Reborn Sanitary

Carrying empty boxes all the way, the three of them were so frightened that they didn't even dare to take the bus, and walked straight back to the station. When they arrived at the station, it was only three o'clock in the afternoon. Except for the morning meal, Zhang Hai, who hadn't eaten for a whole day, Xu Yan and Yu Guihua, with their chests sticking to their backs because of hunger, fearing that they would miss the bus or that the money in their pockets would be stolen, the three of them bought ten big buns for three yuan at the station, and the three of them shared it and opened it. The plastic bag squatted by the station and started eating.

The big buns stuffed with meat, Xu Yan felt delicious when she took the first bite. Looking at the three buns in her hand, Xu Yan ate one slowly, and stuffed the remaining two buns directly into the padded jacket , rubbing the oil on her hands on the skirt of her clothes, Xu Yan stood up and ran to the water pipe, bent over and filled her stomach with cold water from the water pipe, Xu Yan who stood up straight patted her rattling stomach proudly Laughed.

Walking back to Yu Guihua, Xu Yan squatted next to Yu Guihua, "Auntie, let's bring some more food tomorrow." Yu Guihua nodded vigorously, "Okay, let's bring more, it's for sale anyway, look at today's The market will only sell better, tsk tsk." Yu Guihua looked around and continued in a low voice, "The people in this city are rich, and a bland and tasteless vegetable can be bought for two yuan. I can buy two catties of pork because of Xiaotao's brains, otherwise we wouldn't know that we can sell it for so much money." Yu Guihua laughed after finishing speaking, and Xu Yan also nodded and smiled.

After eating the buns in her hand, Yu Guihua realized that Xu Yan hadn't eaten, and looked at Xu Yan's empty hands in a strange way, "Swallow, have you finished eating?"

Xu Yan nodded with a smile, then shook her head again, "I ate one, I'm not hungry, I'll keep the rest for Xiaotao." Looking at Xu Yan's smiling face, Yu Guihua felt sore in her heart, said nothing, stood I got up and went to the place where the buns were sold, bought another ten buns for three yuan, walked back to Xu Yan and handed them to Xu Yan, "Here, eat quickly, and give the rest to Xiaotao."

Xu Yan quickly stood up and pushed it to Yu Guihua, "Auntie, this is not possible, how can I let you spend money on buns, I have money in my pocket, I am really not hungry, you give it to Brother Dahai, or keep it for Ergouzi and Daya, the two of them haven't eaten buns in the city yet."

The two of them tore and tore, and finally Xu Yan took two buns, and no matter what Yu Guihua said, she refused to ask for the rest. Yu Guihua had no choice but to slap Xu Yan, and stuffed the remaining buns into the padded jacket Inside, squatting on the ground.

The bus arrived at five o'clock, and Xu Yan secretly counted out two yuan and forty cents while going to the toilet. Before getting on the bus, Osmanthus flower hadn't reacted, so she handed over the money directly. Pinched Xu Yan's face, Xu Yan smiled, the car ran a little slower after dark at night, with money in her pocket, Xu Yan was so sleepy that she didn't dare to sleep until 09:30 When they arrived at the brigade car station, the three people got out of the car in a sleepy state, and were instantly sobered by the cold wind. Zhang Hai hurried to drive the carriage over, and the three got on the carriage and drove home.

Xu Tao kept the greenhouse at home. Although he knew that the vegetables would be good and could be sold, Xu Tao was still worried. It was the first time for my sister to go to the city, could she find a place to sell vegetables?Will he be bullied by the townspeople?For a whole day, Xu Tao spent in worry. It was getting dark, even when it was completely dark, Xu Tao was a little anxious. He went back to the room and checked the time. It was only eight o'clock. To shout, Xu Tao stood in the yard and listened carefully to the voice. Zhang Liang knew that the Zhang family must be worried.

"Zhang Liang, come in by yourself. I didn't lock the gate. It's just hung on the hook. Just take the hook off." Xu Tao stood in the yard and shouted. Hearing Zhang Liang's promise, Xu Tao didn't move, just stood in the yard Waiting, after a while Zhang Liang walked in, with a hint of worry on his face, "Xu Tao, why haven't my mother and the others come back?"

Xu Tao pulled Zhang Liang into the room, "Go into the room first." Zhang Liang followed into the room with his head down, sitting on the edge of the kang, Zhang Liang looked at Xu Tao, "Xu Tao, can something happen? ?”

Xu Tao shook his head, "No, the city is too far away from us, and it takes four hours by car. It might be late to go back and forth, so wait a little longer, maybe I'll be back soon."

Zhang Liang tilted his head and looked at Xu Tao, "How do you know? How do you know that the city is four hours away from us?"

Xu Tao paused, "I overheard what Mr. Zhang said to go to the city, but it takes four hours by car." Zhang Liang said, "His younger sister lives in the city, and he likes to show off at school the most." This." After finishing speaking, he pursed his lips.

