After my stepmother was shot, I took my brothers to the countryside

Shen Nian went back to the house and took out a bamboo backpack. She had exchanged this bamboo backpack for the carpenter in the team yesterday afternoon.

She hung two military water bottles around the necks of Shen Nian'an and Shen Nianle respectively.

"It's too hot. If you're thirsty, just drink some water."

Shen Nian carried a bamboo basket and walked in front with Ye Jiaojiao. Several other educated youth were also walking in front.

Shen Nian'an and Shen Nianle followed behind, looking at everything on the road and talking excitedly.

A group of educated youth walked and talked, and unknowingly arrived at the town. The weather was too hot, and after walking for such a long time, the excitement had worn off and no one was in the mood.

Supply and marketing cooperatives are usually located on busy streets. A few people asked a passing woman and continued walking forward.

"Niannian! Is that two-story building in front the supply and marketing cooperative?" Ye Jiaojiao saw a two-story blue brick building in front.

"That should be it." Although Shen Nian drank the spring water, she couldn't stand the sun shining directly on her face.

"Great! We're finally here!" Wu Xiaolan exclaimed, looking tired.

The group quickened their pace and soon arrived at the door of the supply and marketing cooperative.

Above the supply and marketing cooperative there is a row of big words "Nanshan Supply and Marketing Cooperative".

The educated youths all walked towards the supply and marketing cooperative. Shen Nian didn't rush in: "Jiaojiao, you guys go in and buy some first. I'm going to the post office to mail a letter."

"Okay, you go and mail the letter first, and we'll meet at the state-owned restaurant later." Ye Jiaojiao turned around and answered her, then quickly ran into the supply and marketing cooperative. She could finally buy things again!

"Xiao An, Xiao Le, let's go. We'll first go to the post office to send a letter to Uncle Zhang, and then go back to the supply and marketing cooperative to buy things." Shen Nian continued to walk forward with Shen Nian and his brother.

"Ice cream for sale! Ice cream for sale!" Waves of shouting came from the other end of the street.

Popsicle! Shen Nianle's eyes lit up.

"Sister! There are people selling popsicles!" Shen Nianle swallowed and looked excitedly at the other end of the street.

"Come on, I'll buy you some popsicles." Shen Nian was also tempted. In such a hot day, she really needed a cool popsicle to cool down.

The hawker was pushing a bicycle with a wooden box tied to the back. The word "ice cream" was written on the back of the box, and inside the box were the popsicles that would make children drool in the summer.

"Comrade, I want some popsicles." Shen Nian took the two brothers to the vendor.

When the vendor opened the box of ice cream, Shen Nian saw that the box was wrapped in a quilt, and inside the quilt were various packaged ice creams.

"Come on, which one do you want? Choose for yourselves, and be quick!" The vendor looked at the three people.

"Wow! Sister! There are actually two popsicles in this ice mix!" Shen Nianle picked up a popsicle called "Double Stick Ice Cream".

"Brother! You should take this one too. It has two sticks in it!"

After saying that, she picked up a bag and handed it to Shen Nian'an. At the same time, she looked up and blinked her big eyes and asked Shen Nian, "Sister, is this okay?"

Shen Nian nodded with amusement, paid the money and the three of them continued walking forward. Shen Nian had just asked the vendor where the post office was, and the vendor told her that it would be there if she walked a little further.

Shen Nianle held an ice cream cone in one hand, licked the left one, then the right one: "Sister! This popsicle is so delicious!"

Shen Nian looked at him and Shen Nian'an. The former wished he could open his mouth to lick them together, while the latter just took one first, licking it in small bites.

Why are these twins so different?

"Brother! You have to lick it like me!" Shen Nianle felt that he had found a new way to eat it, and he licked it more vigorously as he spoke.

Shen Nian could only say that he couldn't bear to watch it.

After sending the letter from the post office, Shen Nian took the two brothers Shen Nian'an to the state-owned restaurant first, ordered a plate of braised pork, a tomato scrambled egg and two bowls of rice, and asked them to eat there and wait for her. She would come back after buying things at the supply and marketing cooperative.

The state-owned restaurant and the supply and marketing cooperative were only a few shops away, so Shen Nian felt at ease with the two of them there.

The main reason she didn't take them both with her was that she planned to take out the things she had prepared last night from the space!

Money is so hard to earn in this era, so try to spend as little as possible. Even if you spend less, you still can’t earn more!

Anyway, she just happened to have some space, so she could just use it to her advantage!

Shen Nian had just walked a few steps out of the State-owned Hotel when he met Ye Jiaojiao and Zhao Gaoxuan who were carrying large and small bags.

"Huh? Nian Nian, where are Xiao An and Xiao Le?"

