Starting from the Year 1960

Li Xu traveled to the year 1960. In this era, which he had never seen before and only heard about in books and from elders, the only thing he could do was ensure his family had enough to eat and li...

Chapter 78: Gaining Knowledge

It’s no wonder that Li Ping couldn’t believe it.

Although Li Xu brought back a lot of fine grains during this period, it was only a few kilograms each time.

I've never taken such a large amount at once.

What's more, he said that he wanted to give these fine grains to Mr. Li and others.

This is a bit too much.

To be realistic, their family probably doesn't even eat that much refined grain in a month...

Sun Xiu had no choice but to tell Li Xu what he had discussed with him.

Everyone finally understood.

Li Mei thought about it and said excitedly, "Mom, then our family can eat a lot of fine grains this month, right?"

Sun Xiu rolled her eyes at her and said unhappily, "We have enough fine grains at home."

Li Mei smiled ingratiatingly, "Mom, I'm thinking of you too. You're so tired from work, eating more refined grains is good for your health."

Obviously, Li Mei knew who was the boss in the family.

When Sun Xiu heard her eldest daughter say this, she also smiled and said, "Okay, stop flattering me. Guilan, give me two bags of food during the day."

Then he explained the weight and requirements of the two bags of grain.

Hu Guilan also nodded in agreement.

At this time, a voice came from outside the kitchen, "What are you doing here so early in the morning?"

Everyone knew it was Li Xu's voice as soon as they heard it.

After everyone left the kitchen, they told the story again.

Li Xu didn't know whether to laugh or cry. "I brought it back last night. Besides, Mom knows about this."

Sun Xiu also spoke up, "Xiao Xu, I didn't expect you to take so much."

"Not much. Grandma's family has 25 kilograms, Grandpa's family has 10 kilograms, and the remaining 5 kilograms is for our family to eat."

Everyone looked at each other, feeling as if something was wrong.

At this time, Li Ping spoke up, "Isn't that what Grandpa got from his family?"

"Yes." Everyone suddenly realized and asked.

Li Xu was stunned and said hesitantly, "I said before that I would give Grandpa and his family an extra subsidy of 10 kilograms of coarse grain every month. Didn't you know about this?"

Everyone was stunned for a moment.

Then they all said, “I don’t know.”

Li Xu scratched his head. "Then I guess I forgot to tell you. It's okay. It's the same if I tell you now."

After everyone understood, they came forward to tease Li Xu.

Among them, Li Mei was the most impressed. "Oh, my brother is really amazing. These 40 kilograms of fine grains are nothing. When will I let my elder sister see some fun stuff?"

Li Xu knew that there was no jealousy involved.

It's just some fun among family members.

Li Xu also grinned, "Brother, today I will let you see what a good thing is."

After saying that, he took out an envelope from his pocket.

Not only Li Mei, but everyone else was curious, "Xiao Xu, what is this?"

Li Xu also laughed, "What a good thing! My elder sister wants to broaden her horizons."

Before Li Mei could speak, Li Chen snatched the envelope from Li Xu's hand.

After Li Xu reacted, he thought that this kid was seeking revenge for last night.

Then she sneered, "Be careful, if anything goes wrong with the things in here, Mom will break both of your legs."

Li Chen was not afraid at all when he heard Li Xu say that. He grinned and said, "Second brother, don't scare me here."

Then he opened the envelope directly and poured the contents downwards, and two things fell out.

Li Mei and Hu Guilan picked up one each.

Li Mei looked at the ticket in her hand and was shocked. "Watch ticket? Xiaoxu, how did you get it?"

When everyone heard this, they gathered around.

Li Jiakang spoke first, "Everyone, look at your tickets one by one, and be sure not to tear them."

After saying that, the first one took it.

When passing it to others to see, Li Jiakang rubbed his hands, and a hint of redness appeared on his face. "Son, Dad wants to discuss something with you. Do you think it's okay?"

Li Xu shook his head. "No, if Mom asks, I'll give her the ticket."

Li Jiakang didn't say anything, but Li Xu knew what he was going to say.

Think about how you were treated in front of him and how you were treated in front of Sun Xiu.

That's a world of difference.

Of course Li Xu chose the one that was better for him.

Sun Xiu was also relieved when she heard what Li Xu said, "Mom, don't worry. I'll give you some money later. Go buy a watch and keep it for yourself."

Then he glared at Li Jiakang again, "How dare you, as a father, open your mouth and ask for your son's things?"

Li Jiakang still argued, "It's the son's duty to honor his father with his things."

"No, if you want to show filial piety, you should show filial piety to my mother first."

Sun Xiu looked proud, "Did you hear that? This is my son, get out of here."

Li Jiakang glared at Li Xu angrily, "You little bastard."

Sun Xiu was also unhappy, "Can you curse my son again? I want to hear it."

Li Jiakang stopped immediately, looked at Li Xu angrily, and dared not say a word.

Li Xu was very happy in his heart. He knew very well that in this family, there was only one person who needed to be pleased.

By this time everyone had finished watching, and Li Ping handed the ticket to Li Xu again, "Keep it safe, don't lose it."

There was also a strong sense of envy in his words.

Everyone knew their limits and understood that this thing was rare, so no matter how envious they were, they didn't ask for it.

Well, except for Li Jiakang...

After Li Xu put it away, he looked at Li Mei proudly and said, "How is it? Have you learned something new?"

Li Mei nodded continuously, "I've learned a lot, I've learned a lot."

After that, he asked again, "By the way, what was that thing that sister-in-law picked up?"

Only then did everyone remember that there was something else.

Li Xu smiled and said, "You'll know if you open it and take a look."

Li Mei took the paper from Hu Guilan, unfolded it and took a look.

Then he looked at Li Xu in disbelief, "Brother, you got another work quota?"

"What?"

Sun Xiu also shouted, excitedly, "Son, you got it again?"

Li Xu nodded. "I went out last night to do this. Work at the plastics factory."

Sun Xiu excitedly kept repeating, "Okay, okay, my son is amazing."

Everyone also thought that Li Xu was amazing and started to praise him, especially Hu Guilan.

Li Xu blushed from the praise...

After everyone's excitement died down, Li Xu glanced at Li Chen with ill intent, "Mom, I almost tore this letter of introduction just now."

Sun Xiu said "Hmm?" and looked at Li Chen.

Li Chen's face turned pale instantly and he tried to run away immediately.

Sun Xiu shouted, "Stop! If you dare to run, try it."

Li Chen was so scared that he didn't dare to move.

Sun Xiu stepped forward and hit his butt a few times, then scolded him, "Luckily your thing is fine, otherwise your legs would be broken."
