Wear the book and be reborn as a group favorite for 50 people

Soon after Chen Xi returned home, she asked her mother to contact Tang's mother and make an appointment for Tang Xin to go home. Tang Xin specially brought her own lipstick and shampoo as gifts. Tang Xin heard that Chen Xi's mother and sister liked the lipstick Tang Xin gave her very much.

When they arrived at Chen's house, Chen Xi's sister was also there. She had just given birth to a baby and was in the confinement period at Chen's house. Both Tang Xin and Chen Xi were very curious about the baby. They just looked at the baby for a long time. If they weren't afraid Delaying Sister Chen's rest, they really planned to just keep looking at the baby.

I gave the gifts I brought to Chen Xi's mother and sister. They were very happy and praised them. They even gave them a gift they had prepared early, a beautiful skirt. This gift was a bit expensive, and Tang Xin was really embarrassed to accept it.

"The pastries you asked Chen Xi to bring back last time were all delicious, and we accepted them without saying anything. So don't be polite this time." Sister Chen said.

"That's right, besides, the lipstick and shampoo you gave us this time are things you can't buy now even if you have money. Once you get used to them, you won't be used to using them before. They are not much more expensive than this dress. ?" Chen Xi's mother also advised.

"Yes, yes, I also have the same one, but the color is different. When we both wear it to school, we will be like sisters, hehe." Chen Xi put his arms around Tang Xin and shook her, asking her to accept it.

In the end, Tang Xin really couldn't refuse, so she accepted it generously. Anyway, the days are long, and at worst, she will give Chen Xi some more skin care products and shampoos made by herself.

"Thank you, auntie, thank you sister." Tang Xin thanked the two of them.

"That's right. Okay, you go and play. Let sister have a good rest. Auntie will prepare delicious food for you. At noon, Tang Xin will also try auntie's cooking." Chen Xi's mother said.

"Come on, I'll take you around my house." Before Tang Xin could answer, Chen Xi pulled Tang Xin out.

Chen Xi's home is in Dongcheng District, which is nearby the family area of ​​the Ministry of Foreign Affairs where Chen Xi's father works. Chen Xi's home is a two-story bungalow with no yard and only the road outside.

Chen Xi pulled Tang Xin to her bedroom. The two were in Chen Xi's bedroom. Chen Xi showed Tang Xin her various treasures.

Chen Xi's bedroom is on the second floor, next to her parents' bedroom. Her sister and brother live on the first floor. She also has a nanny at home, but Chen Xi quietly complained to Tang Xin that she thought her nanny's cooking was quite delicious. Yes, but after eating Sister Zheng’s meal, I felt that my nanny’s cooking was not good.

Therefore, her mother criticized her for not respecting other people's work, but she never dared to say it again.

"I didn't tell Aunt Liu, I just told my mother quietly, and my mother criticized me." Chen Xi was a little unhappy.

"Auntie is right. Now that someone is cooking for you and keeping you fed and clothed, you should be grateful. Do you know that in many places, when we are so old, we have to help the family with work and cooking? We Compared with them, I don't know how lucky I am, so cherish your current life." Tang Xin advised.

This child has had a good family environment since he was a child. He is favored by his parents. He has never suffered hardships and does not understand the outside world. It is inevitable that he is a little naive and ignorant of the world. Tang Xin was different from him. Although he had not experienced it himself, after all, he was at that age and had learned about some things of this era in his previous life, so he knew more.

Chen Xi was quite convinced by Tang Xin's words. She always felt that although Tang Xin was younger than her, she knew much more than she did. Tang Xin always had a convincing power about her. And for the same reason, Tang Xin talked better than her mother and others so that she could accept it.

"Oh, I understand. I will definitely not complain in the future. I will respect the fruits of other people's work." Chen Xi nodded obediently.

"Be good, this is a good boy." Tang Xin touched Chen Xi's head. This well-behaved child is so lovable.

"Okay, you treat me like a child, and you are my sister, you know?" Chen Xi also smiled and touched Tang Xin's head. Tang Xin hurriedly dodged, and the two of them started to quarrel.

Mother Chen was standing outside the door with a fruit plate in her hand. She heard the conversation between the two just now. She didn't mean to eavesdrop. It was just that they were talking about this topic at this time. It would not be good for her to go in rashly. She heard Tang Xin say something to Chen Xi Mother Chen was also very happy with her persuasion. Tang Xin was much more sensible than Chen Xi. With her by her side, Chen Xi could be more sensible and eat less.

They are both the treasures of the family, and I don’t know how the Tang family raised their children. Tang Xin is considerate and sensible, and her family Chen Xi makes them spoiled. Hey, maybe it is because the Tang family and his wife are both university professors, so they are very good at educating their children. set? It seems that from now on, Chen Xi really needs to be allowed to spend more time with Tang Xin and the Tang family.