Ye Jiaojiao saw that Shen Nian'an and his brother were not beside Shen Nian, and asked Shen Nian in confusion that she had bought popsicles for them.

"They didn't have breakfast this morning, so I asked them to eat at the state-owned restaurant and wait for me."

Shen Nian pointed to the state-owned restaurant behind him and said, "I'll go to the supply and marketing cooperative to buy something and come back."

"Then you go quickly. There are not many people in the supply and marketing cooperative right now. We are going to the state-owned restaurant now. I will help you look after them." Ye Jiaojiao said quickly.

Shen Nian nodded and quickened her pace as she walked into the supply and marketing cooperative. She took a quick look at the things in the cooperative before walking to the counter and simply buying some things from the list she had prepared in advance.

When Shen Nian entered the state-owned restaurant again, the bamboo basket was already filled to the brim with her things.

"Sister! You're back! Come over for dinner!" Shen Nian'an and Shen Nianle had been staring at the door. When they saw Shen Nian coming in with a basket on her back, Shen Nian'an quickly got up and called her.

Shen Nian put down the backpack and saw that the food on the table was untouched: "Why aren't you two eating?"

"They said they would wait for you to come back and eat together! Shen Zhiqing, your two younger brothers are really sensible." Wu Xiaojuan on the side explained for the two brothers with a smile.

Shen Nian felt warm at heart after hearing this. She smiled and rubbed the tops of her two younger brothers' heads: "Then you don't have to wait for me. The food is almost cold. Come and eat."

"Niannian, have you bought it?" Ye Jiaojiao also came over with a plate of braised pork, and Zhao Gaoxuan followed behind her with two bowls of rice and a plate of stir-fried tofu.

"Yes, I bought everything I needed. If there's anything I missed, I'll come back next time."

After Shen Nian finished speaking, he went to ask the waiter for another bowl of rice, and ordered some dumplings and fried pork with celery. It would take two hours to get back.

She didn't want to cook when she got home that night, so she just packed up the food here and treated it as takeout in the future. She handed the aluminum lunch box she brought to the waiter.

When she sat down and started eating, Shen Nian found that all the educated youth ordered braised pork. As expected, braised pork was the favorite of the educated youth who went to the countryside. After all, it was rich in oil and was one of the good dishes suitable for a snack.

"Niannian, what did you go to find the waiter for just now?" Ye Jiaojiao asked Shen Nian curiously while chewing the braised pork in her mouth.

While helping Shen Nian'an and his brother pick up some food, Shen Nian replied, "I don't want to cook tonight, so I'll pack some dumplings to eat at home."

Ye Jiaojiao's eyes lit up when she heard this, and she looked at Zhao Gaoxuan.

Zhao Gaoxuan nodded.

Ye Jiaojiao quickly stood up and went to find the waiter. She had eaten the meal cooked by Zhao Gaoxuan for the first time last night. It was not delicious at all, but it was not raw.

Sister Wu Xiaojuan and Zhao Guohao next to them stared at Shen Nian and the others. What kind of family dares to eat like this?

After dinner, the group walked slowly towards Shuangxi Brigade, with Shen Nian walking in front carrying a bamboo basket.

Ye Jiaojiao kept sighing that her bamboo backpack was so convenient, and she said she would get one when she returned.

This group of people were as excited when they came as they were tired when they left, each of them looking like an eggplant hit by frost.

Back at the Youth House, everyone was exhausted and collapsed on the bed, not wanting to get up. Shen Nian looked at his watch. It was past four o'clock, so he could lie down for a while.

She lay with her eyes closed and wandered around the space in her mind. She hadn't been in there for a few days. Shen Nian thought it was always right to be cautious.

Shen Nian went to look at her saplings. She had never figured out what was planted in that piece of vacant land before, and only found out the day before yesterday that it was planted with fruit trees.

All kinds of saplings have been planted. Shen Nian goes to see their changes every day. The changes are not too obvious, so Shen Nian sprinkles some spring water on them and leaves them alone.

She got up and sorted out the things in the bamboo basket that needed to be put into order. These were the things she had taken out to be seen. She locked the things that needed to be locked in the box and put the things that were needed outside.

In the evening, Shen Nian heated up the dumplings and fried pork with celery that he had brought back from the state-owned restaurant, and asked Shen Nian'an and Shen Nianle to start eating.

Ye Jiaoqiao and Zhao Gaoxuan were also eating nearby. They were having a great time chatting while eating.

Although everyone in the Youth League wanted to try the dumplings, no one took the initiative to come forward and say that no one had any money now, and if you ate other people's food, what would you use to pay back? So they all went back to their rooms.

After dinner, Shen Nian took the Shen Nian'an brothers to the yard to digest the food before letting them go back to the house to sleep. She herself fell asleep as soon as she touched the bed.
