From Cultivator to Widow

Su An intends to go to the recycling station to see if there are other furniture, such as shelves or cabinets. If there are small boxes, they can be used, and books should also be prepared.

Zhang Baoguo is now in the third grade, and there will be another semester after the spring, which is the fourth grade. There are no textbooks for the fourth grade. Zhang Weiguo will also go to school. He will be 8 years old in the spring. He can use the textbooks that Zhang Baoguo used, but he does not need to Buy.

She didn't pay attention to current affairs for a while. If she had old newspapers, she could take it back, read it herself, and assign homework to her children.

The recycling station is very big and messy. There are two people, one is the old man, sitting on a chair and drinking tea slowly, when he sees her coming, he raises his eyelids: "What are you doing?"

There's a guy in the back who's sorting things out.

"Master, I'm here to find textbooks for the children at home, and old newspapers too."

The uncle took her to a shelf.

"This side is the textbook, it's all here, you can find it by yourself, that's the newspaper, a penny a pound."

This pile of books is said to be textbooks, but in fact it has everything. Of course, some books that are not allowed in this era are not available. Those have been burned. The recycling bins recycle things that still have value.

When Su Hui saw the textbook, she took it out and put it aside. There are not many classes now. She quickly found all the textbooks from elementary school to junior high school. Although it was a bit worn out and had dense notes, it was usable and clear. She only found two of her textbooks, and she took them out. In addition, there was an ancient poem, a medical book, and mathematics or physics that she didn't seem to understand. She clipped them into the textbook.

Then I went to get some recent newspapers and tried to pick the ones that were not repeated.

Seeing so many books she picked, the uncle was a little surprised: "Do you want so many?"

"There are four children in my family, and I am a teacher in the village. I want to buy it and see if it can help."

It was the teacher.

The uncle nodded and weighed.

The book is thin and does not look heavy, but the weight will come up when the number is large, and there are nearly 30 pounds in total.

Then look at the furniture.

Now the source of these furniture is smashed and robbed of other people's homes, and those full of capital flavor have been smashed into firewood.

Su An was a little disappointed. It seemed that the things that Sun Qiang pulled back last time were probably good things that she had kept in private. She looked around and didn't see anything better.

In the end, she picked three boxes, asked them for an unused stick, put the book in the box, and carried it back.

One box for books, one box for sundries, and one box for the four brothers.

They were very happy to have their own boxes, and they put their "treasures" in them one after another, including the cobblestones that they finally picked up, the beautiful leaves, and the broken glass that I didn't know where to pick up... all kinds of various.

Then Su An faced another problem. She bought the cloth, but she couldn't make clothes.

But the original body can, just like cooking, she should pick it up quickly, right?

Su An thought uncertainly, thinking about making clothes, and was a little eager to try.

Never done, fresh.

She started experimenting with old clothes. Now she can make clothes very quickly. The shape is the same. Just measure the size, sew them together, and you're done. As long as the stitches are fine, a dress is ready.

Early in the morning, Zhang Chengye blew his whistle and called everyone to gather.

Today is their day of distribution.

In fact, the serious grain distribution days are during the spring and autumn harvests. Now, all the grains are distributed after the autumn harvest. However, in comparison, the bulk of the grains are still sweet potatoes, and there are also refined grains, but they are very few. It is estimated that it will be enough for the New Year. Make a meal.

Su An received the share of her own family. Zhang Gen looked at the pile of sweet potatoes and made an estimate. The second family's private plot has not started to be planted, and there is no sweet potato subsidy for the private plot. These are not enough to last until the spring harvest. I gave her two boxes of the sweet potatoes I had distributed, and it was almost done.

"Live a good life in the future, if you have any difficulties, come and say."

These children of the second family have to be raised well.

After the food is divided, there is another highlight, that is to divide the money.

At this time, what they do every day is work points, which are settled and used to exchange food, and only the extra money can be distributed. If there is not enough to eat, it will owe the collective.

You can save money only if you have a lot of strong labor, more work points, and a good year, but generally speaking, if the money distributed by the family reaches 30 at the end of the year, it is very good. Salt and other expenses, very little left.

Su An is one of those who don't have money. When building a house, she used her work points for wood and other things.

Divided, some happy and some sad.

Without her own business, Su An moved the food to the house, and Zhang Quan helped under Zhang Gen's instruction.

When he arrived at the second brother's house, he looked at it, and the house had changed a lot compared to before.

The small things in the house have been added more neatly, and it is not as empty as before. The house is clean, and the private land is also leveled. Look at the soft ones, waiting for the spring to scatter the seeds.

My sister-in-law is having a good time.

The closer to the new year, the stronger the taste of the new year. The food and money have just been distributed, and the next day is the day to hand in the task pig to the town.

Each village has a task, which stipulates how many pigs to raise and turn in. In their village, there are special pig pens and special personnel responsible for this.

In addition, each family raises pigs privately, and they have to hand over half of them to the state, and then the remaining half is theirs.

If half of the money is given to the country, a certain amount of meat tickets will also be returned. For example, if a pig is 100 pounds, 50 pounds is the country's, and 30-50 pounds of meat tickets will be returned to support the country, and the remaining 50 pounds will be Your own, if you want to eat it yourself, take it back, but if you want to sell it, it must be sold to the state.

As long as they have the ability, they will keep a pig at home, and the biggest profit in a year depends on that pig.

Li Manfen raised a pig.

Many people can't afford to raise pigs, and they don't have enough to eat. Where can they still have the energy to raise pigs? However, Zhang Gen and the others have enough manpower that a pig can still afford it.

When going to hand in the task pigs, Zhang Chengye took the hand-picked strong laborers to drive out the fattest pigs and rushed to the town. The task was completed, and the rest belonged to their own village. Ask the butcher to sharpen his knives. The village could hear the shrill screams of the pigs, but the number of onlookers continued unabated.

This is meat, fragrant meat!

Zhang Baoguo and his three younger brothers were also joining in the fun. Only Zhang Anguo, who did not dare to go listening to the screams of the pigs, stayed at home by himself.

Zhao Xialan looked at the screaming pig, her eyes shining: "This pig is strong! It must be fat!"

Zhang Baoguo has eaten a lot of meat recently, but he has not become greedy at all.

Zhao Xialan is nervous: "Wait for the lottery, I must be better! Bless me, I must draw fat!"

Su An looked at the big fat pig, and felt a little regretful. Why didn't she encounter so much meat when she went up the mountain?

During Chinese New Year, you should eat a lot, right?
