The snow lasted from night to the next morning.
After getting up, Xiao Baoguo looked at the silver-clad appearance outside. He found a broom and began to sweep the snow in front of the door.
After the heavy snow, the air was much fresher and not as dry as before.
Xiao Baoguo cleaned up the snow in front of the door and went back to his room to tidy up.
The door was pushed open from the outside.
"Brother Baoguo, the snow has stopped. It will be the new year in a few days.”
Xiao Baoguo didn't expect He Yushui to still remember to buy clothes.
Just as he was about to find a reason to reject him, He Yushui walked up and grabbed his arm to walk out.
"Wait a minute, I haven't locked the door yet. Let go first. I'll go, okay?”
It was only when he agreed to go out shopping that the other party let go of his hand.
After locking the door, Xiao Baoguo turned to look at He Yushui. He seemed to have dressed up specially today.
The cotton-padded clothes on her body were new, and her long hair was tied into two braids. There was also a red headband tied to the braids.
Xiao Baoguo was stunned when he saw He Yushui standing in front of him with a smile. Then, he said,""Let's go."
In the alley, a group of children was surrounding an older child who was holding dozens of firecrackers in his hands.
The staff of the supply and marketing cooperative would dismantle the firecrackers and sell them when the new year was approaching.
It was mainly sold to children, unlike in the future, where children would set off firecrackers one by one.
When they encountered something that did not ring, they would pick it up and think of a way to set it off again.
The price of such firecrackers was not expensive. It could cost 100 lashes for 20 cents.
In this alley, if any child could take out dozens of firecrackers, they would immediately attract the envy of the surrounding children.
This was also one of the few places where children could compare.
He watched as the children in front of him lit the firecrackers with the oil rope in their hands. As the crisp sound of firecrackers rang out, the year was getting closer and closer.
The two people walking in front didn't notice.
A sneaky figure followed them out of the courtyard. After seeing the two of them leave, he immediately ran towards the middle court.
"Silly Uncle, I saw Xiao Baoguo leaving with Rainwater Aunt.”
"Awesome, Uncle Silly has a mission for you. Follow them and see where they go. Pay special attention to Xiao Baoguo and see if he has done anything to your Rainwater Aunt.”
Hearing what Silly Zhu said, the stick stretched out his hand in front of Silly Zhu and said,""Silly Uncle, if I help you, won't you give me some benefits?”
"What does a child need money for?"
"It's almost the new year, so I'm going to buy some cannons. Many students in our school have bought them.”
Silly Zhu took out fifty cents from his pocket and handed it to the other party. He couldn't let his child be looked down upon. Since others had already bought it, he had to buy it too.
Silly Zhu was really good to him. Even if he often came to steal his things, he didn't care. He even treated him like his own son.
He snatched the money from Shazhu's hand and ran outside.
"Don't forget the task I gave you.”
Looking at the stick that had already run out, Silly Zhu muttered to himself,""This child, don't panic. Don't let anyone find out.”
After saying that, Silly Zhu turned his head to look in the direction of the backyard, then stood up and walked out of the house.
"Oh, Lou Xiao'e, are you feeding the chickens?”
Lou Xiao'e looked at Shazhu who walked into the backyard and ignored him. She continued to scatter the millet on the ground.
Silly Zhu didn't care about the other party's attitude. After all, he and Xu Damao had been fighting for so many years. It was inevitable that Lou Xiao'e would be involved in their bickering.
Seeing that the other party had his back to him, Silly Zhu took out a handful of melon seeds from his pocket and said,""Your Xu Damao has been out for a few days. Why hasn't he come back yet? Don't tell me he has a lover outside?”
"Silly Zhu, what nonsense are you talking about, you are really a bastard.”
"Yes, yes, yes. I'm a bastard, but no matter how stupid I am, I can't be as stupid as your Xu Damao. Let me tell you, some time ago, Xu Damao was watched by people in the factory.”
Seeing that Lou Xiao'e's hands had stopped, Shazhu continued,""Also, I heard that your Xu Damao had a good chat with many young wives in the factory.”
