60s Splendid Life

The three children played in the house for a while. Brothers Da Mao and Er Mao probably knew that their younger brother could not walk, so they did not want to drag him down to play as they did the previous two times. Instead, they sat on a small stool and played with him. small toy.The two brothers had bamboo dragonflies and little grasshoppers handmade by their grandfather, and they all took them out to play with little Bao'er.

"Auntie and sister-in-law, let's go back first, Chenchen Xiaolian and the others are about to leave school." When the wall clock hanging on the wall reached nearly eleven o'clock, Lu Jin got up, hugged their little treasure and prepared to go home went.

"Oh, yes, school is about to end." Aunt Qin looked up at the wall clock on the wall, only to realize that it was so late, "Then you go back, the two children are coming back for lunch."

"It's still raining outside, Xiumei, take the two of them back home, and send them some things by the way." Seeing that it was still raining outside, Lu Jin had to hug his brother and carry things by himself, so many things didn't matter. It's easy to mention, so Aunt Qin asked her daughter-in-law to help Lu Jin carry things back.

"How embarrassing is this, it's too much trouble for my sister-in-law." Lu Jin said embarrassedly.

"It's okay, it's okay, just walk a few steps." Wang Xiumei also has a cool temper. She didn't say anything when her mother-in-law asked her to run errands. She immediately carried the basket and hugged the jar, waiting for Brother Lu Jin to come out.

It's just that their two furry children are going out with her. It's wet outside on this rainy day, and their shoes are wet after going out for a walk.

"Why are you following, it's still raining outside." Wang Xiumei looked at her two sons who were following her and wanted to go out with her, feeling a little headache.

It was Mrs. Qin who coaxed the two grandchildren back by saying that she had candy there.

Wang Xiumei led Lu Jin and his brothers out from the back door of their house. After walking a few steps from the alley, they arrived at the small courtyard where Lu Jin and the others lived. Come to our place to play when you have time, the big one and the two ones like to play with Xiaobao."

"Okay, thank you sister-in-law. Would you like to sit down for a while before going back?" Lu Jin followed the others to the door and asked with a smile.

"No, no, I have to go back and make lunch for the two of them." Wang Xiumei waved to Lu Jin, and went out with an umbrella.

Lu Jin watched them leave, and closed the door behind his back. Knowing that their two children were coming back soon, he didn't lock the door, and just closed the door.

As soon as he entered the house, the door to the yard was pushed open from the outside.

"Brother...Xiaobao...we're back!" Before anyone saw them, the voice came first, and a gust of wind blew, and two children who had returned from school also appeared in front of them.

Looking at the two children who were running out of breath, Lu Jin thought it was funny again, asked the children to put away their schoolbags and drink water, poured water for the two children with a cup, and asked, "Why are you running so fast? Ah, are your clothes wet from the rain?"

"No, we came back with an umbrella." Lu Qinglian took a sip of the water handed over by her brother and replied.

Lu Haochen gulped down a can of water into his stomach, and burped when he took it away.

Lu Jin was dumbfounded. Is the child thirsty or hungry?

Little Baoer, who was playing on the kang, saw his brothers and sisters come back, and crawled out quickly. When he was about to fall under the kang, Lu Jin caught him with his hands. The little guy who was caught was not afraid of returning Giggling happily, Lu Jin was so angry that he slapped the child on the buttocks, and asked, "What should I do if I fell? Are you not afraid of pain?"

"Brother." Little Bao'er wrapped her two small hands around her brother's neck, bouncing around in his arms, and the brothers and sisters who rushed back stretched out their hands.

"You guys play with Xiaobao, I'll bring you lunch." Lu Jin put on the shoes for the child and put the child on the ground.Under his daily coercion, the child was finally willing to wear shoes for a while, but he always tore off the shoes and threw them on the ground when his eyelids lowered.

Now that his brothers and sisters were watching, he wasn't afraid that this child would be obedient and obedient under his nose.

There was still some porridge left in the morning, so he reheated the porridge at noon, and the cake steamed in the morning was still hot in the pot, and it was still hot when he took it out to eat.The three children like to eat hair cakes very much. The siblings who came back from school ate four pieces each, and Xiao Baoer also ate two pieces, and each drank a large bowl of porridge.

When she cleaned up the dishes and went to the kitchen to wash, Lu Qinglian whispered in his brother's ear: "Brother, the second auntie went to school today."

"Oh, did I trouble you?" Lu Jin paused while washing the dishes, and asked.

"No, Second Auntie went to Lu Daqing and they asked who beat Lu Songguang. They didn't even confess to you, but Lu Daqing and the others came to play with my brother today." She told her brother everything.

Lu Jin is not afraid of their second aunt, knowing that the children have made new friends at school, he thinks it is quite good, "Look at my brother, bring him back after school, don't let him go after school Run around with your classmates."

"I know." Lu Qinglian nodded, her younger brother is so stupid, she doesn't think much about what to do if someone kidnaps her.

The two brothers and sisters had a secret talk in the kitchen for a while, and then went out after finishing the washed dishes.

***

The two children came back at noon and had homework to write. Lu Jin wrote a "2" on the notebook for little Bao'er, grabbed the child's hand and led him to write a few, and let the child hold the pen to write by himself.Hearing a knock on the door from outside the yard, he asked a few children to write in the house, and went out to see who was knocking on the door.