Xu Tao smiled, but frowned slightly in his heart, reminding himself to be careful in the future, don't let people think that he has been cheating, Xu Tao doesn't want to spend money on Tiao Dashen'er.

The time passed by one minute and one second, and the three people hadn't come back after ten o'clock. Xu Tao couldn't sit still anymore. He stood up and walked out of the yard. He stood by the gate and kept stretching his neck to watch. Zhang Liang's eyes were a little red, " Xu Tao, tell me what happened, why haven’t you come back yet, can something happen to my mother, brother and elder sister? Or, let’s go out and look for it.”

Xu Tao patted Zhang Liang, and comforted him softly, "It's okay, nothing can happen, the road is so slippery, it must be because the carriage is running slowly, wait a minute." Zhang Liang sniffled and agreed.

Xu Tao led Zhang Liang to stare hard at the door of his house in the dark, while Zhang Daming took the eldest girl Zhang Mei to stand at the door of his house and waited. Zhang Mei had already begun to wipe away tears.

Although Zhang Daming was very anxious, the crying girl beside him forced Zhang Daming to suppress the anxiety in his heart and kept repeating, "It must be nothing, but the car is driving slowly, and I will be back in a while."

At eleven o'clock, the two families were so anxious that their eyes rolled, and they heard the sound of horseshoes vaguely. The stiff expression on Xu Tao's face eased slightly. Before Xu Tao could greet him, Zhang Liang rushed out with a cry. Xu Tao ran forward with one foot deep and one foot shallow. Before he could meet him, he heard Zhang Liang crying and Zhang Hai haha ​​laughing. Rubbing his stiff face, he revealed a smile.

Speeding up his pace and running over, he saw Xu Yan whose face was blue with cold but couldn't hide the excitement in the dim moonlight. Xu Tao knew that the vegetables must have been sold and at the price he said, Xu Tao, who was completely relieved, walked to Xu Yan and helped Xu Yan who hadn't got off the carriage, "Sister, it's freezing."

Xu Tao's soft greeting made the smile on Xu Yan's face brighter, she held Xu Tao's hand hard, turned to look at Yu Guihua, "Auntie, Xiaotao and I are going home first, we will leave at this or that point tomorrow morning, the carriage Put it directly at your house, Brother Da Da can just rush over to pick me up tomorrow morning, you guys hurry home and sleep warmly."

Yu Guihua grabbed Xu Yan, "Swallow, go into the house and have a meal before going back. It's so late, you won't even have a warm meal when you go home."

Xu Yan pulled out her arm and shook her head, "Auntie, no need, I'm not hungry, I'll go back first, you guys go in quickly." After speaking, she dragged Xu Tao towards home.

The siblings ran into the house, Xu Tao let Xu Yan into the house, turned around and went to the stove room, filled a bowl of porridge that Wen had cooked in the cauldron, and returned to the house with a pair of chopsticks and a plate of pickled vegetables. Next, there was a pile of money on the kang table, Xu Tao smiled, walked to Xu Yan, put the porridge on the table first, and pushed the money aside with his free hand, "Sister, hurry up and eat."

Xu Yan agreed, put down the money in her hand and saw the thick millet porridge in front of her, frowned and looked up at Xu Tao, Xu Tao handed the chopsticks to Xu Yan, "Sister, don't worry about it I'm cooking, how are you selling today?"

Xu Yan's eyes lit up all of a sudden, "Xiaotao, you don't know, the grocery shoppers almost started a fight, and the food grabbers surrounded me, my aunt, and Brother Dahai to death, my sister squatted on the ground to collect money except to see Thighs are feet."

Xu Tao smiled and said nothing, picked up the porridge bowl and stuffed it into Xu Yan's hands, "Talk while eating." Xu Yan nodded with a smile, and said something after each mouthful. When he was halfway through the meal, he suddenly groaned, and Xu Tao looked at Xu Yan , "What's wrong?"

Xu Yan smiled mysteriously, "Sister bought you delicious food." After speaking, she turned around and took out a pocket from the padded jacket on the kang and handed it to Xu Tao. Xu Tao took the bag with a little doubt, opened it Look, Baozi?Xu Tao looked up at Xu Yan, Xu Yan took a sip of millet porridge, lifted her chin with a smile, and ordered some steamed buns, "Try the steamed stuffed buns in the city, they are delicious, big meat fillings are too expensive, one yuan Three, buy three yuan and get one free."

Xu Tao looked at the four steamed buns that his sister saved and brought to him. The outer skin was covered with plastic bags, and his heart was trembling. He lowered his head and took a big bite on the cold steamed buns. After swallowing the care hidden in the cold steamed stuffed bun with a stuffy throat, Xu Tao smiled, "Sister, it's delicious."

