Reborn in 1977
#189 - Happy order
After Chen Fan left, Jiang Lili pointed to the room between hers and Chen Fan's and said, "This room doesn't have any clutter, just a bed, cabinet, and table and chairs. I've already cleaned it. You can use it as soon as you put down your bedding."
Originally, this room had a lot of Chen Fan's clutter, especially that kidney-shaped basin. He had been taking showers in this room for the past month.
However, since Yang Ju and the others were moving in, she had to move those things back to her own room, and the things she didn't use often were put in the storage room near the kitchen.
Huang Ying was the most familiar with Jiang Lili, so she smiled and said, "Thank you, actually, we can do it ourselves."
As she spoke, she took out a large rag from her apron pocket to show that she wasn't just saying it.
Jiang Lili smiled stiffly, "It's nothing, I didn't have anything else to do anyway, so I just wiped it down."
Although she had already revealed her true nature in front of Chen Fan, she was still used to hiding herself when facing other people.
Three years of experience is not so easy to change.
Not good at dealing with strangers, she directly led the three of them into the room, and then pointed to both sides, "Each room is the same, with four beds. You can choose for yourselves."
Yang Ju and Liu Dan glanced around and each chose a bed, putting their things down.
Huang Ying rolled her eyes slightly, looked at Jiang Lili and asked, "Does your room also have four spaces?"
Jiang Lili was stunned for a moment, then nodded lightly, "Ah, yes."
Huang Ying looked at her with a smile, "Then I'll stay in the same room as you, okay?"
Jiang Lili was immediately stunned, "Stay in the same room as me?"
It wasn't that no educated youth had shared a room with her before, but that was when there were too many people and there wasn't enough space to live. They had no choice but to share a room with her.
As long as there were beds in other rooms, no one wanted to live with her.
There had even been cases where people moved their bedding to other rooms, preferring to squeeze five people together rather than share a room with her.
Now that Huang Ying said she would live with her, she was completely dumbfounded.
Huang Ying nodded and smiled, "That's right, you're a junior high school graduate, your grades must be very good. If I don't understand something, I can ask you directly."
Hearing her say this, Yang Ju and Liu Dan, who were about to open their luggage, also stopped.
The two said in unison, "Then I'll move over too."
Jiang Lili's eyes were blank. When did I become so popular?
Seeing that she didn't speak, Huang Ying blinked and asked, "What's wrong, is it inconvenient?"
Jiang Lili came back to her senses and quickly shook her head, "No."
Then she pointed to her room, "It's just that the beds and cabinets over there haven't been cleaned up yet…"
Before she could finish speaking, Huang Ying raised the rag in her hand and showed a bright smile, "I thought it was something, it's okay, we'll clean it ourselves!"
After speaking, she walked to the next room.
Jiang Lili watched the three of them walk out, couldn't help tilting her head, her face full of strange expressions.
What's going on here?
…
Chen Fan carried a large bamboo basket, stepping on wooden clogs and breaking through the ice and snow. He soon arrived at Team 5.
As usual, he greeted the members who had their doors open. When he reached the alley to Grandpa Lu Si's house, he naturally turned in.
Grandpa Lu Si was at home at this time, sitting by the charcoal stove reading a book. Seeing Chen Fan coming over, he looked up and smiled, "This charcoal stove you made is really a good thing. It's not cold at all when sleeping at night, and it's warm to read a book during the day. Now even my old cold legs don't hurt."
Chen Fan put the bamboo basket at the door, took out the things for Grandpa Lu Si, and was about to speak when he heard Grandpa Lu Si say, "It's just that there's one bad thing."
Hearing this, Chen Fan looked surprised, stepped over the threshold, and asked in confusion, "Which one?"
Grandpa Lu Si sighed softly, pointed to the charcoal stove, "Since I have this thing, I've become lazy. I've been staying by it and can't bear to leave. I haven't been to the ground for two days."
Chen Fan was speechless for a moment. After two seconds, he said with a speechless expression, "In that case, I've helped the opposite way."
Then he unpacked the bundle of tea sets and placed them on the table, pointing to it and smiling, "If you have this thing, you won't want to go out even more."
Grandpa Lu Si looked over, first frowned slightly, then his eyes lit up, "A teapot?!"
