After putting on clothes, I took the dirty clothes outside, rubbed them vigorously with soap, rinsed them several times with clean water, wrung them dry, and hung them directly under the eaves.
Seeing that it was getting late and Sun Rui had already gone home, he quickly locked the gate and went back into the house.
The children have all fallen asleep, and Zhou Huaian is waiting for the snow to clear.
Seeing that his wife's hair was still wet, he quickly took a clean towel and wiped her hair. "By the way, wife, where did you buy those grapes?"
"I can't tell you. This is my secret. If you need it, I can buy more next time. Or if you have any favorite fruits, you can tell me in advance."
I definitely can’t tell you this, I’ll just take this secret into the coffin.
Zhou Huaian: "I don't have anything special I want to eat, but I just think that the grapes are of such good quality, I will definitely make money if I sell them."
Su Qingxue didn't expect that he would think so quickly, but since she said she bought them, she definitely couldn't let him sell them. Otherwise, where would she get so many fruits? She could ripen one fruit in a day. It would be enough for her to eat them herself, but she didn't want to sell them.
"I bought so much to sell, but it's okay for me to eat it all myself. I can only eat more this month when the fruits are in season. After another two months, I won't be able to buy any fruit I want. You know how scarce fruit is here, and it's winter, so how can I get so much? I'll be lucky to have some for myself."
Su Qingxue persuaded him to give up the idea. He was not so eager to make money before. What was going on this time?
After drying my hair, I couldn’t wait to lie down on the kang and sleep.
However, he was worried about his two sons, so he went to the next room before going to bed. Seeing that his two sons were sleeping soundly, he touched their faces, kissed their foreheads, covered them with quilts, sprinkled a little water in the room, and returned to his room after making sure it was not too dry.
Just as I lay down on the kang and was thinking about closing my eyes to fall asleep, a hand came up from behind and kneaded my soft body.
"What's wrong? Did you think about it?"
Zhou Huaian didn't say anything, but he expressed his meaning directly through his actions.
He has indeed been hungry for a while now, and although he wants to sleep, as his wife's duty, he still has to hand in his homework.
When I woke up the next day, I saw Zhou Huaian and Sun Rui were still at home. After having breakfast, they dawdled until around eight or nine o'clock, when the family carried sacks and walked towards the brigade headquarters.
It wasn't too hot at the moment, so Su Qingxue also pushed the three babies along, not to mention the two sons, who had already been walking very fast behind their father.
When we arrived, we found that Zhang Jianguo, Feng Xue with their son Zhang Lin, Zhao Xiangyang and Li Yun with their daughter Zhao Nuannuan had already arrived. We also saw Qian Dazhuang and Du Keqing. Du Keqing's big belly looked like she was about to give birth. Gu Yuchu and Mu Qingxi were holding hands. Without children, there was no burden.
When Li Qiang and Zhou Qingqing came over, they saw Li Qiang subconsciously protecting Zhou Qingqing. Looking at her walking posture, this was also a good thing.
His eyes unconsciously looked at the other people at the educated youth point. Zheng Long and Liu Yulan did not act very close, but just by looking at their eyes, one could tell that they had a good relationship.
It seemed that few of the old educated youth at the educated youth site were still single, and only a few new educated youth were still single. Excluding Lin Jiayu who was about to go back, and the other two whom he had never looked down upon, he looked at the last remaining female educated youth, Zhao Qinghe.
Unexpectedly, she didn't see Zhao Qinghe after walking around, so she could only look away with regret. She heard from the aunties and grannies in the village that this female educated youth was quite nice, and she wanted to meet her. If she was really nice, she would invite her to her home, as she had a single man at home.
Since I haven’t seen it, I’ll wait until next time. Maybe we are not destined to meet for the time being.
Every time the food is distributed it is very lively. Even after watching it several times, it still feels fresh. Everyone has a smile on their face, simple and bright, making me subconsciously laugh along with them.
When the food is ready to be distributed, line up quickly.
Zhou Huaian was in line, and Su Qingxue pushed the two children under the eaves of the brigade headquarters to watch.
Listen to the conversations in the village.
"Your family has an extra child this year, and you can get an extra share of rations. That's great."
"Your family isn't that bad. Don't you have a new daughter-in-law? Don't you also have an extra head of food?"
"That's true, but we don't have any this year. My daughter-in-law's parents are not human beings. They refused to transfer our household registration. We had to wait until this year's grain was distributed before we could transfer. Anyway, my daughter is married. Isn't this just greed for my daughter-in-law's head grain and annual work points? It's really infuriating. Fortunately, my daughter-in-law is a good person and very hardworking. She earned back this little grain in a few years. This makes me feel a little relieved."
"Your in-laws are really not good. After the food is distributed, tell your son and daughter-in-law to move their household registration back. If possible, you should cut off the relationship as soon as possible. They are like blood-sucking leeches, staring at the young couple and sucking their blood. They are disgusting even if they can't kill them."
"I wonder if they have the guts to come over here. I'm not someone who can be bullied. If they dare to come, I'll teach them a lesson and let them know how powerful our Zhao family is."
"Indeed, if we don't show them some strength, they will think that there is no one left in our Zhao family."
After hearing the last part, Su Qingxue's eyes subconsciously drifted over, then quickly retracted them.
The person who spoke was a famous shrew in the village. Who could take advantage of them?
When I first heard what was said, I thought it was some honest man who was going to be bullied by his in-laws, but I didn’t expect it to be like this?
If you know their names, no one would dare to take advantage of them!
However, the information in the words was quite useful to her. Every newborn child would provide an extra head of food. There were five children in her family, so that meant five more heads of food.
I really haven't paid attention to this aspect. It was Zhou Huaian who went to distribute grain two years ago. I wonder if he got any per capita rations for his two sons?
He quickly ran to Zhou Huaian and told him what he had heard.
Zhou Huaian originally wanted to touch his wife's head, but when he saw so many people around, he stretched out his hand and quickly retracted it.
"Yes, there will be food after the baby is born. I seem to have forgotten to tell you two years ago, but even if there is food, it's not much, about 200 kilograms, but half of it is fine grains. It may be because the baby is still young, so more fine grains are distributed. This year, there are three more daughters, so there will be more food."
Feeling the scorching sun, he quickly asked his wife to leave, "Go hide under the eaves. The sun is too strong. Don't get tanned."
