There is Room for Rebirth in the 1950’s

Lihong, these homemade cloths are really cheap, but cotton is expensive, so I didn't use cotton tickets, no wonder I made them myself. Lin Lishan sighed.

Cheng Lihong laughed and gave her a sideways look, It must be cheaper for you to buy cotton in summer, but it's winter now, sister. You still think it's expensive. You've emptied this place, so I'm probably in a hurry to find cotton. He ordered this cotton in the summer, and there was a lot of it. Now who doesn't hurry up to grow food to fill their stomachs?

A village is not enough to support three quilts weighing 8 catties. In the winter, they like to marry a daughter-in-law to celebrate the New Year. Everyone in the village makes up the money first, and then pays back in the coming year. Brothers and sisters in the city also crowded together on the same kang in winter. Many people do not have cotton to make padded jackets, and they add straw to the old cotton inside. If you look at the shivering people on the road, they all have straw inside the padded jackets. Believe it or not, the entire county does not have as many quilts as your Jiaojiao quilts?

Lin Lishan nodded straight with a smile, I'm in the army, I've been assigned and I forgot about it. Do you have enough quilts? Go back and bring two beds from mine. They are all new. They were taken by Zhao Chuanguang in the morning. That's right. It's narrow, just enough for a bachelor and a little girl to sleep alone.

Cheng Hongli nodded again and again, and gestured happily, My son is fine, but my daughter's quilt has been covered for three years, and it is not warm anymore, and it is hard. In winter, I always say that the bottom is hot and the door is cold. Cover her with a military coat. I originally wanted to add new cotton this year and play it again. In the past few years, Lao Zhao’s relatives have to help with difficulties. I have two sons and a daughter in the family. I dare not spend money.

Lin Lishan looked at her sympathetically, You look like my second sister-in-law. Her natal family still lives in a compound. Her father and three brothers, her mother's two brothers and three younger sisters are all in the countryside. His family is in the capital. Yes, I'm still a high-ranking official. If I need something, I can go to them. My family is poor. My second sister-in-law and her mother haven't worked yet, so I have three sons and two daughters. When I meet a dozen nephews and grandchildren, I have to follow suit Gifts, you have to follow the gift when you have a baby, and every time you come back to the capital, you will bring back a big bag or a small bag.

Fortunately, my second sister-in-law went to the Northwest. If she was in the capital, she would probably cry. Her relatives would look for her every time they came back. Our two families are both in the compound, not far away. I heard from my mother that people from his hometown kept coming to his house for a year, and sometimes they couldn’t live in Datongpu. My second sister-in-law's mother didn't have more than three sets of clothes, so someone gave them away when she had them. Hehe, once when my mother went to his house, she just put down her military overcoat and went to the bathroom. When she came out to look, it was gone. It took me a long time to find that it was already worn by a fellow villager. Haha, it’s so ridiculous.

Cheng Hongli laughed along with her, Then your mother dares to go there in the future? The burden on this family is too great, and I have to find a way to solve it. If my life continues like this, home will not feel like home.

Is there any way, when people come, you drive them away? I haven't even arranged work for them, so I have to give them money and things, right? Otherwise, my reputation will be bad. My second sister-in-law and three brothers dare not go home. Stay in the unit and live in the dormitory with your wife. There are many such people in the compound, but it’s not as excessive as them.”

Cheng Hongli asked curiously: What about your house? No poor relatives come to the door?

My father is an orphan, and my mother's family is not short of money. If I have the ability, I don't need my mother to help the village. My parents really don't have any poor relatives. My eldest brother and Zheng brother are on missions, and my sister-in-law belongs to the Women's Federation just like you. Her mother’s family is full of workers, so there’s no need to find our family. Some also said that she took care of it herself. The second elder brother and second sister-in-law took all the children to the Northwest. Except for me, only the younger sister was left. She found a soldier, and her husband’s family The family background is not good, but the salary of the couple is high. Half of my brother-in-law’s salary is handed over to her husband’s family. She works in the military hospital to cover expenses. My mother subsidizes a small yard, which saves trouble. I, you have seen it, Brother Hezheng is just Jiaojiao and has no burden. My Jiaojiao doesn’t want any subsidies from us, we all prepare secretly first. Hehe, you don’t know how fun this kid is. He frowns when he buys something, and says solemnly, Mom , I have it, I have it, you have to save it, you have to keep a low profile, don’t buy big ones.”

