Chapter 201 Taking Grandpa out for a ride
"Grandma, my brother is biased. He is usually reluctant to give me these golden chicken biscuits."
Grandma said with a "hahaha" smile: "I The eldest grandson doesn’t want to eat for you, it must be because you are too greedy.”
“Grandma, why are you like this?” Li Jialin said, stamping her feet.
“What the eldest granddaughter, grandma said something wrong?”
At this time, Ye Xin was making up for the damage and said: "Mom, you are right, this girl is greedy."
Soon, the things on the tricycle were unloaded, and the old man got on and prepared to leave. At that time, the uncle's family came over.
I must have heard from others that they were coming, so I came to take a look.
"Second brother, are the younger siblings back?"
"Eldest brother."
"Uncle!"
"They are all back." The uncle said to Li Jiayi and his three siblings with a smile.
"Yes, uncle."
After everyone said hello to each other, the uncle asked: "What are you going to do?"
"Uncle, grandpa is going to do it. Let’s try my tricycle. I’ll take Grandpa for a spin around the commune.”
"Going to the commune?"
If the uncle wants to come, he will go to the commune at this time and it will probably be afternoon when he comes back.
"Yes!"
"Brother Jiayi, I also want to go to the commune." Cousin Li Jiafen came over and took his arm and said.
“Okay, get in the car!”
"I want to go too." Li Cheng quickly ran to the car.
Then came Li Chengqian.
"Dad, let's go then. You can chat with uncle."
"I know, come back soon."
"Okay."
Li Jia kicked the tricycle, drove it and walked outside.
Li Aiguo pointed to the tricycle leaving in surprise and asked: "Aimin, this is oil-burning!"
"Yes!"
"Did you do it? "As far as Li Aiguo is concerned, only his younger brother has this ability.
“How can I not do that! This is Jiayi Nong’s work.”
Hearing what Li Aimin said, the uncle shook his head and said: "Jiayi is so awesome."
At this moment, Ye Xin said: "Mom, it's getting late, I'm cooking with my sister-in-law Go and rest here."
"Together. Let’s do it! It’s tiring enough to run so far, and I asked you to help with the cooking.”
“Mom, I’m not tired. What’s so tiring about riding in the car?”
Let’s talk about Li Jiayi. On the other side, I took the old man, my two cousins and my cousin to the commune.
As for the eldest sister and the second sister, they did not come with them. For the two of them, the commune was not interesting.
And the eldest sister has to stay and help with the cooking.
"Wow! Plus one, this tricycle goes so fast." Li Chengqian shouted.
"Brother, sit tight and don't fall."
"I got it."
"Grandson, how long does it take to get from home to the commune?" the old man asked.
Li Jia thought for a moment and said, "About twenty minutes!"
"So fast?" the old man asked in surprise.
You must know that riding a bullock cart takes more than two hours! This tricycle can actually get there in twenty minutes.
“Grandpa, you can’t compare this to an ox cart, how fast it is!”
The old man nodded and said, "That's true."
It was exactly what Li Jiayi said, and he arrived at the commune in about 20 minutes.
Li Chengqian is a little better, because he is now studying in the commune and is quite familiar with the commune.
Even Li Cheng has been to the commune before, but Li Jiafen is different. This is his first time here.
Everything feels very fresh and looks better than in the village.
At this time, there was a shop selling jelly in front, and Li Jia drove over with a tricycle.
“Here are five bowls of jelly.”
The jelly at this time is similar to the liangpi of later generations, but different.
The jelly at this time is made from real pea flour. It is combed into strips with a comb, and it can be eaten directly after adding salted garlic paste.
It tastes very good and the jelly is also strong. It is a rare snack.
It only exists in communes in the countryside, but you can't even think of it in the city.
And because it is made by ordinary people at home, no tickets are required, but the price is not cheap, a bowl costs 20 cents.
Of course, the main reason is because the bowl is larger, not like a small bowl.
Soon the store prepared five bowls and poured them with garlic paste.
"Come on, grandpa, didn't you just say you wanted to eat pea jelly last time? How about trying it."
"Okay, let me try it."
Then Li Jiayi also sat down and took a bite. It tasted really good.
“Brother Jiayi, it’s delicious.”
Li Jiayi touched the little girl’s head and said, “If it’s delicious, eat more. If it’s not enough, ask for another bowl.”
“Enough is enough.”
Soon, several people finished eating the jelly. Li Jiayi paid one yuan, turned around and asked, "What else do you want to eat?"
"No need, brother Jiayi." Li Chengqian said quickly. .
You must know that the jelly he just ate cost 20 cents. If he had known it was so expensive, he would not eat it.
Two cents may be nothing to Li Jiayi, but to the two cousins, it is a lot of money.
"It's okay, brother, just say whatever you want to eat. I have money." "Grandson, I remember there is a dog meat seller at the east end of the commune. Go buy some! But I'll give you the money."
