Chapter 393, Life Improves
With the rise of "great education", the school's ideological and moral courses, as well as weekday class meetings, have become courses for conveying ideas.
Yang Xiaole also had to sigh that the difference between high school students in this era and that era is really too big.
Independent-minded and passionate.
There was no movement in the first year of high school, but there was a lot of movement in the second and third years of high school.
But he also knows that it is not yet the peak season, and these people are not so bold.
After all, these people are also worried about affecting their college entrance examination.
You must know that no matter what family background you have, a comment from the school can make you unable to find a good major when you choose a major in the future.
It's just that in the school playground, everyone occasionally convenes small meetings to appeal to the children of cadres in the school who are popular but have poor grades.
Because "someone" once said to unite all the forces that can be united.
In terms of schools, on the one hand, it is necessary to implement the "line", maintain a "red" character, and take proper care of the children in the courtyard;
On the other hand, it is also necessary to protect and support the outstanding students among the children of intellectuals and create a better environment for them to grow up.
In other words, there are some contradictions between the two goals of "implementing the line" and "cultivating outstanding scientific and technological talents", and the situation of the school is indeed very awkward.
But the school is a place to teach and educate, and the results are self-evident.
It's not just schools.
It's the same in the compound.
When I came home from school that night and had dinner, Wang Qiuju, Uncle Wang, and Uncle Zhao called the people in the big courtyard together.
Since the last time, Director Zhang came to look for him, and after retiring, the old lady also became a representative of the neighborhood committee as she wished.
The subsidy is seven dollars and two cents a month.
While taking care of the children at home, washing and cooking for the family, the old lady took the children to the neighborhood committee from time to time, and was very busy.
Although Yang Xiaole saw that the old lady was busy, he did not persuade her to give up.
It's still okay to find something to do.
It's easy to get sick when you're idle at home.
Today, the old lady is in charge of reading the newspapers issued by the neighborhood committee, mainly to convey the correctness of the "education" line, and never forget the class ......
"Hey, brother, did you think of you when you said that my mother read this?"
In the middle of her thoughts, Kiko asked with a smile.
Yang Xiaole rolled his eyes.
If you open it up, he is the biggest bourgeoisie hidden among the masses in the compound.
And do bad things!
Then he glanced at this guy, if this thing dares to mess around in the future, he promises to send this guy to the hardest place to exercise.
Looking back, everyone listened quietly, and from time to time someone echoed a sentence or two.
Yang Xiaole also found that with the popularization of this "great education", people's concept of socialism has become clearer.
After the meeting, everyone dispersed, and Wang Qiuju also happily returned to her home.
Fiddling with her good grandson has now become her first big thing.
……
In late October, one night, with the busyness of the Yang family, the second new member of the family was ushered in.
Xiaoqiu.
For daughters, as a patriarchal era, naturally they don't pay so much attention to it.
But it's also relative.
The treatment that should be there is naturally still there, plus it is the second child, it is not so tormenting, and it was born in seven or eight hours.
……
As people slowly came out of the difficult times, people's food rations gradually began to recover a lot.
In the spring of '64, the expected food rations finally returned to their previous normal levels.
Although there is not much meat, the meat of five taels per capita still allows the people in the compound to taste the taste of meat once a week.
Even the cooking oil is still too little, and the ration of three taels has not recovered so far.
This morning, I got out of the bed and went to school step by step.
The inverted spring cold is indeed cold.
I just took off my padded jacket two days ago, and this spring rain came, and I put the thick padded jacket on again.
Wearing a padded jacket to the school.
As soon as I came in, I saw Yu Wenbin and these people discussing there impassionedly.
"Something big is wrong~"
And Feng Aijun pulled him.
Yang Xiaole looked at it suspiciously, and saw a newspaper on the table, which was the newspaper of the daily newspaper.
It reads: The students of the third (1) class of the sixth middle school and the third year of the fourth high school have written a letter to someone above, reflecting some of the line problems of the school's * branch.
And the above will also send a working group to No. 6 Middle School to investigate this matter.
Seeing this, Yu Wenbin said there: "The school committee of the sixth middle school, this is a mistake on the issue of the line, and it has not been solved well" Who do you rely on? Who to unite? "Questions."
He believes that the children of their compound are the first choice for unity.
