thoughtful; this way, others wouldn't mistreat the old man and his family.
Su Tian put the blankets and clothes for the old man aside, planning to take them to them later that evening.
"Brother Chen Gang, I just asked Su Tian to lend me her bicycle, but she refused."
"Then how do we go to the commune to get our marriage certificate?" He Hua asked coquettishly.
"I'll go ask the brigade leader to issue a letter of introduction for tomorrow, and I'll also ask for leave. I'll take the oxcart first thing tomorrow morning."
"Alright, you go ahead, I'm going back to my room first."
"Is Su Zhiqing there?" Widow Zhang called from outside.
"Su Tian heard Widow Zhang's voice and went out the door."
"Sister Zhang, what's up?"
"Su, here are some cookies and candies. You and Lu can take them and have some to share in the good fortune."
My cousin and I got our marriage certificate today. We're not planning on having a banquet, so I bought some candy and cookies to share with you all.
"Hehe... Congratulations to you, please wait a moment."
Su Tian rushed back to her room. She remembered that she had a lot of Double Happiness towels in her space, which cost two or three yuan each in the supermarket.
She took out two of them, put them in a bag, and handed them to Widow Zhang at the door.
"Here you are, Sister Zhang, these are two new towels as a wedding gift for you. I wish you both eternal happiness."
"This is too valuable, I cannot accept it."
“Take it, I have plenty more. My mom works in a textile factory, she has lots of these things,” Su Tian explained.
"Thank you very much," Widow Zhang said gratefully.
"You're welcome. I'll take the candy. You can go back now."
"Alright, then I'll head back now." Widow Zhang left with the towel.
Su Tian, carrying cookies and candy, went to Lu Xiao's room and called out to him, "Lu Xiao, are you there?"
When Lu Xiao heard Su Tian calling him, he quickly got up: "Su Zhiqing, what's wrong?"
"Here, have some. Aunt Zhang said to give you something sweet. She's the Aunt Zhang who saved her son from the water last time. She's getting married today."
"Okay, I'll eat one first."
Seeing his stingy manner, taking only one piece, Su Tian quickly took out a handful of candies from the bag and put them in his hand.
"Take your time eating, I'm going back now." Su Tian said, then turned and left.
The night is deep and quiet, the moon is bright and the stars are few.
Su Tian quickly walked to the cowshed carrying her blankets and clothes, and knocked on the door.
The old man, limping, immediately got up and opened the door, saying worriedly, "Girl, you've only been here a short time, why are you here again?"
Su Tian carried in the quilt and clothes and said softly, "I brought you winter clothes and a quilt, and there are also a few pairs of shoes. I just picked up the package from town today."
My mom asked me to bring these to you. She's worn these clothes and blankets out, but you can use them without worry.
"Your mother is so kind. My wife and I don't know how to thank you enough," the old man said, wiping away his tears.
"No need to thank me. You've all been so good to my dad, it's only right that they send you this little something," Su Tian comforted him.
"Heh, you little brat, always siding with outsiders, I'm afraid your parents will scold you."
"No, maybe my parents still consider you their elders."
"Sir, your foot doesn't look so swollen anymore."
"Yes, after I took the medicine to reduce the fever and then disinfected it, the swelling didn't look so bad anymore. It will be fine soon."
"That's good. As long as it's useful, that's fine. Don't skimp on the things I brought. Let me know if you're missing anything. I'm heading back now."
After saying that, Su Tian asked the old man to lock the door, then turned around and went to check on the kitchen.
