It should have been a joyful time to visit her parents' home during the New Year, but Qin Huairu and Qin Jingru were both worried at the moment.
Qin Huairu knew that Qin Jingru must have no money, so she bought something worth more than 10 yuan and gave a share to Qin Jingru, which was very rare.
Qin Huairu's concern is that life at home is becoming more and more unbearable. The children are growing up and their appetites are increasing day by day. Every day, there is no fat star in the steamed bun noodles, and the family's appetite is getting bigger and bigger.
Especially after Banggeng stole money last time, Jia Zhang didn't eat secretly. Her appetite was as big as a glutton. She could eat 6 or 7 steamed buns in one meal, and her appetite was bottomless.
Moreover, Banggan still has to go to school, and he has to bring a lunch box every day at noon. You can't bring thin food, pickles, and occasionally steamed buns with noodles, which is also an expense.
Ever since Shazhu cut off his confession and the first uncle cut off his confession one after another, his family's living standard has dropped off a cliff. Seeing his children licking their lips with greed every day, Qin Huairu's heart is as sharp as a knife.
Let alone meat, I can’t even eat white flour steamed buns.
Yesterday, on New Year's Eve, my family made a meal of two-height noodle dumplings stuffed with pork and cabbage. I didn't eat any of them. My mother-in-law and Banggan grabbed all the dumplings, but Xiaodang and Huaihua couldn't grab them at all. They were so greedy. Wow wow cry.
These days are so difficult. Not everyone has integrity. Faced with reality, many people have their backs bent and choose to bow their heads.
Qin Jingru was even worse than her sister. During the first Spring Festival after her marriage, she went back to her parents' home alone.
Xu Damao has never come back since the last trouble. She is now on the verge of despair. If it were not for the hope that Du Weiguo gave her to support her, she would have completely collapsed.
Now she has 2 yuan, 37 cents left in money and 8 kilograms of coarse grain stamps left. The food at home is barely enough for about 5 days.
She can probably hold on for about 20 days, and she won't be able to get out of the first month without starving.
But she had already made up her mind. Even if she starved to death and froze to death, she would never take the initiative to ask Du Weiguo.
She was really too embarrassed to open her mouth.
From this point of view, she seems to be a little stronger than Qin Huairu.
The two sisters, who had many things on their minds and tried to save their face, returned to the commune with their things, went home respectively, and made an appointment to have lunch and return to the city together.
As the only two women married in the city, Qin Huairu and Qin Jingru have always been the envy of the older girls and younger wives in the village, so they cannot lose face, but they just know how well they are.
Moreover, White Lotus Qin Huairu didn't know that her family's cockroach had already aroused public anger due to Silly Zhu's sabotage. What was waiting for her in the courtyard was not gentle wind and drizzle, but a violent storm.
When the second uncle and the third uncle held a general meeting of the hospital and contacted various households, they found that Qin Huairu and Qin Jingru had returned to their parents' home. The head of the family was not around, so the whole hospital meeting had to wait until Qin Huairu came back in the evening.
The storm was brewing, and the voices asking Qin Huairu's family to get out of the courtyard became more and more unified. The waves became louder than the waves, and Silly Zhu was already panicking.
Damn it, you're out of luck, things are getting serious.
He went to the backyard to find the old deaf lady. He didn't dare to hide it and told the whole story.
After hearing this, the old deaf lady said, "Silly Zhu, tell grandma the truth. Do you still miss Qin Huairu?"
Silly Zhu shook his head like a rattle: "I didn't. She is a widow with three children and an evil mother-in-law. What am I worried about?"
The old deaf lady raised her drooped eyelids and her little eyes flashed: "Then let's take this opportunity to drive this family out of the compound. I think it's good."
Silly Zhu said a little embarrassedly: "Old lady, the key to today's New Year's greeting idea was given to me by Bangge!"
The old deaf lady sneered: "Haha, you're fine, just give the money back to everyone. It's just a joke. Do you have the money?"
Silly Zhu's face fell: "No, the whole 18 yuan from 6 families was taken away by this little brat Bangge, and no one knows where it went."
