Chapter 32 Food
After dinner, Li Yue did not stay in the dormitory.
After washing up, Ye Qian went to rest directly.
The next day at noon, Du Xiaoli heard about this and ran to him and scolded Gong Peng several times.
Yes, Du Xiaoli was out yesterday. "I only went out once this whole year to run an errand, and it just happened to be there. Otherwise, I would have scolded him yesterday."
Ye Qian was also very happy to hear Du Xiaoli's words. It felt good to have someone care about her. "It's okay. I didn't suffer any loss! We are not fools. How could we possibly believe what Gong Peng said?"
at the same time.
Gong Peng and Pan Huiyu are plotting how to avenge themselves.
Pan Huiyu: "Cousin, Ye Qian is too much. Look how badly she beat you. You can't just let her go this time."
Gong Peng said angrily, "You don't even need to tell me that. I've never suffered such a big loss in my life."
Pan Huiyu looked excited: "Yes, we can't let her go this time." At this time, Pan Huiyu had an idea, "Cousin, you should do this when the time comes..." As she said, she put the phone close to Gong Peng's ear.
Gong Peng said with a dark look on his face, "I'll go when I'm a little better. She won't have many good days left."
…
Ye Qian had no idea about the conspiracy between Pan Huiyu and Gong Peng at this time.
The union has been really busy lately, everyone has nothing to do and is just sitting together chatting.
Chen Xiaoling, "I don't know what to do with the current situation. Everyone is so panicked. Supplies were already tight, and lately, there's nothing to buy, even on the black market. If I don't buy some food, my family will be starving."
Jiang Xia: "Yeah, it's the same at my house. I can't buy it outside."
Wang Juan: "Indeed, supplies have been extremely scarce recently. My mother-in-law queued up at 4 a.m. and waited for hours, but still couldn't buy any food. We still have food at the factory, but it's hard for those at home."
Is food so scarce now?
Ye Qian wanted to make friends with the people in the office, so she said, "Do you want to buy some food? I have some connections here. I'll go ask how much you want to buy."
When others heard this, they didn't take it seriously, but Jiang Xia knew that the meat Ye Qian bought for her last time was really fatty.
I made soup with the bones for my son, and used the meat to make lard. A lot of lard was made, and we haven’t eaten up all the lard at home yet. The lard residue is used to stir-fry cabbage, and it is really delicious.
Now when I think about the taste of that day, I can’t help swallowing.
Seeing that no one took it seriously, Jiang Xia told them about the pork incident.
Everyone started to take it seriously. Since Ye Qian could buy pork, she must be able to buy grain. Pork was even more scarce than grain.
Jiang Xia ordered 50 kilograms of coarse grains and 5 kilograms of fatty meat.
When Wang Juan and Chen Xiaoling saw Jiang Xia express her request, they said to Ye Qian, "Do the same as Jiang Xia."
As the three of them were talking, Ye Qian took out some paper and took notes before saying to them, "I'll go this afternoon. Come to the office at 7:30 tomorrow morning. The meat can't be left there, so you need to take it back first. Everyone come early."
Look, how thoughtful Ye Qian is.
The three asked again: "What about the price?"
Ye Qian originally wanted to make friends, so why would she take advantage of this opportunity to make money from everyone? "Just follow the black market price."
After get off work in the afternoon, Ye Qian left the grain factory.
Since we are going to bring supplies to others, where will we get the supplies if we don’t go out?
It's just right to go to the state-owned restaurant for dinner, and then pack up some meat dishes to keep in the space and eat slowly.
The weather is gradually getting warmer now, and my son doesn’t get dark so early like he did in winter.
Ye Qian felt that she hadn't been shopping for a while, so she went to the supply and marketing cooperative for a while.
Since it's getting hot, I need to start preparing summer clothes. I don't have any yet (not to mention the original owner's).
The cloth coupons I had on me were exchanged with other tickets from others.
I walked to the cloth counter and bought 5 feet of blue floral cotton cloth and 5 feet of dark blue cotton cloth. I paid the money and the ticket and packed them up to take away.
I went directly to the tailor, who already knew me.
Ye Qian felt that she had not made many clothes, but the master said that this was not a lot. Others were lucky to have one new piece of clothing a year. It has only been a short time, and you have made so many pieces.
Ye Qian was speechless after hearing this. There was nothing she could do. She didn't want to wear the original owner's clothes, so she had to start from scratch.
Do it all year round, at least 2-3 pieces per season.
Well, it does seem to be not too few.
After the master told Ye Qian to pick up the clothes in three days, Ye Qian left.
Ye Qian returned to the grain factory, washed up and went to bed.
It's only 8 o'clock now. If it were in the future, I would never touch the pillow before the clock strikes.
How could I sleep so early? But what could I do if I didn’t sleep in the 1960s? There were no entertainment facilities.
Have a good night.
The next day, Ye Qian got up early. She had packed the food and meat last night. The meat was also wrapped in yellow paper, one portion per package, and she gave it directly to them.
She put it in her small backpack and went to the office. Ye Qian arrived at the office very early at 7:15, but other people arrived earlier than her.
The three of them were very excited to see Ye Qian. When they saw Ye Qian's backpack, they knew that she must have bought the things.
After Ye Qian came in, everyone gathered around.
Ye Qian distributed the food to the three of them, and they all had smiles on their faces. With this food, the people at home would no longer have to go hungry.
The three of them didn't expect that Ye Qian was so capable that she could get so much food at once.
After Ye Qian gave them the food, she said, "It's still early, take the meat and food back quickly. The food is fine, but the meat can't be kept. It's hot now, and it would be bad if the meat went bad." Ye Qian exaggerated. In the current weather, the meat would not go bad even if it was kept for a morning.
After everyone got their things, they gave the money and tickets to Ye Qian. Ye Qian took the money and tickets and went out with everyone.
The three of them went home, and Ye Qian also returned to the dormitory and put the backpack back in the dormitory, otherwise it would not look good if it was left in the office.
It was still early after I put down the backpack, so I went to the cafeteria to have breakfast.
When I returned to the office again, everyone else had arrived. When they saw Ye Qian, they all smiled.
Who wouldn’t be happy if there is food at home and people don’t have to go hungry?
The weather in May is like a child's face, changing in an instant.
The sky was clear in the morning, but it became cloudy and rainy in the afternoon, and there was a slight trend of the weather getting colder.
Today I happened to be on an outing with Jiang Xia again. Although we were inside the factory, we were still soaked.
As to why we didn’t hide from the rain, it was because there was nowhere to hide because the ground was all empty.
Seeing that the two men were soaked in sweat, Wang Juan asked them to go back and wash up first. They only had an hour left before they could get off work, but if they wore wet clothes for an hour, they would definitely catch a cold.
I am not an inhuman leader. No matter who it is, they will be flexible about this little thing. So I decided to let the two of them go home first.
