"Xue Nong, are you going out?" The person who came was the captain.

The second uncle nodded hurriedly.

"Hey, why are you here? Have you eaten? Can I bring you a bowl of rice?" Grandpa greeted hurriedly.

"Have eaten, Xuenong, did you take the shuttle bus back today?" The captain took a breath and continued to ask.

"Yes, Uncle Captain, why do you ask this?"

"Someone just called and said that the villagers from our brigade left a large item on the shuttle bus. I thought, since you are the only ones who have entered the city in the past two days, I came to ask."

So that's it, the second uncle asked hurriedly, "I left it behind, the old engine, the big iron lump."

"Yes, yes, that's it. The shuttle bus driver said that they will leave your things for you. The shuttle bus will run in the opposite direction tomorrow and return to the county. You go to the roadside and wait. When they see you, they will stop and unload the goods."

The second uncle immediately breathed a sigh of relief and said, "That's great. He is such a conscientious and responsible comrade."

"I'll ask Xuewen to write a letter of thanks later and send it to their unit."

"Okay, for good comrades like this, we have to find ways to help them become famous."

Grandpa chatted with the captain.

The second uncle's heart disease was cured and his mood improved significantly.

Grandma waved and called him and Yuanni into the room, "Xue Nong, how much did it cost to go back to the county?"

The Chen family is a big family, and all the work points and grain collected every year go to the family. Everyone eats in the same pot, and grandma keeps the remaining money, and takes it out to help whoever has something to do.

For example, when my fifth uncle Chen Xuewen got married, he spent this amount of money.

This time my uncle went to the city to recruit workers, and grandma got him 15 yuan.

The second uncle scratched his head and began to calculate the accounts, "...the money for staying in the guest house and eating at Lao Bai's water basin were all paid for by Yuanni. These two items are big expenses."

After excluding these two expenses, there was still a lot left over from the ten yuan given by grandma. The second uncle handed over all the money, "The eldest brother kept four yuan, saying it was for meal tickets, and there was still five or six yuan left."

"Okay, you go out."

After sending the second uncle away, grandma opened the box and took out the money. She wanted to give Yuanni the accommodation and meal money, "You can just go with me, I can't let you advance the money."

Yuanni doesn't care about the money, she doesn't want it.

But grandma would give me whatever she said, "This is a rule, and you can't mess with the rules."

Yuan Ni thought about it, and it was the same reason. Today, she gave money in advance when her uncle was doing something. Next time Chen Xuewen was doing something, would she give it to him?

"Grandma, I bought you a pair of autumn trousers. You can wear them when the weather gets cold." Grandma was so considerate, and Yuanni quickly took out the things she bought for the old man.

She bought her grandma and grandpa each a pair of long johns and a pair of thick nylon socks.

People in the village are not particular about it. They only wear a single pair of trousers when the weather is hot and large cotton trousers when the weather is cold. They just wear them with bare legs, blowing away the wind.

Grandma was surprised and happy, "Oh, Ni'er is still good, and she is still thinking about buying something for grandma. These autumn pants are good, soft and close to the body."

The wealth was not in vain. After grandpa saw off the captain, grandma took out the long johns and said, "Old man, try it. Don't you have cold legs? Wear this when the weather gets cold. It will definitely be comfortable."

Grandpa couldn't put it down and touched his long johns, "Ni'er is still sensible. Look at that silly boy Xuenong. He went out and didn't buy anything."

"If he really bought it, you would still have to say that he spent money recklessly."

In short, whatever the sons do is wrong, it is better to do less and make fewer mistakes to avoid being beaten.

In addition to grandma and grandpa, Yuanni also brought things to others.

The eldest of the uncle's two sons is 17 years old and a head taller than Yuanni.

The second uncle also has two sons, one is the same age as Yuanni, sixteen this year, and the other is younger.

The fourth uncle has two sons. The two children are younger, one is seven years old, and the other is five years old, which is exactly the age of Pihou.

After leaving the main room, Yuan Ni called her cousins ​​together, then opened her cloth bag and said, "Grab it yourself, each one a handful."

"What's the matter?"

"Sugar, sister Nier bought a lot of sugar."

The cloth pocket is full of fruit-flavored candies, such as pineapple, peach, and apple, all of which are attractive and sweet.

"Oh my god, can you grab a handful?" The fourth aunt's two sons were all drooling.

"Your hands are too small, let your cousin help you catch it." Yuan Ni was afraid that the child would suffer, so she specifically asked her cousin, who was the biggest and had the biggest hands and feet, to catch it.

The cousin looked at his hand, rubbed it carefully on his buttocks, and then stretched out his hand, "Did I really catch it?"

"Catch it."

The cousin happily extended his hand. Although he is 17 years old, he still likes to eat sweets.

He grabbed a big handful, almost weighing a pound.

The other cousins ​​looked at their hands and saw that they had not been rubbed on their buttocks or fired. They might as well entrust the eldest cousin to catch them for them.

Yuan Ni watched with a smile. When she went to Lao Yuan's house to cause trouble, her first cousin and second cousin also went with her.

It was them who peed on Zhang Chunyu's mattress.

After the cousin finished catching them, what was left in his pocket was for Zhaodi and Pandi.

The two little girls couldn't believe their eyes, "We have one too?"

In the past, when I was at Lao Yuan's house, all the candies and eggs were given to Zhang Chunyu's children, not the three sisters.

"Your sister, I bought it. If anyone else's is missing, yours cannot be missing..."

As soon as Yuan Ni finished speaking, she heard someone crying in the yard, "Give me back the candy. Sister Ni'er bought it for me."

When I went out, I saw that it was my second uncle's youngest son, Mao Dan, who was crying.

"What happened? Cat egg?"

"Sister Ni'er, my mother took away all my candies, wuwuwu..."

Zhao Fuhua reached out and pinched Mao Dan's face, "Eat, eat, eat, you know how to eat. Is that how you eat candy? Can it be used as food?"

Yuan Ni had a stern look on her face, "I gave the candy to the cat eggs. If you have any objections, tell me. Don't break the cat eggs."

"It's nothing to beat, I just twist it twice. Hey, Mao Dan is my son. Is it wrong for me to help him collect his things?" Zhao Fuhua's voice also became louder.

"Don't think I don't know you. You are the most greedy. Give the candy to the cat. Don't end up in your stomach." Grandma heard the commotion and stood up to seek justice.

Being exposed in public, Zhao Fuhua blushed, "Mom, what are you talking about?"

In the end, she gave the candy to Mao Dan.

The next day, my second uncle got up early and went to the roadside to wait.

It was almost noon when he finally got to the shuttle bus and carried the old engine back.

The Chen family, holding their rice bowls, all came to see and wonder, how could such a tough guy transform a four-wheeled vehicle?

"Don't worry, when I bought the engine, I was told how it was modified." Yuanni took all the credit.

With the engine, everything else was easy to handle. Yuanni quickly saved up enough materials to build the car and assembled the car.

This car looks ordinary, no different from the human-powered four-wheelers on the street.

There is an additional engine next to the pedals. The engine is connected to the transmission device and can drive the wheel.

The car is dual-purpose. If it runs out of gas, you can still pedal away.

Seeing the test drive, Yuan Ni discovered a serious problem. She already had the car, but where could she go to refuel?

In this day and age, gasoline is not something that ordinary people can get their hands on.

Grandpa smoked his cigarette pot and gave Yuanni an idea, "Our brigade has a tractor, and the oil is added there. Go to the captain's uncle's house and ask if he can give you some evenly."
