This lesbian is too good at talking! I can't afford to offend her!
Chapter 51 Xing Fangcao is missing
"Brother, what did you buy? Why is it so heavy?"
Chen Shuning held the sack with great effort and moved it into the house with a grunt.
Chen Jiawang took the sack and said, "I bought some books. Let me move them! Shuning, go get the other things."
Chen Shuning decisively let go and turned around to get other things.
Chen Aiguo waved his hand and said, "Let me take it! Shuning, you go in quickly. It's cold!"
Chen Shuning walked to the side of the bicycle, took the cloth and wool in his hands, and said to Chen Aiguo: "Dad, take the seasoning!
By the way, the bottles of vinegar and soy sauce were lent to me by Sister Zhao from the supply and marketing cooperative. You go to work on Monday, so please consider returning them~"
Chen Aiguo said in a deep voice, "Okay! I understand! Xianghua~Xianghua~ Come out for a moment and pour the vinegar and soy sauce into our bottles."
Liu Xianghua responded: "Hey! Here I come~"
"Squeak--" the old wooden door made a heavy sound.
Chen Feng came out and asked, "Why did you come back so late? I was waiting anxiously at home..."
"Grandpa~ Let's go inside and talk!" Chen Shuning went up the stairs and helped his grandfather back into the house.
"Grandpa, Grandma! Come, look at the cloth I bought! I got a great bargain today! Three cents! I bought a big bag of cloth for three cents!"
Look at them, they're quite big! It would be great if they could be put together to make curtains or pillowcases!"
Chen Shuning sat on the head of the kang, where the cloth and scraps he had bought were spread out. Li Zhen put down the work in his hands and came over to take a look.
The piece of floral cloth that Chen Shuning bought had small flowers on a white background, and it was particularly eye-catching against the gray fabric!
Li Zhen came over to take a look and said, "Wow, this floral fabric is nice! The small flowers are so bright! But it's too white...it's hard to wash!"
Chen Shuning smiled and said, "Grandma, I'm saving this floral fabric to make shirts! Not coats! Shirts are thin and easy to wash!"
Li Zhen knows what a shirt is. Young people nowadays like to wear shirts!
Li Zhen murmured, "Oh! Making shirts! Why don't you buy white cloth for making shirts? I see those educated youth all wearing pure white."
Chen Shuning explained: "Grandma, there are too many solid colors. Everyone else has them. I don't want to wear the same thing as everyone else!"
After saying that, Chen Shuning shook out the floral fabric, compared it to her body, and said to Li Zhen, "Grandma, look! This floral fabric is much prettier than white fabric!"
"Yeah! This one is great! It looks much better than the white one~" Li Zhen agreed.
Chen Shuning smiled even more happily, and while folding the cloth, he said, "Grandma, the cloth I bought is enough to make two shirts! Give one to my sister-in-law when the time comes!"
We are both about the same height, weight and build, so we can wear it together! Hehe..."
Li Zhen jokingly said, "Hey, you're giving your sister-in-law one too? Didn't you say you didn't want to wear the same clothes as everyone else?"
"Oh~ Grandma! My sister-in-law is not someone else!"
Chen Shuning never treated Ji Xue as an outsider! Ji Xue was not like Niu Lanxiang. She was always generous to Chen Shuning and would never calculate Chen Shuning's things.
Lin Juan had complained privately several times, saying that her elder brother and sister-in-law were always thinking about marrying her to Li Tieniu. They had already advised her several times.
Chen Aiguo walked into the house, brushed off the snowflakes on his body, and complained, "This snow is so heavy! I wonder when it will stop!"
Chen Feng sat in the outer room weaving bamboo baskets. Without even looking up, he said, "Yeah! The snow is so heavy this year! I wonder if your Uncle Wang can handle living in the cowshed?"
Chen Aiguo chuckled and said, "Hehe... Dad, don't worry! I arranged for Uncle Chen to live at Er Laizi's house."
Chen Shuning paused and asked curiously, "Dad, how did you do it? Doesn't Er Laizi look down on Grandpa Wang the most?"
"This is really the sun rising from the west!" Li Zhen muttered.
Chen Feng stopped working and looked at Chen Aiguo eagerly, asking anxiously, "Boss! You didn't lie to me, did you?"
"Oh! Dad! Why would I lie to you? Yes, Er Laizi is a bastard and looks down on my Uncle Wang. But he is almost the same as my Uncle Wang now!
My uncle Wang is a capitalist, but he's also a chicken thief! They shouldn't look down on each other! Besides, when they're together, Er Lazi can take advantage!
