Siheyuan: 55 years, starting from a buyer

"Mrs. Jia Zhang firmly denied that Bang Geng was a thief. She didn't dare let her grandson be branded as a thief. After all, nowadays, reputation is sometimes more important than life!

"Don't use stealing as an excuse. If you don't steal, you won't be beaten?" The second mother-in-law retorted viciously.

The quarrel escalated and the chaotic scene became difficult to calm down.

It was difficult to separate the two of them, but they continued to accuse each other.

Liu Haizhong realized that Jia Zhangshi could not explain what happened clearly, so he directly questioned Jia Dongxu: "Give an explanation for your son's behavior."

Jia Dongxu was obviously a man who could not take responsibility, so he had no choice but to ask Yi Zhonghai for help.

Yi Zhonghai stepped forward and tried to mediate: "Old Liu, let me say something fair about this matter."

However, the second mother-in-law didn't buy it at all: "Yi Zhonghai, where is your fairness? Your partiality is obvious. We have seen clearly what kind of collusion you have with Jia Zhangshi and Qin Huairu!"

These words almost made Yi Zhonghai faint from anger, and the people in the yard couldn't help but laugh secretly.

At this point, Yi Zhonghai really couldn't say anything. His angry face was extremely gloomy and he just ran back to his room.

Watching his master leaving, Jia Dongxu opened his mouth but no sound came out.

In the tense situation, Jia Dongxu made a surprising move.

He suddenly pulled the stick in front of him, made him fall to the ground, pulled down his pants, and started to teach his son a lesson.

"You were the one who asked me to steal other people's things. You've never seen a cabbage before!" At this time, Jia Dongxu showed his smart response in an emergency.

If he doesn't stop, Banggeng might really be labeled a thief because of this dispute.

"Who told you to look at other people's cabbages hanging out to dry? You deserve to be beaten.

I'll hit you again, and see if you dare to do it again next time!" While scolding, he continued to swing his fist to teach his son a lesson.

Gang Gang Ti Ti lay on the ground crying loudly and resisted with all his might.

"What are you doing! He is your biological son!" Jia Zhang screamed when she saw Jia Dongxu teaching her son a lesson. This was her beloved baby, whom she loved very much.

"Oh my God, my tears!" Jia Zhang pretended to cry and sat on the ground. Qin Huairu followed beside her and cried with dimples on her face, like a pear blossom with tearful eyes.

The idiot Zhu standing next to him almost had his heart broken when he saw this.

However, if Liu Hailiang were to hold the Jia family accountable for what they had done, the situation would be too ugly.

Liu Hailiang spoke unclearly, just groaned, and led his wife and children to the backyard.

Chen Sheng asked Yan Fugui suspiciously: "Where is Secretary Wu? In such a chaotic situation, where did she go?"

"It seems that her wife is about to give birth. She has not been seen in the past few days and is not often in the compound." Yan Fugui was not sure. Maybe it was just some sporadic information he heard from others.

Mr. Chen thought to himself that with Director Wu away recently, there was no one powerful enough to keep things under control in the courtyard, and the chaos would only get worse.

Jia Zhang, who was sitting on the ground crying, stopped sobbing when she saw Liu Hailiang leave. She tried to get up, but her body was too round to move and she fell to the ground again.

Qin Huairu hurried forward to help him, but because he used too much force, he slipped and fell.

At this time, Dementia Pillar saw the opportunity, hurried over and said, "Auntie, please be careful, don't fall again."

On the surface, he seemed to be concerned about Jia Zhang, but in fact, Dementia Zhu's hand had already slid towards Qin Huairu's waist.

How experienced is Jia Zhang? As an old woman who has experienced a lot, she can see through the thoughts of the demented Zhu.

Suddenly, she pushed the idiot who was trying to get close to her away, and said sternly, "What does it have to do with you? Get out of the way."

The Dementia Pillar was completely unprepared for this sudden change and took several steps back, looking quite embarrassed.

Seeing the stupidity of Dementia Zhu, Xu Damao laughed proudly: "This idiot, haha, still wants to take advantage of others and show off in front of Jia Dongxu."

After Jia Zhang stabilized her steps, she immediately took away Gang Gang Ti Ti, whose voice had become hoarse from crying, and hugged him tightly in her arms, gently comforting him: "My dear grandson, my little sweetheart."

Qin Huairu also echoed and comforted Gang Gang Taiti: "Okay, stop crying, Gang Gang Taiti is a good child."

Looking at Gang Gang sobbing and crying, Mr. Chen thought meaningfully that Jia Dongxu's move this time was indeed cruel.

At this time, Yan Fugui took the opportunity to teach his second son Yan Jiekuang, who was about the same age as Gang Gang Ti Ti: "See? A man must have integrity. He cannot steal, let alone rob."

Although everyone had dispersed, Mr. Chen still felt that the matter was not completely over.

Yi Zhonghai was humiliated and Gang Gang Ti Ti was beaten. Another important reason was that Director Wu had been away recently, and she didn't even have the energy to care about minor fights and disputes among the neighbors.

