After the grain distribution was completed, the family had 300 kilograms more grain, including 100 kilograms of corn, 100 kilograms of sorghum, 50 kilograms of millet, 20 kilograms of soybeans, 30 kilograms of small grains (melon seeds, red beans, yellow rice, etc.), and Five hundred catties of sweet potatoes, two hundred catties of cabbage, one hundred catties of radishes and five large pumpkins.
Yun Shu and his brother transported all the grains and vegetables to the cellar bit by bit, filling the cellar full, and the two siblings breathed a sigh of relief.
Although the food was different from what Yun Shu had expected, and it was not given for free, their family did not live on the food. It was just to provide a source for the things in her hand.
However, Yun Shu also discovered through sharing the food that if she wanted to live a good life in this era and raise her two younger brothers, it was not enough to rely on her knowledge that was isolated from society. She needed to learn a lot.
For example, the so-called basic rations are not given for free. These will be converted into RMB according to the national purchase price, and then deducted with work points.
Those who work more and have more work points can pay for the rations, then they can divide the work and share the food; those who do not have enough work points have to pay for the rations.
If you have no money, you will naturally owe money to the production team or do not want these rations, but how can you go without food, so you can only owe money to the production team. This is why you still owe money after working for a year. for the sake of.
Of course, even if you owe money, not everyone is qualified to owe it. You have to be an honest and hard-working person, and you have to meet the production team captain and brigade cadres who can negotiate and accommodate.
The Yunshu family's work points are definitely not enough for rations. Not to mention not enough rations, even the meat, cabbage, and radishes they were given before are not enough.
But her family has money, so just give her money.
According to Yun Shu's idea, if he doesn't have money, he can't afford it; but if he has money, then anything that can be solved with money doesn't matter.
But obviously, her idea is still a bit ahead of its time.
As the saying goes, "You sing whatever songs you go to the top of the mountain." Nowadays, people can't even have enough food and clothing. You suddenly become a household worth ten thousand yuan. If you are not an outlier, who is? If you don’t criticize and fight, who will you criticize?
So when Yun Shu and her grandfather discussed replacing sweet potatoes with grain, her grandfather frowned and made a decision directly. After Yun Shu thought about it for a while, she understood what the old man meant.
The first is that wealth should not be revealed, and the second is that they are much the same.
So Yun Shu only took out fifty yuan and exchanged it for grain and vegetables.
However, Yun Shu didn't feel bad for spending the money, but many people in the village twitched with pain, and their eyes that originally hated the rich changed.
No matter how rich you are, it doesn't matter. There are no adults and no labor in the family. No matter how much money you have, you still have to spend it to exchange for food.
Yun Shu felt these hidden glances, and looked at his grandfather with a bit of "admiration". It must be said that Jiang is still very old.
But Wang Dazhi didn't expect that his eldest granddaughter actually understood what he meant, and he felt even more convinced. No one likes to do good deeds without leaving their name, and she even writes a diary!
On the day of food distribution, the food of every household in Qingxi Brigade was much more delicious than usual.
Now that the food was in hand, Yun Shu felt that their family's living standard could actually be improved.
Coincidentally, a few days after the food distribution, the Qingxi Brigade held a second grand event-hunting!
The village organizes a hunting trip to the mountains every year before the heavy snow closes the mountains. This activity is even more important than collecting in the mountains. Almost half of the meat in the village comes from this hunting.
Da Zhuang and Haichuan were very excited about this, and not only the two of them, but also Zhao Xiaoman and Wang Tangsheng looked like they were getting blood. Even if it had nothing to do with them, it was not just for eating meat. Anyway, Yun Shu was I don’t quite understand what these children are passionate about!
…
Tomorrow is the day when the hunting team sets off. This trip will take at least ten days. Yun Shu is sitting on the edge of the Kang, holding a few smooth pebbles picked up from the river and tossing them around, looking at Da Zhuang. He hesitated to speak, and looked down upon Da Zhuang.
"Sister, although I envy those uncles who go hunting, I will definitely not follow them secretly. If Haichuan disobeys and insists on going, I will tell Mr. Wang."
Yun Shu raised his eyebrows, but he didn't expect something big to happen.
"I think Haichuan is in trouble, he actually dares to persuade you to follow the hunting team."
"You don't want to go? It would be wise not to go. You think the tigers, wolves, jackals and leopards in the forest are vegetarians and believers in Buddhism!"
"Don't wait for him to disobey and complain. Tell Mr. Wang tomorrow and ask him to beat that boy Haichuan."
"There is something else I want to tell you..."
Da Zhuang was already confused by his sister's offensive words. Before Yun Shu could finish speaking, he nodded quickly, "Sister, I will listen to you. I will do whatever you say!"
Yun Shu grinned, showing two tiger teeth, "It's not a big deal, I'm thinking of going to the mountains tomorrow!"
"What……"
Da Zhuang sat up from the bed with a "scratch", and the broken voice frightened Xiao Zhuang, who was sleeping soundly, and he was about to cry with a grin before he even opened his eyes.
Yun Shu didn't care to scold the startled Da Zhuang, and quickly picked up Xiao Zhuang. He followed what he learned from Fu Sheng's sister-in-law, and gently followed Xiao Zhuang's fetal hair, "Don't be afraid, don't be afraid, Xiao Zhuang is not afraid. Touch the fur." , can’t be scared.”
Da Zhuang curled his lips and said, "Sister, have you noticed that Xiao Zhuang is getting more and more squeamish!"
Yun Shu couldn't help but glared at Da Zhuang who was speaking sourly, "You are still the same every day, let alone Xiao Zhuang. Our Xiao Zhuang is getting smarter and smarter."
If it is still the same as before, neither crying nor making trouble, that would be worrying!
Besides, a child has a pure heart and a sensitive mind. He knows who should not be messed with who treats him well. Children who grow up being pampered will become more and more squeamish.
When Xiao Zhuang fell asleep again, Da Zhuang simply picked up the quilt and sat face to face with his sister.
Yun Shu sighed, "Dazhuang, I want to go to the mountains with the hunting team."
Da Zhuang really listened carefully this time, with a look of panic on his face, "Sister, our family is not short of food and clothing now, why are you going to the mountains? I won't let you go, Xikten said there is danger in the old forest. "
Today's era is not an era where future generations have to protect everything. Places close to the mountains and forests are plagued by pigs, wolves, and tigers. It is a trivial matter to harm crops and livestock. What the hell, these things can also eat people.
So the Siberian tiger, which is extremely rare in later generations, is really at the point of life and death. That means either you kill the tiger and process it into tiger skin, tiger bones, tiger whip... or the tiger eats you, and then you become a It's just fertilizer that nourishes the forest.
Da Zhuang wanted to learn hunting, and Xikten probably felt sorry for the three children, so he was willing to teach him a few tricks, such as trapping pheasants and rabbits in the nearby woods, and he could catch a few from time to time.
During this period, it was natural to talk about the stories that Sikten had experienced personally or heard from the elders.
The jungle is truly a place where the weak and the strong eat each other and fight to the death.
When Da Zhuang listened to it on weekdays, he was frightened and his blood boiled at the same time. He just wished that he had learned a skill and shot a wild boar.
But now that he heard that his sister was going to the mountains and that he was involved in those stories, Da Zhuang felt that his descendants were soaked in cold sweat.
If there is any chance for my sister...
"Sister, don't leave me and Xiaozhuang!"
