Chapter 47 The Envy of Watches

The next day, Li Xingxing slept until the sun was noon.

Although she was extremely lazy, no one was talking about it, and Mrs. Li even gave her a bowl of cabbage noodles for breakfast.

It was the noodles they brought back, with an egg fragrance.

Li Xingxing was wearing cotton shoes. When he went out to brush his teeth, he saw a slew of ice ridges hanging under the eaves.

It hangs down long, thick on top and pointed on the bottom, crystal clear.

The ridges of the ice that the sun shines are melting, dripping, and those that are not shining are very firm.

Old Man Li knocked down the ice edges with a bamboo pole. When he turned around, he saw his granddaughter and said, "Xingxing, I will deliver the bicycles to your uncle later and give them the things from each family. Your grandma has packed them up and you will deliver them to them in person. You said that people are soft-hearted and have short-handed, so let them remember your benefits."

Li Xingxing said, "Just go, mom, I'm afraid of the cold and don't want to go out."

The main reason is that there are too many people in the nine uncles' family and they cannot recognize them. It seems too embarrassing to not know what to shout when they meet.

Nine uncles, nine aunts, more than thirty cousins ​​who work in towns, thirty cousins ​​and forty or fifty cousins ​​of all sizes and cousins ​​of all sizes.

The Li family is lush and leaves, it’s terrible to think about it!

Although there are only nine uncles living in Dalizi Village, nine aunts and ten cousin-in-laws with rural household registration, and fourteen cousin-nephews, a total of forty-two, it is enough to make Li Xingxing recognize his scalp numb.

After all, I have never seen it before.

Fortunately, they have a tradition of dividing their families and basically don’t live together, otherwise cooking alone would be a troublesome thing.

Old Man Li smiled and said, "You have to go out for a walk, don't be bored."

"Okay!"

Li's grandson's affairs were not concerned about his grandchildren and always treated his sons fairly. Each family had four sausages, two kilograms of pork, and two frozen duck legs. The rest was not distributed to them. He also took the same portion of bacon and handed it to Old Man Li: "Send it to your brother."

Li Xiuhong and Li Xingxing gave Li Dazhu bicycles and meat.

"Meat! It turns out to be meat!" My aunt hugged her and wanted to kiss her!

Li Dazhu's family had only one young daughter-in-law who missed the opportunity to enter the city, not a town household registration. Li Xingxing called her sister-in-law Fang, and lived with her three children, who were five years old, three years old and two years old, with her in-laws. They stared at the things that were delivered to her.

Meat! Meat!

I was so excited that I almost fainted.

They have been almost three months old and have no idea of ​​the meat.

The big house has long been separated, and the hardest thing in life is their family. They work as a worker in the mine alone, and receive a monthly salary of 36 yuan and a 45 kilogram of food supply, but they have to support a family of five, and they have to make careful calculations every year.

The three children are young and can't do anything.

Sister Fang is not in good health, has a bad year, and she doesn’t earn enough work points to earn by herself, so she always needs the subsidy of Li Dazhu and his wife.

Otherwise, I can't get through at all.

Fortunately, Li Dazhu's other three sons and daughter-in-law all have urban household registrations and jobs, and even children have urban household registrations. They don't have to worry about food at home, and their lives are still abundant, so they don't care much about these things.

There is a shortage of food in urban and rural areas, and it is even more difficult for the countryside. Li Dazhu's subsidies are definitely limited.

Sister Fang held Li Xingxing's hand to express her gratitude, but suddenly found the watch on her wrist and couldn't help but exclaim: "Watch! Xingxing, have you bought a watch? It looks so beautiful!"

It immediately attracted the attention of their whole family, and their eyes were full of envy.

Li Dazhu is no exception.

It is rare for people who own watches in the village.

Then, at the homes of eight uncles below, Li Xingxing received the same envy, which almost made her confused.

It's not a big diamond ring, is it that strange?
