Dinner is still a simple sweet potato porridge, and the two sweet potatoes signed in by the system are equal to gone. All the food that can be eaten at home is fine grains, sweet potatoes belong to miscellaneous grains, and coarse grains were received by Luo Cheng and did not use them.

The grain store has to go there to buy grain with the grain book, and even if other people go to buy it, at least they have to be registered together. Otherwise, if anyone picks up and steals, they can buy it.

But Luo Cheng doesn't need to buy the food stamps he received, and the bills are generally recognized but not recognized.

After asking if the money was enough, Luo Chengcheng didn't say anything. The two younger sisters spent a lot of money and went to a farmer's market to buy vegetables, and almost all of them asked the price of the vegetables before buying. Chinese cabbage costs a penny a pound, spinach costs a penny and eight cents, and the currency is not a cent, that is, if you don't buy five pounds of spinach, one pound is bought according to two cents. Five catties will charge you nine cents.

Just because spinach is a penny more expensive, they are reluctant to buy it, and they don't have to worry about spending money indiscriminately.

After eating, Luo Cheng wandered around the courtyard for a while and took a look at the situation in the room on the left. Indeed, the beds, tables and chairs have been bought, and they are in good condition. It wasn't until it was dark that I was going to wash up and go to bed, but I found that I had forgotten to buy another thermos in the cafeteria.

"Xiaoyu, we live in the city now, and we won't be able to do the work in the hometown brigade in the future. Let's just eat and drink big brother for nothing. ”

"Shishi, don't be in a hurry, wait for the next two days to take care of the house, we are familiar with the surrounding environment and then look at it. It's impossible for everyone in the city to have a job, and the eldest brother has a lot of skills, so maybe he can arrange a job for us in the future. ”

"Xiaoyu, I saw today that there are people who specialize in sweeping the road, you can make money by sweeping the road in this city, do you think I can go to sweep the road to make money."

"I saw it too, but who are we going to sweep, we can't sweep the road with a broom, someone will give us money~~."

In the city, many commonplace things are rare for people who have not been far away. In rural towns and villages, I can't make much money by working hard in the fields all year round. But when I came to the city, I found that sweeping the floor was actually a job, how simple it is, who wouldn't sweep the floor.

The next day, Xiaoyu and Shishi got up early in the morning and went to the farmer's market to buy fatty meat. In the past, in their hometown, they had almost no access to money, and occasionally they went to make soy sauce. A few years ago, even if there was an occasional thing about buying meat, they wouldn't have been called to buy it.

After coming to the city with the eldest brother Luo Cheng, the eldest brother didn't care about it, and let them go to buy anything. Twenty yuan, I followed Sissi yesterday to buy a bed, a table and chairs, and later a briquette, and the money went out of their hands. That's really when it's time to pay, first the poem is counted, and then handed it to Xiaoyu, and Xiaoyu counts it again, for fear of giving an extra penny.

But they like the feeling that although the eldest brother hasn't done anything, he has a feeling of being valued.

"Big brother, let's go buy meat."

"Hmm~~oh~~."

Luo Cheng opened his eyes in a daze, saw that it was his two sisters, answered, turned over, and continued to sleep. It's still early, it's such a cold day, and it's comfortable in the bed~~.

After squinting for a while, Luo Cheng sat up suddenly, remembering that the clothes worn by the two younger sisters were still thin, and they had old padded jackets, but it was not decent to wear them now.

The flawed cloth that he brought back last time, Luo Cheng also deliberately told his family that he didn't need to give them to Xiaoyu and Shishi, and he would solve it after taking them to the city.

There are still a lot of cloth tickets and finished clothes tickets in the factory, which have not been distributed. The factory director plans to pay wages in a unified manner next month, according to the level, to pay more and less, which is a matter on the financial side.

Supply and marketing cooperatives sell finished clothes, and if they don't have the right size, many people will change their clothes themselves. The textile factory also gave a lot of tickets, even if you don't buy the finished product, you can buy your own fabrics to make them.

Luo Cheng thought about it, and came back at noon today to take them to buy, although he didn't have any clothes, except for the military uniforms, which were overalls, but at least they were all unpatched clothes.

Get up and get dressed, the water in the kettle was already cold last night. It is too hard to make a fire and boil water, so you can only wash your face with cold water after brushing your teeth, which is indeed convenient to have tap water and a pool.

After washing, Xiaoyu and the others haven't come back yet, Luo Chengcheng guessed that they should be queuing up to buy meat, this farmers' market is not open so early, it is not necessary to wait if you go too early, but if you go early, you can at least line up in front. Some people go early in order to buy more fatty meat.

It seems that I can't wait for them to come back for this breakfast today, so I went straight to work and went to the breakfast shop to buy vegetarian buns.

Nghe An West Exit Farmers' Market.

Luo Xiaoyu and Shishi came earlier, but they are not the earliest, but they are still very early. As soon as the butcher shop in this market opened, everyone was quite conscious of queuing.

