In order to prevent her mother Hu Aichun from suddenly coming back to expose her lie, Xie Huaxiang watched the child Bingbing from the next door house leaping past her door, and quickly shouted to stop him: "Bingbing, come here, sister is here." Delicious food for you."
The little kid who had run away immediately ran back after hearing this. Wiping his nose with the back of his hand, he stared curiously at the strange man at the dinner table. Xie Huaxiang rummaged through the cupboard. Fortunately, her mother had the habit of storing food. It had not changed for decades, and as expected, she dug out a can of lumpy brown sugar, which Hu Aichun used to make ginger syrup for Xie Huaxiang to drink on those days of the month.
??
Xie Huaxiang knew Xie Yiping's attitude towards Shen Tingsheng. In his previous life, he knew that after Hu Aichun treated people as beggars and drove them away, the always honest and honest man actually found the courage to have a quarrel with his mother-in-law, so this time he had to let him get there before Hu Aichun When she comes back, her mother will not happen again with a big broom and driving people out as beggars.
The little kid happily licked the candy in his hand, and said crisply: "Okay!" He ran out like a gust of wind. Today is Sunday, and he doesn't have to go to work. Xie Yiping's radius of activity generally does not exceed that of textile factory employees. Within the confines of the dormitory compound, I could either play poker with others in the staff culture room, or play chess with others under the big banyan tree at the west end of the compound. There was no other place to go.
Sure enough, Xie Yiping came back in a hurry after a while. As he walked in, he said, "Is there a guest at home?"
Shen Tingsheng quickly stood up, took two steps forward, bowed respectfully and said, "Hello, Uncle Xie!"
Xie Yiping looked at him in slight shock: "Who are you?"
Shen Tingsheng quickly picked up the pile of old letters on the table and handed it over: "My name is Shen Tingsheng, and I am Shen Laoshuan's grandson."
Xie Yiping took a look at the handwriting on the cover of the old letter. Sure enough, it was written by his father. He excitedly held Shen Tingsheng's hands and shook them vigorously: "It's really Tingsheng. He has grown so big. I I still remember that your grandfather wrote to us at that time, saying that a fat grandson was born in the family and asked for help in choosing a name. Your name was given by Xiangxiang¡¯s grandfather.¡±
Generations of Shen Tingsheng's family have been illiterate farmers. When he was born, the family gave him the nickname Gou'er. Later, it was Grandpa Xie who gave him the name. Otherwise, he would be Shen Gou'er now. .
Xie Yiping did the math: "I remember you are three years older than our Xiangxiang. You must be twenty-one this year. How is it? Is your dad okay? Is your grandpa still alive?" To talk about Xie Yiping and the Shen family His feelings for her were not that deep after all, since they had never met each other, but back then, his father would talk about this lifesaver at home all day long. The more he listened to it, the more he would naturally pay more attention to him.
Shen Tingsheng's eyes darkened: "My father and grandfather have both passed away. I now live with my grandma and sister."
Xie Huaxiang glanced at Shen Tingsheng in surprise. Hearing what he said, it seemed as if there were no other relatives in the family except grandma and sister. However, she remembered that when she went back to her hometown in Yunnan with him in her previous life, his uncles, uncles, and cousins There were a lot of brothers and cousins, and as soon as he showed up, they all came to greet him, as if they were in a good relationship.
It seems that this is a typical example of being poor in the downtown area and no one cares about him, and being rich in the mountains and having distant relatives. Don't look at those relatives who fawned over him at that time. At this time, they still don't know how to bully him!
Thinking of this, Xie Huaxiang's heartache for him increased even more. This man was so prosperous later, but he had to endure a lot of hardships when he was a boy. But when he mentioned the past, he was always so calm and relaxed. But it makes people even more tempted to want to be nicer to him.
Xie Yiping let out a hiss and took a breath: "How could it be possible? I remember your dad is about the same age as me" He was feeling that he was in the prime of life. When he heard the news of the untimely death of his peers, Amazed.
"Dad!" Xie Huaxiang pushed her father, "You come so far, and you just let people stand and talk like this while I go make tea for you."
Xie Yiping then realized what he was doing and quickly pulled him to the sofa: "Look at me, I'm just talking. Sit down, sit down!"
Hu Aichun lived a fastidious life. The wooden sofa was covered with soft cushions sewn with floral fabrics and a layer of mesh made of white yarn. It looked clean and high-end. Shen Tingsheng looked at himself and found that his clothes were quite clean. , but the fabric was rough and incompatible with the sophistication of this home, so I couldn't help but hesitate.
