Chapter 47 How shameless, why should I show you my things?
Song Wei nodded in agreement, then went shopping elsewhere and bought another piece of cloth. He didn't ask for a ticket, so the price was more expensive than the one from the supply and marketing cooperative, and it was a slightly defective cloth.
But even so, many people came to ask about the price of cloth. When Song Wei came over, it was already the last two pieces.
The people who came out to sell cloth should be the family members of the textile factory workers, and they brought a total of three pieces of cloth.
Song Wei bought one of the pieces without even negotiating the price and ran away. Seeing that the piece of cloth was missing, the others immediately started snatching up the remaining piece, but they all bought it by the foot.
After that, Song Wei bought a few more pairs of socks, including all the ones he wore, and left as he didn't need anything else for the time being.
When we arrived at the address mentioned by the aunt, it was also a relatively hidden alley.
She is not afraid of being tricked into beating her. Who else can beat her?
I walked in swaggeringly. Fortunately, the lady there really wanted to make a deal.
“We’re here, the cornmeal is here, take a look.”
When the aunt saw her, she pulled the person in and showed her the corn noodles in the bag.
Bao rice noodles are not as delicate as flour, and the corn noodles in this era are basically pressed with stone mills, so they are rougher.
In a few years, this kind of corn flour will be used as feed for pigs, but now, this corn flour is already a very good food compared to sweet potatoes.
"How much?"
The aunt held out two fingers: "This is very hungry, and it has been ground into flour so there is nothing to lose. It costs at least 2 cents."< br>
A total of more than forty kilograms is not too small.
Not wanting to waste time, Song Wei nodded in agreement.
This trip brought a lot of things. Song Wei put the rice in the basket, cornmeal, cloth and socks bought from the black market, and finally covered it with an old cloth.
She found another place to wash her face, and finally walked back with her things on her back.
At this time, there were already many people on the carriage of the safety brigade at the county gate, and everyone was carrying their shopping in large and small bags.
Some of the curious ones kept turning their eyes to look at what other people were buying next to them.
"Hei Dan, what did Song Zhiqing buy?"
"Song Zhiqing is very nice to you. He even bought you shoes. These are new shoes. "
Someone stared at the new shoes on Heidan's feet and spoke in a sour tone. The one who loves to take advantage wished he could take off the shoes on his feet and take them back to his children to wear.
Heidan held his feet and looked at the aunts and ladies warily.
"Let's see what Song Zhiqing bought here."
As he said that, he was about to grab the basket next to Heidan.
Heidan guarded anxiously, his little face turned red: "Go away, no!"
"It's not yours, why are you guarding it in such a hurry? It is indeed a Some people give birth to things that no one cares about!"
The aunt even wanted to push Hei Dan away violently.
"What are you doing?"
The uncle who was driving the carriage came over and scolded: "This is Song Zhiqing's thing. If you look at it, just move around." He would not dare to curse without scruples at the man driving the bullock cart.
Her expression was sarcastic: "I'm not curious. I won't take it after just one look."
"Since Auntie is so curious, let us see what you bought."
Song Wei's voice came, and Heidan turned his head and looked over in surprise.
The girl was carrying a basket on her back. The contents of the basket looked full, but it was covered with cloth so that no one could see clearly what was inside.
But she carried it very easily and it didn't look like a heavy object.
Song Wei touched Heidan’s head and looked at the aunt with a smile.
"Show us how much money Auntie has on you." The Auntie immediately put her hands on her hips and yelled arrogantly.
"How big is your face? Why should I show it to you!"
The smile on Song Wei's face fell and she gave the aunt a sarcastic look.
"That's right, how shameless, why should I show you my things?"
After saying that, he rolled his eyes rudely.
The auntie was so angry that her face turned red.
The old man driving the cattle looked at Song Wei with a depressed look. Song Zhiqing had too many things, and this old man couldn't bear it.
But he had received a white-flour steamed bun from Song Wei before, and he was too embarrassed to say anything more.
We were about to go back when everyone was here. Song Wei said very considerately: "Uncle, I can't sit down anymore. I'll just carry the bag on my back and walk to follow you."
< br>Carrying more than a hundred kilograms of stuff on her back was nothing to her. She would inevitably be spotted by prying eyes on the cattle herding car, so it was better to carry it on her back to be safe.
The uncle probably didn't expect that she would take the initiative to make this request, so he rubbed his hands in embarrassment for a moment.
“You have a lot of things, why don’t you put them up.”
Song Wei shook his head: “It’s okay, there are mostly clothes, bedding and the like sent by my brother. Although it looks like a lot of things, it’s actually not heavy.”
Seeing how relaxed she was carrying it, everyone believed it.
The uncle didn’t insist anymore.
Hei Dan also wanted to come down and follow her, but was stopped.
"Sit tight, you still have to look at the things in the car."
Hei Dan immediately thought of the aunt who wanted to see the things in the backpack, and did not insist on going down with her. Walked.
In fact, the speed of the ox cart was not as fast as Song Wei's feet. She followed slowly beside the ox cart, and the gossipy ladies on the ox cart couldn't help but ask.
"Song Zhiqing, didn't you say that Hei Dan was working for you? Why did you dress him and buy shoes for him? You must have suffered a huge loss."< br>
Song smiled and said: "It's not abusing him by asking him to help me work. It's almost winter. If he doesn't have a pair of shoes or clothes and gets cold and sick in the winter at such a young age, then I won't have to spend any money." Let him go to the doctor and spend all the extra money."
The lady who asked the question smiled dryly: "That's right, too."
But that's it. Too wasteful.
"Song Zhiqing is much kinder than the Lin family."
The uncle who drove the carriage interrupted, saying that he couldn't stand the Lin family.
These women are real. Hei Dan's poor kid finally found someone who treats him well. He is so talkative because he is afraid that Hei Dan's life will be too good.
"Speaking of the Lin family, Song Zhiqing, is what you said that day true or false?"
Although Song Wei explained that she was just joking later that day, everyone was quite curious, and some An old man who was about the same age as Mrs. Lin came forward and said that Mrs. Lin was really close to other men when she was young.
"My mother-in-law said that Mrs. Lin was married from the town. How could she, a girl from the town, fall in love with Mr. Lin? I also heard that she got pregnant not long after she got married."< br>
“I heard that Lin Dahai was born prematurely.”
Song Wei's eyes widened a bit, wasn't it? She just said it casually, there was something really wrong with Mrs. Lin.
So I raised my ears and listened with relish.
The aunts and ladies on the oxcart talked about the news they knew.
“Speaking of which, among the sons of the Lin family, Mrs. Lin’s favorite is Lin Dahai.”
“Several other sons of the Lin family have the shadow of Old Man Lin. Dahai and Old Man Lin don’t look alike.”
"Old Mrs. Lin also asked Lin Laosan to work as a cow and horse to earn money, and finally used the money to buy Lin Dahai a job."
