Suddenly, there were a lot of propaganda cards on the table in the canteen: strict economy, opposition to waste, CD-ROM action, start with me. When it comes to saving food, I have the impression that there are four people: the first is the deceased old man, who was born after the founding of the People's Republic of China. I vividly remember his actions when he served the rice, he would carefully scrape every grain of rice in the rice spoon from the edge of the bowl to the bowl, and he would pay special attention to it when eating, if the rice was scattered on the table, he would immediately pick it up and put it in his mouth; If the rice fell to the ground, he swept it with a broom and kept it to feed the chickens. He was frugal all his life, not only with food, but with clothes, with goods, and with everything he had. He hadn't read a book and couldn't recite the well-known "Hoe He", but he understood that "Hoe He" was a "poem", but it was not just a "poem".

The other was born in "difficult times", a cook who slipped away from the streets, he usually didn't talk much, he just smiled when he saw people, he looked silly and silly on his face, but he was shrewd in his bones. As long as the visitor told him the number of people, the number of dishes, and the amount of money, he would take a pen and put it on paper in one go, and several different menus would be completed, just waiting for the head of the house to come up with an idea.

The most surprising thing is that all the dishes he sells are delicious, high-grade, the guests can eat well, the owner is satisfied, and the cost is less. What's even more rare is that a garlic clove, a piece of cinnamon, and a few green onions, he uses them all for flavor or decoration, making the best use of them and never wasting them.

He is also a thrifty man, never leaving leftovers, even if there is only one grain of rice in the bowl, he will pick it up.

The third is the second aunt in her hometown, she knows a few words roughly, can barely write a name, his communication tool is "old man's treasure", and she can't use a smartphone. A few days ago, I deliberately asked the second aunt what is "disc action"?

She put down the clothes she was sewing and thought for a moment and replied, "That's ...... That's the disc used in VCD? I smiled and nodded, not explaining what exactly "Operation Disc" was, the explanation was redundant, because she was better able to do "Operation Disc" than anyone who knew about "Operation Disc".

The fourth is the sister of a colleague, born in the 90s, with two children. She used to work as a cashier in a restaurant, but because of the "epidemic", the restaurant was transferred, and she immediately stayed at home. Her husband is a construction site worker who works all day. One day, she bought a skirt on Taobao, and when she found that it didn't fit, she casually threw the dress with the sign into the trash.

She loves dumplings, but she loves filling, and she threw it away.

I feel sad that a garment has to go through dozens of processes from fabric molding, printing and dyeing, to cutting, production, and transportation; The same goes for a dumpling.

If parents raise such children, if children have such mothers, if men marry such wives, it is simply the sorrow of life, and what is even more sad is that a woman indulges her words and deeds wantonly, immersed in them but unaware, and is even more reckless and sad.

A person's ideological concepts and behavioral habits are accumulated over a long period of time, and there is no way to change a slogan or a single word. Diligent and thrifty people take diligence and thrift as the criterion, and arrogant people still take arrogance as glory.

Thrift is a virtue, an attitude, a habit, a cherishing of everything, and a piety rooted in the bones. A porridge and a meal, when thinking about it is not easy to come by; Half a thread and half a thread, the constant thought of material resources is difficult.
