Yu Yu took the bus home early in the morning. Although he had a bicycle, the ride back was not only laborious but also took about the same time as taking the bus. It was not as comfortable as taking the bus.
The whole family is at home today, and He Yuzhu went shopping for groceries in the morning. He Xiaotian went to the black market. The family was not short of money, but the meat tickets were running out. It was yesterday that He Yuzhu mentioned that Liu Lan had exchanged a lot of meat tickets for him on the black market, and He Xiaotian suddenly remembered that there was a black market now. After asking for the location, He Xiaotian went to the black market today to buy some good things.
There are a lot of good things on the black market. There is no ticket for pork, but the price is twice as expensive as the ones outside that require tickets. It costs one yuan and sixty pounds. He Xiaotian also saw people exchanging antiques, calligraphy and paintings for food or bills.
The prosperity of the black market is not comparable to that outside. As long as you want to buy, you can basically find it here. Of course, some industrial products are not available here.
"Comrade, do you want this bracelet? I want to exchange it for some money and food stamps!" A man who looked a little dignified stopped He Xiaotian.
He Xiaotian saw that it was a jade bracelet, which looked very good from his point of view. But He Xiaotian knew that he was a layman in these matters. "It seems that I will also learn some knowledge about antique calligraphy and painting in the future." He Xiaotian ignored the man and left.
The man didn't give up and chased He Xiaotian and said, "Comrade, this is my family's inheritance. If it weren't for the fact that my child was getting married and the family couldn't make ends meet, I wouldn't want to sell it. Look at the quality of this bracelet. I don't want more." , ten yuan, plus twenty pounds of food stamps! Comrade, look at it!"
The price is not expensive for He Xiaotian, but he doesn't know whether the bracelet is genuine or not, so it's better not to buy it. "Comrade, I don't have food stamps. Besides, I'm here to buy meat stamps."
"Tell me earlier! Comrade, I have meat tickets here. How many do you want?" Upon hearing this, the man began to take out a stack of meat tickets.
He Xiaotian is not a fool. When he saw this situation, he knew that this person was not very authentic, so he simply ignored him.
That person was not the only one who was reselling meat tickets on the black market. He Xiaotian exchanged twenty kilograms of meat tickets with a person who looked a bit honest, which was all the meat tickets that that person had.
"Comrade, if you still want it, I will take you to see someone who has more meat tickets."
"No, the twenty pounds of meat coupons will be enough for me for a while. I will exchange them with you when I run out." Five pounds of the twenty pounds of meat tickets are given to Rainwater, and five pounds are left for the old lady. The remaining ten pounds are enough for Liu Xia and herself to use until the end of the year. Don't forget that he and Liu Xia receive meat tickets every month. In fact, most of these meat tickets are still for Liu Xia. He Xiaotian is also the deputy director of the steel rolling mill. He is a small cook in the factory and eats meat basically every day. Unlike Liu Xia, she does not have any position in the hospital, she is just an ordinary obstetrician and gynecologist.
He Xiaotian encountered the rain that had just arrived at the door of the courtyard. "Uncle!" Yuyu hasn't been home for two months and misses his family very much. When he saw He Xiaotian, he came over and held He Xiaotian's arm.
"This child!" Yuyu is only fifteen years old this year. In He Xiaotian's eyes, he is just a child.
"Xiaotian, don't forget to come for the wedding banquet tomorrow. The rain has come back too! Come together tomorrow. Tomorrow you become the eldest brother and get married. Come here to enjoy the joy." Yan Fugui invited his uncle and nephew again when he saw them.
"Okay, I will definitely come tomorrow." After saying that, the uncle and nephew left.
"By the way, don't forget to ask your wife to come too. Oh, let the old lady come too, let's have a good time." Yan Fugui continued from behind.
"Brother!" Yuyu jumped over and hugged He Yuzhu.
"Hello, old lady! Hello, little aunt!" Suddenly Yuyu saw Gao Cuilan and Gao Yuanchao and froze there. She didn't know that Gao Cuilan and Yi Zhonghai were divorced, nor that Gao Yuanchao was Gao Cuilan's adopted son.
"Yu Yu, this is your Aunt Gao. This is Aunt Gao's adopted son named Gao Yuanchao." It was difficult for the old lady to explain this, so Liu Xia helped introduce him.
Yuyu trusted his family very much. Since no one in his family objected, there must be something he didn't know about. Call someone first and then talk. "Hello, Aunt Gao."
"Yuan Chao, this is your sister Yu Yu. You haven't called me yet." Liu Xia pointed at Yu Yu and introduced her to Gao Yuan Chao.
"Hello, Sister Yuyu."
"you're good too."
Gao Cuilan also knew that Yuyu didn't know about her affairs, so she didn't say much. She knew that He Xiaotian and Shazhu would explain it to her. "The rain has just returned. You can go inside and have a chat. This place will be left to me and Silly Zhu."
Several adults had entered the house, but Gao Yuanchao stayed behind to wash vegetables with his mother.
"Uncle, what's going on with Aunt Gao?" Yu Yu couldn't help it after entering the house.
He Xiaotian told Yu Yu in detail why Yi Zhonghai and Gao Cuilan divorced and how Gao Cuilan adopted Gao Yuanchao.
"Oh! I didn't expect it, I really didn't expect it. Aunt Gao is really pitiful." Yuyu felt bad after hearing Gao Cuilan's experience.
"Okay, don't be sad. Mrs. Gao is living a more comfortable life now than before. With Yuan Chao's company, I see her smiling more than before. Yuan Chao is also a good kid, and she won't be there after school. Play everywhere. When we come back, we do our homework. After we finish our homework, he helps us glue paper boxes. His mother, Gao, cooks and helps pick and wash vegetables. He is a good boy!" The old lady saw that Yu Yu had already accepted Gao, so she Speaking of Gao Yuanchao. The old lady also likes him very much. Who doesn't like hard-working children?
"What the old lady said is that this kid from Yuan Chao is really rare. It would be great if my children were as obedient as Yuan Chao in the future." Liu Xia also sighed with emotion.
"They, mother and son, have hit it off. If the Gao family helps the court in the future, they won't have to worry about their affairs after death!" The old lady also sighed with emotion. "By the way, Yu Yu, you don't know yet. Your brother passed the level 3 chef exam the day before yesterday!"
"Ah? Really?" Although the old lady said this, Yuyu looked at He Xiaotian.
"Yes. He deserves this." He Xiaotian nodded in affirmation.
The rain rushed out in a furious manner. "Brother! Have you really passed the level 3 chef exam?"
"Yes! How about it? Isn't my brother awesome?"
"Ah! Brother! You are so awesome!" Yu Yu hugged He Yuzhu excitedly and spun around in circles. In the past few months, with the care of He Xiaotian, He Yuzhu, and Liu Xia, Yu Yu's character has changed a lot. In the past, she would not be so bold and would hug He Yuzhu and spin around in circles.
"This kid!" The old lady smiled as she watched the brother and sister play.
"Yu Yu is only fifteen years old, so he's just a child!" He Xiaotian wished he had a camera to record this beautiful scene.
