Sixty-year-old only child: The system taught me how to become rich

Back at the educated youth point, all the educated youths were exhausted and hungry.

Today it was Li Juan's turn to cook. She steamed the extra cornmeal steamed buns she made at noon on the stove, and then threw a few sweet potatoes into the fire to bake.

Then I took out the leeks that I had just harvested from the Wang family next door today and fried them with eggs, and then fried some lettuce. A simple dinner was completed.

When they first arrived, the educated youth had no time to grow vegetables, so all the vegetables they ate were bought from the Wang family next door to the educated youth spot. Fortunately, the food in rural areas is not expensive, so I didn’t spend much money.

Coupled with the recent autumn harvest and high labor intensity, the educated youth are short of oil and water. But not all educated youths could afford meat, so we discussed it and bought some eggs from the Wang family next door.

After all, the size of an egg is quite large, and the price is within the acceptable range of the educated youth. In order to prevent their bodies from being exhausted, all the educated youth agreed to buy eggs as a snack.

Almost as soon as the food was served, the educated youths couldn't wait to gobble it up. No one at the dinner table was in the mood to chat. After all, their stomachs were not full and they had done so much work. How could they still be in the mood to talk?

After dinner, no one stayed in the yard, they all went back to their houses to rest.

Back in the house, the slightly wealthier educated youths were all giving themselves extra meals.

Lin Xiaoyun found a can of canned meat from his locked cabinet and ate it eagerly as soon as he opened it.

This cabinet was built by Lao Li, a carpenter in the village, on the second day after they first came to the brigade. They received 3 yuan and 5 cents for a cabinet.

After all, it was a small business. The cabinet was not big and the craftsmanship was not good, so I didn’t charge much money. Also because it was not expensive, each of the six educated youths bought one.

Zheng Ying and Li Juan who lived in the same room couldn't help but swallowed when they smelled the aroma of canned meat. Zheng Ying couldn't stand the aroma, so she took out a pack of mung bean cakes from her cabinet. Although it is not as good as Lin Xiaoyun's canned meat, the sweet mung bean cake is also very good.

Zheng Ying never liked eating mung bean cakes in the past because her taste was bland and mung bean cakes were too sweet for him.

But one moment is not the other, and the current situation has long since transformed under the baptism of several days of high-intensity farm work. For her, mung bean cake is no longer a sweet pastry, but a supreme delicacy.

Li Juan's financial situation is not as good as that of Zheng Ying and Lin Xiaoyun, but both roommates are eating, and she is really greedy. After hesitating for a while, she still took a few glutinous rice sticks from her cabinet to satisfy her craving. .

The scene in the room of the male educated youth next door is similar. After all, they are all young men. They have to do a lot of work these days, and the little food they are given is not enough.

Du Xuan took out a few pieces of sweet-scented osmanthus cake to eat, Wu Jianshe took a pea cake from the cabinet, and Wang Aiguo also took a few pieces of Zhoucun sesame cake.

After everyone finished eating, they felt that they finally had something in their stomachs, and then went to bed satisfied.

The autumn harvest days have finally passed. Gu Daquan looked at this year's grain and saw that it was a bumper harvest. Everyone was very happy.

There is no way. The great famine in the past few years has really made people scared. They are afraid that God will not give them face and they will go hungry this year. During the famine in those years, many people died in the village.

After handling all the grain, set aside the public grain to be handed over separately, and then collect the remaining grain into the brigade warehouse.

After harvesting the grain, it’s time to go to the commune to distribute grain. Early in the morning, Gu Daquan called on the young men in the village to move the grain. If the oxcart could not be loaded, the young men in the village pushed it on a cart and carried it in a bamboo basket.

Today the educated youth also followed. It’s been a while since they came here, and because the autumn harvest was just around the corner, they had never been to the commune once. It just so happened that the autumn harvest was over now, so I went with the villagers and took the opportunity to buy some daily necessities.

A few educated youths who had money and tickets also wanted to go to the commune to buy some food and replenish their health.

With this idea in mind, some of the educated youths left.

Xiangrong Brigade is very close to the commune, about half an hour's walk. As soon as they arrived at the commune, the educated youths were separated from the commune members. The members of the commune had to pay the public rations first. The educated youth were worried that they didn't have enough time, so they went shopping on their own first.

Xiangrong's brigade was the first to arrive, and the other brigade had not yet arrived, so they were the first to hand over the public rations. But it didn’t take long for the people from the Dongfeng Brigade to arrive.

"Captain Gu, your team Xiangrong arrived so early. Early this morning, before dawn, I called everyone here. I didn't expect that I still couldn't be the first one. It's good to be close to the commune. "

Wang Chunping spoke as soon as he arrived.

"No matter what, our team came very early in the morning, not much earlier than your team."

Gu Daquan said with a smile.

"Oh, forget it, almost is still bad. It seems that this year's outstanding team will not get our turn."

Gu Daquan smiled and did not answer.

Wang Chunping didn't care and talked about other topics.

Looking at the educated youth side, several educated youths did not choose to go to the supply and marketing cooperative first. Instead, they went to the post office to send letters home and see if they had their own letters.

Lin Xiaoyun, Zheng Ying and Du Xuan all received packages from home. After all, it was difficult to take too many things on the train, so many of their things were sent to the post office, and they arrived just in time.

Wu Jianshe, Wang Aiguo and Li Juan didn't have any parcels. They didn't have too much stuff, so they all took it with them on the train.

But the package was too big to handle. Lin Xiaoyun, Zheng Ying and Du Xuan temporarily left the package at the post office after finishing their work, preparing to go to the supply and marketing cooperative to buy things first.

When we arrived at the supply and marketing cooperative, the place was really crowded. Because the autumn harvest has just ended, the commune members have time to visit the commune.

In addition, there was no time to come to the commune due to the autumn harvest some time ago, so everyone was short of something at home, so it was a good time to come to the supply and marketing cooperative to buy it.

No, everyone bumped into each other. There were so many people that some counters at the supply and marketing cooperative were empty. After all, items such as matches and needlework are in demand by many people, so they are naturally sold out.

Seeing this situation, the educated youths were also anxious.

"Oh, let's go in quickly, otherwise everything we need will be sold out by then."

Li Juan said eagerly.

Unfortunately, the crowd was too dense. Of course, the newly arrived educated youths could not crowd out the experienced ladies.

After a lot of effort, a few educated youths finally squeezed into the supply and marketing cooperative.

"It was so terrible, my hair was all messed up."

Lin Xiaoyun was still frightened.

"Isn't that right? I was halfway there when I couldn't hold on any longer and wanted to leave, but I couldn't get out at all. The crowd kept pushing me in."

Wu Jianshe also patted his chest.

"No matter, we've squeezed in. Let's go buy something quickly, otherwise everything will be sold out later and we will suffer this time in vain."

Zheng Ying was very anxious. After finishing speaking, she ignored the others and ran directly to the counter where the goods were sold.

Seeing this, the others stopped talking nonsense and imitated Zheng Ying and rushed forward.
