Chapter 069 Uninvited Guests
Lin Wanxia was very obedient.
She first rode the bicycle borrowed from Grandpa Sun's house to the bank in the island city to deposit the money, and then sent the passbook and IOU to Chen Bin's house.
Chen Bin's father was very puzzled why Lin Wanxia was so anxious to send money.
Lin Wanxia said seriously: "I'm afraid someone will steal my money."
Chen Bin's father thought Lin Wanxia was joking, and he accepted it after refusing.
He also wrote a receipt for Lin Wanxia.
Lin Wanxia took the receipt and went to the supply and marketing cooperative to buy some fruits, vegetables and two kilograms of ribs.
The grain coupons were left for her by Jiang Sinian. She
planned to go back and improve the food with Xingxing.
She didn't know what Xingxing's food was like, but the food for the crew at sea was really hard to describe.
Lin Wanxia thought that after Chen Bin delivered the ship, she would definitely put a refrigerator or freezer there first.
No matter how delicious the seafood is, eating it for ten days or half a month can hurt you.
After returning home, she first inspected the place and cleaned up everything inside and outside.
They are all half-grown children, so it is normal that they are not good at work.
Xingxing laughed guiltily.
Lin Wanxia put down her things, sat on the sofa, and called Xingxing over with a fierce face.
When Xingxing nervously moved to her, she hugged him and kissed him on the face, "Little Xingxing, I miss you so much."
"I miss you, too." Xingxing pouted and started crying.
"Why are you crying again? Weren't you very happy just now?"
"I'm happy, and I miss you." Xingxing sobbed.
"You are quite clear about the distinction. Come, tell me, how have you been these past few days?"
Xingxing still couldn't learn to speak well, and he was talking about this and that. However,
it didn't prevent Lin Wanxia from understanding that he was living a very comfortable life.
He ate and drank with his friends during the day, and when it was time to eat, he would either go to his friends' homes for meals, or go to his grandparents' home for meals.
In the evening, his grandparents would bring their little grandson to accompany him, and clean the battlefield and do the laundry for him.
Anyway, except for the fact that Jiang Sinian, his biological father, and her stepmother were not with him, he was quite happy.
"It's okay during the day, but I miss you especially at night. Lin Wanxia, can you take me with you next time you go out to sea?"
If it were in the past, Lin Wanxia would no doubt nod without hesitation.
But this time, having just experienced the baptism of a storm, Lin Wanxia really couldn't say anything that was against her will.
She touched Xingxing's little head and said, "Okay, since you miss me so much, I will cook for you some sweet and sour pork ribs."
"Oh yeah! There are sweet and sour pork ribs to eat." Xingxing cheered.
Lin Wanxia smiled. The world of children is so simple, and they are easily satisfied.
Cut the ribs into pieces, blanch them in water, boil them until they are soft, drain the water and let them dry.
Lin Wanxia first prepares the sweet and sour sauce and puts it aside.
Heat the oil in a pan again.
Heat the pan with cold oil, add rock sugar and stir-fry the sugar color, then add the ribs and stir-fry, pour the sweet and sour sauce on them and serve.
The soft, sweet and sour ribs are very appetizing.
The mother and son ate a large plate.
There were also fresh stir-fried choy sum and cold mixed seasonal vegetables.
Finally, a bowl of thick white rice porridge.
For a person who has been drifting on the sea for ten days, it is simply a great enjoyment.
After eating and drinking enough, hugging the soft stars, I slept from noon to dark.
As for Zhao Tiezhu and others, I will talk about it after she wakes up.
"Xia Xia, are you home?"
"Xia Xia, I'm your Aunt Liu, are you there?"
Lin Wanxia opened her eyes reluctantly, "Yes!" With
half-closed eyes, she staggered to the door of the living room, opened the door, and woke up instantly.
There were more than a dozen young girls and wives standing outside the door, each of them holding or hugging something in their hands, anyway, they were not empty-handed.
Aunt Liu was the wife of Captain Liu.
As soon as he saw Lin Wanxia, he hung the basket in his hand on Lin Wanxia's hand, "Xia Xia, these are eggs laid by our chickens, you can keep them."
"These are duck eggs laid by our ducks."
"These are old hens that we have raised for three years. You can eat them yourself or raise them to lay eggs."
"This is the crab sauce I made myself."
"Here are two cans of maltose for you. I heard it is a rare thing. I don't know if it is good or not, but the waiter said it was good, so I bought it."
"..."
Lin Wanxia was no longer sleepy, and there was no chance for her to interrupt.
After saying nothing more, her arms were full of bamboo baskets, and she was holding two buckets of maltose and two pieces of cloth in her arms. At her feet squatted a hen with tied legs and clucking, as well as two gray rabbits and a little wolfdog.
"I appreciate your kindness. But I really can't accept these things." Lin Wanxia wanted to refuse but didn't know where to start.
"What's there to not accept?" Aunt Wang pretended to be angry, "Xia Xia, if you don't accept it, it means you think our gift is too little. I heard from your uncle Wang that if it weren't for you, they would have been drowned. There are six people with a boat, and I don't have much to buy these things. I came in a hurry this time, I will prepare a big gift for you after the New Year."
"That's right! You saved my man's life. His life is certainly worth more than an old hen. But our family is a little short of money. We will come again after we settle the money with the Zhao family in a few days."
"Although you didn't save our head of the family's life. But this time going out to sea with you is the most fish our family has caught in the past two years. We came here sincerely to thank you."
"..."
You said one thing after another, you pushed me and I pushed you back.
She pushed Lin Wanxia, who had just stepped out of the door, back into the house.
They stuffed the chicken, rabbit and dog into the house and turned around and left.
Lin Wanxia: "..."
Run a little slower.
Let me know who sent these things, right?
As a person who had changed her mind, she was not so quick to react and could not make sense of the situation.
A dozen people left in a hurry after putting down their things and talking and pushing each other.
Only Lin Wanxia was
left making a mess. "Okay!" Lin Wanxia said to herself, "Anyway, I haven't heard anyone say their last name is Zhao. They are probably all honest fishermen who follow the Zhao family's fleet."
She sorted out everyone's "enthusiasm", put the hen into the chicken coop that had been empty for a long time, and found two broken fishing nets to build a temporary nest for the rabbit.
As for the puppy, Xingxing loved it very much. He held it in his arms as soon as he opened his eyes and refused to let go.
Lin Wanxia divided all the eggs into several portions, and then took Xingxing to thank the people who had taken care of him and fed him in the past few days.
In interpersonal relationships, you give me one yuan, and I give you 80 cents to one yuan and two.
Nowadays, the living standards of ordinary people are not high. Eggs, malted milk and other things are good things at home, which are luxury goods that people usually don’t eat or buy.
Similarly, an extra set of bowls and chopsticks means that other people in the family may not have enough to eat.
Lin Wanxia had to go to the door to thank him.
When she returned home, she found that there were uninvited guests at home.
Zhao Tiezhu led a few people waiting at the door of her house.
