Chapter 106 Report to the unit
Aunt Niu sighed when she heard this, "Of course, it's May Day, and it's only a few days away. The three turns and one ring promised to the girl's family haven't been collected yet, and my sister is so anxious all day long."
Zhou Laiying's eyes lit up when she heard this: Erya said that there are tickets every month, and there is no rush for several children at home, so she can just sell the tickets that Hua Rendong sent, and then give the money to Erhua. When the family needs money in the future, she can let Erhua get it.
"Then tell me what tickets you need. I'll see if I have any. If I do, I'll give them to you first."
"Where did you get them?" Aunt Niu stared at Zhou Laiying suspiciously. They all worked in the same factory, and there were only a few tickets in the factory every month, and they were given to a certain number of people. How come she didn't know when Zhou Laiying got the tickets?
Zhou Laiying glared at her, "What are you looking at? Jianshe and I don't have that ability, but Erhua has gone to work in the city now, so why doesn't her company give her money?"
Aunt Niu immediately became attentive upon hearing this. She pulled Zhou Laiying to sit on a chair at home and put her hands on her shoulders. "Oh, I said Erhua looks like her father. She must be extraordinary. She has a bright future. Tell me what kind of tickets you have. I want to see if my nephew needs any."
"Okay, wait a moment, I'll go back and get it for you."
Zhou Laiying didn't bother to argue with her. She ran home and took out the tickets Hua Rendong had given her yesterday. After thinking about it, she put the TV, fan, cloth tickets, meat tickets and some industrial tickets back and only took the watch, radio, bicycle, and sewing ticket, which just made up the three turns and one ring.
When Aunt Niu saw the tickets Zhou Laiying brought, her eyes widened. "Any one is fine? Can you give them all to me?"
Zhou Laiying nodded, and Aunt Niu immediately rubbed her hands excitedly, "Then I'll take them all. How about I give them to you at the black market price?"
"What? So your nephew hasn't gotten the three turns and one ring he promised to that girl?"
"How can that be possible? I just need a bicycle ticket. I have a nephew in my hometown who also wants to get married. I just happen to have some money. I'll take it from you. Just tell me the price, is that okay?"
"Sure, of course I can't. Anyway, Erhua said that their company always has invoices. We have been friends for so many years, so we can afford to pay a few dollars. When your nephew gets married, I'll ask Erhua to help you find any invoices you need."
"Haha, now that you say that, how about not giving you the money?" Why did Aunt Niu not believe that they still had any sisterly feelings before? They just had a small quarrel every three days and a big quarrel every five days.
"This is not my ticket. It's Erhua's stuff. How can you, as her aunt, take it for free?"
"I feel embarrassed. Why should I feel embarrassed? Who wouldn't take advantage of something for free?"
"Do you still want it? If not, I'll go ask someone else!"
"No, I didn't say no..."
While arguing, the two old sisters exchanged the tickets and money.
The noodle dumpling soup we had for breakfast was made with the oil refined from the fat brought back by Honeysuckle. The oil residue was rolled in the soup and it tasted so delicious. It was Zhou Laiying's cooking skill. It also tasted better than before.
After dinner, Zhou Laiying gave the ticket money to Hua Rendong, then took Hua Jianshe out, went to the county department store, and came back at noon.
During lunch, Zhou Laiying was a little dazed, and Hua Dahua asked, "Mom, what are you thinking about?"
Zhou Laiying took a bite of the pancake, swallowed it, and then said, "Your father and I went to the department store this morning and saw a TV for sale. Wow, it's been on sale for more than half a year and no one has bought it. Do you think you can really watch movies at home if you buy it?"
Hua Dahua perked up when she heard that. "Mom, what do you want to buy? I saw it at a classmate's house. Her father is a county leader, and the county approved the TV. But there's no telling when the programs will be on, but it's really good."
Zhou Laiying shook her head. "No, if I really buy it, will there be any peace in our family? We won't even have a place to step at home."
Hua Dahua was a little disappointed, but she thought that Xiaohua was studying hard at the time and really couldn't buy a TV.
But… "Mom, can you get me some TV tickets? How about I save money now, and when I get married, you can get me a TV ticket and I'll buy it myself as a dowry from my family."
Zhou Laiying curled her lips, "What? Even though I have many daughters, how can I miss your dowry? If you want your mother to pay for it when the time comes, why do you need to pay for it yourself?"
Hua Dahua happily hugged Zhou Laiying's arm and acted coquettishly. Hua Xiaohua said enviously: "Mom, I want it too..."
"Go away, go away! How old are you and you're already thinking about a dowry? Get into high school first!"
Zhou Laiying's words boosted Hua Xiaohua's morale and made her more motivated to study.
After lunch, Honeysuckle will return to the city.
In addition to the transaction with her third brother at night, she also wanted to visit Hao Min's house. The tickets she brought back this time must have aroused suspicions from her aunt, so she would have to talk to Hao Min if she and her uncle went to the Women's Federation one day.
In addition to the work of a promoter, I'll see if I can get myself an identity as a purchasing agent, so that if I can get something for my uncle's family, they won't be afraid to use it.
When leaving, Zhou Laiying used a peach canning bottle to fill a bottle of brain-breaking pickles for Hua Jindong, "This is what Lao Niu and I dug up last Sunday on the mountain. You can take it back to eat. Vegetables are hard to buy at this time, so you have to order something salty or light for your meal."
Hua Honeysuckle thought about the many brains planted in her space and wanted to refuse it, but since it was Zhou Laiying's intention, she accepted it.
It was already two o'clock in the afternoon when I returned to the city. I rode my bike to the Women's Federation and happened to see Hao Min talking to someone at the door, and Hua Rendong was waiting beside her.
After sending the person away, Hao Min turned around and saw Hua Rendong. She was stunned for a moment before she recognized that this was the young comrade who was listed as a subordinate under her. It has been almost a month since she started working there, but she has never come to work once. It was such a waste of the desk she arranged for her. She was too ignorant.
Seeing that Hao Min looked unhappy, Hua Rendong stepped forward and held Hao Min's hands with both hands. "Sister Hao, I was busy recently and didn't come to visit you at work. Today I have some free time, so I wanted to come and see you."
With a professional smile on his face, he said, "Oh, you are free today, then come in and sit down. Don't wait for someone to come and ask about you later. No one in the company knows what you look like."
"That's right, wait a minute, I brought some things for my comrades, let me go get them."
After saying that, without waiting for Hao Min to be polite, Hua Rendong ran towards where the bicycles were parked. While no one was paying attention, she took out a large bag from the space, which was filled with tea leaves packed in iron boxes.
The tea leaves were grown in the space, and after they were picked, Xu Xixi asked someone to roast them.
The tin box was bought online. It is round and comes in pink, green and blue. There are different flowers printed on the lid. It looks extremely high-end and there is no information that may be exposed on it. It is very face-saving to give it to others as a gift.
