Small pieces of raw coal are more resistant to sunlight, so they are also more expensive, costing seven cents per pound.
If there is no coal supply certificate, the price of both types of coal will be increased by two cents.
Even in this era, locals and outsiders can see certain differences in prices.
The Lu family had a coal supply certificate, but there was a lot of coal piled under the eaves of the courtyard, so Tang Mei didn't give it to Fu Jingyou.
Fu Jingyou didn’t know about this thing before, and of course he didn’t want it.
With an industrial coupon and three yuan, Fu Jingyou bought a stove alone and took it home.
When Lu Miao got up in the evening, the stove in the room on the second floor was already lit.
The coal stove does not heat up as quickly as the chimney stove, but the temperature in the room is obviously much cooler.
Lu Miao was huddled under the quilt and didn't want to show her face. She put her arms outside the quilt and didn't feel cold anymore.
Fu Jingyou took a book from the small study room and read it by the window.
He sat hunched over the table and turned on a small desk lamp. Under the superposition of light and shadow, his broad shoulders and narrow waist became more obvious.
Just looking at the back makes me feel very charming.
Lu Miao lay on her side and held her chin up and asked him, "Where is the child?"
Fu Jingyou closed the book and turned around, "Are you awake?"
"Yes. ”
He approached the bed, handed her the clothes, and kissed her again.
"My aunt hasn't seen the two children for a long time. I thought carefully. Dad also likes them. They didn't make trouble, so I thought about it and let them stay down there."
Lu Miao Nodding, she hugged his neck and acted coquettishly.
“I used to have children around the stove, but now with my aunt helping me, I can finally have some free time to do what I want to do.”
Fu Jingyou is afraid. She caught a cold, so I took a gown and put it on her.
"We have money in our hands, and we must pay what we should pay, including food expenses and care fees."
There is only one girl in the Lu family, Lu Miao. A hundred years after the elders, the things of the Lu family, It must still be Lu Miao's.
But that was a hundred years later.
The two elders are still young now. As juniors, they still have to have the attitude they should have.
“Got it.”
Lu Miao nodded and put her legs on his lap like a lazy snake.
“I will tell them about buying a house later when we are eating.”
Fu Jingyou grabbed her white feet and put on socks, and finally scratched her soles:
“Can you agree?”
Fu Jingyou is very unsure.
Especially after seeing that the Lu family specially set aside the second floor for the young couple to live in.
If it were a temporary stay, why would it take so much trouble?
This obviously means that they want to stay here forever.
Lu Miao raised her eyebrows and asked him back:
“Are you happy living here?”
Fu Jingyou was slightly startled and quickly replied:
“As long as the family is together, it doesn’t matter where we live.”
After saying “Hey”, Lu Miao handed him a “ I knew you would say that" expression.
"They have to agree even if they don't agree. This area belongs to the South Second Ring Road. Our two schools are on the West Second Ring Road, far away."
Lu Miao said carefully Explain to him.
At this time, the main means of transportation, besides bicycles, is buses.
The roads are not the same as they will be in future generations. Many sections of the roads are still overgrown with weeds and covered with small courtyards.
A round trip takes at least two hours.
The earliest bus every day is at 6:30, and the school's normal morning class is at 7:00, so I can't even catch it.
Fu Jingyou nodded, gradually understanding.
I have saved a lot of money in the past two years, plus the 500 yuan from selling pigs and chickens before, and the Lu Miao Award. After deducting daily expenses, there are about 1,800 yuan in total.
On New Year’s Eve, Fu Jingyou and Lu Miao counted them together. Buying a house should be affordable.
I just don’t know what the housing prices in the city are like and how much I will have left after buying it.
This is related to whether the expenses will be tight in the future.
It will take three years to study in college, and I don’t know if there will be time to work part-time to earn some extra money...
Fu Jingyou was a little worried, but besides that, he had other things to worry about.
“If we really move to the school, would Auntie be willing to follow us?”
Lu Miao laughed, got dressed and got out of bed.
“She, I’m afraid you won’t let her go.”
The two of them went downstairs one after another, and there was already a bowl of rice on the table on the first floor.
In the afternoon, someone picked out tofu for sale in the alley. Tang Mei bought two pieces and cut them into a large pot together with cabbage and bacon in the evening.
“I just saw the lights on in the cracks of the upstairs windows in the courtyard, and I knew you two were up.”
Tang Mei wiped her hands cheerfully, and then asked:
"Xiaobao, you didn't bring many clothes when you came back this time? Apart from these few items for drying, Dabao and Dabao don't have any clothes to change?"
"It's hard to pick up the kids on the way, so they all come back by mail. They were mailed on the afternoon of the fourth day of the Lunar New Year. They should arrive in the next few days."
"Oh, that's okay. You and Xiaofu wake up and hurry up. Sit down and eat first! Don’t wait, it’s cold. It will get cold soon.”
Lu Miao didn’t feel any pressure and sat at the table to scoop some. I ate the tofu soup slowly.
Across the diagonal sofa and small table, Dabao and Erbao have become familiar with grandpa.
Lu Yuanzheng sat there with the two of them, and the two little ones went into battle one after another like they were playing tricks.
While Lu Miao was looking at it, Erbao had already handed it over with an enamel jar:
"Grandpa, grandpa drink water!"
"Hey, oh oh Okay, grandpa, let’s drink some water.”
Lu Yuanzheng took the teapot and rubbed it on Erbao’s head.
Erbao raised his head and stared at him with dark eyes. Seeing that he was not getting along, Erbao urged in a sweet voice:
"Grandpa, drink water, drink water!"
Lu Yuanzheng had already drank a full belly of water, and when the little baby was staring at him, he had no choice but to put the teapot to his mouth again and took a meaningful sip.
Lu Yuanzheng softened his expression and wanted to praise Erbao for being so sensible.
Before he could open his mouth to speak, Dabao walked around from the other side of the rattan table and lay on his lap.
"Ouch! Grandpa, grandpa, the water he drinks is really good!"
Dabao raised his round little face with a tiger-like head, and used all his "lifelong learning" since he was two years old, and the hard core praised him in return.
Lu Yuanzheng frowned and let out a slight "hiss".
It kind of means "Dabao, are you serious?"
Lu Miao smiled, and the vermicelli choked her throat. She coughed and almost couldn't carry it.
"Cough cough, cough cough, cough cough cough -"
"Eat slowly."
Fu Jingyou frowned and patted her gently to calm her down. He looked a little unhappy.
Lu Miao came over and pushed him gently, winking and acting coquettishly, and his face looked better.
Tang Mei brought a bowl and said she wanted to feed Dabao and Erbao.
Lu Miao said: "Ignore them for now, just serve them some and let them eat by themselves."
The two small spoons are already very handy, but those who eat always like to play, and rice grains will get them. Everywhere.
But it doesn’t matter, just clean up after spilling. The important thing is to exercise.
Children, there is only so much in the bowl, and they cannot waste too much.
Tang Mei nodded and filled some small bowls with cabbage and tofu for Dabao and Erbao.
I took a low stool and let them sit on the small rattan table to eat.
