Chapter 37

In the evening, the new year's Eve dinner was very rich. There were not only rolls that Huo Jianfeng liked to eat, but also dumplings that were necessary for every family's new year's Eve dinner, plus a plate of salted duck eggs. The yolk of each duck egg was full of oil stars. A plate of shredded potatoes for rolls, a plate of thinly sliced meat, a plate of bean sprouts and a large bowl of egg paste filled everyone's heart and soul.

There is another important program after dinner, that is, Huo Jianfeng took out his satchel and said that he had brought gifts for everyone.

To my uncle was a packet of "Yingchun" cigarettes.

In this era, cigarettes can't be bought with money. They can only be bought with tickets or industrial rolls. Usually, people who smoke these cigarettes are either leading cadres or public officials with fixed jobs.

The cigarettes smoked by rural commune members are collectively referred to as dry tobacco. They take the cut paper and roll it with their own tobacco leaves, or smoke it with a tobacco bag pot. For them, such filter cigarettes placed in the glass counters of shopping malls are simply unattainable luxuries. A pack of cigarettes costs 28 cents, which they are reluctant to buy and smoke.

Wang Wenyuan took the packet of cigarettes Huo Jianfeng bought for him. He was not only happy that the child was filial to him, but also a little distressed that the child spent money. He couldn't help complaining and saying, "look at your child, why do you buy such expensive cigarettes for me? I'll just smoke a dry cigarette. Does this one cost more than three yuan? I'm old enough to have money... "

My aunt took a cigarette, looked at it over and over, and said, "my child, I'm filial to you. Just take it. What are you talking about? Last year, you were greedy for Zhang Dabai. Did his son buy him filter cigarettes? Don't be greedy this time. His son will buy him a bag, and Jianfeng of our family will buy one for you. You'll be greedy for him with the cigarettes tomorrow! "

My uncle grinned and said, "I don't think it's OK. I don't like that old boy's boasting all day long. When his son works as a temporary worker in the city, he gives me his name. I have to show his face this time."

Seeing the childish side of his uncle, Han Mingxiu couldn't help but smile. With a casual smile, he bumped into the eyes of brother Bing, making him momentary stunned.

This little girl looks good when she smiles, especially her white and dense teeth, which are neat and refreshing like a row of white pearls. She often brushes her teeth.

"Brother, did you buy me anything?"

In the chaos, he didn't see his brother's hesitation and didn't say what to buy for him. He couldn't help it, so he had the cheek to ask.

"Why don't you go up and ask if they've bought you anything? Do you know how much it will cost your brother to buy this cigarette for your father? And ask your brother for something, and you're shameless? "

Zhang Shuzhen was afraid that Huo Jianfeng didn't buy anything for Da Luan. Da Luan asked him if he was sorry, so she slapped him on the back of the head and gave his eldest son a step down.

Fortunately, Huo Jianfeng didn't need his mother to set up steps at all. He bought things in disorder. It was an iron stationery box with a bright pattern of Nezha making sea on it.

"Brother, I'll buy you a stationery box. In the future, you should study hard, make progress every day, and strive to be a useful person to the country!"

"Ha ha, thank you, thank you..."

After taking the stationery box in disorder, I couldn't smile. Today's stationery box is not as popular as later generations, especially in rural areas. If any child can have a bought iron stationery box, it's no different from later generations' children taking the latest Apple mobile phone.

Holding the pencil case in hand, it was heavy. As soon as it was shaken, there was a clattering sound inside, as if something was in it. When I opened the pencil case, I found that there were seven or eight pencils in it, as well as erasers, rulers, knives (for sharpening pencils) and other stationery. They were all brand new.

Having a new and fashionable stationery is the dream of many children in this era. Although daluan is not a good student, she is still surprised to see such a fashionable stationery. Holding stationery, she is going to run out and want to share her joy with her friends. Zhang Shuzhen is so easy to hold him!
