After more than half a month, after the rice planting was completed, Uncle Jia Junbo came over and asked Grandpa Xu to help escort the car to the county to load grain (hand over public grain).

At 3 o'clock in the morning, Grandpa Xu woke up Duan Huan, because he left early to hand over the public grain today, and it would take most of the day to leave, and Grandpa Xu didn't dare to leave Duan Huan alone at home.

Grandpa Xu drove the ox cart with all his joy, and there were a total of 2 cows, 2 horses, and 4 livestock carts in the village, and the rest depended on the strong laborers in the village to push the chicken cart and the rack cart.

These grain trucks walked in a row on a long mountain road, and it took about four hours to reach the county seat.

Fortunately, it was early when I arrived at the grain station, and it was not yet eight o'clock, so I was already lined up in front.

Grandpa Xu quietly took Uncle Jia Jun to the stationmaster's office, and the stationmaster was very happy to see Grandpa Xu.

"Uncle Xu! Why are you here" The stationmaster enthusiastically stood up and poured water for Grandpa Xu: "No wonder I heard the magpie call early this morning!" ”

As soon as he saw that he was an acquaintance, he knew what Grandpa Xu was doing with his uncle.

I once heard the old people of this generation say that at this time, the grain inspectors are particularly strict.

In fact, I am not afraid of strictness, but I am afraid that the grain inspectors will find faults, and the grain that is very clean will not be qualified, so it will have to be pulled back.

This time and again, the day is gone, who can guarantee that it will be able to live next time.

"Didn't I follow the village party secretary to deliver food! By the way, I'll sit here for a while! Grandpa Xu pulled over Huan: "Little fish is here, call Grandpa Qu!" ”

"Hello Grandpa Qu, I'm Xu Duhuan!" Huan greeted obediently: "Grandpa Qu, the wheat in our village is dry!" ”

Duan Huan said what the adults were not easy to say, and smiled innocently.

Now that he is cute and obedient, there is no psychological pressure at all for Huanhuan.

"How do you know that your village's grain is well dried?" Stationmaster Qu smiled, and said in his heart that this baby is so fine, and it was taught by adults before coming in.

With a smile, he lifted the two small dimples on his face: "When I was in the car, I picked up a few bites and clucked in my mouth!" ”

Stationmaster Qu was even happier when he heard it: "Uncle Xu, why do you say that the people in your family are as good as monkeys?" This girl is even more amazing, just this is big, she knows how to say good things! ”

Grandpa Xu didn't speak, so he touched Duan Huan's head.

"Grandpa Qu, I didn't say anything good, Zuzu said to be real, I'm telling the truth! Our wheat is really crunchy! Duan Huan also shook Grandpa Xu's arm: "Ancestor, did you say it!" ”

Stationmaster Qu stood up: "Then let's go, let's go and see the crunchy wheat you said!" ”

Jia Junbo hurriedly led Stationmaster Qu to the grain in front of their village, and Stationmaster Qu recruited a grain inspector: "Xiao Liu, come and check them, is it as crunchy as this niece said!" ”

This grain inspector named Xiao Liu is also a fine person, and pinched a few into his mouth: "Don't say it, stationmaster, this wheat is cleaned and washed, it is really crunchy!" Can be rated first-class! ”

Duan Huan immediately smiled and said, "Thank you, Uncle Liu!" ”

This clever and energetic shocked Xiao Liu, and waved his hand again: "You're welcome, you're doing revolutionary work, how can you be worthy of your thanks!" ”

"Xiao Liu is good! Very revolutionary! Stationmaster Qu also smiled and patted Xiao Liu's shoulder.

Xiao Liu hurriedly commanded the people from Tianshui Village to weigh and enter the warehouse, it was not easy to have a chance to perform, and he had to seize the opportunity.

At this time, Duan Huan's stomach "gurgled", and Duan Huan suddenly felt very embarrassed.

Grandpa Xu pulled Duan Huan to say goodbye to Stationmaster Qu and took Duan Huan to the state-run restaurant for dinner. Uncle Jia Junbo said that he would not go after eating dry food, and it was difficult for him to go away here, so Grandpa Xu had to take Duan Huan to go by himself.

Now when you go out to eat, they are all state-run hotels, and there are no other restaurants, and even if there are, they are very secret, and ordinary people can't find them.

In this era, without food stamps and letters of introduction, it is really difficult to move an inch. You can't buy anything if you have money and no tickets.

At this time, it was already past the meal of work in the morning, and there was no one in the store, so Grandpa Xu ordered 4 buns and 2 bowls of noodles. 8 points of steamed buns plus one or two food stamps, 2 cents a bowl of noodles plus 3 taels of food stamps. This cost nine cents and two cents and a pound of food stamps.

Duan Huan felt that this was still very expensive, after all, the wages of this worker were generally less than 30 yuan, which cost nine cents and two cents, and he had to post food stamps.

When Grandpa Xu sat down with the noodles, he wrinkled his eyebrows when he saw it: "What's wrong with Xiaoyu'er?" ”

"Zuzu, it's so expensive to eat here!" Huan Huan whispered in Grandpa Xu's ear.

Grandpa Xu smiled and handed over a bun to Duan Huan: "Don't worry about the little doll's house, Zuzu is rich!" Enough for you to eat openly, and you can't eat poorly! ”

When I opened the noodles, I found out that the noodles were placed underneath and chopped with a very fine miscellaneous sauce.

Although there are very few noodles and there is no meat, the noodles still taste good, a bit similar to dandan noodles, but a little more soup than dandan noodles.

This noodle doesn't seem to be a big portion, but the soup is very small, and there are only noodles in a big bowl, and I am afraid that there are three or four sides.

Such an amount, in 30 years, will be the amount of 3 bowls, I have to say that under the public ownership system, the price of water is really low, and most people now are very real people and things, and the lack of two catties will not happen.

The bun is also a meat bun, with less meat and more chives. The size is very large, a face that can have a lot of joy, there are not many fillings, the bite is very fragrant to the inside, the dough is just right, not hard or soft, and it is very comfortable to eat.

Duan Huan ate a bun, and he couldn't eat the noodles halfway through, so Grandpa Xu poured all the remaining noodles into his bowl and ate them together.

After eating, there were still two buns left, so I asked the waiter to wrap a piece of oiled paper and take it away, and I took it over and covered it up for a while, and then put it in the space.

Grandpa Xu went to buy meat with great interest, this month's supply, two days ago, arrived two days ago, and today you can just buy meat. I thought that although meat is also common at home, the little fish have been hungry for pork for many days. No matter how delicious the chicken, fish and shrimp are, I can't bear not to eat pork, not to mention small fish, I am panicked.

When it was Grandpa Xu's turn to queue up, he was lucky, there was a good piece of pork belly left, weighing two catties, at this time, the pork was 7 cents a catty, and the meat skin pig's trotters and stick bones did not need tickets, and Grandpa Xu also bought a bunch of them, adding up to a total of 3 yuan and 2 cents.

The waiter who sold meat was not very happy to see Grandpa Xu buy so much, but his face changed when he saw the military ticket.

I don't understand the waiter's face, how to change his face with the singer, it is white and black and white.

Grandpa Xu explained to Duan Huan:

In fact, if Grandpa Xu didn't buy these pig's trotters and pigskins, they could deal with them at a reduced price, so the waiter was unhappy, and his face changed when he saw the military ticket, because everyone's enthusiasm for supporting the army and patriotism was very high in this era.
