After Xu Lingjun and Xiuzhi sent everyone away, Qi Qi breathed a sigh of relief.

Inviting guests to dinner is really tiring, and it can be regarded as a high level of mental tension.

The people who come are all guests, and they all have to be taken care of.

Niu Fengying and Guo Yanzi were the last to leave.

Niu Fengying belonged to help, and she had to help them pack up and go back.

Guo Yanzi also helped them clean up.

He can't let his daughter-in-law go back alone for a while!

When Niu Fengying left at the end, Xiuzhi also asked her to take away five meters of fabric.

The relationship between the two families has always been close.

If you get closer, the two of them can also be regarded as matchmakers for Xu Lingjun and Xiuzhi.

You said that Wang Fuxing will distribute them tomorrow?

Yes, but those two meters of cloth are enough to make clothes for the child.

Now that you have this opportunity, don't adults want to make one too!

Don't think Niu Fengying is greedy, it's really too short of fabric.

They are not from the city, and they will issue more than one zhang of cloth tickets every year.

When I arrived in the countryside, the cloth tickets issued in the past two or three years may not be able to make a dress.

This gives rise to the phrase "three years of the new, three years of the old, and another three years of sewing and mending." ”

Even in remote places, a family has a pair of pants, and whoever goes out wears it.

This is not only a problem of poverty, but also a shortage of materials in this era.

Of course, Niu Fengying didn't think about taking it for nothing, and she would find a way to make up for Xiuzhi in the future.

There are many things that can be replenished, such as food, oil, etc., which are all items in short supply.

"Xiuzhi, you wait at home for a while, I'll go get some things."

It was already dark, and they lived at the very edge of the village, and no one would come here.

Even at this point, many people have already slept.

"Well~ be careful!"

Xiuzhi has been pouring items for so many times after Xu Lingjun, and she has also adapted to some of them.

She knew that Xu Lingjun was going to get the food he said in the afternoon.

Xiuzhi knew very well in her heart that Xu Lingjun earned work alone and had to support two people.

No, it's the three of them now, Xiuzhi touched her stomach.

I don't want to find any other way to get some food reserves.

When things get tough, it's like her old home.

Even in order to survive, she was reduced to the point of letting her daughter marry a fool~

Of course, the current result is the best, but she can also understand Xu Lingjun's approach.

After all, Xu Lingjun still has an identity, which leaves a way back for them.

Xiuzhi thinks all this with the thoughts of her time.

happened to return Xu Lingjun's behavior to Yuan.

Xu Lingjun didn't expect it to be so far at all.

He just wants Xiuzhi to live a good life, at least he doesn't have to be so economical in eating.

Otherwise, he would be in the space every day.

Seeing Xiuzhi eating bran at home, how could he get over the hurdle in his heart.

After a while, Xu Lingjun came back.

Xiuzhi hurriedly opened the door for him.

Originally, he wanted to take a hand, but Xu Lingjun dodged directly.

These things are not light, Xiuzhi is just pregnant, don't drag the child.

"You~ How did you get so many things back?"

Xiuzhi was shocked when she saw what Xu Lingjun had brought back.

I was too nervous just now to pay attention, but when I entered the house, Xu Lingjun put down his things and saw them clearly.

Xu Lingjun was carrying a bag of 50 catties of rice and a bag of cornmeal 50 catties under one arm just now.

Under the other arm was a bag of fifty catties of whole wheat noodles and twenty catties of millet.

A large piece of cloth, this is ~ a piece of mutton fat.

Wait, he also had two kneaded sheepskins on his back.

"Shhh~ What's this, forget the food stamps I gave you last time."

"It's just that this time I met an acquaintance, and I exchanged it for food."

"There is a limit to the amount of food that can be exchanged in the city, and it is not easy for you to exchange it if you save it."

"You keep the food stamps from the last time and use them at critical times."

Xu Lingjun said casually.

The one he brought back last time, plus the food stamps he mailed to his father-in-law, was 300 catties.

