The "little old mother" is almost recovering, and the work in the canteen is too heavy, so she goes to pack sesame candy. Sooner or later, when I was free, I would come to my daughter-in-law's house to see the children and talk to my in-laws.

After the old lady's burned hand was healed, she saw Sister-in-law Zhou's insoles, so she asked Sister-in-law Zhou to take some clothes, and she also gave the child insoles. The temperature in the room is high, and I can dry it overnight by leaning against the radiator.

The "little old mother" has been idle at home for more than half a year, and the cloth shoes made for the children can be worn until they are seven or eight years old, and the old lady will give the children insoles.

The old lady was ingenious, she embroidered flowers on the insoles for the children, and the two nieces were so happy that they showed off their flower insoles when they saw people.

Doing some work to see the children, the old lady's life is full, the time is easy to pass, the body gradually recovers, the weight rises, and the face returns to its former ruddy color.

Lanzhi saw that the old lady was willing to work, so she received some buckle work from the factory, and asked Sister-in-law Zhou and the two of them to do it, and everyone earned their own money.

The insoles Laneige is fine, and more than a dozen pairs can be made in one night with a sewing machine, and there is no need to use hand by hand.

Grandma Yoyo only accepts hand-accepted insoles, not made with sewing machines, generally only accepts a pair of insoles in two days, which can be sold for one yuan.

Making a buckle is more money than a handmade insoles, ten minutes to make a two-cent, a set of six, an hour can be done.

Laneige knew that her mother was good at needlework, and she used to be in the village, so she was looking for her buttons. Sister-in-law Zhou lives alone, and she thinks about it when she has nothing to do, and there are many tricks in the buttons.

It really made Laneige see it, the buckles made by the two of them are particularly exquisite, there are many tricks, and they do it quickly, without delaying the work at home, and each person can earn more than one yuan a day.

Sister-in-law Zhou is embarrassed, she gets a salary of 30 yuan a month from Laneige, and she eats and uses Laneige, and when she changes seasons, Laneige buys new clothes, and if she earns another 30 yuan a month, it is higher than the income from a job.

Sister-in-law Zhou said to Laneige: "Big sister, since I have received the salary you gave, I am the person you hired, and the money I earn should also be yours." ”

Lanzhi told her: "Eldest sister, you also know that the workers in Hantun Village are paid more than 80 yuan a month, and I only give you 30 yuan, which is too little. ”

Sister-in-law Zhou didn't think like this: "The workers recruited by Han Tun are all young and strong young people, and they can only earn more than eighty a month. I'm a man in my fifties, who eats, drinks, and wears, and is in my sixties a month, which is more suitable than them. ”

The old lady also persuaded her: "Sister-in-law Zhou, you just listen to Laneige, you are also in your fifties, and you have to save two pension money." You are different from me, my children and grandchildren are unreliable, and I still have a daughter, you have to rely on yourself when you are old.

I'll tell you, don't trust outsiders when you're old, you have to keep the money in your hands in prison, you have to eat and buy whatever you want, and you have to suffer if you don't have money. ”

The old lady said from the bottom of her heart, when she had money in her hand, she asked her grandson to return the bullet, and when there was no money in her hand, no one answered when she shouted to her throat.

Sister-in-law Zhou was grateful, and she was more attentive to her family, and even Laneige and Precious changed their clothes, and she took the initiative to wash them, which made Laneige embarrassed.

Actually, there is a washing machine at home, and it is easy to do laundry. It's just that Laneige coaxes the two children to sleep at night, and when she is very tired, she often puts the children to sleep, and she also falls asleep.

Sister-in-law Zhou said to Laneige: "Big sister, we have a washing machine at home, and I don't have to do it, what are you embarrassed about." ”

When Laneige gave her the money that the old lady earned, she didn't ask for it: "I don't even go out of the door, what do you want money for, you take it." ”

Laneige asked her: "It's cold outside now, you don't go out, but when it's warm later, you're still the same as before, and you don't go out and nest at home." ”

The old lady glared: "Laneige, that's how you raised me, I'll go out and spend money for you." Why, you can still not give. ”

"Give, my mother-in-law, alas, I thought you were old and sexual, this is not the same as the original, you know that I am powerful. ”

"If you don't give it, it's over, I'll spend money for you in the future, and the money you earn is also yours. What are you doing for me?

Laneige, let me tell you, keep the family's money tight, your four nephews may come when they come, those children are all ruined, don't take your money away.

Sister-in-law Zhou, you have also put your money away, and when you see them coming, you will lock your door.

These kids are really uncomfortable. Now they dare to take their own people's money, and they will dare to take other people's money in the future, and I panic when I think of this. ”

Or the old lady knows her own children.

This year's lunar calendar leap October, the fifteenth day of the lunar month will hit spring, the winter is particularly long, from October fifteenth to the Spring Festival three and a half months.

Compared with the busy green of Hantun Village, the winter in other villages is particularly leisurely. Now people's food and clothing are guaranteed, and the family has a savings of a few hundred yuan.

Life is no longer stressful, and people are not like the original, looking for work everywhere, busy for more than half a year, and then at home for the winter.

During this long winter, the women are busy weaving and spinning flowers, and the men are idle after finishing their household chores.

Especially at night, it gets dark at six o'clock in the afternoon, and by ten o'clock and four hours at night, the men have nothing to do, and they don't want to be at home every day with the old ladies, so they get together to have fun.

From simply playing cards to gambling, from small gambling to big gambling, in the winter of '84, the wind of gambling spread in the countryside, and there were several gambling dens in every village. Fortunately, everyone still knew that gambling was wrong, and they didn't dare to gamble publicly, but they hid at night and carried out it secretly.

The men indulged in gambling and stayed up all night. Not everyone gambles, many just follow the excitement, and watch others gambling all night, which shows the great attraction of gambling.

Gambling at night, sleeping during the day, nothing happens in winter anyway. Women are content if men can help with housework, and women will not climb if they don't help women, after all, since ancient times, there has been no habit of men doing housework.

Men have worked tirelessly for a year, playing a few cards in winter, as long as it is not a big gamble, winning today and losing tomorrow, winning or losing a piece of anise, and women do not take it to heart.

But if you play big, it's like fifty and one hundred, and the women don't recognize the wins and losses of three or five dollars a day. They get up early and work hard all day to earn five yuan.

Since the institutional reform in January '84, the focus of the state's work has shifted to economic construction, and the country's thinking about spiritual civilization has been relaxed. In the past, every winter, the commune organized a special team to catch gambling, but this year this work was not arranged.

However, someone reported that the police station was immediately dispatched, and the gambling funds captured were confiscated, and all personnel were detained regardless of whether they participated in gambling or not.
