Hair for money?
Hu Xiaoman blinked. How could her nutritious hair be exchanged for money?
But there is not much at all, what can be exchanged for it?
She didn't understand Zhang Chunxia's heartache at all, she just felt that her hair was ugly and worthless.
Although Hu Xiaoman has been in this era for quite some time, he has never truly integrated into this society.
Deep down, she felt like she couldn't really fit in.
Because I know the prosperity of later generations, and what I have accepted and seen since I was a child are all different.
Zhang Chunxia ignored her. Since the things had gone into the public pocket, she really didn't dare to ask for them back.
She didn't even look at Hu Xiaoman for the whole afternoon, and she wanted to get angry as soon as she saw him.
Prodigal child!
Hu Xiaoman was happy to have some peace and quiet. She hid in the dim little room, tidied up the house, and then took out the quilt to dry.
Even though the duvet cover had been washed in the space, it still looked dirty and could not be washed out.
The evening meal is still barley porridge, and we only eat steamed corn bread in the morning. This way we can satisfy our hunger. The morning is too long and we can’t stand it if we eat too little.
Hu Xiaoman ate a small bowl and went back. She should now eat millet porridge to continue nourishing her stomach.
The yard was filled with the smell of food, but it was all the smell of corn.
You can tell as soon as you smell it. There is nothing else except this thing.
"Grandma, is there any rice? I didn't eat, so my mom made a small bowl of grits, but it's not enough."
Hu Bing, the youngest son of the eldest brother, spoke loudly, and then walked into the room of Hu Qinghai and his wife.
Hu Xiaoman was watching over there in the hut and was no longer surprised by this situation.
In addition to the youngest son of the eldest brother, Hu Jun, the boy from the third brother's family, also often goes there to eat.
Although both of them work, they have many children at home.
There are three children in my eldest brother's family, all sons. It is true that the little brats are eating their father out of poverty.
The eldest brother, Hu Lin, is twenty years old and works as a temporary worker at a grain station, earning eighteen dollars and fifty cents a month.
The second child, Hu Dong, is eighteen years old this year and is still in school. He is a good student and his family members are reluctant to stop him from studying.
If you get into university, you will become a cadre in the future.
The third child, Hu Bing, was not very good at studying, but he was very good at eating, drinking and having fun. Compared with his two older brothers, he only knew how to eat and not feel hungry.
Hu Xiaoman glanced at his third brother's house. They didn't go home tonight. Zhang Chunxia said that they went to Du Fang's parents' house for dinner.
My third sister-in-law's family is well-off, and they often go there for food and drinks.
However, the eldest brother's family lives a hard life. The three boys eat too much. Hu Lin is old enough to get married, but he doesn't even have a partner.
Hu Xiaoman curled her lips. It was not her turn to worry about these things, so she should just take care of her own business.
Locking the door, she flashed into the apartment.
The lights in the house were still on, as if there was endless electricity.
Take out a packet of Chinese medicine from the table and cook it in a casserole.
Fortunately, I liked drinking soup before, so I bought a few clay pots, otherwise I would have to use a non-stick pot to cook Chinese medicine today.
This thing needs to be boiled for a long time, so Hu Xiaoman looked at the time and went upstairs.
She picked up the tablet, opened the live broadcast platform, and watched the video.
In fact, none of these things could interest her. The most important question now was why the outside world had forgotten her?
Hu Xiaoman couldn't figure out these things, but she knew one thing: now she could contact the outside world.
But what's the use of that?
If you can’t go out, does that mean you can understand the situation?
What’s the use of understanding it!
Hu Xiaoman flipped through the videos in frustration, and then found a video of boneless chicken feet.
There is a link on it, which says it’s for 66 yuan and 92 kilograms of boneless and sour chicken feet.
This is a must-have for her when watching TV series, and it tastes very delicious.
Hu Xiaoman didn't eat much in the evening, and his mouth was watering at this moment.
She threw down the tablet, went downstairs, opened the refrigerator, and found no boneless chicken feet in it.
"I should have bought more and stockpiled them!" She sighed a little disappointedly.
There's nothing I can do...
"Huh?" Hu Xiaoman had an idea, then ran back upstairs and clicked on the video link.
Sure enough, there was a page for placing an order.
The address is also the apartment's address, but she doesn't know if it can be delivered.
Never mind, just order first!
She quickly placed the order and after going through the payment platform, she opened her own payment app, which still had a balance of more than 20,000 yuan.
Hu Xiaoman doesn't have much property. After buying this apartment, he used all the money to develop the live broadcast platform.
She is a tens-million-level anchor, but she is not that rich. If she doesn't have money, she has a car and a house.
Usually, when live streaming to sell goods, a slot can cost hundreds of thousands of yuan, but people can’t afford to spend money lavishly.
The last deposit of one million was all my belongings, and I only have more than 20,000 left. I thought I could get the money after the May event, but I didn’t expect that I would be gone, let alone the money.
After the payment was successful, Hu Xiaoman stared at the page in a daze.
I don’t know what’s wrong with me. Could the express delivery be delivered?
You know, the packages in the apartments here are all placed in express lockers, how could they be delivered to your door?
"Oh... the money is useless anyway, so just spend it." She pursed her lips, then remembered that the Chinese medicine was still cooking, so she hurried downstairs to check.
The next morning, Hu Xiaoman had dinner and took medicine in the space, and then went out to work.
It’s better to eat some fine grains these days, and try to eat less corn porridge and steamed buns.
But she doesn't need to eat less. The family is running out of food. They have been drinking porridge these days and there is nothing else to eat.
As soon as June began, the weather was very hot, the sun was so strong that the ground was dry.
Anyone with a discerning eye knows that there is no way to harvest grain this year, and the food supply in the city will be cut off.
Hu Xiaoman looked at his family members with worried faces. Not only the adults, but the children as well could see that there was not much food at home, and none of them were as active as before.
Hu Xiaoman woke up in the middle of the night and came out to get some fresh air. He heard someone talking in a low voice.
"Mom, I'm so hungry." The little girl's voice was weak.
Du Fang sighed and comforted her, "Be good, Xiao Min. Mom will take you to grandma's house for dinner tomorrow."
They have been there twice this month, and even though she is her own mother, she feels embarrassed.
Every family was in difficulty, including her mother's family. However, they relied on their wealth to buy expensive food on the black market, so they didn't have to worry about food.
Upon hearing this, Hu Min stopped talking and looked forward to eating something dry tomorrow.
After hearing them go back, Hu Xiaoman went back into the apartment.
As a member of the family, she never thought about helping them have enough food to eat.
It's not that she is cruel, but a secret is always a secret. If others find out, she will not end up well.
What's more, contributing a dozen dollars every month is already very good.
At least a dozen yuan can buy dozens of kilograms of cornmeal on the black market, enough to eat for a long time.
In everything she does, she has done nothing wrong to the Hu family.
