In the 1960s, my whole family was murdered by my enemies.

"Mom, I didn't get one today. Don't worry, I'll go get another one later."

"Hey, this thing is worthless now. Forget it if we can't get it. We still have some food at home. If we cook the porridge thinner, it can last for two days. But my granddaughter-in-law will cry. She is in confinement after childbirth and doesn't even have eggs to eat."

"It's okay, grandma, mom, I'm fine, just eat some porridge."

Zhang Lin: …

This is the staff quarters of a certain unit. How could this family be living such a miserable life?

Hey!

This era of food and clothing shortages is really hard to endure.

There are quite a few people in this family. There is a sick elderly person and a person who is in confinement after childbirth. They all really need nutrition.

No wonder this aunt wanted to exchange it for ten kilograms of eggs as soon as she opened her mouth.

She herself should know that it is impossible, she just wants to bargain and leave some room for maneuver.

Unexpectedly, the other party was so ruthless and directly bargained down to five eggs!

Such a precious set of jewelry, five eggs!

She would rather starve to death than give it away.

but……

Fang Yue looked at the old and young in the family and sighed.

One is her husband's biological mother, and the other is her biological daughter-in-law. She can't ignore either of them...

If it really doesn't work, replace them one by one, and replace some of the things first.

It’s just a pity that this set of jewelry that was passed down from her husband’s family was wasted.

Her mother-in-law had kept it for decades and passed it on to her after she gave birth to a child.

She was attracted to it at first sight.

It's so beautiful!

pity……

Zhang Lin quietly left the tube-shaped building, removed the invisibility charm, used the disguise charm, and changed into the appearance of the middle-aged woman she was when she first changed her watch. She carried a large basket in her hand and quietly waited in the alley next to the family compound.

Sure enough, in less than half an hour, Fang Yue came out again.

She was carrying a basket of vegetables and holding the small cloth bag in her arms, with a look of anxiety on her face.

She walked towards the alley where Zhang Lin was hiding out of habit.

This alley is where people who normally come to buy things or exchange supplies secretly come to trade.

There was no one here when she came out before, so she went to another alley to try her luck.

After entering the alley, I saw Zhang Lin squatting in the corner from a distance, with a large basket covered with cloth in front of him.

Fang Yue's eyes lit up. After observing for a while, she walked up and said in a low voice, "Big sister, are you waiting for someone?"

Zhang Lin raised her eyes and revealed an annoyed look: "Sister, I came to look for my mother's relatives, but I didn't find this person. The things I brought for her have to be taken back again, ah."

Fang Yue understood.

She understands!

She is also waiting for relatives to send gifts!

"Hey, I'm also waiting for a relative. He said he would help me change some things, but he still hasn't come after waiting for two days..."

Zhang Lin was amazed.

Nowadays, everyone is an Oscar winner, but look at Aunt Fang Yue, her acting is so realistic.

If I hadn't figured out Fang Yue's situation long ago, and if she was really a young and naive person, she might have been stunned.

"That's a good relationship, let's pay it back!"

After waiting for half an hour, Zhang Lin didn't want to waste any more time and didn't care whether his acting skills were up to par, so he acted rather perfunctorily.

Fang Yue smiled secretly.

This girl has no patience at all. She is not suitable to come out to exchange things because she can easily be fooled.

The two of them talked back and forth, and Fang Yue took out the thing and showed it to Zhang Lin.

Zhang Lin sighed inwardly.

Just now, this aunt had a sympathetic expression on her face, as if she was being gullible.

Doesn’t my aunt realize that she is the one who is really easy to deceive?

Fortunately, she is not a bad person.

Zhang Lin had her eyes on that set of jewelry in the first place, and Fang Yue was such an honest and decent person. The family, with one old and one young, was in such a difficult situation, but the whole family was so harmonious, which made her feel a little sympathy for this kind family.

Zhang Lin lifted the cloth a little, allowing Fang Yue to see what was inside.

After Fang Yue saw it clearly, her heart started pounding.

"This……"

day!

She saw something.

There was actually a living old hen with its beak and wings tied up.

There were also some eggs, a large piece of pork, and a pork bone!

It's all she needs!

"Sister...sister..."

Fang Yue's lips were trembling. She looked at Zhang Lin and couldn't speak for a long time.

She was too embarrassed to say that she wanted to exchange this set of jewelry for these things.

"Big sister, I really like this set of jewelry. It just so happens that a relative of mine is going to get married soon, and I want to buy something for the new wife, and I liked this set at first sight."

Fang Yue felt more at ease after hearing this.

No matter what, this girl doesn't look like someone who would give up five eggs in exchange for her family heirloom.

"So, sister, how are you going to change?"

Fang Yue stared at Zhang Lin nervously.

"All of these, and return your jewelry, the pair of pearl earrings and the silver bracelet in your bag at home."

Zhang Lin only wanted that set of jewelry, but the things she took out were so many that if she generously returned them, Fang Yue might still feel uneasy.

Sure enough, after hearing Zhang Lin want all the things in her bag, Fang Yue was not surprised at all. She even felt that what she had was far from enough.

No matter where she is, she can't exchange so many things these days.

"Big sister, are you telling the truth?"

Fang Yue confirmed carefully.

Zhang Lin secretly shook his head. She was indeed too honest. If it were someone else, they would definitely be afraid that she would regret it and would drop her things, grab the basket and run away.

"Really, each one takes what he needs. I still have these things."

"you also have?!"

Fang Yue hesitated.

How should she keep in touch with this older sister?

These days, no one wants to reveal their secrets to others.

Besides, she doesn't have many good things left at home. Even if she changes them, she can't change them twice...

"Yes, I come out once a month. If Big Sister wants to change things in the future, maybe we can meet again."

……

After Fang Yue returned home with the things, the two women, one old and one young, looked at the sack in shock.

That’s right, Fang Yue was carrying a large bag with her, and Zhang Lin did not give her the basket.

With trembling hands, Fang Yue took out an old hen weighing at least four or five kilograms from the bag.

The old lady's lips trembled, and she stammered a few times without uttering a word.

Then, Fang Yue took out a bag of eggs, thirty in total.

There was also a large piece of pork, which was of very good quality and weighed at least two kilograms.

There is also a big leg bone, which can be used to make a big pot of soup, the kind that is very fragrant.

The whole family cried with joy.

They all felt they had made a lot of money.

Zhang Lin, who has already left, also feels that he has made a lot of money.

However, Fang Yue's family really needs food more now, otherwise it is hard to say whether the whole family can survive.

As for jewelry...

In her previous life, her sister had been in a long-term relationship with her boyfriend for eight years and they were just discussing getting married when she traveled through time.

She also owed her sister a wedding present.

It would be great if this set of jewelry could be given to her sister.

Zhang Lin couldn't help but think of their childhood.

At the beginning, the two of them loved to use the stems of sweet potato leaves to make necklaces and earrings, and they had a lot of fun.
