Xing'an Mountains 1984: Starting from climbing mountains to support the family

Chapter 187 Returning Home Happy
However, when Chen Weidong took Liu Xueting and the children into the second floor, they did not notice a long queue.

Maybe because Heisong County is a small place and a sewing machine costs only one or two hundred yuan, not many people can take out so much money at once and are willing to buy it, so most people are just there to watch the fun.

There are a wide variety of goods on the containers, all of which are relatively high-end goods in the county.

Chen Weidong immediately noticed the sewing machine placed in the middle of the counter.

The black shell was decorated with gilded patterns, and it looked brand new and beautiful. He turned around and looked at Liu Xueting.

I saw that Liu Xueting's eyes brightened a lot.

She is from this era after all.

She has no resistance at all to a sewing machine, something that all girls long for.

"Wife, do you like it?"

Chen Weidong pursed his lips, smiled and asked softly.

Liu Xueting came back to her senses, looked at Chen Weidong and nodded slightly.

"Ah."

She responded, her eyes fell on the Butterfly sewing machine, and she bit her lip again, feeling quite distressed.

"It's just too expensive."

Chen Weidong was delighted when he heard this.

"As long as you like it."

After Chen Weidong finished speaking, he carried the two little kids in his arms and walked into the store.

"Want to buy anything?"

Nowadays, sales clerks in department stores, whether in big cities or small towns, are all the same, looking down on people.

In comparison, the attitude of the sales clerks at the supply and marketing cooperative is better.

Seeing Chen Weidong come in, the salesperson stood behind the counter and did not come over immediately.

It’s not that I don’t look down on it.

Just not enthusiastic.

He has a lazy look and likes to buy or not.

Chen Weidong didn't care.

Most salespeople are like this these days.

"How to sell sewing machines?"

Chen Weidong put the child on the ground and handed him to Liu Xueting, and he walked forward and asked.

The salesperson was stunned.

Finally, he looked over here.

"What brand is it?"

"Butterfly card."

"Butterfly brand?"

The salesperson stretched out his voice, walked out from behind the counter, and finally came in front of Chen Weidong.

"Butterfly brand sewing machines are supplied by ticket. One sewing machine ticket requires thirty industrial coupons."

"Different brands have different prices for sewing machines. Butterfly is the most expensive! It costs one hundred and seventy-eight dollars."

These days, sewing machines are divided into different grades.

The Butterfly brand came from Shanghai, has good quality, and is the most expensive among the few sewing machines in the county.

How many girls dream of it!
Chen Weidong didn't say much, it was pretty much what he knew.

He took out thirty industrial coupons and a sewing ticket from his pocket.

"The tickets and coupons are here."

Chen Weidong: “This is money.”

He took out another one hundred and seventy-eight yuan and handed it over.

The tickets and money were all there, and the salesperson finally became a little enthusiastic.

"Wait a minute, I'll issue an invoice, and I'll find a gay man to help you move down together!"

The salesperson went to issue an invoice.

Liu Xueting stood in front of the brand new Butterfly sewing machine, a little dazed.

The sewing machine in front of me was bought by Chen Weidong.
Since marrying Chen Weidong and giving birth to six daughters, Liu Xueting's biggest wish was that her daughters could have enough food to eat. As for owning a sewing machine of her own, Liu Xueting didn't even dare to dream of it.

So beautiful!

Black and gilt go so well together.

The roulette wheel on the right side is turned gently by hand, and the sewing machine starts.

When the chassis is stepped on and pressed back and forth, it will make a clicking sound.

Liu Xueting felt happy and delighted.

She couldn't help but turn her head to look at Chen Weidong.

"Thanks……"

She spoke softly.

Chen Weidong came over and smiled at her.

Sincere and gentle.

"We are an old married couple, so we don't talk about this."

Chen Weidong stared at her and said seriously: "As long as you like it."

Chen Weidong turned around to look at the four little kids who were curiously looking at the sewing machine, and his eyes softened unconsciously.

He looked back at Liu Xueting and said word by word: "I said I would let you and the child live a good life."

Liu Xueting's cheeks felt hot.

She lowered her head and said softly: "I understand."

Chen Weidong originally wanted to say something.

The salesperson has returned with the invoice.

With a warm smile on her face, she handed the invoice to Chen Weidong with both hands.

"Congratulations!"

Chen Weidong also smiled and nodded in response. Not long after, another male staff member came. Together with Chen Weidong, they carried the sewing machine down.

along the way.

The brand new Butterfly sewing machine attracted a lot of attention.

Everyone is envious and sighs.

"Oh, look, someone is buying a sewing machine again! When can I get one?!"

"It's so difficult to get a sewing machine these days. There are only so many tickets every year! Where do we have the channels?!"

"Tsk, forget it. Even if we can get the tickets, we can't get the money together! It's only one or two hundred yuan. Who has that much spare money?"

The voices of people around him chirped.

Chen Weidong didn't care and he and the male comrade who was helping him carefully lifted the sewing machine onto the donkey cart.

Nowadays, a sewing machine is made of real materials, it is not light! !
"Thanks!"

Chen Weidong handed over a cigarette.

