After returning to the dormitory, Lin Mo put his already packed luggage on his back, and then walked out of the dormitory carrying a bag filled with clothes and sundries.

After more than a month of conditioning and integration, Lin Mo's body has improved a lot. Now he can carry his own bedding without feeling too weak to lift it.

After leaving the school gate and coming to Wang Bai, Wang Bai naturally took the luggage that Lin Mo was carrying. Seeing that Lin Mo was carrying a small bag in his hand, Wang Bai also wanted to reach out and take it, but was rejected by Lin Mo.

"Cousin, I can take this myself. Your luggage is already very heavy."

"Momo, let me do it! You're not in good health!" Wang Bai became a little anxious when he saw Lin Mo refused.

But who is Lin Mo? If she doesn't want to do something, no one can change her mind. Seeing Wang Bo's insistence, Lin Mo didn't intend to pay attention to him. She walked around Wang Bo's outstretched hand and strode towards the bus stop, saying as she walked:

"Cousin, hurry up, we're going to miss the bus soon, and we still have to go to the department store!"

Wang Bai looked at Lin Mo who had already run far away, and followed him quickly with some helplessness.

After taking the bus to the department store, Lin Mo pulled Wang Bai off the bus. If she didn't have anything special and important, this would be her last time to come to the county town before school started.

So Lin Mo wanted to go shopping in the department store again to see if there was anything she needed and buy it all at once to avoid the hassle of running around again in a few days. Now that the weather was getting colder, she didn't want to go through the trouble of running around just to buy things.

Seeing Lin Mo pulling him to the department store, Wang Bai quickly said, "Momo, go shopping. I don't have anything to buy. Give me your bag and I'll help you watch it outside."

"Cousin, it's too cold outside. Even if you don't want to go shopping, you have to wait for me inside!"

After listening to Lin Mo's words, Wang Bai also felt that what Lin Mo said made sense, so he followed Lin Mo into the department store. The two found a secluded spot in a corner on the first floor to put down their things, letting Wang Bai watch the luggage while Lin Mo went shopping in the department store.

Following Lin Mo's habit, she went up to the third floor of the department store first. Looking at the layout which had not changed, Lin Mo thought that she still had a ticket for a radio, so she wondered whether she should buy a radio to take back.

But thinking that she was still saving money, Lin Mo gave up the idea and walked past the watch counter and the munitions counter. The things inside were the same ones she had seen before, but there was a new men's military coat on the munitions counter. Lin Mo then remembered that she still had two brand new women's military coats! Lin Mo silently remembered that she had to find them when she got home, as now was the time to wear them.

After walking a few steps further, Lin Mo came to the counter that sold cigarettes, alcohol, and tea. Looking at the Moutai on the counter, Lin Mo asked, "Comrade, how do I buy this Moutai?"

"Hello, comrade. This bottle of Moutai is eight yuan. You need a wine ticket." The teller at the counter selling cigarettes, alcohol and tea was a pretty girl. When Lin Mo asked her, she answered Lin Mo very politely

Seeing that the price of Moutai here was the same as that in the commune supply and marketing cooperative, Lin Mo continued to ask: "Comrade, how many bottles of this wine do you have? Can I buy some more?"

"Comrade, there is no limit on the amount of wine you can buy now. As long as you have enough wine tickets, you can buy it. But we only have four bottles of Moutai left. How many bottles do you want to buy?"

"Then I want all four bottles. Comrade, can you please pack them in a bag for me? I didn't bring a backpack with me today." When Lin Mo heard that there were still four bottles of Moutai, he excitedly said to the teller.

Seeing that Lin Mo was so sure, the teller packed the four bottles of Moutai that Lin Mo ordered without saying anything and handed them to Lin Mo. Lin Mo had already counted out the four wine tickets and 32 yuan, and handed the money over. Lin Mo was just about to leave with the money.

Then he remembered that he still had four wine tickets and ten cigarette tickets. Thinking that the New Year was coming soon and he didn't plan to stock up on Moutai in the future, Lin Mo's eyes swept around the tobacco and liquor counter. In the end, he spent another five yuan, twenty cents and six cents to choose two bottles of local brand liquor and four boxes of Daqianmen cigarettes for his uncle Wang Jianshe and cousin Wang Bai.

It's not that Lin Mo is stingy and doesn't want to buy them more expensive cigarettes and alcohol, it's really that Lin Mo is afraid that if the cigarettes and alcohol he buys are too expensive, they will not accept them.

The cigarettes and alcohol she chose were neither too cheap nor too expensive, and were just within the range of gifts that Wang Jianshe and his family could accept. After all, the New Year was coming soon, and it shouldn't be excessive for her, their niece, to give her uncle and aunt some New Year gifts, right?

After buying cigarettes and alcohol, Lin Mo went downstairs to the first floor. As for the second floor, she didn't plan to go shopping, as there were counters selling ready-made clothes, pants, and shoes, as well as counters selling fresh hair accessories, head flowers, and cosmetics.
She already has Liu Pan'er to help her make these things, which look better and save money, so Lin Mo doesn't plan to waste time on this floor. After all, Wang Bai is still waiting for her on the first floor!

When going down the stairs again, Lin Mo saw that there was no one around, so she used her body to cover the four bottles of Moutai into the space. Then she took the two bottles of wine and four packs of cigarettes she had just bought to find Wang Bai. After handing the things to Wang Bai, Lin Mo went to the first floor of the department store for a walk.

Lin Mo first bought several kinds of pastries commonly eaten during the Chinese New Year, a few pounds of roasted peanuts and melon seeds, and a few pounds of White Rabbit candies and fruit candies packaged in this era. Then Lin Mo went back to meet Wang Bai.

Lin Mo planned to divide these things into two parts, take half to her uncle Wang Jianshe's house as a New Year gift, and keep the other half at her own home. If any children came to pay New Year's greetings during the New Year, she could also give some to the children.

Taking the things, Lin Mo and Wang Bai took the bus to the county bus station. When they got on the bus and bought the ticket, they found that this bus was the one that Lin Wan'er's parents were riding.

Lin Mo took out some of the cakes from his own portion, and packed some White Rabbit milk candies and fruit candies to give to Lin Wan'er's parents when getting off the car, and wished them a happy new year in advance.

Lin Wan'er's family is well-off, so naturally they have no shortage of things like Lin Mo, but seeing Lin Mo's affection, she also feels that her daughter has made the wrong friends.

After leaving the commune station, Lin Mo still went to the state-owned restaurant to buy two meat dishes, preparing to take them to his uncle Wang Jianshe's house for a snack tonight. After all, he never brought any rations with him when he went to his uncle's house for a meal, so Lin Mo would buy one or two meat dishes from time to time to have a snack at his uncle's house. But afterwards, his aunt Lin Danniu would still give Lin Mo some local products or homemade side dishes as a return gift.

Anyway, no matter what others think, Lin Mo is still very happy that her uncle's family can get along with her in this way.
