Chapter 372
"I think 5,000 is too much to buy New Year pictures. My eldest uncle's daughter-in-law's sister-in-law's younger brother works as an accountant in the forest farm.
He went home and said that the pigsty drove a tractor to deliver goods to various factories every few days.
Eggs, live chickens, rabbits, big fat pigs, green leaves and mushrooms.
They start selling vegetables in November and can sell them until June of the following year, and they still sell them at such a high price.
We also sell watermelons and cantaloupes in the summer.
This year's grain harvest is also very good, haven't you heard? This is all money! Even for making matchboxes!
Every family in the countryside has six or seven people, and they work from dawn to dusk, since they have nothing to do during the winter anyway.
If you work well, you can earn at least 15 or 16 yuan a month.
Think about it, how much money you guys made this year? I'm so envious, who wouldn't be jealous?"
The man was so envious that he clicked his tongue. Everyone in the commune envied him.
The key point is that I heard that people are free to eat meat.
Others also transformed into lemon trees!
There were especially many members from other brigades standing by the firecracker stall, their eyes red with envy.
I no longer feel like going to the market.
A man wearing a dog-skin hat and covered in patches spat fiercely:
"Mad, no more wandering.
It's really infuriating. I bought a few candies for my child and he had to think about it for a long time, staring at it for a long time to see which one was bigger.
A little girl spends so much money just on firecrackers. That's what it means to live a good life.
What do we call this?
No, I have to go back to the brigade and find the brigade leader, and he must come up with a set of rules.
Next year, will we be working in greenhouses or on farms? We can’t just sit there and watch others eat meat while we can’t even have a sip of soup, right?”
If that were the case, he would make a fuss until the cadres were re-elected.
If you offend someone, just offend them. It's their fault. If they are useless, they shouldn't occupy the position.
It's only been a little over a year since they built their pigpen, and they've already become so rich.
They also have one nose and two eyes, and they don't have any less than others.
Why can others do it but they can’t?
Many people at the market gathered in groups of three or four, chatting and then headed home without stopping after buying anything.
Unlike before, I would never go back until the ox cart returned.
Chen Qingyi and the others don’t know anything yet!
They were buying New Year pictures, and Chen Qingyi picked out one of a carp jumping over the dragon gate:
"Third brother, Chu Xun, let's put this up in your room.
The meaning is good. I will get another one of the same kind and put it up in my second brother’s dormitory on the first day of the new year.”
Since Chen Qingbai couldn't come back for the New Year, they decided to go to the city to celebrate the first day of the new year.
There is no holiday during the Spring Festival now. The so-called revolutionary Spring Festival simply means to focus on revolution and promote production.
I didn't go home during the Spring Festival, but actively participated in production labor.
There was a saying at that time: Don’t stop the fight on the 30th, and continue on the 1st.
Even the New Year greetings are not "Congratulations on your prosperity" or "All the best" or something like that, they are all blessings to see the boss next year!
In short, there are many things that make Chen Qingyi feel very exploded.
"Okay, pick one for Mom too." Chen Qingfeng pointed, "Do you guys like that one?"
"Okay!" Old Mrs. Chen nodded. "This is more than enough for every team. It looks festive. Grandma, buy two too. I'll put them up in my room and your third uncle's room."
She spent a long time choosing the two that she was most satisfied with.
He even showed off, "How about these two? Aren't they good looking?"
Several people nodded in unison. If you looked closely, you could see the corners of their mouths twitching. It seemed that Old Lady Chen was waiting for praise.
Chen Qingyi winked at Chu Xun, who coughed and said, "It's really beautiful!"
Mrs. Chen: …? ?
That’s it?
Chu Heng and Chen Qingfeng lowered their heads and remained silent.
Chen Qingyi bravely said, "Grandma, this is so festive. This red carp is so big. I'm sure you will have great luck next year."
This little kid is also fat, this fat kid has a big face and big thick legs.
Really...it's quite rare!
The other one is also good, with golden wheat waves below. Next year's harvest will definitely be even better than this year's.
And there is this big rooster, piglet, and lamb in his arms, not bad, not bad!
"You have good taste!"
The flattery was too much, and Old Lady Chen clapped her hands in joy, "Grandma will choose one for you too."
Chen Qingyi:……!!
Oh no, don't choose a fat kid for her!
Perhaps Old Lady Chen heard her thoughts and after much searching, she picked out a picture of a female soldier shooting for her.
Chen Qingyi breathed a sigh of relief. Not bad...
Chu Xun's face was full of smiles, how could he be so precious!
Finally, she bought a few candied haws, one for each person. Old Mrs. Chen also bought Qingzhi a few second-hand picture books.
When they were going back, there were many empty spaces on the tractor, so Old Mrs. Chen squeezed in.
Old Mrs. Zhao, Zhao Xiangmei, and Aunt Chunmiao were also in the car, with Aunt Yun and Aunt Wu sitting next to them.
When Zhao Xiangmei saw that they bought so many firecrackers, she didn't say anything.
There was no doubt that the one who was spending so much money was her daughter. Old Mrs. Zhao was so distressed that she beat her chest and stamped her feet.
After converting the fingers into pork, my eyes widened.
The others also smacked their lips, but no one knew what they were thinking, and they didn't say a word.
The person's mother didn't object, and the grandmother even added some money.
People like to spoil their children!
They were not the type to be annoying if they didn't talk too much. Wu Fenfang even said, "Just let us know when your family releases the fireworks.
We also had the opportunity to look at these firework sticks. We had never seen these things before.
If you have money, you can buy anything!"
The others nodded, thinking about watching it later. Zhao Xiangmei smiled and said, "Then let's set it off on New Year's Eve.
Before the New Year's Eve dumplings, at eight o'clock, put them in the threshing ground."
The tractor started moving only when almost everyone was there. Chen Qingyi and the others followed on bicycles.
Everything is put in the car.
When I went back, I took a detour and ended up at the entrance of the Commune’s Second Department Store.
Accountant Qian instructed:
"In half an hour, if you want to buy anything, go buy it quickly. If the brigade supply and marketing cooperative has some, go back and buy it. You don't have to take the things with you. I'll watch over them in the car."
Before he could finish his words, a group of people jumped off the tractor and rushed into the Second Department Store!
Old Mrs. Chen was not willing to be outdone and rushed to the front.
He just dug his butt and pushed the old lady who was dawdling at the counter aside.
The old lady was about to start cursing when she looked up and saw that it was Old Lady Chen. She immediately lowered her head and walked out.
Old Mrs. Chen didn't see the face.
He proudly leaned on the counter and shouted, "Comrade, give me five packs of this Seagull shampoo."
While the salesperson was getting the goods for her, she said to Wu Fenfang next to her:
"We used to wash our hair with alkaline powder, but one time Xiaoyi gave me two bags of this shampoo.
Ouch, that works great, my hair feels so smooth after washing it!"
Under the strong recommendation of Old Lady Chen, Wu Fenfang also bought two bags. Each bag only contained 25 grams and could not be used many times.
Old Mrs. Chen bought a few more bags of tooth powder.
A bottle of vanishing cream.
The old ladies in the team started to grumble and complain again, saying that they are quite old but still conceited!
Looking again, his face was quite white.
Thinking that they had money this year, they gritted their teeth and hardened their hearts to buy a bottle of Friendship each.
Next, Old Mrs. Chen bought a pack of ox tongue biscuits, two packs of trough cakes, and a pack of peach cakes.
The old ladies in the pigpen:……!!
Old Mrs. Chen: "My old man told me that the trough cakes at the brigade supply and marketing cooperative are all sold out."
Mrs. Chen's
Mrs. Chen's
