Bringing space to the countryside, others eat bran while I eat meat
Chapter 8 Buy, buy, buy
"Shh! You're so loud, you're afraid others won't know, right?"
Director Li couldn't help but feel a headache looking at his silly and foolish girl. He could imagine that Shen Ning became so sensible and steady just because she lost the protection of her parents. He sighed and thought, it doesn't matter if she is silly, at least there is someone to protect her.
Li Tiantian was stunned when she saw Shen Ning in the office, and instantly understood where her job came from. She looked at Shen Ning's tattered clothes and sniffed.
When Shen Ning's father was alive, Shen Ning was the prettiest girl in the hospital. Her clothes were always neat and tidy, and she had never worn such tattered clothes.
Shen Ning couldn't help but chuckle. Both the mother and daughter had loud voices but shallow tear ducts. She hurriedly said, "Hurry up and complete the formalities. I'm afraid that if the night goes on, there will be more trouble and my stepmother will find out..."
After all, he was the director, and after greeting the factory manager, the procedures were completed quickly.
Li Tiantian stuffed all the money in her hand into her hands with tears in her eyes, "Ningning, I still have some pocket money, I will give it to you later."
Shen Ning looked at the industrial coupons, cloth coupons, grain coupons, oil coupons, and meat coupons in his hand besides the 1,200 yuan, and quickly refused.
"That's enough, you and Aunt Li have already given me enough. I can feed my whole family now, so I don't need so much. But Sister Tiantian, you should save some more coupons for yourself. I heard that you are about to get married."
Shen Ning took out a few cloth coupons and stuffed them into her hands. "I won't be able to attend your wedding, but I hope you and your brother-in-law can live happily together..."
Director Li understood that this was Shen Ning's intention, so he did not refuse. "Ningning, if you need help, just ask. Wang Aihua is not a human being, but I can't just watch her bully you like this."
Shen Ning chuckled, "Aunt Li, I do have something to ask you for help..."
"You said that as long as Aunt Li can help, I will do my best."
"I plan to sell my house as soon as possible. The price is negotiable. It would be best if I can pay in cash within two days. The price is around three thousand."
Director Li took a deep breath and said, "Ningning, this is no small matter. A house is the foundation of our life..."
"A house is the foundation of my life, but it's not mine. With Wang Aihua and Wang Baomin here, the house will have to be renamed sooner or later. It won't be long before I can come back, so I might as well just sell it!"
"Ningning is right, Mom. If we don't sell this house, the Wang family will get a bargain in the end. If we sell it, the money will go into Ningning's pocket.
By the way, my uncle’s brothers have been having trouble finding a husband because of housing shortages. My aunt is getting anxious all the time. Why don’t you go ask them about it?”
When Shen Ning heard that there was a chance, he immediately said, "Since she is Aunt Li's relative, then 2,800 yuan will be enough. But my stepmother is a difficult one, so you still have to make it clear to the buyer in advance."
"Don't be afraid. My uncle has four sons. My second cousin is a scoundrel. No one in the alley dares to mess with him. When he stands there, even children dare not cry."
Shen Ning was amused by this analogy, and Director Li was also at a loss whether to laugh or cry, "How can you frame your cousin like this? Okay, I'll go back and ask after get off work.
Don't leave tonight, just come back with me and stay for one night. Your stepmother is really not a good person, and you won't have to suffer her anger when you go back."
Shen Ning chuckled and refused. How could he see the miserable state of Wang Aihua and Wang Baozhu if he didn't go back?
The days of going to the countryside were just around the corner. She had had enough of the days of hunger and cold in her previous life. Now that she had the blessing of space and was not short of money, she couldn't wait to start stockpiling goods...
After declining Director Li's kindness, Shen Ning left the textile factory and headed straight for the supply and marketing cooperative. In order to avoid meeting acquaintances and causing unnecessary trouble, Shen Ning even took a bus to the area ten kilometers away.
