Zhao Yong heard from his wife that she met a girl who provided food for the family.

He thought she was at least in her twenties, but he didn't expect her to look so young.

When guests came to my house, the front door was still broken, which was a bit inappropriate.

He put the child in his arms into his daughter-in-law's arms and said, "You two sit down and talk, I'll go fix the door."

Zhao Yong was anxious just now and kicked the door. Now that there were guests at home, he would feel insecure if the door was not closed.

Taking the tools, I went to the gate.

Holding the child, Guo Xiaofang asked, "Sister, you haven't eaten yet! I'll go cook, and you can eat here at noon."

There was not much food at home, and a family of blood-sucking leeches from her hometown often came to take advantage of the food. Fortunately, she had always been careful and hid the food. Otherwise, she would not have enough food to cook when she wanted to entertain guests.

Jiang Baige asked, "Aren't there any more food? How are you going to cook?"

Guo Xiaofang forced a smile and said, "Sister, to be honest, I just didn't want them to take it all, so I hid it."

Having said that, he went to the kitchen with the child in his arms.

Jiang Baige followed her in and saw that it was inconvenient for her to hold a child. "Let me hold the baby. Is she shy?"

Guo Xiaofang smiled and said, "I don't recognize you. Anyone can hold you."

Jiang Baige reached out to take the child, "Come, let auntie hold you."

The little baby smiled, revealing two small baby teeth, and reached out his hand with a chuckle.

It was the first time for Jiang Baige to hold such a little baby. It felt soft and small.

She was at a loss and dared not move.

She was afraid that she might accidentally drop the child.

Guo Xiaofang gave the child to Jiang Baige and put a stool aside by the wall.

Jiang Baige thought the seat was for her and said with a smile, "Thank you!"

Guo Xiaofang squatted down and picked up a floor tile with an iron hook.

Only then did Jiang Baige discover that there was a small cellar underneath.

It was pitch black and I had no idea how big it was.

She peeked inside and saw large and small bags of food, but it didn't look like there was much.

Guo Xiaofang smiled and said, "Sister, you can see that I bought these from you a few days ago. If they took them all, our family would really have no way to survive."

Jiang Baige pursed her lips and said, "Sister, do you still want food? I brought a lot more today. I'll give it all to you if you want it."

Guo Xiaofang paused and said, "Yes! Sister, I want as much as I want."

Zhao Yong repaired the door and closed it before coming in, so he could hear their conversation.

When Guo Xiaofang saw her husband come in, she hurriedly said, "Dad, you hold the child while I discuss something with my sister."

"oh!"

Zhao Yong wiped his hands with a towel on the wall and took his daughter from Jiang Baige's arms.

From what Jiang Baige heard from Sister Guo's tone, she should be able to make decisions in this family, and it is possible that her husband still listens to her.

If a family is headed by a woman, life will basically be good in the future.

Even in today's situation, he can still stand firmly on his wife's side. This Brother Zhao should be a person who can distinguish right from wrong.

His wife wanted to talk to someone, but Zhao Yong had no intention of asking, probing, or chatting with her.

This distance makes Jiang Baige feel very comfortable.

She likes this way of getting along, it's really good this way.

If a man is too controlling and asks too many questions, she may become alienated from them.

If you are not careful with a person like this, you might even sell her out.

Jiang Baige came to the living room. When she came in, she put the two pockets against the wall.

Guo Xiaofang also followed over, "Sister, what did you bring today?"

Jiang Baige picked up the bag and placed it next to the wooden sofa.

He took out the contents one by one and placed them on the sofa: a bag of 20 kilograms of rice, a bag of 5 kilograms of millet, and a bag of 10 kilograms of flour.

She was still saying, "Sister, there are infectious diseases out there right now, so you guys should be more worried. After I come here this time, the next time might be a month later."

Guo Xiaofang was stunned. "Sister, you know it too."

Jiang Baige nodded. "This is common all over the country. You'd better avoid contact with outsiders. You have a baby, so take care of your health."

"Thank you, sister. I understand."

Guo Xiaofang took a look at the two pockets and knew without a doubt that they were filled with food.

She wanted all this food, but there was not much money left at home. What should she do?

Zhao Yong also watched quietly while holding his child. If they were a little frugal, the food would be enough for their family of three to eat for half a year.

Jiang Baige continued to take out the food and asked again, "Sister, do you want some oil?"

"Is there any oil left?"

Guo Xiaofang asked: "Sister, do you have any oil left?"

"Yes, I have!"

Jiang Baige pulled out a five-jin bottle of rapeseed oil from his pocket. "This is rapeseed oil. The dishes cooked with it taste just as good as those cooked with lard."

Guo Xiaofang nodded, "Yes."

Looking at the things on the sofa, Guo Xiaofang estimated that it should cost more than a hundred yuan.

She only has two hundred yuan left in her life. If she spends it all, what will she do with the money in the future?

Zhao Yong asked, "Girl, do you still have that milk powder? My daughter loves it with rice."

Jiang Baige looked at the baby in his arms. The child was born in this era and was quite pitiful. He had nothing to eat and nothing to wear.

"Yes! I saved it specially for you."

She is so used to lying that she can tell a lie without blinking an eye.

As he spoke, he took out five more bags of milk powder. If this was used as an inducement to eat, it should be enough for the whole year.

He asked, "Is this enough? Do you want some sugar and salt?"

Jiang Baige actually didn't care about these things. Even if she wanted to give them to them, she could afford it. However, people are greedy and she didn't dare to take the risk.

Now she can sell it to them at a lower price, and they will thank her, which is great.

She sold it to them at a low price, just to make friends with them, so that if they wanted to know something in the future, they could ask them here.

Salt and sugar are not easy to buy, even if you have tickets.

Guo Xiaofang gritted her teeth and said, "Yes."

Jiang Baige took out three more bags of salt and a five-jin bag of sugar.

She took out so many things, but her pockets were still not empty.

In fact, half of them were temporarily taken out from the space by her, and the things in her pockets had not been touched. Now both pockets were still bulging.

Zhao Yong saw that she still had quite a lot of things in her pockets and asked, "Sister, do you have any food left? I want to introduce you to someone nearby, and his family also needs food."

This is business, Jiang Baige responded, "Sure! I still have a little here. If you can, then sell it together. It will make things easier for me."

"Why."

"Then wait, I'll go call someone over."

Zhao Yong took the child and left.
