Chapter 47 47. Wool socks

"Weigh me three pounds," Lin Qingxi agreed without thinking. The price was not expensive, and besides, she was not short of money.

"Girl Xi, this is too expensive," Zhou Jin tugged on Lin Qingxi's sleeve and whispered. Three yuan a pound is so expensive, she can't take it.

"It's okay, grandma, I have money. Besides, I also want to knit two pairs of socks and send them to my elder brother. The conditions there are very difficult and supplies are very scarce," Lin Qingxi said calmly. She didn't lack this.

Point some money.

After hearing Lin Qingxi's words, Zhou Jin didn't say anything else. If their children wanted to be filial to their elders, could they really refuse?

In addition to woolen yarn, Lin Qingxi also bought a whole piece of coarse cloth. She planned to give Zhou Jin, Zhou Daye and Lin Qingping a set of summer clothes. The remaining cloth was used to make some large pants for the Lin Yizheng brothers.

Fortunately, Lin Qingxi went to the black market before the New Year and exchanged some cloth tickets, otherwise she would not have been able to afford a whole piece of cloth. After shopping, Lin Qingxi took everyone home.

After returning home, it was getting dark. Lin Qingxi put her things in the main room and took Xiang Yijing to the kitchen to prepare dinner.

Dinner was much simpler than lunch. After dinner, Lin Qingxi boiled a pot of hot water for everyone to soak their feet, and then everyone went back to their houses to rest.

The next day, Lin Qingxi cut out all the coarse cloth and took Xiang Yijing and Zhou Jin to make clothes at home. Lin Yizheng took Lin Yirong and Xiang Yikang out for a stroll. Lin Qingxi thought about Lin Yizheng

He was also an older child, so he followed him.

Even though Lin Yizheng is only in his early ten years, he is much better than his peers. Although it is inseparable from the education of Lin Qingxi and Lin's father and mother, what is more important is his own sensibleness and intelligence.

Therefore, Lin Qingxi was relieved that he would take his brothers out to play and get familiar with the surrounding environment. This was what Lin Qingxi wanted to see.

In the blink of an eye, Lin Qingxi and her party stayed in Qinghe City for three days, and the summer clothes for the Zhou Jin family, Lin Qingping and his wife, and large pants for Lin Yizheng and others were also prepared.

In the past two days, apart from buying groceries, Lin Qingxi has been staying at home making clothes.

This day happened to be the day when school started for Lin Yizheng and the four of them. Anyway, all four of them were in elementary school. Yizheng was originally in fifth grade, Yirong and Yijing were in third grade, and Yikang only went to school and was in first grade, so

Lin Qingxi let the four of them study in a primary school, which was only about ten minutes' walk from home.

Lin Qingxi got up early in the morning. She made breakfast for the family, and Zhou Minghui and the other two got up. After breakfast, the three brothers went to work in the textile factory.

Although the three of them have just arrived, they have a good relationship with their colleagues. After all, the three of them are not stupid, they work seriously and hard, and they are also very open-minded.

As soon as Zhou Minghui and the others left home to go to work, Zhou Jin and Zhou Daye brought their four children to the main room. After breakfast, the family did not even bother to clear away the dishes, so they took their four children to the court.

He rushed to Qinghe Primary School in Qinghe City.

In this era, primary school lasted from first to fifth grade, junior high school lasted for first and second grade, high school lasted four years, and college lasted five years.

When Lin Qingxi and her family arrived at Qinghe Primary School, they were frightened by the huge crowd of people in the school. Today is the first day of school registration, and there are so many students and parents who came to register.

In this era, there is no argument that students are not allowed to study. On the contrary, many families send their children to school because they know that only by reading and literacy can they have a job and a good future.

Whether they live in cities or rural areas, this is the same idea. Only a very small number of families that favor sons over daughters will only send their sons to study, while their daughters are used for exploitation.

Lin Qingxi squeezed into the crowd, found the teacher, signed up Lin Yizheng and the others, paid the tuition, and left the school with Zhou Daye and his wife.

As for Lin Yizheng and the others, they still have to stay to collect their books. After collecting their books, they can go home. They have a rest in the afternoon and will officially start class tomorrow.

Lin Qingxi did not take Zhou Daye and the others to go shopping. The three of them bought a fish, two pieces of tofu and a pound of meat after leaving school, and then went home to prepare lunch.

At noon, Lin Yizheng and the four of them returned home together and had a feast prepared by Lin Qingxi.

After eating, everyone went back to their rooms to rest. At two o'clock, Lin Yizheng and the four of them were woken up by Lin Qingxi and went to school.

In the main room, Lin Yizheng and the other two went to school. Lin Qingxi and the others were sitting in the main room to keep warm. She was crocheting woolen socks while chatting and joking with Zhou Jin.

"Girl Xi, don't tell me, it's inconvenient to live in the city. You have to spend money to buy everything," Zhou Jin shouted, her tone full of dissatisfaction with living in the county town.

"Grandma, that's what it's like to live in the county town, but there are still so many people who like to live in the county town! And not everyone can live in the county town. People who don't have jobs or county town registration cannot live in the county town. It's better to live in the countryside, but

I don’t have a ticket to buy anything!”

As Lin Qingxi spoke, she was knitting woolen socks quickly with her hands. She was so skilled at knitting these things that she could do it even with her eyes closed.

"What Xi Yatou said is that no matter how bad the county is, there are still many men rushing to the county. Young people with jobs can easily find a partner," Zhou Daye said sharply.

"My grandpa summed it up brilliantly," Lin Qingxi said with a smile: "Grandma, grandpa, I plan to go back in two days. The village is also very busy. I will go back to the village after these socks are knitted and sent. You want to

Don’t you want to spend a few days in the city?”

"No more fun, let's go back with you," Zhou Jin shook his head. Zhou Daye also smoked his cigarette silently and said nothing. Lin Qingxi stopped talking and concentrated on knitting socks.

Soon, two days passed. Lin Qingxi packed up the socks she had knitted, the summer clothes she had made for Lin Qingping and his wife, and some bacon, and packed them up together to go to Lin Qingping's place on the border.

After sending the things, Lin Qingxi and her group packed up their things, found an ox cart, and took the ox cart back to Zhoujiatun.

After staying in Qinghe City for so many days, Zhou Daye and Zhou Jin were very satisfied. Lin Qingxi took them to play and eat in Qinghe City, and also bought things for the two elders.

I am very happy and feel that my life has not been in vain.

After returning to Zhoujiacun, Zhou Daye and Zhou Jin often went out to show off to their old brothers and sisters, which made those people feel sad and envious.

But there is no way. Who can make Lin Qingxi both filial and capable? Who can make their sons and grandsons work in the fields and not be able to earn extra money to buy them clothes, so that the family can have enough food.

They were already very happy.

Everyone has his or her own way of life and destiny, and you cannot compare yourself with others!