Xie Yiping was a rough guy and didn't notice this. He just kept asking people to sit down. However, Xie Huaxiang noticed it with sharp eyes and felt even more distressed. Thinking about how he had never sat on any expensive sofa in his previous life, now I'm afraid no one has ever been kind to him. How can such a proud and confident person show embarrassment again and again? How can it not make people feel distressed!
Thinking of this, she walked over quickly, crumpled the white gauze scarf and sofa cushions into a ball and hugged them: "I almost forgot, my mother asked me to put these away in the morning. I need to see them today." It¡¯s getting hot, how can I sit on such a thick cushion?¡±
Sitting on the bare wooden sofa, Shen Tingsheng seemed much more comfortable.
Xie Yiping was full of curiosity about what happened in his hometown and kept asking questions. The two soon started chatting enthusiastically.
Xie Huaxiang found the best tea collected by her father, made tea and brought it to her: "Dad, you and Xiao Shen can chat slowly, and I will help my mother buy groceries."
Xie Yiping waved his hands without raising his head: "Go, go!"
Xie Huaxiang was still uneasy and decided to give her mother a vaccination first. Hu Aichun actually disliked the poor and loved the rich, and looked down on country people, but he was not a bad person. He told her to talk to her first. Once you are mentally prepared, you will naturally not embarrass Shen Ting again.
The places where you can buy things near the textile factory can be counted on one hand. Most of them are grain and oil stores and non-staple food stores. Xie Huaxiang searched all the way along the street, and sure enough, he soon saw a man walking there carrying a vegetable basket with a happy face. Hu Aichun returned home.
Xie Huaxiang quickly walked over and took Hu Aichun's arm: "Mom, what good things did you buy?"
Hu Aichun happily turned over the basket and showed it to her: "I bought hairtail, and there is also chicken supply today, and I grabbed half of it." Their family is a dual-income family, so there is not much shortage on the ticket, but the supply of non-staple food stores is insufficient, most of the time Even if you have money and tickets, you may not be able to buy good things. She was lucky today. While waiting in line, a batch of bare chickens happened to come. When it was her turn, they were not sold out yet, so she bought half of them. "What do you think?" Should you eat plain-cut chicken or steamed chicken with mushrooms?¡±
Xie Huaxiang said: "We have guests at home. These dishes may not be enough. How about we go to Tongfu Lane to buy some more!"
Food stores on the surface only supply so many things every day. If you don¡¯t line up early, you can¡¯t get them. They can¡¯t meet the daily needs of citizens, which naturally gave rise to the birth of the underground black market.
Tongfu Lane is such a black market. This black market has been established for a long time and has developed relatively maturely. There is nothing you can¡¯t think of. It¡¯s just that the price is several times higher than outside. For example, eggs, outside. It only costs 8 cents each in the supply and marketing cooperative, but it might cost 40 or 50 cents on the black market.
???????????????????????????? But I risk being sent to prison to do this business. Who would be willing to do it if I can¡¯t make money!
Hu Aichun's eyes widened: "What kind of guests are here, and they have to go to Tongfu Lane to buy food?"
It is said to be a black market, but in fact it is a place where everyone knows to buy high-priced things. The superiors turn a blind eye and generally don't care much as long as it doesn't cause a big incident. After all, even the leaders' family members and relatives are there. Such a need!
Although the Xie family is relatively well-off financially and can buy some delicious Dada Yajia every now and then, they are still ordinary people. Except for festivals or when entertaining important guests, they rarely go to Tongfu. Shopping in the alley.
Xie Huaxiang said seriously: "That must be an honored guest, the great benefactor of our Xie family!"
Hu Aichun chuckled: "There is no such thing as a benefactor and not a benefactor. How can the new society pay attention to these things now" As he said this, his eyes suddenly widened. "Could it be that person? Shen Laoshuan is here, right? No, how old is he?" ¡±
"It's not Grandpa Shen, it's his grandson, called Shen Tingsheng, who is about the same age as me." Xie Huaxiang almost said that he was the one who had made an appointment with me since we were children. Fortunately, she didn't say it out loud. She suddenly remembered that she She probably hadn't heard of this before. It was Hu Aichun who drove Shen Tingsheng away in her previous life. She only found out about it after Xie Yiping quarreled with her.
She remembered that on this day in her previous life, she went out with Tang Guiying early and got to know Zheng Yongcheng, a group of high-ranking cadres from the Municipal Party Committee. They played all morning and did not go home until lunch time. As soon as they entered the house, they were surprised to find her. Xie Yiping, the honest and humble father who couldn't be beaten with a stick, was quarreling with her mother.
After listening for a long time, Xie Huaxiang finally figured out the reason. It turned out that the descendant of her grandfather's former savior came to the door. However, because the other party was a farmer and dressed too poor, Hu Aichun treated the person as a beggar and drove him away. He scolded the person.
