Chapter 348: Keeping the New Year

The end of the year is getting closer and closer, and there are people in the production team who kill pigs every day.

Although the sound of the pig is too miserable, it is noisy every day, and the New Year's flavor is quite sufficient.

According to the task pig index, the pig that hands in the task must meet at least 120 catties.

In the past, when the food station came to collect the pigs, they were all according to the hands of the whole head.

After slaughtering half a head, there is really no precedent for this kind of pig collection standard.

The food station said that it wouldn't work, so Fu Jingyou went to He's side.

The He family also has two pigs this year, and Fu Jingyou took the lead from there to hand over the task.

When he killed his second pig later, Fu Jingyou sent half a fan to the He family.

The weight of half a pig is definitely not enough to catch up with a whole pig, but it is better because there are many fat flowers, all of them are good meat, and the He family has also had a year full of oil.

The toss between his own family members is not a loss.

The food station also has to pay for the pigs, and the grade of the pigs varies from 6 to 7 jiao per catty.

The pig that Fu Jingyou led from the He family was 132 catties, which exceeded the basic standard for the weight of the pig, and with a second grade, each catty was counted as three points of hexagon.

That's eighty-three dollars, one dime, and six cents.

The sausages I made before were quite successful, whether they were sliced and eaten with green garlic, or simmered with rice on the side of the pot, they tasted very good.

Fu Jingyou ate deliciously, and when he killed the pig, he left the pig farm and made some with Lu Miao.

On Chinese New Year's Eve, Fu Jingyou and Lu Miao finished dinner, cleaned up and brought the stove into the room.

Nuts and sugar cubes prepared in advance were laid out.

Dabao Erbao sat in the bed and grabbed candy and threw it to play, while Fu Jingyou and Lu Miao on the outside ate ate melon seeds without a match, took out all the accumulated income, and calculated the profit and loss of this year's income.

Fu Jingyou participated in the work of the county equipment group at the beginning of March, and worked from March to the end of the year, a full ten months, not counting subsidies, and the naked salary was thirty-seven a month.

After ten months, there were three hundred and seventy yuan.

At the end of the year, the two pigs took 216 yuan and 4 cents, and the total income before and after added up was more than 580 yuan.

Excluding daily expenses, there are still 356 yuan left in his hand, which are all 76 years of income.

This is not counting the ticket subsidies received by Fu Jingyou.

Some of those tickets are for their own families, and some are exchanged for three or five yuan for others.

Some industrial coupons and the like are very sought-after on the black market......

"It cost almost 300 yuan a year, and it is estimated that the combined expenses of several companies in the team cannot catch up with ours."

Lu Miao put the counted money into a small bulging pocket.

It was the family's savings from the past.

Originally, there were more than 400, and when she gave birth to a child and fell asleep, she spent more than 180 yuan before and after.

Now there are a lot of them, and they have a total of 600 deposits.

Fu Jingyou saw that her small pockets containing money were almost unstuffed, and she felt a sense of satisfaction in her heart.

"It's all spent on children and families, and you haven't bought anything yet."

Lu Miao glanced at him angrily:

"You buy a big set of my things every time you go out, what else can I buy?"

Fu Jingyou laughed, his handsome face was handsome and soft:

"Money can be saved slowly, and these are all things that should be spent."

Lu Miao nodded, and counted a handful of broken tickets alone.

"This is ten yuan, and I will go out tomorrow to pay New Year's greetings, and Min Min and Min Jie's New Year's money will come out from here...... One piece last year, let's give one back this year! ”

"You take the rest, and you will start work after the year, and there are children among colleagues, and you look at it."

Lu Miao babbled and instructed:

"It's far away, and my colleagues haven't moved around a bit, so you're the team leader, so take the time to invite them to a state-run restaurant for dinner."

"The pattern is open, and it can be regarded as a good luck at the beginning of the year."

"Okay."

Put the money away, one of the little couples circles a baby between their legs, knocks a few melon seeds by themselves, and peels one and presses it into the baby's mouth.

Dabao Erbao originally waved his hand blindly and got melon seeds everywhere.

Eating delicious melon seeds in the back, the two boys each groped to pick up, one hugged his mother's neck, staring at his mother's mouth snorting melon seeds.

One grabbed his father's clothes and pulled "ahhhh

"Stinky boy, reincarnated gluttonous cat."

Fu Jingyou slapped Dabao's buttocks, peeled two melon seeds and stuffed them into his mouth.

The little guy is like a little mouse, chewing melon seeds.

Don't look at the few millet teeth, people eat something, but they slip away.

Fu Jingyou's peeling speed can't keep up with the speed at which he eats.

In the end, Fu Jingyou stuffed a red date for Dabao and let Dabao pinch and gnaw it by himself.

Dabao is also easy to coax, so he really took the red date, sat on the side honestly and gnawed it.

Lu Miao shook her head inaudibly, and was amused by the father and son.

The two babies fell asleep one after another, and Lu Miao accompanied Fu Jingyou to keep the year until eleven o'clock, and she couldn't hold it anymore.

Fu Jingyou coaxed her: "You sleep first?" I'll be fine in a moment. ”

Lu Miao asked him in a daze, "What else do you have to do?" ”

"Wait for twelve o'clock, and go out to set off firecrackers."

Here's the custom.

I used to be poor, and I couldn't pick out half of my hand, so no one put it.

This year, most of the people in the team handed over the task pigs and took some money, and there should be a lot of people who set off firecrackers.

Lu Miao nodded in a daze, and for more than half an hour, she wanted to hold on, but she still didn't hold on, and her head tilted and fell asleep with Fu Jingyou's arms crooked.

Fu Jingyou put his arm around her and listened to the clock in the hall ring twelve times before carefully pulling out his arm.

He put on his clothes and took the firecrackers to the front of the door, near the threshing floor.

Many people in the team don't have clocks at home, and Fu Jingyou is a leader.

He was the first to set off firecrackers, and the production team also followed the "crackling" one after another.

The new year, 1977, officially began at this moment.

Not only on Chinese New Year's Eve, many people in the production team set off firecrackers, and on the first day of the new year, they went door to door to greet the New Year, and the firecrackers sounded a lot more than in previous years.

Lu Miao and Fu Jingyou held one in their arms and went to He's house to pay New Year's greetings.

Along the way, I met other uncles in the team who came to visit the New Year, and there was nothing to boast about when I saw Dabao Erbao.

"Look at this little face, little fat doll, it's really rare."

"The two little dolls will grow, Xiaoliu, Xiaoliu daughter-in-law, carved out of the same mold as you!"

"Hehe, it's ......"

While walking to He's house, He Hongjin set off a large string of firecrackers outside the door, Lu Miao and Fu Jingyou had already prepared and covered their ears for the two little ones in advance.

Tang Mei asked Fu Jingyou to bring back a large package of things, most of which were children's things.

For example, tiger head hats, tiger head boots, little red jackets, etc., are all double.

I came here today to pay New Year's greetings, and I wore these too.
