Great Power Army Reclamation

Chapter 346 Plum Blossom’s New Life

When Meihua got off the bus in Tangcheng, it was already dark. Based on her previous experiences, she would definitely not have been able to complete this journey with her three children. Fortunately, Lao Wu helped her buy a sleeper berth, letting her know for the first time that she could still sleep on the train.

This land was the place where she was born and raised, giving her an innate sense of intimacy. But at the same time, there is also a deep alienation. Twenty years later, with the death of parents and the growth of children, my hometown has actually become a foreign land.

Meihua took a deep breath, and there was a smell of dust in the air. It's far from as clear as the northern Xinjiang, but so what? Fallen leaves must eventually return to their roots.

I hired a three-wheeler and returned home. By this time, my uncle had gotten married. After the door was opened, he looked at the eldest sister and his family in bewilderment until his wife asked him who this was. Only then did he come to his senses and quickly let the eldest sister into the house.

Knowing the purpose of the eldest sister's visit, the daughter-in-law looked a little unhappy. She was afraid that her eldest sister was coming to rob her house, because she knew before the marriage that her nephew had spent money to build this house.

The old uncle didn't think so much. Blood is thicker than water. He asked the elder sister with concern what her future plans were.

Mei Hua sighed: "Buy a house first. Get the children settled, and then I'll go to work in the team."

The old uncle and daughter-in-law looked unhappy again: "Sister, do you think this place is still the same as before? You can go to work if you say you want to, but now the land has been divided. Several families form a group. You just came back and haven't registered your household registration yet. How can you be there? The land?"

Mei Hua was a little confused, she didn't know these things at all. Relatively speaking, life in northern Xinjiang is simple and closed. The Corps is like a big tree, covering many unexpected things.

The old uncle looked at his watch, then turned to his wife and said: "Take out the quilt and arrange for the eldest sister and the others to stay here first. Then he will go to the second sister tomorrow. Let's discuss what to do."

The old man finally reluctantly took out the new bedding that he was reluctant to use, helped Meihua and the others lay it out, then fetched water for the whole family to wash up, and finally returned to his house. "Don't ask them to live here forever!" When she said this, the old lady specially amplified her voice just to let the eldest sister next door hear her.

The muscles on the old uncle's face twitched, but he didn't dare to speak. His character was a bit cowardly, and his parents had spoiled him since he was a child. Without his second sister, he had to arrange everything for him. After his second sister got sick, he still used to go to his second sister if anything happened.

Mei Hua had already heard what her younger sister-in-law said in the room, with a self-deprecating smile on her face. Is this the home that I long for? It seems that without my parents, there is no home anywhere.

Early the next morning, the old uncle took the eldest sister and his family to the second sister's house. At this time, the second brother-in-law had not yet gone to work. Mei Duo saw her eldest sister naturally getting close to her, and the two sisters hugged each other and started crying.

Because of Ye Yuze, the second uncle was very happy for the arrival of his eldest sister and his family. I was busy getting some snacks hidden at home for my nephews. The second aunt no longer goes to work at this time. Now her language function has become somewhat impaired and she can no longer speak so fluently.

When Mei Hua announced her plan to come back this time, Mei Duo said without hesitation: "It's good to come back. Northern Xinjiang is too isolated and not suitable for children's development. I will help you register for residence later. The house matter is good." Do it, your brother-in-law has already allocated a building, we will move right away, you can just live here!"

Meihua quickly declined. "I'll just go out and buy a house. Even if I live here, I still have to pay you."

Mei Duo looked angry: "Sister, are you unfamiliar with us? We are going to live in a building. How much can this kind of simple house be sold for? How much do we want from you? You have several children by yourself, where will you spend the money in the future? There are still more!”

Meihua stopped arguing with her sister, then left the child at home and went to the commune with her sister to register. With Mei Duo following, these people were familiar with each other, and everything was settled soon. But Mei Duo is also a little worried. The land has been divided, and her sister must not be there. I wonder when the next land division will be? How can my sister survive with several children?

Mei Hua saw her sister's worry and smiled: "Don't worry about this. My sister has endured all kinds of hardships in northern Xinjiang for twenty years. Can she still starve the children? When I settle down, I will call Ye Yuze back. There is a If the older kids help me, there will be no problem."

When Ye Yuze was mentioned, Mei Hua suddenly felt confident. If this child is here, there seems to be no difficulty. The second aunt felt a little guilty on her face. She looked at the eldest sister and muttered: "Sister, it's all my fault that my child went to the countryside to suffer."

The two sisters both bypassed the eldest brother at the same time. Although they complained a little, they were still siblings after all. They just didn't talk about him. After all, every family is not the same person.

Originally, Mei Duo wanted to wait until her husband was resting before moving, but now that the eldest sister and her family are back, she would strike while the iron is hot. At that time, the houses did not need to be decorated. They had cement floors and white walls, and they were relatively tall houses.

Second Aunt and the others didn't ask for any furniture, they all bought new ones. There was no need to arrange anything in this house, Meihua's family just moved in. Then there is the school for the second and third children, and the kindergarten for the fourth child. When everything was arranged, half a month passed.

Mei Hua has been wandering around a lot these days, thinking about a way out for herself. There is no hope for the team. I can only find something to do by myself. My husband's salary is obviously not enough for this family. She didn't have time to waste it like this.

By this time she had discovered a place where she could do something. There is a place called Triangle on the Outer Ring Road, where all vehicles entering and leaving Tangcheng in the south of Tangcheng must pass. There is a large open space where drivers like to take a break.

Although Tangcheng is not as big as Beijing, it has a lot of vehicles. Vehicles hauling coal and cement line up every day. The income of these drivers is higher than that of ordinary workers, so Meihua decided to set up a stall here.

In April, the weather in Tangcheng has started to get hot. Meihua bought a three-wheeler for 200 yuan. There was a large white wooden box on top, with a thick layer of foam board pasted inside, and half a box of popsicles inside. Then I loaded a few boxes of soda into the back of the carriage, found an open space, and started business.

There were only two types of popsicles at that time, red fruit and cream. Purchase one cent of red fruits and two cents of butter, and sell them for three cents and five cents respectively.

Cars at that time did not have air conditioning, and drivers were basically no different from being in a steamer in summer. When I see cold drinks, I naturally get out of the car and eat and drink. Meihua specially bought a large piece of ice and put the soda on it. In fact, the original iced soda was all in this model.
