Chapter 203 Shopping
There are a total of five lesbians in the chicken farm.
The three lesbians already lived in a dormitory, so they couldn't get in.
And the two of them are not good, each occupying a dormitory.
The factory director arranged for Xia Zhi and Li Zhaodi to live together. The only trouble was that Li Zhaodi also had two children, so they would definitely not be able to live happily together.
Li Zhaodi also understood in her heart and said to the field director a little guiltily.
"Director, I have two children, especially this one who cries a lot in the middle of the night. Why don't you look at a small house and let the three of us live alone in one room.
Otherwise, you'll make others so noisy that they won't be able to sleep well at night, and you won't be able to go to work the next day. "
The field manager's surname is Bian.
The factory director thought about it after hearing this.
"There is a small room, but it is too small. It can only fit a kang, a small kang and a table.
I'm afraid you can't live there with your two children, and the roof of the house is leaking and no one has lived in it for a long time. If you want to move in now, I'm afraid..."
Xia Zhi looked at the dormitory in front of him. This dormitory could at least sleep three or four people on the fire bed, plus some simple things.
"Director, how about I go live in that small house? It might be inconvenient for Comrade Li Zhaodi to live in that house with her two children."
Mainly because Xia Zhi saw that room. The dormitory was at the end of the dormitory area.
Their entire dormitory area is in a large courtyard.
Although the room is small and looks a bit dark, the good thing is that it is quiet here.
And it's not far from the well in the yard.
What's more important is that although this house is small, the kitchen at the door is not small.
On the contrary, the kitchens in the row of dormitories in front of the courtyard are relatively smaller.
Looking at it this way, Xia Zhi is quite satisfied.
Fortunately, both parties were satisfied and everyone began to settle down immediately.
Xia Zhi cleaned the house. The only drawback of this house is that it is small and the orientation is not good, so the house is a bit cold and damp.
Fortunately, there is a window. Although it is not big, it can provide ventilation when opened.
And since they arrived, the weather here has been relatively cold.
There are no beds in the house, but earthen kangs.
The summer solstice is relatively receptive to Tukang.
I organized the things I brought, cleaned the house, and made the bed. Basically, I can make do tonight.
The earthen kang cannot be started tonight, and the firewood will be burned tomorrow. It will be fine if we make do with it overnight.
Summer solstice things are basically piled at one end of the kang.
It's actually okay for two people to sleep on this kang.
The kang is smaller than others, but her kang is pretty good.
The only drawback is that the house has not been renovated and has some drafts and air leaks. The wind blowing in through the windows at night makes people feel freezing.
Xia Zhi is thinking about a few things to do tomorrow. The first thing is to get the curtains on this window.
A cotton curtain must be hung on the door.
Especially in the winter, the window must be blocked with newspapers or plastic sheets. Otherwise, the winter is so cold that even with a fire on the stove, it may be unbearable.
What's more, no one in the house has anything to do but get a box or a wardrobe, and a small table, which can at least be used to eat and entertain people.
Get another cupboard and have room to put dishes and chopsticks.
The most important thing is to prepare a washbasin, bucket, broom, and dustpan.
And I have to go get some food tomorrow.
I ate something on the night of the summer solstice and slept until dawn. When I got up the next day, I felt that the room could freeze to death. The temperature here is really no joke.
It’s already freezing even before late autumn.
In the morning, I made do with cold water and washed my face. This was water drawn from the well in the yard.
There wasn't even a washbasin, so I made do with washing at the well.
Li Zhaodi was taking her two children with her. When they saw each other running to the well to wash their faces, they couldn't help but smile at each other.
Fortunately, give them some time.
Xia Zhi and Li Zhaodi were both new here and needed to buy things, so they ran to the neighbors to inquire about it.
Not to mention, their neighbors were quite enthusiastic. They heard that they were new employees and told them enthusiastically.
Generally speaking, if they want to buy things here, there is a small cooperative at the entrance of the village.
But not much.
You can buy whatever you want, and it's not all available. Unless you wait until everyone has a rest, there will be a carriage here to go to the county town.
Of course, sometimes you can pick up tractors from a brigade from a nearby village heading to the county.
Not to mention that the two of them were lucky enough to arrive at the small shop in the village.
The staff of the small shop is the village chief's wife.
As a result, I heard that the village had a tractor going to the site today. It would go in the morning and return in the evening.
Of course she wanted to go to Xia Zhi, but Li Zhaodi touched the money in her pocket, waved her hand, and said with a smile.
"Sister, go ahead on your own, I've almost got enough of this."
Xia Zhi didn't say anything. She just waited for the tractor at the entrance of the village with her bag on her back and told the villagers that she was a worker at a chicken farm. The villagers were quite enthusiastic when they heard this and immediately let her get on the truck.
When we get to the county town, the tractor driver has to pull feed.
I made an agreement with the people in the car to wait at the same intersection at 3pm, and I won’t wait if it’s late.
Xia Zhi took her satchel and found the supply and marketing cooperative in the county town. She was relieved when she saw the things in the supply and marketing cooperative. The things here were dazzling and quite complete.
There are definitely no big pieces of furniture here, but there are still things like washbasins and buckets.
I bought a lot of things inside and outside during the summer solstice.
I bought some seasonings, soy sauce, vinegar, salt and the like.
I bought floral cloth and blue-processed second-quality cloth, and also bought some cotton.
Fortunately, she had enough money and tickets, otherwise it would be really difficult to buy things.
Not to mention towels, toothbrushes, soap, soap and other things, you have to buy them all, otherwise you may not have them at the village canteen.
The vegetable shop next to it was also open. I went there and bought some noodles, eggs, various vegetables, vermicelli, tofu and the like.
In fact, there are no vegetables, just Chinese cabbage, potatoes, and radishes.
At Xia Zhi, I went to the grain store again to buy grain.
I only bought 20 kilograms of white flour and 100 kilograms of cornmeal. The most important thing is that there is a lot of rice here, and the price of rice is quite cheap.
I bought another 50 kilograms of rice.
All kinds of things, Xia Zhi was not idle anyway, he bought so many things and carried them directly to the place where he was waiting for the bus.
After a while, the people who arrived on this bus had basically bought enough things for their own homes, including farm tools, grain, and other things.
Some people even bought two piglets and four or five chickens.
Xia Zhi looked at it with greed, but she also knew that she couldn't take so many things, even if she wanted to do this, she probably couldn't.
There is no way to build a chicken coop or pig pen in the dormitory yard. Besides, they are originally chicken and pig farms, so it may not be suitable to raise them by themselves.
