Chapter 154 Buying Paper

Fang Zhi heard the movement, saw Gu Mian coming, quickly stood up from the stool, and warmly asked Gu Mian to sit down and rest for a while.

Lin Xiao could see that Gu Mian was a little embarrassed, and pushed Fang Zhi into the main room to get some egg yolk pastry.

After Fang Zhi entered the room, Gu Mian's tension eased a lot.

"I have nothing to do here, but the busy farming is about to start, my mother is here to help."

Because of the flood, this year's crops were planted relatively late, and they matured more than half a month later than in previous years.

Now the crops in the field have just matured, the corn leaves have turned khaki, and the corn cobs have become hard and firm.

Lin Sheng's family still has various businesses, and the factory still has to keep an eye on it. The family still raises pigs, so it must be too busy.

Her mother asked her to come over to see if there was anything she needed help with.

Lin Xiao replied, "No, no, if I'm too busy, I'll find a worker directly. I saw it on the way you came. There is still some corn that is not ripe, so I want to wait another two days. Now that you are here, help me pack it. Egg yolk cake."

The wrapping paper is still used to wrap the leftover spicy strips. The paper is relatively thick and the packaging is not beautiful.

When Xie Cheng went to see Boss Zhu tomorrow, she would follow her there to see if there was anyone selling wrapping paper.

"Okay." Gu Mian followed Lin Xiao into the main room.

Fang Zhi came out with the egg yolk cake and didn't see Gu Mian, so she asked Lin Sheng strangely, "Where's he?"

"He and Xiaoxiao are in the room." Lin Sheng sat down on the stool.

Fang Zhi quietly left no one around, leaned closer to Lin Sheng and whispered to persuade, "Did you hear everything my mother said when I entered the door just now?"

The heat that had just dropped on Lin Sheng's face rose again, "Mom, what are you talking about?"

"It's nonsense, you are not in a hurry, mother, you are in a hurry, while the relationship between you two is hot, hurry up and get married, anyway, I am waiting to have a grandson."

Lin Sheng stood up, not wanting to listen to Fang Zhi's nagging, "It's alright, alright, I understand."

Fang Zhi didn't know what kind of thought Lin Sheng had in mind. A piece of meat fell from his stomach, and he knew what shit he wanted to pout his ass.

"I'll go to Gu's house in two days, and tell Aunt Gu about this, don't pretend you didn't hear."

In the evening, Fang Zhi warmly invited Gu Mian to stay for dinner. Gu Mian was very embarrassed, helping was helping, but when eating at the future mother-in-law's house at night, people would gossip.

Of course Fang Zhi also knew Gu Mian's scruples, so she didn't force her too much, and asked Lin Sheng to send Gu Mian home with a basket of delicious food.

The next day, the two separated after arriving in the town. Lin Xiao ran to the cooperative, found the boss, and asked where he bought the paper for wrapping brown sugar.

After finding out that he bought it in a village outside the town, Lin Xiao borrowed the boss's bicycle and rode there without saying a word.

This village is specialized in papermaking. I heard that in the feudal society, the emperor was provided with rice paper.

It's just that there was a turmoil later, and the stele was smashed, leaving only a small piece exposed on the ground. Now there is a pile of weeds growing nearby. If you don't look carefully, you can't find the stele at all.

Now the village has declined, and most of them have given up their papermaking business, leaving only a few sporadic houses.

When Lin Xiao rushed to the village, it was not yet noon, and there were many unused things piled up in the corners of the village, covered with dust and cobwebs, like those wooden structures, which had been used for cooking.

Some children saw Lin Xiao riding a rickshaw and looked at it curiously, and some even followed him curiously.

Lin Xiao asked softly, "Do you know who makes paper?"

"Sister, are you here to buy paper?" A child asked.

Lin Xiao nodded, "That's right. If you can take my sister there, my sister will treat you to some sweets."

After speaking, he took out candy from his pocket. It was given to him by the boss of the cooperative, and it wasn't much. It didn't matter if it was given to these children.

Those children's eyes lit up when they saw the candy. They haven't eaten candy yet.

I heard from adults that candy has a very sweet taste.

"Me, me, me!" The children all raised their hands.

Lin Xiao distributed a candy to each of them in turn.

Some children took the candy and put it in their mouths directly. Only one of them pinched it in the palm of their hand and did not eat it directly.

He wants to take it home for his sister to taste.

"Okay, everyone has candy now, can I take my sister there?"

The child nodded, ran ahead, and led Lin Xiao across the uneven loess road to the end of the village, to the outside of a dilapidated house.

"It's here, Li Zizi's family can buy paper."

Some children shouted Li Laizi's name into the yard. After a while, a lame middle-aged man in black clothes came from the back of the yard.

"What are you doing?" His voice was also rough, as if he hadn't spoken for a long time, and there was a thick phlegm in his voice.

"This sister is looking for you."

Probably because they were afraid of Lame Li, these children all ran away when they saw him coming out.

Lin Xiao parked the foreign car at the door and said, "Hi, I'll buy some paper."

Lame Li glanced at Lin Xiao intently, then turned around, "Come with me."

Lin Xiao followed, and there were various papermaking tools at the back of the yard.

"Which one do you want?"

There are all kinds of paper in the backyard, some are light and thin paper that can be used for packaging, some are yellow and rough paper for wiping buttocks, and there are notebook paper with a smooth surface for writing.

Lin Xiaoxiang fell for the wrapping paper, which was exactly the same as the wrapping paper in the cooperative store.

She touched it with her hands, and it felt good, but she didn't know if it would be wet with oil if it was used to wrap egg yolk cakes.

"This kind, how much?"

"Ten sheets for a penny, how much do you want?" Li Lizi didn't ask Lin Xiao why he wanted paper, anyway, if someone came to buy it, he would get a reward.

Lin Xiao didn't expect the paper to be so cheap, so he froze for a moment.

Lame Li increased his voice, "Do you want it or not?"

Lin Xiao came back to his senses, "If you want it, you need fifty cents first."

Fifty cents means five hundred sheets, no more and no less. If you don’t have enough in the end, just come back and buy them.

It's not too far away, but it may be a bit inconvenient to walk.

Ah, she really wants to buy a bicycle.

But after buying a bicycle, the family has no balance at all.

When will she achieve financial freedom and buy whatever she wants?

Lame Li said five hundred sheets of paper and handed them to Lin Xiao. A stack was full. Lin Xiao tied it to the back seat of the bicycle, took out [-] cents from his pocket, and handed it to Lame Li.

After that, Lin Xiao rode the foreign car back to the town and returned the foreign car to the boss.

Next time you're in town, bring some presents for the boss.

A stack of papers is not heavy, but Lin Xiao promised that Xie Cheng would wait for him at the entrance of the alley, but she was reluctant to put the papers on the ground, and when Xie Cheng came out, she lost feeling in both arms.

When Xie Cheng took the stack of papers, Lin Xiao's arms were shaking like Parkinson's.

"Really, it's so convenient to have a foreign car, when can I buy one." Lin Xiao complained, shaking her arms, relying on physical strength would really exhaust her to death.

This is not the first time Lin Xiao said this sentence, and Xie Cheng has already remembered it in his heart.

He said silently, there will be one soon.
