Chapter 17 The Eve of Going to the Countryside (5)
When Lu Xiaoxiao came to the supply and marketing cooperative, she said to the salesperson: "Sister, I want five creams, ten clam oil, five pieces of soap and eight pieces of soap."
The salesperson said in a chatty tone while taking things: "Why do you buy so many things? Why didn't your adults come and let you, a child, come to buy so many things."
"Sister, I came with my aunts from the village. The aunts were a little tired from walking and sat and rested not far away. It is rare to come to the city from the village. The sisters and aunts in the village asked me to help buy some things. Unlike my sister, it’s good if you live in the city, and it’s convenient to have such a good job to buy things. I wish I could be like my sister when I grow up.”
When the other party heard her compliment, she immediately became enthusiastic, and said with a straight face: "It's all for the people." If she can lower the corners of her mouth and eyes, her credibility will be higher.
After paying the money and tickets, Lu Xiaoxiao told the salesperson that she would send the things to her aunt first, and then come to buy the rest.
She went to a place where no one was there, put her things in the space, and then went to the supply and marketing cooperative. This time she bought two lunch boxes and two enamel cups.
Lu Xiaoxiao saw that there were labor gloves without tickets and bought twenty pairs directly. She looked at the candles and matches and bought some without tickets.
She took the things and said goodbye to the salesperson, who also enthusiastically said that she would come to the city next time to play.
After an afternoon of shopping, Lu Xiaoxiao made herself exhausted, but she also fully understood how difficult it is to live in this age, and she almost put herself in danger just by shopping, a seemingly ordinary thing. .
Lu Xiaoxiao thought that she should change her previous concept as soon as possible, and let herself integrate into this era, instead of living here as a bystander.
Yes, before, Lu Xiaoxiao didn't feel that her behavior was any different from that of people of this era, she felt that she was already very cautious, but the reality told her that it was all because she was watching the sky from a well, and she was looking at things from her perspective. I don't know that in the eyes of others, she seems to be an exception.
Take what happened this afternoon as an example. Whose child is so old and has money and tickets to buy so many things, and she doesn’t look like a rich child in her clothes. I really don't know how to explain it a few times.
Lu Xiaoxiao felt a little depressed when she returned home. She suddenly felt very lonely. Although she was alone before wearing this body, she was accompanied by her grandpa who loved her when she was growing up. Even if grandpa was gone later, the familiar There are many traces of her and grandpa's life in the city, so I don't feel lonely.
She has always been alone in this strange world. The unrest of this era has completely aroused the fear hidden deep in her heart, fearing that if she is not careful, she will be doomed.
Lu Xiaoxiao took out a photo of her and her grandfather from the space, and looked at the loving grandfather with a smile on his face. Her tears could no longer stop pouring out of her eyes, dripping down on the photo. Why did God let her come here? ? Why did she have to bear all this? Crying and crying, I fell asleep without knowing it.
In her dream, she saw her grandpa smiling at her, the smile was still loving, and grandpa beckoned her to let her pass.
When Lu Xiaoxiao walked in front of her grandfather, she heard him say to her: "Grandpa's niece is suffering. Seeing that her little eyes are swollen from crying, grandpa feels sorry for you. My niece heard from grandpa that people have to go through many things in their life. You have passed many hurdles, as long as you are not afraid of difficulties and keep moving forward, God will never treat anyone badly, don’t think about many things if you don’t understand them, and follow your own mind, time will give you the answer.”
