Most of these villagers are elderly aunts, but also young daughters-in-law and unmarried daughters, who come in pairs, and are chatting quietly on the threshing floor at this time, chatting happily and showing a simple smile.

The round-faced little daughter-in-law saw Liu Xing coming out with Liu Qiuyuan and Liu Dongju, and hurriedly greeted her: "I didn't expect it! I'm back again." ”

"They all wanted to buy shoes from your house, but they didn't know the way, so I brought them here. The round-faced little daughter-in-law pointed to the villagers on the threshing floor and introduced with a smile.

"You have to remember, give me a discount next time I come to buy shoes!" The round-faced little daughter-in-law saw that Liu Xing was a little confused, so she couldn't help but remind her.

"Definitely, definitely!" Liu Xing nodded.

"Then I'll go first. After the round-faced little daughter-in-law spoke, she turned around and walked towards the country road. I wanted to stay and watch the excitement, but I had to cook in this house, so I'd better go back first.

Liu Xingmu saw him off, and then came back to his senses and greeted the villagers who were buying shoes on the threshing floor to the hall.

An aunt with gray temples was happy to see that the floor of the hall was full of slippers and sandals, and she stepped forward and grabbed Liu Xing's hand: "Xing Yanzi, you are really promising now! I think you kid was still stealing mulberries from my mulberry tree to eat! In the blink of an eye, you will make shoes without a teacher to subsidize your family, which is really amazing." ”

"Aunt Wang, don't you reveal my scars back then, okay?" Liu Xing couldn't help but laugh when he heard this: "Your dog is still alive, right? At that time, the bones of my leg were exposed." ”

"You said that you are blessed! I died early, and I couldn't eat enough for this year, and raising a dog was naturally a sin. Aunt Wang sighed lightly: "I want to buy a pair of shoes for my granddaughter, she is in the second grade, I don't know if there are shoes for sale?"

"Yes, there should be. Liu Xing saw that the other villagers were very well-behaved, and did not mess around, but quietly gathered around and waited, and immediately asked: "How big are your granddaughter's shoes? ”

"She's wearing a size 32. At the mention of her granddaughter, Aunt Wang couldn't be happier.

Obviously, her granddaughter is very caring, otherwise it wouldn't be this expression.

Liu Xing bent down to take the shoes and sandals when he heard this, but Liu Dongju asked: "Aunt Wang, your craftsmanship in collecting shoe soles in Daohua Village is famous, as long as you go to the supply and marketing cooperatives to buy some needlework and thread, and buy a few pairs of cloth shoe bottoms, isn't it good to make a few pairs for your granddaughter? Why come to my brother to buy them?"

Liu Qiuyuan had the same doubts.

Of course, he doesn't know how to put on the soles, so he doesn't know the inside story.

Aunt Wang shook her head when she heard this: "Do you think I don't want to give my granddaughter soles! The key is that you can't buy anything in the supply and marketing cooperatives without a ticket now! Take the bottom material and fabric of cloth shoes as an example, you can use the rags in your home instead, but now we can't even buy the clothes we wear in the countryside, where are the rags!"

"If you go to the supply and marketing cooperatives to buy, the price is not as good as buying a pair of cloth shoes, which is too expensive, and there is no ticket. A short aunt followed.

"That's it!" Liu Dongju suddenly realized.

Liu Xing was also a little touched when he heard it.

Five or three years ago, women in rural areas who were idle at home could use needles and threads to make the soles of their shoes.

After all, at that time, the use of tickets had not yet begun, as long as you had money, you could buy what you wanted, at least daily necessities would not be restricted.

But after five or three years, that changed.

Because you need a ticket to buy anything.

It's useless if you have money without a ticket.

In the first few years, all kinds of bills were still able to be issued in full to the rural areas.

Later, for various reasons, fewer and fewer bills were issued to rural areas.

In the end, in some remote areas, there are not even a few bills that are not seen throughout the year.

So the peasants had to rely on their own hands to support themselves.

But needlework, cloth, matches, and other household necessities cannot be produced in the countryside!

This creates a very deformed situation.

Many peasant families have no clothes to wear.

They are barefoot in summer and winter.

Some of the conditions are good, you can buy a few pairs of straw sandals to wear.

If the conditions are not good, or if you encounter any three diseases and two pains.

Not to mention wearing clothes, I'm afraid I won't even be able to eat.

Of course, such cases are also a minority, and they are not representative of everyone.

However, the shortage of cloth has indeed existed for a long time in rural areas.

This has also created the current situation, the rural aunt has the craftsmanship to store the soles, but there are no materials for her to make them.

Say a thousand things and ten thousand, in fact, the above policies are all good.

But there are some unscrupulous traders under his hands, that is, the uncles of the supply and marketing cooperatives.

In order to make money, they monopolized some scarce bills such as cloth bills.

In the end, this situation was created.

But Liu Xing knows that this phenomenon was particularly prominent in the early eighties. But it definitely won't last long. Because as soon as the policy of reform and opening up is relaxed, those ugly behaviors that cannot be seen will have nowhere to hide and disappear in the tide of the times.

And he used the experience of rebirth to make shoes monopolized by the supply and marketing cooperatives from old tires.

In fact, it is also standing on the cusp of declaring war on the old era and seeking benefits for the broad masses of people in the countryside.

Of course, there must be risks involved, but the memories brought by rebirth can help him quietly resolve them.

Thinking of this, Liu Xing smiled and handed a pair of size 32 sandals to Aunt Wang: "It's time for you to come, and there is only this pair of small-size sandals." ”

"Oh, that's good, how much?" Aunt Wang asked happily.

