Chapter 92 Like a Different Person



Du Jiaming didn't know how something went wrong here, but he remembered that Qiao Wenwan and Professor Wu's daughter later became good friends, and her academic success was also thanks to that woman.

I think the two of them have similar personalities, so it wouldn't be difficult for them to get along now.

If Qiao Wenwan knew what Du Jiaming was thinking, she would definitely tell him that it was difficult, very difficult.

Originally, she also wanted to continue to win over Professor Wu and others, especially when she knew that the person who opened the door that day was Professor Wu's daughter, Qiao Wenwan regretted it so much.

Who knew Professor Wu's daughter would dress like that?

After she saw Wu Xiaoyu and Jiang Wanwan appear in the back mountain, she also went to the back mountain to wait, hoping to find an opportunity to make friends with Professor Wu's daughter.

Who knew that the woman was even more hateful than Jiang Wanwan. No matter how she explained, she wouldn't buy it and turned a blind eye to her kindness.

It must be that little bitch Jiang Wanwan who said bad things about herself in front of her, which made her so wary of herself.

But at this moment, Qiao Wenwan also noticed Du Jiaming's displeasure, and she didn't dare to say anything more about Professor Wu and his daughter.

For some reason, ever since Du Jiaming fell seriously ill, he has seemed like a different person.

He became much calmer. At first she thought he was sick and had no energy, but now she felt that he was becoming more and more calm.

Especially those eyes, which seemed to be able to see through everything, and there were many things she couldn't understand.

He was good to her, but he would not allow her to disobey him.

She nodded obediently, "I understand. I won't have any opinion about them, and I will help them like I did Wanwan."

After getting the answer he wanted, Du Jiaming nodded in satisfaction, "I knew you were the most sensible."

After all, she is still young and doesn't have his ability to predict the future. There are always some things that she can't imagine. She just needs him to remind her more often.

"Go ask the doctor. I think I'm fine now. See if I can be discharged tomorrow."

Du Jiaming suddenly wanted to return to the Red Star Brigade as soon as possible.

Qiao Wenwan finally waited for him to say this. God knows, the doctor said the next day after he woke up that he could be taken home to recuperate slowly, but Du Jiaming always felt unwell and asked to stay in the clinic for a few more days.

Is this a matter of staying a few more days? One more day's stay is one day's fee.

Qiao Wenwan responded readily and almost ran to find a doctor.

………………

After paying the public grain tax, the remaining grain will be distributed among the members.

This is a happier time than the Chinese New Year. After breakfast, Jiang Wanwan took Lu Xiao to the brigade headquarters.

Mother Lu had said long ago that when the team distributes things in the future, they can directly take their share.

Jiang Wanwan was quite grateful to Lu's mother for this. Nowadays, it was rare for families to separate and live alone. Even a new daughter-in-law would not dare to separate the family because it would affect her reputation.

Lu Xiao's mother did not explicitly say that the family was to be divided, but she let them receive their own food. It can be said that she both preserved her reputation and gave them reality.

On the surface, there was no separation, but what was the reality? Everything that was distributed in the team was collected separately, and each of them lived in their own yard. It was no different from a separate family.

Jiang Wanwan hummed a little tune and calculated the size of her small warehouse.

This time, not only corn will be distributed, but also the remaining seed grain, feed grain, soybeans and sorghum harvested during normal times, and other items that are not included in the grain distribution will be distributed to each household according to the grain distribution ratio of the previous year.

It can be said that compared with the distribution of summer grain, the distribution of autumn grain is what the members are looking forward to most.

The corn yield was originally high, and hybrid corn cultivation has been promoted, so the brigade does not need to keep any seed grain. After paying enough to the government and keeping some emergency food, almost all the rest can be distributed.

Food distribution is generally based on 73% or 82%. In order to motivate people's enthusiasm for work, the Red Star Brigade has always used a 73% ratio, that is, 70% for population and 30% for work points.

Jiang Wanwan heard from Lu Xiao that in the early 1960s, grain was distributed according to the 3:7 plan, that is, 3 parts were distributed based on population and 7 parts were distributed based on work points, which was also to promote more work, more pay.

However, this means that households with more work points will have more food, while households with more children will have less food.

At that time, there were several children in Lu Xiao's family. Lu's mother had never done much farm work before, and Lu's father was a typical bookish man, so the family became a food-scarce family.

Not only that, this problem also arises in families with many children. It is already difficult for a family with many children to earn little, and this problem becomes even more difficult.

Fortunately, the government quickly discovered this problem and reversed the original 3:7 ratio, with 7 parts distributed based on population and 3 parts distributed based on work points. In this way, households with many children would receive more food rations, and although the food rations distributed based on work points were less, the food rations for adults at different levels were more.

In their Red Star Brigade, generally strong male laborers eat first-class grain, with an annual ration of 600 kilograms, and female laborers eat second-class grain, with an annual ration of 500 kilograms. Children are divided into third, fourth, fifth, etc., generally with 420 kilograms and 300 kilograms, and those under two years old eat 180 kilograms per year.

After distributing the population rations, what remains is the work-point rations.

For example, if the brigade still has 7,000 kilograms of grain left after paying the public grain, then 7,000 kilograms of grain will be distributed to each family according to the number of family members. This is why we say "generally" when talking about population grain. This number is not fixed and depends on the brigade's harvest.

The remaining 3,000 kilograms of grain will be distributed according to work points, which is work point grain.

Neither population rations nor work-point rations were distributed for free. They needed to be calculated based on the price of grain to determine the amount each household should pay for food rations. Then, the amount of work points each household received was deducted from the amount of food rations they should pay. If there was more, the production team would give money, and if there was not enough, the household would need to pay money to the production team.
