Uncle Niu looked at the time and felt embarrassed to not give face to his niece: "That's fine."
The main thing is that shepherd's purse is really good. This family is very honest and handles it very cleanly. You can cook it directly after just washing it.
So, Old Song received twenty-five yuan.
His hands were shaking a little.
It's not that hehas never seen so much money before, but that it was mainly earned from a dozen baskets of wild vegetables. It feels like a dream.
He drove the carriage to send Sister Niu back home, and then went to Zhao Li's house. When Zhao Li saw shepherd's purse, her eyes widened.
Nowadays, there is a shortage of food, and the only things sold in grocery stores are cabbages and radishes.
This was the first time she had seen such juicy wild vegetables.
Song Yu Nuan put down the shepherd's purse: "...Sister, my grandfather is waiting for me on the roadside. I will go home after delivering firewood to my uncle."
Zhao Li hurriedly held her back and lowered her voice: "I was just thinking of asking someone to tell you something. It just so happens that you're here. Our unit is dealing with a batch of damp flour. We don't need food coupons. I got you 100 kilograms of it. One kilogram costs 7 cents. If you don't have money, just keep it in your account. Yuo'll give it to you when you have it."
Song Yu Nuan widened her eyes in surprise: "Really?"
But she knew that the current price of flour was 1.8 cents per pound, which was more than twice the price.
What's the big deal about it being damp?
It doesn't matter if there are bugs.
There was not much food left at home.
The girl's stunned look was so adorable. Zhao Li pinched her cheek affectionately and said softly, "It's true, but it will take two days. I'll get it for you then. You can just come to my house and get it."
"Then I'll give you the money first."
"No, no, everyone keeps accounts. You'll get scolded if you give cash."
Song Yu Nuan thought for a moment and said, "I will come to the county art troupe for an interview with my aunt in two days. I will come to you after that."
Zhao Li's eyes sparkled: "Oh, I know about this. I happened to be on leave that day, and we met at the gate."
The two of them agreed, and Song Yu Nuan happily ran to tell Old Song about the flour. Old Song was so happy that he immediately gave her ten yuan.
Little Asheng took a quick look and did a quick calculation.
One hundred kilograms of flour costs seven yuan, and his sister can save three yuan.
He looked up at my sister and laughed.
Song Yu Nuan pinched her brother's cheek, then gave the money to Old Song: "Grandpa, let's talk about it when we get home. Besides, we have to take the right amount. We can't ask Sister Zhao to give us the change."
Old Song thought it made sense.
By the way, he also has to go to the fertilizer factory.
Old Song gave the warehouse keeper a basket of shepherd's purse, saying that it was picked from the riverbank in the countryside. Although it was not valuable, it was fresh and juicy and could add a dish to the family dinner table.
Country people don't like fresh shepherd's purse, but city people really like it.
When I was leaving, the warehouse keeper gave me five bags of fertilizer and said they could be used to make pants.
Song Yu Nuan was shocked at the time.
Can this thing be made into pants?
Looking at grandpa's happy expression, it seems real.
She remembered that nowadays you need cloth coupons to buy cloth, and the supply is limited, mainly because of the shortage of raw materials.
First make sure you have enough food and then think about keeping warm.
Song Yu Nuan watched her grandfather fold the bag like a treasure, only to find out that it was made of nylon.
She scratched her head and decided that she wouldn't want it anyway.
It seems that chemical fibers have been invented.
After the promotion is carried out, the cloth coupons will be cancelled in two years. At that time, cloth can be bought freely. However, after taking a look carefully, grandfather's pants have two big patches.
Song Yu Nuan remembered that she seemed to be the only one in the family without patched clothes, so she shut up obediently.
The three of them, grandfather and grandsons, are almost never idle.
They wanted to deliver the firewood to Song Nian's house, but was stopped on the way. The man secretly gave them fifty cents, so half a cart of firewood was delivered to his home.
His house is exactly east and west from Song Nian's house.
Old Song simply decided not to go to his youngest son's house.
He bought a pound of egg cakes and carried Ah Sheng onto the carriage. Old Song's mind suddenly became clear, and he waved the whip and drove towards Erdaohe Village.
By the time they got home, it was already dark.
Little Asheng ate two egg cakes and fell asleep in his sister's arms.
Everyone in the family is here, and they have prepared dinner and are waiting for them to come back.
Fish sauce, big pancakes, the aroma can be smelled in the yard.
Old Song took out twenty-five coins and happily handed them to his wife.
Old Mrs. Song was also happy, but the second son's family was still here.
The other five urea bags made the old lady smile with delight. She said she would make pants for Xiao Nuan and Tingting after they were washed.
Song Yu Nuan was shocked: "Thank you, absolutely not!!!"
Hearing that there was still 100 kilograms of flour, she gave Song Yu Nuan 7 yuan, touched her granddaughter's white and tender hands with love, and then shouted for dinner.
Compared to egg cake, Song Yu Nuan found that she liked fish paste with pancakes more.
It's a perfect match and smells great.
In the evening, Mrs. Song said to the old man, "Li Erlan has a son, but he is not filial. Now he has been driven out by his son and lives in the cowshed at the entrance of the village. It's miserable. I found an opportunity to tell him about Wang Dazhi that he is filial, sensible and hardworking. And he will soon be the team leader. Do you think Li Erlan will come to recognize his son?"
Old Song said: "It's hard to say. After all, Wang Zhuzi has committed a crime."
"Old man, I'm not worried at all. Guess why?"
Old Song immediately replied, "That's because we have a little lucky girl. Look, today is going really smoothly."
Old Lady Song remembered something and said in a hoarse voice, "Maybe the Song family died too unjustly in the previous life, so the Buddha sent a little fairy here."
At this time, the fairy was reviewing the background stories of the two songs with her aunt.
They didn't know that Mrs. Sun had become interested in the beautiful young lady from the Song family who was as pretty as a fairy as described by Mrs. Wang.
Old Mrs. Sun has a job on her hands.
The other party offered a high price of one thousand yuan, and what he wanted was a beautiful, innocent and naive girl like Song Yunuan.
She is going to be sent to Xiangcheng.
She searched for several months but couldn't find the right one.
Old Mrs. Sun asked Wang Po to leave quickly, and she went to Song Nian's house.
Song Nian found out indirectly that his wife was not his mother-in-law's biological daughter.
Before he could finish discussing the matter with my wife, the old lady came to visit.
He took Hu Zi to sit aside, and Sun Jinrong was obviously a little nervous.
The old lady started chatting and said that the white flour and eggs that she brought because she was reluctant to eat caused The daughter-in-law at home to get angry and quarrel with her.
Sun Jinrong just said that they had eaten it all.
The old lady cursed in her heart for a few words, then said, "Song Nian, I have something very happy to tell you."
Song Nian: ...
He didn't like her before, and now the more he looks at her, the more disgusted he feels.
"The big yard in front of my house is the home of the director of the machinery factory. His son and your eldest niece, the one who was taken away by mistake, let's call her Xiao Nuan, are of the same age. The young man is energetic and 1.8 meters tall. He is now working as a clerk in the machinery factory. He is a little old. His family is well-off and has everything. The director's wife said that if you like her, you can live in an 80-square-meter building, three turns and one ring, and a betrothal gift of three golds, silver, and 500 yuan. I heard that your niece grew up in the provincial capital, so she became interested and told me that she wanted to see what your niece looks like. This is a great thing that fell from the sky. How about this, you go back tomorrow and bring your niece here, and we will take a look at each other."
