Chapter 41 Money
As soon as Fang Xiaohui left the house, she rushed to the Song family.
She would not let things get out of hand.
Her parents were not the kind of people who felt sorry for their daughter.
Besides, she was not someone's biological daughter.
Now people will be punished by heaven and earth if they don't work for themselves.
…………
Jiang Xiaoxiao followed Fan Xiuying to buy things.
A big bag of things.
She bought more than ten kilograms of cotton alone.
There was not a single cotton ticket left in their family, and Fan Xiuying had borrowed several of them.
"Mom, that's enough, it's almost time to get the wash basin and the hot water bottle, don't buy them, I can't carry them on the road, especially the hot water bottle, which was bumped on the road and broken, and it can't be used when I take it over. It's better for me to buy it after I get to the village. Even if the village is poor, there is always a supply and marketing cooperative or something like that."
She was exhausted.
Her mother wanted to move the entire supply and marketing cooperative back home for her, and she would accept the soaps, shampoos and the like.
These things are necessary, but other things should not be bought if possible.
She knows that the train to the countryside is crowded with people, people squeezed and close to each other.
With just these few things, she might lose them on the way.
She has space.
But those who follow her on the way are all revolutionary comrades who will be with her for a long time in the future.
When people see that you come with nothing, and suddenly you have so many things, you will clearly tell them that there is something wrong with you.
She is not stupid.
Fan Xiuying was also worried by her daughter's words.
Yes, there are too many things needed.
How can this child with such a small body carry so many things? Besides, she needs someone to take care of her on the way, and she may lose some things. It is better to prepare some money for her daughter.
The two finally returned home. Fan Xiuying saw that her daughter Fang Xiaohui was not at home. The house was empty, without anyone.
So she closed the door, pulled her daughter into her room, closed the curtains and the door.
"Mom, what are you doing? Are you going to steal?"
Jiang Xiaoxiao was so tired that she almost collapsed.
Because there are many people going to the countryside recently, the supply and marketing cooperatives and department stores are almost crowded with people. People squeeze in and squeeze out. It takes physical strength, and most people can't bear this kind of physical work.
This body is not like the one in the previous life, which has been trained with steel bones after long-term hard work. Now it is delicate.
"You are just talking nonsense."
Fan Xiuying opened her cabinet, and the big wardrobe was locked firmly.
Yesterday, Jiang Laoshi had exchanged the gold bars for money for her.
These two gold bars were actually exchanged for more than 5,000 yuan.
More than 5,000 yuan.
Fan Xiuying didn't sleep well last night. The monthly salary of the couple was only more than 40 yuan.
These two gold bars were equivalent to their salary for ten years. How could the couple sleep well!
At the beginning, they were uneasy, and later they were a little worried.
Mainly worried about being robbed at home.
There are many thieves in the past two years, and there are many who break into houses and steal.
Fan Xiuying locked the money in a small box, put the small box in a camphorwood box in the cabinet and locked it, and then locked the outside of the wardrobe. It was a heavy lock, otherwise she would not be able to go out today.
Carefully opened the money in the handkerchief and showed it to Xiaoxiao.
"Silly girl, there are 1,000 yuan in it. Mom will put it on you in case you need it urgently, but you can't put it all in one place. I have thought about it.
When the time comes, I will sew a few more pockets on your clothes and vests, and pin the money in them with a pin. When you go out, you can be careful and only take money from one place."
Fan Xiuying gestured with the money, and she had already started to think about how to sew pockets on her daughter.
Jiang Xiaoxiao's eyes were red.
In her previous life, when she left the Fang family to go to the countryside, the Fang family only put five yuan on her.
Even bedding and other things were not prepared for her. She was just left alone with five yuan to go to the countryside.
You know what five yuan can do?
She went there alone, and she didn't even have a thin quilt in the winter.
If it weren't for the kind-hearted Jia Shu who took care of her.
She would have died there long ago.
There would be no her later.
"Mom, this money is too much. You keep it in your hands. There are many places in the family where money is needed. Brother will replace Dad's work in the future, and the income of the two of you will be less. I don't want you to work so hard. You are pasting paper boxes from morning till night. Your fingers are rotten and cut by the paper boxes. It won't work for a long time.
I originally wanted you to keep this money with you. In the future, you will have money for the betrothal gift for my eldest brother's marriage and whatever money the family needs. You will have money at hand and you won't worry. What's the point of giving me so much? I don't need to spend money there. Think about it, it's the countryside. Even if I want to spend money, is there a place to spend it?"
Jiang Xiaoxiao pushed the money back.
That's what she had in mind, otherwise she wouldn't have gone to steal it.
Fan Xiuying smiled, "You silly child. Some people complain about having too much money! You're just silly! Your parents put this money with you because they're afraid that you might need it urgently and you won't have time to send a telegram when you need it. It's better to keep some money with you than to have no money when you need it. Your parents have suffered from money all their lives and know that life is hard without money.
Besides, when you go to the countryside, life there will be even harder. Why do parents need so much money? The two of us still have hands and feet, and we are strong enough to work. Parents have already discussed this money. This is for you children, and each of you will get some.
Parents save it for you, and when there is an emergency, everyone will use it. Your father and I still have pensions. Although we can't say that we can live a good life, we can definitely eat and dress warmly. Don't worry about it. "
Fan Xiuying stuffed the money into Jiang Xiaoxiao, then quickly stuffed her small box back into the big box, locked the big box, and then locked the closet.
That series of actions was done in one go.
Jiang Xiaoxiao was amused.
"Mom, you are so nice! "
She was holding her mother and acting like a spoiled child.
Fan Xiuying held Jiang Xiaoxiao and stroked her long hair.
"You, mom is really worried about you going to the countryside. You have never suffered in your life. How much suffering will you have to endure when you suddenly go there! You are just a disobedient child. Your brother is thick-skinned and what kind of suffering can he not endure when he goes to the countryside? Look at you, it would be so good to stay with your parents, but you have to suffer this."
She poked Jiang Xiaoxiao's forehead hard.
Jiang Xiaoxiao smiled and rubbed her head against Fan Xiuying's shoulder.
"Mom, you and my dad can't protect me for a lifetime. After all, I have to walk the road ahead by myself. I would rather suffer a little now than suffer for a lifetime."
Fan Xiuying sighed.
Yes, they can't protect this child for a lifetime!
