The next day, except for the ten families who said it yesterday, the rest of the people were working honestly in the fields, although they were still a little lazy, they were still doing their work half-baked, but everyone's spirit was very different from yesterday, and their eyes were full of hope.

When I was working, I looked up at the mountain from time to time, wanting to see if the families who had gone to the mountain to pick sweet potato leaves had returned.

At this time, Qiao Hua was coming back from asking for leave from the captain, took something from home, carried a basket, and went to Qiao Mu's house, she had been a little worried about her mother's situation since she learned the news last night, and after eating this morning, she asked the captain for a leave, so she hurriedly brought something from home to see Qiao Mu.

When I entered the door, I didn't have time to find a place to put my things, so I looked at them with some concern:

"Mother, you are so bold, you dare to make your own decisions about such a big thing, and you have planted so many sweet potatoes in the mountains, you are not afraid of being tired at such an old age, I can't go to the field now, and I feel back pain after a while."

Forget it, it's too late to tell you this, I came here this time, I brought you gold, I should have brought it to you a long time ago, but last time you didn't say you wanted to make a gold bracelet, I happened to meet an old goldsmith some time ago, so I took it upon myself to ask him to make a thin bracelet, here!

It's a little fine, but it's not eye-catching! ”

As she spoke, Qiao Hua had already taken out the gold bracelet from the basket and handed it to Qiao Mu.

Qiao Mu was also pleasantly surprised to take it.

No matter how old a woman is, she will always like surprises and gifts, even if sometimes she says don't break the bank, I don't like it, but in fact, most of them are just words.

The heart is still more or less happy.

Of course, this is talking about gifts from wives and children, not some messy people who give gifts to women, and women will rejoice.

"You're really breaking the bank, it costs a lot of money to ask a goldsmith to make a bracelet, this pattern is also beautiful, and it looks very exquisite!

How much money did the goldsmith spend, mother to you! ”

"Mother, it won't cost a lot of money!

Speaking of which, thank you for helping us exchange gold, if you hadn't helped our family exchange a tael of gold and gave 170 yuan, our family would have been out of cooking a week ago.

Alas, at that time, I was thinking that I might not be able to distribute much grain during the summer harvest, so I had to change some money to press the bottom of the box, and I also felt at ease, but who knew that the summer harvest was not not much, but basically did not get it.

My God, mother, you don't know, the price of grain on the black market is crazy, a pound of polished rice costs five yuan, and you have to take a food stamp, sweet potatoes can be sold for two yuan a catty, this is simply a money grab, I was worried that the little money at home may not last long, and I have to find a way to exchange it for gold, so don't worry about it now! ”

Qiao Hua waved her hand again and again, she asked the goldsmith to make the bracelet and didn't spend money at all, but only paid five catties of sweet potatoes, although the price of five catties of sweet potatoes is not low now, but how can this be measured by money? What's more, how embarrassed is she to ask for her mother's money.

"In that case, you're welcome!"

As he spoke, Qiao Mu had already put the bracelet on his hand and continued:

"I won't give you the money, but you can bring some sweet potatoes back, there is still nearly a month before the sweet potato harvest on the mountain, and it is not a matter of going to the black market to buy food.

After all, even if your family only eats one pound of sweet potatoes a day, the money to buy sweet potatoes alone will cost nearly 100 yuan, which is really not cost-effective!

Don't refuse this, I have stolen so many sweet potatoes in the mountains, scattered planting points in other places, there are also a lot of them, sweet potatoes were put in the kitchen by me, about fifty catties, you take them all away, don't be afraid that I don't have to eat, I also hide a lot in other places, I can't be hungry! ”

Arbor has always been the attitude that you are good to me, and I am good to you, whether it is a heart-to-heart sincere exchange with each other, or an exchange between interests and interests, there must always be an exchange.

You can't just give without getting something in return.

"Mother, why don't you give me the bottom, how many sweet potatoes have you planted? The number of sweet potatoes you grow makes me feel a little panicked!

This yard is so big......"

Qiao Hua is really a little panicked, her mother's audacity makes her a little flustered and worried, for fear that after Qiao Mu sees the benefits, she will continue to do this.

"I didn't plant much, dozens of plants!

Let me tell you, the sweet potato seedlings I planted were brought from other places, and they can grow five or six catties under one plant, so although I only planted dozens of them, I also harvested hundreds of catties, and the point given to you is nothing! ”

The arbor also reacted at this time, and the reaction was that the yield of sweet potatoes was low this year, and the fruit of a normal sweet potato plant was less than a catty, so it was normal for the arbor to suspect that there were a lot of arbors.

"This, how can there be so much?

Oh, mother, you bought the high-yield grain seeds in the newspaper that yielded 10,000 gold per mu!

It's really good, with this kind of seed, if our village also planted a little in the field in the second half of the year, it didn't take too much, a little planting dozens of acres was enough for everyone in our village to chew, although sweet potatoes can't be paid as public grain, but they can be full!

I have to suggest to the village chief when I go back! ”

Qiao Hua was a little surprised at first, but in an instant, she thought of the grain with a yield of 100,000 catties per mu mentioned in the propaganda, so she didn't think it was too strange, she just felt that this high-yield sweet potato was obtained by Qiao Mu from those places, and it was very coaxing.

didn't need Qiao Mu to find a reason to make it up, she circled Qiao Mu's words herself.

"Hmm...... Well, yes, that's it! ”

What can arbors do at this time?

The boat is perfunctory.

No one checked anyway.

In late August

The People's Daily published a long editorial on the front page of the People's Daily, entitled "Distribution According to Work, Labor is Glorious," which officially lowered the curtain of egalitarianism.

At the same time, the work division system with the principle of distribution according to work as the core has also officially begun to be promoted nationwide.

No one knew where the change came from, and no one cared, and at this time everyone was still generally concerned about what to do with the next meal, and working harder to earn work, hoping to get more food by the end of the year.

Although the overall scope has not changed much, it is clear that farmers have become more active.

These changes have also fully sounded the alarm for the people above, sounding that the implementation of various policies is not taken for granted, not theoretically feasible, and it is necessary to consider many changes in many aspects, and even the psychology of the people.
