Gu Zhenjiang came to the city not only for the latest situation in the city.
He and Li Cuiying also had to buy food for this month.
Because her son and daughter-in-law have returned, Wang Daya is very concerned about things happening in the city.
Her son, daughter and whole family live in the city.
If anything happened, she would be worried to death.
Fortunately, the information that Gu Zhenjiang found out from people in the city today was not much different from what An Xin said.
Anyway, things are stable now, but who knows how things will be arranged in the future.
Wang Daya was still worried about the couple taking the bus back alone.
It was about to snow, and many families in the team had to go into the city to buy things.
Some people are going to get married before the end of this year and want to go to the city to buy some things for their wedding.
Some people also came to Jiang Mengxue to exchange some bills.
Everyone in the team knew that Jiang Mengxue's husband and parents-in-law were all in the army, so the family had no shortage of military supply tickets.
The military supply tickets are much more useful than the tickets issued locally.
You may not be able to buy food even if you go to a grain station with your local food coupons.
But you can definitely buy it with military food coupons.
Soldiers defend their country on the front line, and their lives are hanging by a thread on the battlefield.
Everyone knows that the troops cannot be lost if supplies from any source are missing.
The common people were eager to send all the good things to the army.
No one wants to go through that again.
Jiang Mengxue is not stingy in this regard.
The people in the team are more or less related.
And they get along pretty well, and she has no shortage of bills.
She also planned to go to the city while everyone was shopping.
Leave some more things this time, because you may not be able to go before the New Year.
In the middle of winter, the snow on the road outside is thigh-high.
She is not in great need of money, so there is no need for her to suffer that.
The weather was quite cold, so Jiang Mengxue wrapped herself up like a dumpling.
Scarves, hats, masks and gloves are all available.
But the hand holding the faucet was still frozen stiff.
Go to the commune and take a bus all the way to the city.
The days are short now, and I definitely can’t make it back in one day.
So Jiang Mengxue planned to get back to the county before dark this afternoon, stay there for one night, and go back after finishing her business in the county tomorrow.
Hide the prepared things in the suburbs and cover them tightly with a large stone.
At least two or three people would not be able to push it open.
She was also worried about what would happen if those who had fled the famine tried to catch game in the wild woods and accidentally discovered it?
It’s safer this way.
After entering the city, Jiang Mengxue did not rush to the black market to find the two brothers of the Guan family.
Instead, he went to find Gu Huaiju first.
I brought her two pheasants that Dahei had caught.
Gu Huaijue was also surprised that Jiang Mengxue came.
It's been a while since she came. I originally wanted to ask her in advance after renting out the house, but she never showed up.
"Why are you here today? The weather is getting bad, I hope it doesn't snow tonight."
"There's not much to do in the team lately, so I came here to buy some things. Otherwise, if it snows, I really won't be able to go out."
Gu Huaiju poured a cup of hot water and handed it to Jiang Mengxue.
"Hurry up and drink something to warm you up. I was thinking about when I could tell you when I get back, and it just so happens that you're here."
Jiang Mengxue was puzzled. What could happen?
But thinking about it, Gu Huaiju was probably busy with house matters recently.
"Your house has been rented out, and I've found out more about the family. There are many children in the family, and three brothers are married and living together.
I have two daughters and a son who are not married yet.
Although they were allocated three houses, they still couldn't afford to have so many children.
Now the three older boys are all married, and there is no room for them at home. They can’t get a house for the time being, so they just want to rent one or two rooms to live in.
But don't worry, I know this family too. They are all honest people, and the brothers in the family get along well with each other.
Now the three brothers live there with their wives.
The rent for them is three dollars per family, and nine dollars per month for them together.
There weren't so many originally, but because your house was renovated and there are several more rooms, their family can get two rooms, so they are still willing.
But they just got married and don’t have much money, so they pay the rent every month when they get their salary.”
As he said that, Gu Huaijue stood up and took out a handkerchief bag from his desk drawer.
Inside is the rent for the past two months, a total of eighteen dollars.
Jiang Mengxue was very satisfied, this was already a lot.
She took it without hesitation.
This matter was accomplished thanks to Gu Huaijue's help.
And from now on, she will have to help collect the rent every month.
Jiang Mengxue was very grateful, but she couldn't use money.
Gu Huaijue is Gu Qingbei's cousin, and they have a good relationship. It is not an exaggeration to say that they are siblings.
If Jiang Mengxue really gave money, Gu Huaijue might even be angry.
It just so happened that she brought two pheasants this time. Just don't forget her if you come across anything good in the future.
Gu Huaijue wanted to invite Jiang Mengxue to his home for dinner.
But Jiang Mengxue didn't have the time, so she refused.
Gu Huaijue had no choice. He knew that it was too far to return to the Leaping Team from the city, and he didn't want to waste Jiang Mengxue's time.
"Then wait for me in the office for a while. I'll go back and get some things and you can take them back to my parents. I probably won't have time to go back in the next two months."
This was not a big deal, so Jiang Mengxue naturally agreed.
