Chapter 516: Ozawa is really capable.
When Shen Shuyu and his friends arrived at the supply and marketing cooperative, they found that they could not squeeze in at all because there were too many people.
As soon as Shen Qiu and Yang Fangfang squeezed in, they were pushed out by several middle-aged ladies, and their shoes were stepped on by them.
Shen Shuyu pulled Yang Fangfang and Shen Qiu out and helped them find shoes. "There are so many people in the supply and marketing cooperative. Even if we squeeze in, there shouldn't be anything to sell. Why don't we go to the city to have a look?"
This is what it’s like at the end of the year. No matter if you have money or not, you will come to the supply and marketing cooperative to buy something to bring home to make your family happy.
"Then let's go to the city."
It takes two and a half hours to get to the city's supply and marketing cooperative by sled. They are dressed warmly, so they don't feel cold outside.
The wind was strong, so they had to shout to speak. After Shen Shuyu shouted a few times, she didn't want to talk anymore because it was too tiring for her throat.
There were quite a few people in the city's supply and marketing cooperative. Shen Shuyu, Shen Qiu and their two sisters-in-law went in to buy things.
Gu Jiandong and several other big men followed them and took whatever they wanted to buy.
"Big sister, we have orange peel candies. Buy some."
"Sister-in-law, this piece of fabric is nice, would you like to buy it?"
"Shu Yu, I have some egg cakes. Take two kilograms back."
"Don't forget to buy the firecrackers the kids want to play with, or they'll make a scene when they get home."
After one round, Gu Jiandong and the others' backs were full.
Shen Jiabao didn't expect them to buy so much. He couldn't take it. He whispered, "We've bought almost everything. Let's go back."
Yang Fangfang ignored him, "I finally made it to the city's supply and marketing cooperative, I have to see what else I haven't bought."
Shen Jiabao whispered to his wife, "Fangfang, why don't you go back and make me a pair of shorts with some cloth? My shorts are all torn into strips."
"Okay, I'll make five for you."
Shen Jiabao was a little flattered. "Just wear two pairs to alternate."
Yang Fangfang went to buy cloth. Shen Jiawei patted his eldest brother on the shoulder and said, "Brother, your family status is a bit low."
Shen Jiabao gave his younger brother a blank look and said, "You don't understand since you don't have a wife."
Shen Jiawei: "..."
"We've finished shopping. Let's go back."
Shen Shuyu said, "We finally got here, let's go to the state-owned restaurant for a meal."
The three Shen Jiabao brothers nodded hurriedly, "Let's go to the state-owned restaurant for a meal."
They seldom go to state-owned restaurants, but now that their elder sister has said so, they naturally have to go for a meal.
Yang Fangfang was a person who knew how to live. She felt that eating at a state-owned restaurant was not cost-effective, but seeing how happy her husband was, she did not say anything to spoil his mood.
A group of people went to a state-owned restaurant and ordered their favorite food. Shen Shuyu ordered a bowl of noodles and a serving of dumplings.
Gu Jiandong ordered two big steamed buns, and Jiang Ziqiang and the others ordered a bowl of noodles.
Shen Shuyu couldn't finish the noodles and dumplings, so Gu Jiandong naturally ate all the remaining noodles and dumplings.
It was almost dark when they got home. When Mrs. Shen saw them coming back, she was puzzled, "Didn't you go to the supply and marketing cooperative to buy something? Why did you come back so late?"
"We went to the supply and marketing cooperative in the city. It was a long way to go, so we spent more than an hour wandering around the cooperative. Then we went to a state-owned restaurant to eat, which delayed us."
"Look at what you bought."
Old Mrs. Shen and Shen Chunling took over their backpacks and took out the contents one by one.
Shen Shuyu bought the most. As long as the supply and marketing cooperative had it, Shen Shuyu bought it.
Old Lady Shen looked at these old things and her mouth twitched. She praised, "My dear is really good at shopping. Look how many things he bought."
