Chapter 52: It Hurts a Lot
Jiang Xiaoxiao watched the mother and son of the Qin family leave outside the door, patted her pocket, and prepared to go out to buy some milk powder for her niece.
Then I thought about it and went in to find my own mother. If I wanted to buy milk powder here, I would have to ask for a milk powder ticket. She didn’t have one, and I didn’t know if my mother had one. If she didn’t have one, she would have to borrow it from someone else.
Fan Xiuying was also rummaging around in the house looking for her tickets.
The granddaughter was hungry, and the sound of howling in the house was probably heard by the neighbors. Those who didn't know thought the child was sick.
Only their family knew in their hearts that the child was hungry.
"Milk powder tickets, milk powder tickets, where are the milk powder tickets here?"
This milk powder ticket is a rare thing, how could their family have it?
How could a working-class family have such a thing?
Fan Xiuying was so anxious that she jumped around, wondering who she could borrow from.
Most people don't have this kind of thing, even if she wanted to borrow it.
The neighbors around them are all workers like them. How can others have what their families don’t have?
Jiang Xiaoxiao knew from the look on Fan Xiuying's expression that her mother was also worried here. It seemed she didn't have milk powder tickets.
"Mom, don't worry. Let's do this. I'll go find my uncle. There must be a way. Even if I don't have a ticket, he can probably find a way to get it for me. I have to buy milk powder first and let the child eat enough when he comes back. Otherwise, this will happen. But no.
You'd better cook for your sister first and let her eat something first. I'll buy a chicken for my sister later. You can make chicken soup for her. I'll also buy some crucian carp. I don't know if it's available. "
When Jiang Xiaoxiao mentioned his uncle, he suddenly remembered that his uncle was not here.
"Okay, you go to your uncle first and let him help you think of a solution. I will cook for your sister first. Remember to buy smaller crucian carp and bring it back to make soup. I have to make up for it for your sister. , let her get her food rations as soon as possible, otherwise my little granddaughter will starve to death."
Fan Xiuying finally remembered that she had a younger brother who was a know-it-all.
"Mom, my uncle is not in the supply and marketing cooperative!"
She was helpless because when it came time to hire someone, she had no one.
"Your uncle doesn't work at the supply and marketing cooperative, so where does he go to fool around? When he comes to the house next time, I have to clean it up. He can't just idle around all day."
Fan Xiuying was anxious and angry.
What should I do if I don’t have milk powder?
"Mom, don't be angry. It doesn't seem to be uncle's problem. I heard the director of the supply and marketing cooperative tell me. It seems that grandma is ill and uncle has gone back to his hometown. I originally came back to tell you that we should go back to my hometown to see grandma. Who knows what will happen when I come back to catch up with my second sister?"
Jiang Xiaoxiao finally understood what misfortunes never come singly.
In my previous life, I don’t remember the second sister coming back with her child in her arms.
Maybe the second sister was suffering at home in her previous life.
In this life, it may be because they sent the second sister to the hospital and prevented the second sister from having severe bleeding, including uterine removal.
A lot of things happened in the middle, and his words played a certain role in the second sister. Otherwise, Jiang Xin might have swallowed her anger at home like she did in her previous life.
"Why is your grandma sick? What kind of disease is it? It's so serious. Since your uncle has gone back, it proves that your grandma is seriously ill. What should we do?"
Fan Xiuying was anxious.
My parents don't live in the city, but in their hometown village. Although their hometown is not far from their city, it takes about seven or eight hours to get there by long-distance bus.
However, the old man's body has always been strong and he could still work in the fields at home. Why did he suddenly become ill? His brother came back to prove that it was not a small matter.
Jiang Xiaoxiao shook his head, "I don't know either. I guess others don't know very well. Otherwise, Mom, I'll buy milk powder first and pass my sister's test first. You can call the village and ask your uncle to come over. Ask what the situation is. If it’s serious, you can take the car back tomorrow. If it’s not serious, you can rest assured.”
Mainly because this is all we can do now.
Fan Xiuying nodded, feeling reassured by her daughter's words.
Suddenly I sighed, this child has grown up.
I have really grown up.
She was able to arrange things in such an orderly manner here, which made her, a mother, feel so at ease because of her daughter's words.
"But where can you get milk powder? The supply and marketing cooperative cannot buy it without a ticket."
"Mom, you are stupid! Although you can't buy without a ticket from the supply and marketing cooperative, my uncle is still a member of the supply and marketing cooperative no matter what. I went to ask the director to find a way to get one or two bags at a high price to carry it first. , or I can ask their director, if he can help us find milk powder tickets, we are willing to spend a little money."
Jiang Xiaoxiao felt that such matters should be dealt with by professionals. If the director of the supply and marketing cooperative left it there, there was nothing wrong with them not asking for help.
Fan Xiuying was worried, "Forget it, let me go. You, a little kid, went to the director of the supply and marketing cooperative. If they don't give you face, what can you do?"
Jiang Xiaoxiao smiled and held down Fan Xiuying, "Mom, what you said is wrong. I went to someone who didn't show off my face and rejected me. I'm just a child, it's no big deal. You and my dad are okay. Use other methods to go to the director of Tongtong, or find someone else to think of a solution. If you go up and they reject you, what will you do next? "
Fan Xiuying poked Jiang Xiaoxiao in the forehead.
"You clever little ghost, okay, go first, you go and lead us, if you can't do it, let your mother's old face again."
Jiang Xiaoxiao stuck out her tongue, "Then I'll go."
"You can just go to the supply and marketing cooperative and ask the director, I'll go buy the chicken, fish and so on, I'm familiar with this vegetable market, I know whose products are good, you are a little girl, how can you know which kind of fish is good? We can save time by doing things separately."
Fan Xiuying waved her hand, so that her daughter could run less.
In fact, she felt sorry for her daughter.
Jiang Xiaoxiao agreed and ran immediately. Seeing Jiang Xiaoxiao running so far, Fan Xiuying suddenly remembered that this girl didn't ask for money.
Just when she was about to chase her, she suddenly remembered that Jiang Xiaoxiao probably had money on her, and she had just given this girl money.
He felt warm in his heart.
This child of mine has always only had her family in her heart and never considered herself. This child must have wanted to spend the money on her family.
Fan Xiuying is not a sentimental person. Since the child is so caring, she wants to save more for the child in the future and compensate the child. After all, if the money is not for the child, it can't be obtained out of thin air.
It's not that she is partial. She originally wanted to share it with several children.
But now I think it's better to keep it all for Xiaoxiao.
Xiaoxiao is so good to her sisters and brothers. She has never been selfish and thinks about her family. From this point of view, this child should also let them love her more.
