Chapter 31 Won the Chance

So after breakfast, Shi Guixiang planned to take her eldest granddaughter to the county town.

It was still a bit troublesome to transfer the ox cart from the commune, so their family was willing to give three eggs and let Li Dajun drive the ox cart to take them there.

Li Dajun's family has an ox cart, which is mainly used to transport things, and sometimes it also transports people when going to the commune or county town.

Just give him a little benefit, usually a handful of vegetables or something else, three eggs are considered a lot.

"Grandma, give him five. We also need him to send us back when we come back. We can't be stingy."

Shi Guixiang immediately praised: "Wanwan is indeed smart and generous."

Gu Bin couldn't help but roll his eyes. If he said that, his grandmother would probably say he was being taken advantage of.

As a result, my younger sister said that it became smart and generous;

As expected, in their family, boys are treated like grass, and girls are the treasures of their grandparents.

The main reason is that the round trip to the county town is not short, and the family members are worried about the two female comrades going out.

But Gu Zhiqiang and Qiao Yuemei both had to go to work, and after some calculations, Gu Bin won the opportunity to accompany them by playing rock-paper-scissors and using his fighting skills.

"You are able to go to the county because of your sister's help. When you come back, you can brag about it in the village." The old lady taught her grandson: "Look how good your sister is. Remember to treat her better in the future."

Gu Bin said: I just picked it up, you can do whatever you want with it.

In fact, the old lady was not afraid to go to the county town alone. When she was young, in order to earn extra money, she walked 20 kilometers alone to another commune to repair a dam.

Sometimes the female soldiers are more powerful than the men. Even if they are rushing back from the county at night, the old lady is not afraid.

But it won’t work this time. My eldest granddaughter is so pretty and attractive, there will definitely be shameless people along the way.

There was a boy following him. Although this grandson didn't seem to be of much use, at least Gu Bin was tall and strong and could scare people when he went out.

The ox cart had to go to the county town and pass through the commune, so it naturally could not carry only the three people of the Gu family.

It just so happened that some villagers who were going out to do some business met us and we took a ride together. Each of them was given some vegetables and a handful of green onions.

The old lady didn't want to be the one who made trouble, so before leaving home, she had secretly stuffed five eggs into the hands of Li Dajun.

Li Dajun refused for a long time, saying that it was too much and it was just a matter of convenience. However, the old lady was very firm in her attitude.

"This is what my granddaughter said. You've worked hard to come here and there. If you don't accept it, do you have any complaints about us Wanwan?"

Li Dajun accepted it with embarrassment, and his favorable impression of the generous granddaughter of the Gu family increased dramatically.

Apart from them, the others sitting on the ox cart were sent out on official business by the team leader, so they did not gather together to chat along the way.

When coming back from the provincial capital before, Gu Wan had changed trains in the county town and knew that this was just a small county town and could not be compared with big cities.

The entire county town has only two long streets that intersect in a cross shape. The county government, credit union, supply and marketing cooperative, and state-owned hotels and department stores are all located at the intersection.

It is considered the most central and prosperous place in the county. There is a central square next to it with a statue of a high-ranking official.

In the old Gu family, Shi Guixiang is considered to be the one who has seen the world more, because the family's financial power is in her hands.

In addition, when her daughter returned to her parents' home in the past two years, she also had to visit her in-laws, etc., so she is quite familiar with the county town and the commune.

The old lady told her grandchildren: "The management is stricter here. In fact, in the commune, people from nearby villages would set up stalls during festivals. There are markets every day during the New Year. After all, it is difficult to buy things in the supply and marketing cooperatives, and we ordinary people have to live too." What she said was very true. Many times, Gu Wan felt that her grandmother was a woman who knew how to live and was very smart.

So after only a few days of spending time together, her relationship with her grandmother is the best among the whole family, even surpassing that of her parents.

It is also possible that she is not the real original owner, so she does not have such a strong blood relationship with Qiao Yuemei and Gu Zhiqiang?
The ox cart also has a mission to perform in the county town, so Li Dajun’s trip will not be in vain.

So everyone got off the bus here, agreed on a time to leave, and then dispersed.

Shi Guixiang proudly told the two children: "Follow me closely, there are many people in the county town, don't get lost."

What a lovely old lady, Gu Wan took her arm and said coquettishly: "Grandma, of course, we will accompany you to the supply and marketing cooperative first."

She had secretly told her grandmother that she had not only meat tickets, but also some other tickets.

Moreover, she told the old man directly that the Qin family was not friendly to her before she went to the countryside.

She took these tickets directly from home, so it was not considered stealing, because as an outstanding educated youth, her going to the countryside could help Qin's father's performance at work.

Gu Wan said this to her because he understood her grandmother's lovely personality.

It was to find a suitable excuse to buy things at the supply and marketing cooperative. Besides, given the heroine's behavior and the Qin family's unreasonable preference for her.

Gu Wan felt that it was understandable for him to let them take the blame.

Of course, the supply and marketing cooperatives in the county town have more goods and more sufficient supply from the commune. For example, the meat processing factory slaughters pigs every day, and most of the goods are sent to the supply and marketing cooperatives.

Freshly slaughtered pork will be given priority to the supply and marketing cooperative, which will also have a special window for selling meat.

Maybe the three generations of grandparents and grandchildren were lucky. There were not many people queuing to buy meat today, and there was still meat when it was their turn.

Gu Wan directly took out the two kilograms of meat ticket with the most recent date, "Uncle, I want two kilograms of meat."

It’s not that she couldn’t come up with more, but something too eye-catching wasn’t appropriate at the moment, her grandmother had taught her that.

Two pounds of meat is enough. Add some potatoes or carrots and stew them together. It will be enough for the whole family.

When Gu Bin heard his grandmother and sister talking about buying meat, his mouth was already watering. He once again felt that it was the wisest decision for him to defeat his brothers and win the chance to protect them out.

My sister seems to be a good person and she is a generous person, if he throws a tantrum and wants to buy some gadgets.

I think you will agree, right?
At this moment, Gu Bin forgot that he had been muttering in his heart that his grandmother was too partial and treated his sister better than him.

Apart from the meat, they didn't buy anything else at the supply and marketing cooperative, such as sugar, cakes, biscuits, etc., which Gu Wan brought back.

She had already taken out half of it and shared it with her family. As for the milk powder, she had to find an opportunity to take it out in private and it was not suitable for her grandmother and cousin to see.

So Gu Wan suggested: "Let's go to the department store and take a look."

The main thing is that what she is wearing now are all the things left by Qin Shiman. To be honest, they are not bad. At least they are not like other girls in the village whose clothes are full of patches.

However, whenever Gu Wan thought about the fact that those were the clothes Qin Shiman had worn before and that she didn't want anymore, she felt uncomfortable.

It’s okay in hot weather, but in winter you will need to make thicker clothes, so it is very important to buy some cloth to bring back later.
