Siheyuan, I want to lie down but I become a tool

When I got home, I saw that everyone except my little sister was awake. Seeing that the siblings had returned safely, mother Wang Xiulan breathed a sigh of relief and whispered:

"I'm glad you're back. I hope nothing happened to you."

"It's okay, everything went well. Mom, you guys should go to bed early."

Zhang Xingwang had been traveling all day and had been out for the middle of the night. He was physically and mentally exhausted. He replied casually and went to bed.

Before going to bed, he saw his fourth sister looking at him eagerly with a look of curiosity on her face. Even his second sister asked him a rare question, "Did they really send the roe deer?"

But at this moment, Zhang Xingwang was so sleepy that he fell asleep as soon as he lay down.

I could vaguely hear the eldest sister's excited voice and the fourth sister's suppressed exclamation!

It was around nine o'clock when Zhang Xingwang was awakened by a "ding" sound. As usual, he signed in automatically. There was nothing special. The space increased by 0.1 cubic meters to 1.5 cubic meters. He was rewarded with 5 kilograms of sweet potatoes.

It seems that the reward materials are not linked to holidays. Brother Tong has blocked the back door completely, leaving no way for shortcuts. Moreover, he doesn't even give us staple food. Some millet will be fine.

I wasted my time thinking about it yesterday. But at this rate, we won't have to worry about food at home.

I stayed in bed for a while. It felt great not to have to go to work. I will go to the village and the mountains tomorrow.

I have to go shopping today, and I also take this opportunity to rest. Otherwise, running back and forth like this every day, although I earn more, it is more tiring than going to work.

I found my fourth sister washing dishes in the kitchen, ate breakfast, picked up my youngest sister who was counting ants, and went out.

"I've already eaten the meat today, can I buy you some candy?"

"Okay, Guoguo, Xiaoya wants to eat candy the most."

When the little girl heard this, she smiled and showed her big white teeth.

Sure enough, sugar is much more attractive to children than meat.

I went to the supply and marketing cooperative again. This time my wallet was full. I went in and bought a candy worth 1 cents for the little girl without saying anything. The little girl was very happy. She couldn't stop smiling and protected the remaining 9 candies in her hand with a satisfied look on her face.

It is still easier to please little girls in this era. A dime worth of candy can make them happy for the whole day. If it were a little ancestor in the future, I am afraid she would look disgusted.

He took out a pile of money and bills from his pocket and started making large purchases under the shocked gaze of the saleswoman.

But the auntie worked as a salesperson, so she probably saw a lot of people. She just asked in surprise:

"How come you have so many tickets? Can't you make ends meet? Does your family know that you spend so much money?"

"Isn't it okay for me to save it?"

Then I started shopping. I bought ten packs of Daqianmen first.

"Young man, you smoke such good cigarettes, economical cigarettes that cost 8 cents are so good, and you buy so many at one time."

"Is it not okay for me to have a large displacement? Besides, it's just right for me to have a large front door, which is economical."

Under the strange gaze of the aunt, I asked for another 2 kilograms of sugar and cakes, planning to bring them back to the old man and the old lady the next time I go back. The cakes were actually just peach cakes and glutinous rice cakes.

I used the rest to buy a flashlight, so I now have an electrical appliance at home.

I looked for a long time and wanted all of them. But I was short of money, so after thinking for a long time, I decided to spend all my nine cloth coupons and buy some cloth. I kept one dollar and twenty-five cents, and used the rest to buy some flower hairbands and hairpins.

Everything else can be put aside for now. No matter what, make new clothes for your family first.

It was fine for her own clothes. Wang Xiulan wore the work clothes issued by the factory every day, so she didn't consider it for the time being. But the clothes of her two sisters were all washed white. They were grown-ups, but they didn't even have a piece of clothing without patches.

The little sister's shorts were so short that they almost turned into pants. Her buttocks were covered with patches and looked tattered, like a little beggar.

She was wearing a ragged vest, which must have been altered from one of her sisters' clothes. She didn't even have a hairband. Fortunately, her fourth sister kept her clean every day, otherwise she would have looked like a crazy girl.

I took the things and pulled the little girl back. When I asked her something on the way, she just shook her head and nodded. She was afraid that the candy in her mouth would fall out. She looked very cute.

He took all the bags home, threw them to his fourth sister and said:

"Take these hairbands and hairpins and divide them among you sisters. There is also some fabric for your elder sister and younger sister to make clothes."

But we only bought nine feet of cloth in total, which is enough to make one set for an adult and one for a little girl.

The eldest sister is the oldest among the sisters, 21 years old, and she often goes out to do odd jobs. She must have decent clothes.

Not to mention my younger sister, if I don’t make clothes for her, she will really be nothing but shorts.

The fourth sister was very excited and took the things to the bed. She looked at them one by one and muttered:

"Brother, why don't you have thread? Did you not buy any? I do have some at home, and my second sister can make clothes, but without thread, what can I do?"

As if she was afraid of irritating Zhang Xingwang, she turned around and looked at him carefully, and said helplessly:

"It's okay, brother. Wait until mom comes back and let her go buy it."

Zhang Xingwang felt numb again, and the excitement was gone in an instant. This fourth sister was simply her nemesis!

He silently took out the sweet potatoes and put them on the table.

"Here are the sweet potatoes I bought. Let's eat them together when we get back in the evening."

The fourth sister was still concentrating on looking at the hairband at the moment. She responded absentmindedly and did not ask where the sweet potatoes came from.

Sure enough, for women, colorful things are more attractive than food.

Sure enough, after a long while, the fourth sister found that the youngest sister was standing in front of her happily, puffing her cheeks and not saying anything. After asking, she learned that she also bought bitter candy, and then the sisters puffed their cheeks and ate candy happily together.

At this moment, the fourth sister looked like a 13-year-old girl. Seeing the two sisters eating candy with a smile on their faces, Zhang Xingwang suddenly felt a sense of accomplishment. Well, this job as a courier was worth it.

In the evening, the family drank sweet potato porridge. The naughty little sister took the remaining candy and put one in each bowl of her mother and sisters.

It must be because they haven't had sweets for a long time. The women at the table were all talking and laughing happily. This is a bit like eating in the future. In the past few days, everyone was frowning and sighing when eating. If they were not full, they would burp when they saw the little girl eating. Now it's better, at least they can eat their fill.

Moreover, Zhang Xingwang really saw the appetite of several women in the family this time. Even the fourth sister ate more than him! Not to mention his mother, the eldest and second sisters were even bigger eaters.

Today, Zhang Xingwang specifically told his fourth sister that from now on, the worst meal at home must be porridge. He would take care of the bad food and would never drink porridge again.

Although she couldn't avoid the distrustful look from her fourth sister, she still obediently made a big pot of sweet potato and corn grits porridge under the threat of his eyes.

There was not a single drop of rice left in this huge pot. The eldest sister ate three bowls and still felt unsatisfied. The second sister, the fourth sister and the mother were not to be outdone and ate more than two bowls each. Even the youngest sister drank a large bowl.

The main reason is that people nowadays have little fat in their stomachs, and the people at home haven’t had a full meal for a long time, so they have a big appetite.

Looking at the elder sister's expression, it would be easy for her to have another bowl.
