Chapter 34 Package
Chapter 34 Package
"Feng Ya, you're here." Shi Shengxia opened the door and let Zhang Fengfeng in.
"Shengxia, take this. I brought these eggs especially for you." Zhang Fengfeng handed an egg to Shi Shengxia.
Ever since Shi Shengxia was scolded by Zhu Jiajun last time, Zhang Fengfeng has been getting closer and closer to Shi Shengxia under the pretext of comforting her savior.
Shi Shengxia was not familiar with the people in the Youth League Home in front of her. Suddenly, a girl came to ask about her well-being and brought her eggs or water every few days.
In her original world, Shengxia was always being praised and coaxed by others, so she didn't think anything was wrong and became a little sister with Zhang Fengfeng.
After dinner, Shen Nian'an and Shen Nianle did their homework on the kang table by the light of a kerosene lamp, while Shen Nian was sorting out the things he had brought back today.
"Sister? Were those packages sent to us by Uncle Zhang?" Shen Nianle looked up at his sister curiously.
Shen Nian put the last bag of peach cakes into the kang cabinet: "I don't know, I'll know after I take a look!"
"Sister! Can I take a look?" Shen Nianle looked at Shen Nian with anticipation.
"Okay, you can read it after you finish your homework." Shen Nian responded with a smile.
Shen Nianle immediately buried his head in his homework. Soon, he finished and immediately put the homework book aside. Then he excitedly crawled to Shen Nian's side: "Sister! I'm done! Can I see it?"
Shen Nian pushed the package in front of him over, and Shen Nianle opened it carefully and took out the things inside one by one.
"Wow! Sister! Uncle Zhang sent us some cloth! How come there are some books and pens here? What did Uncle Zhang send the books and pens for? There's also a letter inside!"
Shen Nianle handed the letter to Shen Nian, and looked at the things he took out, feeling a little depressed. He and Shen Nian'an could use the pens, but these books were all for junior high school and above, and they were still far from junior high school.
Shen Nian took the letter and read its contents, a smile forming on her lips. The cloth was for making a few sets of clothes for her and her brother, and the books and pens were given to her by Uncle Zhang, encouraging her to pick up the books she had left behind, hoping that they would study hard and have a better future.
"Nian Le, these books were sent to me by Uncle Zhang." Shen Nian explained.
"Oh, sister, this package was sent by Uncle Zhang, so who sent the other two to us?" Shen Nianle continued to point at the remaining two packages and asked.
"Open it and you'll know!" Shen Nian said as he reached out to open one, and there was some food inside.
"Sister! Why is there cloth in this package?" Shen Nianle picked up a piece of cloth from the package.
"Sister, who sent this to us?" Shen Nianle was very curious, because cloth was a rare thing.
Shen Nian looked at the package in front of her and then at the package in front of Shen Nianle. She had a guess in her mind, but she was not too sure. After all, they had only met once.
"Xiao Le, look inside to see if there is a letter."
Shen Nianle pulled away the cloth inside and found a letter. He handed the letter to his sister.
Shen Nian took the letter and saw that it was sent from Beijing. She opened the letter and the beginning of the letter was straight to the point, thanking her for her heroic rescue on the train and catching the human traffickers.
He explained that he was the parent of one of the children who was rescued on the spot and didn't know how to express his gratitude to them. He learned from the child's grandmother that Shen Nian was an educated youth who went to the countryside, and she happened to work in a textile factory.
It just so happened that their factory was recently dealing with a batch of cloth with minor defects, and they thought Shen Nian should be able to use it, so they simply sent some cloth to Shen Nian to make clothes, and hoped that Shen Nian would not be disgusted.
Shen Nian took the cloth in front of Shen Nianle and looked at it from front to back. There was no flaw on it. Could it be that the other party said this because he was afraid that she would not accept it?
It seems that the other package was also sent by the person who left the address on the train, but there was no letter on it.
"Sister, does the letter say who it's from?" Shen Nianle was really curious. Apart from Uncle Zhang, they didn't know anyone else who would send them anything.
"Remember what happened on the train when we went to the countryside?"
Shen Nian sorted out the cloths and planned to get a sewing machine in a few days to make clothes. She hadn't touched this thing for a long time and she missed it a lot.
"Sister, are you saying this package was sent by those people who left your address on the train?"
Shen Nianle thought about it for a long time but couldn't remember it, but Shen Nian'an, who was reading a book nearby, remembered it.
"Really, sister? They sent it to thank us?"
"That's right!" Shen Nian nodded and moved all the things to his room.
"I'll give you more after you finish eating the food in the kang cabinet! Don't eat secretly at night! Go to bed early!" After Shen Nian said that, she closed the brothers' door with a "bang".
Shen Nian'an and Shen Nianle have become accustomed to their sister's behavior. After their sister left, the two brothers turned off the lights and got into bed in one go.
Shen Nian returned to her room and sorted out her things and locked them in the kang cabinets. The more she looked at these large kang cabinets, the more satisfied she became. They could hold anything, and whatever she took out could be hidden!
After sorting out the things, Shen Nian entered the space. Since he had to prepare clothes for winter, there were many things to buy.
Shen Nian, holding the mobile phone, once again sighed at the convenience of the mobile phone. Her "where you earn money, where you spend it" APP is really good, you can get whatever you want!
Even sewing machines can be bought! Shen Nian fell into deep thought. To buy this thing at the supply and marketing cooperative, she needed a ticket. She didn't have a sewing machine ticket. She only had industrial coupons. Should she buy it from the space and then get it back from the street?
Shen Nian put the matter aside and started buying wool, fabric, and cotton. She didn't dare to choose bright colors, and all of them were black, gray, and blue, which matched the current situation.
Use the wool to knit some sweaters, trousers and socks for the two brothers, and make some thick quilts.
Once she started shopping, Shen Nian couldn't stop. She wanted to buy everything she saw. Seeing more and more packages on the living room table, Shen Nian stopped.
In the morning, the Shen Nian'an brothers went to school after breakfast, and Shen Nian prepared to go up the mountain to collect firewood.
The cold weather comes early in Liaoning Province. If they don't prepare more firewood in advance, they will not be able to bear the cold when winter comes without heating the kang. What's more, this is their first time to spend the winter here, so they may not be able to bear the cold here.
It was early in the morning and there were not many people on the road leading to the back mountain. Shen Nian breathed in the fresh air in the morning and felt happy.
What makes her most happy about returning to this era is probably that the air is very fresh and has not been polluted by industrialization.
"Uncle Gu, good morning! Are you also going up the mountain to collect firewood?" As soon as Shen Nian walked out of the hospital gate, he met Gu Jianhua who was also going out and another male comrade Wang Yiming in the cowshed.
Wang Yiming nodded at her and walked ahead.
Gu Jianhua, a step behind him, greeted Shen Nian with a smile: "Good morning, is Mr. Shen also going up the mountain to collect firewood?"
"Yes! This is my first time spending the winter here, and I don't know how much firewood will be enough, so I just pick up more." Shen Nian explained.
"You need to be more prepared. Winters here are colder than other places, and once they get cold, they can last for several months."
Gu Jianhua nodded, recalling the first winter after he came here, when his family of four almost died here.