Old Man Shen nodded in agreement, "Guaibao knew that I didn't have many cigarettes left, so he bought me a big pack. That's really thoughtful."
"Mom, did you buy the firecrackers?"
"I bought it, but your dad put it away. I'll give it to you tomorrow. It's dark now, so you can't play with it."
Zhang Cuicui and Li Caixia were looking at the things their daughter-in-law bought. They took out each item and looked at them, and they were very satisfied.
Old Mrs. Shen made bone soup tonight. "Jiandong, Guaibao, wash your hands and eat."
Shen Shuyu ate her fill at the state-owned restaurant and drank a bowl of bone soup.
After eating, Gu Jiandong chatted with Old Man and Old Lady Shen in the main room, making them laugh.
Shen Shuyu was in the room, listening to their laughter and smiling. Xiaoze came in with a wooden bucket.
Shen Shuyu thought he was going to take a shower, "Xiao Ze, do you want to take a shower? Mom will get you some soap."
"It's not me who washes them, it's Mom who wants to wash them. Dad said that Mom's feet are cold at night and she needs to soak them to feel comfortable."
Shen Shuyu then noticed that the wooden barrel was half full of water. The wooden barrel was already very heavy, and the barrel filled with water was even heavier.
The child brought it in without even breathing heavily. Shen Shuyu thought that he was worthy of being her child, as he had great strength.
It is said that parents are the best teachers for their children. How does Gu Jiandong take care of Shen Shuyu?
Xiaoze remembered everything and followed his father's example to take care of his mother. "Mom, can you feel the water temperature and see if it's suitable?"
"It's appropriate. Xiaoze is really capable."
Being praised by his mother, Xiaoze was very happy, "Xiaoze is amazing, he can do everything."
"Yes, our Xiaoze knows everything."
Gu Jiandong walked in from outside and saw his son washing Shen Shuyu's feet, his eyes full of smiles.
"Whose child is so filial? He can wash his mother's feet at such a young age."
Xiaoze smiled with his eyes curved, "It's Mom and Dad's house. Dad, take off your shoes quickly. Xiaoze will wash Dad's feet."
The son is cute and filial. Shen Shuyu asked Gu Jiandong for credit, "I gave birth to a big son for you, are you happy?"
"Happy!" This is their child, how could Gu Jiandong not be happy.
Xiaoze washed his parents' feet and took the water out, then he felt sleepy. When he got home,
Xiaoze is more attached to Old Man and Old Lady Shen, and sleeps with them at night.
It was cold, and Shen Shuyu felt sleepy lying on the kang. It was just past nine o'clock and she yawned. "Gu Jiandong, I'm going to sleep first."
"Ah."
Before going to bed, Gu Jiandong would perform a set of military boxing exercises. After tucking the quilt into her, Gu Jiandong went out.
Shen Shuyu was half asleep and felt that she couldn't breathe. She pushed the man on her body and said, "Gu Jiandong, stop it. I'm very sleepy."
"It'll be fine soon."
The large palm gently rubbed Shen Shuyu's white and tender cheek. He had been training for many years, and his palm had a thick layer of calluses. Shen Shuyu felt itchy and murmured softly, "Itchy!"
"Then I'll tickle Shu Yu."
As soon as the quilt covered her, Shen Shuyu's mouth was blocked when she was about to speak.
The night was long and cold, the wind was howling! The kerosene lamp in the room was swaying, and two figures were shaking up and down against each other!
"Gu Jiandong, you are lying!"
Gu Jiandong, who had just finished his fun, spoke in a hoarse voice, "What did you lie to Shu Yu about?"
"You said it would be quick, look at the time now."
"If I hurry, Shu Yu will cry, and I can't bear to see you cry."
Shen Shuyu didn't have the energy to argue with him anymore, so she turned over and fell asleep soundly on his chest.
Gu Jiandong kissed his wife in his arms, then fell asleep with a smile on his face.
