Chapter 130 Going to the county seat
After eating, she started to work. Her father brought back several bottles of saline solution from the hospital.
Her father, brother and aunt poured the prepared ointment into it.
An Xueyan was watching from the side, and they didn't let her work.
"Dad, will this bottle break?" It's obviously made of glass. Wouldn't there be any problems with the current transportation conditions?
As An Qingping was assembling the equipment, he explained to his daughter, "We'll need to protect the outside of it. It won't break, so don't worry."
An Xueyan, the eldest daughter who had never done packing work, chose to believe her father. If her father said it was okay, then it was okay.
The next morning, the father, son, and daughter rode their bicycles to the county town.
Her father didn't go to work today, so he took them to his godparents' house for dinner. They came once after school and haven't been there since.
The bicycle was full of things, and her brother also carried a backpack on the back. Some of the things were to be sent to Uncle Gu, and some were to be taken to her godfather and others.
On the way, they met some educated youth who were also going to the city in ox carts. Yuan Mengyao greeted them warmly while sitting on the ox cart.
"Yanyan, Shitou, and Comrade An, you should also go to the city."
An Qingping just nodded lightly without saying anything.
An Xueyan, who was sitting in the front, could only answer: "Yes, Yuan Zhiqing, are you going to the city to buy things too?"
"Yes, to buy some groceries."
An Xueyan felt that there was nothing much to talk about with her, so she said, "Then you guys take your time, we'll be leaving first."
When I heard my daughter say that we should go to Anqingping first, I quickened my pace.
"Okay, wait~~~" Before Yuan Mengyao finished her words, she saw the bicycle riding away.
"Tsk, some people try to curry favor with others every day, but they ignore you. I don't know what they're trying to do. Could it be that you've taken a fancy to someone else's father and want to be someone else's stepmother? After all, their conditions are very attractive." Dong Xue looked at him coldly and mocked him.
"Some people are dirty themselves and think everyone else is dirty." Yuan Mengyao is not a pushover and directly retorted.
Seeing that the two were about to clash, Li Xiaoying stepped out to smooth things over, saying, "Come on, everyone, please be quiet. The little girl from the An family saved Mengyao's life, so it's normal for her to be nice to her. Dong Xue, please don't say anything nonsense. Mengyao, I won't argue with Dong Xue either. She just has that temper and doesn't have any bad intentions."
Yuan Mengyao turned her head away and ignored Dong Xue. Zhao Yizhou gave Dong Xue a bad look.
Turning to his beloved, he said gently, "Mengyao, I heard that the state-owned restaurant has a new dish. How about we go try it later?"
Yuan Mengyao was very patient about the fish she raised and replied, "Okay, I'll go after I buy something."
She also did not forget to invite others: "Sister Xiaoying, Zhang Zhiqing, would you like to go with us later?"
Li Qian didn't have a good relationship with them now, so she didn't call them.
Zhang Jun, on behalf of several male educated youth, replied, "We're going too. We haven't tasted meat in a long time."
Li Xiaoying shook her head and refused: "I won't go. I have something to do later."
No one else said anything about this. Everyone's family conditions are different, and not everyone can afford to have a meal in a state-owned restaurant.
An Xueyan and her group, who left first, went directly to the post office and had the items they wanted to send checked by the post office staff to make sure there were no prohibited or dangerous items before sending them.
Seeing that they were sending meat, the staff looked at An Qingping a few more times, but An Qingping's tall stature and cold aura made people dare not say anything.
After the inspection, An Qingping began to pack. He took out the old cotton jacket he no longer wore, wrapped the ointment in the middle, and placed the things in the middle of the bag containing dried mushrooms, with the mushrooms stuffed around it.
He protected the ointment carefully, packed the things to be sent, filled in the address and gave them to the staff. He asked if there were the latest stamps. After being told that there were none, An Qingping took a photo of the telegram with the words "sent", paid the money and left with the brother and sister.
They carried their things directly to the police family compound, and now they are familiar faces here.
The children playing outside the family compound saw the brother and sister and said enthusiastically, "Shi Tou, Yan Yan, you came to the city to look for Xie Pingan and the others. They should be at home. Let's play together later."
"Okay, I'll come down later." An Honglei agreed with a smile.
While greeting people he knew, he walked towards Xie's house.
Seeing them bringing so many things to the door again, Zhu Kanghui said to her father: "Why are you carrying so many things? Didn't I tell you not to go shopping?"
An Qingping explained: "Sister-in-law, these are all things from home. I didn't spend any money on them. I brought them here for you to eat."
"Hey, why are there so many pieces of meat? Didn't I tell you to stay away from the mountains? They're so dangerous."
When he saw the meat, he lectured the brother and sister.
An Honglei felt warm in his heart at his godmother's genuine concern, and said, "We didn't go to the mountains to get these. Zhanzhan caught them a while ago. It's just that he's been a little lazy lately, otherwise he could have brought some fresh ones for you, godmother."
Zhu Kanghui felt relieved when he said that, and said with a smile: "It's good that you didn't go to the mountain. Go inside and play with your brothers first."
Xie Pingan, who had been waiting on the side, urged: "Come in and take a look at my new tank model."
"Sister-in-law, where is Brother Xie?" An Qingping asked when he saw that there was no one in the room.
"I asked him to go buy some braised dishes. He should be back soon. Please sit for a while."
"Sister-in-law, you go ahead and do your work. I'll go downstairs to get a cigarette." After saying that, An Qingping walked downstairs.
Zhu Kanghui didn't care about him. That's how it was for those of them who came out of the army. They would never stay alone with their comrades' families for fear of bad influence. She had long been used to it.
In the room of the two brothers of the Xie family, there was a tank model assembled from bullet shells on the desk. The three boys loved it very much. Xie Guilai was proudly telling the brother and sister how they collected the bullet shells and how they assembled them.
An Xueyan had no interest in this, but her brother's eyes lit up and he listened very attentively.
Sure enough, these weapons have a fatal attraction to boys.
After looking at the tank model, the four of them said goodbye to their godmother who was busy in the kitchen and went downstairs to play.
When I went downstairs, I saw their father smoking with his godfather.
After saying hello to their godfather, they went out to play. Xie Ping'an unlocked their bicycle, and her brother also rode his bicycle out of the family compound. The four of them then rode out on two bicycles.
An Xueyan was sitting in the back seat of her brother's car, and some children from the family compound saw them.
I asked, "Xie Ping'an, where are you going to play?"
"Going to the department store~" Xie Pingan, who had ridden away, replied loudly.
The Public Security Bureau’s staff quarters are only a 10-minute bike ride away from the department store. I got off the bike at the department store and prepared to go in.
"You stupid kid, you secretly rode the bicycle out of the house. I think you deserve a beating."
An Honglei and his sister were both confused. They were one step behind Xie Pingan and his brother, and when they stopped the car to lock their bicycles, the middle-aged woman rushed out.
