Time slipped into the end of October, morning and evening are cool, neither cloudy nor sunny, neither cold nor hot, and the weather is the most comfortable.

At the Saturday dinner, Jiang Huifen watched Lu Zhongfu pick up another piece of ribs, so she said loudly, "Don't always eat meat, it's not easy to digest at night." ”

"But I like to eat meat, and I feel weak when I don't eat meat." Lu Zhongfu continued, "When people are old, only by eating some meat can they have energy, and only then can their bodies be warmed up." ”

"The meat didn't say that you wouldn't eat it, it just let you eat it during the day." Jiang Huifen persuaded, "It's good to drink more soup at night, it's easier to digest." ”

Lu Zhongfu paused his chopsticks and looked at her and said, "You want me to fill my belly with thin soup!" ”

"Who said that?" Jiang Huifen raised her eyes and looked at him and said.

"Why don't you boil some porridge! Porridge is easy to digest in the evening. Zhu Cuiyun immediately said.

"It's okay, don't be busy, I'll just eat this piece!" Lu Zhongfu pouted dissatisfiedly and said, "You old woman is really good at ruining people's happiness." ”

"Haoyi's mother, Ming'er stewed some pork ribs." Lu Jiangzhou admonished.

"Hmm!" Zhu Cuiyun simply responded.

After the dinner, Jiang Fan looked at Lu Jiang Dan with a teacup in his hand in the living room, "The Iranian Revolution has not affected your clothing business!" ”

Large-scale strikes and demonstrations began in Iran in August, eventually paralyzing the country.

For the Middle East, a place that is very far away for the small citizens of Xiangjiang, others don't care what they do, it has little to do with themselves, and they still have to fight for three meals!

For the Lu family, who made Lu Jiangdan's clothing business in the Middle East?

So as soon as Lu Jiangfan asked, everyone's eyes looked at Lu Jiangdan.

"Orders have been reduced earlier. It hasn't been shipped for months. The accounts have been settled, and the money and goods have been cleared. Lu Jiangdan put down the teacup in his hand and said, "Even if the situation calms down in the future." The clothing sector will also be drastically reduced, or the design will be more conservative, in short, there are other businesses to do. Such as household appliances, fans, shoes and hats, and many more...... Besides, after the oil crisis, the Western economy recovered very quickly, so there is no need to worry about it at all. ”

Jiang Huifen took a sip of tea. Run's throat smiled and said, "Our Jiang Dan is really confident!" ”

"Of course, the economy is booming. The purses of the citizens are bulging, the east is not bright, but the west is bright. Lu Jiangdan smiled softly.

"Why? The Middle East is so rich that it is a pity to lose it? Lu Haowu said with grapes in his mouth.

"Finish eating before talking." Annie Chen looked at her and said.

Lu Haowu swallowed the fruit in his mouth. Hey hey, smile.

"The demonstrations are a revival of tradition. When the religious forces came to power, it meant that women would be driven home, and it was forbidden in Islam to wear fancy clothes that were contrary to the rules of Shariah and social customs, and women had to wear veils. How can my mother's fashion clothes be sold? Gu Yaluo's dark eyes flashed with a faint streamer, and she said indifferently.

"Huh?" Lu Haowu patted his chest and said, "Fortunately, I was born here, if I were in the Middle East, I would definitely not be able to survive a day." ”

"Compared to them, our family is not feudal at all." Lu Zhongfu suddenly said with a divine voice.

Everyone looked at each other and smiled.

The Middle East due to the skyrocketing price of oil. But it is rich in oil, in 1979 Iran per capita 2,000 dollars. People are freer and richer, but that's what the United States is all about.

There are various analyses and explanations as to why the Islamic Revolution in Iran, marked by retro, took place. Some scholars use the modernization movement as the background to trace the roots of such a trend: the secularization and Westernization movement initiated by Kemal, the father of Turkey, and the so-called open cultural policy of the Iranian dynasty, which not only brought about the advanced wind of the West, but also brought the wind of decadent culture and lifestyle of the West.

The influx of large numbers of pornographic, obscene, and murderous books, periodicals, and films, public activities in gambling halls and brothels, and Western-style bars and nightclubs competing for profit in the market, and the corruption of social customs, have impacted Iran's inherent Islamic cultural traditions and way of life, and have aroused widespread dissatisfaction among Muslims.

In the course of the development of Islamic countries in the sixties and seventies of the 20th century, they encountered various setbacks and failures along the way to westernization. After becoming suspicious of the path between East and West, as a descendant of a theocratic civilization, it is natural to look back to his own traditional Islamic teachings. The Islamic Revolution in Iran can be seen as the latest practice of this school of thought.

"When the economy is good, you are not allowed to be extravagant and wasteful, we must be economical." Lu Zhongfu looked at the children and said, "It is easy to go from thrift to luxury, and it is difficult to go from luxury to thrift." ”

"Yes!"

