Back to the 60s: The Struggle Career of a Charmed Wife

Wang Zhengguo did not go in with them, but guarded the mule cart outside.

The mule carts they borrowed had to be brought back to the Wanglou Brigade unharmed, which was the largest labor force.

Lu Jiang and Feng Qingxue walked into the grocery store and found that many counters were empty. There were no eggs in the egg counter, and no pastries in the pastry counter. Most of the salespeople were busy chatting while mending.

Feng Qingxue was immediately dumbfounded. What was going on?

"Out of stock! Or sold out." Lu Jiang spat out calmly.

Fortunately, there is some loose sugar in the sugar cabinet, and there are some lean meat and bones left on the butcher table, which are generally not popular.

The price of fat and lean pork is the same at 70.20 kilograms. In the absence of cooking oil, citizens prefer fat meat. Unless the meat ticket expires, they will not queue up to buy lean meat and bones. However, buying The meat often has to be cut by a master chef. You have to buy the cut meat regardless of whether it is fat or thin. You have no right to choose.

Lu Jiang brought back four kilograms of meat stamps in different denominations. He didn't use them when he was in the border defense force because there was no meat in the canteen.

"Comrade, please cut us two kilograms of meat. This is the front leg meat, right? Cut the front leg meat." After Feng Qingxue finished speaking, she looked at the remaining head and hooves in the water, "How do you sell pig hooves? What about the pig head? Sell?"

The meat must be the meat of that day, but the weather is cold and the color is not so bright.

"Two kilograms of meat? Good guy! I have been a master chef for so many years, and this is the first time I have seen someone cutting two kilograms of meat at once." After receiving the meat ticket first, the master chef said while neatly cutting off a piece of front leg meat. A lot more, a full two kilograms. "Pig's trotters are only a dime, and this is the only one left. Except for the milk, most people don't buy it. It's too troublesome and has no meat. The cooked pig's trotters outside are only a dime."

so cheap?

Feng Qingxue said hurriedly: "Do you need tickets? We only have two kilograms of meat tickets left."

The master thought for a while, "I don't want your vote for the pig's trotters, nor the pig's head. The meat from the pig's head is cooked and fragrant! You don't need to vote for the water, and the price is low. The remaining half of the pig's head weighs almost four pounds and costs fifty cents." One pound.”

It’s time, if you keep putting it down, no one will buy it.

People who want to buy meat usually queue up early in the morning. If they want it, state-owned restaurants will tell them in advance. If they don’t tell them in advance, they don’t want it.

Sometimes meat cannot be sold not because citizens don’t want to buy it, but because their supply is limited and the meat stamps have run out. This rarely happens because meat is in short supply most of the time.

Feng Qingxue asked Lu Jiang to pay the bill, and asked how to sell the tube bones.

"No tickets, one penny per pound."

"Ajiang, buy some and make some bone soup for everyone. Xibao can drink it too, or make some noodles."

So Feng Qingxue bought two kilograms of lean meat, half a pig's head, a pig's trotter, two tube bones and a large piece of pig intestines that were free of charge. The total cost was three yuan and ninety-eight cents. Patron.

Turning around, Lu Jiang bought two kilograms of high-grade toffee for five yuan.

Sugar coupons cost two catties, milk candies cost two catties, and fruit candies cost still two catties, but fruit hard candies are much cheaper.

Feng Qingxue complained: "Just buy some fruit candies. It doesn't hurt when other people's children come, and it doesn't attract attention. It doesn't matter if you don't take out the candies, and it doesn't matter if you take them out. This doesn't tell other people how we live our lives." Good?"

"I didn't think about it for a moment, so I just wanted to give our children something good to eat." Lu Jiang touched his head and bought it. It was too late to regret it.
