Rebirth 1983: Starting from taking back the family property.

Chapter 53 Clues
  As soon as the painting was spread out, the eldest sister saw the person on it and immediately said: "This person came to buy things at the beginning of the year and bought two kilograms of fruit candies. After she took it, she insisted that I weighed less."

Speaking of this, she said angrily: "I have been selling things for almost 20 years, and I have never had fewer customers. I suspected that she had hidden some candies, so I said that I would search her bags and clothes. She was unwilling to follow I got into a fight."

It's okay to say that she has a bad attitude, but it's definitely not okay to say that she's short of weight. If she endures this anger, it's hard to believe that she won't be able to keep her job. Likewise, she was particularly impressed by this old woman.

Lu Jiaxin was overjoyed: "Sister, do you know where this person lives?"

The eldest sister shook her head and said, "I don't know where she lives, but the accent sounds like she's from Xixiang. It's said that her son became a leader in some factory, and he speaks very arrogantly."

As a leader in a factory in another place, no matter how old the official is, he can't control her. As soon as she called the police, the old woman didn't dare to make a fuss. It was obvious that she had a guilty conscience.

Lu Jiaxin was overjoyed. This clue brought them one step closer to finding the old woman. She grabbed a handful of fruit candies and stuffed them into the eldest sister's hands: "Sister, thank you, you really helped me a lot."

Then, she grabbed a handful of fruit candies and gave them to the enthusiastic salesperson.

After leaving the supply and marketing cooperative, Zhao Dajun said: "Miss Lu, we should go to the Public Security Bureau now and inform Leader Wu of this clue."

Lu Jiaxin shook her head and said, "You just saw it too. There are only a few people in the Public Security Bureau today, and everyone else should be on duty."

This shows that they are seriously short of manpower. Also, if there were enough manpower, I would not be allowed to go to work.

Lu Jiaxin said: "Uncle, let's go back and tell the second and fifth brothers about this situation. Tomorrow we will go to Xixiang to search together. With so many clues, we will definitely find the person tomorrow."

Today's police force is far inferior to that of later generations. When they go to arrest the old woman, they must have a case on hand to solve.

Uncle Lu frowned and said, "Jiaxin, even if we find someone, we can't catch him."

When they went to other villages to arrest people, the police were carrying out their official duties and were wearing paraphernalia, so those people did not dare to do anything when they saw it. If they dare to do this, they will definitely be chased and beaten by people from any village.

Lu Jiaxin said with a smile: "We just need to find the person. Arresting the person is a matter for the Public Security Bureau."

With these words, Uncle Lu felt relieved.

On the way back, Lu Jiaxin suddenly said: "Uncle, I think the dishes and steamed buns cooked in state-owned restaurants are not as delicious as those made by auntie."

Uncle Lu smiled and said, "The braised pork and spicy and sour potato shreds made by your aunt are not as delicious as those made by the chef, but the steamed buns are indeed softer than theirs."

Lu Jiaxin explained: "Spicy and sour potato shreds are very good to make. I'll fry one for you tonight. I'm sure the taste will be no worse than that of the cook."

"Hey, uncle wants to try it tonight."

Time passed quickly while walking and chatting. As they talked, Lu Jiaxin mentioned the fact that the eldest aunt was good at cooking: "Uncle, if someone in the family has learned the cooking skills from the eldest aunt, they can open a restaurant in the county. This will be more convenient." An improvement.”

It is impossible for the eldest aunt to be in charge of seven people. Xiaoqiu still needs help to cook meals for more than a dozen people in the family. Running a restaurant is so hard that the body must not be able to bear it.

Uncle Lu somewhat blamed Lu Hongjun for not teaching his children anything and letting them think about whatever they wanted: "Xinxin, opening a restaurant is not that easy."

He knows that the current policy is different from before, but what happened in the past few years still scares him. What if one day it will be the same again? Therefore, he still hopes that his children will work in factories or public institutions. If that doesn't work, they can just farm at home. Not making a fortune, but stable. Lu Jiaxin knew his concerns and said, "Uncle, many small restaurants have opened in the four and nine cities. I don't have time to cook, so I go to restaurants to eat. Not only is the food delicious, but the service attitude is also very good."

She also understands that many people have a wait-and-see attitude towards reform and opening up. Those who open small restaurants in Sijiucheng are all good at cooking and bold. However, a large part of these people cannot survive and have no choice. If they have a stable job, they will not take risks.

Uncle Lu waved his hand and said, "I can't control what other people do, but our family is not allowed to open a store. We can live a good life, so there is no need to take risks."

When they got home, Lu Jiaxin found out that Uncle Lu and his son had returned early, but Brother Lu and the others had not returned yet.

The eldest aunt said: "Jiaxin, I took the painting you gave me and asked around in the surrounding villages. No one knows this old woman."

Lu Jiaxin said with a smile: "It's okay, we have already found out that this old woman speaks with an accent from Xixiang."

The eldest aunt was very surprised: "Jiaxin, how did you find out?"

After hearing that she got the news from the salesperson of the supply and marketing cooperative, the eldest aunt gave a thumbs up and praised: "Jiaxin, you are still smart, your uncle didn't think of it."

The rest of the family probably didn't even think of going to the state-owned hotel and asking about the supply and marketing cooperative. The main reason is that the people in these public institutions have a bad attitude, and I think they won't respond if I ask them.

Uncle Lu saw that she was hiding him again, and said helplessly: "Okay, since we have clues, we will go to Xixiang tomorrow to inquire. Don't be impulsive when we find out the news. Let's let the police arrest the person."

The eldest aunt also understands that if you dare to go to other people's territory, it will only be your own family who will suffer.

When the children at home saw Lu Jiaxin buying so many things, after Uncle Lu and Aunt Lu went out, they all came into the house and watched eagerly.

Niu Niu was bolder and asked directly: "Auntie, what delicious food did you buy?"

Lu Jiaxin took out a bottle of soda, opened it and said with a smile: "Go get a bowl, let everyone drink a little."

Now these sodas are all natural, so you don’t have to worry about eating them bad.

Xiaoqiu quickly stopped: "Sister-in-law, they ate peel pills and white rabbit toffee today. Keep these things for later!"

She actually wanted to drink it, but she was afraid that her mother would come back and scold her.

Lu Jiaxin said with a smile: "It's okay. Go get three bowls and drink half a bottle each. If I scold you, just say that I insisted on giving it and you couldn't stop it."

Xiaoqiu went to get a bowl and drank the soda with a few children. After finishing the drink, she picked up the soda bottle that fell on the ground and said, "Sister-in-law, I heard that you can exchange this soda bottle for money if you take it back."

Lu Jiaxin thought about what the salesperson said: "If you return a soda bottle to them, you can get two cents back."

"Sister-in-law, you bought ten bottles, and you can exchange them for twenty cents after you take them back."

She had never worried about money in her previous life, and this time in the ancient capital was the most difficult period. When she returned, she had more money: "Then after we finish drinking, we will take it to the supply and marketing cooperative to exchange money for whoever goes to the county seat."