Outside the door was Wang Xiumei leading two young women, each with a big basket in their hands.

"Sister-in-law, why are you here? Come in quickly." The rain stopped for a while at noon, and there was a little sun, but judging from the weather, it should still continue to rain.Lu Jin opened the door to invite people in. He probably guessed what Wang Xiumei brought people to their house for.

Wang Xiumei brought someone in, and after introducing the two sister-in-laws to Lu Jin, she explained their purpose for coming.

The reason was that it was raining today. Captain Lu and his two sons went out to work in the newly bought raincoats. Many people saw it. Everyone didn’t dare to ask Captain Lu where they bought the raincoats, so someone found Lu Bowen. I went to ask with brothers Lu Bocheng, but the two brothers didn't say anything at first, but later Lu Bowen revealed to the brother who has a better relationship that their mother bought it for them, so someone went to Aunt Qin's place.

Of course, Mrs. Qin didn't tell everyone. She only told the two women who had a good relationship. The two young women who were sent to buy things were the elders of the family who asked them to come to Lu Jin to buy things. Otherwise, they would not dare to exchange their eggs for something.

"Two sisters-in-laws, come quickly. There are still a few items left. Sisters-in-law, you can come in and see what you like." Lu Jin didn't expect the business to come to him so soon. Three days later, it seemed that Captain Lu's live signboard was still very useful.

Since it was brought by his sister-in-law Xiumei herself, she must have nodded on Aunt Qin's side. He didn't believe in the way his sister-in-law Xiumei saw people, and he also believed in Aunt Qin's way of seeing people, so he brought them with him without much hesitation. They went into the house to choose something.

There are several samples in the room here, ranging from small needles and threads to large raincoats and rain boots.

The three sister-in-laws went into the house to pick things out, and when they left, they all had smiles on their faces, and the baskets on their arms contained the items they exchanged with him, and they went out happily.

Lu Jin sent the man to the door, closed the door behind his back and bolted it, and locked the door of the room when he returned.

When I went back to the house, I saw their little girl opened the window and stuck her head out to look out. Lu Jin pushed her head back, "Why don't you write well?"

Lu Qinglian covered the forehead that was pressed by her brother, and went back to do her homework with a giggle. The little girl was very smart, she didn't ask anything, she didn't even tell her two younger brothers.

After being beaten up by him that day, Lu Songguang probably didn't tell his family when he went back, but he didn't see their second aunt come to their house to make trouble.Even if that woman came to Lu Jin, Lu Jin wasn't afraid of her. It was their son who made the move first, and at most he just counterattacked reasonably. What's more, he didn't hit Lu Songguang hard at that time, otherwise, he wouldn't have been able to get up to himself It's that easy to walk home.

After repairing Lu Songguang, the advantage is that the two children in their family are safe on the way to and from school, and he no longer has to worry about someone intercepting their children on the road to bully them.

It has been raining for the past few days without stopping, and the dozen or so raincoats he brought back have all been sold out one after another, and none of the people who came after him could buy them.

Lu Jin didn't always open the door for anyone who came. He would only open the door for people to come in if his sister-in-law Xiumei personally brought them over.After all, he is not very familiar with the people in the village, and he doesn't know if they really came to buy things or if they have other intentions, so he would rather do less business, and dare to do this business only after ensuring his own safety .

Because Wang Xiumei helped introduce people to him to buy... in exchange for things, he said that he would pay the right person, but the other party refused to accept it, and only said it was a small favor.He knew that the reason why Wang Xiumei helped him must be instigated by Mrs. Qin. Since Wang Xiumei refused to ask for payment, it was a fact that others helped him. In the future, he could find a way elsewhere.

The other pair of rain boots were also sold. In addition to the best-selling raincoat, there are also daily necessities such as the sewing box, aluminum lunch box, kettle, and flashlight that he brought back. They were exchanged for everything.

Every household in the village needs things like needles and threads. In the past, they could only entrust someone to go to the town to buy them. Not to mention expensive, it was more troublesome.Now there are people in the village who can exchange, a few eggs can be exchanged for a box, and everyone is very willing to exchange.There are also things like lunch boxes, kettles, flashlights, etc. They can't buy them at the supply and marketing cooperatives without tickets. Now they can get them without spending money or tickets. As long as the food at home is not so scarce, they are willing to exchange them with Lu Jin What the family wants.

So it's no wonder that these people know that Lu Jin can exchange things here, and those who come here once will definitely come a second time. Unfortunately, when they come back for the second time, the things they saw last time have already been exchanged.

The aunt who couldn't exchange anything still didn't give up and asked: "Is it really gone?"

"Yeah, the other sister-in-law changed yesterday." Lu Jin couldn't do anything about it. There were only so many things. If they came quickly, they would be bought, and if they came slowly, they would be gone. He could only wait for him to go to town next time to get them. Go to the industrial ticket, buy another batch and come back to exchange for everyone.

"Next time there is such a good thing, remember to inform the aunts."

"Okay, thank you aunts, come and sit sometime when you have time."

After sending the people away, Lu Jin bolted the gate of the courtyard.
