The Siheyuan started with the young He Yuzhu

Chapter 228 The Deaf Old Lady

A few days ago, on a street in front of Nanxiang, piles of Chinese cabbage were piled up on both sides of the street, and the price was very cheap, three cents a catty.

Under normal circumstances, every household basically hoards hundreds of catties of Chinese cabbage for the winter.So whoever chooses the cabbage they want, the salesperson will use a flatbed truck or a tricycle to deliver the cabbage to your door.

Even He Yuzhu was not spared. The small utility room at home was vacated by Qin Huairu and filled with Chinese cabbage.

Maybe he was tired of shouting, but the salesperson saw that no one came to buy it, so he had to go back into the house.At this time, a few kids nearby saw that the cart full of Chinese cabbage was left unattended, secretly took two of them, turned around and went into the alley.

The salesman, who was belatedly aware of it, came out and saw that those little kids had run away, and immediately said angrily: "I don't care about the kids from any family, they dare to steal things from the public house, and I will catch them next time. It must be sent to a correctional institution!"

After cursing for a while, the salesman didn't dare to go into the house to hide from the snow, so he shrank his neck, sat on the cart, and started selling again.

He Yuzhu, who witnessed all this, smiled at the corner of his mouth, suddenly feeling amused.

Not long after, it was finally He Yuzhu's and Qin Huairu's turn to enter the non-staple food store. As soon as they entered, they saw four or five people surrounding a certain item, chatting with the salesperson.

Looking over, it was a pile of cooked meat!He Yuzhu was surprised that there were cooked food in the non-staple food store.

He visited a non-staple food store with Qin Huairu before, and most of the non-staple food stores only sold some non-staple food such as sugar, sesame paste, vermicelli, eggs, alkali, etc.

Peanuts, melon seeds, octopus, yellow croaker and other commodities will be supplied in a quantitative manner during the Spring Festival.Scanning around the cooked food, in addition to stewed beef, there is also stewed pig's head meat, and there are many stewed animal heads on the side. He looked carefully and asked in surprise: "Is this a rabbit's head?"

"Well, five-spice rabbit heads, limited supply." The salesperson nodded, and the new year is coming soon, and the store bought a little more for the non-staple food store in Sijiu City. In addition to the regular cooked food, there are some that don't need non-staple food to buy. Quantitative commodities.

For example, this rabbit head can be bought for money without a ticket for the non-staple food book.

"Five-spice rabbit heads? How much is one?" He Yuzhu smashed his mouth. He hasn't eaten rabbit meat for a long time, and Qin Huairu brought two of them last time.

Although there is no meat in the rabbit head, it tastes great when you drink it!

"One for five minutes with ears, one for four cents without ears."

so cheap!When he heard that a rabbit head was only four or five cents, He Yuzhu was very surprised. He looked down at the rabbit heads in the eye cabinet. There were more than 30 rabbit heads, and said directly: "I covered all the rabbit heads."

"Buy them all?" The salesperson was stunned.

"Well, I bought them all." He took out the money and said, "Help me count how many."

"Oh, ok." Seeing that it was serious, the salesperson immediately picked up the big clip and began to put the rabbit heads into the paper bag, counting while filling, and finally said: "35, fifteen with ears, seventy-five cents, Twenty and eighty cents without ears, a total of one and a half cents."

"Here, here you are." He Yuzhu counted the money and just took it out and handed it to the other party.

Seeing that He Yuzhu had bought so many rabbit heads, the women nearby shook their heads and said, "One yuan and five is enough to buy two catties of pork. Wouldn't it be nice to buy two catties of pork with this money?"

Although the rabbit head tastes good, there is really no meat.It is impossible for ordinary people to spend this money to buy rabbit heads to eat. It will not fill their stomachs and have no oil and water. It is better to buy two catties of pork to eat.

He Yuzhu glanced at these women, smiled, but didn't say anything.He still has a lot of spirit spring space for pork and so on, which is enough for him to eat anyway.

"Brother Yuzhu, I've bought it." Qin Huairu bought sugar and mahjong at this time, saw He Yuzhu carrying the paper bag, and asked curiously, "Brother Yuzhu, what did you buy?"

"Just a little five-spice rabbit head, is it ready? Let's go and buy mutton and go home to eat hot-boiled mutton."

Saying that, he took Qin Huairu's hand and walked out of the shop.Leaving behind a few women with envious faces, boiled mutton, this is a feast!

……

The courtyard is full of birds.

"Old lady, you will live in this backyard from now on."

Several soldiers in military uniform helped an elderly man into the courtyard.The old lady’s eyesight was not very good. After entering the yard with the support of several people, she gratefully held someone’s hand and said, “Okay, okay, thank you to the party and the country, without you, my old lady would really be homeless.” Come back."

A military officer sighed and said: "You should be an old lady, your son is a battle hero, and you even helped the motherland back then. The motherland and the people will never forget you."

"Thank you, thank you." The old lady thought of her son and wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes.The movement here attracted the attention of everyone in the courtyard, and people came out of the house one after another.When I saw a few soldiers holding some luggage, and a man who looked like an officer was helping an old lady into the hospital.

This combination surprised everyone.

When the first uncle Yi Zhonghai saw that the second and third uncles had come out, he took the initiative to step forward and said, "This comrade, I don't know who you are?"

"Hello, my name is Jiang Defu. Entrusted by the chief, I bring the mother of this battle hero to settle down."

Following the officer Jiang Defu's narration, the uncle and others knew that a room in the backyard that had been vacant before was allocated by the government to the old lady to live in.Moreover, the old lady's son was a battle hero back then. After the unfortunate death, there was only one old mother in the family. After the superiors learned about it, they also sent people not far away to bring him to Sijiu City.

Originally, I wanted to arrange it into a compound and let the family members of a few comrades help to take care of it, but the old lady insisted, saying that coming to Forty-Nine City has already disturbed everyone, and she had to live alone.In the end, the superior made a selection, and chose a courtyard with a large number of people for the old lady to live in. At the same time, he asked the people in the sub-district office to spare one or two people to wash and cook for the old lady every month.

"It turned out to be the hero's mother!" The great master Yi Zhonghai heard that the white-haired old lady in front of him turned out to be the mother of a sacrificed battle hero, and said in awe, "Officer Jiang, don't worry, since the old lady is going to be here Settling down, we neighbors will definitely help if we can, and we will definitely not have any complaints!"

Jiang Defu looked at Yi Zhonghai with satisfaction. He personally sent the old lady to live in the Qinman Courtyard this time. The purpose was to let the neighbors around know that this old lady is not an ordinary person.Not just the mother of a hero, but also the descendants of senior officers like herself, no matter what happens in the future, she will have her backing.

"Thank you, comrade, but I still don't know your name?"