And Du Tao and these people were muttering quietly; "We believe that the Sixth Middle School has implemented the line well, and has achieved ingredients but not only ingredients, but also performance."
Although Du Tao successfully received the notice of joining T at the end of last year, he still doesn't have much confidence when he speaks now.
However, this sentence was said by someone, and Yu Wenbin is not easy to refute.
The group was arguing there, but it was only a small argument, and the sophomores and juniors had already started to act.
A group of "small groups" were organized spontaneously, and these were the children of the big yard and the workers.
"Hey, although I don't think Yu Wenbin's kid is happy, he seems to be right! More than eighty percent of today's college students are the children of intellectuals and the children of the rich. ”
Feng Aijun was also muttering there beside him.
Yang Xiaole listened to Feng Aijun's words and pondered there.
He is also right, most of the people who can go to university now are at least the children of wealthy families in the past, or the children of intellectuals.
After all, starting out is different.
The situation has been slightly better in the past few years.
However, the increase is only some urban children, and there are still too few college students in rural areas, and the foundation is different.
looked at Hua Yourong who was curiously watching there, as well as Du Tao.
These people don't feel any danger at all.
Because in their opinion, some people at the bottom are more extreme, which is a normal thing, as long as the above does not change for them, then it is fine.
It's not just Hua Yourong, Du Tao, most rich children think so.
"Hey, have you heard, the students of the High School Affiliated to Qing University, because of this controversy."
In the midst of my thoughts, someone muttered there.
Yang Xiaole looked over, it was Li Baoguo.
Qingda High School was established only a few years ago, it was just established in 60, and the first senior high school just graduated last year.
However, most of the children in this school are the children of cadres and high-level intellectuals.
The children of ordinary people are hardly visible.
After listening to it for a while, I understood.
There are a lot of children of high-level intellectuals there, and they don't belong to the rich people, so they have more confidence than Du Tao and others.
It can be seen that it is relatively rare to become a high-level one.
For this argument, the school was divided into two teams, and there were several fights at the same time.
"Hey, Yang Xiaole, Tuan W has a meeting today and after school in the afternoon, remember to participate!"
In the midst of his thoughts, a boy's voice came from the door.
Yang Xiaole looked up.
He shouted to the visitor, "Oh, okay, I got it." ”
The grade is the branch, and the high school of the whole school is the regiment W, as the first person in the school to enter T, he still has a name in it.
The secretary of the 1st class.
In the first year of high school, the deputy branch secretary of the grade.
As for the branch secretary of the grade, his surname is Chen Xiaolu, his name is not loud, but his father's name is quite loud.
Members are required to participate in regular learning and education.
As for the school group, W is naturally a teacher at the school.
This is not the afterlife, and it is very important now.
For the affairs of the fourth and sixth middle schools, everyone is just watching the excitement, but many students in the school are becoming more and more dissatisfied with the management of the school.
Needless to say, the only contradiction is the issue of member review of the T.
……
Although everyone was still in class normally, it was obvious that the students' emotions were a little impetuous.
The good thing is that everyone is waiting, waiting for the working group to give a decision on this matter.
If the matter of these students writing letters is affirmed, then it is estimated that the major schools will follow the same example of these people and promote the "great education" to the end.
Therefore, whether it is better to have two points of red or five points of white has become one of the questions discussed by students now.
Afternoon.
Yang Xiaole went to the meeting normally.
There are six classes in the first year of high school, and one person normally comes.
There were more than 20 people from the three grades.
On the stage are teachers and third-year students, and the main purpose of this meeting is naturally to convey it.
Let the people from each class guide the students when they go back.
That is, to calm the anger.
At the same time, it is the preparation and review of joining the Youth League this spring.
And this time, the concept conveyed by the meeting is that the people recruited this time are all people who have to be popular.
But you have to be of good character.
Yang Xiaole followed and held a meeting.
Listen quietly.
After the meeting, Yang Xiaole looked at Chen Xiaolu next to him, and the other party's face was really similar to that person.
At the end of the meeting, the other party had already run to the stage to discuss with teachers and students.
And he quietly left the school.
……
Because of the meeting, it was dark when I got home, and the whole family was eating at home.
In a wooden children's bed.
Five-month-old Xiaoqiu was lying inside.
In three or four months, the child will turn over, and now it is very dishonest.
"Hey, big niece! Let the second uncle hug. ”
In the summer, Yang Xiaole also loves him a lot, but relatively speaking, he prefers Xiaoqiu.
