Siheyuan: After Hu Qinhuairu was cut off, I lay flat

However, Qin Guangming had already moved out after getting married, and lived in a courtyard in Qianmen Street Hutong.

"Ah hello."

Li Wuwei nodded and said, "Meimei, when you give birth, brother-in-law will give you a reward." Thank you brother-in-law! "

Tang Meimei is an honest rural girl, hardworking and willing to work. It was Qin's mother who went to the countryside to find her son.

"son in law!"

"Uncle!"

The father-in-law, third uncle, and third aunt are all in the courtyard, including the second uncle's baby, this one, he still hasn't remembered what his name is.

"Brother-in-law!"

Xiao Jingru and her elder brother Qin Guangjun also ran over.

Many people lived in the courtyard, but when Qin Guangming got married, Qin Huairu made a rule that if the younger generation got married, they had to move out, but they could come back to live occasionally, and they would not be charged rent when they were guests.

Li Wuwei thought it was good, and moved out for the benefit of these people, otherwise there was no way to have no room.

When he arrived at the north room, he took a sip of tea and saw that everyone followed in. Well, he is the backbone of the old Qin family.

"Qianba, what's your name?"

"Brother-in-law, my name is Guang Jian. My father said that I was not easy to support when I was a child, so I called it Jian Wa."

Jianwa scratched his head, sometimes he even forgot his name.

"Yeah, let's ask you to pick up the baby. How are your parents doing now?

I keep talking about going to the countryside, but I haven't been to the village for many years. "

When Li Wuwei went to the village now, he didn't even have to eat, and the houses were not allowed to open fire. If he went, it would not be a deformation trick, but suffering.

"My parents are very good. They eat the public canteen in the brigade, and eat breakfast in the canteen. They also pay three yuan a month, but the land is gone and they return to the commune..."

Jianwa scratched her head again, she doesn't look very smart, but she can endure hardships, learned to cook with He Daqing, and now she can learn to cook, probably because He Daqing wanted to be lazy, so she stepped up to train apprentices.

"Well, do you eat casually in the cafeteria, or something?"

Li Wuwei is not very clear about this, he lacks experience in rural life.

"It's not just eating casually. It's the same as the ration in the city. It's graded. There are eight grades according to age and labor force. Every household has a registration.

There were more than 200 people eating in the cafeteria in my team. Each family ordered meals and took them home to share.

There are few fine grains, so what we eat is gray noodles, and there are a lot of coarse grains and stick noodles, so we eat them together.”

Picking up the baby is quite clear, he went back to the countryside for a blind date a while ago, but he didn't meet the black-faced girl.

"pretty good."

Li Wuwei probably understood that the rural areas around the capital are still doing well so far, because they are not the main land for grain collection. The real difficulties will be next year and the year after.

Then he asked about Xia Guangshu's situation. This is Jingru's second brother, who made a lot of steel last year and was mobilized to work as a temporary worker in the steel factory in Shijingshan.

After chatting for a while, Jianwa and Guangjun went to work in the kitchen. As for the ingredients, Li Wuwei asked He Daqing to prepare them in advance, and asked the two brothers-in-law to bring them back, which was enough for a hearty meal behind closed doors.

"Third Uncle, I'll take Jingru back in the afternoon and fix the tuition fees. Don't worry about it. I'll take care of her."

Li Wuwei lit a cigarette but didn't smoke it.

Because the father-in-law and the third uncle both smoke dry tobacco and wrap their own tobacco leaves, which are cheap, and a pack and a half of cigarettes can be exchanged for a catty of dry tobacco.

"Hey! Listen to my uncle."

The third uncle has not paid tuition fees since the year before last. He has to save money to marry his two sons. As for the daughter, it is good to live with the 4.6 uncle.

"Brother-in-law, you are taking me back."

Jingru was wandering around the door, and rushed in when she heard this.

"Take you back to live a hard life. After school starts, there will be no fine grains for sale in the school, only miscellaneous noodles."

In fact, before junior high school, there were several staple foods, such as rice, white noodles, steamed buns with stick noodles, as well as gray flour buns and sorghum black buns brought by students.

But now that there is a shortage of refined grains, it has been changed to miscellaneous noodles, steamed bread and self-contained grains.

It will be much better when you are in high school, because the quantification has increased.College students are even better, so you still need to study more.

Conversely, nowadays there is only corn bread in primary schools, not even heterozygous noodles, and the quota for primary school students is low.

"Brother-in-law, I'm not afraid of living a hard life."

Little Jingru wanted to go back and live with her brother-in-law.

"Hey, my brother-in-law loves to hear that."

Li Wuwei smiled, and let Jingru take Guan Xiang to eat coarse grains when he returned home, while he and Qin Huairu hid to eat fine grains. In the world of adults, there is no easy word!

Chapter 379 Are You Taking This Test Cadre?

"dinner's ready."

"Brother-in-law, it's time to eat."

There were a lot of people in the courtyard, so they took the food to the living room of the north room in one trip, and set up two tables.