"Bullsh * t! Our Da Mao is not the kind of person you say he is!”
"Don't doubt me. Why don't you ask First Master and Second Master? If you don't believe me, you can ask Xiao Baoguo.”
"Of course I have to ask. Not only will I ask, when our Da Mao comes back tomorrow, I will tell him everything you said today.”
Lou Xiao'e poured the millet in her hand onto the ground, then turned around and returned to the house.
"You must tell him and Xu Damao that I'll be waiting for him.”
Shazhu shouted loudly into the house, then turned his eyes and walked out of the courtyard house.
When Shazhu walked out of the alley, he saw a man who was about his age standing at the entrance of the alley.
This person and Shazhu were classmates. After graduation, he entered a medicine shop as an apprentice.
This time, he came because Silly Zhu had asked him for a favor some time ago.
"Liu 'er, have you been waiting for a long time?"
When he heard someone calling him, he turned around and saw that it was Silly Zhu. He immediately took his hand out of his sleeve.
He handed a white paper bag to Silly Pillar and said,""Just this once. When you use it, don't put too much. This thing is very strong. A little bit can make people sleep for several hours.”
"Don't worry, I know what I'm doing. This bro owes you a favor. I'll treat you to a drink some other day.”
After sending the other party off, Silly Pillar looked at the paper bag in his hand and sneered,""Grandson, I told you to seduce my sister. This time, I'll teach you a lesson.”
After carefully keeping the paper bag, Silly Zhu strolled towards the courtyard house.
On Xiao Baoguo's side, he was walking toward the bus stop.
He Yushui pulled him from behind, refusing to take the bus no matter what. She insisted on admiring the snowy scenery.
Looking at the mottled buildings and the bare trees, Xiao Baoguo really couldn't appreciate them.
The two of them were in a stalemate for a while. Seeing that the other party insisted on walking, Xiao Baoguo could only nod and agree.
Along the way, it was He Yushui who spoke, and Xiao Baoguo responded from time to time.
When the two of them arrived at the department store, He Yushu's mouth was dry from talking.
He glanced at Blockhead beside him and glared at him angrily before walking straight into the department store.
Because it was close to the end of the year, the department store was much livelier than before.
Looking at the dazzling array of goods, He Yushui felt that her eyes were a little busy.
Seeing Xiao Baoguo walking slowly behind him, he hurriedly went forward and dragged him to the counter where the clothes were sold.
"Hello, please pull some cotton cloth according to his figure.”
He Yushui said to the salesperson and pulled Xiao Baoguo to her side.
After the salesperson took the measurements, she wrote down the fabric size that she needed. Then, she clamped it on the shelf above her head and slid it along the rope to the counter at the side.
Xiao Baoguo and the others took the receipt from the salesperson and walked to the side, waiting for the staff to cut the cloth.
This was the bad thing about this era. Generally, clothes were made from cloth. There were very few ready-made clothes for sale. Even if there were, the price was not cheap.
And the supply of cloth tickets was very small. Generally, families would save for two years to make a new piece of clothing, and then change the size of the old clothes for the children to wear.
Not long after, the staff handed the cloth to Xiao Baoguo.
Since everyone's clothes were made at home, there were no fancy styles.
The fabric was the most common cotton cloth. Men's shirts were usually black.
The pants on his lower body were dark blue. There was no other reason than that they were resistant to dirt.
The style was made according to the style of the people's clothing.
Xiao Baoguo looked at the cloth in his hand and looked at He Yushui, not knowing what to do.
Seeing his expression, He Yushui immediately smiled and said,""Don't worry. I'll do it for you while there are still a few days.”
Hearing this, Xiao Baoguo was relieved. He didn't know how to make clothes.
The two of them hugged the fabric and walked around the department store again. During this time, they even bought a pair of cotton shoes.
For Xiao Baoguo, these things didn't cost much. Since he wanted to buy them, he would definitely replace them from head to toe.
"Please support us.""Votes."
