The retired rough man dotes on his mother

Chapter 19: Write a letter to Shen Zhensheng

Xiao Baoer also heard the quarrel in the old house, but did not go out. Xiao Baoer did not have a good impression of the eldest wife's family, so she maintained the attitude of "I will not offend others unless they offend me". But if the eldest wife came to her to make trouble, there would be no need to be polite.

Xiao Baoer's principle is that everyone is a human being for the first time, so don't tell me to repay evil with kindness, I will repay evil with evil, an eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth. If a dog bites me, I won't bite it back, I will just stew it.

After they all took a bath and brushed their teeth, Xiao Baoer told the three children stories that her grandfather had told her when she was a child. Erbao was full of questions and was curious about everything, while Dabao just listened quietly. The three children fell asleep in a short while.

Xiao Baoer entered the space, had a full body massage, watched videos in the space for a while, and thought about her future arrangements.

Eating meat every day at home will definitely arouse jealousy. Even if the villagers knew that Shen Zhensheng could make money, it would still arouse suspicion. Selling supplies cannot be done openly. You have to have a business that can make money. What can you do in this era?

Although I know a lot, this era is too restrictive.

Yes, I have been taught several languages ​​since I was young, and I have been abroad for so many years. I can go to Xinhua Bookstore to do translation work, which should be considered a relatively lucrative job in this era.

There probably isn't a Xinhua Bookstore in the town, so you have to go to the county.

And about Shen Zhensheng, it is necessary to write a letter to this father of a child whom I have never met, and send him something. As for the future, if we can live together, we will live together, if we can't, then we will say goodbye.

I am a new-age woman. If you can’t do it, bye-bye. The next one will be better.

I personally made 5 bottles of beef sauce, 5 bottles of chili sauce and a pile of dried meat in the space, and took 5 air-dried chickens, air-dried rabbits, sausages, nuts, etc. from the supplies and packed them all.

After the food was packed, it was time to pack the clothes. I packed 6 pairs of underwear, 6 vests, 4 pairs of shoes, 4 sets of clothes, 10 pairs of socks, and a watch. Everything was packed together. If you didn't pack it, you wouldn't know that it became a big package.

I used the manuscript paper and pen I bought a few days ago to write a letter to Shen Zhensheng and sent it along with the supplies. I also mentioned that I was going to take photos of the three children and would send the photos along with the supplies next time.

After finishing writing, it was already late, so I went to bed as soon as I left the space. The three children were sleeping soundly, and Xiao Baoer felt a little hot, so it seemed necessary to make some ice cubes to cool down.

The next morning, around 5 o'clock, Xiao Baoer and her three children got up. The eldest and second children brushed their teeth and washed their faces together. The third child washed up and played in the yard. Xiao Baoer was cooking in the kitchen. The four members of the family were all busy with their own things.

Xiao Baoer made rice porridge, a plate of pickled vegetables, fried a few eggs, and a small bowl of spiced soybeans cooked yesterday, and put them in the porridge to eat together.

Maybe because they always had no food to eat before, the three children now cherish every meal and eat with great relish.

"Mom will take you to visit the county today, okay?"

The three children clapped their hands happily, "Okay, we are going to the county to play, mom is so nice."

"Let's go to town first to post some letters and things for Dad, and then take a bus to the county. You have to be obedient, understand?"

Dabao and Erbao nodded repeatedly, "Yes, we will be obedient."

After breakfast, Xiao Baoer carried a bag and took her three children to find Shen Xiuxiu. The Shen family had not yet gone to work.

"Mom, I want to take Xiuxiu to the county today."

Shen's mother frowned, probably dissatisfied with Xiao Baoer's behavior of not working and always spending money, but due to Xiao Baoer's temper, Shen's mother did not say anything to her in person.

Xiao Baoer seemed to see what Shen's mother was thinking at the moment. Well, since you are Shen Zhensheng's mother, I will explain it to you.

"I wrote a letter to Zhensheng yesterday and prepared some food, clothes and shoes. I'm going to send them to him in town. I thought he hadn't seen his children for a long time. I wanted to take a photo with the three children, but I could only go to the county to take the photos."

Shen's mother's face suddenly changed. When she heard that he was going to send something to Shen Zhensheng, she couldn't hide her smile. It was the best thing that the third son's family cared about him. At least they wouldn't have a quarrel as soon as the third son came back like before.

"Okay, okay, let Xiuxiu go with you. You can't take care of three children by yourself. You must take good care of the children in the county."

"Yes, mother, I just felt that the three children were too young for me to take care of them alone, so I asked Xiuxiu to go with me."

Shen's mother hurriedly called Xiuxiu, "Xiuxiu, go to the county with your third sister-in-law, and ask your brother to ask the captain for leave on your behalf."

"Okay, mother."

Wang Xiang opened her mouth to say something, but fearing she would be beaten again like she was yesterday, she did not dare to speak and went out to work angrily.

Li Sanni, the wife of the fourth son of Shen, was also very jealous. Why should I go to the fields with my child, while Xiao Baoer can go to the town or the county in beautiful clothes? But she didn't dare to say it out loud. Without a son, she had no one to rely on. What right did she have to speak in her husband's family?

Xiao Baoer and Shen Xiuxiu had to take their children to the town on a ox cart to send things.

The three children rarely went to town, and they were curious about everything along the way, asking questions all the time. After sending the things, they took the bus from town to the county.

The county was still much more prosperous than the town, so Xiao Baoer took them to the photo studio first. The photographer was a very elegant old man.

"Hello comrade, do you want to take a photo?"

"Yes, we need to take pictures of the children. One picture for each of the three children, and one for the three brothers as a group. We need two pictures for each."

"Okay, 5 cents per photo."

Shen Xiuxiu stood aside, looking at the three children with envy. Xiao Baoer glanced at her and said, "Xiuxiu, go take two photos too. Sister-in-law will pay for them together."

"No need, sister-in-law, I don't need to take pictures."

"I have to take a picture. I'll take a picture to show my mother how photogenic her daughter is. She'll look so beautiful in the picture."

Shen Xiuxiu was persuaded by Xiao Baoer and took two photos as well. Xiao Baoer also took two photos alone and finally took one with the three children. After that, they paid a few dollars and came to pick up the photos next week.

There was a vendor selling candied haws not far from the photo studio. The three children's eyes lit up because they had never eaten candied haws before.

"Do you want to eat? Mom will buy it for you."

"Mom, I want to eat."

Xiao Baoer bought about 20 strings of candied haws, including some for Dabao, Erbao and the other children in the family. Candied haws are really cheap now, only a few cents a string.

He took the children to the county department store and bought a pair of shoes for Shen Xiuxiu, and then bought some candied fruits, snacks, Poria cocos cakes and candied winter melon for the three children.
