Quickly wear a life of peace

He Fangfang thought about it and it made sense. Nowadays, bicycles are very expensive things. Even the wealthy brigades like Nangou Brigade in the surrounding villages don’t have many bicycles.

If you have the ability to live a good life, why do you want to make yourself suffer? "Okay, let's see if we can get a radio and send it to the captain. Will he not protect us?"

After they agreed, they hurried to the post office to mail the letter. Unfortunately, when they arrived at the post office, it was still closed.

I have to go eat first and come back to send the letter later.

When we walked to the state-owned restaurant, some people were already eating inside.

This morning, we had meat buns, vegetable buns, and noodles.

The two of them ordered a few meat buns, each as big as an adult's palm, with thin skin and large fillings, and very fragrant.

The buns sold out very quickly. The two were lucky enough to catch the tail end and buy the last six buns.

Another person ordered a bowl of clear soup noodles, and finally they were full.

He Fangfang touched her stomach and said, "Oh, this is the fullest I've eaten since I came here. I never ate full in the Youth Hostel."

Xuanyunduo also nodded in agreement. We were all eating together, and they only eat two sweet potatoes to feel half full. If you eat until your belly is full, wouldn't that make people hate you?

After eating, the two were no longer in a hurry and walked slowly to digest the food.

When I got to the grain station, I found that it was full of people lining up and it would take at least half an hour to get a seat.

After looking at each other, He Fangfang stood in line at the back, while Xuanyunduo squeezed to the front to see what was going on.

It turned out that there was rice today, but each person was limited to two kilograms. No wonder there were so many people, we had to buy it.

He ran back and whispered in He Fangfang's ear, "Fangfang, we have rice today. Each person is limited to buying two kilograms. Let's line up here and buy some."

He Fangfang nodded happily, "Okay, anything else?"

"Yes! I'll buy some more later. I'm tired of eating sweet potatoes for every meal." Xuanyunduo pouted with disgust. She had so many delicious foods but had no reason to eat them. She felt so depressed.

"Me too." He Fangfang nodded vigorously.

By the time it was two people's turn, more than half an hour had passed.

The two men quickly took out their food coupons and each bought two kilograms of rice, five kilograms of mung beans and soybeans, and could only buy three kilograms of cornmeal.

Xuanyunduo saw vermicelli and bought another ten kilograms. This was enough for the two of them to eat for a long time.

Then they continued to go to the grocery store. They arrived late and there was not much meat left, and it was all lean meat that no one wanted.

The two of them did not complain and bought a pound of meat with less fat and more lean meat, and also bought two ribs. The weather was already hot, and they were afraid that if they bought more, it would go bad.

Now that the most important issue had been resolved, the two were no longer in a hurry and strolled to the scrap yard.

The man at the scrap yard was not the old man as the legend said, but a young man in his twenties.

Xuanyunduo walked up to him and said hello, "Hello, comrade. We are educated youth who have been sent to the countryside. We want to buy some newspapers to paste on the walls. Do you have any left?"

The young man guarding the door took a look at the two of them, pointed inside the door and said, "Go find it yourself. It's just been sorted out, don't mess it up."

Xuanyunduo agreed and thanked him, then put the backpack behind the door and the two of them went in to search.

The scrap yard was not very dirty or messy, it was just piled up in neat order.

This made things convenient for both of them, as they found the books and papers.

The person who sorted it out was very thoughtful, and each stack is from a different period.

I picked out the two most recent stacks and started looking for books. Neither of them brought their books, and Xuanyunduo still wanted to go to college in this life, so she found two sets of textbooks for junior high and high school.

I also found seven books from the most famous "Self-study Series of Mathematics, Physics and Chemistry".

One volume of algebra, two volumes of physics, one volume of chemistry, one volume of solid geometry, one volume of plane analytic geometry, and one volume of trigonometry.

Although Xuanyunduo has the complete set, it is difficult to take it out because the publication dates are different. Now there is only the 64 edition, but what she has is the one published in 77.

Then I found a few more novels, including "Sunny Days", "Golden Avenue", "Red Rock", and "Lin Hai Xue Yuan". I took them home and used them to kill time during the winter.

Unconsciously, Xuanyunduo found himself in the pile of books and discovered several damaged medical books and calligraphy and paintings. After thinking for a while, he smuggled them into space and hid them.

After finding almost all the books, the two finally began to complete today's goal.

He ran to the scrap metal section and started looking for useful parts.

When she was still in the city, He Fangfang had assembled bicycles with Xuanyunduo, so finding parts was not a problem for her.

After picking and choosing, I actually found all the parts needed to assemble three bicycles.

There were also two radios, and the two looked at each other and couldn't help grinning.

After packing up their things, they both calmed down.

Those books are easy to buy, but these parts are hard to buy.

Sure enough, the man knew what they were going to do at a glance and asked in surprise, "You can repair bicycles?"

Xuanyun nodded and said, "I learned it from my uncle. Now it's inconvenient in the countryside, so I want to give it a try."

The young man pointed at the two radios and asked, "Can you repair these?"

Xuanyunduo nodded again, "My uncle can."

The young man seemed to be thinking about something, said "wait a moment", and ran away.

The remaining two looked at each other in bewilderment. They didn't understand what this person meant. Wasn't he afraid that the two would take the things and run away?

I was not afraid at all. In less than two minutes, the young man came over with an old man.

They live here and are familiar with the area, so they are not afraid that the two of them will run away.

The old man looked at the two of them with his cloudy eyes, and then he slowly said, "You are educated youth, right? Can you repair bicycles and radios?"

Xuanyunduo probably guessed their intentions and nodded with a smile, "Sir, you have good eyesight. We are indeed educated youths who went to the countryside to work in the fields. Do you have anything to repair?"

The old man nodded and asked the young man to take out the radio and put it on the table.

"See if you can fix it. If you can, I'll keep all the parts for you in the future."

Xuanyunduo raised her eyebrows. Is there such a good thing?

Thinking about it in his mind, he went forward to check it out, pressed the button, and asked for tools to disassemble it and check the parts inside.

After checking it out, he went back to the scrap yard, removed parts from the damaged radio, and spent an hour or so to repair it.

The main reason is that the tools are not handy, and it is difficult to do it without the right tools.

I put the radio back together, installed the batteries, flipped the switch, and tried it to make sure it worked.

The old man walked forward excitedly, stroked the radio carefully, and looked at Duoduo with a greeting.

It seems that this radio has a story.

But this was none of her business. She turned to look at the young man and pointed at her pile of things. "Can we take these things away?"

The young man looked at the old man and nodded in agreement.