When the other party saw that it was Yingchun brand high-end cigarettes, he quickly reached out to take it and thanked him again.

Liu Xueting came over with four little girls, and the family got on the donkey cart. Chen Weidong turned around and greeted the security guard and others, and then, under the gaze of everyone, he slowly drove the donkey cart away.

........................

On the streets of the county, a donkey cart was pulling a sewing machine with four beautiful babies and a young woman on it.

The woman was extremely beautiful, with almond-shaped eyes, bright and clear, and fair and delicate skin.

The four little babies are also smart and cute, white and tender, and round, just like the dolls in New Year pictures.

Chen Weidong drove the donkey cart and took the four of them, their mother, to the supply and marketing cooperative to buy some sundry household items. Just as they were about to leave, Liu Xueting suddenly walked to the innermost part and took out something.

"Take one of these too. We have used up all the firecrackers at home during the New Year!" Liu Xueting said.

Chen Weidong was stunned.

He took one look at the firecrackers in her hand and burst into laughter.

"Ah."

Chen Weidong took it from Liu Xueting and handed it to the salesperson at the supply and marketing cooperative, "I want this one too."

"Sure! One dime per hook! Here's a total of eight yuan and sixty-three cents!"

The salesperson handed the bill to Chen Weidong. After paying the money, Chen Weidong walked out of the supply and marketing cooperative carrying a bunch of things wrapped in oil paper.

Then the little girls bought the candied haws they had been craving for. Da Ni and Er Ni did not come, so this time Chen Weidong bought six or seven more strings!
There are too many children, including two children from my eldest brother's family, a godson and a goddaughter.

Tanghulu is not expensive, so Chen Weidong bought some more and asked them to have a taste! The Tanghulu was wrapped in oil paper.

"Dad, eat~"

Xiaoliu pointed at the candied haws wrapped in oil paper with his little hand and called out in a baby voice.

"Sixth sister, you can't eat it. Wait until you get home to eat it with your sister. If you finish eating it now, there will be no more for you!"

"Yeah, yeah, that's right!"

"eat together!"

The three little girls refused to eat and did not let Xiaoliu eat. However, except for Xiaoliu who was not afraid of Xiaowu, the other sisters did not dare to resist and could only obey.

By the time Chen Weidong had finished buying the candied haws, it was almost noon, so he went to the noodle restaurant.

The family of six had a meal, and then drove the donkey cart back home to buy three pounds of pork from the butcher's shop.

"Uuuu~ Go home!"

Along the way, the four little girls were dancing with joy. After all, they had bought candied haws. They were very satisfied and were eager to go home to eat them!

But the journey back was smooth. Halfway through, the little donkey gave up. It might be because the sewing machine was too heavy, and it was really too heavy to carry two adults and four children!
So Chen Weidong had to get off the sled himself and lead the donkey in front. When he went back, it was almost dark!

Jiuqutun.

Wu Xiuqin stood at the door, poked her head out, and looked outside again and again.

"Oh my! What time is it Weidong? Why hasn't he come back yet? Did something happen on the way?!"

She finished her words.

Behind him, Chen Guangtian suddenly knocked on his pipe and his face darkened.

"What are you talking about? You don't keep your mouth shut!"

Chen Guangtian: "It's not even dark yet! What could have happened? Besides, your son just went to the county town to buy something, why are you saying such depressing words?!"

This time, Wu Xiuqin rarely confronted Chen Guangtian.

Yang Xuehua, who was standing by, was afraid that Chen Guangtian would quarrel with Wu Xiuqin again, so she tried to smooth things over by saying, "Dad, you should talk less. Mom is also worried about Weidong!"

Wu Xiuqin nodded. Although she was still worried, she could only rub her hands and prepare to go back and wait.

"Grandma, are mom and dad back?"

Da Ni and Er Ni are doing their homework at their grandparents' place! Xiao Fei also came to do his homework, but while he was doing it, he started playing on the side.

"He hasn't come back yet! I'll go heat up the food, let's eat first! Xiaofei, have you finished your homework?"

Wu Xiuqin said.

She had originally planned to wait for Chen Weidong to come back to eat together, so the food was covered with upside-down plates on the stove. It should be cold by now!
"Grandma, I'll go see if my uncle is back!" Xiao Fei jumped up and ran out upon hearing that.

Ever since Chen Weidong brought Xiaofei a lot of delicious food, Xiaofei has been particularly close to his uncle.

Every time I see Chen Weidong, he calls him uncle and is especially nice to his sisters.

Wu Xiuqin said, "Okay! Go check and see why your uncle hasn't come back yet. He can't even make it in time for dinner!"

"it is good!"

Xiaofei ran out.

Wu Xiuqin had just finished heating up the food, and unexpectedly, just as she lifted the lid of the pot and picked up the plate, she heard a surprised shout from outside the door.

Xiao Fei's voice suddenly rose several degrees.

Wu Xiuqin was startled.

"What's wrong? What happened?!"

Wu Xiuqin quickly put down the dish, turned around and ran out. Dani and Erni also ran out quickly.

Outside the door, Xiaofei ran back with an excited look on his face.

He stretched out his hand and pointed at the donkey cart that slowly appeared not far away, jumping up and down.