"The children's sandals are four and the adults' are five. Liu Xing glanced at everyone in the hall, and then said the price.

The previous group of villagers did not dislike the high price, and he felt that this group of villagers would not be able to do so, so he had enough confidence to speak.

Sure enough.

"Oops! It's not expensive at all, this handwork, this quality, it's worth it. Aunt Wang took out a large stack of gross tickets and split tickets, and after counting, she took out four yuan and handed it to Liu Xing: "Xing Yanzi, you take the money, my old man won't ask for your shoes in vain." ”

"This ......" Liu Xing looked at the thick stack of tickets, and he was a little afraid to take it for a while.

Because he knows that this money is only afraid that Aunt Wang has saved it for a long time.

If you accept this, I'm afraid it will be heavy.

Liu Dongju on the side saw Liu Xing's thoughts, but she didn't want to break the rules because of a momentary softness, so she stepped forward to help take the money: "Aunt Wang, I will accept this money on behalf of my brother, and it will be clear that my brother's shoe store has opened in the market, if you go over to support it, I will definitely give you a discount." ”

"Good, good!" Aunt Wang smiled happily.

If it weren't for the family's financial constraints, she would definitely have bought more than one pair of shoes today.

After all, you don't need a shoe ticket to buy shoes here in Liu Xing, and the price is fair.

I heard that Liu Xing would open a shoe store in the market in the future, and she could give him discounts, to be honest, she was really surprised, of course, she also liked it.

When the other villagers saw that Aunt Wang had bought the shoes they wanted, they were afraid that they would not be able to buy them later, so they immediately surrounded Liu Xing one by one and reported the size and style of the shoes one after another.

This lively scene made Liu Dongju see it, and he was happy.

But she was also afraid that there would be an accident because there were too many people and there would be a quarrel in the end, so after pulling Liu Xing out of the crowd, she said: "Is it okay for the big guys to line up?"

"Yes! Liu Xing followed.

As soon as these words came out, all the villagers quieted down and lined up with a smile.

Seeing this, Liu Xing even chose shoes for a little daughter-in-law who was ranked first, while Liu Qiuyuan and Liu Dongju were collecting money and looking for money on the side.

Melon seeds and small ones also came to help, serving tea and water to the villagers who had bought shoes, and moving chairs to sit on.

After all, these shoes are all villagers from the surrounding villages, although most of them can't be named, but they all know each other.

Aunt Wang, who bought the shoes, couldn't help but hug the melon seeds when she saw that the melon seeds were so well-behaved, she saw Zhou Qiuxiang busy cooking lunch in the kitchen, and walked over in a daze: "Sister Qiuxiang, are you busy?"

"Ouch, Aunt Wang, why are you here today?" Zhou Qiuxiang looked at Aunt Wang at the door of the kitchen with some surprise, with a smile in her eyes.

"Go to your house to buy shoes!" Aunt Wang raised the sandals in her hand, she saw half a bowl of white cut meat on the stove in the kitchen, and the best pork ribs fried in the pot, and suddenly put down the little peanut in her hand in some surprise: "Your family can eat meat for lunch now?"

"What's the matter, it's just that Xing Yanzi has made some money recently, doesn't this improve his life. Zhou Qiuxiang replied modestly.

"That's also something that my family can't compare, and it can't be compared to other families around me. Aunt Wang looked around enviously, and saw that only the melon seeds were there, so she asked in a low voice: "Does your star have a partner?

Liu Xing's family is living in such good conditions now, no matter who marries, they will definitely be happy.

So she had to get there first, so that she wouldn't regret it later.

"Huh?" Zhou Qiuxiang was stunned when she heard this, and then had a headache: "Your niece is bigger than my star girl! This is not good, even if I agree, the star girl will not agree." ”

"What are you afraid of when you're a little older, a female junior hugs a gold brick!" Aunt Wang persuaded her.

"Is your niece a little older? the same age as my family Dongju. Zhou Qiuxiang couldn't help but say.

"This ...... How do you know. "Aunt Wang is a little embarrassed.

"He is a classmate of my family Dong Ju, can you not know this?" Zhou Qiuxiang was afraid that Aunt Wang would chase after him as a matchmaker for his family Liu Xing, and even said at the moment: "And your niece's figure must be more than 100 pounds, right? ”

"Oh! It's not more than 100 pounds! It seems to be only more than 90 pounds. After Aunt Wang said this, when she thought of her niece's 'tonnage', she suddenly felt a little unbelievable that she had opened her mouth.

After smiling, she continued: "That's it, that's it, my niece is not worthy of your star girl, after all, the star girl is talented, and now she also has a craft, or I will go to Liu Sheng's house for you to tell you that his daughter is good-looking and is in the third year of junior high school!"

"You can pull it in! The daughters of the Liu family have not yet left the Five Lakes, and they are our own people of the Liu family. Zhou Qiuxiang glanced at Aunt Wang, and then couldn't help laughing: "Don't talk to me, stay and eat lunch later, let's have a good chatter?"

She knew that Aunt Wang's original intention was good, but her mouth was a little broken.

Of course, she herself wanted to find a favorite daughter-in-law for Liu Xing, so she had the meaning of letting Aunt Wang stay for dinner.

"I'm afraid that I will eat your meat and I won't be able to sleep at night when I go back. After pinching the little face of the melon seeds, Aunt Wang said goodbye with a smile and left.

Zhou Qiuxiang didn't go to keep Aunt Wang, after all, there are a lot of people in the hall now.

This entertains this one, but what about the others?

So it's better to treat everyone equally.
