Chapter 395: Jin Yuan Xiao
Grandpa Wu went to the city at noon yesterday, and few villagers saw him when he came back, so most people in the village didn’t know that Song Shuangshuang had returned to the village.
Early this morning, Song Shuangshuang carried her things and went to the village chief's house with her younger brother and two friends.
Song Shuangshuang felt something was strange when she came back from the mountain last night. It was only when she was rummaging through things that she realized what was wrong.
She miscalculated the date!
Before she left, she was only thinking about coming back before the fifteenth day of the first lunar month and taking a stroll around the city, but she forgot that she had to set aside a day to pay New Year's greetings to several village leaders.
Aunt Chang and Aunt Wang, the familiar families, don’t have much of a relationship with her, but she definitely can’t be left behind as a village leader, as she still has to stay in the village for two years!
He could only find two items of 'previous stock' from home to give New Year's greetings to several village leaders, and gave two to He Feiyang.
The first stop is still the village chief’s house.
Seeing Song Shuangshuang and others coming with things, the village chief and his wife didn't expect them to come back so early.
"Song Zhiqing, Tan Zhiqing, it's your rare visit home, why don't you stay home and come back after the fifteenth day of the lunar month?"
It's no wonder the village chief was so strange. If it were other educated youth who went home for the New Year, they would have wanted to stay at home until the last day of the introduction letter before buying a ticket to return. But these three were different. They came back only half a month ago, and he deliberately didn't ask them and gave them a month.
"There's nothing to do at home. My parents and the others have to go to work. My brother and I might as well come back early."
Song Shuangshuang still repeated the reason she had given to Grandpa Jiang and the others before.
The main reason is that they really want to come back. There is nowhere to go in the winter, so they can only stay at home. They cannot go to the black market. It would be even more difficult to explain if they meet people from the steel factory. It would be better for them to come back and make money.
Having said that, the village chief naturally had nothing to say.
If you want to come back, then come back. The village is big and you can go up the mountain when you have nothing to do. It’s better than living in the alleys in the city.
Seeing Song Shuangshuang and the others brought some gifts, the village chief asked them to take them back. He thought they were just the younger generation in the village, and they were just here to pay New Year's greetings, so why did they bring any gifts?
The house has been built and he has returned home after spending the New Year. Work is not his responsibility, so what else can I ask him for?
When it comes to this issue, it's time for Song Shuangshuang to come into play.
Song Shuangshuang once again brought up the matter of her eldest brother's marriage, and said that the village chief had always taken good care of them. Take the incident with Haojia Village last year as an example. If the village chief had not supported them, how could they have taken revenge?
Besides, it's a new year, so we have to pay some protection money.
The village chief never said anything about Song Shuangshuang, and he and his wife sent the four of them out.
After returning to the house, the village chief's wife opened the things that several people had brought. Even though she had seen a lot of good things, she was still surprised.
Not to mention anything else, Song Zhiqing's elder brother brought a lot of wedding candy, and red dates were also good things. Even Tan Zhiqing and He Zhiqing sent a lot of good things.
"Old man, these things that Song Zhiqing and his friends brought must cost at least 10 yuan."
Thinking about their personalities, I guess the team leader and the accountant would also send an identical copy, as well as the other people in the village...
The village head’s wife felt that she could hardly count. How much money would this cost? It would be at least two months’ salary for a regular worker.
"Keep it." He knew that these kids were very smart and brave!
Otherwise, why would they occasionally not be seen in the village during the slack season? Especially when Tan Zhiqing was resting on weekends, the four of them would rarely be seen.
It's easy to imagine where they went.
It was just as the village head's wife thought. The captain and the accountant gave the same gift. The words were of course the same.
It’s not even noon yet after this round.
Thinking about her previous plan, Song Shuangshuang decided to go into the city.
"Everyone, let's go into the city~"
Since I have nothing to do anyway, I might as well go into the city today to earn some money. It will be a bit late if I go tomorrow morning because everyone has sold out.
At the mention of going into the city, Tan Anjing's eyes lit up.
She was almost suffocated at home during this period, and missed the time in Jiangjia Village very much. Especially this time, she brought a lot of things back home through her own efforts.
Of course, a round of questioning was inevitable. Fortunately, she asked Shuangshuang how to explain it in advance and fooled her family.
They left as soon as they said they would. They went into the house and dressed properly. Song Shuangshuang and Tan Anjing took the quilts they had used to cover their legs, got on their bikes and left.
It was still early, and they could still have a meal at the state-owned restaurant.
[Ding~ Mission updated, host, please sell 30 kilograms of Yuanxiao. ]
Song Shuangshuang: "???"
"Dog system, what did you say?"
Ask her to sell 30 kilograms of Yuanxiao? Not to mention how many people are willing to spend money to buy this Yuanxiao, she has to spend points to unlock it!
If she can't sell it here, she will lose money.
Eh? Wait a minute?
Song Shuangshuang took a look at the mission reward and her eyes lit up!
Regardless of whether this task can be completed, she plans to unlock the frozen area anyway, sooner or later. If the task is completed, she can earn a chance to draw a prize.
Her brother is so lucky! ! ! !
It's possible to win a house!
"Hey, system, you didn't hear anything just now. I accept this mission!"
Anyway, the system is not a human, so it shouldn’t mind what I just said.
System [……] Never mind. It won’t argue with the host.
It is a generous rule!
Song Shuangshuang didn't need to discuss this matter with her brother, as it had already been discussed long ago.
Seeing that the system deducted 50 points and only 222 points were left, Song Shuangshuang felt sad.
This was all the money she and Youlin had worked so hard to save! And she just spent it like that.
Pray that she can sell 30 kilograms of Yuanxiao today... otherwise she will be miserable.
Song Youlin had no idea what his sister was thinking, he only knew that the system had just refreshed the task.
In Song Youlin's opinion, this task was not difficult at all.
The system neither specifies the price nor to whom these Yuanxiao are sold to, it only specifies the quantity.
If they can't sell all of them in the city, they can just take them back to the village and sell them at a lower price. The villagers will definitely be willing to spend money to buy some back, even if it's just one for each family member.
Isn't this just giving them a chance to win a prize for free? !
The four of them went directly to the state-owned restaurant. Unexpectedly, there were so many people there that they waited in line for a long time before there was an empty seat. Even the dishes they wanted to eat were sold out.
Could only order a few other dishes.
Song Shuangshuang didn't care. They could bring food home to cook at night. She unlocked the frozen area today. When Tan Anjing and her brother returned, she could go into the space to eat hot pot with her brother.
She has been craving for pig brains and beef bone marrow for a long time!!
Finally she has the chance, she must eat to her heart's content!