"What's wrong now, car fares, gasoline fees, cigarettes, parking fees, you can increase as much as you want, which makes the people complain." Lu Zhongfu sighed and said, "There is a commotion in Iran, I don't know if oil prices will rise, and there will be any rise in the future!" ”

"Didn't the British government guarantee ......?" Lu Jiangzhou muttered.

"Who believes in those promises! Under those guarantees that those are honored! Lu Zhongfu pouted and said, "The economy is good, but the price of goods is so high that the citizens have to tighten their belts." ”

"Inflation is happening all over the world, it's inevitable." Lucifer said.

"Inflation, even gold is going up!" Lu Zhongfu said again, "What else is not rising." This is what the government should do to stabilize prices, not to mention those who do not have. Look at it! The price of goods will rise in turns. Lu Zhongfu looked at them and said, "After all, we have to save in all aspects." ”

"Yes!"

"Let's go play chess and give up the living room to the women." Lu Zhongfu got up and said.

There was a bang, and the women watched the man leave before they sat down again.

Jiang Huifen picked up the teacup, took a sip to moisten her throat and said, "As far as your father just said, I have to say a few words, otherwise your father's old stubbornness will count me down again." She paused and said, "We housewives should all reflect on ......?" ”

"Mom, are you specific?" Zhu Cuiyun asked along with the old man's words.

"We need to reform the table culture, we can't be too extravagant and wasteful. When the family is there, sometimes they are lavish, and they can't eat too much. When it's time to treat guests, it doesn't need to be mentioned, it's a banquet entirely. ”

Zhu Cuiyun hurriedly raised her hand and declared, "Mom, whether we have a dinner party or the meals we usually make, we all eat all, and the children consume a lot of martial arts, so they are too good to eat." ”

"Don't interrupt!" Jiang Huifen said again, "I haven't finished yet!" When did we start to learn to spend time drinking? Have a meal? One or two delicious meals with rice are all you need! You watch the newspapers and TV! How many meals do we have to throw out in a day, what a waste! Do you think I'm right? Jiang Huifen's eyes looked at Xiang Lu Jiangdan and said, "Is there any waste in the canteen in your factory?" ”

"No, no, we have given the extra meals to the homeless people in the neighborhood for free." Lu Jiangdan immediately said.

"Listen, if it weren't for people, it would have been poured out as swill. What a pity! Jiang Huifen said.

"yes? It's amazing. Zhu Cuiyun agreed.

"What a waste! Prepare as much as you can and eat cleanly! If you can't eat enough, you can throw it into the trash, which costs money and causes public pollution! We need all women to reflect and reflect together! Throwing away food is the greatest sin! How distressing must it be? Think about it! Jiang Huifen glanced at the women present one by one, "Of course, we all ate it all at home, which is very good!" So in the company, in the school, do you also buy as much as you eat? ”

"Yes! Let's reflect. The children replied.

"The best fitness for people is to eat less and move more. Eat less and exercise more. Since we have eaten well, extravagance and waste, how many more diseases! Even the young people fell in droves. Jiang Huifen continued to preach.

"Grandma, our family's health is great, and even colds are rare." Lu Haowu raised his hand and said.

Jiang Huifen immediately said, "This is the result of your insistence on exercising. Grandpa did the right thing in this regard. ”

"But grandma, the average life expectancy has greatly increased now." Lu Haosi reminded softly.

"That's all because of the development of modern medicine, which has greatly reduced the mortality rate of newborns, and it's not bad, but it has saved some people. But what's the use of being alive? They are all sick and sick. Jiang Huifen paused for a moment and then said, "For example, in places that are not wealthy, they say that there is nothing to eat, but in any case, people don't have as many diseases as us, and they all live a long life." The new term of this disease is jumping out one by one! ”

"Our family dinner has never been wasted!" Chen Annie said.

"So is our family." Cheng Wanyi was not to be left behind.

"Also, I know you have money in your pockets, and you want to buy expensive imported goods on the farm." Jiang Huifen picked up the teacup and took another sip of tea.

"Mom! What else do you want to say? Lu Jiangdan said boldly.

"Don't interject, I'm not done yet?" Jiang Huifen nodded at her in the air and said, "This party should be meaningful, sit together to eat and drink, and talk about trivial things, what kind of party is it, do you say it is necessary?" ”

"Mom, you're right, and then I'll listen to the teachings." Lu Jiangdan clenched his fists with both hands and begged for mercy.

Jiang Huifen continued, "In the past, our ancestors were not farmers, our ancestors were farmers, and your father and I farmed at home when we didn't escape from the wilderness. ”

"It can be seen that my grandfather and grandmother take good care of the vegetable garden!" Gu Yaluo patted his ass.

"Don't flatter me!" Jiang Huifen sneered, "But now, no matter whether you are knowledgeable or uneducated, everyone is superstitious about foreign goods, and they also eat imported agricultural and sideline products, is it okay?" Our fathers and fellow villagers are still desperately farming, and we really let foreign bosses make money, can we be indifferent? I really can't help you, how can this work, let me change your consumption habits. ”

"Yes! We don't eat imported produce. Everyone responded in unison.

"Got it!" (To be continued.) )
