Chapter 54 Pensive
After greetings.
Peng Chunhua said: "I have often seen Grandma Qin making this these days. My mother-in-law said that you can sell it to a supply and marketing cooperative. How much can you sell it for?"
Li Qiao was a little shocked, did grandma tell them? "One. Ah Jin knows, you can ask him, he sent it there, and I don't know the situation." She was about to blurt out, but turned a corner.
If grandma said so, Peng Chunhua would not ask her for the price.
Didn’t you come to ask grandma because you couldn’t ask her?
Peng Chunhua murmured in her heart, the old and the young all pushed the matter on Qin Jin, deliberately not wanting to tell her, afraid that she would rob their family of getting rich?
Fellows from the village, this is too stingy!
She smirked and said, "I'll see him tomorrow and ask."
After a few perfunctory sentences, Peng Chunhua left with an excuse. Li Qiao sent him out, and then closed it again.
Old Mrs. Qin: "It's a good thing you didn't tell her the truth, otherwise, your aunt's family was so envious that they couldn't sleep."
Li Qiao suddenly became a little worried: "I have to ask my classmates later, if the vases we made are seen by villagers in the supply and marketing cooperatives, will it affect him?"
"Success, it's not easy to have a regular job now, so don't make people lose their jobs." Mrs. Qin said.
The grandparents and grandchildren were so busy that they didn't finish work until the evening.
It was getting dark and Qin Jin hadn't come back yet.
Li Qiao shines a flashlight in the direction of the village entrance.
"Li Qiao."
Li Qiao turned the flashlight, and the light fell on the person who came.
It is Du Xinxin and Wang Nannan.
The two looked tired, their trousers were covered with mud, their hands were in pockets, and a book was in their arms.
"Are you off work yet? Why didn't our Ajin come back with you?" Li Qiao said.
"The two of us are in charge of cooking and came back early. They were early. By the way, did you learn English this week? Can you teach us how to read here? Save us from running to us in the cold at night."
"Okay." Li Qiao went into the house and lit the kerosene lamp, and poured a cup of hot water for each of them, and put sugar extravagantly. Organize the notes you need to take and set aside.
Then he took out the English book and taught the two of them to read the new knowledge.
The old lady Qin next door was about to fall asleep. She sat up in shock when she heard the sound of reading. After recognizing the voice of her granddaughter-in-law, she raised her ears seriously.
Li Qiao finished the reading, and said softly: "Have you written it down?"
"Remember, I've bothered you so late, but you are still willing to teach me patiently. I really don't know how to thank you."
"It's just a little effort, it's not worth mentioning. Do you want to continue working tomorrow?" Li Qiao said.
"Well, I heard that it will take a month. After the end, it's time to plant peanuts and corn in the spring. The seeds are in the ground, and there is still work to do. Hey! I really envy you can concentrate on school."
Li Qiao didn't know how to comfort him, so he said dryly, "You can be a master if you suffer from hardships. First, bitterness and then sweetness."
"Haha, that's how we comfort ourselves, it's getting late, let's go."
"Okay." Li Qiao sent the two of them out, telling them, "Be careful on the road."
"Hey. You go back, it's quite cold outside."
Li Qiao waited for their figures to be engulfed by the darkness before turning around and entering the yard and locking the door behind them.
He went straight to the kitchen shed, added two handfuls of firewood to the stove, threw two sweet potatoes in, and left it for Qin Jin to eat when he came back, before going into the house to wash and sleep.
I don’t know when Qin Jin will leave work. When she woke up the next day, there was no one in the room. There was a stack of notebooks on the table, sent by the educated youth early in the morning?
Li Qiao got dressed and got up and asked Mrs. Qin: "Grandma, has Jin gone to work yet?"
"Yeah, I just left for less than half an hour. Just now, Educated Youth Han sent books. Check to see if there are any missing. If there are missing, someone will come back to cook at noon. You can go and get them."
Li Qiao: "Not less." She felt relieved when Han Ting handled the affairs, in fact, they are all pretty good.
Unlike the people in the village, they always care about people.
