Chapter 256: Did You Pick It Up?

Although there is not much to prepare for those younger brothers in the miscellaneous courtyard, he has no choice.

He also wanted to prepare more, and he wanted to prepare the same as the twenty-odd younger brothers, but he couldn't.

Because then they won't be able to explain to their families where they came from.

Ye Lin prepared fifty catties of white flour and one hundred catties of cornmeal for Uncle Jiang's family, there was no way, Uncle Jiang's family was too much.

Of course, this is just food, Ye Lin also prepared ten catties of pork, two chickens, five fish and ten catties of eggs.

In addition to these, there is also a pound of sesame oil and five pounds of peanut oil, which are enough for Uncle Jiang's family for the New Year, don't forget that Uncle Jiang's family also has them, these are just prepared for him by Ye Lin.

The twenty or so younger brothers are similar, because they are also a family with a large population.

Only these little brothers in the miscellaneous courtyard are much less, because Ye Lin prepared five catties of pork for each of them, and nothing else.

But for these five catties of pork, it is estimated that it will take a long time to explain when I go back, if Ye Lin gave them, like Uncle Jiang and the other twenty or so younger brothers, I don't dare to imagine what will happen.

Don't underestimate these five catties of pork, this is a lot, don't think that each person has four taels of meat every month, and they will eat it this month.

It's not like that, those with good conditions will be eaten, and those with bad conditions will basically sell the meat tickets.

Many families eat meat three times a year, during the Dragon Boat Festival in May, August 15 and the Chinese New Year, and meat is not eaten at other times.

Moreover, eating meat during the Dragon Boat Festival in May is basically for refining oil, and eating meat refined oil on this day is just enough to eat until the Mid-Autumn Festival on August 15.

It's the same with eating meat during the Mid-Autumn Festival, or for oil refining, you can eat oil for the New Year.

Not to mention the Spring Festival, the refined oil will be eaten until the Dragon Boat Festival, so five catties of pork is very important for a family, which is likely to be the oil they eat for a year.

Of course, after the fat meat is refined, the remaining oil can be wrapped in buns or dumplings, and eating it is called a fragrant.

Ye Lin ate it when he was a child, he hasn't eaten it since he was ten years old, there is no need at all, eating that thing, that is in the absence of a way, if there is a choice, who wants to eat it!

After Uncle Jiang left, Ye Lin also cleaned up and went back, and when he closed the door, he really closed the door.

Not only is the car repair shop closed, but the old items are no longer accepted, although many people may want to sell for some money for the New Year, but Ye Lin has no intention of collecting it again.

First, he wants to have a good New Year, and he doesn't want to let him have a bad New Year because of these things.

Second, this Ye Lin has already said that he will no longer accept old items during the Chinese New Year, so everything that should have been sold before has been sold.

As for those who came over at this time, either they didn't know it, or they were new ones, and this Ye Lin couldn't take care of it so much.

"Son, are you back?

"Mom, I'm closing the car repair shop, I'm ready for the New Year, and I'll open the door after the New Year." ”

"You can do this yourself, you don't have to tell me. ”

"Hey!"

As for what Ye Lin was doing outside, Li Ran asked from the beginning, but now he doesn't even ask.

She knows her son too well, if he wants to tell you, you will tell you even if you don't ask, but if he doesn't want to tell you, it's useless for you to ask.

Either just say a few words to deal with the past, or just tell a lie, and in this case, let him say something.

"By the way, Mom, tomorrow will be the New Year, do we have to clean our house well?"

"Well, you really need to clean it well, but you don't have to worry about this, just have me, your sister and Xiaoying. ”

Li Ran never let Ye Lin interfere in the work at home, fortunately Ye Lin is not an idiot in life, otherwise it is estimated that he will not even be able to take care of himself.

There are many such things in later generations, many parents are used to their children, do not let their children do anything, and when their children enter society, they are an idiot in life.

Not to mention laundry and cooking, and not even knowing where to go to buy groceries, what would it be like for such a person to enter society.

If Ye Lin hadn't been reborn, it was estimated that he would have been used to giving the same to those people in later generations by Li Ran.

"Well, well, I'll go buy New Year's goods tomorrow! ”

"This is okay, I will leave the cost to you, and we will do the rest. ”

Mother's words, how awkward it sounded in Ye Lin's ears.

It's as if he's a loser, and he doesn't do anything else if he only knows how to spend money.

"What about my sister and Zhai Ying?" Ye Lin finished talking to his mother, and after looking around, he didn't see anyone.

"I heard that the supply and marketing cooperatives came with a batch of sesame paste, and your sister went to buy it. ”

"Uh! Mom, we don't seem to be short of that, right? And the sesame sauce sold by the supply and marketing cooperatives is basically like that, and it is dry and skimmed. ”

"I know, but son, we don't eat it at home, others eat it! Many people can't buy it if they want to!"

"Ugh!"

Hearing his mother say this, Ye Lin understood that this was not to buy it for his own family, but for others.

