Seeing off the two of them, Qin Jiang and the others got busy.

Qin Jiang and Qin Qing went down to fetch water, and they would use it to clean the house later, while Qin Xi used the stove to cook first.

At this time, she had to rejoice that there were still more than a dozen honeycomb coals in this house, and this coal was generously given to them by Aunt Luo, otherwise, she would not be able to eat this hot meal at noon today.

The coal stove is quite bulky, Qin Xi directly brought the stove out, feeling that cooking in the house, smoky and burning, is not a thing, after a long time, it is not good for the house, or it is convenient outside, at this time, there are few kitchens in the building, everyone is cooking in the corridor outside.

The area of the house in the tube building is limited, and at this time the housing is tight, and the rooms are not enough to live, so how can there be a kitchen at home.

It's also good to cook outside, the smell of choking fumes is gone when the wind blows.

It's simple to eat something hot at noon, that's right, it's white porridge, and it's not very convenient to do anything else, and besides, it's been a busy day, and now she just wants to clean up the room where she sleeps, and then talk about it, everything else is tomorrow.

Qin Jiang's thoughts are similar to Qin Xi's, he has been tossing for too long, he got up early yesterday morning and started to take the car, along the way, in addition to taking the car or the car, his body and bones are going to be turned upside down, there is no time to stop, and he has not slept well at night.

If you don't rest, I don't know if this house can be cleaned well, and people will definitely not be able to stand it.

This tube building has four floors, Qin Xi and their rented house is on the third floor, there are two households on the first floor, the whole building lives eight families, the house next door to Qin Xi's house, the door is locked, I don't know if no one lives in it, or if there are people, but no one is at home at noon.

They went up and down, in and out, and soon, the people at home in this building knew that the house of Luo Lao's family on the third floor was rented out.

Qin Xi was still cooking outside, so Qin Jiang took Qin Qing to wipe down the tables, chairs and benches at home, and these furniture were all to be used for dinner later.

The white porridge is shredded with pickles, and the one that three people eat is called a fragrant, and they have been hungry for a long time, and they will finally eat at this time, which is really not easy!

Eat and drink enough, even if you want to sleep again, you must clean up the bed, because there are only two big quilts to cover at home, so even if there are three rooms and three beds at home, Qin Xi still lives with Qin Qing and sleeps in the same bed.

If the two sisters want to separate, they have to wait for another big quilt to be made at home.

The stove and the iron pot were taken back to the house, the door was closed, the lock was bolted, and the three of them went to bed to make up for sleep.

The winter in Xiang'an City is very cold, this place is much colder than Yongxin County, at this time, Yongxin County during the day, the temperature is eight or nine degrees, even at night, there are two or three degrees, but Xiang'an City, there are only two or three degrees during the day, and it is below zero at night.

They are not short of food for the time being, because they brought more than 100 catties of grain, and one of the two baskets picked by Qin Jiang was filled with grain.

Those bits and pieces at home, as long as they are easy to carry, they are all brought here, and it is a little troublesome to move, if it weren't for the trouble of sending things now, and the price is still very expensive, it is not cost-effective, Qin Xi would have chosen to mail it a long time ago.

Now the most important thing is the problem of heating, Qinjiang and Qinxi have been admitted to Xiang'an University, and the hukou has naturally been transferred to the name of the school, so I don't know if they can get honeycomb coal tickets.

Qin Qing's household registration is still in the countryside, in Chenhui Village, and has not been transferred.

At this time, the hukou is not so good, and it is okay to transfer the urban hukou to the rural hukou, which is relatively simple, but it is difficult to transfer the rural hukou to the urban hukou.

At present, Qin Xi knows two, one is to take the university entrance examination, directly apply for the certificate, and transfer to the school, and the other is to find a job in the city, and when the time comes, he can be directly attached to the work unit.

Fortunately, there are no restrictions on reading at this time, even if it is a country child, when he enters the city, he can also enter the school to study, unlike later generations, and he got a school district house out.

Eat casually in the evening, early the next morning, Qin Xi and Qin Jiang went to Sister Li to ask about buying coal, and this matter really belongs to them, because Xiang'an University is really classified as their area.

But now, they can't get coal tickets yet, because they have just reported their enrollment and the hukou matter has not been completely implemented.

At this time, every household was short of coal, and it was impossible to borrow, but Li Shulan knew a place where there might be carbon to sell, and it could also support it for a period of time, and it was enough to cook.

Qinxi and Qinjiang have a monthly ration of grain, you can go to the canteen to exchange for meal tickets, or you can take the grain book yourself to buy grain and come back to make it.

The school has government subsidies, and the meals are okay, but considering Qin Qing's eating problem, the two of them eat breakfast and dinner at home, at most they have a lunch at school.

Qinxi Qinjiang followed the route he had written, walked all the way and asked all the way, turned two big turns, and after walking for more than 20 minutes, he finally found the alley.

This is not a black market, this is a small farmer's market, can also be called a pigeon market, after the production team pays the grain, the rest of the things can be taken here to exchange for money, usually the farmers can not eat the eggs and vegetables, can also be traded here, but the number of retail transactions can not be large, the number of more nature will change.

After Qinxi Qinjiang arrived at the place, he found that there were not many people who set up stalls here, only a few people remained here, one was selling bamboo utensils, such as baskets, bamboo bowls, bamboo spoons, two were selling vegetables, and the remaining one was selling carbon, but it was not much, half a sack, about eight or nine catties.

Qinjiang Qinxi went straight to the carbon seller and asked, "How is this carbon sold?" ”

Those two people are from Hongxing Farm on the edge of Xiang'an City, and they sell white carbon, which is better and more resistant to burning than ordinary black charcoal, and there is no smoke.

In the past, as soon as the carbon of their farm arrived, it would be bought, very popular, today's business is not very good, it is more than nine o'clock, and there is still a little left to sell, the two are still thinking, wait a while, if no one comes, they will go back, this day is too cold, standing in the alley, the wind is blowing! My heart is cold.

"Three cents and five pounds, no bargaining, this is from the farm." The tall man in the lead said in a trembling voice.

As soon as Qin Xi and Qin Jiang heard it, they understood what was going on, they couldn't be the master of the collective things, and how many things they brought back would have to be brought back.

"We all want it, can we come with this bag?" They were in such a hurry, and they didn't bring anything, so they came.

"No, we still need to use this bag, you can go and buy a bamboo basket to hold carbon."

When Qin Xi heard this, he felt that there was nothing unacceptable, and he only brought one of the bamboo back baskets he bought in the countryside, and the other one was inconvenient to bring, so it was good to buy one and put it back.