Wang Nannan looked down on her a little at first, and always argued with her, but after getting along for a long time and getting familiar with her, it doesn't matter so much.
"You should take a minibus to school today, it's more than ten miles away, and it's inconvenient to walk with sacks." Mrs. Qin said.
Li Qiao also had this plan, and closed the door with Mrs. Qin during the day to continue weaving.
At sunset, Li Qiao packed his schoolbag, took a week's worth of dry food, and carried handmade sacks on his back. He bid farewell to Mrs. Qin and went to school alone.
Seeing her, she was very enthusiastic and said: "Hey, is this going to school? I just want to go to the supply and marketing agency to buy something. Come up and take you for a ride."
"Thank you, Auntie, I appreciate it. I have a lot of things and the car is not easy to store, so I won't bother you." Li Qiao said, "Why didn't you go digging the ditch today?"
In the village, except for the old and weak, women and children, everyone with a little strength went out to dig river ditches.
Yu Feng has always been active in her work.
Today, I’m actually unemployed at home, and I still have time to visit the supply and marketing cooperatives.
Rare!
Coincidentally, the minibus arrived.
Li Qiao stretched out his hand to wave the parking lot, got into the car with a sack, and did not forget to say hello to Yu Feng: "Auntie, goodbye."
There are only a few people in the car.
Li Qiao randomly found a seat and sat down. After paying the fare, he made room to look back, and Yu Feng pedaled his bicycle like chasing a minibus.
Is it to find out exactly who she sold the knitting to?
Coming to the supply and marketing cooperative, Li Qiao called to stop the minibus.
He went straight to the supply and marketing cooperative.
Walking around inside, I bumped into Gao Dagang and handed the things to him.
"There are quite a lot of things today, I was just about to tell you to let you get some more."
Li Qiao: "My mother-in-law and grandma made up many of them." Although the old lady Qin is old and her eyes are not very good, she has a flexible mind.
Handwork, she can remember it after just watching it once.
Even thinking about innovation.
"Oh, didn't you say that your date will come in the future?" Gao Dagang said.
Li Qiao: "The organization in the team paved the ditch and couldn't get away."
"That's it." Gao Dagang took her into the office to pay her the bill as usual: "I planned to start deducting it next month, but the director asked you to issue an approval slip, and the things you bring in the future will be considered legitimate. Don't be afraid of being reported by others. This is already deducted money, you count."
Li Qiao was very happy, she was worried about this. She took the money and put it directly in the bag: "No need to count, thank you very much. Originally, some people in our village saw me doing handicrafts and knew that I would get it to the supply and marketing cooperative. I was a little afraid that you would be in trouble."
Gao Dagang smiled, sat down and wrote a note and stamped it to her: "If someone reports you, take this out, and the inspector won't say anything after reading it."
Li Qiao was extremely grateful: "Thank you very much." She silently thought: When I develop, I will inevitably help you.
Li Qiao left the supply and marketing cooperative not long ago.
Yu Feng came in. She had seen the Qin family's weaving after it was finished, and after searching carefully, she finally found it at a counter with bright red plastic flowers inserted inside.
Not to mention, once the flowers are put in, it looks like the straw has improved a lot.
She stepped forward to ask the price.
The cheapest one costs 20 cents.
Expensive thirty-five cents.
There is a flower-shaped cylinder that costs forty cents.
Who would pay so much for this thing?
While making eye contact, several well-dressed women came over to ask the price.
I simply paid for it.
The counter cooled down, and Yu Feng stepped forward again: "Hello comrade, I also have this thing at home, can I sell it to you?"
"We won't accept it without approval slip."
"How can I get approval slips?"
"I don't know that."
"Do I have to ask your leader for instructions?" Yu Feng broke the casserole and asked the end. At this time, a business came to the door, and the salesperson was focused on selling the goods to collect money. She asked several times and the other party ignored her.
She patiently waited for the other party to clear up and continue asking.
It turned out that it was time to quit work, and the salesperson collected things faster than rabbits: "If you have something to ask, come and ask tomorrow, I'm off work."
Yu Feng: "."
