Chapter 10 Sick

 "Let you say it! Let you say it!" Old Mrs. Lin was so angry that she punched Old Man Lin on the back several times. "I didn't mean to kill my second daughter-in-law. When the beam fell down, I was also frightened.

I just brought the second daughter-in-law over...doesn't it show that you have a long mouth?"

Old Man Lin also knew that he had made a mistake, and even after being beaten so hard that he screamed in pain, he did not dare to talk back.

Suddenly there was a bang in the yard, as if someone had knocked something down. Mrs. Lin was startled and asked sharply: "Who is outside?"

Old man Lin got out of bed quickly, without even bothering to put on his shoes, and rushed out.

With a 'squeak' sound, when Old Man Lin rushed out, he happened to see his eldest daughter-in-law pushing the door and coming out of the wing where she lived. He was startled when he saw Old Man Lin push the door open, "Dad... you... why are you out here?"

?"

Old man Lin asked: "Who was in the yard just now?"

The aunt shook her head, "No... no one."

Her tone sounded like she was feeling guilty.

Old man Lin stared at her face for a while, but he couldn't see anything in the dark. He searched around the yard again and found no suspicious person, so he closed the door and went back to the house.

The aunt cursed in a low voice: "I'm sick!"

After scolding, the aunt turned back to Uncle Lin behind her and said: "Go back quickly and let my parents know that thorn balls can be used as food, so they don't have to worry about not having enough food."

Uncle Lin was reluctant, "What time has it been and you're still letting me drive in the dark, aren't you afraid that I'll miss the mark and end up in a ditch?"

"We can't delay this matter. We have to go up the mountain tomorrow. It will take several days until the village has picked all the thorn balls in the back mountain. When the news reaches my parents' house, how many can my parents pick? Okay, let's go to the butcher on the way back.

When I get home, I cut two kilograms of meat on the way, and I’ll buy a piece of tofu. I’ll give you some roast meat for your father to eat in the evening.”

After saying that, he stuffed a small bunch of money into Uncle Lin's hand. When Uncle Lin saw that he was allowed to buy meat, his laziness was gone.

The aunt took the opportunity to push him out of the courtyard gate, and stuffed him with a torch and a fire stick, "There are so many people in the village, and it's hard to predict who will stay out at night without sleeping. We can light them after we leave the village."

"Hey, don't worry, I'm fast on my feet and I'll be back before going up the mountain."

Uncle Lin jogged all the way and soon disappeared into the night.

The aunt closed the courtyard door, turned around and was about to go back to the house, when she saw a short black figure rushing into her house, which startled her.

Thinking that it was her son Goudan who had just gotten up to go to the toilet, she patted her chest and cursed: "You bastard, you scared me to death!"

His eyes fell on the main room and he curled his lips. The old man was so nervous that he didn't know what the boy had just overheard outside his grandma's window.

Lin Xiaoman and Lin Erhu were in a self-service supermarket at this time. They walked around the supermarket and saw products within easy reach everywhere, but no one was selling them.

It wasn't until they saw people queuing up to check out at the exit that the siblings realized that they put the picked items in the car and then queue up to pay.

So, the siblings started selecting products without any scruples.

When passing by the promotion area, an aunt gave Lin Xiaoman a large pack of toilet paper, "Little sister, this paper is soft and doesn't hurt when wiping your butt. You can also use it when you have your period."

Lin Xiaoman didn't know what menstruation meant, and looked confused. Her aunt pulled her aside and whispered to her for a while, which made the tips of Lin Xiaoman's ears turn red.

It turns out that what the aunt was talking about during menstruation was a woman's guishui. Although she hadn't had it yet, her mother had taught her that women in the village would sew long bags with cloth and put plant ash in them. They would throw away the plant ash after each use.

, then wash the cloth bag with water and put it in the house to dry, and save it for next time.

The women here are so happy, they can buy all these things.

Thinking that there was not even toilet paper at home these days, and had to use big leaves every time, Lin Xiaoman put four large packs of toilet paper in the car without saying a word, and bought several large packs of sanitary napkins for day and night use under the introduction of her aunt.

Be prepared.

Lin Xiaoman remembered that Grandma Liu said yesterday that her face looked young because she always applied nourishing cream, and asked her aunt where she could buy nourishing cream.

The aunt enthusiastically took her to the counter selling nourishing cream, and asked the shopping guide at the counter to help her choose two types suitable for little girls and two types for children. She also applied it to Lin Xiaoman's hand to try.<

/p>

You don't have to get too close to smell the fragrance. The price is not expensive. They cost more than ten yuan for a small box. You can feel your hands moisturized immediately after applying it. I recommend buying a box of each.

.

The shopping guide saw Lin Xiaoman enjoying the purchase and saw her rough little hands. It looked like she was used to farm work, and recommended to her, "Little girl, this Vaseline paste is most suitable for people who work regularly. Rub it on your hands."

You don’t have to worry about getting chapped hands when you work last winter.”

Lin Xiaoman looked at his hands, which were rough from farm work over the past year, and bought two large boxes without saying a word.

Then we came to the area that sells dry seasoning sauces. The hot pot base here is on sale for 29.9 for a large bag. The flavors include spicy, tomato, and mushroom. There are three pots in front of the promoter, with different ingredients in each pot.

A flavorful soup base with some hot pot ingredients skewered on bamboo skewers cooked in it.

Although the siblings don't know what the hot pot base is, the vegetables and meatballs cooked in it are so delicious.

Especially the spicy flavor. Although your tongue hurts after eating it, you will want to take two bites after one bite.

The siblings bought a bag of one flavor and planned to cook and eat it themselves when they got home. The promoter introduced them to the hot pot area and bought a few ingredients for hot pot.

I’ve never seen instant noodles before, buy them!

The canned seafood and fruit meat looks delicious, buy it!

Various packages of sausages and hams, buy them!

Soy sauce, cooking wine and soybean paste, buy it!

……

They were shopping all the way, and when the news came on the radio that the store was about to close, the two shopping carts pushed by the siblings were both full.

I quickly ran to the exit to check out. At this time, there were not many customers waiting to check out. Although there was no need to queue up, it took more than ten minutes for the two cars of the siblings to check out.

After coming out of the supermarket, carrying seven large bags, the siblings ran all the way back home.

At this time, the house was completely dark, and he couldn't see his fingers. Lin Xiaoman took out the outdoor lighting lamp he bought in the supermarket and gently pushed the switch. The whole room was immediately illuminated, which was much brighter than an oil lamp.

Lin Erhu cried out twice, "Sister, this is really magical. It says that if you expose yourself to the sun more during the day, it will keep the light on. In the future, our family will build a new house, and the courtyard walls will be built high, and everything in the house will be replaced."

into this kind of lamp."

Lin Xiaoman silently put the sanitary napkins he bought into the cabinet, turned around and said, "Okay, put one in the corner. From now on, you can only order this when you study, so you don't have to worry about getting short-sighted like Master Lu."

Since he had not had a bite of rice since coming down the mountain, Lin Xiaoman decided to have a good meal of hot pot.

Although they only tasted a few bites in the supermarket, the taste was so amazing that the siblings would never forget it. For this reason, they even bought Yuanyang Hot Pot for hot pot in the supermarket.

I brought the tile stove that I kept in the house for heating in winter, boiled water in the pot, and put the spicy butter base on one side and the tomato hot pot base on the other.

Before it was cooked, I could smell the rich aroma with a pungent taste.
