Chapter 82 Son, if you say that, don’t I have any face?
"No need! You don't have to worry about the clothes we wear in winter. I have already prepared them."

This made Li Aimin even more surprised, but he didn't think about the leather jacket, but thought that Li Jiayi still had cotton tickets in his hand.

"Okay, son, you are great. I thank you on behalf of your grandparents, your uncle and aunt."

"Dad, this is boring. Isn't this what I should do?" Li Jiayi shrugged.

Li Aimin smiled, then changed his smile and said, "Son, you have several watch tickets here. Dad wants to exchange for a watch. What do you think?"

"Dad, it's just a watch ticket. If you need it, you can use it. But are you sure you can get a watch in exchange?"

"Why can't you change it?"

Li Jiayi asked helplessly: "Are you sure Mom will give you money to replace your watch?"

"Uh! This..." Li Aimin didn't know what to say, because he knew very well that Ye Xin would not give him money to change the watch.

At this moment, Li Aimin looked towards Li Jiayi.

Li Jiayi knew what was going on and said quickly, "Dad, don't look at me. I don't have any money."

If someone else said this, they would definitely believe it, but Li Aimin would not believe it.

"Son! Dad is not asking you for money, Dad is borrowing it. I will pay you back as soon as I have money."

Li Jiayi curled his lips and said, "Dad, when you have money, my son will probably go to the supply and marketing cooperative to make soy sauce."

"You little rascal, how can you talk like that!" Although Li Aimin said this, he knew very well that his son was right.

"Okay, Dad, let's put it this way. Doesn't your comrade-in-arms need a bicycle ticket? Consider it as me lending you the money for the bicycle ticket. As for the rest, you have to figure it out yourself."

"Hehehe, thank you son, don't worry, I will pay you back as soon as I have money."

Li Jiayi was speechless. It was worse than expecting money to fall from the sky than expecting his father to pay him back!
But he won't say this out loud, Dad doesn't want to save face! It's almost enough.

He has already said everything he needed to say, and it would be a bit too much to say more.

"Okay, I'll wait for you to pay me back." Li Jiayi left a Phoenix bicycle ticket and those premium cotton tickets, and collected the rest.

As for cigarette and alcohol coupons, food coupons and the like, he did not take them out because he was afraid of scaring Li Aimin.

"Son, wait."

"What's wrong again?"

"Leave one ticket each for the watch, sewing machine and radio," said Li Aimin.

"No, Dad, what are you going to do?" Li Jiayi asked speechlessly.

"Isn't your uncle's son getting married? Let me see if he needs another ticket."

"Dad, I don't have any problem exchanging these tickets. I think we should just forget it!" Li Jiayi didn't want any problems to arise.

Although he exchanged these tickets with others and there was no problem with their origin, he still didn't want to be too conspicuous.

After all, the way he got these tickets was not so fair. Although they were exchanged, they were obviously not equal.

"Oh son, I know what you mean, but don't worry, you can definitely rest assured about your uncle."

Li Jiayi looked at his father in surprise, because he had never said such certain words before!
It seems that his comrade-in-arms has no problem with his character. In that case, it would be okay to give him a few tickets.

"Okay! There's no choice for watch tickets, you can buy any of them, the same goes for radio tickets, and there are Imperial and Honeybee brand sewing tickets, which one do you want?"

"Whatever. I can see it."

"That's fine."

A ticket for a Didu brand sewing machine, a ticket for a watch, and a ticket for a radio.

Of these three types of tickets, the sewing ticket is the most expensive, 60 yuan a ticket, the watch ticket is 50 yuan, and the cheapest is the radio ticket, 40 yuan a ticket. Of course, this is the price in Pigeon City, but it is basically impossible to buy these tickets at this price.

It’s not that no one is selling them, but that you can’t get them. Even if there are one or two, it’s not your turn!
Not to mention others, even Li Jiayi, who often goes to the Pigeon Market, has not met anyone selling these tickets so far.

Of course, it is easy to buy these tickets directly. You can just go to the black market and buy them.

However, the prices on the black market are not as cheap as those in the pigeon market. A bicycle ticket here can be sold for more than 100 yuan.

Even sewing plane tickets can be sold for hundreds of dollars. They are easy to buy and naturally the price is very attractive.

"Son, how much are these tickets?"

"Dad, just let him decide how much to give! It doesn't matter how much." Li Jiayi shrugged and said.

"Okay then! Give him the tickets you need later, and I'll give you the ones you don't need."

"Ok!"

After Li Jiayi returned to the room, he put the tickets away. Just as he was about to lie down and have a rest, he heard his mother's voice from the yard.

"Son, come out and eat."

"Oh! Here we come."

Li Jiayi quickly stood up and went to the yard. It was already getting dark at this time.

Although it is just the beginning of autumn, the days are not that long anymore. It used to be bright at 7 or 8 o'clock, but now it gets dark at 6 o'clock.

Seeing Li Jiayi coming out, Ye Xin hurriedly said, "Go wash your hands quickly, dinner will be served soon."

"Okay mom."

Li Jiayi washed his hands, dried them with a towel, and went to the main room. At this time, his father also took his large enamel pot aside.

Clear out the round table.

"Dad, we think we're having chicken noodle soup tonight, so we don't need such a big place."

"Oh, is it?"

"Yeah!" Li Jia nodded.

Hearing him say this, Li Aimin brought the large enamel pot over again.

Looking at the small broken leaves floating in the large enamel pot, Li Jiayi said helplessly: "Dad, why don't you buy some good tea leaves? Every time you drink a mouthful of tea leaves, you will see the foam."

"What do you know? This is a high-quality product and many people can't afford it." After saying that, he took a sip comfortably.

Li Jiayi curled his lips and said if you are reluctant to buy it, just say it directly, no matter how finely it is crushed, it is still tea foam.

"It's time to eat." Mom came in carrying a large enamel basin filled with chicken soup noodles.

The eldest sister was holding a few bowls and a pair of chopsticks in her hand.

In this era, enamel basins have many uses. They can be used to wash one’s face, wash clothes, knead dough, and serve rice.

Of course, this does not mean one, but two for separate use, namely kitchen use and washing use.

To be honest, Li Jiayi doesn't like to use an enamel basin to knead dough, because the enamel basin is relatively light and he always has to lift it up when kneading the dough. He has to hold it with one hand and knead the dough with the other.

He still prefers to use a ceramic basin to knead the dough, because the ceramic basin is heavier and he doesn't have to worry about carrying it when kneading the dough.

So although they have enamel basins in their kitchen, they are only used to hold rice.
