Chapter 326: Buying Books [July Pass 320]

The faces of the members changed instantly, in that incident, there were a lot of people who were deducted from work and food, which bear child dared to do it, and saw that it would not break their legs!

The brigade has work and food restrictions, but not in the city, and the elementary and middle school students are very happy when they hear this broadcast, cheering and celebrating.

The turmoil that had not yet cooled down has reappeared.

Immediately, within a few days, the previously established "Haishi People's Commune" was changed to a red Haishi, and the trend of establishing a red in all provinces and cities across the country began.

From the analysis of the content on the broadcast, Qiao's father came to a conclusion that the candidates for participation have been expanded to workers, poor and middle peasants, and others.

Most of the Black Five categories used to have stable lives and their own jobs, but with this incident, their treatment instantly dropped to the bottom.

Qiao's father thought of Du Yueping, and the Du family seemed to be a little involved, but fortunately, Du Yuenan joined the army, and it was far away in the southwest, and the Du family was a glorious military family and would not be affected for the time being.

But Du Yueping was very depressed, he was going to get moldy at home, and Grandma Du didn't let him run around.

His friends are very active now, and they will go out every day, leaving early and returning late, as if they were doing something big.

People from the same building and the next building also came to shout, but Du Yueping finally refused, it was too boring.

All this made him miss the life in the alpine brigade very much, going up and down the mountain and down the river, burning honeycombs, panning for fish and shrimp, and catching all kinds of interesting insects, which is simply enjoyable!

The more Du Yueping thought about it, the more depressed he became, so he picked up a steamed bun made by Grandma Du and took a bite hard, the taste was still the same as before, but if the bamboo insect powder was used, the taste was much better, and it was regarded as the finishing touch.

Before the Chinese New Year, he also received a package from Qiao's father, a very large one, and he still invited someone to move upstairs.

In this package, there are a lot of extra things, a few oranges, and a large bag of dried bamboo shoots and insects.

Du Yueping had to say that when he first saw the bag of dried worms, he refused in his heart.

Although he ran around with Qiao Hongzhi and had eaten insects, he suddenly saw so much, and the impact was still not small.

Fortunately, the letter entrained in the package has an explanation of the dried insects, which are dried by bamboo shoots and insects, ground into powder, and added to thick noodles and other kinds of pancakes or steamed buns, which can increase nutrition and improve the taste.

At first, Du Yueping refused, but the steamed coarse noodles smelled really good.

Grandma Du has a hand in making pasta, and she specially put some oil in these dried insects and fried them until fragrant, and then grinded them into powder, not to mention the aroma.

The neighbors who lived in the same building couldn't help but ask what Granny Du had made delicious.

At the end of the year, families would find ways to buy some meat to give their families more oil and water.

But the taste of fried dried insects is different from the fried croquettes, with a sweet smell.

Grandma Du only explained with a smile, saying that the family couldn't afford to buy meat, so she got some bamboo shoots and insects to cook.

The living conditions of most of the citizens of Haishi are among the best in the country, so they are not sensitive to eating insects.

The people came and left, and then not long after, the whole building spread the rumor that the Du family was so poor that they couldn't afford to eat meat and could only eat insects.

As soon as they went out, everyone else looked at them with a kind of sympathetic gaze that they thought was hidden, which made Du Yueping very uncomfortable.

Grandma Du took the opportunity to educate him not to be too surprised by people's thoughts, they only know how to dislike it, how can they know the deliciousness here?

Grandma Du was fortunate enough to grab a little beef jerky before, and asked Du Yueping to write a letter, and she went to the thrift store to prepare some things such as soap, buttons, alabaster and so on, and asked Du Yueping to send them to the Alpine Brigade.

The post office is not closed during the Chinese New Year, and there are few people, so you don't have to queue up to send letters or do other things, which is very relaxing.

Du Yueping thought that Qiao Jiayue liked reading so much, so he planned to buy some old books, but after turning around, he found that the books he wanted to buy were gone.

Many comic strips about various heroes and legends of ancient times are gone, replaced by many well-known stories of revolutionary heroes, and many new books have been published.

Many children squatted in the bookstore to choose with the New Year's money, and Du Yueping finally squeezed in and took a copy of "The Heroic Year of the Brave Train".

He glanced out of the corner of his eye and saw a copy of "Combat Hero Liu Xuebao" held by the person next to him, the cover was a bridge, and a picture of a person holding an explosive bag away from the bridge.

Du Yueping looked at it, put down the book he picked up again, the price was a little more expensive, he finally flipped through it, and bought two red treasure books instead.

He heard the salesperson at the bookstore tell people that the Red Book must be bought, and if he doesn't buy it now, he won't be able to buy it in the future.

Du Yueping thought of what had happened in the sea market recently, and squeezed over to ask the salesman to get two copies for him, and asked for ten portraits of the chairman.

He didn't buy the last of those comic books, let alone others, he didn't have enough money in his hand to buy them.

In the end, the grandfather and grandson put in order the things they had bought, especially the ten portraits, which had to be carefully wrapped in brown paper.

When I arrived at the post office, I opened the box and checked the wrapped things again.

However, when those staff members saw the red treasure book and the portrait, the expressions on their faces changed instantly, and their attitude towards Grandma Du and Du Yueping was much better.

The grandparents and grandchildren walked along the street to their home, and after a short journey, they had already met several waves of people.

Du Yueping saw a familiar person in it, he seemed to be the manager of a department store, and now he said that he was a capitalist roader and wanted to be educated again.

"Grandma, the range has expanded. Du Yueping said worriedly.

Grandma Du just patted Du Yueping's head, there were many things they couldn't do, they could only try to save themselves.

"The Alpine Brigade is so remote, Grandma, they'll be fine. Du Yueping asked in a low voice, he knew for the first time what it was like to be worried.

"There's nothing going on over there, don't worry. "In remote mountainous areas, as long as those cadres have brains, they will definitely not be far behind.

"Grandma, school is going to start again, do you think we can learn?"

Faced with such an obvious answer, Grandma Du didn't know what to say, but her grandson is not a studious person, so what is the purpose of asking this.

"And then, even if you can't learn anything, you'll have to bring me your diploma. Grandma Du said coldly.

"It's better to take a high school or technical secondary school or technical school, otherwise what can you do? Really go to the street and be a gangster?"

"I can go to the Alpine Brigade!" Du Yueping said in a low voice, his confidence was very insufficient.

"Why, do you still like farming? You haven't experienced how hard farming is, before you went, people treated you as guests, but they didn't let you do heavy work. ”

“…… Besides, don't you know how precious a city hukou is?" Grandma Du said coldly, "Du Yueping, you still give me a good study." ”

"You said it yourself, the four brothers and sisters of the Qiao family are good at learning, and they can also make their own radios, and they will be successful in the future. What about you, you can't pass the high school exam, and you can't work, what can you do?"