Xu Yan narrowed her eyes with a smile, and licked her lips, "It's delicious, you go to heat it up, it tastes better when it's hot." Xu Tao agreed and walked out of the room, came to the stove, standing in front of the stove, Xu Tao felt his eyes were hot , Breathing out slowly, Xu Tao put the buns in his hand on the curtain in the cauldron. The bun was stuffed into Xu Yan's mouth. Xu Yan stared at Xu Tao with wide eyes, and Xu Tao laughed.

"Sister, there are four of us, one for each of us. Let's buy some noodles and steam them ourselves. The stuffing you make is much more delicious than this." Xu Yan's chest puffed up unconsciously from Xu Tao's praise, "That's , I learned it on purpose, the handicrafts handed down by Mrs. Zhao's family in our village, and left it to me alone."

Xu Tao quickly put the buns in his mouth into his mouth, wiped his hands, and pointed to a pile of money, "Sister, how much did you sell this one for?"

Xu Yan patted her thigh, "Quickly count, I've been patronizing the vegetable seller, and I don't know how much it is." Xu Tao nodded without saying a word, grabbed a handful of money and put it beside him, one, two, or even ten yuan Xu Tao shook his head secretly. There is still a difference between urban and rural people. They don’t even have a dime. Putting down the money they counted, Xu Yan was a little dazed when the two sisters reconciled and muttered, "198, 198,." Suddenly, he jumped off the kang, brought over the foam boxes piled aside, ran out of the house and came back with a rag, and began to wipe vigorously. Xu Tao didn't understand at first, until he saw Xu Yan wipe Only then did the box react, jumped off the kang helplessly, walked to Xu Yan, pressed Xu Yan's hand, and took the rag, "Sister, go to bed first, don't you have to go out to sell vegetables in the morning? You prepare the box, you hurry to rest."

Xu Yan looked at the box in her hand, then looked at Xu Tao, put down the box, "That's fine, sister is sleeping, you must remember to wipe out two more, three boxes for three kinds of vegetables." Seeing Xu Tao nodding, Xu Yan smiled He stood up, rubbed his eyes, and fell asleep after lying on the kang without taking off his clothes.

A look of distress flashed in Xu Tao's eyes. He lowered his head and wiped the boxes clean. He took three boxes and went back to the greenhouse in the backyard. Watching the time, he started packing boxes at two o'clock, layer after layer, and sighed while tying the quilt. At that time, when buying quilts, my sister wanted to take advantage and buy more, otherwise I could only bring the quilts made by their siblings to make vegetables.After preparing everything, Xu Tao moved the box back to the front room, lit the fire, heated porridge and steamed buns, and after thinking about it, he took out an egg and cooked it for Xu Yan.

After doing everything and looking at the time, it was 15 minutes before three o'clock. He walked into the room and greeted Xu Yan in a low voice. Xu Tao washed the towel and handed it to Xu Yan. When Xu Yan was about to push away, Xu Yan saw that the smile on Xu Tao who was squatting next to her disappeared. Xu Yan thought about selling vegetables to make money, so she smiled, took the egg and cracked open it to eat.

On the 27th day of the twelfth lunar month, Xu Yan was sent away, and Xu Tao began to tidy up the yard. These days, more and more vegetables were brought out every day. Three boxes, Xu Tao feels a headache when he thinks about it. The more people there are on the car during the Chinese New Year, how do these people carry them? He can see the money that can no longer be contained in the small box and Xu Yan who looks haggard because of lack of sleep. So excited that he couldn't close his mouth, Xu Tao didn't say anything, he just tried to give Xu Yan more nutrition as much as possible. Although the only nutritious thing in the house was eggs, Xu Tao still supplied millet porridge with eggs every day.

It was just seven o'clock, before Xu Tao could thank him, Zhang Daming walked into Xu Tao's home, Xu Tao looked at Zhang Daming who opened the curtain and walked in, stood up and greeted him, "Uncle Daming, why are you here?"

Zhang Daming chuckled, "Xiaotao, let's go, quickly take your household registration booklet and go to the brigade with uncle to withdraw money. The food payment is down, let's go to the accountant to withdraw money." Xu Tao frowned slightly, "Uncle , I am the only one left in my house, if I go here, no one will look after the house, and the greenhouse still needs firewood.”

Zhang Daming took Xu Tao with one hand and picked up the padded jacket that Xu Tao put aside with the other, and walked out, "Er Gouzi is here, I will ask his uncle to look after my house, and Er Gouzi to come and show your house, let's go quickly. It’s late, so I don’t know when it will be scheduled.”

Xu Tao agreed, took the padded jacket from Zhang Daming's hand and put it on, said hello to Zhang Liang who was standing in the yard picking bird feathers, and followed Zhang Daming to the team in the team's carriage.

Xu Tao expressed a little emotion when he arrived at the brigade full of people. Farmers count on this land all year round. Finally, the grain money came down a year ago, and they can live a good year with money in hand. After waiting for more than an hour, it was finally counted. Xu Tao, handed the household registration booklet and the grain receipt to the accountant, but after the accountant checked it, he gave Xu Tao less than 300 yuan. Red, trembling all over.