Cheng Hongli looked at her enviously, You are really blessed. You don't need to worry about your mother's family, and your husband's family will be ashamed to see you if they mess up this time. Besides, brother Zheng is here. The daughter is sensible, and the son-in-law is excellent. It's really amazing. I want to bite you.

Lin Lishan gave her a blank look, You are not enviable, your old Zhao treats you so well, your two sons are grown up, you have Yuanyuan's pistachio, and you have a successful career, so you are not satisfied yet.

Cheng Hongli laughed loudly after hearing this, It's also a blessing. We are all blessed, but I am also worried. Don't worry about my daughter-in-law, just look under my nose. Just seeing your Jiaojiao reminds me of my girl, that heartless , I need to find someone in the future. How about you? Jiaojiao and Xiaowu grew up as childhood sweethearts. Your Jiaojiao is also very good, and Xiaowu is not a fool. I don’t know if my girl will find someone in the future. What's the use, I looked around and there is no suitable one. The child is suitable for the in-law's family, but the in-law's family is suitable for the child to protect his wife. You said that our meeting is simple, and the right person does not need parents to worry about. The soldiers are solid. I want to give Let her introduce the soldiers, remembering that being a military wife is not easy or not.

Fate is destined, don't worry about a child as good as Yuanyuan, the child is still young, you should keep an eye on it. There will always be someone with insight, so don't get married and have children so early.

Cheng Hongli looked outside, and they were almost there, It makes sense, just wait for fate. It is convenient to have a car, and you will arrive in a short time, and there will be no cold wind.

Don't worry, I'll buy some steamed buns and steamed buns at the restaurant first, and bring them back to the girls. Lin Lishan stopped the car at the entrance of the restaurant after speaking.

I got out of the car and went into the restaurant with food stamps. I could smell the smell of steamed stuffed buns from a distance. When I entered the gate, I saw a girl sitting in front of the counter. Seeing her come in, I looked at her curiously and stroked her hair. Comrade, what do you want to buy?

Lin Lishan looked at her amusedly, probably the sister Wang Linzhi Jiaojiao mentioned, Do you have buns and steamed buns?

Yes, just out of the cage, you can smell the aroma, there are sauerkraut and meat stuffing, and the steamed buns are just right. How much do you want?

Lin Lishan took out food stamps and money, Twenty meat buns and twenty steamed buns, how much do you want?

Meat buns cost 0.15 yuan, steamed buns cost 0.07 yuan, and bring two taels of food stamps. Food stamps from other provinces are not acceptable, only national and provincial food stamps.

Lin Lishan counted out the food stamps and money and handed them to her after hearing her finish. The girl swiftly collected the money and counted the bills, shouting, Master, 20 meat buns, 20 steamed buns.

After waiting for a while, Lin Lishan hurried into the car with the steaming steamed buns in hand, You carry it first, wrap it in varnish paper, you can't eat it in the back, I'll drive, if you're hungry, you can do it later. eat.

Cheng Hongli carried two bags full, Why did you buy so much? We're going to the restaurant later. This steamed bun is bigger than your face, can you eat it?

Haha... I didn't expect the steamed buns here to be so big. I ordered them all. Do you think that the buns and steamed buns in Northeast China are so big and full of ingredients. Last time I went back to the restaurant, I ordered a bowl of braised pork, and the plate was full It's all meat.

Both of them laughed, the car stopped at the gate of the yard, and when they heard the sound of the car, Zhou Xiaozheng and Zhao Dashan came out together, and when they saw them both laughed, Cheng Hongli was holding a bag full of them, and Lin Lishan hugged her. She was covered by a thick quilt so that she couldn't see her face.
