Idle Chats in the 60s

Jiang Mengxue dreamed that she would return to several decades ago. She decisively sold all her property and filled the warehouse space of the bracelet left by her grandmother.

When Gu Qingbe...

Chapter 442: Food Delivery

Jiang Mengxue was feeding Mobao in the room, so there were only the two of them in the room.

Zhao Fengqiao stepped forward and stuffed the money into Jiang Mengxue's hand, saying embarrassedly.

"Xiaoxue, I don't know if this is enough. I also know that the lamb's illness will cost a lot of money. You decide how much you need. I'll bring it to you when your brother Daqing comes to deliver food in a couple of days."

Jiang Mengxue looked at the stack of loose money in her hand and knew that it was collected from her family.

She has already made plans for the follow-up treatment of Xiaoyang's illness.

The Chinese herbal medicine used is not expensive, and the Western medicine is what she has in her space.

With the use of the healing spiritual spring, I believe the lamb's illness can be cured in no time.

Anyway, no one knows how serious his condition is, so when the time comes, they will say that the child recovers quickly and no one will doubt it. They will be so happy that they can't contain themselves.

So Jiang Mengxue didn't want to charge much money. She just helped others to the best of her ability and considered it a good deed.

Since she can travel through time and be reborn, maybe she knows something about her past and present lives. It would be good for her to do more good deeds for herself and her family.

Jiang Mengxue took out ten yuan and stuffed the rest back.

"Aunt, why not give me so many? Most of the medicine for the lamb is collected from the mountain behind us. The remaining part is not expensive. This is enough for now.

There's no need to worry about food. It's not easy to come here from such a long distance.

I don't think the lamb's condition is serious. I think it will be well before next spring planting. We'll see then."

From that day on, Jiang Mengxue had one more thing to do.

I take the lamb to the clinic every day, and teach him some simple medical knowledge when I have free time.

It’s just that the lamb can’t read, so no matter what he learns, he can only memorize it by rote.

But this is not a problem, the water he drinks now is spiritual spring water.

Both physical and brain development will be much better than before, so learning will naturally be much easier.

It's not difficult and it will be much easier once you learn pinyin.

Mark the pinyin of words you don’t know, and you can remember them by looking at them more often when you have free time.

The lamb has never been to school.

No matter what, you have to learn it from scratch.

I was worried that I didn't have the patience, so I brought back several nephews and nieces from my mother's side to spend a few days.

I am also worried that if Xiaoyang doesn't have children of the same age to play with all day, it will have a great impact on his personality.

So except for Wanwan who was too young to come, the others were all called.

Jiang's mother and several sisters-in-law packed their rations and left with them.

Children nowadays are not that precious. They will not hesitate even if it is a few dozen miles, let alone ten or twenty miles.

Play along the way and rest when you get tired.

So Jiang Mengxue welcomed her nephews and nieces at the doorstep in the morning.

Yu Kun, Yu Wen and Yu Wu from the eldest brother’s family.

Pingping, Anan, and Yuheng from my second brother’s family.

Yuchen from the third brother’s family.

There were quite a lot of children, but Li Cuiying and Gu Zhenjiang were very happy when they saw them.

At their age, all they want is to enjoy the company of their grandchildren.

Mobao is still young, so I have to be careful when taking care of him every day, for fear that he might catch a cold or get sick.

But for these older children, there is no need to worry so much, just have fun.

Jiang Mengxue forced a group of children to study at home every day, and asked them to take turns teaching the lamb to recognize words.

After they arrived and learned that they had to write every day, they felt a little regretful about coming. It would be better for them to stay at home and go out and play whenever they wanted.

But since my aunt makes delicious food every day, I’ll just study.

Since they were cousins, they had no reservations when playing and soon became friends.

This made Jiang Mengxue feel much more relaxed. She was not very good at taking care of children, and now she could completely relax.

During this period, Gu Qingbei distributed hundreds of thousands of tons of grain in many cities in Gansu, Anhui and other provinces.

The situation in recent years has been very grim.

It may not be so obvious in the Northeast yet, but many other places have already suffered from food shortages.

In some particularly difficult areas, people have even starved to death.

None of them wanted the situation described in history books where two-thirds of the people in a city died to happen again.

Since the second half of last year, coarse grains have been grown in the space.

Neither sweet potatoes, potatoes, corn nor sorghum were grown, not even a bit of rice or wheat.

Anyway, we can’t finish eating all the food in the space, and the food we take out can’t all be fine grains.

Everyone needs to fill their stomachs, so they are reluctant to eat fine grains.

The amount of coarse grains supplied will be increased, and the news will also be released to local government agencies.

We will never give anyone the opportunity to eat so much food alone.

The government has also been looking for the person who released the grain, but in this era without surveillance, how could Gu Qingbei be found?

Even the missions they carried out were done secretly, and it had nothing to do with them on the surface.

This matter has become a big deal among the higher-ups, but there is nothing they can do as they cannot find anyone.

However, this is a variable for the country at this time, and it is a good variable.

As long as it is beneficial to the country, they don't need to worry too much.

Gu Qingbei also left a letter, which only said that he was a good person and did good things.

He hopes the country will not investigate this matter so that he will continue to donate food in the future.

But if things get too serious and he can't show up, the food issue will have to end there.

He didn't know if the people above would listen, but he really hoped that things wouldn't get out of hand. Otherwise, for his own safety, he would have to stop.

Ever since she learned that Gu Qingbei had done this, Jiang Mengxue has been paying close attention to the information in the newspaper.

I just want to know whether the country will expose this matter.

But apparently not, as there was no such news in the newspapers for several months.

There was a table full of newspapers in front of Jiang Mengxue, all of which she had subscribed to in the past few months.

I read it again from beginning to end, and there was indeed no relevant information at all.

However, there are a few pieces of information that may be relevant.

The country began to transfer grain from all over the country to cities that were short of food.

There is not much specific information, but many cities that could not even buy a month's worth of basic food rations before are now able to supply food.

Subsidized grain has also been adjusted in rural areas in an effort to ensure everyone has a good New Year before the New Year.

As for the situation next year, it all depends on whether God will bless us. What the people say is useless.

It was not until the tenth day of the lunar calendar before the New Year that Jiang Mengxue planned to send the lamb home.

His condition has now recovered halfway, but the Chinese New Year is coming soon, so he can go home and celebrate the New Year before coming back.

The lamb hasn't seen his parents and grandparents for several months. Although he doesn't show it normally, it's natural for a child to miss home.

No matter how good your life is outside, you still want to find your mother before going to bed at night. It’s always like this, no matter how old you are.
