Chapter 56: My sister is here
As soon as Zhang Guilan got out of bed, Luo Jijun couldn't lie down. He was not used to going to bed before dark. Looking at his wife who went to the Westinghouse, he rubbed his head and got up and went to the kitchen. At noon, there were leftover stewed cabbage and some rice. He opened the stove. Luo Ji
Zhang Guilan was not hungry and sent him away. The door was pinned inside, and Luo Jijun couldn't get in. He just thought that Zhang Guilan was still angry and didn't call her again. Zhang Guilan in the room was cutting the small inner clothes with the cloth she bought. She thought about it. She could earn some money before going home Yes, I won't do the business of mung bean cake in the future.
The cotton cloth bought was almost cut, leaving only the last piece in his hand. Zhang Guilan solved it with a few scissors. Finally, he packed up the things before taking out the upper.
The weather is getting warmer and warmer, and she can't wear cotton-padded shoes. Zhang Guilan made a pair of single shoes for herself. The soles are ready-made. Just make the upper of the upper. After drawing and cutting it out, there is only the paste and stick to the upper. At this time, it was dark outside,
The 100-watt light bulb in the living room was on, the door of the east room was closed, and there was no light in it. Zhang Guilan guessed that Luo Jijun was asleep. He went to the kitchen and opened the stove and pasted it. After that, he sat in the living room and glued the upper.
The shoes in the previous life were made by the family before getting married, and they were all bought after marriage. Fortunately, Zhang Guilan still remembers the steps. Although it is a single shoe, the upper should not be too thin, otherwise it will be worn out, and a pair of shoes will not be worn for a few days.
The outside of the upper is black velvet, and the inside is the floral cloth left over from the inner * clothes. It is glued to four layers. Put the upper on the table, thinking that if it really doesn't work tomorrow, I will buy a sewing machine in the city. After all, the edge of the upper should also be wrapped with white cloth, and You have to use a sewing machine, and you also need to use the small underwear at home, and you can't borrow someone else's.
With a decision in her heart, Zhang Guilan just returned to the east room. The quilts were changed, which were all covered by Luo Jijun before. She did not take off her clothes, but directly pulled the quilt and lay down.
The next day, she was woken up by the wake-up of the army, and she couldn't sleep. There was a party at home tomorrow, and a sewing machine was added, and Zhang Guilan also got up. Now she doesn't have to wear a coat. She wears a large sweater inside, a modified blue khaki coat outside, and I went to catch the bus with cotton shoes, and I didn't have breakfast.
I met Jiang Zhi at the end of the small bridge. Jiang Zhi also looked embarrassed when he saw Zhang Guilan, "Sister-in-law going to the city? Xiaojun has a fever. I'll take him to the city to have a look.
I was afraid that Zhang Guilan would misunderstand, so I was busy explaining.
But he didn't know that he would expose his lie as soon as he opened his mouth.
There is an infirmary in the accompanying team, and the military doctors in it are more experienced than those in the city hospital. Moreover, the family members don't have to spend money to see a doctor. The conditions of the Li family are not good, let alone go to the city to spend that wronged money. Looking at Li Jun in Jiang Zhi's arms
Zhang Guilan did not provoke her, but said with a faint smile, "The child is young. It's right to check in the city."
Jiang Zhi smiled shyly.
In the past, her appearance made Zhang Guilan want to take more care of her, but since that incident, she only felt that Jiang Zhi's appearance was too fake, and she was very bored.
The bus is coming, and there are empty seats everywhere. Tomorrow is Saturday, and there are no people going to work in the city, and there is no one in the car. Except for those who have something serious to go to the city, there is no one there.
Zhang Guilan watched Jiang Zhi carry the child and walk in. She simply picked the front seat and sat down. Now the road is still full of mud. Sitting in front of her can be less bumpy, and she doesn't have to look at Jiang Zhi's appearance.
Jiang Zhi sat down and bowed his head to talk to his son in his arms. It was not until the car moved that he secretly raised his head and looked forward. After lowering his head, he bit his lower lip slightly. None of these people in the courtyard were better than her family's. She couldn't enter those circles, let alone offend people'
After returning home, Jiang Zhi had been hiding from Zhang Guilan. He just wanted to go to the city to buy some rice today. He didn't dare to ask Zhang Guilan if she wanted to go to the city, but he didn't want to bump into it, which embarrassed her for a while.
The army also gives rice to each family every month, but the amount is not much. There are 20 jin. It's not enough to eat. It's just a subsidy for one person. Seeing that there is still a week before next month, the Li family's rice is gone. It costs two yuan to take the bus back and forth. Jiang Zhi was After being cruel, he went to the city again.
Now the rice costs 40 cents a catty, including the five yuan he earned last time and the remaining five yuan at home. Jiang Zhi took ten yuan into the city, and he was confident. In this way, he forgot to think about Zhang Guilan sitting in front of him.
After getting out of the car, looking at the flow of people coming and going, Jiang Zhi turned a little and caught up with Zhang Guilan in front of him in a few steps. "Sister-in-law, where are you going?"
Originally, Jiang Zhi wanted to go together, but he thought that he had previously said that he was here to take care of the child, so he didn't say the following words.
