Meng Si Ning was delighted: "Really?"
Grandma Chen at the other window said, "Remember to come early."
"well."
Meng Sining watched Lin Siyun pay skillfully.
A serving of corn porridge costs one cent, a steamed bun made of two-grain flour costs three cents, and a steamed bun made of white flour costs five cents.
A vegetarian dish cost three cents, and I was given a two-cent food coupon.
Their dinner only costs 1.1 cents, which is not much, but it adds up overall.
Siyun's lunch cost about fifty cents plus three ounces of food coupons.
Meng Si Ning calculated in her mind that the food expenses for the two of them would be more than twenty yuan a month.
It’s not worth it to spend half of my salary. I have to buy a cookbook and learn how to cook.
She is no longer Meng Si Ning from the 21st century, who can afford to hire a part-time worker as she feeds the whole family with one meal.
Even though I have money, the system doesn't provide home-cooked meals.
In this era, if you want to eat well, you have to rely on yourself.
Moreover, the lunch boxes they used were ordinary aluminum lunch boxes without handles, which made it easy to get burned.
Alas, did the original owner really not notice this?
Fortunately, nothing happened. What if the child was scalded?
I was thinking of buying a lunch box with a handle from the system later.
On the way, he suggested, "Little brother, let's learn to cook at home from now on. How about I make you a recipe someday? Well... Of course, I will learn it too."
Lin Siyun glanced at her sideways and nodded.
Tsk, this little brother is too quiet.
...
Jiang family.
When Liu Xiulan came home from get off work and saw the canned snacks on the living room table, she asked in surprise, "Who's home?"
"Wife, this is what Old Xia brought to nourish the third son."
Liu Xiulan was surprised: "Huh, only Old Xia can get along with this Xia family.
Just accept what he gave it to you. What do we need from them?"
"Of course it's not bad. My brain really needs some help. Mom, open the can and eat it."
Liu Xiulan didn't say anything, which was considered as her agreement.
She has three children, a son and two daughters. The most difficult time was when the children were teenagers a few years ago.
My son can eat a lot, and my daughters are also very particular about it.
The harvest was poor at that time, and her and Lao Jiang's wages were barely enough for the family to eat and drink. If the children fell ill, their family would have to live in poverty for half a month, and it was not certain that they would recover.
At that time, the two elders were still alive and would send home five dollars of filial piety money every month.
So the children never had good food when they were young.
It’s different now. The children are grown up and have jobs, but they are not married yet.
There is no burden, and she tries her best to satisfy her needs as long as she can eat something good.
At dinner, Jiangtang divided the can among the family. The yellow peach one had a classic and delicious taste.
Liu Xiulan said, "I'll send that bucket of malted milk to your second uncle's house tomorrow. Your second aunt has been helping you a lot with your work."
"I know, Mom. By the way, I got my diploma today. Dad, our school has a reserve quota for going to the countryside. I think it's to assist the brigade in production. Do you know about it?"
"Well, we've been sending people there in the last few days. They're reserve cadres, helping farmers with production and construction. Are you interested?"
Jiang Tang was surprised. Isn't this just like the village officials of later generations? "I've signed up and I have an interview next week."
Jiang Mo said, "Have you signed up? Are you going to the garment factory yet? I've already asked for you twice. They've been busy all day, and if you don't go, I won't be able to interact with them anymore."
"Sister, I'm not just preparing for both scenarios. Listen to what Dad said. There are so many people here, they don't need many reserve cadres."
Liu Xiulan disagreed, "What reserve cadre? They're just going to work in the countryside. With your intermittent nature, can you endure it? If you come back crying, you'll bring shame to me and your father."
If your sister's job at the garment factory is safe, go and work there obediently."
Jiang Guangtao was very supportive of his daughter: "Third child, you listen to Dad. Dad thinks this reserve cadre is pretty good. He can be considered as an official. If he stays there for three years and achieves some results, he will be able to gain a foothold in the county.
However, you newly graduated students are just a bridle this time, and you may not be selected, but some people can't see the situation clearly, and few of our team have signed up."
Village official, haha, now I have the opportunity, it would be nice to experience the feeling of being a village official.
Moreover, she has a sign-in system, and it takes time to complete tasks from time to time.
Working in a factory is too restrictive and she doesn't like it.
"Dad, if we're chosen, will we be separated by a long distance?"
"It shouldn't be. You are the first batch, and the province has also taken it into consideration. It should be in the commune near the city."
"Will I have to work in the fields like a real farmer?"
Jiang Guangtao said, "Of course you have to do it, otherwise what's the point of having you go there? Of course, you have privileges with your status. You have to lead everyone, encourage everyone, promote development, and achieve high productivity. I don't want you to just goof around. If you want to goof around, Dad suggests you don't cause trouble."
"Of course not, Dad, you have to believe that the offspring you gave birth to can't be that bad, right?
Although I'm not as gentle as the girl next door and not as pleasing to others, it doesn't mean I'm bad in other aspects.
Your daughter is also very good in school, so she will certainly be able to do well in society."
"When did you become so eloquent in your words? Only your dad can be fooled by you." The person who knows her best in the family is her mother.
She doesn't know what her daughter is like yet. She has always said what she wants since she was a child, but she has never seen her accomplish much.