Originally everyone thought this was just an ordinary dispute, but unexpectedly, news of pork purchase restrictions came one after another!

In this day and age, what can undoubtedly make people's anxiety soar is news about food.

I have heard similar rumors before, but now more people are obviously convinced that this is the truth, and it seems that the government does not want to hide it too much.

In the store today,

“Really? Why is there a limit on pork purchases for no reason?” There were still people in the store expressing doubts.

“It’s probably true, that’s what everyone says.

It is said that the leadership above has already held a meeting and decided to do this. "

Rumors spread instantly and everyone in the room was shaken.

But Mr. Chen knew very well that the news was extremely true.

Soon, each person was limited to purchasing an amount of pork equivalent to the value of a piece of currency per day.

By then, even wealthy families will have nowhere to put the bills holding the right to purchase.

After a while, the regulations will be adjusted to three meat coupons per resident per month, with each coupon worth only 0.3 kilograms, and only applicable to urban residents.

Residents like Jia Zhang were not eligible to enjoy it. The longer the time went on, the higher the price of the meat tickets would be.

In fact, for ordinary people, this restriction has little impact.

However, if a rationing system similar to that for staple foods is implemented, it will undoubtedly have an impact on many families.

"Are you saying these are all true?" Purchaser Li seemed a little skeptical.

Purchasing Manager Li actually knew that the current pig supply had been allocated once every two days.

"It is absolutely true. Each household can only buy one dollar's worth of meat a day." Sheng told the buyer Li directly.

"This..." Purchasing Manager Li showed hesitation.

"You're overthinking it. This is all you can do in a month. The impact should be limited." Chen Sheng said.

Yuanyuan added: "Indeed, only the wealthy families will be affected. How much can ordinary people like us eat?"

However, Mr. Chen did not continue to say that with the start of meat rationing next month, the crowd would get busy.

During this period, there were many wealthy people in the suburbs of Beijing.

At that time, the pork factory would become the largest enterprise in the suburbs, and grocery store employees would be in short supply because they controlled the source of meat.

After a brief consideration, Chen Sheng decided to cut the amount of pork he gave to his second brother Lin Shan every month in half, and then distribute it appropriately back to his original family. Even though the amount was small, it was a token of his good intentions.

"Now that the meat coupons are limited, will our store further reduce the quantity?" asked Purchasing Manager Li.

"In the short term, the status quo should remain the same," Chen said frankly. "Even if the situation becomes more difficult in the future, I'm afraid the situation will not change much because meat is indeed scarce."

People in the store are concerned about whether overall shortages will continue, as there are signs that various items are being dwindled.

Moreover, more and more goods require meat coupons, and this change is clearly in front of everyone.

However, people in the yard had different concerns. Their focus was only on whether this would endanger their own food supply.

At the end of the day, Li Sheng just walked into the compound, but was stopped by Uncle Yan Fugui.

"Xiao Chen, I have a question for you." Yan Fugui pulled Chen Sheng aside mysteriously.

"You go ahead." Chen Shengsheng agreed.

"I heard that it's becoming increasingly difficult to buy meat. Is that true?" Yan Fugui asked anxiously.

Mr. Chen responded calmly: "Uncle is very well-informed. He actually cares about this."

"When it comes to life, small things are not small." Yan Fugui said.

"Don't joke, uncle. How many times do you eat meat in a year? Is there any need to worry about this?" As he said that, Chen Shenghuo was about to walk towards the yard.

Yan Fugui stopped Chen Sheng and asked, "Why don't you just tell me the truth?"

Mr. Chen smiled bitterly: "It's probably true, just don't spread it around."

"I understand, I understand." After confirming, Yan Fugui's eyes had already drifted away.

Mr. Chen didn't care much about this, he just admired Yan Fugui for being really sharp-eyed and sharp-eared.

After returning home, Yan Fugui pondered secretly, because he was considering doing business speculation, but if he made pickled meat, he might suffer a loss, and fresh meat was difficult to store for a long time.

For a moment, Yan Fugui was quite troubled.

After returning home, Chen Size predicted that the next twenty years would be a period of severe material shortage.

Even so, he did not have a specific strategy or gambling mentality, which was somewhat inconsistent. After all, his current identity was a doctor with a stable income guarantee.

Otherwise, as a small clerk, it would be good enough for him to avoid hunger and cold during the difficult times.

Although Future may not be popular with the general public, he does work as a regular employee at a grocery store.

When Mr. Chen was immersed in deep thought, there was a knock on the door.

When Mr. Chen opened the door, he saw a cadre named Wu in front of him. He must have come to inquire about the latest situation.

"Comrade Wu, please come in," Chen Shengchang said warmly.

"No need, Brother Chen, I just have something to consult you about." Officer Wu replied.

"What you are talking about is the rationing system that has been hotly debated recently..." Mr. Chen speculated.

"Yes, there are rumors everywhere in the compound. Considering that the information you get working in the grocery store is usually more accurate, I want to talk to you." Officer Wu looked at Mr. Chen expectantly.

Mr. Chen told the truth: “There are indeed rumors of rationing. I heard that each household can only buy one yuan worth of meat every day.