This wasn't the kind of large teapot that was more than half a foot tall, but a purple clay teapot that could be held in one hand. It couldn't be said to be small, but it had a bit of elegance.
Chen Fan handed him the teapot and smiled, "Like the charcoal stove, this was also fired by myself. I originally wanted to bring you a radish for the New Year, but unfortunately, I made an appointment with my classmates to learn how to castrate pigs today, and I have to treat them to a meal, so the radish is stewing in the pot.
There's nothing I can do, so I can only bring a teapot over, and six teacups. When you have nothing to do, you can cover the charcoal stove with a piece of iron sheet and put the teapot on the iron sheet to keep it warm. This way, you can keep warm and drink tea at the same time, and I guarantee you won't want to go out even more."
Grandpa Lu Si held the teapot in front of his eyes, turning it around and playing with it, "Although it's not round enough, it's considered simple and clumsy, a bit interesting."
Then he opened the teapot lid, "Oh, there's also a tea strainer, you're very thoughtful."
After speaking, he put the teapot lid back on, looked up at Chen Fan, and smiled, "Okay, I'm very satisfied with your New Year's gift."
He put the teapot on the table next to him, supported himself on the edge of the table and stood up, limping towards the room, raised his hand and pointed at Chen Fan, and said, "You came to give me New Year's greetings, according to the old rules, I have to give you a return gift."
Chen Fan followed behind him, "Oh, old man, please don't give me a red envelope of one hundred and eighty yuan, I can't stand this test."
Grandpa Lu Si turned around and glared at him unhappily, "Red envelope? One hundred and eighty? Bah, you wish!"
Saying that, he opened the drawer of the desk, took out a book from it, and handed it to him, "Your progress in learning to write calligraphy is still okay. The foundation has been laid almost. The next step is to learn to copy.
For copying, it is best to start with regular script. Among them, Tang regular script is the peak of regular script. This Yan Zhenqing's 'Duobao Pagoda Stele' post is my most proud work when I learned regular script. Now I give it to you, go back and practice hard."
Chen Fan had already taken the calligraphy post and browsed it. At first, he was quite happy to hear him say "Yan Zhenqing's 'Duobao Pagoda Stele' post". When he heard that it was his own work, his face collapsed, "Oh, I thought it was Yan Zhenqing's original work. It turns out it's Grandpa Lu Si's original work!"
Grandpa Lu Si closed the drawer, glared at him unhappily, "Bah, can you kid have a little culture, 'Duobao Pagoda Stele' literally means it's a stele, you still want the original? If you want the original, go to the Xi'an Stele Forest to find it!"
Chen Fan put the calligraphy post into the bag, raised his hand and saluted, and said with a serious face, "Okay, I'll take a trip to the Xi'an Stele Forest when I have time, and tell them that Grandpa Lu Si asked me to take the 'Duobao Pagoda Stele'. If they don't give it to me, they're not giving Grandpa Si face…"
Before he could finish speaking, Grandpa Lu Si pretended to kick him, "Get out of here and go home to eat your stewed radish!"
Chen Fan ran out with the bamboo basket, grinning, and went to Zhang Changjiang, Xiao Liewen, and Zhang Wenliang's houses to pay New Year's greetings.
These old misers didn't give any return gifts, not even a penny of New Year's money, which made Chen Fan keep muttering that he had lost money.
But it wasn't without gains.
Following Xiao Liewen, Captain Zhang also placed an order for two charcoal stoves, one for his own use and one for his parents, exchanging them for eggs and grain.
For the sake of the old people, Chen Fan gave him a 9.9 discount, tearfully losing two cents, not mentioning that he ate four of his eggs in one breath.
Zhang Wenliang wasn't short of money either, and directly ordered two, and also made a reservation for a load of charcoal. For the sake of the first transaction, Chen Fan didn't charge him for the charcoal, but only took away an old turtle from his bucket.
As for Secretary Yang and Yang Xingxiu, and Captain Ye, they were not from Team 5, so they could only go over to pay New Year's greetings in the afternoon after finishing their work in the morning.
Hopefully, Captain Xiao's publicity will be effective and bring in two more orders!
He was busy all morning and didn't even give classes to his classmates.
It wasn't until the broadcast ended that he gathered his 12 classmates and walked home.
