Pamper Eighties

Chapter 16:

Mrs. Feng's stern face still looked quite bluffing. She looked at the salesperson and said, "Wouldn't it be better for you to say this earlier? Be careful when you go to work, don't sleep all the time, the eyes of the people are bad. Brilliant."

"Let's go." Madam Feng was very satisfied to see that the salesperson's face had turned blue. She waved her hand and brought the family out. She walked to the door and said, "What's so great about wheat milk essence? Isn't it just milk? Did you do it? Mengmeng, let's stop eating that stuff, and when grandma will raise a lamb for you, we'll milk it by ourselves."

After leaving the state-run store, the Feng family's mood was not affected at all. They happily walked into the supply and marketing agency next to them and went straight to the fabric counter. There were quite a lot of customers in front of the counter, and the Feng family was waiting in line. , by the way, to hear what fabrics these guests bought.

"Little comrade, show me that red flower again, yes, it's that one." A middle-aged woman ordered the waiter to take down the cloth she asked for, and touched it carefully. Pickingly said: "Is this made in Shanghai? Will it fade?"

The waiter is a young guy, so he is not in a hurry with so many customers, he said with a smile: "Eldest sister, you really know the goods, this is the authentic Shanghai product, it is guaranteed not to fade, look at how strong the fabric is, the most fashionable is It is."

This cloth is very bright red, and it also has small broken flowers. It is very festive to look at. The more the woman looks, the more she likes it, and finally she asks for a foot and two feet.

Madam Feng saw it on the side, and also thought that the fabric was very good, and it was suitable for her family to wear. Seeing that the woman was still choosing the material, Madam Feng looked at it and said, "You two should also see what you want. Fabric, tell me what you like, the old folks, and Yimin's clothes will be handed over to you."

"Mom, Yimin and I both have clothes to wear. We just made them two years ago, and they are still very new. It's enough to make new sets for the big baby and the second baby. We don't need it, right?" Su Wan was used to being frugal. The set of clothes at home is always pressed against the bottom of the box and reluctant to wear it, but isn't it very new? They don't grow long, and a set of clothes can be worn for many years.

"These clothes are just like people's faces, they are all faces. You and Yimin both have to go to work. In the past, there was no way to wear patched clothes. Now you have money and you can suffer yourself. You don't have to worry about it, dolls. , I plan to make a suit for the big baby and the second baby, especially the big baby, who should go to school at the age of seven after the new year, so I have to make him look decent."

Mrs. Feng has already made up her mind. The days of this family are getting more and more prosperous. She doesn't want to feel wronged by her family. She has saved up the tickets for so long just for today. Fortunately, there are two public family members in the family. Search everywhere.

Finally, it was Mrs. Feng's turn. As soon as she came up, she shouted to the waiter, "Little comrade, give me five feet and six feet of Shanghai khaki cloth, all of them must be green, and then give me six feet of Shanghai floral cloth, yes, I want the big red one."

She has been coveting this green dress for a long time. There are four adults and two boys in the family. The fabric of five feet six feet is just enough. Everyone can make one. Mengmeng has it before. Add a red one to her and go out. I can definitely envy the large dolls in the village. Her cuteness is to dress better than others.

Madam Feng picked up the red flower and compared it on Mengmeng's body. She drew a picture of Mengmeng wearing it in her mind. It must be white, tender, lively and festive.

The waiter was not in a hurry, and let the old lady Feng compare there. He saw that Xiao Mengmeng was cute, and she didn't cry or make trouble when she was playing with her grandmother. A small dimple sank deeply into it. Just looking at the little doll, he felt soft in his heart. He couldn't help but took out a cardboard box from under the counter, grabbed a handful of colorful rags and handed it over to him and said, "This cloth is cut from cloth. For the rest of the time, old lady, if you think you can still use it, take it home and don't charge your money."

"You really don't charge money?" Seeing that these cloth heads are made of good materials and bright colors, they are all excellent to take back and sew lace on the soles of Mengmeng's shoes. Madam Feng had never encountered such a good thing in her life, and she was able to take advantage of the state-run store, and no one would believe it.

"I don't charge for free delivery. I don't think it takes up space. I wrapped it in cloth for you. You can take it back." The iron wire went down smoothly, he stretched out his hand and pulled it and stuck it on the fabric, handed it over and said, "Go slowly, old lady."

"Hey, wait, I still have one thing I haven't bought." Madam Feng suddenly remembered when she was about to leave, and quickly turned back and said, "Little comrade, do you have a scarf here? It's that Hong Yanyan that can be wrapped around her face. I saw someone wearing it on the road."

"Are you talking about Shanghai silk scarves?" The waiter took out several small boxes from the cabinet at the back, opened them one by one, and the bright silk scarves were displayed in front of the Feng family. Good guy, it's so beautiful, some silk scarves are embroidered with gold threads, and one piece is put in a box, so it's not cheap to look at.

Madam Feng touched the money in her pocket, and she became more confident, and tentatively said, "How much does it cost?"

The waiter pushed the boxes over and said, "No cloth tickets, each one sells for ten yuan. This is the most high-end Shanghai silk scarf. If you touch it, it's all silk, isn't it very soft?"

Oh my god, it's so expensive, and a silk scarf actually costs ten dollars. Madam Feng frowned in pain, but looking at Mengmeng in her arms, she gritted her teeth and said, "Just this big red band. Jinsi's, I want it."

Madam Feng paid the money, took the small box handed over by the waiter, and said, "Prepare it for Mengmeng. When her hair grows in a few days, this silk scarf can tie her head."