"I still have some accounts that I haven't collected. I won't accompany you to the hospital when I go to the market." Zhang Guilan didn't break it.
Jiang Zhi smiled and said, "That sister-in-law, I'm leaving."
While holding the child, Jiang Zhi pulled the floral clothes on his body. Although he came with Zhang Guilan once last time, he followed Zhang Guilan. Jiang Zhi did not remember the way. Finally, after a few steps, he found that he could not find anywhere. He could only walk a few steps to inquire, which was completely like the dilemma of a countryman entering
Zhang Guilan went to the market first and collected the last account. At the beginning, there were more than 240 catties of mung beans, removed the worn flour, made 220 catties of mung bean cake, and saved 200 yuan from the fare and the money for hiring people to work. Here is also the previous book, plus the 100 deposited in the book, and After more than ten yuan, Zhang Guilan saved another 100 yuan and left less than 200 yuan in her hand before she went to the supply and marketing building.
Now most of the sewing machines are people who want to get married. Of the big things to get married, the sewing machine is the first one, and then the bicycle. Zhang Guilan doesn't wear it well, and there is no salesperson to pay attention to her, just to introduce her to others.
Zhang Guilan didn't care. In the end, she fell in love with a butterfly sewing machine, which cost 128 yuan. Finally, she bargained the price and didn't say a single point. However, she could find someone to help her send her to the bus. Zhang Guilan also paid for it. As a result, those who looked at the sewing machine I bought it, and the salesperson did not look down on Zhang Guilan before. He also gave Zhang Guilan a box of thread for the sewing machine. Zhang Guilan was happy, which saved money.
Follow the porter and put the sewing machine box on the bus and let the driver of the bus watch. Zhang Guilan returned to the market and bought four catties of white noodles. Now it is 70 cents a catty, and five catties of meat. It cost four yuan and fifty cents. The egg is now nine cents Twenty, buy ten eggs and get one for free, that is, twenty-two. The old lady who sells eggs also gave Zhang Guilan a small bamboo basket containing eggs.
Finally, I bought two morekun�, plus five cabbages. Zhang Guilan took something back to the bus. After tossing around for a day, she didn't even have time to eat. If she was too hungry, she didn't feel hungry. She just waited for a while to go home for dinner.
Seeing that it was almost time, Zhang Guilan glanced at the car and didn't see Jiang Zhi. She quietly withdrew her sight. After a while, she watched Jiang Zhi carry the child in his arms and get into the car.
In the winter, I was sweating. It can be seen that I came back in a hurry. After getting on the car, I was still panting. Seeing Zhang Guilan smiling and greeting, "Sister-in-law."
Zhang Guilan nodded, "Xiaojun is asleep?"
Jiang Zhi sat down under another seat in Zhang Guilan's aisle. "No, the child got up early in the morning, and he couldn't help falling asleep at this time. Is your sister-in-law's business done?"
"Yes, there is nothing to buy." People began to get on the road one after another, because tomorrow is the weekend, some people who work in the city also go home today, and some have been waiting for the bus for a long time and have not come in.
When the last car drove away, half of it was full.
Zhang Guilan and Jiang Zhi didn't say anything along the way. When the bus stopped at the gate of the compound, Zhang Guilan first moved the vegetables she bought out of the car, and then moved the sewing machine out of the preparation frost. It took a lot of effort.
"Sister-in-law, what's in such a big cardboard box?" Jiang Zhi looked up carefully. She didn't know it, but when she recognized the small painting of the sewing machine on the cardboard box, she couldn't help shouting, "Sister-in-law, you bought a sewing machine. Is it hundreds of yuan, right? There are not many affordable houses in our town, let alone the villagers.
Jiang Zhi sighed and was a little jealous. This is a big thing. He said he would buy it, but looking at his own house, it was a problem to even have enough to eat. He is also a person, but the difference is so big.
Zhang Guilan smiled and didn't explain. She just asked the little soldier at the door to come to help and move the things back home. After sending the little soldier away, Zhang Guilan took all the vegetables he bought to the balcony. At this time, he didn't have to be afraid of the cold. The temperature didn't have to be afraid that it Only the face has time to make a sewing machine.
As soon as he opened the cardboard box outside, he heard someone knocking on the door outside. Zhang Guilan brushed her hair and got up to open the door. She was slightly stunned when she saw the person standing outside the door.
"Sister-in-law, this girl said it was Captain Luo's sister." The little soldier came forward to inquire.
Zhang Guilan didn't wait to speak. Luo Haiying handed the bag directly to Zhang Guilan, turned around and thanked the little soldier who sent her, "Comrade, thank you. This is my brother's family."
The little soldier saw that Zhang Guilan didn't say anything, took the thing again, nodded and turned around and went downstairs.
It was not until this time that Zhang Guilan came to her senses and retreated aside to give way out. "Hai Ying is coming. Come into the house quickly."
Her heart sank. She and this sister-in-law have never dealt with each other. In the months she stayed in the Luo family, the sister-in-law did not talk to her. She pulled Milan in her room all day long. The two of them didn't know what to muttered. Anyway, they had RS