When Chen Feng thought of Er Laizi, the expression on his face was amazing! He laughed twice and continued, "Er Laizi is lazy. After deducting the chicken from this year's dividend, he still owes the brigade money!
I laughed at him in front of him, saying that he didn't get as much food as my uncle Wang, but he went to find my uncle Wang.
Liu Xianghua put down the empty bottle in her hand and agreed with a smile: "My husband and I finished sweeping the snow for the blind grandmother and he came out and took Uncle Wang over!
Even if Er Laizi lets Uncle Wang stay for a few days to get through the coldest days, it will be fine! It’s much better than living in the cowshed!”
"Mom, what about the cow? Grandpa Wang isn't watching over it. What if it gets lost?"
Chen Shuning certainly wanted Wang Simin to live in a warmer house, but there was also the problem of where to put the cows! The cows were collective assets, and if they were lost, Wang Simin would be criticized again!
Chen Aiguo had thought of this a long time ago and replied in a deep voice, "I thought of it! How could I forget such a big thing? After leaving the blind mother-in-law's house, I went to the cowshed.
I took the cows directly to Er Laizi's house and lived in their adobe house. When it was time to feed the cows, I just went to the cowshed to get hay."
Chen Feng instructed, "Think about going to the village head and the Party secretary and tell them! Don't let them bother your Uncle Wang when you can't find the cow."
"I've been thinking about it! I've already told the village chief and the party secretary! Don't worry!" After saying that, Liu Xianghua wiped her hands, walked to the edge of the kang, and fiddled with the cloth.
Chen Shuning lowered her head to sort through the scraps of cloth. There were a few large pieces that could be pieced together to make a quilt cover. She folded them up and set them aside.
"Shuning, go get the scissors. I'll cut the fabric. If I finish cutting it today, I can make clothes tomorrow. The New Year is almost here, so I can't put it off any longer..."
"Mom, please leave it here! I've already made an appointment with Wang Na and Ma Lanzhi to ask them to cut the fabric tomorrow. The styles they make, made by the city people, are better looking than ours!"
The ones we made ourselves don't look lively when we wear them, and it's a waste of fabric. Oh, and they asked me to take your measurements. Where's our tape measure?"
Liu Xianghua took out a tape measure from the drawer, handed it to Chen Shuning, and said worriedly, "Would it be too much trouble for them to cut it for us?
Shuning, we can't take advantage of others for nothing! Don't let the people in the city see us clearly! "
Liu Xianghua's words actually gave Chen Shuning a wake-up call!
"Dad! Wang Na and the others wanted to get a plane ticket to Sewing Machine, and wanted to ask if you have any connections! Even if it's a little expensive, it's fine. They can handle it!"
Chen Aiguo was sitting on the ground chopping bamboo. When he heard his daughter's words, he said without hesitation, "Okay! I'm going to work on Monday. I'll go ask them!"
Chen Shuning responded crisply: "Hey! Think about it, I think they really want to buy it!"
"Grandma, please stand up. I'll measure you first! Mom, you're second in line!"
"Measure your grandparents first. Your father and I are not in a hurry!"
The snow outside was falling even harder. The path that had been swept out in the morning was already submerged in the blizzard, and no trace of it could be seen anymore...
Wang Na drank a mouthful of porridge, looked at the sky that was getting darker outside, and said worriedly, "What do you think, where is Xing Fangcao doing? Why hasn't she come back yet?"
Ma Lanzhi took a bite of pickles and said vaguely, "Who knows? We've been back for so long, dinner is already in our mouths..."
It's snowing so heavily, what do you think she's doing? Han Mei? You two are having dinner together, don't you know where she went?"
Han Mei stared at the pickles on Wang Na's plate, swallowed her saliva, and said absentmindedly: "She didn't tell me when she left! But I think she was very happy!
It should be a good thing, right? Who knows... Wang Na, your pickles are so delicious! "
Wang Na looked at her with her mouth watering, feeling disgusted! It was just a plate of pickles. If you like it, just buy it yourself. It’s not something expensive!
You buy it, and she comes to you flattering you, but she just can't spend those few cents... I don't know why she's so frugal...
Although Ma Lanzhi didn't like Xing Fangcao, she was worried because of the heavy snow outside. "Wang Na, Han Mei, why don't we go out and look for her after dinner?"
If Xing Fangcao was out visiting friends, she couldn't be back so late! But what else could she do? She wasn't very familiar with the people in the village...
No! There's someone who's been very close to Xing Fangcao lately...