"No need, grandpa, let me give it to you!" After speaking, Li Jia started the tricycle and drove towards the east end of the commune.
But I turned around and didn’t see it.
“Grandpa, no!”
“Maybe it’s closed!”
"It's possible."
He didn't buy dog meat, and Li Jiayi didn't go back directly, but started wandering around the commune.
Unfortunately, I turned around and couldn’t find anything delicious.
Finally, Li Jia parked his tricycle at the entrance of the supply and marketing cooperative.
Li Jiayi turned around and asked: "Grandpa, what do you want, I'll buy you some."
"No, I don't want anything. I want to see what your brother and sister want, and you can help buy some."
"Yes!" Li Jia nodded and got out of the tricycle. Come down.
"Big brother, second brother, little sister, let's go! Let's go in and have a look. Just tell us what you want."
"No, I don't want anything." Cousin Li Chengqian shook his head and said.
“I don’t want it either.”
"It's okay, I have money."
"Jiayi brother, we really don't want it."
Not only the two cousins, but also the cousin Li Jiafen looked confused. She really I want something, but I don’t want Brother Jiayi to spend money.
Of course Li Jiayi saw it, so he took his cousin down and said, "Since the eldest brother and the second brother don't want it, let's go. Brother Jiayi will buy it for you."
The two came to the supply and marketing In the club, Li Jiafen was a little dazzled by the dazzling array of things inside.
This was the first time she saw so many things for sale.
"Jiafen, what do you want?"
"Brother Jiayi, I want a headband."
"I want a headband! No problem."< br>
Li Jiayi turned around and asked the salesperson: "Auntie, do you sell headbands here?"
"Yes, what color do you want?"
"Are there many colors?"
"Yes!"
"Then get a few of each color. "
"Brother Jiayi, just one." Li Jiafen quickly took Li Jiayi's hand and said.
"It's okay. You can put it away when you buy it later and take it out when you need it."
"But..."
"It's okay. Brother Jiayi is rich."
< br>In the end, Li Jiayi not only bought her a hair tie, but also a comb, a comb, and even two handkerchiefs.
Although handkerchiefs require cloth tickets, this is nothing to Li Jiayi.
He had no shortage of these things, and in the end he bought her a lot of snacks, basically the kind that didn't require a ticket.
Because those who need tickets already have them, such as White Rabbit toffee and Golden Rooster biscuits.
Of course, Li Jiayi did not forget the old man and bought a few cartons of Qianjin cigarettes.
These cigarettes are cheap, so no tickets are required. As for those who do need tickets, he has many in his space, and he brought some with him this time.
It’s a pity that the old man refused to quit smoking, which is why he bought a few more Qianjin cigarettes.
Of course, he didn't forget about his two cousins. He bought them a lot of pens and notebooks, at least he didn't need to buy them when he went to school.
This will happen in future generations. If you give these things to others, they may hate you for the rest of their lives, but in this era, as long as they are students, there is no one who does not like these things.
After paying the money, Li Jiayi hugged the things and said to his cousin who was holding a headband and a crotch and giggling: "Let's go!"
"Okay brother Jiayi. "
Back on the tricycle, when he saw the things Li Jiayi bought, the old man said: "You brat, you know how to spend money, why did you buy so many things?"
"Grandpa, it didn't cost much!"
"You!"
I have long known from my second son that his eldest grandson has the ability to spin circles, so Li Laogen also I didn’t say much.
He finally saw that this grandson could not only make money, but also spend money.
Just these things, if they don’t cost ten or eight yuan, you can’t buy them at all.
A trip to the street would cost only ten or eight yuan, which was really unacceptable to Li Laogen.
It is not easy for rural people to make money! After working hard for a year, in addition to some food, an income of tens of dollars is already considered a lot.
And these tens of dollars have to be saved for later use. It can be said that it is not much money spent throughout the year.
For example, the grandson's last trip to the street cost only ten or eight yuan, and the money he made this year was not enough to make several trips to the street.
"Brother, does my hairband look good? Brother Jiayi bought it for me." Li Jiafen said relatedly.
"It looks good." Li Chengqian said with a smile.
Li Jiayi knew that in less than a day, the whole village would know that he bought a headband for the little girl.
To city people, this thing is nothing and does not cost a lot of money, but to children in rural areas, it is very precious.
Because in rural areas there are very few people who spend money to buy headbands for their children, so just find anything to tie them.
"Grandpa, do you have anything else to buy?" Li Jiayi asked.
"There's nothing to buy, go back quickly!" The old man was really afraid that his eldest grandson would spend money again!
"Well, since there is nothing to buy, let's go back. I guess the meal will be almost ready when we get back."
"Well! Let's go quickly."
As soon as Li Jia started the tricycle, he rushed back. At this time, Li Laogen also breathed a sigh of relief.
Fortunately, his heart is good, otherwise he would have had a heart attack.
PS: Please recommend monthly tickets! Thanks!
