Chapter 50 Chapter 50 Should we go shopping together?
·
Liu Yue Wu Hua
After washing up, Xu Lin took out the porridge she cooked at Xu's house and ate it, thinking about what she would buy when she went to the commune without going to work today.
First of all, it is definitely inconvenient to have only an iron pot. She has to buy a coal stove. To buy a coal stove, you need coal.
Coal was in short supply, and she couldn't just buy it if she wanted to.
Xu Lin slapped her forehead and secretly regretted that she should have prepared more briquettes in Kyoto.
Alas, it was all the fault of the person who was secretly following her. Every time she went out, someone followed her, which made her afraid to go out to play and prepare more supplies.
Xu Lin's consciousness searched the space for a while, and she soon found a half-used coal stove in the warehouse.
That thing was collected in Brother Hu’s courtyard house.
Thinking of Brother Hu, I wonder if that guy was tricked. Those guys lost hundreds of boxes, so they must be very angry.
It's a pity that she didn't have the chance to see such a lively scene. It was all the fault of the follower.
Xu Lin tilted for a while, put the half-old coal stove aside, and then continued to pull it.
I gathered all the things I needed and took a walk around the commune, which was a way out.
Xu Lin finished her meal, washed the dishes, and was thinking about reading a book when a whistle came from the village. This was the first work whistle.
This time the whistle is blown to call everyone to get up. An hour later, the whistle will be blown a second time to notify everyone to go to work.
The work whistle will also be blown when work is over. Of course, if you finish your work before the whistle blows, you can go home early by asking the scorekeeper to record your work points.
If the task is not completed, you will have to work overtime or have your work points deducted.
Work points are life, and people in the village would rather work overtime than have their work points deducted.
As the whistle sounded, the Educated Youth Institute seemed to come alive, and movements came from various rooms.
Xu Lin followed the educated youths who were working out of the courtyard. Han Hong and Zhang Qiang were also walking with her.
As for Qin Fang and Su Liang, no one paid any attention to them, and as one night passed, Qin Fang's life experience spread among the educated youth.
I know what I should know, what I shouldn't know.
Everyone is still concerned about Qin Fang's identity as the spy's biological daughter, and they don't want to interact with her more.
Even Hu Changming calmed down and took advantage of the influence of a spy's daughter. He was afraid that he would die too slowly.
As for Su Liang, who couldn't figure out what to do, that was beyond their control.
The Su family has to worry about Su Liang's matter.
When she heard that Xu Lin was going to the commune, Qian Li reminded her that after receiving the grain, she could go to the village entrance and take a bullock cart there, and it only cost [-] cents each time.
For many villagers, even a dime is too expensive, but for educated youth, they can still accept a dime.
After Xu Lin thanked Qian Li for the advice, she followed Han Hong and Zhang Qiang to the brigade headquarters to collect food.
Each of their new educated youths can receive fifty kilograms of coarse grains. If they want fine grains, the amount will be less.
I'm afraid there won't be enough for them to eat.
But the three of them were all short of money, so they chose [-] kilograms of coarse grains and three kilograms of fine grains respectively.
After receiving the food, Han Hong and Zhang Qiang wanted Xu Lin to stay and look at the food, so they moved back. Unexpectedly, Xu Lin put a little force on her little hand and walked away.
The two men blushed at the action. It was because they had underestimated Xu Lin.
The three of them returned to the Educated Youth Home together. Xu Lin's expression remained unchanged. Han Hong and Zhang Qiang were out of breath from exhaustion. Han Hong couldn't help but ask:
"Xu Zhiqing, why are you so strong?"
"I have been very strong since I was a child. I started doing housework when I was four or five years old. When I was older, I started doing laundry, cooking and doing odd jobs to make money."
Xu Lin smiled bitterly when she mentioned the hard days of childhood, which made the two of them sympathize with Xu Lin even more.
Although he was born into a wealthy family, he was tortured by the Xu family and suffered a lot.
The three of them put their things back in the room and saw that Su Liang and Qin Fang hadn't gotten up yet. They made a tacit agreement not to disturb them, but went to the commune together.
Although they bought a lot of furniture yesterday, in fact they still lack a lot of things.
When they arrived at the entrance of the village, several women were already sitting on the bullock cart. When they saw the three people coming, they just nodded without any intention of communicating.
This is different from the plot Xu Lin read in the novel, where women in the village would come forward to gossip when they saw educated youths.
Look at these people on the bullock cart again, they have no intention of paying any attention to them.
Xu Lin paid five cents and asked about the return time. After knowing that if she missed the time, she had to walk back by herself, she sat down next to an aunt.
Han Hong and Zhang Qiang sat next to Xu Lin, with some space between them, carefully avoiding suspicion.
The oxcart set off after waiting for a few more minutes. Along the way, several ladies gathered together to gossip, talking about the East's parents and the West's parents.
I'm talking about whose mother-in-law is molesting her daughter-in-law again, whose daughter-in-law is scolding men behind closed doors again, whose son is cheating on others.
Otherwise, someone would go into the woods and chat about pornographic gossip, their eyes shining with excitement.
Xu Lin was confused after hearing this. This was the first time for Han Hong and Zhang Qiang to experience this kind of thing. They were so embarrassed that they were able to leave three rooms and one living room.
The bullock cart wandered around for about thirty minutes and arrived at the commune. Xu Lin and the other three got out of the cart as if they were running away, making several women laugh.
But the three of them didn't know that after they left, several women commented: "These three educated youths look good and quite honest."
If Xu Lin knew that someone commented on her honesty, she would laugh wildly with her arms akimbo for three days and three nights.
She is honest, so is there anyone else in this world who is honest?
The honest person Xu Lin came to the supply and marketing cooperative. The supply and marketing cooperative in Xiangyang Commune was incomparable with that in Kyoto. It was small in area, only a few rooms.
The items for sale are not complete.
Xu Lin originally wanted to take a look at bicycles and ride one back if there was one, but she didn't expect that there wasn't even a counter selling bicycles.
If you want to buy a bicycle, you have to go to the county town.
Xu Lin wanted to look at the coal stove again, but there was still no coal stove. She wanted to buy one in the county town.
Xu Lin looked at her with a black line. She didn't have this or that, so she couldn't take out many of her things openly.
After thinking about it, Xu Lin decided to go to the county seat.
Not only Xu Lin had this idea, but Han Hong and Zhang Qiang also had this idea.
The three of them got on the bus to the county seat almost without thinking. Fortunately, the three of them were lucky, and there happened to be a bus passing by when they arrived at the station.
After wandering around on the bus for more than half an hour, they finally arrived at the county town. Xu Lin rolled her eyes at the smell of the bus.
I got out of the car and ran a few steps before taking a few breaths of fresh air.
"Should we go shopping together?" Han Hong asked.
"No, I want to go shopping in the county town." Xu Lin shook her head decisively and refused. She was fed up with the bumpy car and decided to buy a bicycle first.
When she goes back, she rides a bicycle, affixes a magic walking talisman and a wind-blocking talisman, and she can ride back easily.
In the future, you can also ride a bicycle back and forth to the county seat, which is cool.
Zhang Qiang thought for a while, and after reminding Xu Lin to be careful, he separated from the two of them. It was obvious that Zhang Qiang also wanted to act alone.
