Reborn in 1940 and survived until the new century

But if you really calculate it carefully, everyone’s salary is not high?

In addition to the family's daily expenses, it is also difficult to save money.

Those who can save money are the ones who are careful with their money.

In most families, the man is the breadwinner and the woman is the homemaker. In other words, how the family lives at home is entirely decided by the woman.

This is also why, when I was in Huangzhuang Brigade, those gossipers said that they didn’t know how to live.

The truth is, there is no one like me who goes to the county town all year round whenever there is nothing to do.

Every time, I would always fill my backpack with items, even though most of the items in the backpack were taken out from the space.

They don't know either, they just know that they buy a lot of things and are not good at saving money.

In fact, they didn't know that they were not short of money. It was just that given the situation at the time, they couldn't use it at all, and there was no need to do so. Why make things so complicated?

Besides, it is impossible to do as those female comrades in the team do. They usually do not go to the county town unless there is something important at home. Even if they have eggs saved at home, they are reluctant to eat any of them and only sell them to the supply and marketing cooperative of the commune to exchange for money or other things.

It can be said that after living in Huangzhuang Brigade for more than ten years, it is really impossible to survive by living as frugally as they do.

At the same time, I was the only female comrade there, and just like when I lived in the city, I would hang out in the supply and marketing cooperative whenever I had time, even if I didn't buy anything.

It is true that in this day and age, in this county town, apart from visiting the supply and marketing cooperative, there are not many other places to go.

After finishing my lunch in the cafeteria at noon that day, I saw that it was still early before the afternoon work time and I had nothing to do, so I rushed to the county supply and marketing cooperative. There was nothing I wanted to buy, except that I ran out of soy sauce at home.

Over the years, the tickets previously stored in the space have long been used up, but fortunately, we have no shortage of tickets at home.

As long as there are tickets and time, I will buy them and put them in the space. There has never been a shortage.

While buying soy sauce, I took a look around the supply and marketing cooperative. In fact, I have been here many times, and there is nothing to see. It is still the same as before, without many new things. After looking around, I found that there was nothing missing in my home and space, so I left.

Fortunately, I left early, otherwise I would have really run into Qin Fangfang.

It is said that it is very difficult for the educated youth in the team to come to the city.

In the past, I came here once a month. Every time I came to the county town, I would either buy something or have a meal at a state-owned restaurant.

This year they have not been here for more than two months. Only a few of them came to the county town this time, and most of them were reviewing at the Youth League College.

Their purpose of coming to the county town, in addition to replenishing some supplies, is to help others buy things.

There is no other way. Even if I have to review, I still have to live.

This is because there is no oil and salt in the Youth League Home. If they had either of these two things, they might not run to the county town.

Not far from the supply and marketing cooperative, there was a male educated youth who saw Teacher Guo’s lover passing by, but he did not say anything.

In his eyes, the other person at least lent them the child's review materials. At the same time, he didn't like Qin Fangfang's behavior, so he pretended not to see it, let alone remind Qin Fangfang.

I don't know whether other people saw it or not, but he didn't say much anyway. And because of this, unnecessary trouble was avoided today.

This is because I didn't know. If I knew, I would have to thank the young man very much.

The only inconvenience of moving from the brigade to the city is that when you want to eat meat, you can’t cook it at home, or when you want to stew meat, everyone has to stew it together.

If you stew the meat alone, you can hear the neighbors on both sides.

"Meat, meat, I want to eat meat, I want to eat meat!"

"It smells so good?

Someone is having meat stew, I want to eat meat too, Nai, Nai, when will we have meat at home?"

"Oh my god, who the hell is stewing meat again? I'm so greedy. It's a pity that my meat coupons for this month have been used up a long time ago, otherwise, I could have stewed meat again."

"Eat, eat, you only know how to eat, do you think I look like a piece of meat?

I am small and can’t do much, but I am more enthusiastic about eating than anyone else.”

"Okay, okay, grandma will stew meat for my dear grandson right away.

Ugh!

If you want to eat meat every day, you need to have meat tickets at home, right?

No, I have to see whose family is stewing meat. My dear grandson is so greedy that he can't even eat. I have to settle the score with him."

Not long after, I heard a lot of people gathered at the door of the house next door, and I could hear their noisy conversation.

"I said to him, Aunt Zhang, is there anyone like you?

Don’t you know that my dear grandson is at the age when he is craving for meat?

You're actually stewing meat at this time. Isn't it obvious that our grandson can't eat?"

"Aunt Wu, what do you mean by that? What's wrong with stewing meat at our house?

I haven’t eaten your meat, so why can’t we eat it?

Also, don't bring up your grandson. Everyone knows who you are.

Others may not understand this, but don’t I understand it too?

We have been neighbors for so many years, and you do something like this when someone else is stewing meat. Do you think it's so interesting?

Not to mention, your grandson is not three or five years old anymore, he is already a grown man of eleven or twelve years old. Is he so greedy?

Or are you trying to get meat in the name of your good grandson, but in reality you are eating it yourself?"

"What the hell are you talking about?

Do you believe it or not? If you keep talking nonsense, I will tear your mouth apart. "

"Don't you know whether I'm talking nonsense or not?

If you want to tear my mouth apart, that depends on whether you have the ability to do it."

"you……"

"What are you?

It’s not like the past two years now. If a family eats meat, they have to hide it for fear of being reported.

Now, as long as you have the ability, you can eat meat every day and no one will interfere. As long as you have the meat ticket and the meat comes from a normal source, who will care?

But you, your family has several workers, and you have no shortage of money or tickets, so why do you end up like a beggar? "

"Yeah? His Aunt Wu's family is really like this!"

"is not that right?

You said that if there is only one worker in the family, it is understandable that there are more people.

But that’s not the case with their family. Why does it seem like they can’t survive?

It’s really incomprehensible!”

"Is there anything incomprehensible about this?"

"That's right, no matter how many workers there are in the house, this freeloader never cares about that.

On the contrary, I feel uncomfortable as long as I don’t gain any advantage.”

"how do you know?

Have you ever seen such a person?"