Tang Xin and Chen Xi didn't know that because of their actions today, the two families would move around more frequently in the future. Especially after Chen's father came back, the fathers of the two families felt like old friends at first sight. From then on, Tang's father had another good friend. The parents and children are all good friends, and the relationship between the two families is even closer. This also provided a lot of help during that special period later.

Mother Chen knocked on the door, and the two playing children immediately separated. Chen Xi, pretending to be serious, asked at the door: "Who is it? Please come in."

Mother Chen opened the door and came in, pretending that she had just arrived, "I'll give you two some fruits. Don't just talk, but also take good care of Tang Xin."

"Thank you, Auntie." Tang Xin politely thanked Chen's mother.

"Yes, Tang Xin, look at my memory. Try these peaches. My uncle and the others sent them. They are delicious." Chen Xi quickly asked Tang Xin to have a taste.

"The last time I brought you nectarines, this one is Kubo peaches. Try it."

"Thank you. This peach looks appetizing. I'll give it a try." Tang Xin took the peach handed over by Chen Xi and took a bite. It was so sweet, the kind of sweetness of a naturally ripe peach, with a rich peach flavor.

Tang Xin suddenly wanted to make some peach preserves by herself. In her previous life, she had done it when she was idle and bored. This happened to be peaches, which were the most suitable for making peach preserves.

Tang Xin asked Chen Xi where he could buy more of these Kubo peaches. Chen Xi said that his uncle's family had them. Their entire village, which should be called the brigade now, had been growing peaches for many years, but now the land was collectively owned. Now, peaches are no longer allowed to be bought and sold privately, that is, members can give some to relatives and friends. As for how to sell her now, she really didn't know. She asked Tang Xin what he wanted to do.

Tang Xin said that she wanted to make some preserved peaches for the winter. Chen Xi was very interested and wanted to make some. She took Tang Xin to her mother excitedly and asked how to buy peaches.

After knowing the purpose of the two little girls' visit, Mother Chen thought for a moment and said, "Well, now you can go to the commune to buy peaches directly. I have some familiarity with them. How many peaches do you need? Do you need sugar to make preserved fruit?" ?What kind of sugar should I use?”

"I heard from my aunt that it takes about 7 or 8 kilograms of fruit to produce one kilogram of preserved fruit. I don't know exactly how much sugar is needed. I will have to ask my aunt after I go back to find out. Auntie, when I calculate how much sugar is needed, Can I tell you again?" Tang Xin thought to herself, the more the merrier, but I don't know how much Chen Xi's mother can help buy. I'll ask my father and mother when I get home.

"Okay, you go home and ask how much you need. Just ask your mother to tell your aunt." Mother Chen didn't think much about it. It's true that a child doesn't know how much is needed. Of course, she has to ask an adult.

"Well, Tang Xin, don't worry. Just tell my mother what kind of fruit you want and how much you want. Even if you want to buy something in the future and it's difficult to buy it, you can ask my mother. My mother will definitely help you buy it." Chen Xi He whispered to Tang Xin.

"You little bastard, you made such a random promise. What if mother can't keep it?" Mother Chen knocked her daughter on the head helplessly. This child really treated Tang Xin as an outsider and said anything.

"Tang Xin, what Chen Xi said makes sense. You should go home and tell your mother. If there are any urgent supplies that cannot be bought outside, just tell your aunt. Let her come and think about it. You can't say for sure. You can buy it now." Mother Chen told Tang Xin.

"Well, I understand, thank you, Auntie." Tang Xin nodded and said thank you. Now you only need coupons to buy food and industrial supplies. In the future, you will gradually start to use coupons to buy meat, eggs, milk, candies, and snacks. Maybe it really is possible. Where Mother Chen is needed. She really wanted to ask Mother Chen what channels she had and whether she knew about the so-called black market? She also wanted to take a look.

"Okay, you guys have just come down, get ready to start eating." Mother Chen greeted everyone and prepared to start the meal.

In order to welcome Tang Xin, the Chen family also carefully prepared today's lunch. Since they are all authentic Beijing people, they prepared mostly Beijing specialties. Mother Chen also specially asked her son to buy roast duck, and the table was full of people. Finished lunch in a fuss.

At noon, Tang Xin and Chen Xi took a nap together, and then they played with Chen Xi's nephew for a while. Chen Xi took Tang Xin for a walk around Chen's house, and went to the grocery store to buy some popsicles. There were thermos bottles in them, and I took a few back to my family.

In the evening, when Tang’s mother came to pick up Tang Xin, she was stuffed with a popsicle and left after eating. During this period, Chen’s mother and Tang’s mother chatted about buying fruit. Tang’s mother knew that her daughter had many bad ideas, so she agreed. I'll ask Mother Chen after I get home.

When the two left, they were naturally stuffed with a lot of peaches and some Beijing-style snacks. They had no choice but to reciprocate the gift. They brought a lot to Chen Xi last time, and they had to accept the Chen family's return gift this time.