After buying the fabric, the Feng family went to another counter and bought a pound of white rabbit toffee and two pounds of fruit candy balls. Their candy tickets were limited and they could only buy this. Mengmeng also took a fancy to the golden Shanghai biscuits next to her, but Mrs. Feng brought out food coupons but refused to sell them, so she had to use special dim sum tickets to buy them.

After leaving the supply and marketing cooperative, Mrs. Feng took out a big white rabbit toffee for Mengmeng to lick, and said she was very disappointed: "The things in this city are too expensive. But we can't buy anything if we have money, it would be nice if we can cancel this ticket."

After walking out for a while, she saw a stall on the street pinching candy people, and many children were watching them eagerly, and their saliva was about to drool.

Mengmeng was also attracted by those strangely shaped candy people, she stretched out her little hand to grab it, and a word popped out of her mouth: "Candy."

"Do we Mengmeng also want a candy man? Then I'll go over and ask." Madam Feng walked to the front of the stall and asked the man behind her, "Do you want a ticket?"

The man smiled warmly and said, "We are self-employed, we don't need tickets, and a candy man earns 2 cents."

"Oh, it's better to be self-employed. It's good to not need tickets. Mengmeng, then you can choose one for yourself." To say that Mrs. Feng used to look down on self-employed businesses, now she thinks that self-employed businesses are much better than state-owned stores, and it's cheaper without tickets. , Isn't that what they want for their little people's life?

The Feng family went for a walk around, and they almost bought the New Year's goods. It was time to go back to see the weather. Before getting into the car, Su Wan deliberately found a mailbox and put a white envelope into it solemnly.

"Everyone, you still haven't heard from your mother's family?"

"Mom, I wrote to my neighbors in my hometown. If anyone in my family goes back, let them tell me." Su Wan thought of her parents' family. In those turbulent times, they didn't know where to hide. She went, and there is no news so far, her beautiful and gentle face could not help but give birth to a melancholy.

Madam Feng knew the details of her family and sighed, "Oh, just wait."

When the Feng family went back, the luggage and baskets were stuffed again. They drove back along the original road and saw Huzi as soon as they entered Longling. It seems to have been waiting here for a long time, running over and rubbing around very affectionately, and the two big eyes can clearly see the joy.

Madam Feng held its two front paws and half hugged it in her arms, followed the fluff on the back of its head and said, "Huzi is really spiritual, and you know that you are waiting for us here, Huzi, you made more than two hundred dollars today. Do you know the dollar, you are really capable, and the tiger can support his family. Come, go home with us. "

The Feng family walked for three or four hours, and the sun was about to set before they saw Taoyuan Village from a distance.

The red sun on the horizon is like the egg yolk of a duck on fire, with its last afterglow dyeing the sea and the village a golden yellow, in this beautiful halo, several figures are looming at the entrance of the village, among them One person suddenly shouted in surprise: "Dad, Mom, you are back."

It turned out to be Feng Yimin, and the one standing beside him was the big baby and the second baby. They waited at home for a whole day today, and they couldn't keep their spirits up for anything. In the evening, they couldn't help but ran to the entrance of the village to wait.

One big and two small ran out of the village entrance, ran up the mountain road in one breath, and rushed in front of the family. Feng Yimin quickly took the basket from his mother's back, and hugged Mengmeng in Su Wan's arms. The big baby and the second baby surrounded everyone. Happily returned home.

As soon as he entered the door, Feng Yimin beckoned his family to unload the luggage, and he didn't bother to look at the contents inside. His family would definitely be exhausted after a trip. He went into the kitchen and brought the food to the main room and said, "Mom, I have already After the meal is ready, I will wait for you to come back to eat. Are you starving? Hurry up and eat, I will feed Mengmeng. Big baby, go and bring out Huzi's food bowl."

Madam Feng took a few mouthfuls of food before she recovered, and told Feng Yimin what happened today with great joy: "I'll go to that restaurant opened by Tiezhu with your father, and sell the dried meat to him to make a profit. More than two hundred yuan, how much do you think Mengmeng's gold sold for? More than fifteen hundred! I'll drop it, Mengmeng can make too much money."

Feng Yimin also missed a beat when he heard this number, and said with special regret: "A small piece of gold is so valuable. It would be great if there were gold mines on Longling."

Old Man Feng said casually as he ate, "As a countryman, we have to do our duty. We can't force what God doesn't give. The people in the village are so poor. If there is a gold mine, it may not be a good thing for our Taoyuan Village."

"What Dad said, I just thought about it, I have already seen Longling, and there is no gold mine at all."

Although Feng Yimin is a man, he is also very good when feeding his little girl, and his movements are very gentle. When he scoops a small spoon, he has to wait for it to cool before giving it to Mengmeng. Mengmeng is so anxious, he stretches out his little hand. He patted him, widened his eyes and said, "Quick."

The family almost died of laughter when they saw it, Su Wan put down her chopsticks and said, "I'll feed her, you're too slow."

"No, no, you eat yours, Mengmeng is here, Dad will feed you a big spoon, ah—open your mouth." Feng Yimin turned his back and refused to give the bowl to his daughter-in-law. The opportunity to feed Mengmeng was such a rare opportunity. He usually didn't want to feed it yet, so his mother and his daughter-in-law were both wrapped up, making him greedy.

Feng Yimin fed several tablespoons in a row, and Mengmeng was satisfied. She stretched out her face and called out sweetly "Dad", which made Feng Yimin directly sweet on the heart kang, and fed his daughter more and more diligently.