The old deaf lady said disapprovingly: "Then quickly find him. How far can he go as a little kid? Now that I have money, I guess I can buy firecrackers, candies and the like. The difference is a few cents." Just make up for it and that's it."
He Yuzhu scratched his hair: "Okay, I'll go out and touch this little brat right away."
Haha, everyone underestimates this guy. Is the Siheyuan Pirate Saint a wasted reputation? He is a gifted child. Today, this money is in his world view, but he earned it by his own skills, and he has absolute control. right.
And he doesn’t know how to buy firecrackers and candies. Who is he looking down on? If his uncle wants to eat meat, he should eat it in big mouthfuls.
Bangge took the money and went directly to the old man who picked up rags who had bought things for him before, and asked the old man to help him exchange the money for meat, and promised to give the old man 50 cents as a benefit.
So when Silly Zhu found Banggan at the intersection of Maotong Alley, the boy was carrying two chickens in his hands, two large pieces of pork hanging around his neck, and two large pieces of bacon. It's bulging, and I don't know what it's carrying.
Silly Zhu's eyes widened. He is a cook. He is very sensitive to food and value. These things usually cost at least 10 yuan or 8 yuan. If there is no meat ticket, I don't know how much it will cost. .
"Banggen, how much did you spend?"
"Uncle Silly, why are you scolding people?"
"Don't worry, Uncle Silly. For your benefit, I'll buy you a bottle of good wine and give you a chicken. That's fun."
"You spent all the money?"
"No, there are 2 yuan left! I know the price of meat, no one can try to fool me!"
Damn it, Silly Zhu was so stunned that he spurted out a mouthful of old blood when he heard this. A whole 16 dollars, just spent like this? Isn't this too arrogant?
Is this still a child?
He'll probably pay for it.
I lost a lot of blood!
Comrade Du Weiguo knew nothing about the farce in the courtyard, and he was very embarrassed now. Huang Guilan brought him food at noon today.
Fortunately, Huang Guilan didn't just deliver food to him, but also brought one to Wang Yang and Bart who were on duty today.
But even that bastard Bart could see that Huang Guilan was here to deliver food to Xiao Du today.
It is simply Sima Zhao’s heart, and everyone on the road knows it!
How much courage does Huang Guilan have to muster?
The lunch box contained dumplings stuffed with pork and cabbage, which were still steaming hot when I opened them.
Du Weiguo held the lunch box and looked at the embarrassed Huang Guilan opposite him. He was also a little embarrassed at this moment.
Let’s chat casually: “Thank you, Comrade Guilan, these dumplings smell so delicious!”
"Thank you. You have helped me so much. I don't have much to thank you for. It's Chinese New Year and I will give you a dumpling to try. Just don't dislike it."
"I don't mind it, I'm almost drooling."
Huang Guilan smiled: "Haha, you are just kidding me. You haven't eaten anything yet, and you can still drool when you see dumplings."
Xiao Du said in his heart, you should leave after seeing me off! How can I eat if you don’t leave?
"Comrade Guilan, have all the children at home eaten dumplings?"
Huang Guilan nodded quickly and said: "I ate them all. I'm not lying. I really ate them all. This year's Chinese New Year is the most comfortable one for our family. I have to thank you for this."
"Haha, that's good. I'll free up the lunch box for you so you can take it away."
"I'm not in a hurry, I'm not in a hurry, Section Chief Du, you're not in a hurry to empty the lunch box."
"it's okay no problem."
Du Weiguo opened the two lunch boxes that Yang Caiyu packed for him this morning and poured dumplings on the lids of the two lunch boxes.
The food he brought today included a box of white rice, a box of vegetables, braised pork, beef tendons, sausages, meat cuts, cabbage and fungus. They were basically leftovers from yesterday. They were so full that they almost popped out. .
When Huang Guilan saw Du Weiguo's lunch box, she couldn't help feeling bitter. This is probably the real gap between him and me.
My family can only eat one meal of meat dumplings a year. According to Du Weiguo's conditions, even eating meat every day is not too much.
The gap in reality is as despairing as a chasm.
