Chapter 36 Gifts
The New Year's Eve dinner was very rich in the evening. Not only did Huo Jianfeng like to eat, but also the dumplings that every household had to eat, plus a plate of cut salted duck eggs. The yolks of each duck egg were covered with oil, a plate of shredded potatoes used in a plate of curds, a plate of thin slices of meat, a plate of bean sprouts and a large bowl of egg sauce, which made everyone eat flat and enjoy it.
There was an important program after the meal, which was that Huo Jianfeng took out his bag and distributed the gifts he brought to everyone.
What I gave my uncle was a pack of Yingchun brand cigarettes.
Cigarettes in this era cannot be bought with money, and they must have cigarette tickets or industrial rolls. Usually, people who smoke these cigarettes are either leading cadres or public officials with fixed jobs. The cigarettes smoked by old rural members are collectively called dry tobacco. They use cut paper to roll them with their own tobacco leaves, or smoke them in a tobacco pot. Such filter cigarettes placed on glass counters in shopping malls are simply unattainable luxury goods for them. A pack of cigarettes costs 20 cents, and they are reluctant to buy them.
Everyone likes it. Although they are reluctant to buy it, they are still very happy if someone can buy it for them.
My uncle Wang Wenyuan took the pack of cigarettes that Huo Jianfeng bought for him, and was both happy and complaining, "Look at your child, why do you buy such expensive cigarettes for me? It's a waste of money. This cigarette costs more than three yuan... Tsk tsk, it's too expensive, it's just a disaster..."
My aunt looked at her man's look of liking and feeling distressed, and said funny, "You just keep holding the child to you, why are you talking about it? Last year, you were still jealous of Zhang Dabaihu, his son bought him a filter cigarette? This time, he doesn't have to be jealous of him. His son will buy him a pack, and our Jianfeng will buy you one. Tomorrow, you can also jealous of him!"
The uncle grinned and smiled, "I think it's okay, I don't like that old boy bragging all day long. My son was so proud that he didn't know what his surname was. He took everything in front of me and showed off. This time I had to squeeze his face well..."
Seeing his uncle's childish side, Han Mingxiu couldn't help laughing. He smiled inadvertently and accidentally bumped into Brother Bing's eyes, making Brother Bing stunned for a moment.
This little girl looks pretty good when she smiles, especially her white and dense teeth, which look like a row of white pearls. She looks so beautiful. She looks like a lot of brushing teeth, unlike those rural girls who have tartar on their teeth and stuffed vegetable leaves into their teeth, like the teeth of movie stars.
"Brother, did you buy anything for me?"
Daran didn't see his brother moving for a long time, nor did he say that he didn't buy anything for him. He couldn't help it anymore, so he asked with shamelessness.
"You pulled me up and asked me if I had bought you what I had bought? Do you know how much it would cost to buy this cigarette for your father? You also asked your brother if you want something, are you shameless?"
Zhang Shuzhen was afraid that Huo Jianfeng wouldn't buy anything for Da Luan. Da Luan was embarrassed to ask this, so she slapped him in the back of Da Luan's head and said to Huo Jianfeng, "Jianfeng, don't listen to him. This broken child knows how to compete all day long, don't pay attention to him!"
Huo Jianfeng took out an iron pencil case from his bag, which also had a bright pattern of Nezha's naughty sea and said, "Buy you a pencil case, you must study hard and improve every day!"
Pencil cases are not as popular as those in later generations. Especially in rural areas, any child who can have a pencil case bought is no different from a child in later generations who gets the latest Apple phone.
No need to ask, just with this pencil case, he will definitely become the focus of the class and even the school when he goes to school, so he can do anything to brag about!
Da Ran took the pencil case, and was so happy that he grinned to his ears, his eyes were gone, and he kept saying, "Thank you, brother, thank you..."
The pencil case was held in my hand, heavy, and there was a clamor inside when it swayed. It was like something was loaded. I opened the pencil case in a mess and now it contained seventy pencils, erasers, rulers, knifes (for sharpening pencils), and other stationery, all of which were brand new.
Having a brand new and fashionable set of stationery is the dream of many children in this era. Although Da Chao is not a good student, he was still surprised to see such cool stationery. He was holding the stationery and running out. He wanted to share his joy with his friends. Zhang Shuzhen finally grabbed him!
