Chapter 255



Not bad, not bad, really good.

These three sheep are enough for a good winter.

Fortunately, the space can keep things fresh, and it is very cold at this time, so the mutton will definitely not go bad.

Instant mutton, roasted mutton, marinated mutton bones, braised mutton, boiled mutton, mutton dumplings, stewed mutton, mutton offal soup...

When Qiao Jiuru thought of so much delicious mutton, he almost couldn't help it.

She especially likes shabu-shabu mutton, roasted mutton and mutton offal soup.

She decided to have more mutton hotpot and roasted mutton this winter. If the lamb was not enough, she would buy another one.

There is a production team nearby that specializes in raising sheep as a sideline business. Our production team also raises more than 30 sheep. When the time comes, we will hand over most of them, and we will definitely be able to keep a small part to kill and share with everyone.

In addition to sheep, there are also pigs. Before the festival, the pigs must be slaughtered and the meat distributed. These days are really beautiful.

Qiao Jiuru felt that after the autumn harvest, she would have a good life. Here, she really felt that the winter was particularly good.

Full of security.

If we are running low on some daily necessities, we can ask Huazhu and the others to go to the commune to buy them back. That is not a problem.

Or, Uncle Jiu and Bai Lianshan could bring it for us. Every month, the two of us would secretly ask the people in the cowshed to count what we bought. Then when Bai Lianshan went to the commune for a meeting, he would buy it and secretly deliver it to the cowshed at night.

Therefore, we were in the production team and couldn't go anywhere. As long as we had some money and tickets, we could still make ends meet.

When I returned to the production team, time was the same as usual and no one noticed me.

There is no work in the fields now, and today is a good day to distribute grain to everyone, so everyone in the production team is very happy.

Neither Qiao Jiuru nor Su Huaiyuan's family was in a hurry to go over. The first group to distribute grain would definitely be the members of the production team, then the educated youth, and finally it would be our turn.

Therefore, we went there early, watched others distribute the food, and then waited slowly.

Not long after the family finished breakfast, Old Feng came over with his grandson, Cai Qingwen and his wife, and other people from the cowshed.

Everyone's face was full of smiles, and they couldn't help but feel happy. This time was better than the last time. Mainly because the Su family came, the money they had hidden in their hands could buy good things, and they no longer had a problem eating and dressing warmly.

"After we distribute the food, we have to go up the mountain to find firewood. Bringing back more firewood will make the winter more comfortable."

Lao Feng and Qiao Jiuru discussed what to do in the afternoon. Before they could go out because of the heavy snow, finding mountain products was also a top priority, in addition to firewood.

Mountain products can also increase our food intake, and they are delicious, nutritious, and a rare delicacy.

"Starting from tomorrow, we can go look for mountain products in the morning and spend two hours looking for firewood in the afternoon. It will be hard to find mountain products after the snow."

Qiao Jiuru wanted more of the mountain products, which were really good stuff, and she especially wanted to go into the mountains.

"The mountain products here are really good. From what I've seen, the people in the production team can find several large bags, and we can usually only pick up two bags."

These two bags of dried fruits are not fresh. The owners are not as familiar with the locals, so they often dare not compete with the members and can only stay away.

Even though there were only so many, the people in the bullpen felt satisfied. After all, aren't they human?!

Qiao Jiuru was thinking that it would be better if she and Su Huaiyuan went into the mountains to check out the area tomorrow, perhaps they could help everyone find more places to buy mountain products.

When the time was almost up, everyone took the prepared bags and walked towards the team headquarters together.

However, when they arrived, only one-third of the members had received food, and the scene was very lively and exciting.

When Qiao Jiuru saw this scene, he estimated that it would take until after noon for them to get their food distribution.

Therefore, she decided to take Dabao and Xiaobao with her, and Feng Zilu went back first because the weather was too cold and she was afraid that the children would catch a cold.

Sure enough, at noon, when she was cooking, Zhou Wanwan and Su Ze came back with three bags of food.

Seeing this, Qiao Jiuru hurried to help and asked Zhou Wanwan to look after the two little ones at home while she took Feng Ziru to help.

Fortunately, in the past half year, when we had free time, we made several carts similar to small carts with wood, which are now used to transport food.

Not only did they help transport the goods for their own family, they also helped Cai Qingwen and Lao Feng and others. With everyone working together, they transported all the goods back in less than two hours.

This time, Qiao Jiuru's family received 3600 kilograms of coarse grains, 135 kilograms of fine grains, 200 kilograms of cabbage, and about 100 kilograms of radish.

Although coarse grains are not tasty, everyone got the most coarse grains. It is not bad to eat coarse grains and fine grains together. Qiao Jiuru has such a plan.

All the food was delivered back home, and everyone took time to eat lunch. There was still some time left, so everyone went to the nearby mountains to collect firewood. They collected as much as they could; there was no need to waste time.

That evening, Su Huazhu and the others came again. The Dashan Village production team had also distributed grain that day, and the three children all got some.

"Aunt, I calculated that my brother and I have less than two months' food shortage from tomorrow to the autumn harvest. But this is also easy to solve. We can fill it up with some wild vegetables and have enough to eat."

Xiaoshu's face was full of satisfaction. She felt that such a life was very good. Although she was small, she was quite strong-willed, not squeamish and willing to work. She was much better than the female educated youth in the educated youth center.

It took Song Luoyun half a day to get used to the work in the fields. During the autumn harvest, he could earn almost ten work points. The brother and sister were the main earners of work points.

The brother and sister were very happy with the food they were given. They felt content as they had food in their hands.

"Mom, Dad, brother and sister-in-law, I got some too. I calculated and it's enough for me to eat for eight months."

Su Huazhu usually earned about five work points a day, and seven during the autumn harvest, but she never slacked off, was never late, or left early, and would never ask for leave unless necessary.

Therefore, the food she was allocated was considered good among the female educated youth. When it was not enough, she would mix in wild vegetables or vegetables she grew herself. During the winter when they did not have to work in the fields, many people only ate two meals a day, so that they could save food.

However, Su Huazhu did not have to do this. Not only could she eat enough, but she could also eat well. She did not have to worry about not having enough food.

Captain Bai Qingshan also told her privately that if she didn't have enough food in the future, her family would send it to her.

But Su Huazhu didn't need the captain's family to subsidize her, she had her own money and tickets. Last time she sold the quota for the Workers, Peasants and Soldiers University, she got 100 to 200 yuan, and she had already given it to her mother.

She knew that her mother would take good care of it for her, so Su Huazhu was not worried at all.

"Aunt, I asked the team leader about what you told me last time, and he said he can help with this matter. Also, he said it would be best for me to ask you if any of your comrades here have any mountain products to sell?!"

Song Luoyun really listened to Qiao Jiuru's words and went to find the captain Bai Qingshan, but after listening to him, Bai Qingshan gave him this suggestion.

Qiao Jiuru understood Bai Qingshan's meaning as soon as he heard it.

"Let me ask. Also, I suggest you give Comrade Guang a call. If there are a lot of them, is there any way for you to bring more back?!"

This was something that Qiao Jiuru suddenly thought of. If Song Luoyun could bring more back to Beijing, everyone would benefit.

Song Luoyun's eyes suddenly lit up, and he looked at Aunt Qiao with burning eyes, feeling extremely excited.
