Chapter 125 Qiao Lin and the others give gifts again
After making up her mind, Qiao Lei took immediate action and found a group of children who often played near the village chief's house.
I took a bag of colorful candies and gave it to the leading child, asking him to distribute them to the other children.
Ask them to keep an eye on the village chief and notify them as soon as the village chief goes to the commune.
Ever since Qiao Lei learned about the teacher recruitment, even the simplest children would give her one or two pieces of rock candy to change the image of her in everyone's mind.
These children are familiar with Qiao Lei. When they saw so many beautiful candies, their eyes immediately lit up like stars and they nodded in agreement.
As soon as the village chief went to the commune that day, Qiao Lei pulled Lin Xiaomei and picked up two pieces of cloth to go to the village chief's house.
If someone meets you, just ask Wang Lanhua to help teach you how to make clothes. If no one meets you, just be polite.
Seeing Lin Xiaomei's painful expression, Qiao Lei didn't let the other party take out the two pieces of cloth.
It happened to be dark and it looked like it was going to snow heavily, so I didn't meet anyone on the road.
Wang Lanhua opened the door and saw Qiao Lei and Lin Xiaomei standing outside, holding things in their hands.
During this period, Qiao Lei and the others always asked her to help with this and that, and gave her a lot of benefits.
Now seeing them carrying things, I felt like they were the God of Wealth. I greeted them with a smile on my face and said warmly, "Come in! Why are you two here at this hour?"
As she spoke, she stepped aside and let the two of them into the house.
Qiao Lei's lips curved up, revealing two sweet dimples. She giggled non-stop, and a clear voice came out: "Aunt Lan, I'm just bored at home, so I come to bother you again."
As she spoke, she walked into the house and sat on the kang without any courtesy.
After Qiao Lei sat down, she placed the cloth on the table and said, "Aunt, I'm sorry for causing you so much trouble during this period. These two pieces of cloth are the fine cotton cloth we just got. We'll use them to make two sets of underwear for my niece."
Li Ying has already left the confinement period after giving birth to a daughter. The two of them had previously given her eggs and brown sugar, and now they are giving her cloth.
The smile on Wang Lanhua's face disappeared all of a sudden. It shouldn't be a simple gift.
Putting on a serious expression, she immediately frowned and said in a feigned anger, "What are you two doing? Take it back quickly. You're here to play, why are you bringing anything with you? I accepted it shamelessly last time you gave it to me. Why are you giving it to me again this time? What's the point of me accepting it? Take it back quickly, or else it will look bad!"
After saying that, he pretended to reach out and push the gifts to Qiao Lei and the others.
Qiao Lei was not anxious at all, but rather very happy. She felt that Wang Lanhua understood what she meant.
She smiled sweetly and said, "Aunt, please don't say that. We only used the fabric because it was soft to make clothes for our niece.
Besides, if you insist on us taking the things back, then I will think that you don’t like us coming here to bother you so often and want to drive us away!"
After saying this, she blinked her eyes playfully, deliberately making a very sad and pitiful look.
When Wang Lanhua heard this, she immediately smiled like a flower, she was so happy.
She liked this Zhiqing Qiao from the bottom of her heart. She was such a smart and clever little girl.
Wang Lanhua didn't beat around the bush and said, "It's not easy for you female educated youth to be out there alone. If you have any problems, just tell me. I will definitely help if I can."
Qiao Lei's eyes suddenly lit up. This was the sentence she was waiting for.
The voice was clear and crisp, "It's true, Auntie. You know us girls, doing farm work like men every day is really a bit too much. Can you help me talk to you when Uncle comes back and arrange some lighter work for us next year?"
"That... okay, I'll tell your uncle when he comes back. Don't worry, I'm keeping this in mind. I'll let you know whether it works or not."
Wang Lanhua hesitated for a moment, but still nodded and agreed.
She thought to herself that if it didn't work out, the worst that could happen was that she could just return the gifts on the table.
Seeing Wang Lanhua so straightforward, Qiao Lei was instantly delighted and said with a smile on her face, "Auntie, thank you so much! If this thing can be done, we will definitely come to your house to thank you. Please don't think we are annoying then."
After hearing this, Wang Lanhua couldn't help but feel moved. Could there be a reward after the task was accomplished?
This girl is really smart...
A few of them started chatting happily. The atmosphere was relaxed and bursts of laughter could be heard from time to time. They were as close as old friends who had known each other for many years.
Time passed quickly, and they felt that they had almost finished chatting. Qiao Lei rolled her eyes, found an excuse, and pulled Lin Xiaomei up to say goodbye.
After they left the yard, Lin Xiaomei couldn't help but lower her voice and said to Qiao Lei, "We didn't make things clear just now. What if something goes wrong?"
Qiao Lei also replied softly: "Meizi, don't worry, trust my arrangements."
Lin Xiaomei was slightly stunned and murmured to herself: "Of course I always believed in you."
"Okay, let's go back quickly, it's too cold." Qiao Lei said, pulling Lin Xiaomei's hand and quickening her pace.
After seeing the two men off, Wang Lanhua turned back into the house and prepared to carefully lock the cloth in the cabinet.
It is impossible to make clothes for my granddaughter. What's the point of making so many clothes for a child? It won't be long before they can't be worn.
Just as she reached out to take it, she suddenly found that it was Dacron fabric.
This cloth costs several yuan per foot, and their supply and marketing cooperative doesn't sell it.
She only got to know this fabric last year when she went to her second son to buy clothes for her second daughter-in-law during her confinement.
So I opened it to see if I could make a shirt. I made a shirt for my little girl in the spring so that she could wear it when she went to her in-laws' house during the summer vacation.
Suddenly two red envelopes fell out from inside, her heart beat faster, and then she looked around cautiously.
After making sure that there was no one around, he quickly picked up the two red envelopes and opened them impatiently to take a look.
When she saw the amount inside, she gasped in shock. The two red envelopes together contained a hundred yuan!
She felt her throat tighten suddenly, and she hurriedly packed up the red envelope and found a particularly secluded place to hide it.
After everything was done, Wang Lanhua no longer had any desire to do housework.
At this moment, her originally calm heart was like fifteen buckets of water being drawn - up and down, and the thoughts in her mind were as tangled as a mess, and she couldn't make sense of it at all.
She was really confused.
Someone once said that he wanted his old man to find some easier work in the village, and I took it seriously.
Only now did I realize that this was definitely not an ordinary job. But what kind of job could be worth so much money?
She also didn't hear about the election of village cadres, and even if there was a village cadre, it wouldn't be the turn of those two girls.
The more she thought about it, the more she felt that the money was like a hot potato and difficult to handle.
I want to return it, but I can't bear to do so.
As for her being greedy for this little money, just think about the personalities of those two girls and she would never have such an idea.
After all, it’s not worth it to lose face for such a small amount of money!