After all, he doesn't have a patriarchal mentality.
The little guy's body is still relatively soft, and after he picked it up, he muttered with his teeth and claws: "Two, ah? ”
I can't tell if it's two or ah!
Yang Xiaole hugged the little girl and said to the old lady: "Mother, you are three years old, you can go to kindergarten this summer, and you still feed you?" Who fed him when he went to kindergarten! ”
Wang Qiuju said angrily: "What are you doing in kindergarten?" What else can I learn when I go? Won't I take care of my children at home? ”
Then he looked at his eldest son: "Why do you have to send it to kindergarten?" Didn't you all go to kindergarten when you were young, and now you're going to college! ”
The eldest brother was also helpless for a while: "Mother, when he goes to school, he can at least have friends to play with, and you can be a little more relaxed." ”
This question has been said many times, but the old lady just doesn't like it.
"Three dollars a month, that's not money!"
Wang Qiuju muttered, and was about to chew and feed the summer rice.
"Hey, hey! ~”
Seeing this, Yang Xiaole hurriedly stopped it.
The old lady's movements are really nothing in the countryside, but in the city, many people are not used to chewing their mouths for their children.
The most opposed ones are naturally him and Ding Ruolan.
One is that it is easy to cause contradictions, and the other is that it is unhygienic.
I don't know in private.
But on the surface, as long as he saw it, he still had to stop it.
Seeing this, Wang Qiuju looked at her daughter-in-law, then at her eldest son, and finally swallowed it herself.
I got some food for the little guy again.
Yang Xiaole put down the babbling little guy, and saw that the little guy didn't cry, knowing that he was not hungry.
"Hey, you're a little biased!"
The old lady watched him put the little guy down to eat, and said with a smile.
Ding Ruolan and the eldest brother smiled indifferently.
It can be seen that Yang Xiaole prefers Xiaoqiu.
The eldest sister was there and laughed: "Yes, it's really eccentric, after pooping in the summer before, Xiaole ran away immediately." Xiaoqiu, he didn't run, and he changed her diaper! ”
And the summer is pouted: "Second Uncle Xiaoluo, I don't like summer." ”
Yang Xiaole rolled his eyes: "It's eating here!" ”
His throat and eyes are indeed shallow.
Then he looked at the summer: "If you have no conscience, I won't give you anything delicious in the future." ”
I'm good to him, what do you want?
Anyway, just let the eldest brother pay a little attention when eating.
Milk powder, condensed milk, malt milk essence, these children like to drink at home has basically not been broken.
"Apricot is estimated to get married on May Day."
In the midst of her thoughts, the old lady suddenly spoke.
Yang Xiaole was stunned when he heard this.
Apricot is naturally the eldest daughter of Widow Tian's family, and she goes to work for Widow Tian's man, and she is going to get married in a blink of an eye.
"How old is she?"
"It's 20 years old."
Hearing this, Yang Xiaole was stunned for a while, he remembered that when he first came, Xingzi was a little girl.
It's twenty now.
But think about myself being eighteen this year, and I am an adult.
Suddenly, something was wrong.
Seeing this, the old lady said to the eldest brother: "Boss, if the apricot gets married, remember to give a gift!" When you get married and have children, they all give money, whether you do it or not, this gift must be repaid. ”
The reason why we didn't do it was because the current situation was not very good.
If this is done, there will be no last meal for a period of time in the future.
The eldest brother naturally nodded: "I know Mother, you can help me give it first, and I will give you the money." ”
The old lady nodded slightly, saw that Xizi's arms and crutches were whitened, and glared at him: "Such a big person, I don't know what to pay attention to when I wear clothes all day long." Is it another fight? ”
Xizi glanced at the corner of her arm and said with a smile: "Where, I don't know where the grinding is." ”
The old lady glared at him, and then muttered there: "I don't know when this cloth ticket is a head." Make up for it and it's gone. ”
Seeing this, Yang Xiaole smiled and said: "Mother, I have already asked you to buy some clothes, but you don't do it, you can't buy it now, right?" ”
In the past, you could buy ready-made clothes at department stores without tickets.
Now for four consecutive years, the quota of cloth tickets has been more than four feet, and it has not been restored until now.
The previous impact has not passed now, it can only be said that it is slightly better, and even the level of 57 years has not recovered, and I don't know when it will recover.