At that time, the supply and marketing cooperative was like a small jack-of-all-trades shop that sold everything, but the variety was not limited. Because it was a weekday, there were not many customers in the store.
Shen Ning was not in a hurry. He waited quietly for the customer in front of him to finish shopping before he stepped forward and said, "Hello, comrade. I want 30 kilograms of rice, 30 kilograms of flour, a barrel of oil, two large cotton-padded jackets, and two 10-kilogram quilts.
I also need ten kilograms of brown sugar, twenty kilograms of white sugar, ten kilograms of White Rabbit milk candy, ten kilograms of fruit candy, twenty kilograms of eggs, two barrels of malted milk, two bottles of Hongtashan, and two bottles of Laobaigan...”
As soon as Shen Ning opened his mouth, the salesperson looked at him sideways, "So many? Just the food coupons won't do, we need the food and oil supply book..."
Shen Ning nodded and took out Wang Aihua's grain and oil book. She was a worker in a cotton textile factory and had a quota of 35 kilograms per month.
The salesperson checked the items and smiled, "You bought so many daily necessities. Are you planning to get married? Why don't you see your partner?"
Shen Ning also knew that he had bought too many things, and preparing for the wedding banquet was a good excuse. He nodded hurriedly, "Yes, yes, my partner is a soldier, so I had to come by myself. There is nothing in the new house, so I can only buy it now..."
The salesman weighed the candies and smiled, "So that's how it is. Wait a minute, I'll get the goods for you. By the way, do you live far away? We have a cart for transporting goods in our store. If you pay a deposit of two dollars, I'll lend it to you."
"Thank you so much, sister. I was just wondering how to take it back."
Shen Ning's eyebrows curved, adding a bit of agility, and he took out a few White Rabbit milk candies from the bag that had been packed, "This is for you to eat. I want a lot of things, and it's really troublesome for you."
Shen Ning was sweet-mouthed and good-looking, and the salesperson was in a good mood after receiving the candy. "No trouble, no trouble, this is my job. You have a lot of things to buy for your wedding, just take a look, bed sheets, quilt covers, kettle, washbasin, towel, vanishing cream, clam oil..."
Shen Ning's eyes lit up, and she immediately released her shopping instinct. If she wasn't afraid of arousing other people's suspicion, she really wanted to buy this store.
In addition to the things the salesperson mentioned, I also bought canned fruits and several pieces of coarse cloth and cotton cloth.
She looked at the clothes she was wearing, then pointed at the few ready-made clothes in the store and bought six sets of clothes according to her size.
When it came time to pay the bill, the salesperson's hands were shaking as he counted the money. Excluding various scattered receipts, the total amount was two hundred and sixty-two yuan and eighty cents.
Shen Ning pushed the cart into an empty alley, quickly put all the things into the space, and made three trips back and forth before taking all the things away.
My heart felt like it was finally filled, and I felt so relieved.
Thinking that the policy has been relaxed a lot now, and the country will re-organize the college entrance examination in a few years, the educated youth will be able to return home one after another. They will have money and food, so they will naturally not care about the work points, and their lives will be much better...
……
When we returned to Wang's house, it was already dark.
Before I even stepped into the courtyard, I heard Wang Aihua cursing. His family was extremely poor and he had to go to the factory and beg for an advance of three months' salary so that he could buy some daily necessities. Otherwise, he would have starved to death.
The eldest son has always been carefree, and the youngest daughter is spoiled. When Shen Ning is not at home, all these chores fall on me. The physical injuries are still very painful, but compared to the pain in my heart, it is really nothing.
Ever since she married into the Shen family and got in touch with that guy, Wang Aihua hasn't been so embarrassed for many years.
But that damn thief even pried away the pot. Now the mother and daughter were eating cold steamed buns with tears in their eyes, drinking cold water.
When I saw Shen Ning coming back, I finally had a place to vent my anger that had been suppressed for a day...