When you buy meat, you can compare where you want it to be and how much it costs, but you won't cut it and say don't want the middle or any part here.

It's November, and it's not yet the end of the year, so I can buy meat at this time. Either the purchase of small units, or the families are basically wealthy, at least the family is dual-income. Otherwise, this is not a New Year's Day, and even if there is a meat ticket, it is all saved for the New Year's Meat.

And now the people who come to buy meat are really one, two, two, two, and even half a tael of meat tickets. This kind of meat ticket is basically an additional benefit issued by the unit, otherwise the non-staple food is a ration of two taels of meat, and it is impossible to take it out to get one or two halves.

When it was Xiaoyu's turn, it happened that this same piece of meat was also fat and thin, just revealing a fatter face.

"Comrade, here, I want meat here, I'll buy a catty."

The comrades who sell meat forgot that it rained in Luo, although they sold things and did not look at people, but they came to buy meat in such shabby clothes, and it was still a catty. This is the first time I have seen a pound of meat, and if you want them to sell meat, you will not deviate much from cutting the meat almost as much as you slash down. This is also practiced all year round, and the matter of one knife is not directly cut.

"Little girl, where did you get this meat ticket?"

"My brother gave it, let's buy meat."

"Which unit is your brother from?"

"Auto repair shop."

After a brief inquiry, I just felt a little surprised, and they didn't keep asking about the meat sellers. Then he gestured to the part of Xiaoyu's finger just now and asked if he wanted it here.

"Little girl, who didn't give you the meat ticket and money, I feel that you stole it. There is an older brother who works in an auto repair shop, and he will dress like this, and he looks like a person from the countryside. ”

Suddenly, there was a questioning voice behind Luo Xiaoyu, and when he turned around, he was an aunt with an unkind face.

"What do you say, this is obviously given by my brother, so it wasn't stolen."

"Yes, my eldest brother gave it to us."

Luo Xiaoyu retorted angrily, and Shishi naturally proved it on the side.

But being scolded by the aunt who guessed so loudly, many people present didn't believe Xiaoyu and Shishi very much, dressed like this, and bought a pound of meat at once.

You said that if this brother was good to them, he would wear such shabby. If it weren't good, they would have so much money and a pound of meat tickets.

So even if Xiaoyu and Shishi explained, it caused more people to speculate, and the people who came to buy vegetables were basically aunts and uncles, and there were not many young people. They like to watch the excitement and gossip the most.

The comrade who sold the meat was also embarrassed at this time, he actually thought that it was better to have more than one thing, but in this scene, people accused the two little girls of being thieves, and the tickets and money came from the wrong way, so naturally the meat could not be cut.

But it's not difficult to do this, just prove your identity.

"The two girls are from the city."

"My brother works in an auto repair shop, and he lives here, and my sister and I are here to live with him."

"That is, you are not from the city, and you live with your eldest brother."

The meat seller asked, Luo Xiaoyu and Shishi both nodded.

This thing is simple, the clothes are dressed like this, and the people are from the countryside to take refuge in the big brother in the city. But you can't take their word for it.

"Then you can show everyone the certificate issued by your hometown, so as to save everyone from misunderstanding. I'll cut your meat right away. ”

"Proof ~~. We came in my brother's car, and we didn't get a certificate in the brigade. ”

"What about the certificate of the street office, if your brother works in the city, even if the brigade does not issue a certificate, he will take you to the street office to register."

I thought that this was the end of the matter, but the words of the two girls made the meat seller suspicious. It's not that you can't leave the village or township without a certificate. But when you go to other places, you don't prove that you basically can't do anything, where did you come from, what you do, it's not that you say it with your mouth, but look at the proof.

If it is a defection to relatives and there is really no proof, you can go to the neighborhood office to explain the situation and guarantee the certificate of the neighborhood office. However, if the person who defects to his relatives commits an accident, the guarantor is responsible.

"We only came here the night before yesterday, maybe my brother forgot about it, let's go back and ask my brother about it."

The meat seller looked at Xiaoyu and Shishi's expressions, and to be honest, they felt that what they said was true. But it's not something you can just let them go if you forget it. Not only can't they buy this meat now, but people don't want to leave.

The people took control and called for people to come to the police station to verify their words and identities. If it was really a thief, who stole something and let them go, he might have to be criticized.

The aunt saw that the two girls were controlled by the staff of the market, and she was a little proud in her heart, because she actually wanted the part of meat that the two girls wanted just now. I thought that the two girls would buy a little bit, and it should not be a big problem, but I didn't expect to ask for a catty.

Hearing the question of the comrade who sold meat, coupled with her observation, I felt that there was something wrong with these two girls. Even if it's okay, it's okay to say what doubts in your heart are okay.

Now it is advisable to report suspicious people and things around you, and if you really want to report other people's crimes, there may be a reward.
