Chapter 29

The next day, the two got up early, packed their things, checked out and went to the police station. But they didn't see Director Zhang. The police on duty said that Director Zhang and his team had not slept all night and were investigating the case overnight, so they asked them to come later.

Meng Wanqiu and his friend had to leave and went to the state-owned hotel yesterday to buy six big meat buns, a few fried dough sticks and two tea eggs. After filling their stomachs, they went to the supply and marketing cooperative that they didn't visit yesterday.

The supply and marketing cooperative in the county city is really not comparable to the one in the commune. As soon as Meng Wanqiu entered, she was dazzled. There were food, drinks, toys, and things to use, all neatly arranged on the shelves and in the transparent cabinets.

From beginning to end, she bought a lot of things, most of which were bought for her family.

First, the things that the women in the family like, such as soap, chopsticks, tooth powder, wool and so on. This kind of tooth powder is in white packages with a red peony pattern printed on it.

Meng Wanqiu has used it several times. It was bought by Meng Fengdong when he came home. It was cool and comfortable to use.

With Meng Wanqiu around, food is indispensable. She bought a pack of Jiangmi Tiao, Taosu, Guodanpi and so on. Because Meng Wanqiu was curious about the soda in glass bottles, Pei Xingzhi took two bottles for her without hesitation, one bottle of orange flavor and one bottle of grape flavor.

At the same time, Pei Xingzhi also took two bottles of canned fruit, which made the children next to him envious and immediately asked his mother for them. Canned fruit is not cheap, and a young mother who came to the supply and marketing cooperative just to buy some seasonings could not afford it.

After refusing, the child started crying on the spot. The young mother probably felt ashamed and dragged the child out directly. The people around her just watched for fun and urged the young mother to buy it for her child.

Meng Wanqiu and Pei Xingzhi looked at each other, smiled, and ignored this little episode and continued to shop.

In the end, they did not forget to buy a few special batteries for flashlights. They spent more than half of their money before they stopped.

Afterwards, the two went to the high school in the county to visit Meng Fengdong who was studying there.

Meng Fengdong is sixteen years old this year. He passed the county high school entrance exam in the second half of this year. He only goes home once a week. Since he has come to the county, Meng Wanqiu must go to see his brother.

When they arrived at the school gate, the students had already started their classes. The school was empty. It was mid-September and the temperature was a bit cool in the morning. The old man at the school gate moved a reclining chair outside and lay on it to bask in the sun comfortably.

Pei Xingzhi and Meng Wanqiu walked over and knocked on the iron gate next to them, making a noise to wake up the old man.

The grandfather opened his wrinkled eyes, looked at the two people, and frowned, "Who are you? What's the matter with you coming to school?"

Pei Xingzhi: "Grandpa, we are parents of students. We finally came to the county to see our children."

The grandfather continued to frown, and a "chuan" character was squeezed out between his eyebrows, "You two are so young, can you give birth to a high school student?"

Pei Xingzhi couldn't help but hold his forehead, why is this grandfather's brain circuit so strange.

Meng Wanqiu was also helpless by the words of the grandfather, and directly said, "Grandpa, we are here to see my younger brother, his name is Meng Fengdong, and he is in Class 3 of Grade 1."