Li Wuwei took it for granted that he sat at the top, regardless of the orientation, as long as he faced the gate. If it was the north room of the courtyard, he would sit facing south.

"Let's eat it all. Although it is a disaster year, the days to come will only get better and better. He said a few words about soup, and then moved his chopsticks. There are no special dishes, but braised pork, pickled fish, fried pork, etc. Pork liver and egg custard are considered meat dishes, and there are two other vegetarian dishes.

The staple foods are white noodles and mixed noodles, and there are few white noodles, so children eat them closely.

There is still wine, and the commune is also making wine, using sweet potatoes or sorghum. In the early years, some villagers secretly brewed wine by themselves and brought it to the city to exchange for food stamps.

The food is five flavors, the wine is three rounds, everyone is delicious, and others outside can't eat enough, so how dare they eat meat like this.

After the meal, Li Wuwei hugged his youngest son and played for a while.

Qin Huairu was packing things for the eldest son, and Jingru also packed them.

Qin's mother came over and said, "Son-in-law, when Meimei is born, let her mother come to the city to take care of the confinement child."

"Mom, it's not good, but what about your grandson?"

Li Wuwei had considered this issue before, he was the son-in-law after all.

"What's wrong with the grandson, Meimei is not at work, so she can take care of the children."

Qin's mother still wants to live with her son-in-law, because she will love others, and the son-in-law said before that he will support her in the elderly.

Besides, her two sons are both in the city, and it is not impossible to see her grandson.

"Okay, you take Chaoyang here. I will arrange for Chaoyang to study in kindergarten here."

Li Wuwei was able to take his youngest son back, but the problem was that his mother-in-law went back with him, and there were only two in his family who had no rations.

Moreover, the father-in-law's family cannot be used as an excuse, and the villagers in the countryside have no food at home.

So I left my youngest son here, and he, grasping the tail of his youth, is living a leisurely life.

"By the way, Mom, this is next month's living expenses. It doesn't matter whether you are in the courtyard or not, you have to take it. If you have more, save it yourself."

As he said that, he took 30 yuan, don't underestimate it, it is [-] yuan a year, and some families only earn this amount.

"Hey!"

Qin's mother looked happy, but when she turned around, she returned ten yuan to her daughter with a straight face.

"Mom, just take Chaoyang with you, it won't cost you twenty dollars a month."

Qin Huairu did the math, mom has saved a lot of money over the years.

"I can save it for Guan Xiang and Chaoyang."

Qin's mother left with a straight face. Her daughter earned one hundred and twenty a year from her, and she is still not satisfied.

Qin Huairu was not annoyed either, knowing her mother's virtues, she collected the ten yuan and saved it for her son to marry a wife.

"Chaoyang, you have to be obedient if you stay here. Dad will come to see you in a few days."

Li Wuwei has no worries about parting, how tiring it is to take care of the children.

"dad."

But Xiao Chaoyang was reluctant and wanted to follow, but was tricked by a candy to play in the backyard.

"Dad, third uncle, let's go first."

"Slow down the road."

When going back, Qin Huairu couldn't ride the bike anymore, and couldn't carry Jingru and Guan Xiang.

Li Wuwei had to come, with a lot of strength, a bicycle, and four people to return to the courtyard safely, which is really impossible for ordinary people.

"Oh, come back now, turn off the sound, let's have fun in the countryside!"

Yan Bugui is also weaving bamboo baskets in the front yard. He and Jia Dongxu went to chop the bamboo yesterday.

Xiaoguan Xiang has not been short of food and clothing since he was a child, and he also has pocket money. He has never suffered, not only has he not learned the tricks of his father, he can't even tell a lie.

Seeing this, Li Wuwei changed the topic, "Third Lord, I have an appointment with Dongxu to go to Zuojiazhuang, so he told you."

"Say, go tomorrow? None of us go to work."

Yan Bugui paused for a moment and said, "Fortunately, you didn't go to Lao Liu's house at noon today. The banquet you agreed to, hey, it's just a meat dish, so I moved my chopsticks and it's gone."

"No way, my second uncle is so stingy?"

Li Wuwei asked Qin Huairu to take the two children back first, and he stayed for a few words.

"That's impossible. There is only one stewed pork, one scrambled egg, and three vegetarian dishes on the table, and the staple food is not enough, less than two mixed noodles per person.

It's the worst banquet we've had in our courtyard for so many years. "

Yan Bugui was given to accompany the gift, and he was the only one in the family to eat wine, and he could understand the zero calamity year. There was a shortage of supplies, but he just ate a mixed noodle, a piece of braised pork, and two chopsticks of eggs, which was a big loss. sent.

"This is not authentic!"

Li Wuwei shook his head, seeing that the second aunt had lost a lot of weight, he couldn't say anything more, and he couldn't buy supplies even if he had money.

"By the way, where is Xie Cheng, are you at home?"

"At home, Xie Cheng, come out quickly, your brother is here."
