Chapter 90 A box of gold jewelry

At the end of October, the temperature has dropped to zero degrees.

Grandma Su read the letter with excitement, over and over again, and couldn't get enough of it.

It was only after Su Xiaoruan came back that she heard from her father that her uncle had written a letter saying that he was coming back this year to celebrate the New Year.

This is a great joy for their family.

Su Xiaoruan was also happy to hear this. After all, he had benefited so much from his uncle in the past, so he had to thank his uncle in person.

Besides, my grandma and I have often used my uncle's name to do things in the past six months, so it would be good to meet and talk to each other.

In addition, Su Xiaoruan thought of his cousin who was in the army. He still needed to be properly reminded of certain things.

"Nai, it's a great thing that uncle comes back to celebrate the New Year. If it weren't for the photo of uncle at home, I would have almost forgotten what he looks like."

Grandma Su rubbed Su Xiaoruan's hair, narrowed her eyes and said, "Yes, it has been five years since I came back. Does Ruanbao still remember your two cousins?"

Su Xiaoruan recalled it carefully, but it was really a bit blurry.

"Your first cousin came back twice, and your second cousin came back once. It's normal that you don't remember. I don't know if your two cousins ​​can come with you this time."

Su Jianye couldn't bear to break his mother's fantasy and nodded: "As long as they are free, they will definitely come back."

Grandma Su smiled and looked away.

"You are going to serve as a soldier. People in the army cannot make the decisions themselves."

In any case, everyone was very happy to learn that Su Jianguo was coming back to celebrate the New Year.

The next day, Su Guoan came over specifically to verify.

"Auntie, how many days can Brother Jianguo stay at home when he comes back?"

Grandma Su smiled and said: "I don't know, the letter didn't say it. But he hasn't been back for five years. The letter said that he hasn't taken a vacation in the past five years. If he saves it together, he should be able to stay for two more years."

God."

Su Guoan was also happy: "Yes, I haven't seen him in several years. But our place is not close to Kyoto, and it takes two or three days by train."

"I don't understand this. I've never taken a train. By the way, Guoan, you're here just now. Can you help us keep an eye out for cotton?"

Su Guoan raised his eyebrows: "Auntie, do you want to make cotton-padded clothes?"

"Don't we have to make cotton-padded clothes and quilts? Jianguo's daughter-in-law only came back once. The family was in trouble at that time, and we couldn't let the eldest daughter-in-law live well for a few days. If we can come back with you this time, we won't have to give up food and clothing.

All the expenses have been prepared."

Su Guoan thought it made sense, but cotton was really hard to get.

There are few cotton growers here, and if there were any at the supply and marketing cooperative, it would be impossible for Zhao Yingzi to keep silent.

"Okay, I'll just keep an eye on it for my aunt."

When Su Jianye came in, he happened to get an overview.

"Mom, why don't you ask my second sister?"

Naturally, there is cotton in the county textile factory, but it comes in through normal channels for processing and production, and it is impossible to buy and sell it privately.

"Ask. If there's a way to do it, do it. If there's no way, just ask first."

At night, Su Xiaoruan was lying on the bed, listening to her grandma talking about making new quilts and new cotton-padded clothes.

"Nai, you don't have to worry about the cotton-padded clothes. My uncle is a soldier and the clothes he wears are issued by the state. We don't need to worry about it. He won't get cold. Besides, they have more abundant supplies in all aspects in Kyoto than we do here. Let's just prepare

A few new quilts would be nice.”

Grandma Su slapped her forehead and said, "If you hadn't reminded me, I would have forgotten about this."

"Mom, let dad take the cloth coupons and money and go to the county department store to have a look. There are all kinds of things there, and I heard from my classmates that there are ready-made quilts for sale."

These days, all aspects of supplies are fully controlled by the state, and food and use are still very conscientious.

It's not like something like black-hearted cotton will appear twenty or thirty years later.

"Okay, let your dad go take a look tomorrow."

Su Xiaoruan secretly went to find Huo Yunlei and asked him to help him take a leave.

At about three o'clock in the middle of the night, Su Xiaoruan got dressed lightly. As soon as she went out, she saw Su Jianye waiting for her.

"Come up quickly."

Su Xiaoruan giggled and said, "Dad, let's go out and sell some good things today."

"What good stuff?"

Su Xiaoruan didn't say it directly, but said mysteriously: "I'll tell you when I get to the county."

The father and daughter first went to the state-owned restaurant and brought over some of the game Su Xiaoruan had obtained recently.

Fortunately, this master has to prepare breakfast today and is on the morning shift, otherwise, it would be really difficult to take action.

After all, it was not a serious business, so the master did business with them at the back door of the hotel.

After that, the father and daughter went to the black market.

In the blink of an eye, they have not been here for more than two months.

Su Xiaoruan was thinking that they would buy a lot of things this time and had to replenish their coffers as soon as possible.

Another reason is that Su Xiaoruan wants to wander around the black market to see if he can catch something.

Su Jianye put out a few bottles of wine, which were in short supply.

In addition to this, Su Xiaoruan also got him some kelp to sell.

Anyway, it’s guaranteed to be unique.

Su Xiaoruan quickly walked back and forth on this street and came out to sell items, most of which were food, some with defective cloth or second-hand watches.

Su Xiaoruan was wandering around when she saw someone standing against the wall with his hands folded and nothing on display at his feet, but from the look on his face, it was clear that he was here to sell something.

"This little brother, what are you doing?"

The young man glanced at her and saw that she was a middle-aged woman. He noticed that the material of her clothes was not bad, and his eyes flashed.

"I have some jewelry for sale, do you want it?"

Su Xiaoruan's eyelids twitched and she noticed that what he said was; some!

Not the same thing!

"Where is it? I have to see how it looks."

The young man looked around and whispered: "Come with me."

Su Xiaoruan followed him, turned a corner and walked dozens of steps before entering a dilapidated house.

"You wait."

The young man entered the house and soon came out with a small box in his hand.

Su Xiaoruan opened the box and took a look, and was really surprised.

There are gold bracelets, gold necklaces, gold rings, everything!

Who dares to hide so many good things in their hands these days?

"Young man, where did you get this thing?"

"Stop asking, just tell me if you want it or not."

Su Xiaoruan hesitated, mainly because he wanted to give this young man a hand.

"You can have it, but with so much jewelry, it's not cheap, right? If it's too expensive, I can't afford it."

There was a glimmer of hope in the young man's eyes, "It's not expensive, and I don't want a ticket. Just give me money. If you don't have enough money, you can give me food."

Su Xiaoruan was moved.

Exchange for food?

This can be done!
