"No, what if you get sick from the cold?"

When Zhengyang and Xiuxiu wanted to say something, Bai Jiu stopped them, "You guys watch the fire at home, don't put it out when your mother comes back, it's all wet firewood at that time, and we'll have to freeze tonight." ”

As soon as they heard that their mother asked them to guard the fire, the two of them didn't say anything to follow.

"Well, Xiuxiu and I must be optimistic about the fire and wait for my mother to come back."

"That's good."

Originally, Bai Jiu wanted to kiss them, but his face was really dirty and he couldn't kiss him.

Forget it, wait until tomorrow when she prepares all the daily necessities and then give them a good wash.

When she arrived at the back mountain, Bai Jiu met the people in the village, and they all asked her about her separation.

She didn't have the time to make small talk here at this time.

After a few casual words, he went up the mountain.

If she had chopped firewood, she didn't know if she was lucky enough to come across some wild things.

If not, don't be afraid, there are a lot of chickens and ducks in her space, and it's no problem to take out one.

After she finished the firewood, Bai Jiu saw that it was still early and wanted to try her luck.

Alas, nothing.

Think about it, if it's so easy to find, and the people in the village are not stupid, why can't she be her turn.

Since you can't touch it, you can only take it from the space.

After an afternoon of work, Bai Jiu was already hungry, so he found a big tree and climbed it.

I don't know what kind of tree, but it is actually green and leafy in winter.

After completely enveloping himself in the leaves, Bai Jiu took out two large meat buns from the space, and served them with some lo-mei.

That's called an incense.

When she returned, she wrapped the chicken in some leaves, carried the firewood and drove home.

The place where they live now is a bit out of the way, and she is on the road of the mountains, so she didn't touch the people in the village when she came back.

After arriving home, Zhengyang and Xiuxiu were attracted by the chickens brought back by Bai Jiu.

It was the first time they had seen pheasants.

"Don't be greedy, quickly help my mother raise the fire higher, and my mother will roast you chicken to eat in a while." Seeing that they were so greedy, Bai Jiu smiled and quipped.

"Okay." The two didn't care about their mother's jokes, and their voices should be high.

It's just that Bai Jiu didn't know that the people who lived in a house not far from her were hungry and cried because of the chicken she roasted.

"Alas, I don't know who lives in, actually eats meat, we haven't smelled meat for a long time." It was an old man who looked to be in his sixties.

He swallowed as he spoke.

"Don't be greedy, no matter how much you think about it, that meat is not ours, now Lao Li is still sick, don't make trouble." A tattered but clean old woman spoke up.

Who are they, and are they worthy of meat?

"Alas, you said that Lao Li will get better when he is sick, I am a little out of breath when I look at him like that." Another emaciated old man looked at the man sleeping on straw with a distressed face, and his body was also covered with straw.

"Isn't this still panting, unlike the previous ones, no longer panting, okay, I'll go up the mountain tomorrow to look for it, see if I can find some medicine." Of the four, the only woman spoke.

Her surname is Zhou, her name is Lan, and she was sent down with her husband, who was the one who spoke earlier.

"I'll go with you, I'm not worried about you alone." Zhou Lan's husband Zhang Weiguo said in a deep voice.

Zhou Lan shook her head, "No, it's inconvenient to have too many people, I'm fine alone, even if I am seen, I will only think that I am looking for wild vegetables." "On a day like this, there are no wild vegetables.

Everything that could be eaten from the foot of the mountain to the halfway point of the mountain was picked by the villagers.

It's not easy to survive the winter, and this year it's not time to distribute the grain.

Zhang Lao was still not at ease, but he also knew that what his wife said was right.

"Well, I don't know when it's a head." Zhang Lao sighed.

"No matter when, we all have to live, and only by living can there be hope." Another emaciated old man, whose surname was Wu and who was from Kyoto, built a fire.

The decentralization here is also from the family, but I didn't expect that all the people who came down with him were gone.

There are only a few of them left.

He has money, but he can't buy things if he has money, and people like them can't even sell them things, and they can't even go to the county seat.

Every day, the village sends people to educate them, and then they are pulled out to work.

I do the dirtiest and most tiring work, but I eat the worst, and I can't eat enough.

Bai Jiu didn't know this, because there was nothing at home, so after she moved the fire from the fire to the kang, she took the two children to bed.

At this time, there is no electricity, and you can't even think about anything on your mobile phone, so all you can do when it's dark is to sleep, no wonder the birth rate of children in this era is so high.

Before dawn the next day, Bai Jiu got up in the night, about five o'clock.

In winter, it was still dark outside at five o'clock, and nothing could be seen, because the production team had to walk for about two hours to get to the county seat.

There was no other means of transportation, so she had to get up early, or she wouldn't be able to come back at noon.

She made a fire, and after the charcoal was raised, she buried a few sweet potatoes and wrapped four eggs like she did yesterday.

In this way, the child will not be afraid of hunger.

The two children can take good care of themselves, otherwise the original owner would not have lived until now.

