The little girl said timidly, "Really? Brother, don't lie to me, Tangtang."
Liu Xiaojun was speechless: "When has my brother ever lied to Tangtang? Hurry up and get up. It won't look good if you cry like a little cat."
Tangtang then said obediently: "Okay."
When the little girl looked up, she was happy to see that there was indeed no trace of bamboo rat on the table.
night.
Liu Huizhen placed the processed bamboo rat meat in the cabinet and also processed the two rat skins.
The little girl played around all day and fell asleep soon.
Liu Huizhen whispered to Liu Xiaojun, "I see these two mouse skins are quite large. Some of them will definitely be wasted if we make gloves. Tangtang has small feet, so we can use two mouse skins to make her a pair of mouse skin boots. The little girl likes to play snowballs outside in the winter, and these mouse skins are thick enough so her feet won't get cold even if she steps on the snow."
Liu Xiaojun said, "Okay, listen to Mom. I don't know how to make this anyway, so I'll let Mom make the decision."
Liu Huizhen wiped Liu Xiaojun's thin cotton jacket and said distressedly:
"Next time you catch fish, don't exchange them for food. I used my wages today to buy ten pounds of cornmeal, which is enough to last for several days. See if you can exchange them for some cloth coupons and I'll take apart your old cotton-padded jacket and make you a new one."
Under the night light, Liu Huizhen's tone was gentle and soft, and Liu Xiaojun couldn't help but feel moved.
Before she came here, her mother had always been a strong woman and would never say such thoughtful words.
But Liu Huizhen is different. She is a gentle and virtuous mother, and I can feel her care for me from the bottom of my heart.
This also slowly melted a corner of Liu Xiaojun's heart.
Liu Xiaojun said with emotion: "Okay, then I can't make a new cotton-padded jacket by myself. When I make money, our whole family can make new cotton-padded jackets."
"You're talking nonsense. I have enough clothes on. Let's change yours and Tangtang's first."
Liu Huizhen glared at Liu Xiaojun.
Liu Xiaojun didn't say much. He knew that Liu Huizhen was too poor to bear the cost of the house, so he would just buy it back and report it later!
In the middle of the night, the north wind was howling and heavy snow was falling outside. Liu Xiaojun was lying on the bed summarizing the family's harvest.
I caught some sea bass and exchanged them for some food coupons and some flour.
They took home two kilograms of white flour in total. Sha Zhu, Yu Shui, and the three people in his family ate more than one kilogram of white flour in total.
Currently, the family has more than half a pound of white flour, one and a half pots of oil, two bamboo rats and ten pounds of cornmeal that Liu Huizhen bought with a day's salary.
He had two five-jin food coupons, two Class B tobacco coupons, and more than one yuan.
This half pound of white flour can only be eaten for one day at most. I haven't tried corn flour myself, but you can give it a try. If it really tastes bad, forget it and don't suffer the consequences.
If we don't count the cornmeal, the family will run out of food in half a day. It seems I have to go to the supply and marketing cooperative early tomorrow morning to buy some food, and go hunting in the mountains by the way.
Last time I found traces of rabbits in the mountains. If I could hunt some rabbits and sell them to the street office, I could use the money to buy food that would at least be enough for the whole family to eat for a while.
