Chapter 27 The first day that Qian Ertian’s wife is in charge of the 30 yuan living expenses!
Zhaojiazhuang.
Although it is very poor, it is quiet and peaceful, nestled among the vast mountains.
The sunlight shines on every corner of the village, as if covering the entire village with a layer of golden gauze.
On such an ordinary day, Zhao Diao slowly walked into the house carrying a heavy load of 80 kilograms of coarse grains.
at this time.
Uncle Zhao and his family were busy in the yard.
If you look closely, you will find that there is a hint of fatigue on their faces.
Come to think of it.
I have to do such heavy work every day, but I can’t even get enough to eat.
It would be strange if they didn’t look tired!
But.
When they saw Zhao Diao carrying the heavy load of food, smiles instantly appeared on their faces.
Especially Uncle Zhao and his wife, their eyes were shining with surprise and relief.
They couldn't believe their eyes.
The second kid can actually earn food for their family!
You know, Zhao Diao used to be a well-known street scoundrel in the village.
The impression he gives to others is that he is not ambitious, idles around all day and does not work properly.
But today.
His most unreliable son not only brought back 2 yuan in salary yesterday, but also brought back a whole bag of coarse grains today!
This is undoubtedly a huge fortune for the Zhao family, who have always lived in poverty.
Uncle Zhao walked forward excitedly and took the bag of grain from Zhao Diao's shoulder, muttering to himself, "Good boy, you've really grown up and become sensible. Your father will enjoy your blessing in the future!"
The first time I was praised.
A warm feeling also surged in Zhao Diao's heart.
You know, in the past, dad and mom would sigh when they saw him!
They were even beaten with sticks every day.
At this moment, Zhao Diao really felt that he was standing up.
After Dad finished praising, it was Mom's turn.
Zhao Diao's mother took his hand and asked with concern, "Are you tired? Come inside and rest."
As he said that, he led Zhao Diao into the house and sat him down, and brought him a bowl of steaming hot tea.
The family sat around the table, excitedly discussing the uses of these whole grains and how to spend the upcoming New Year?
What makes their family excited is.
These eighty kilograms of coarse grains are only part of the salary, and the wages for the next two months have not yet been paid.
The family seems full of hope for the future.
This year will surely be a very comfortable and happy year!
after all.
Compared with the financial difficulties during the Chinese New Year in previous years.
They actually had an extra 80 kilograms of coarse grains before the New Year!
You know, for a family like theirs who can't get enough to eat every day.
Eighty kilograms of coarse grains is not a small amount.
Zhao Diao's work also saves his family a lot of money every day.
For example.
When Zhao Diao was at work, he usually had lunch at the food factory.
You don’t have to pay for the meal, Qianqian gave you a meal ticket.
Zhao Qianqian gave all the 3 yuan meal tickets per month to Zhao Diao.
Occasionally Qianqian would go to the food factory to have a look. Even if she had to use her meal tickets, she would still spend extra money to buy something good for the two of them.
Plus, since I’m off duty, I don’t have to spend money on food there.
So Zhao Diao has a meal ticket worth ten cents a day.
Eating in the cafeteria is cheap.
One cent can buy two big steamed buns made of two grams of flour, and you can also get free pickles.
Sometimes Zhao Diao couldn’t finish two steamed buns and would take half home.
If you buy brown rice, you can buy a big bowl for just one cent.
Anyway, it was very hard to see Zhao Diao eating free pickles all the time.
In fact, compared to their family life, it is much better.
You have to know that in their family, even cornmeal steamed buns are not enough to fill them up.
On the surface.
Zhao Diao only eats one meal at the food factory, which only saves one meal's rations. How much contribution can he make to the Zhao family?
But their family only eats two meals a day.
An adult man has a big appetite.
The half-month food rations saved by Zhao Diao were enough to feed the children in his family!
And also.
Zhao Diao would occasionally bring back some food that was about to expire or buy very cheap food.
For example, a few days ago.
Zhao Diao got two loaves of bread that were about to expire for free, and they enjoyed it so much as they shared it with their family.
And things like expiring bread.
Even if it was given to Zhao Qianqian, she wouldn't want it!
Count it up.
Their family got a great deal!
Uncle Zhao and his family all swore in their hearts: "In the future, we will definitely find a chance to repay her."
Originally, Zhao Qianqian wanted Zhao Diao to ride his bicycle to the food factory.
She can just bring it back occasionally when she goes to work.
But Uncle Zhao's family was afraid that such an expensive bicycle would be damaged, so they asked Zhao Diao to return it that day.
And when he returned the car, he also brought a wild rabbit for Zhao Qianqian.
Originally, if they exchanged this little wild rabbit for money, they could sell it for at least one dollar.
But he felt that he was taking too much advantage of Zhao Qianqian.
That's why I gave her this rabbit.
Zhao Qianqian really didn't expect that her cousin not only returned the bicycle that day, but also gave her a wild rabbit.
to be honest.
She really wanted this rabbit.
After all, wild game is not that easy to get.
Besides, the rabbit is still alive, so she can keep it and eat it whenever she wants.
but.
She also knew that her second uncle's family was very poor.
So Zhao Qianqian gave her second cousin one dollar, but she didn't expect him to say he didn't want anything.
But Zhao Qianqian didn't want to take advantage of others.
It's not that she is morally upright.
But my second uncle’s family is really too poor.
Suddenly thinking of her salary, she indulged herself and bought two kilograms of meat.
I also made two big pots of buns stuffed with leeks and pork.
So pack some buns for my second cousin to take home and eat.
So she forced him to pack four big buns to take back.
An ordinary meat bun costs about 10 to 20 cents each.
But the meat buns made by Zhao Qianqian are definitely worth twenty cents each.
Because her buns are not only full of meat, but also made of pure white flour, and the portion is huge!
This can be considered as returning the wild rabbit in disguise.
Old Qian's family.
Qian Ertian’s wife has been making a fuss for so long, but today she officially took over the living expenses of the Qian family because today is the day when Qian gets his salary.
So she got 30 yuan for living expenses today.
Qian Ertian’s wife had been looking forward to this moment for a long time, thinking about how to plan this income.
Of course, the most important thing is how to make sure that the Qian family has good food.
Only in this way can we give Zhao a slap in the face.
Only then can I better get back the monthly living expenses.
but.
The Zhao family also has their own plans.
Anyway, now it’s just her and her youngest son eating at home.
Then she just had to hand over enough food for the two of them.
She took all the remaining food to Zhao Qianqian.
When the time comes.
She wanted Ertian's wife to pay the highest price for food.
There are many people in the Qian family who have no work points and no food. Those who earn work points at home are cheating and are still young.
To sum it up in one sentence.
This company is not that easy to be!
At the dinner table.
As soon as the second wife of Tian received 30 yuan of living expenses, Zhao reminded her: "After giving her the monthly living allowance, she should first buy more than 10 yuan of food."
"What?" Xia Lan said angrily, "Mother-in-law, are you embezzling all the food?"
In the countryside, the brigade will distribute food.
Moreover, before the family split up, she had never seen the family lack food.
No matter whether the food is good or bad, the purpose is to make everyone full.
Mrs. Zhao had long been on guard against Xia Lan making a scene: "Daughter-in-law Ertian, this is the tradition of the old Qian family. When I was the housekeeper, I also took out 10 yuan every month to buy food. Everyone can testify to this. Also, this is the record of the food distributed at the beginning. There are still three months left. If you don't believe me, you can let them all see it."