It's just that she delayed her work for half a day.

Although she earns less, she has space, and even if she loses her food, she can't live.

Bai Jiu was still a little hairy when she was traveling at night, but in order to live, she had to go boldly.

The winter wind blew on her face and hurt, she took out an old down jacket from the space and put it on, and finally felt a little warm.

When she arrives at the county seat, she has to buy some cloth back, so that the three of them can survive this winter.

By the time she arrived at the county seat, it was already dawn, but fortunately she had eaten something while she was on the road, otherwise she wouldn't have survived the journey.

However, after seeing the scenery of the county, she was greatly disappointed.

Because the county seat in this era is completely different from what she imagined.

In this era when the college entrance examination has not even begun, the county seat is not as good as a modern town.

The streets are dilapidated, lined with bungalows, and there are no modern high-rise buildings.

Not only is the construction not good, but even the pedestrians on the road are dusty, and they all look very thin and thin, which is cleaner and tidier than the people in the village.

After entering the main road, there are many shops on both sides of the street, such as supply and marketing cooperatives, state-run restaurants, post offices, and the like.

Slogans from this era are also posted on the walls.

Bai Jiu knew what she wanted to buy before she came, and after she entered the supply and marketing cooperative, she went directly to find what she needed.

The layout of the supply and marketing cooperatives is similar to that in TV.

There are all kinds of large cabinets, and the doors are made of clear glass, and there are all kinds of goods inside, so you can see them at a glance.

"Is there a pot for sale?" Bai Jiu felt that the most needed thing at home now was a pot, and he couldn't even cook without a pot.

Because it was early in the morning, there was no special price negotiation in the supply and marketing cooperative, so there was no one.

The salesman lazily raised his eyes and glanced at Bai Jiu who was standing in front of him, and he didn't look like a city person.

She didn't bother to take care of this dress.

"Yes, you want to buy it? It's very expensive, don't ask if you can't afford it. "Attitude, that's called arrogance.

Bai Jiu was speechless, if this attitude was placed in modern times, he should have been killed a long time ago.

is just a salesperson, and she is like the boss of this supply and marketing cooperative.

"What, you know I can't afford it? Know how much money I have? "Bai Jiu is not used to her, what's wrong.

The salesperson didn't expect to be so fierce, and was startled by her voice, "Ten yuan, ten industrial tickets." ”

In this era, you not only have money to buy things, but also have tickets, you need food stamps for meals, cloth stamps for buying cloth, sugar stamps for buying sugar, etc., except for some special price negotiations, most of them are for tickets.

When Bai Jiu heard this, his brows furrowed.

She had really forgotten about it.

Tickets, she really doesn't have them.

Now there is still half a month before Gao Zhijun's subsidy, and she really can't get a ticket for a while.

Seeing Bai Jiu's reaction, the salesman had an expression that I knew, his face was very disgusted, and he mocked: "I said don't ask if I can't afford it, some people can't afford it and ask hard, look, mud legs are mud legs, and you have to charge ····· if you don't have money." ”

Bai Jiu doesn't have a ticket, he really can't buy it, but this person is too annoying to speak, this attitude...

"This comrade, you speak to me to pay attention, what's wrong with the mud legs? Muddy legs eat your rice? If there were no mud legs, what would you city people eat? What to drink? Do you think that the grain in the field grows on its own?

Oh, the salesman is also a state worker, and he is so openly engaged in class discrimination and looks down on the peasants. After Bai Jiu finished speaking, he slapped the cabinet in front of him heavily.

The salesperson was taken aback, and what scared her even more was Bai Jiu's words.

The consequences of being labeled as class discrimination are very serious, and she will not be able to keep her job, and it will affect her family.

"That comrade, I'm sorry, I was wrong, I didn't have a brain to speak, you have a lot of adults, don't worry about me in general, I'm not engaged in class discrimination, don't worry, I will correct my attitude in the future." The salesman was scared.

Apologize quickly.

Bai Jiu really didn't have a ticket, and she knew that the attitude of the salesperson was the norm in this era, so she didn't care about it anymore.

She was just scaring her.

"Okay, now that you know it's wrong, it's over, I hope there will be no next time, don't embarrass the country."

"Yes, yes, comrade, I was wrong, I will correct it in the future." The salesperson should be silent.

She has money and no tickets, and it's not interesting to stay any longer, so she plans to leave.

When the salesman saw her leaving, he hurriedly shouted, "Comrade, you don't buy the pot anymore?" ”

"I'll buy it later, but I can't take it away after I buy it now." Bai Jiu can't say that he doesn't have a ticket.

Alas.

After leaving the supply and marketing cooperative, Bai Jiu was thinking about where to go to get some industrial tickets back.

Otherwise, it might be in vain today.

Generally, tickets like this are mostly reserved for people who work in the city.

It's really hard for her to get it.

"Ugh."

Except for the supply and marketing cooperatives, the pot cannot be bought anywhere else, and even if it is sold, it is second-hand.

She didn't want to buy second-hand.
