Chapter Sixteen Watching Movies
She fell in love with Zhao Hongqi at just one glance.
This fabric would be very beautiful if used as a skirt.
"Go to the back door of the supply and marketing cooperative and wait for me. I'll be there in a moment."
Lin Xi knew there was a way, so she closed the bag and left the supply and marketing cooperative gate without saying a word.
Not long after, Zhao Hongqi came out, and now he could see the fabric in the bag clearly, and couldn't help but exclaimed: "So many?"
Lin Xi: "There are 70 feet in total. No tickets are required. I will give you 80 cents per foot."
Zhao Hongqi is a seller, so he can settle accounts, but he has already begun to calculate in his mind.
The price in the store is one yuan per foot, but you have to ask for a ticket. If she doesn't want the ticket and sells it for one yuan, then she won't have to worry about selling it.
A net profit of 2 cents, 70 is fourteen yuan. It’s almost half a month’s salary of hers!
"Sister, my name is Zhao Hongqi, please call me Sister Hongqi."
As she said that, she took out eight yuan from her pocket and said, "Can we discuss it? I'll give you these eight yuan first. I keep all my salary with my mother. I want to tell her that she will definitely cross-examine me again. I'm annoyed."
.Can I give you the rest after I sell the fabric?"
Lin Xi thought that even if she could run away, a monk would not be able to run away from the temple. Moreover, if the development was good, this would also be an opportunity in the future, so she took the money and said: "Sister Hongqi, you can sell it first, and I will come back in two days to get the rest."
become."
After the two parties agreed, Lin Xi went to the commune market again.
In the market, there are several salesmen from the communes who set up stalls there all year round, and the items in them do not require tickets.
Lin Xi bought a pound of meat for eighty cents. When he saw a small piece of white meat left next to him, he thought about the bottomless meat and oil jar at home, so he bought it too.
When she got home, Fan Xiumei saw that she had bought meat, and said with some distress: "I just killed the chicken yesterday, and I'm buying meat today. What a waste of money."
Lin Xi hugged her arm and acted coquettishly: "Mom, now that I can make money, I will let you eat meat every time from now on. You look thin, you should make up for it."
As she said that, she took out the medicine she had bought before: "Mom, today I went to the commune and stopped by the post office to ask. What a coincidence, the medicine has arrived."
Fan Xiumei looked at the two bottles of medicine: "It should cost a lot of money, right?"
Lin Xi started scooping out water and flour to make dumplings: "Mom, don't always think about money. Your body is the most important thing. If you recover, my dad, me and my brothers will be able to rest assured and wait for the eldest brother to marry."
If you have a sister-in-law and give you a grandson, your life will get better and better."
Fan Xiumei couldn't help but laugh at what she said: "I'm not worried about your brothers. You are a girl. Mom hopes you can live well. This woman's marriage is equivalent to a second reincarnation."
While the two women were talking, the village radio suddenly hissed.
After a while, the voice of party secretary Feng Shangjin came from inside, which roughly meant that the village had been busy harvesting wheat recently and the members had worked hard. Then several brigades jointly invited movie projectionists from the town to show movies to everyone.
At six o'clock in the evening, it will be played on time at Shengli Primary School.
As soon as this news came out, the whole village immediately became excited, and the threshing floor was even more lively, and the cheers almost spread throughout the village.
Because there was a movie, all the members were not interested in working, so the captain simply let everyone go back early.
When the father and son returned home, they were very happy to see dumplings eaten at night.
Lin Youfa and his sons washed their faces and came over to help.
As soon as the dumplings were taken off the pot, a little head poked his way through the door.
Lin Xi deliberately teased him: "Ah, who is this?"
Shen Xiaofei's short legs paused as he was about to step forward.
Fan Xiumei glared at her, walked to the door and pulled him in: "Why are you here by yourself?"
"My dad said he would pick you up later and we want to go watch a movie together."
Looking at his sunburned little face, Lin Xi felt itchy and wanted to go up and squeeze it.
"Pick me up, who am I?"
Shen Xiaofei said reluctantly: "Little aunt."
"What a good boy." Lin Xi couldn't hold it back and pinched his chubby cheek: "My aunt's house will cook dumplings. You can eat them here later."
Looking at the white and fat dumplings, although Shen Xiaofei was very moved, he still refused: "I have to go home. My dad won't let me ask for food at other people's houses."
"This is not someone else's house. Just stay and eat. I will tell your dad personally when I see him later."
"Okay then." Shen Xiaofei nodded reluctantly and agreed.
Fan Xiumei: "I remember I still have some melon seeds at home. I'll fry some for you to take over later."
Her proposal was unanimously approved by the children.
Soon the dumplings were out of the pan, and Lin Jianjun came back with half a sack of stuff.
In addition to the old clothes collected for Lin Xi, there were also some miscellaneous things that he collected himself.
I saw dumplings being eaten at home, and I heard there was a movie to watch in the evening, and all the fatigue in my body was gone.
After dinner, Fan Xiumei went to fry melon seeds, and Lin Xi also went back to the room to dress up.
Putting on the dress Shen Kang bought for her, she opened her two braids, revealing her smooth forehead, and braided them into a braid at the back.
I also found a piece of floral cloth with the same color as the skirt and tied it at the end of the braid. There were no unnecessary decorations, and the whole person looked fresh and clean.
When Shen Kang saw her coming out of the back room, his eyes darkened.
"Little sister, let's take Xiaofei to occupy the space first. You and your brother-in-law walk slowly, don't be in a hurry." Lin Jiancheng shouted towards the room, and then pulled Shen Xiaofei outside.
"Let's go find your fourth uncle. He has money and ask him to buy us a soda."
Shen Xiaofei immediately screamed happily and ran away behind his fifth uncle.
Fan Xiumei and Lin Youfa felt that it was too late to watch the movie, and they were surrounded by young people. They found it too noisy, so they stayed at home and did not join in the fun.
Lin Xi and Shen Kang went out. One was tall and straight, the other was slim and beautiful. It was hard not to make people look at them twice when they walked together.
"After picking and choosing, I found someone who is married and raising children. She has a foxy face. Gee, I would like to give him some benefits." Wang Cuihua curled her lips disdainfully.
Now that she saw Lin Xi, she wanted to pounce on her and scratch her fairy face.
Shen Kang wanted to speak, but Lin Xi stopped him: "Forget it, brother, it's not worth wasting your breath with this kind of person."
Zhao Yiyi, who was beside Wang Cuihua, looked at Lin Xi who had changed greatly. He stared straight at her, wishing he could hold her down and ravage her.
