My Siheyuan Shelter

Chapter 220 Visiting Xiang Xin
"Aunt Wang, do you have other considerations?" Yang Lina asked tentatively.

Listening to the tone of the other party's words, it is obvious that there is something in the words.

Wang Xiujuan said happily, "Nana still understands me!"

"What do you mean?" Mother Xu asked in surprise.

"I also heard from insiders that this year and next two years, the higher-ups will further reduce the food consumption rate, that is to say, the rations will only decrease in the future."

Xu Ma asked, "So what?"

"Your family is not short of food, of course there is no need to worry, but what about other people? When they come to borrow food, do you think we should borrow it or not?" Wang Xiujuan asked rhetorically.

"Of course not, only fools will borrow it!" Xu Ma said naturally.

"Since you don't want to borrow it, it's better to break it now, so as not to be in a dilemma and increase your troubles."

Yang Lina thinks it makes sense: "Mom, Aunt Wang is right, that dance troupe, it's better for us to have less contact in the future."

"That's what happened!"

Mama Xu was a bit late. At the party just now, several dancers who were usually close to each other asked her in a roundabout way if they could get food, but she flatly refused.

Now everyone knows that food is precious. Although their family has stockpiled a lot of food, it is not to the point of giving it away indiscriminately.

At this time, Lele came over with a plate of snacks.

"Grandma Wang, eat some snacks. These snacks are made by my mother and I."

Wang Xiujuan looked at Lele curiously: "This child is really polite. He has learned how to make dim sum at such a young age. He will definitely be great in the future."

"Hey!" Lele smiled and narrowed her eyes.

Yang Lina scolded with a smile: "If she devotes half of her mind to her studies, I will be satisfied. What's the use of making snacks, and she can't go to college."

"You can't say that!" Wang Xiujuan shook her head, "It's a good thing for children to be interested, and they should be cultivated more. There is no harm in learning a craft."

"Old Wang is right, Nana, don't be too strict with the children, it's summer vacation, let them play more!" Xu Ma quickly echoed.

"Oh, I see. Anyway, I have long since given up my expectations. As long as the two of them are not the bottom of the class, I can accept it." Yang Lina said helplessly.

After Lele left, the three brought the topic back to the main topic.

While eating the buns, Wang Xiujuan told the two of them the "insider" information she had just inquired about: "Water restrictions will start again in a while, and it is best to store more water at home."

"Haven't the country built so many desalination plants, why is there water restriction?" Yang Lina wondered.

Nowadays, as long as the water supply can be guaranteed in the morning and evening, it is regarded as a normal water supply.

"Your father-in-law should be aware of this. The plant factory in the eastern suburbs is about to be put into use. It is said that it will take up more than half of the fresh water resources. Can the water be used?"

"Since the plant factory is about to start production, why do we have to reduce the ration every month?" Xu Ma asked with a frown.

I often hear my old man talking about plant factories. Mama Xu is no stranger to them, so she even watched popular science videos on TV for this reason.

"There is not enough food to eat, our country has a population of more than one billion, how much food do we need to eat a day?

Moreover, only the coastal areas can afford large-scale plant factories. The inland areas are too short of water, so they can only make small troubles and cannot achieve a climate.

I heard from my family Zhang Kai that at present, more than [-]% of the food in the entire inland area depends on the support of the superiors, and the pressure on food is very high. "

"Oh, it's hard!" Mother Xu lamented.

"Aunt Wang, do you think our country will be in chaos like the beautiful country?" Yang Lina worried. There are many children in the family, and she really can't imagine that kind of situation.

Wang Xiujuan smiled, but did not answer directly.

"Don't worry about this. As long as we get through these two or three years of hardship, our country will only get better and better."

"I'm not afraid of hard times."

Wang Xiujuan said angrily: "Hey, why am I telling you these things? With your family's conditions, no matter how hard it is outside, it's not your turn."

"Old Wang, what you said is that our family's things are not stolen or robbed. My third child bought them with money." Xu Ma said seriously.

"Yes, yes, it's okay if I said something wrong."

Yang Lina quickly changed the subject: "Aunt Wang, are you still used to living in public rental housing?"

"It was really uncomfortable at first, but I got used to it as I lived here. Small house is also good, and the family is very popular. If I didn't get used to living here, I wouldn't plan to move out."

"What are you afraid of? If you have nothing to do, let's run on both sides. It's not that we won't see each other." Xu Ma comforted.

"You're right. I can't be idle. If I really stay there, I'll feel uncomfortable living there, and so will the two of them."

This chat lasted for over an hour.

In the end, Wang Xiujuan spent 3000 yuan and took away a pack of snacks and a big watermelon.

……

Soon it was the weekend again.

Xu Dong intends to visit Xiang Xin. This person has a different identity. He is the widow of a martyr. As a direct supervisor, he needs to visit Xiang Xin on behalf of the company.

Originally, this was Section Chief Li's job, but the other party didn't have time at all, so he was so focused on his wife and children that he couldn't bear to leave.

There is no other way, Xu Dong can only do it for him.

You can't go to the door alone. Although Section Chief Li approved 5000 yuan of funds, it is definitely not appropriate to send money.

He privately exchanged it for two catties of fish and two catties of dried shrimp. This gift is definitely heavy enough, and the extra is his own wish!

The little baby is so pitiful that he has never even seen his biological father.

Xu Dong was about to go out when Yang Lina stopped him suddenly: "Husband, wait."

"What's wrong?" Xu Dong turned around and asked.

Yang Lina stuffed the eldest son to her husband: "Take Dabao with you, take him out for more strolls, don't stay at home all day, it's not good for his development."

The triplets are almost three years old, and it's time to take them out to see the outside world, especially in recent months, the children hardly go out, which is not good.

"Uh, I still have to drive, how can I stand it?" Xu Dong shook his head.

"Then don't drive, take a taxi." Yang Lina insisted.

Xu Dong rubbed his head, feeling a little headache.

Yang Lina teased the child: "Dabao, do you like to go outside to play with Dad?"

"I like it." Dabao jumped happily.

"Look, Dabao is willing, so why do you hesitate." Yang Lina said proudly.

In the end, Xu Dong had no choice but to set off with his eldest son in his arms. As for presents, feeding bottles and other things, they were all put in the backpack, which was not too much of a hindrance.

After calling a taxi, Xiang Xin's house arrived half an hour later.

Because it was a normal delivery, Xiang Xin stayed in the hospital for less than three days and came back.

"Ding dong..."

"Come on, wait a minute."

The one who opened the door was Xiang Xin, who looked delighted, as if he had seen countless delicious food.

"Boss, why are you here?"

ps: Ask for recommended tickets and monthly tickets!
