Chapter 232: Solution Ten

Chapter 232 Solution (10)

After Lu Xiaoxiao finished her lunch, she looked at the time and it was almost two o'clock, so she walked towards the bullock cart.

When Lu Xiaoxiao came to the bullock cart, she saw Uncle Liu sitting there helpless, so she asked: "Liu Shu, have you encountered any difficulty?"

"Hey... wasn't my second daughter-in-law pregnant last month? She was originally very happy, but she has been dizzy since the past few days. Yesterday she went to the hospital for a checkup and the doctor said it was anemia and malnutrition.

In this era when everyone doesn't have enough to eat, how can we pay attention to those things? The doctor said that if the second daughter-in-law's nutrition cannot be kept up, it will be very difficult for her to survive the pregnancy."

"Uncle Liu, did the doctor tell me what to eat?"

"Eggs, brown sugar water, and preferably malted milk if you have money and know-how. You said that even if we country people have money, we don't have the money to buy those things."

"Uncle Liu, I have a way to help you get some brown sugar, but the price is more expensive than that from the supply and marketing cooperative."

Uncle Liu's eyes lit up after hearing this, and then he whispered: "Xiao Xiao, are you telling the truth? I haven't even bought it on the black market before."

"Really, I can go and help you get it now, but Uncle Liu, you have to wait a little longer."

"Okay, okay... As long as we can get brown sugar, don't wait a little longer. Uncle Liu can't wait until tomorrow."

After Lu Xiaoxiao left the bullock cart, she thought that she had not received the subsidy for two months, so she walked towards the post office.

When Lu Xiaoxiao came to the post office, it was still the same comrade who handled the procedures for her. He kindly gave her an envelope and said it would be safer to put the money in it.

After Lu Xiaoxiao thanked the enthusiastic comrade, she left the post office and walked towards the bullock cart.

"Xiaoxiao, why are you back so soon?"

"Uncle, the person was not busy when I went there, so I bought it quickly."

After Lu Xiaoxiao said this, she was afraid that Uncle Liu would not believe it, so she used the cover of her backpack to take out a pound of brown sugar wrapped in oil paper from the space, and then secretly handed it to him.

After taking the oil paper bag, Uncle Liu opened a corner and looked at it. The helpless expression on his face disappeared in an instant. He carefully rewrapped the oil paper bag and put it in his pocket, and then he breathed a sigh of relief.

"Xiaoxiao, how much does this brown sugar cost?"

Lu Xiaoxiao thought that the brown sugar from the supply and marketing cooperative cost 1.2 yuan per pound and required sugar coupons. On the black market, it was estimated to cost around 2.5 yuan per pound without coupons, so she decided to pick the middle price.

"Uncle Liu, I bought this for one yuan and eighty pounds free of charge."

"Then what you bought is really cheap. I went to the black market this morning and asked for two and a half yuan per catty, but it was still unavailable."

"I'm lucky this time too."

"Uncle Liu, thank you no matter what. I'll ask your aunt to send the money to your house when I get back."

"good."

Although there is a lot of brown sugar in Lu Xiaoxiao's space, it doesn't matter even if she gives that pound of brown sugar to Uncle Liu, but there is a conflict between rice and rice, so it is better to calculate clearly.

It was past three o'clock in the afternoon when the oxcart returned to the village. Lu Xiaoxiao said goodbye to Uncle Liu and walked back home.

After returning home, Lu Xiaoxiao took off her backpack and put it away, then went into the kitchen to wash her face, and then went out and walked towards Liu Meihua's house.

She must tell Liu Meihua and Liu Shuyu what she had agreed with Secretary Liu in the county seat today, so that they can act better tomorrow.

"Sister Meihua, are you at home?"

Liu Meihua, who was picking vegetables in the yard, immediately put down the vegetables when she heard Lu Xiaoxiao's voice, then trotted to the courtyard door and opened it.

"Xiaoxiao, did you just come back from the county seat?"

"Yes, Sister Meihua, are you free now? I have something to discuss with you and Liu Shuyu."

Thank you cuties for your comfort and encouragement. The negative emotions caused by those ratings in the morning were all dispelled by the warm words of the cuties. I am really grateful to all the cuties for your support, okay?

Also, Huahua carefully reads the comments of every little cutie. Since there are too many comments, Huahua cannot reply to them one by one, so I would like to say thank you to all the cuties here.

Thank you for your support and encouragement

Thank you for accompanying me all the way
