A Time Travel Effort in the 70s

Chapter 183 Zhang Aihua came to deliver clothes

"Just unload it in the kitchen. I'd like to trouble Brother Chang Kai to see if there is any room for it in the kitchen."

"Okay, Xiao Yang, you unload and I'll carry. I'll go see if it can fit."

Shen Jiaren led the way and took Chang Kai into the kitchen.

Chang Kai walked into the kitchen and found that the corner of the kitchen was already full of firewood, so he said to Shen Jiaren, "You go outside and look after the coal briquettes and the coal pile first. Xiao Yang and I will move the firewood. Do you have any other place to put it?

If you don’t make some room, it won’t fit.”

"Yes, yes, yes, it's the firewood pile at the entrance."

Chang Kai went out to look at the firewood shed and said to Shen Jiaren, "Go ahead and watch the door. By the way, call Xiao Yang back. Remember to call him brother."

Shen Jiaren nodded and asked Brother Yang to go back and help Chang Kai move firewood.

Shen Jiaren stood at the gate and asked, "Brother Chang Kai, do you really not need my help?"

"No, how can you help? Just watch. We are used to working together, so it will be quick."

Shen Jiaren was standing at the door, watching Brother Chang Kai and Brother Xiao Yang cleaning up the firewood pile in the kitchen.

Seeing that she couldn't play for a while, and she hadn't told anyone that she wanted to help clean up the kitchen, Shen Jiaren tied the black wolf to the tractor at the door from the yard. After telling it to watch the tractor carefully, she went back to the main house to pour them a glass of water.

Shen Jiaren took a tray, found a teapot, poured each of them a cup of green tea, added some white sugar, put some biscuits on the tray, and then placed the tray at the kitchen door for Chang Kai and Xiao Yang to eat and drink.

After a while, the two of them cleaned up the firewood pile in the kitchen and squatted at the door to drink water. Shen Jiaren glanced into the kitchen from the door and found that Brother Chang Kai had cleaned up the kitchen for Shen Jiaren directly. After tidying up the firewood pile in a corner, he also left a corner for coal briquettes and coal.

When Chang Kai and Xiao Yang walked to the door of the tractor to unload coal, they found a dog squatting next to the tractor. When they saw the two of them approaching, the dog stood up. Chang Kai hurriedly called out, "Xiao Shen, Xiao Shen, come over quickly and take the dog away."

After Shen Jiaren responded, she hurriedly led the black wolf to the place where Wangcai was tied.

Chang Kai saw Shen Jiaren taking the dog away, so he said to Shen Jiaren, "Your sister told me to take something back with me, so hurry up and pack it up. We can unload it quickly, and we have to rush back after that."

Shen Jiaren asked in surprise, "Aren't you staying for dinner? Although I can't cook, I can boil water."

"Hahahaha, no need. Your sister specifically told us not to eat here. Just take the food back." After Chang Kai finished speaking, he quietly walked up to Shen Jiaren while moving things and said, "When you pay the bill later, give them a little more money as the meal fee. I'll let it go.

After all, we only talked about unloading, and didn’t say we would help you build the woodshed.”

"Yes, brother, don't worry, I've prepared everything. I've asked around and found that most people who come here usually provide meals. I prepared the money, not the meals."

After saying that, Shen Jiaren chuckled at Chang Kai, and Chang Kai said, "You clever little guy, you just said that we should stay for dinner, what will you do if we really stay for dinner?"

"I'll take the things and ask the villagers to make them, and then I'll bring them back when the time comes. But I'll still pay them what they deserve."

After hearing this, Chang Kai laughed and shook his head. This kid, he really doesn't know how expensive firewood, rice, oil and salt are until he runs a household. Which family would hire someone to cook for them? But he didn't say anything and went on to unload the coal.

Shen Jiaren suddenly thought that since there were many chickens and eggs in her manor, giving away chickens was a bit too much, and it would probably be difficult to give away more next time. But eggs were okay, so she took the opportunity to go to the west room warehouse and took out a hundred eggs.

Shen Jiaren picked out ten eggs, packed them with straw, and placed them on top of the things she had packed to take back for Sister Hongmei, preparing to give one to each person later.