You must know that sesame paste can only be bought during the New Year's holidays, and it is also rationed, and each household is supplied with one tael, that is, 50 grams, every three festivals (Spring Festival, May Day, and National Day).

Of course, there are other supplies during the Spring Festival, such as tea, one or two low-grade teas, and since five or nine years, tea has been classified as "national second-class materials", which is rare in the market.

In addition to these, there are two taels of coarse vermicelli, one tael of vermicelli, half a tael of peppercorns, half a tael of large ingredients, half a tael of fungus, half a tael of yellow flowers, and half a tael of alkaline noodles, all of which are supplied by household.

Not only that, peanuts and melon seeds are tasted once a year.

When the Spring Festival comes, each household will be supplied with half a catty of peanuts (including skin) and two taels of melon seeds (cooked).

It was not until six or five years, that is, this year, that each household was supplied with half a catty of peanuts and two taels of melon seeds every year, and each person was provided with half a catty of peanuts and two taels of melon seeds.

I guess my sister ran over to buy it for this!

Who can be like Ye Lin's family, others taste peanuts and melon seeds once a year, and their family continues all year round.

【】 Sesame paste, sesame oil, peanut oil is never lacking.

Even the tea is the same, this is not talking about space tea, of course, this tea has nothing to do with him, because the tea leaves are all from his master's house.

As for the rest, not to mention, a family that doesn't even lack meat can lack anything else.

For those living in this era, winter is the saddest, since the 60s when vegetables were officially classified as "national second-class commodities", residents have been supplied with tickets.

Those who have an official household registration in Dì Dū are provided with two taels of fresh vegetables per day, and there is no limit to the variety of vegetables, but basically potatoes, radishes and cabbage, but potatoes are the majority.

In addition, a small number of green onion tickets are also issued, and ticket holders can purchase a small amount of green onions, ginger, garlic, etc.

This onion ticket is mainly arranged by the neighborhood committee, and the focus is on taking care of the families of the martyrs of the grassroots revolutionary army.

Not to mention green onion tickets, many people are reluctant to buy vegetable tickets in their hands, because there is no money, many people go to buy pickles or pickles.

said that Cao Cao Cao arrived, and when Ye Lin and his mother were talking about Ye Qi and them, three girls came from outside.

It seems that they are quite happy, and they are estimated to have a good harvest.

"Hey, brother, why did you come back so early today?" Ye Qi seemed to have discovered a new world.

"The garage was closed, and I came back. ”

"It's closed, why is it closed?"

"Closed for the New Year!"

"Uh! Scared me, I thought you were out of the garage?"

"What do you want?" Ye Lin flicked on Ye Qi's head.

"Oops!" Ye Qi snorted painfully, and then said to Li Ran: "Mom, my brother beat me." ”

"Oh, yes? when?"

"Ugh!"

Hearing her mother's words, Ye Qi still didn't understand what it meant, that is, she didn't see it, and she was obviously shielding her younger brother.

But she doesn't have a temper at all, who made her a mother!

Li Ran's reaction, Zhai Ying and Li Ting had already seen it, so they also didn't see it.

"By the way, what did you all buy?" Li Ran diverted the topic.

"Auntie, we bought a lot, there is sesame oil, sesame paste, and vermicelli, and the fans are ......" Li Ting hurriedly reported the things she bought.

"Hmm! Go back and send it to a few more difficult ones in the courtyard. Li Ran looked at Li Ting when he said this.

This kind of work of delivering things, of course, will not let Ye Lin go.

And Li Ran is not sent by everyone, the people she wants to send are not only more difficult at home, but also better for others.

For example, if it is a person like Hu Laojiao, no matter how difficult their family is, Li Ran will not send it.

"Oh, got it. ”

These things can only be sent out, their family has all of them, and they don't need them at all, as for Li Ting's family, they have already sent them.

Not only Li Ting's family, but even Zhai Ying's family and Grandpa Du's Ye Lin have sent them, so these things can only be sent to those more difficult families in the miscellaneous courtyard.

"Alright, you talk, I'll go cook. Li Ran stood up and said.

"Auntie, I'll help you. Zhai Ying hurriedly said.

"Good. ”

In this family, Zhai Ying can already take charge of herself, let's put it this way! If Li Ran is not at home, then the work of cooking will fall on her.

As for Ye Qi and Li Ting, these two girls let them fight and cook, even if they dare to do it, no one dares to eat it!

In Ye Lin's words: I don't dare to eat the food cooked by the two of you, I'm afraid of food poisoning.

Just as Li Ran was about to walk to the door, he suddenly turned around and asked, "Son, what do you want to eat today?"

"Whatever. ”

"Oh, then I'll do whatever I want. ”

"Good. Ye Lin is never picky about what he eats, he can say what he eats, and even says what his mother does.

"Mom, you're too biased, aren't you?, why don't you ask me what I want to eat?" Ye Qi asked dissatisfiedly.

Unexpectedly, Li Ran glared at her and said, "Ask you what you do, you will eat whatever you do!"

"Uh!" Ye Qi was stunned for a moment and asked, "Mom, did you pick it up?"