This time, he thought that he would get back less than 200 catties of grain, and Xiuzhi should be able to accept it.

It's just that last time it was a few small tickets, this time it's a real thing, and the shock is slightly greater.

Hearing Xu Lingjun say this, Xiuzhi felt that this was really the case.

Think about it again, the medicine that Xu Lingjun sold in the city for the first time was more than 80 yuan.

It seems that ~it seems~ these things are not so hard to accept.

"Xiuzhi, you take the things and let's get some first, and I'll hide the rest."

Xu Lingjun asked Xiuzhi to get some of all kinds of food outside.

He took the rest of the grain and went to a wardrobe in the corner.

Open the wardrobe and uncover the planks underneath to reveal the storage compartment inside.

This was not done by Xu Lingjun, but by the original owner.

Think about it, a scholar who was nurtured by his family when he was a child, can he be a fool?

When the original owner came to the seventh team, it didn't take long to start the "movement".

The original owner saw with his own eyes that his companions, who had been "educated" at the ranch, were paraded through the streets.

There is no place to live at night, and there is no guarantee of food.

Fortunately, Xu Lingjun was protected by Uncle Dong at that time.

With the excuse of "the grass is not good", he directly pulled Xu Lingjun up the mountain in advance.

For him, Uncle Dong persuaded everyone to go up the mountain in nine groups.

Therefore, the original owner's gratitude to everyone on the team is beyond words, and can only be remembered in his heart.

Of course, this feeling also affected Xu Lingjun, who has now absorbed his memories.

Later, the situation became more and more serious, and the original owner also kept a hand.

Most of the food he received each time was hidden here.

Only put a little outside, because I was afraid that the field department would come back at any time to arrest him to "educate".

Fortunately, there have been seven teams of people to maintain it over the years, and he has not suffered from this.

Of course, he didn't have much food left.

Like him, who worked hard for a month, he could get more than 30 catties of food every month for almost the work he earned.

It seems that there is a lot of grain, but the fine grain is only six or seven catties.

Whole grains are not all cornmeal, but also quite a few sweet potatoes and potatoes.

Sometimes I will also divide some sorghum rice or something.

And people at this time lack oil and water.

If a person eats hard, it is like playing with a meal to make more than a pound.

That's why Xiuzhi always advised Xu Lingjun to save food.

Now she can't earn work, she can't share food, so she can't do it if she doesn't save something!

"Okay Xiuzhi, the team will go to the field department to pull food the day after tomorrow."

"After the grain is distributed, there will be no shortage of food in our family."

"Now that you have a child, you can't save any more, you have to eat three meals."

"By the way, we have a lot of eggs at home."

"I also got some wild eggs in the cupboard."

"You remember cooking when I wasn't home at noon."

These days, Xu Lingjun has seen some people on the team from time to time.

A lot of people take eggs or something as a thank you gift.

Although there are not many, there are still some eggs at home.

"I know, but you're too dangerous~"

Although Xiuzhi was happy in her heart, she was more worried about Xu Lingjun.

"It's not as serious as you think, I did someone a favor this time."

"I recognized a sister who works in a supply and marketing cooperative."

"I'll get mountain goods or something in the future, and I can exchange things from her."

"People have some relationships in the supply and marketing cooperatives, this is a change, not speculation."

"It's not dangerous."

"But this kind of thing can't be spread, after all, the things in this mountain can't be explained."

Xu Lingjun told Xiuzhi the reason he had thought of a long time ago.

There is no way, he doesn't want Xiuzhi to worry too much, and it is for the convenience of the future.

She is young and has no knowledge, where can she withstand Xu Lingjun's old fritters.

Xiuzhi saw the pieces of fabric, as well as the rice and white noodles that were exchanged.

Compared with Xu Lingjun's words, I believed it.

"I'm not a child, I won't say it."

When Xu Lingjun heard Xiuzhi say this, he knew that he had passed this level again.