At this time, the clothes were all cotton and unworn.
Now the textile factory on Uncle's side has stricter control over defective cloth, which is not as easy to get as it used to be.
In addition to the clothes that are now finished, industrial coupons are charged.
Dozens of dollars of clothes, dozens of industrial coupons.
It's been a long time since you've worn new clothes.
Yang Xiaole didn't go all the way to get it, except for the factory that issued work clothes, the other people basically wore clothes with patches.
This is true for both adults and children.
He didn't want his family to be too special.
Just wear a good thing inside, eat a good one, and wear a coat on the outside with the market.
Then a few people chatted there.
Yang Xiaole also asked about the situation of the eldest brother in the unit.
"Oh, now the unit is very busy, and the above is going to prepare for a big competition for the whole army, although the security departments of our various organs and units will not participate, they will also receive training......
The eldest brother briefly explained the situation.
And next to him, Kiko asked there, "Brother, what kind of gun are you using?" Is there a cannon? Last time, our military training was not enjoyable at all, and we fired more than a dozen bullets. ”
"It's a Type 56, and if it's an anti-aircraft gun, it's a few shots."
Yang Xiaole listened there.
Know it's flexing muscles.
Because the situation is not very good now.
Not only this, but also the militia competition, Shandong has gathered the strength of a province to hold a militia competition.
It's been in the papers, but it's not started yet.
"Hey, by the way, Xiaole, if you can get a lot of lard, get more for our yard."
In the middle of his thoughts, Wang Qiuju muttered to him.
Yang Xiaole was stunned for a moment: "Lard? Get it in the compound? What about tickets? ”
Hearing this, Xizi smiled: "Second brother, you don't know yet!" This afternoon, the food company has issued a notice that from today, pork, eggs, chickens, and ducks will be available openly, without meat tickets. ”
(From BJ City, Non-staple Food Business Journal.) Meat tickets and egg tickets will still be recollected later, but not in the past few years. What year will you want meat tickets, you should be able to guess. The amount of oil still hasn't moved. )
Yang Xiaole smacked his lips and nodded with a smile: "That's okay, I'll take a look!" ”
Open supply, then there is no need to hide here.
However, even if the supply is open, meat is not eaten every day.
In the past few years, it has basically emptied the pockets of the people, and there are few families that can leave money.
1 yuan a catty, not every day.
He also knows why he wants to make lard, the current ration of edible oil has not risen, and lard has naturally become the best substitute for edible oil.
Now in the absence of oil, lard is not so casually bought.
It doesn't matter, you can't get it.
After all, lard accounts for too small a proportion of pork.
That's it.
"How much?"
Yang Xiaole asked casually.
"A family needs three or five pounds, and they can eat for a lot of time."
Wang Qiuju underestimated it there.
Yang Xiaole nodded slightly, lard is cheaper than meat, only seven cents a catty, and the price of edible oil is eight cents and sixty-one catties.
No matter how you calculate, it is more cost-effective than eating soybean oil.
And there's oil residue!
Sure enough, no one is stupid.
This is especially true for people who are sensitive to the essentials of daily life.
I only heard Wang Qiuju muttering there: "It's better to eat lard in the future!" Soybean oil is more than eight cents ......"
In general, the meaning is the same as what he thinks.
Yang Xiaole rolled his eyes.
Ordinary people are stupid?
It's not like you can't get it!
"Now it's okay, the people in the compound don't have to eat stew every day. We eat stew every day. ”
Kiko muttered there.
Without oil, you can't stir-fry vegetables, so you can only eat stews every day, and it's rare to eat a stir-fry.
The family also began to eat stew.
Wang Qiuju glared at him angrily: "It's the same as treating you badly for eating stew!" ”
This caused everyone to burst into laughter.
Although the family eats stewed vegetables, the ingredients in it are not very small every time.
Yang Xiaole didn't care about a few people, thinking that now that the citizens are open to supply, the restaurants in the market will definitely not accept meat tickets.
Upon inquiry, it turned out to be true.
Moreover, in the restaurant, there are also two systems of food stamps, one is the parity of the grain stamps, and the other is the negotiated grain (twice the price of the parity grain). No food stamps are charged.
In general, it has been developed in a good direction.
It is estimated that by the end of the year, or next year, it will be able to return to the standard of living in 57.
