Chapter 203 The Joy of Uncle Zhang's Family

After this brief and slightly awkward courtesy, Xia Zhiyan finally took a deep breath and prepared to get to the point.

She gently picked up the cup of steaming hot sugar water that was specially brewed for her and took a small sip carefully.

Feel the sweetness slowly flowing down your throat.

After a brief pause, she silently organized her next words in her mind, then raised her head and looked shyly at Uncle Zhang and Aunt Zhang who were quietly waiting for her to speak.

After hesitating for a moment, Xia Zhiyan mustered up the courage and said softly:

"Well... actually, I took the liberty of coming to visit you today mainly because I have something to ask of you, Mr. Zhang.

I hope you could drive us to town, Uncle Zhang.

Just like before, we will rent your car in our yard and we can travel together.

However, this time the situation is a little different. You don't need to wait for us at the town gate. Instead, we'll have to trouble Uncle Zhang to accompany us to the post office and a few other places."

As soon as the words fell, Uncle Zhang and Aunt Zhang, who had been listening quietly, couldn't help but look at each other.

When their eyes met, they seemed to understand each other's inner thoughts.

Then, the two of them simultaneously revealed expressions of joy, as if they were full of anticipation for this event.

Uncle Zhang sat on a small bench in the yard, smoking his pipe and thinking to himself:

Right now, the time, the place and the people are all right, so there is really nothing important to do.

Instead of wasting the whole day doing nothing, it would be better to go for a stroll in town with those young people in the Youth League!

Anyway, every time he went to town, he always gained something big.

Not to mention that they had to pay for the entire trip to the town by chartering an ox cart, just look at that group of young educated youth, each of them was so capable and understood the ways of the world!

As long as you go with them, you are guaranteed to receive some nice stuff from them, or you can exchange them for some good stuff at a very low price.

With all these benefits, why would you refuse?

However, men are not careful enough after all. At this moment, all Uncle Zhang is thinking about is that this trip will definitely be worthwhile.

On the other hand, Aunt Zhang was distracted by a casual remark made by Xia Zhiqing just now.

She repeated those words over and over in her mind several times - "There's no need for my old man to wait at the town gate."

Then she thought about how her old man would tell her about the educated youth in the small educated youth compound every time he came back from town. He said that every time they went to town, they would basically go to the post office to send a letter or something, and then go shopping.

The more Aunt Zhang thought about it, the more she felt that something was not right.

Because every time they buy something, both in quality and quality, it is far superior to those sold by the supply and marketing cooperatives.

What’s even more surprising is that not only will they resell these high-quality goods to their own families at relatively low prices, but this time they even save the trouble of waiting at the town gate!

So, does this mean that the old man in my family can also go to the place where they purchase items and buy them directly?

When I think of the fine rice and white flour that my old man bought from them, and then recall the wonderful taste.

As her grandson became increasingly strong and healthy, Aunt Zhang couldn't help but feel excited.

Before Mr. Zhang could respond, she couldn't wait to agree:

"Oh my, I originally thought it was a big deal, but it turned out to be just such a trivial matter!

Why would I need to send all these mountain products to beg Uncle Zhang for help? If you just say hello to Uncle Zhang, he will definitely go and harness our old ox cart and set off without saying a word!

After saying this, Aunt Zhang had a playful smile on her face, but there was a hint of temptation in her eyes.

Carefully observing the other person's reaction, she then spoke again:

"Since we don't have to wait at the town gate this time, I might as well give your Uncle Zhang some banknotes. That way, he can go with you to buy some New Year's goods."

When Xia Zhiyan heard what Aunt Zhang said, she suddenly understood. Aunt Zhang had obviously seen through the deep meaning of her words.

After all, everyone had already discussed this matter in their own yard before, so it is only natural that things have progressed to this point.

Moreover, if Uncle Zhang had known the good news before setting off, he would have carefully avoided those people in the team on the way to the town.

This way, there are many benefits!

Thinking of this, Xia Zhiyan felt that there was no need to hide it anymore, so she responded straightforwardly:

"Yes, you see, the New Year is coming soon, so I thought about going with Uncle Zhang to the town to stroll around and buy some New Year's goods.

Oh, by the way, we also found a lot of mountain products in the mountains a few days ago. Let’s take this opportunity to send some of them home.

Speaking of these mountain products, they are indeed not very popular in our team, but we see them every day and have become accustomed to them.

But you have to know that this is a rare commodity in the city! There is nowhere to buy it!

Well, I was thinking that when everyone is not too busy, I would go to town and take care of all these things at once.

After all, it's going to snow in a few days. Not only will the roads be difficult to walk on, but you might not even be able to get to the town.

So we have to deal with all these things quickly before it snows.

After finishing all these things, the rest of the day will be easy! We can just spend the winter comfortably and look forward to slaughtering the New Year pig with the team!

Then we can tidy it up properly and happily welcome the New Year!"

Xia Zhiqing said this with great joy, and a smile appeared on his face involuntarily, as if he had already seen the leisurely and comfortable winter time in the future.

Uncle Zhang and Aunt Zhang, who were standing by and hearing her confident words, were already grinning from ear to ear!

Especially Uncle Zhang, even if he was not very smart, he understood it now:

It turns out that this time I have the opportunity to go with the educated youth in the Youth League to buy the good things they had bought before!

Thinking of this, Uncle Zhang felt so happy that it was indescribable!

So he quickly turned his gaze to his old woman, his eyes full of expectation and desire, as if that was his last straw.

He prayed silently in his heart, hoping that his wife could understand the anxiety in his eyes and give him more money to solve the current problem.

Aunt Zhang was also a person of action. She stood up quickly without hesitation, and while warmly inviting Uncle Zhang to stay in the house and chat with Xia Zhiqing, she hurried towards her own house.

Her figure quickly disappeared at the door, leaving only a slight sound of footsteps echoing in the air.

None of this escaped Xia Zhiqing's sharp eyes, however, she just sat there quietly without saying a word.

But it was her silent attitude that seemed to have conveyed all her meanings to Mr. and Mrs. Zhang.

At this time, Uncle Zhang watched his wife go into the house to get the money, and he felt a lot more at ease.

Then, Uncle Zhang turned around, his face filled with a confident smile, and patted his chest and said to Xia Zhiqing:

"Hahaha, Xia Zhiqing, just relax! What happened when we went to the town this afternoon, no matter what was said, whether it should be said or not, I promise not to say a single word!

Let's stick to our original plan and go to town from the path I took you last time. That way, we can cleverly avoid many people in the main group!

Now, you should hurry home and pack up the mountain products you want to sell.

As for me, I will drive the ox cart directly to the place we agreed on last time and wait for you!"

After hearing this, Xia Zhiyan's mind became as clear as a mirror, and she instantly understood the deep meaning of Uncle Zhang's words.

She smiled slightly, picked up the sweet water that had just been poured for her, and drank it all without hesitation.

Then, she stood up lightly and said in a relaxed and cheerful tone:

"Okay, then, Uncle Zhang, I'll go back to the yard first! You see, I really need to go back and pack up those mountain products that I'm going to send home.

We can't waste any more time here and disturb your family! Let's meet at the same place as last time."

After saying that, she waved to Uncle Zhang and turned to walk towards the door.

Seeing this, Uncle Zhang quickly stood up and walked towards the door with Xia Zhiqing.

As he walked, he kept reminding her, "Okay, fine! Let's meet there as agreed. But Xiaoxia, you have to be very careful along the way!"
