Wearing eighty books, the little widow turns into a rich woman

Chapter 483 Chapter 484 ran away from our house

The next day, Lin Lan went to the old lady's house and gave the children clothes and red envelopes: "Congratulations, uncle!"

The old lady looked at her happily: "We thought it was just right to celebrate the New Year, but we didn't know that the little guy was in a hurry to come out to celebrate the New Year!"

Lin Lan said with a smile: "I heard from Xiangyang that the baby weighs eight catties, so I'm sure she'll love you just looking at it!"

The old lady thought about it and said, "My uncle told you not to eat too much after seven months, otherwise the child will grow too big and the mother will suffer."

Lin Lan nodded: "My mother told me too."

The old lady sighed: "Xiaoman's mother is not as sensible as your mother. She feels that I am reluctant to give her food, and I will give her those nourishing foods when she is about to give birth. She will suffer when the child is older."

Lin Lan comforted: "Don't take it to heart, Xiaoman is not a small-minded person and will understand you."

The old lady nodded: "If you are inconvenient, don't go to the hospital. When Xiaoman comes back from the hospital, you can come and see her."

"Yeah! I have to go to the store. If anything happens, you can go to the department store to find Xiang Yang."

"Okay, I'll prepare a chicken and give it to Xiaoman."

Lin Lan came out of the old lady's house and went to the pastry shop to look around. She saw Tong Xinglan and Yueyue making glutinous rice ball cores, so she went to the hot pot shop.

There was a lot of oil residue in the store. Lin Lan thought that the Chinese New Year was here, so she tried to make two flavors of glutinous rice dumpling cores. Unexpectedly, they were quite popular.

As soon as she entered the yard, Zhao Xiaohui called her to stop: "Xiaolan, let me tell you, the girl who was almost sold out last time ran away from our house again."

Zhao Xiaohui also became more western, wearing a purple-black plaid wool suit with a milky white sweater inside, black straight-leg pants, black shuttle-heel leather shoes, and her hair was cut into shoulder-length short hair. She looked more energetic than before.

Lin Lan remembered Wu Shufen's words, and frowned, "You mean Xu Xuefei?"

Zhao Xiaohui nodded and said, "That's her! My parents said that when they came out of your house and were about to wash their feet and go to bed, they heard someone knocking on the door. When they opened the door, they saw her acting like a beggar, which shocked them."

Lin Lan looked at her: "Didn't you say that she had been running away for several days? How come she found our house again last night?"

Zhao Xiaohui sighed and said sympathetically: "Her mother, the old man, took that man everywhere to look for her, so she hid in the mountains. For such an old girl, she hid in the mountains for several days before sneaking down the mountain to Dongshi. On her body. You only have a few cents, but you have no money when you cross the river by boat. Those who walk to Dongshi are so pitiful!"

Lin Lan nodded: "It's quite pitiful!" Fortunately, he knew how to resist, otherwise he would have jumped out of this fire pit and into another.

At this time, Wu Shufen also came out. Seeing that she already knew, she said to her: "Your father said to keep her to help in the store first, and then send her back after we are done, and wait until she has settled her family affairs." , if you want to continue to help here, let her come."

Zhao Xiaohui said worriedly: "Her stepmother is so powerful. Will it cause trouble for you if you go? If the matter is not resolved, it will blame our family."

Wu Shufen frowned and said, "What should we do? You can't watch a nice girl jump into the fire pit, right?"

Lin Lan thought for a moment: "Mom, parents are not allowed to do everything now, and her stepmother's nephew is like that. She can go to the town to find women cadres for help!"

Wu Shufen thinks this is also a solution: "After the New Year, we will take her to the town to find the Women's Federation."

Zhao Xiaohui said: "Yes, go to the women's director and see if her stepmother still dares to sell her."

Wu Shufen asked Lin Lan: "What are you doing here so early?"

Lin Lan: "Last time you moved here, you left the water heater in the east of the city. Xiangyang brought in a batch this time. I have been so busy these days that I forgot to tell you that the water heater has arrived." Zhao Xiaohui said happily: "That's great. It’s not convenient at all to take a bath without a water heater, so I’ll ask Guodong to come over.”

Wu Shufen gave her a reproachful look: "Look, it's only been so long, and I only want to use good things. I used to wipe my body with a pot of hot water before!"

"Hehe!" Zhao Xiaohui looked at her with a flattering smile and said, "It's too cold. With a water heater, your grandson won't be afraid of catching a cold when he takes a bath."

After they moved here, Lin Jun and others also moved here. Wu Shufen and his wife were reluctant to part with the chickens and ducks they raised in Lexing, but they still lived there.

Wu Shufen waved her hands repeatedly: "I'm too lazy to listen to you. If you want to pull me, just go there."

Lin Lan looked at her and smiled: "You yourself think the water heater is convenient to use, so what do you think the second sister-in-law is doing?"

Wu Shufen curled her lips: "I don't like her talking about Xiaogang and the others. I'm not an evil mother-in-law. If you like it, just tell me that I won't use it!"

"We have made a lot of glutinous rice balls. If you want to get them, go to the pastry shop and ask for Xinglan!"

"No, your sister-in-law made the brown sugar peanut one and the black sesame one in your store."

When Zhao Xiaohui and Lin Guodong came out, Lin Lan followed them back to Limin Road.

It’s the end of January and the beginning of February in a blink of an eye, and the Chinese New Year is just a few days away.

Lin Lan feels that business these days is even more popular than the clearance sales that merchants would do three to forty years later. The family is busy at the end of the year.

Starting from the 25th of the twelfth lunar month, the streets are already crowded with people. Children sit on their father's shoulders, holding candy figures, balloons of various shapes, and paper pinwheels, and happily go out to buy new year's goods.

On both sides of the street, there are people who make candy figures, people who crack sesame candy, people who make bubble tubes, people who make dragon beard cakes... all kinds of snacks pop up on the streets.

The bubble tube is to put the rice into the puffing machine, and after heating and puffing, it is made into a hollow "rice tube". It tastes very fragrant and crispy, melts in the mouth, and is more than one foot long. Children like it most.

Lao Li took Xiaodouzi to buy a urea bag, tied the bag tightly and ate slowly.

The dragon beard cake is made from wheat flour, maltose and other raw materials. The thin maltose strands are very obedient in the hands of the master, and a dragon beard cake is made with just one finger.

Lin Lan remembered that she had never seen Longxu Cake on the street again, so she went to buy some and came back to eat with everyone.

The dragon's beard cake is milky white in color, with many fine threads, and is loose in the mouth. Twist a piece of it and put it in your mouth. After eating it, you will have a sweet aftertaste...

Until the New Year, the streets were crowded with people everywhere, in front of stalls, in shops, department stores, and supply and marketing cooperatives.

This year, the 29th is the New Year's Eve. On the afternoon of the 28th, just after five o'clock, Lin Lan's clothing store and insoles were sold out.

In the department store, there are only some hair dryers, razors, electronic watches and watches left.

Li Xiangyang was worried that the four-speaker radio recorder and water heater would be sold out long ago, as were rice cookers, wall clocks and some small appliances.

The goods were gone. Tomorrow was New Year's Eve, and the store began to close down. Li Xiangyang and Lin Lan gave bonuses and new year's goods to the store manager and employees respectively.
