Chapter 53 Is this the rhythm of meeting the parents?
Su Qingwan took out the cigarette tickets.
Xiang Shijie was startled when he saw the cigarette tickets. After all, these tickets were really rare. Su Qingwan took out six of them at once. No wonder Xiang Shijie didn't react immediately.
But he didn't answer.
Instead, he glanced at Xiao Wei not far away and hesitated to speak.
Seeing what Xiang Shijie meant, Su Qingwan had no choice but to explain to the other party and whispered: "Don't worry, he and I are on the same team. I saw you last time when you delivered something."
Otherwise, she wouldn't have agreed to Xiao Wei being with her. After all, she didn't mind, and she didn't know if Xiang Shijie didn't mind. They were all very wary of being a traitor.
Hearing Su Qingwan's words, Xiang Shijie felt relieved.
"All sold?"
He didn't ask where it came from. Anyway, Xiang Shijie could see that Su Qingwan had a very bright mind and good craftsmanship. He wouldn't be surprised if such a person brought anything.
Su Qingwan nodded, "You can sell it."
Don't use it if you doubt it, don't doubt it if you employ it.
Since she decided to be friends with Xiang Shijie, of course Su Qingwan would not be too serious in this regard, otherwise the cooperation would be uncomfortable.
Xiang Shijie must be more familiar with the prices on the black market than he is.
Xiang Shijie heard Su Qingwan's request clearly and didn't say much. It was still broad daylight. Fortunately, there was no one at the entrance of the alley, otherwise it might bring trouble to Su Qingwan, so he accepted it.
ticket.
"I'll bring it to you when the time comes."
Su Qingwan was not in a hurry. She still had some mung beans in her hand, and asked Xiang Shijie to exchange the money from the sales for ten kilograms of flour. After meeting, she would refund the excess and make up for the less.
She plans to make these mung beans into mung bean cakes. Since Xiao Wei sells them so well, it means there is a market. After all the mung beans are finished, she will have a lot of money in her hand. Then she has other plans.
It's not like Xiang Shijie has never done anything to help others get money and things. What's more, he has a filter for Su Qingwan, so of course he agreed immediately.
He didn't ask a few more questions, and the two of them only cooperated once or twice. Xiang Shijie felt that the relationship was not that good yet, so he could ask Su Qingwan about her plans.
After taking the cigarette ticket, he left.
Su Qingwan settled this matter before walking towards Xiao Wei.
It's still hot in August.
Xiao Wei just stood there. The North's height advantage made him particularly energetic.
Seeing Su Qingwan coming over, he naturally took the other's backpack, pushed the bicycle and asked her, "Is it done?"
Su Qingwan nodded.
Once the relationship between the two was defined as friends, Su Qingwan felt a little melancholy, but she also felt a little relieved. She really wanted her to reject Xiao Wei thousands of miles away. To be honest, she couldn't do it.
In any case, the other party is affectionate, righteous and kind to me, and I still have some thoughts towards Xiao Wei that I can't tell others. It's so easy to become a stranger. Of course, it's a good thing that Xiao Wei didn't press harder, otherwise
According to Su Qingwan's character, she probably wants to run away again.
Su Qingwan planned to buy cigarettes by herself, but Xiao Wei refused directly: "I'll buy them."
His reason was also very strong, "You are so good-looking and you are a lesbian. Buying six packs of cigarettes in one breath is too eye-catching."
Good looks bring a double-edged sword.
There are naturally advantages and disadvantages.
Su Qingwan no longer resisted Xiao Wei so much. After thinking about it, she agreed, "Then I'll buy meat."
You have to queue up to buy meat, so the two of you can go separately and save time.
This time Xiao Wei did not refuse, took the cigarette ticket and money and left.
Su Qingwan ran to the grocery store to buy meat. She was lucky today. When she arrived, there would still be meat for sale. It happened to be a new batch. If she had been less lucky, she might have been disappointed and sold out.
Already.
Su Qingwan gave Xiao Wei five yuan for six packs of cigarettes. She only had more than seven yuan left in her hand, and she had to save some money to buy meat.
