Chapter 20 Trivia

In addition to four corn cakes and two pickled lumps, the cloth pocket that Fusheng brought, there were also two boiled eggs.

Yunshu steamed the corn cakes in a pot and fryed the eggplant sent by others. Although there was no meat, there was a lot of oil, which was quite fragrant.

Of course, this made Dazhuang feel distressed while eating, and his sister was too confused about living.

After dinner, Yunshu secretly changed the goat milk to milk powder and added diluted stalactites. However, Yunshu didn't dare to add too much of this stalactite. Wang Ye saw that it was not easy to fool!

Seeing that Xiaozhuang was drinking very sweetly, she and Dazhuang felt relieved and could eat.

Thinking about the fact that when we first met, Xiaozhuang didn’t even have the energy to eat breasts. Looking at the moment, it took only half a day to make merit from stalactites, it can be seen that Wang Ye is also a real skill.

It is unclear what other people's children are like, but Xiaozhuang is really good at taking care of them. He goes to bed when he eats, urinates, and hums a few times after he gets breastfeeding, and goes to bed again.

Yunshu knew that this was because Xiaozhuang was too weak and could only use sleep to replenish energy.

Moreover, it is normal for such a older child to sleep for 20 hours a day.

My brother is so worried that he gives Yunshu and Dazhuang more time to work.

The two of them boiled water first, wiped the furniture back clean, and then cleaned the corners of the house.

It is worth mentioning that in the drawer of the dressing table, Yunshu found 200 yuan. When she thought about it, she knew that it was given by Grandpa Daya.

He knew that Yunshu would definitely not want it, so he secretly put it in the dressing table.

Yunshu sighed and put together the private money that Da Ya's grandfather had secretly saved with the family money.

"We will be more filial to our grandfather in the future, and we will be worthy of our father."

However, it can be seen from this that no matter how afraid of his wife, this man will not be ruthless when hiding his private money.

Two hundred yuan is definitely a huge sum of money in today's era.

...

The wardrobe at home has double doors, and the wardrobe carved with dragons and phoenixes. When you open the wardrobe, not only does an old-fashioned calendar hang, but also a few clean and thick clothes are stacked.

When Dazhuang saw this, he wanted to cry again, "This is the winter clothes of his father and mother. His father's fur coat was made by the bride. He was just waiting for his father to go home for the New Year. The hat was made by lynx skin, or was it made by his father a few years ago."

These things are also found in Daya's memory.

In this era, not only were the economic conditions very difficult, but the rural areas were also difficult.

The cloth tickets in rural areas are limited, so it is not necessary to buy them. Therefore, "three years in the new, three years in the old, and three years in the sewing and repairing" was a very common phenomenon in the 1960s and 1970s.

Naturally, people are not afraid of dead clothes. The clothes for Da Ya's parents in summer and autumn have long been separated by Wang Tiezhu's family and Da Ya's aunt.

Fortunately, because of the weather, these winter clothes were not ruined.

"Dazhuang, I won't laugh at you when I cry at home, but outside, you represent the face of our family, so you don't let gold beads fall off at any time."

Dazhuang quickly wiped his tears, "Sister, I am a real man and I won't cry anymore."

The two of them put away their clothes, which was the thought left by their parents for them.

Yunshu looked at the old calendar and felt very fresh, but it didn't matter.

"Dazhuang, what time is it today?"

Dazhuang lit the calendar, "It was the Chinese Valentine's Day the day before yesterday, and the aunts and aunts in the village were playing as needles. Usually, every time this time, my mother would write letters to her father."

As soon as he mentioned this topic, his tone dimmed again.

Yunshu quickly patted his brother's head, "When the uncle of the Tong family comes, please ask him to bring us some paper and pen next time. In the future, my sister will teach you how to read, and we will also write to parents."

Dazhuang nodded vigorously, "Mom has taught me to read, sister, I have learned all the first grade books."

Speaking of Daya's book, it had been hidden by that vicious woman, and she had just kept it for Xiao Wu to use later.

Yunshu wrote another note on the item list that needed to be prepared.

She looked through the calendar and said that the day before yesterday was the seventh day of the seventh month of the lunar calendar, and today it was the ninth day of the seventh month, which corresponds to the Gregorian calendar on August 16th.

Usually, Uncle Tong came on the 20th of every month, which was almost there.

...

There were two thick quilts in the kang cabinet that I sent back. Although the quilt was old, it could still be seen that it was the best silk. Although the quilt was a little yellow, it was the best cotton cloth. The cotton inside was also very thick, well preserved, and still very soft.

There are also Da Ya and Da Zhuang’s winter clothes. Although there are patches, Da Ya Niang is skillful and embroidered flowers on the patches, making them more beautiful.

Seeing these winter clothes, Yunshu secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Now she really couldn't find a reason to take out the things in the mall, and there were no cloth tickets at home.

After everything was settled, Yunshu and Dazhuang hugged Xiaozhuang and looked at the no longer empty room, feeling sincere joy.

"This is our home, father, mother, sister, me, Xiaozhuang, and Da Ya's home."

Da Zhuang held back his tears.

Yunshu nodded, "Our home!" Now she was glad that she had not committed suicide and returned to the underworld. Even for this sensible younger brother, she was willing to stay.

The next day, Yunshu and his three brothers lived a dull and fulfilling life.

After dinner in the morning, I will send Xiaozhuang to Wangye's place first. Yunshu and Dazhuang will help Wangye do some work like washing clothes and sweeping the yard.

Yun Shu pretended to be casually asking Wang Ye for some common medicinal materials in the mountains.

After spending a whole morning, after going home for lunch, Yunshu "forced" Dazhuang to rest for a while, and then the siblings would go to the foot of the mountain to pick up firewood and wild vegetables, wild fruits, mushrooms on the ground.

As for the pine nuts and fruits on the trees, they are all collective. It is just for children to pick some of the ground as snacks, and it is not possible to pick them in large quantities.

Only after the autumn harvest is over, the villagers will organize the mountain to pick mountain goods and sell them to the purchase station. The villagers' labor force is counted as centimeters, and the money obtained must be distributed according to centimeters during the Chinese New Year.

Of course, if there are some difficulties, you can withdraw some in advance.

Because there is not much land that can grow grain in the mountains and the grain output is not high, at that time, it was also important to "worship the country, keep the collective, and end up being individual." But in fact, the remaining grain is not enough for the villagers, so naturally the people in the mountains rarely sell grain for money.

Therefore, the money for selling mountain goods is one of the sources of daily necessities.

Fortunately, when the country relies on the mountain to eat and there is no farm work, the villagers occasionally go to the mountain to hunt, sell it to the purchase station, or trade it privately, and can exchange it for a few dollars.

But this is done secretly, because the animals in the forest are collectively owned.
