Time flew by and it was already the end of July. It happened to be Sunday again, the 15th day of the sixth lunar month. Mu Yi's phone rang at noon. He took out his phone and saw that it was an unfamiliar number 15984847777.

Whose number is this? It's quite special. So I picked up the phone. A somewhat excited voice came from the phone: "Guess who I am?"

When he heard it, it was Jin Lily's voice. Mu Yi thought to himself, oh, it turned out to be Jin Lily who bought the mobile phone, and this number should be her phone number. Otherwise, how could she be so excited? And the voice on the phone was very quiet.

There was no noisy sound, let alone the sound of a car horn. It was obviously not a call from a public phone.

"Who are you? Did you type the wrong number?"

"That's right. Are you Mr. Muyi?"

Mu Yi pretended to be surprised and said: "Ah! How do you know my name? Tell me, what is your purpose?"

Jin Lily didn't know that Mu Yi was teasing her on purpose. Seeing Mu Yi being so "scared", she burst out laughing.

"Okay. Okay. I won't tease you anymore. I'm Jin Lily. I just bought a new mobile phone today and got a phone card. Now I'm standing on the roof of my mother-in-law's house alone making a call to you. You

What are you doing?"

"I didn't do anything. I just washed the clothes. Why did you suddenly buy a phone?"

"What do you mean by 'buying a phone all of a sudden?' Aren't you happy that I bought a phone?"

"I'm happy! Of course I'm happy. It's much more convenient to contact you this way. It's just that it feels a bit sudden and a bit strange."

"Idiot. Don't be surprised. The countryside has informed me that I will go to work tomorrow."

"Ah! Go to work tomorrow? August 1st?"

"Yes. The house in the countryside has been repaired. The beds, desks and chairs have all been put up."

"Oh. Are your things ready?"

"What are you preparing?" Jin Lily felt that Mu Yi's question was a bit confusing.

"Is this what you need to prepare when you go to work at the township government?"

"Don't you just go to work directly? Do you still need to prepare something?"

Mu Yi thought: Oh my god! Who is this Golden Lily? She doesn’t even know what she needs to prepare for work. Even if she is young and ignorant and has no social experience, don’t her parents know to remind her to prepare something?

"Is your home ready for you?"

"Home? What are you talking about? Why can't I understand you?"

When Mu Yi heard this, she felt anxious. She had to go to work tomorrow. It was already noon, and she still had some time. She had to hurry up and help this "little idiot" prepare things. Otherwise, she would have to go to the township government tomorrow.

I slept on a bare wooden bed and drank the northwest wind.

"Forget it. Forget it. I can't explain it clearly to you on the phone. Come out of your mother-in-law's house quickly and wait for me in front of the Agricultural Bank of China."

Mu Yi picked up his "salary card", quickly went downstairs, ran out of Wuqu Street, stopped a man-powered three-wheeler, and rushed to the Agricultural Bank of China. In fact, he had no savings over the years. Originally, his salary was not much.

It's not high. After excluding living expenses, study expenses, and favors, the remaining money was almost spent on "drinking and playing cards with friends" some time ago. Fortunately, after meeting Jin Lily, I changed from the "drinking and playing cards" "team"

"He slowly withdrew. Together with his salary for July, it was almost a thousand yuan. This was all his "savings".

When Mu Yi rushed to the door of the Agricultural Bank of China, Jin Lily was already waiting there anxiously. Because her mother-in-law's house was right behind the Agricultural Bank of China, very close.

Seeing Mu Yi get off the tricycle, Jin Lily hurriedly greeted him: "Why did you ask me to wait here?"

Mu greeted Jin Lily and walked into the bank. "Let's go and get some money."

"Withdraw money? What are you doing with it?"

"Get it and use it?"

Jin Lily followed Mu Yi to the bank.

Fortunately, there were not many people withdrawing money from the bank at this time. Mu Yi quickly withdrew all the 1,000 yuan.

Jin Lily saw Muyi standing at the bank window counting money. She quickly asked: "What did you do with the money?"

"It works."

"Are you going to catch a gift and eat nine big bowls?"

"No, let's go. You'll know right away if you follow me."

The two of them left the bank. Mu Yi asked Jin Lily: "You are going to work tomorrow. How are you going to go?"

"They said that there is a van at the bus station at 8 o'clock every morning that goes to Jinshan Township. There is a "Chengguan-Jinshan" route sign on the front of the bus. You have to go a little earlier. The master will leave when the number of customers is full.

.I arrived too late and couldn’t catch a ride, so I had to wait until he returned to the county town from Jinshan Township after lunch, and then transfer to the city after filling up the train again.”

"What if I can't make it? What if I'm not satisfied after lunch?"

"I don't know about that. They didn't say anything. But how could I miss it? Just go there earlier."

"This is a bit suspenseful. But forget it, I'll think of something about the car problem later. Let's talk about the stuff first. Are you going to have quilts?"

"No."

"If you don't prepare a quilt, are you going to sleep on a bare bed?"

“Won’t the township government make preparations?”

"Oh, just dream."

"Nothing is prepared except for the quilt. Are you ready to wash your face and brush your teeth?"

"No."

"Where's the stove?"

"No."

"Where's the kitchen knife and cutting board?"

"No."

…

Mu Yi took out the note pad and pen he carried with him, and then made a long "shopping list" for Jin Lily. From bedding such as quilts, to daily necessities such as stoves, and finally to nail clippers,

There are dozens of kinds of small items such as essential oils and mosquito coils.

"Do you need to prepare so many things?" Jin Lily looked at Mu Yi listing so many things and felt a little incredible.

"Well. Based on my experience, that's pretty much all I can think of."

The two first went to the "Fangfang" bedding store at the intersection to buy things.

"Boss, come and buy two sets of sheets and quilt covers, and two beds of cotton. One of them should be extra thick. They are both 1.5 meters by 1.8 meters."

"I want it."

"Buy another pillow and two pillowcases. Give me a discount on all prices."

"I'll definitely give you a discount. You seem to be friends with our niece."

"Who is your niece?"

"Shunhe Town Chu Furong."

"Oh. It's Chu Furong, a land officer from Shunhe Town who joined the workforce in 2000."

"Yes."

"Hahaha. Thank you then."

"You're welcome. Just take care of your business from now on."

"I don't buy this often. I will take care of your business from now on. I'm afraid I'll buy something when I'm getting married."

"Hahaha. I have to have it. I have to have it."

Mu Yi's words made the landlady laugh.

However, after Mu Yi carefully inspected some of the samples brought out by the landlady, he felt that the quality was a bit poor, so he frowned.

"Boss, do you have anything with better quality here?"

"By the way. You are Furong's friend. Let me tell you the truth. The quality of the quilt covers I wholesale here is indeed a bit average. If you want better quality, I suggest you buy the twill cloth I have here.

, and then I will sew it for you. With a little care, the quality of the cloth and sewing are guaranteed. Even if it shrinks after washing, it will not affect its use."

"shrink?"

"It's like this. All pure cotton fabrics will shrink to a certain extent after washing. If you sew to the right size, it is appropriate to install the cotton for the first time, but after washing it once, it will

It can't be put on. Even if it is put on reluctantly, it is rolled up. And I will use the best zipper for you."

"Okay. I just listen to you and make it for me quickly. I will come to pick it up in the afternoon."

"In the afternoon, I can only make one set for you. I can't make two sets."

"then what should we do?"

"Well, I'll make a set first. You can use it first. I'll make another set in two days. You can come and get it. Do you want it?"

"Okay. That's settled then."

Jin Lily chose the color she liked. Mu Yi quickly took out the money and paid.
