"Uncle Jiang, you just take it, I know you're here to help, but don't forget, you haven't gone out to make money in the past two days, besides, even if you don't need it, Uncle Chen needs it." ”

"This ......"

Uncle Jiang was very embarrassed, because what Ye Lin said was right, he didn't need it, because he could follow Ye Lin, but it was different from Lao Chen, who came with him.

"Old Jiang, you can't ask for this money. Uncle Chen shook his head at Uncle Jiang.

This Uncle Chen Ye Lin knows a little from Uncle Jiang that he is a building restorer, but in recent years, he has basically been idle at home, although the unit still pays a salary, but it is only two-thirds of the original.

It can't be helped, because there is nothing to fix them in the past few years.

At the same time, this Uncle Chen is also a scholar, and readers are more pedantic, this Ye Lin knows better than anyone else, especially in this era, to put it bluntly, it is fake Qinggao.

"Hmm. Uncle Jiang nodded, then turned back to Ye Lin and said, "You really can't ask for this money, you better take it back." ”

"Uncle Jiang......"

"Okay Ye Lin, so be it. ”

"But if you don't accept it, I won't be able to go!"

Hearing Ye Lin say this, Uncle Jiang frowned, thought for a while and said: "That's it, Ye Lin, I saw that your family has eaten white flour steamed buns in the past two days, so that means that you don't eat coarse grains, can you give us your coarse grains, of course, we don't ask for it for nothing, we pay for it." ”

"This one does. Uncle Chen also nodded beside him.

Although Uncle Chen is pedantic, he is very persistent in food, and besides, he is not asking for nothing, but spending money to buy it, so there is no problem.

"No problem. ”

Before Ye Lin could speak, Li Ran said a word first, and after speaking, he turned back to Ye Qi and said, "Go and take out our family's grain book, and then go to the supply and marketing cooperatives to buy the coarse grain back." ”

"Mom, my brother has already bought our family's coarse grain. ”

"Uh!" Li Ran paused for a moment and asked, "When did it happen?"

"It's been a while. ”

Li Ran glanced at Ye Lin, Ye Lin smiled bitterly and nodded, he bought the coarse grain at home for the past two months and gave it to Chen Jing in two parts.

"Teacher Li, forget it if you don't. Uncle Jiang still didn't understand what was going on, and hurriedly said.

"Wait, I'll get you coarse grain. ”

After saying that, Ye Lin ran out, because he remembered a person, that is Grandma Liu, because of their family's help, Grandma Liu basically doesn't need food, so there should be a lot of coarse grain on Grandma Liu's food book that has not been touched.

And last time, Grandma Liu also told Ye Lin to let him buy the grain back from the grain book and give it to whoever he needed, but Ye Lin forgot about this when he was busy.

When Ye Lin came to the middle courtyard, Grandma Liu was basking in the sun in the courtyard.

"Grandma, I'm here. ”

"Oh, it's my eldest grandson! Grandma Liu patted a chair next to her.

"Grandma, I won't sit down, that's the case, I'll take some of the food book, don't you still have a lot of food in the food book that you haven't bought? I want to buy it for the needy. ”

"Ah, that's a good thing, eldest grandson, you wait, grandma will go and get it for you." ”

"Hmm. ”

Although the old lady has lived a lifetime alone, she is very helpful, whether it is someone in the courtyard or someone outside, she will help if she can, of course, that is talking about the past, and now she can take care of herself, and she can't help others anymore.

I can't help others in action, but it's okay in other places, such as food, and the elderly sometimes prefer to eat less than see the children in the courtyard not have enough to eat.

Grandma Liu quickly came out of the house, handed the grain book to Ye Lin and said, "Eldest grandson, give it, go and buy all the grain." ”

"Well, I know grandma, oh yes, my mother cooks a lot of dinner, you don't have to make dinner, I'll bring it to you later." ”

"No, I'm not very hungry at night, just make some porridge later. ”

"Grandma, it's all done, you don't have to trouble again, that's it, I'll send it to you later. After saying that, Ye Lin ran away.

Seeing Ye Lin's back, Grandma Liu smiled and shook her head, there are dozens of children in the entire compound, and her favorite is Ye Lin, even if Ye Qi can't, of course, it may be because Ye Lin was brought up by her.

But this is not right, Ye Qi was also brought up by Grandma Liu, at that time, Li Ran had to go to work, Ye Qi and Ye Lin had no one to take them, and Grandma Liu took the initiative to take care of him and Ye Qi.

At that time, both of them were still young, although Ye Lin was sensible, he didn't want to stay in one place all the time, he always wanted to run out to play, and Ye Qi was the same.

At that time, although Grandma Liu's health was better than now, she couldn't see two children running east and west, so she had no choice, so she tied the legs of the two people with ropes and tied them to the pillars in the yard.

Ye Qi may not remember it, but Ye Lin remembered it clearly, but he didn't blame Grandma Liu, because he knew that Grandma Liu was also for their good.

Ye Lin didn't go home, and went directly to the supply and marketing cooperatives with the grain book.

The aunts from the supply and marketing cooperatives all knew Ye Lin, and when they saw him coming, they greeted him and asked, "Second fool, why are you here?"

"Yes, I'm here to buy food. ”

"Haven't you already bought all the food?"

Everyone lives on the same street and knows each other, and they all know what the situation is, not to mention that they are doing this job, of course they know that Ye Lin's family has no food to buy this month.

"I bought it for Grandma Liu, this is the grain book. Ye Lin handed over the grain book.

The aunt took the grain book and looked at it, frowned and said, "Second fool, how much do you want to buy for Grandma Liu?"

"I bought it all except for the white noodles. ”

"Well, then you wait a minute, I'll go and tell the director. ”

Not long after this aunt went in, the director came out with the grain book, and when he saw Ye Lin, he said, "Second fool, you want to buy all the coarse grains in the grain book?"

"Yes, I bought them all. ”

"It's such a fool, this grain book bought five catties of coarse grain every month for the first eight months, and it is said that there are still ten catties left every month, but according to the latest ration, there are only ten catties of coarse grain per month, so the previous eight months can only give another five catties every month. ”

Before the new ration, everyone had fifteen catties of coarse grains and three catties of fine grains per month, and Grandma Liu bought three catties of fine grains and five catties of coarse grains every month, plus Ye Lin's family received some help, which was enough for Grandma Liu to eat.

So she should still have ten catties of coarse grain every month that she hasn't bought, originally Ye Lin still thought that Grandma Liu didn't buy grain in the past two months, plus the first eight months, there were 100 catties of coarse grain.
