Become a burden in a period novel

Chapter 44: Shock at Mailing Luggage

Qin Wangshu did not immediately agree to let Aunt Luo stay. She and Aunt Luo had just started getting along, so she wanted to wait and see before making a decision.

Nowadays, she still goes to work with Aunt Luo every day, and she is surrounded by other aunts and sisters in the team. Gradually, she communicates less and less with those educated youth.

Everyone was very tired after the summer harvest, and the newly arrived educated youth were even more tired. They had already used up all their energy just to complete their tasks every day, and they had no energy to communicate with outsiders except their roommates.

However, some of them went to the educated youth camp to eat, and they were able to chat with the old educated youth while eating. As for the new educated youth who ate at the homes of their fellow villagers, they had no communication with others at all.

Qin Wangshu was like this. She didn't want to have any communication with those educated youth.

The educated youth point is where the plot takes place. The male and female protagonists are now here, and the plot has probably already begun. Qin Wangshu does not want to become a part of their play.

Aunt Luo had already taken her into the Qianshan Brigade, and now they were almost treating her as one of their own, so why should she get involved in the affairs of the educated youth point?

Today, Qin Wangshu had just arrived at the edge of the field when someone came over to say that a postman was looking for her.

It should be that the things he sent had arrived, so Qin Wangshu hurried to the brigade headquarters.

When he arrived at the brigade headquarters, Qin Wangshu saw the postman sitting under the shade of a tree.

"You are Qin Wangshu, Qin Zhiqing, right?" The postman guessed when he saw Qin Wangshu running towards him.

It was true that Qin Wangshu was a little small and didn't look like an educated youth who could go to the countryside, but the way she was dressed and looked didn't seem like any of the kids in the brigade.

"Yes, it's me." Qin Wangshu looked at the postman's bicycle and found that there was no package, and was a little disappointed.

She forgot that the postmen of today are not like the couriers of later generations who can deliver goods to people's homes. Moreover, with just a bicycle like his, he probably couldn't bring her big package.

"You have a package, and you need to bring a letter of introduction to the commune post office to pick it up. It's a pretty big package, but if it were smaller I could bring it to you." The postman deliberately emphasized the size of the package.

"Thank you, I know. But I may not be able to go get it for the time being. It's a busy time now, and it's difficult for me to ask for leave."

Qin Wangshu was in a dilemma. She had just arrived and people had just changed their opinion of her. If she asked for leave at this time, even if all her previous efforts were not completely wasted, they would at least have an impact.

"Can you leave the package at the post office for a few more days?"

"Okay, but it can't be kept for too long. Come and get it as soon as possible!" After the postman said this, he felt there was nothing else to do, so he got on his bike and left.

Qin Wangshu thanked him and watched the postman ride away. After the postman left, Qin Wangshu walked towards the field again.

"What's wrong? Who is looking for you?" Aunt Luo asked with concern after returning.

"It was the postman. I sent part of my luggage through the post office before. Just now the postman came to tell me that the things have arrived at the commune's post office and asked me to pick them up as soon as possible." Qin Wangshu explained.

At the same time, she also wanted to use this explanation to tell Aunt Luo that she was not as pitiful as she thought.

"Mail the luggage?" Aunt Luo was also surprised.

"Yes, I'm not that strong, and I can't carry too much stuff on the bus, so I sent some of the larger luggage that I don't need for the time being through the post office."

Qin Wangshu's actions not only shocked Aunt Luo, but also surprised the aunts and sisters who heard these words.

It seems that mailing luggage is too unbelievable nowadays.

"That's right. It's not convenient for you to take so many luggages in the car." Aunt Luo finally found her own words. She really didn't expect there was such a method.

However, few people took the bus at that time, let alone such a long distance, so they naturally could not imagine the difficulty of carrying luggage and mailing luggage.

The other aunts also looked as if they had gained some knowledge.

"So when are you going to pick up your luggage?"

"Wait a few days. I've already told the postman that I'm busy lately and can't ask for leave. I'll go get it when I'm free in a few days."

"Then will they let you put it there?" asked the aunt on the other side.

"The post office serves the people, so naturally it has to provide convenience to the people. And there is no way I would delay production just to get something, they can all understand that." Qin Wangshu explained.

When the aunts heard that Qin Wangshu did not go to the commune to pick up her luggage because she was afraid of delaying her delivery, they had a better impression of her.

The educated youth Xiao Qin was a down-to-earth and hard-working person, different from other educated youth.

When she returned home in the evening, Aunt Luo was still somewhat concerned about Qin Wangshu's last name, Li.

"Aunt, my luggage is too big for me to carry by myself. I was thinking of letting you go with me to get it after the summer harvest is over. If I ask for leave now, not only I will have to ask for leave, but you will have to ask for leave too, which will delay things."

More importantly, this will affect the issue of work points. One day less of work means one day less of work points, which is a huge loss for rural people.

Moreover, when she was preparing to go to the commune with Aunt Luo to pick up her luggage, she invited Aunt Luo to have a meal at the state-owned restaurant in the commune, as a way of thanking Aunt Luo for her subsidy and care.

"Okay, the work in the field will probably be done in two days anyway, so I'll go with you to get it then." Aunt Luo agreed immediately.

"Thank you, auntie." Actually, there was another reason for bringing Aunt Luo along. Qin Wangshu also wanted to buy some things for himself in the commune, which he would definitely not be able to get by then. With Aunt Luo's help, he could buy more.

"Then we will take the donkey cart of the brigade, which will make things easier." Their brigade is still some distance away from the commune, so when it is not busy, the brigade will let the cart drivers go back and forth to the commune to make it convenient for them, the members, to go to the commune.

Of course it is not free, but it is not expensive either. Most people are willing to pay for the ride, which saves a lot of effort.

"That's even better. I'm still short of some things, and I can go to the commune to get them." Qin Wangshu was even happier when she heard that she could take a bus, so that she could buy more things.

She had some tickets that were about to expire, so she could cash them in. If she wanted to settle down in the countryside and live a good life, she couldn't just rely on the things she brought with her.

This time she was going with Aunt Luo, so she had no way to find out about the black market. Once she was familiar with the route, she could go shopping in the black market and replenish herself with some supplies.

Money is not easy to spend, and saving money is not a good idea. There must be a source.
