Chapter 519: Chapter 519 Not Knowing Many Characters

This time selling vests was also a test of his abilities.

Several classmates sold their T-shirts separately.

The main product was clothing from Yuntian Clothing Factory.

It had to be said, with the weather warming up, there were indeed buyers.

Over at Zhao Family Village Team,

Captain Zhao also received a reply from Zhao Tianlei, along with a package.

"What does Laosan say?" Mrs. Zhao couldn’t wait to have her husband open it and take a look.

Mrs. Zhao knew only a few characters.

She had to ask Captain Zhao to read the letter.

They had planted some seedlings, but there was still a plot of land yet to be finished.

"Laosan wants Xiao He to come back and pick you up, and he also asks if I would like to go to Capital City as well?"

Mrs. Zhao was taken aback, "What, Xiao He is to come back and pick me up? What about him?"

Although she didn’t know what job Laosan had in Capital City that made money, he wrote in his letter for Xiao He to come back and pick someone up.

This meant he couldn’t leave himself.

"You will find out when you go to Capital City. Xiao He will pick you up when the summer break starts."

Summer break?

"Dry some mushrooms, and bring them along when you go."

Mrs. Zhao had no objections.

They opened the package, and saw quite a few items inside—some peach crisps, milk powder, and various dried seafood.

"Brew a cup of milk powder to drink."

The farm work kept them busy nearly every day in the fields; the couple had grown quite worn.

Even though they ate eggs every day, the sun’s baking and their advanced age, combined with continuous labor, made life tough.

"Mom, I saw grandpa got a package."

Da Shu’s mother glanced at her youngest son; he was not in school yet. Now with the busy farming season, they made him work alongside them, pulling up seedlings.

"You think your grandparents will give you anything?"

Da Shu’s mother was too tired, having to cook for the whole family after coming back from the fields.

In the past, when they worked the fields, they could slack off, but now that each family had their own plot, everyone wanted to finish planting as soon as possible.

"We can harvest the wheat in a couple of days; then I will make buns for you to eat."

"Eat buns, eat buns."

At Brother Zhao’s house,

"Mom, grandpa received a package; it must be Uncle Tianlei and Little Aunt who sent it," Sanya excitedly told her mother.

Sister-in-law Zhao patted Sanya’s head; before Tianlei and his wife went to Capital City, her two little ones often played at Tianlei’s house, and during that time, her brother and sister had gained some weight.

"Study hard so you can go to college like your uncle and aunt, get a job, and buy whatever you want to eat."

The family had two daughters who were students; Daya was set to take the middle school entrance exam later in the year and attend school in town, possibly staying in a dormitory. Then there would be tuition fees, living expenses, and boarding fees to pay for.

Sister-in-law Zhao sighed deeply, so much money needed to be spent.

"Mom, is our wheat ready to harvest?"

With the busy farming season underway, the school had given them a few days off to go home and help.

"Yes, we’re going to cut it tomorrow," Sister-in-law Zhao immediately replied.

They grew the crops on Tianlei’s family’s land on the condition of giving them a share of the grains.

In Capital City,

The batch of T-shirts sold out quickly, and Zhao Gang had sold his as well.

He carried the vests on the bus, heading to the suburbs to sell them. After setting up at the market, he would go sell in the villages.

The villagers, now busy with the fields, had not been to town for a long time. Some still thought clothes required ration coupons; now that was no longer the case, and the prices were low.

Some families bought several vests in one go.

After Zhao Gang settled the account with Zhao Tianlei, he immediately mailed 100 yuan to his mother.