I ordered two kilograms of pork belly and one kilogram of pig's trotters, which cost more than two yuan and three kilograms of meat coupons.
Su Qingwan felt a little sick. As expected, what she needed more now was money and tickets. She still had a long way to go before she could achieve freedom of eating.
After buying, Su Qingwan found a shady place and waited for Xiao Wei for a while.
It's only three o'clock now, and it will be about three forty when we get home. If we start preparing at four o'clock, dinner will be ready around five o'clock, so Wang Li and Zhou Qinghe shouldn't have to wait too long.
*
Wang Li, who was about to be invited to a meal, was a little nervous at this time. She whispered: "Qingwan has just received the food and is going to invite us to a meal. We can't go there empty-handed."
She was talking to Zhou Qinghe.
Although Wang Li comes from an average family, she still has a basic upbringing. She knows that when she goes to other people's homes, she has to bring things with her, otherwise she will be very rude. Moreover, she knows something about Su Qingwan's affairs, and she doesn't get along with her family, so her life is very difficult.
miserable.
Zhou Qinghe patted his head and felt that Wang Li was right, "Then I'll bring the toffee. I just sent it from home. Fortunately, I haven't finished it yet."
Wang Li didn't have any candy to take away. She originally chose to go to the countryside for re-education just to lighten the burden on her family. It was impossible for her family to send her anything.
Seeing how distressed she was, Zhou Qinghe said casually, "Don't you have an English dictionary? Why don't you give that as a gift? Comrade Su and Brother Wei are going to be teachers in a farm primary school. Maybe you need it."
Zhou Qinghe also thought very simply. He felt that Su Qingwan had not been exposed to English before, so if he needed to use it later, it would be useful to have a dictionary.
Wang Li has a dream of going to college. Even though it is now a recommendation system, she still imagines that one day she may be able to get into it, so when she came to the countryside, she brought books with her.
It was not easy for Wang Li to get that English dictionary, so she felt a little sad to give it away, but thinking about Su Qingwan inviting her to dinner, she gritted her teeth and took it with her.
Duan Yuetong happened to pass by.
Having heard the conversation between the two clearly, she sneered, "Su Qingwan can give you something good. In the past, I just ate sweet potatoes and corn. I don't know why you are so active."
She felt that Su Qingwan must be looking for an excuse to contact Xiao Wei.
It's a pity that Duan Yuetong can only say harsh words now. If he wants her to appear in front of Su Qingwan and Xiao Wei with her current face, and even beat her to death, wouldn't that be humiliating herself!
Hearing Duan Yuetong's words, Wang Li rolled her eyes and sneered: "No matter what Qingwan invites me to eat, at least she has this intention and wants you to care about so much, so you should just care about your face!"
Thinking of her own face, Duan Yuetong was so angry that her swollen face became even more ugly.
She gritted her teeth.
No, she can't let Su Xiaoyun and Su Qingwan have such an easy time, she must find trouble for them two!
Before four o'clock, Su Qingwan and Xiao Wei arrived at Sujia Village.
As soon as she got home, Su Qingwan started cooking.
Xiao Wei rolled up his sleeves consciously, washed his hands and came to help.
Su Qingwan didn't have the idea that men couldn't cook, but she still stopped Xiao Wei, "You go and stay outside. I'll do the work here, so don't make any trouble."
She knew that Xiao Wei had no talent for cooking.
This is her territory. If she really wants Xiao Wei to help, wouldn't it just cause chaos?
Xiao Wei touched his nose. He seemed to be disliked by his wife.
He coughed lightly and said, "I can still wash the dishes."
"Then you go outside and pick some peppers and eggplants for me." Seeing him like this, Su Qingwan probably wouldn't be happy if she didn't arrange something for him.
Xiao Wei saw that there was really no work he could do in the kitchen, so he had no choice but to walk out obediently.
As soon as I arrived at the main room, I was stopped by someone.
It's Grandma Su.
Grandma Su sat proudly and pointed to the stool in front of her, "Sit down."
