What's trending lately?

- That must be what you ate.

This wind blows all over the north and south of the river, inside and outside the gates.

Daddy Zhang finally wrote a complete letter. After sending a letter to the capital for the first time in his life, he said a very simple sentence: Xiao Wu, don't send food stamps!

The sudden sentence made Zhang Guoqing scratch his head. Fortunately, there were letters from Zhang Lao Er and several of their brothers and sisters.

Several brigades near Zhangjia Village attracted the peak of the crowd - in the past, farmers envied the city people, but now the city people put down their bodies, looked for relatives everywhere, and entered the small farm yards and open fields.

I have to say that it is an irony - what does it feel to treat the poor relatives who came to the door with white eyes in the past, and now follow the so-called countrymen?

The old Zhang family has been farmers for generations, and their ancestors have lived by hunting and farming for generations. That is, except for the accident of Zhang Guoqing, the whole family moved to the county seat.

At this time, Dad Zhang looked at the noisy families in the village, and secretly congratulated himself that his three brothers had no cheeky relatives. He subconsciously ignored his bad nephew and niece.

Uncle Zhang frowned and scolded, settled the quarrel and followed his second brother to the old captain's house.

"Why are you coming back? Look at your ruddy complexion, younger than your younger brother, don't wander around if you have nothing to do. It's so old, and I haven't seen it yet. What if something happens along the way? ”

"Big brother, you're wrong. I'm fine with 10 by myself. ”

Uncle Zhang glanced at his second brother with a headache. How confident is this guy? Still ten?

"Let's go back. The yards of the second and fifth children are arranged for people to live in, and there will be no problem. It's okay to go to the capital, don't dangle in front of my eyes. ”

Dad Zhang was not angry when he heard it. This time, thanks to his eldest brother, he arranged for the lonely and widowed old people in the village to live in the homes of his two sons, otherwise if he really wanted to let a small family live in, it would be difficult to catch up with people.

Seeing the fork in the road, Dad Zhang saw him bend his back and leave, shaking his head helplessly.

When he returned to the old mansion and found his two sons coming over again, he glared at them angrily.

"Dad, let's go. This dead cold day is full of waste wood. ”

Zhang Lao Er hurriedly pulled his eldest brother. Ouch, I really can't speak, and my father thinks that he came here because he was worried that their old couple would be wasted.

"Dad, it's not a matter that Xiao Wu's courtyard is empty, you have to go back and see if there is anything missing."

Sure enough, as soon as Zhang Lao Er said this, Zhang's mother hurriedly pulled his wife away and returned to the city.

Others don't know, but Zhang Lao Er knows that his younger brother has prepared a lot of private goods for his father. Last month, his father asked him to exchange 50 catties of rice for coarse grains.

If it weren't for his father and his younger brother, he and the old man would not be able to open the pot.

On the way back, Zhang Lao Er followed Zhang's father and walked slowly behind. I saw that his mother was walking fast with her eldest brother, and she was a distance away.

He whispered to Father Zhang: "Uncle Zuo said that the universities in the capital have also reduced their food, and even my Uncle Zhou has reduced their supplies a lot. Xiao Wu's food stamps cannot be sent back. ”

Father Zhang glanced at him and bowed his head silently. said lightly, if it weren't for the subsidy of some of their coarse grains, it is estimated that they would have written to the capital for help.

However, it is true that the old son can no longer send food stamps back. If they have too many things in their hands, those daughters-in-law will have to move their minds again. Don't think that he doesn't know that the old family secretly gave her father and mother ten catties of cereal noodles, if the second family didn't have his son staring, it would be about the same.

returned to the county seat, and this time Zhang's father was unwilling to live in the other two sons' houses. The son is his own, and the two daughters-in-law are outsiders. Avoiding his own man every day, licking his face and smiling at his old couple, from time to time he said something about his mother's predicament, looking at him and not knowing their thoughts? He just didn't bother to pay attention.

Zhang's mother ignored the pleading of her two sons and insisted on living alone. You and your wife can eat whatever they want, and you don't have to look ahead and backward when you want to make a good meal for your grandchildren and grandchildren. The old son left a bunch of things, and she would be stupid to follow her daughters-in-law to suffer.

The old couple nested in the room, and finally wrote a letter after a lot of effort. Well, the old couple is satisfied, or they will write letters conveniently.

The weight of this letter was extremely heavy, and with the love of Zhang's father and mother, it finally arrived in Zhang Guoqing's hands in advance.

When Zhou Jiao saw Zhang Laoer's letter, she learned that her in-laws ran home to live by herself, and it was estimated that something would happen, which made the old couple feel uncomfortable.

This time, the couple did not stop them in the reply letter, but sent a letter to the eldest sister Zhang Meili, asking the three brothers Ziwen to accompany the old man from time to time. I believe that with children like Xizi and Ziwen, they will not let their parents be lonely, and by the way, they will more or less reduce the burden of Zhang Meimei's family.

The couple analyzed the food stamps sent back from the clues, which must have made the two sisters-in-law blushing and embarrassed their parents. Considering the grain stock in their hometown, this time the couple obeyed Zhang's father's orders and never sent food stamps back.

Such behavior also made Dad Zhang breathe a sigh of relief. Especially seeing the emergence of food substitutes and green algae in the canteen of the textile factory, the old couple was secretly glad - their old son did not need to save food stamps from between his teeth, and he should not have to eat these things.

His old son Zhang Guoqing really doesn't need to eat any substitute food, but unfortunately the food situation in the school has not improved, but it is becoming more and more depressed.

Starting this autumn semester, cornmeal, dried sweet potatoes, sorghum noodles, soba noodles, and even the occasional white noodles are not the original standard 85 noodles, but instead of the original standard 85 noodles, they will be replaced by "even bran down" without bran.

What is "bran"? That is, 100 catties of wheat are ground out of 100 catties of flour. When swallowed, you can clearly feel a tingling pain in your throat. Even there are very few of them.

The most common dry food on the table, in addition to cornmeal, is soba noodles. Its noodles look white, but when they are eaten as steamed buns, they turn black and black.

These coarse grains have been improved many times in the canteen, adding a lot of leaves, bud rice core flour and some other messy things, the taste is more hard and astringent, with a little bitterness, and a hint of sweetness, and the most terrible thing is that you will be constipated when you eat it.

In the past, Zhou Jiao still had confidence in the black wowotou, vegetable dumplings, and steamed buns, but this time she couldn't do anything. The ingredients are too complex, and no matter how hard she tries, she still can't make the finished product similar to it.

It didn't take long for everyone to be full, and many varieties were added to the canteen, and some substitutes appeared. The most common of these is also a type of green algae.

After eating this thing, the stomach was hot and stirring, and then the bloating was like a bulge, and even the gas became a problem. But it relieved the hunger.

In order to receive more of these foods, many people braved the wind and snow to go to the countryside, and only after dark did they staggered back to school one after another, and handed over the "loot" they had picked up to the canteen in exchange for a few food vouchers.

Fortunately, it is not mandatory to eat in the cafeteria in the school now. Unless necessary, Zhang Guoqing and his wife are with everyone, and they don't dare to stay in the cafeteria for a second at other times.

And Yi Jiefang was so hungry that he went home in a day or two to bring back dry food and cook some soup in the house, barely able to support it.

Looking at the other students who have gradually lost a lot of weight, everyone tacitly agrees that they no longer dare to return to school with meaty food.