After unloading the coal briquettes and coal piles, Xiao Yang was doing the finishing work, and Chang Kai walked up to Shen Jiaren and said, "Where is the thing your sister asked you to bring?"

"Here, right next to me, there are these coal briquettes and the money for the coal, which is for your meal, and these two eggs tied with straw are a thank you gift for you two.

Thank you so much for today, otherwise I wouldn’t be able to do it alone.”

Chang Kai was counting the money while listening to what Shen Jiaren said. After hearing that Shen Jiaren not only prepared money for their meals but also prepared eggs for them, he said, "Eggs are not necessary. They are too expensive. Ten is not a small amount. You can keep them for yourself.

I've counted the money, there's no problem with the coal briquettes, and you gave more than usual for the meal, so you don't have to give me the eggs, keep them for yourself or exchange them for something else."

"No, no, I really have a lot of eggs. You can take them. If I want to buy coal briquettes next time, I will have to trouble you again."

"I've seen that you have so much firewood and the briquettes and coal you bought. If you use it alone, it's enough to get through the winter. But you're not rich, so you need to be a little more frugal."

"I'd better wait until you are not busy, then I'll buy some more. I'm not used to this kind of firewood, and the villagers said it's quite cold in winter, and I'm afraid of the cold."

Chang Kai smiled after hearing what Shen Jiaren said. As for the coal that Shen Jiaren bought this time, people in the city would not buy so much. Most of them would just buy a little for use, basically all for firewood.

But then he thought about what Shen Jiaren said about being afraid of the cold, and living alone in such a big house, so he replied, "Okay, after these few days are over, we will discuss a time to send it to you.

As for this coal, as long as you pay, the quantity is not a problem.

But you have to be careful not to leave the coal balls outside, otherwise when it snows, the coal balls will get wet and it will be difficult to light. If you want to buy more, your kitchen will not be able to store them, so you have to find another place to put them. "

"Yes, there are places available. You can take these things quickly. I didn't even bother you with eating, and I asked you to help clean up the kitchen."

After Shen Jiaren finished speaking, she ignored Chang Kai and instead took the egg tied with straw to the tractor outside.

Chang Kai saw Shen Jiaren carrying straw and walking towards the gate, so he hurriedly took his things and followed her. However, he did not expect that the straw was so heavy that he stumbled.

When Chang Kai went out with the sack on his back, he wanted to ask Shen Jiaren what was in the sack. However, Shen Jiaren did not enter the yard, but just stood there watching him carry the things. In addition, there were always people around, so Chang Kai could not directly ask what was in the sack.

Chang Kai moved everything twice before he finished moving it.

"Xiao Shen, are you sure there's nothing left?"

"No more, no more, just these two, a sack and a backpack. Brother, remember to give the backpack to Sister Hongmei and ask her to keep it for me. I'll go to the supply and marketing cooperative to get it later."

Chang Kai nodded, got on the tractor, signaled Xiao Yang that they could go, and the two drove away on the tractor.

Shen Jiaren was just about to close the door and go home when she saw someone peeking over at the educated youth site. However, because the person flashed too quickly, Shen Jiaren couldn't see clearly who it was. She could only see that it was a woman.

Just as Shen Jiaren closed the door, she heard someone knocking on the door. Shen Jiaren just turned around and was about to go home, but then she turned back to see who it was.

Shen Jiaren led the black wolf back to the front door and prepared to open it to see who it was.

When I opened the door, it turned out to be Zhang Aihua, Aunt Aihua, Liu Hui's mother.

Shen Jiaren asked curiously, "Aunt Aihua, do you have something to talk to me about?"

"Hey, kid, have you forgotten that during the autumn harvest, you asked me to make you clothes in addition to gloves. You haven't come to get them for such a long time. Have you forgotten?"

To be honest, Shen Jiaren was still a little confused when she heard Aunt Aihua say this, because she really didn't remember this incident.

But I remember the gloves. Because we were going to harvest in autumn, we couldn't take the gloves from the manor out for the harvest, so we took some defective cloth and old clothes we had bought and asked them to make a pair of gloves.

But she did take the gloves at that time, but Shen Jiaren really didn’t remember anything else.
