Chapter 28 The Sewing Machine Arrives Home

"Sister, I want to buy a sewing machine..." Du Yimeng turned and said to the salesperson.

Salesperson: She's old enough to be the mother of this little gay, but she likes sweet talkers...

Li Saifeng had just taken a few steps when she paused, then went to buy a bicycle with a smile.

She was planning to buy a sewing machine today, but when she saw the bicycle, she thought of her son who walked to work.

That young comrade is really smart, he understands things immediately, just like her, unlike her husband, who is so stubborn...

When Du Yidong and the others arrived on the second floor, they saw a sewing machine next to Du Yimeng. The four of them did not associate the sewing machine with their home.

You have to know that a sewing machine is one of the three major appliances. Even if you have money, you may not have the ticket. What kind of family can buy one just like that?

"Sister, why is the sewing machine placed here?" Du Yidonggang asked with a puzzled look on his face. He deliberately walked around the sewing machine when passing by, for fear that he would accidentally break it and be asked to pay for it. The three brothers following behind him did the same.

"Have you bought everything?" Du Yimeng did not answer Du Yidonggang's question, but asked back.

"I've bought everything. The third and fourth children each got a pen, and the fifth child bought half a pound of White Rabbit milk candy. This is the remaining money." Du Yidonggang took out the money from his pocket and handed it to Du Yimeng, but his eyes kept falling on the sewing machine.

"Why didn't you buy one for yourself?" Du Yimeng looked at the money in her hand in surprise. She gave him two Great Unity banknotes, but he didn't spend any of them.

"I'm older and don't need it." Du Yidong refused.

"I'll treat everyone equally and give you some pocket money." Du Yimeng took out two dollars and handed it to Du Yidonggang. It was her first salary and she bought gifts for the whole family. Of course, she wouldn't miss anyone.

And she also knew that Du Yidonggang was not the kind of person who would spend money recklessly, but the kind of person who would rather spend every penny carefully.

Du's mother had a sewing machine, and she also secretly prepared two kilograms of fruit candy for Du Weihai.

Do you really think he can hide his little thoughts?

Every time she took out some candy, his eyes would light up.

"This sewing machine belongs to our family. You carry it down." As Du Yimeng spoke, her eyes fell on a cloth bag.

There is no such thing as a sister being called in vain, for example, a salesperson gave her a pair of scissors.

"What?" the four brothers asked in unison. If they were not sure that the person standing in front of them was their biological sister, they would have reason to suspect that she wanted them to commit a crime.

"Take action, quickly..." Du Yimeng saw the silly looks of the four people, and the smile on her face grew bigger and bigger.

They were all shocked. If Du's mother knew that this sewing machine was bought specially for her, she would be so happy.

Du Yidong and the third brother carried the sewing machine outside the supply and marketing cooperative and spent another dollar to find a flatbed truck. As soon as they entered the family compound, they were surrounded by the women in the yard.

"Da Meng, was this sewing machine bought by your family?" an aunt asked in disbelief. She looked around again and didn't see the Du couple!

It can’t be possible that the Du siblings bought it, right?

I have to say she guessed the truth of the matter...

"My mother has to paste matchboxes every day and also do housework. It's too hard. With a sewing machine, she can also go to the street office to take on some clothing work, which will make her more relaxed." Du Yimeng said with a double meaning.

Her words revealed the purpose of the sewing machine. If she didn't explain it clearly now, then when it was borrowed by everyone from one house to another, her sewing machine would become a public property.

We are all neighbors, and I would feel embarrassed not to lend it to you.

Even though they would be moving to the small courtyard soon, it was not far from the family compound. If they wanted to borrow it, no one would mind walking a few more steps.

"Da Meng, this sewing machine costs a lot of money, right?"

"One hundred and thirty-eight..."

"Want to sew a plane ticket?"

"want……"

Before these aunts could ask where the Du family got the sewing plane tickets, Du Yimeng had already led the people pulling the flatbed cart to the third row.

From beginning to end, the four brothers of the Du family stayed by the flatbed truck, fearing that someone would break their sewing machine.

As soon as the delivery man left, the four brothers gathered around the sewing machines.

"Sister, is this sewing machine really ours?" Lao Wu still couldn't believe how his family, who were so poor that they could barely afford to eat, could have bought a sewing machine.

Even though the sewing machine had now entered his home, he still felt like he was dreaming.

"Of course it's ours. It's already in our house." Before Du Yimeng could speak, the fourth brother took over.

"It's so tiring for Mom to make matchboxes every day. With this sewing machine, she can have an easier time. School will start in a month. You should all study hard. Whoever does well in the exam will get a reward." Du Yimeng said.

"If anyone dares to run out and play wildly, I will ask our mother to bring back more matchboxes to make paste for him." Du Yimeng said with a hint of threat.

If you ask them to review well from the beginning, the third child will be obedient, but the fourth and fifth children will definitely ignore you.

Now, after this experience of making matchboxes, they have deeply realized that if they don’t want to suffer the hardship of studying, they will have to suffer the hardship of life.

The three brothers never dreamed that the hard work they did every day was all Du Yimeng's trick.

As soon as Du Yimeng finished speaking, the third child nodded in agreement, but the fourth and fifth children looked confused. They didn't want to make matchboxes, and they didn't want to study, so why should they choose between the two?

Can they not have any of them?

"Third brother, you are responsible for their studies. If they don't listen, tell me. Next time, I will only buy gifts for you and not for them." Du Yimeng continued.

"Sister, I'll be obedient..." the fourth and fifth brothers said in unison, nodding frantically while speaking.

Seeing this, Du Yimeng nodded with satisfaction. She liked an obedient younger brother.

"Let's go to the state-owned restaurant for lunch..." Du Yimeng said generously, giving a sweet treat after a beating, no problem...

"Sister, why don't we eat at home? We spent a lot of money today, so we can save as much as we can." Du Yidonggang said worriedly. He felt sad just thinking about spending so much money today, even though it was not his money.

If I go to a state-owned restaurant to eat again, and my mom comes back and finds out, I’ll be in trouble.

"I'll go cook..." the third brother said immediately.

When Lao Wu heard about eating at the state-owned restaurant, his eyes lit up but he didn't dare to speak. He also knew that his sister had spent a lot of money today. He liked to eat, but he couldn't be ignorant.

"Just remember one thing, listen to me. If you want to have meat, let's... go to a restaurant..." Du Yimeng waved her hand and left first.

At this time, the four brothers of the Du family did not know what this sentence meant, but in the future, they would understand its essence.
