The capital city.
"Teacher Xu, Teacher Xu, there's a package slip for you."
Hearing the postman's voice, Xu Hanshan came out of the house and took the letter and parcel slip.
A female teacher walked by and said enviously, "Teacher Xu, someone is sending you a package again."
How many packages have I received in this period of time?
Xu Hanshan glanced at the name and address on the package slip and knew that it was mailed to him by Gu Yunyang.
"Yes. These kids are so sentimental. I already told them not to mail it."
Xu Hanshan didn't say that it was Gu Yunyang who mailed it. These days, everyone is short of food, and if people knew that it was mailed by just one person, it would cause trouble for Gu Yunyang later.
As long as you know in your heart that it was mailed by Gu Yunyang, that's enough.
After exchanging a few pleasantries, Xu Hanshan took the parcel slip to the post office and picked up the parcel.
Unsurprisingly, it contained some local specialties and some grains.
Both whole grains and refined grains are available, in a 1:1 ratio.
Xu Hanshan had just returned when his wife came out. Seeing the package in his hand, her smile remained unchanged, even brighter.
"Old Xu, is someone mailing us another package?"
Xu Hanshan said with emotion, "It's that kid Gu Yunyang. That kid, he just went to the countryside himself, and he's still thinking about me. Look, he sent us grain again. There's also some cured meat and dried rabbit."
His wife accepted it with great surprise and said, "You know what, out of all the students you've taught, this is the only one with a conscience."
She paused for a moment, then added, "Recently, the rations in the capital have been reduced. Not to mention our family, your parents' side and my parents' side are also short of food."
I used to be able to eat my fill, but now I can only manage to eat until I'm about 70% full.
She complained, "I heard that our quota is going to be reduced even further. I wonder when this will end."
Xu Hanshan also sighed, "I wonder if this child has enough to eat. He's always thinking about me."
His wife nodded in agreement: "We'll send him some money and some cloth later. He's in the countryside, so it should be easier for him to get food. But he might not have much else. I'll go to my parents' house and ask them to get him some other ration coupons."
“Okay.” Xu Hanshan nodded. “Our family is indeed short of this grain. Since the child has such a kind intention, we will accept it. But we can’t just accept it without feeling at ease. You can collect more other coupons so we can make fewer clothes.”
...
Zhang Jianjun also received the package.
The reduction in quotas didn't have much impact on his family.
But there will definitely be a food shortage.
Neither he nor his sister had jobs and didn't earn money.
The grain that Gu Yunyang mailed made Zhang Jianjun feel guilty.
Back then, I spent money to buy university places and jobs.
This is a fair trade, and no one is taking advantage of anyone else.
If we have to say who benefited, he was the one who benefited.
Money is something many people in the capital have.
But jobs aren't so easy to find.
It's an office job, simple and easy, and the salary is high.
In one or two years, I can earn back all the money I spent on buying the job.
After that, it's pure profit.
Unexpectedly, Gu Yunyang even mailed him local specialties and grains.
When he got home, Zhang's father asked, "Was it still the grain that Gu Yunyang mailed to you?"
Zhang Jianjun nodded: "Yes, I never expected that. We used to be on good terms, but we were just ordinary friends. I never thought he would still remember me."
Zhang's mother asked suspiciously, "Could it be that she has some ulterior motive?"
Before Zhang's father could speak, Zhang Jianjun spoke first: "Mom, what are you saying?"
