Chapter 141 No Water
This is the time when vegetables come in.
Liu Qingqing bought a big bag for five cents.
As I was almost at the door of my house, a woman in her forties came out from the door a few doors away from my house.
She looked at Liu Qingqing, then fixed her gaze on the eggplant that was sticking its head out of the cloth bag.
"Big sister, did you just buy this?"
Most families in the compound have vegetable plots, but they won’t buy any. This young wife doesn’t know how to make a living.
When she looked at Liu Qingqing, Liu Qingqing was also looking at her.
He has scowl-shaped eyebrows, triangular eyes, slightly protruding cheekbones and slightly thin lips.
Looks a bit mean and doesn't want to fight.
Liu Qingqing hummed, took out the key and opened the door.
The woman came over and whispered, "Why don't you go buy these vegetables? We have them at home. You just moved in and haven't planted any yet, right? I have some at home. Next time you come back, I'll pick some for you."
Liu Qingqing bared her teeth and said, "Excuse me, sister-in-law. Everyone is struggling. Why would I take your food for nothing?"
She didn't say it was free, so the woman raised her eyebrows and said, "You don't have to pay for it, just bring some food to exchange for it."
Liu Qingqing pursed her lips and smiled: "Ah, so you still need food. My family is short of food too."
After he finished speaking, he opened the door and entered the yard.
The woman curled her lips, but didn't say much. She turned around and went back to the yard.
I guess this person is just like her family, living in poverty.
I heard that he was from the same village. Anyone from the same village had to send money back home.
The people in this compound, although the men have good salaries, many of them do not live well and have to support their natal family, in-laws, brothers, etc.
Normally, the men's quota of food has to be taken home so that the whole family has enough food.
Life is very tight.
After Liu Qingqing entered the house, she laid out the soy sauce, vinegar and salt one by one.
Vegetables are also placed on wooden racks.
She deliberately took out some extra vegetables.
As for meat, there is none.
Just think about how hard life is.
It’s not as good as when I’m alone at home.
"Baby, eat lighter meals recently to save energy. You're too big to go out in the last two months."
The baby in her belly didn't move at all, and Liu Qingqing felt bored.
Well, the baby in her belly is not some adorable genius baby.
Normally, when she gives her child prenatal education, she only occasionally punches him a few times.
Not only is he not a little genius, he is also a lazy baby.

After dinner, Guo Fengjuan came to visit with her daughter Xiaoxue.
She only took Qiu Xiaoshuang with her once, and never brought her to Liu Qingqing again.
"Sister, you have graduated from high school!" Guo Fengjuan looked surprised.
Liu Qingqing nodded. Although she didn't go to high school, her high school knowledge was not false. After all, she got up early and went to bed late, and studied hard all night to pass the exams.
At that time, high school only lasted two years, there was not much to learn, and there was no college entrance examination.
Their generation had a harder life than the students today, and it was more bitter than drinking coptis water.
The most important thing is that I overcame all difficulties and was admitted to university. After graduation, I worked 996 in the company and my cell phone had to be on 007.
Guo Fengjuan was surprised: "Oh, sister, you can go to work in the service center, or you can go to the city school to be a teacher."
The service agency requires academic qualifications, but it is full now, so you may not be able to get in even if you want to.
It would be a good idea to be a teacher in the city. The schools where the children of military personnel attend have connections with the army, and the military family members have sufficient academic qualifications, so you can ask the leaders to coordinate.
She was thinking about asking her whether she wanted to go to the cafeteria or the textile factory when her child was old enough to go to nursery.
These people generally have low educational levels, especially those who come from the village, who are either illiterate or have only primary school education.
There are very few with a high school diploma. In the entire compound, most of the military wives with a high school diploma are working in the service center.
Liu Qingqing smiled and touched her belly: "I can't go anywhere for the time being."
Guo Fengjuan followed her movements and looked over: "Don't worry, just wait until the baby is born. He will grow up quickly. When he is about seven or eight months old, you can send him to a nursery."
"What can a little kid do in the nursery?" He won't be able to speak, won't he cry all day?
Guo Fengjuan pointed at Xiaoxue, who was squatting and playing by the door. "My eldest was born in my hometown, and I took care of him myself until he was four. This youngest was born in the army, and I sent him to a nursery when he was only four months old. I go over there every few hours to feed him. The nursery is full of our military wives. Sister Yu Qing from our regiment is also there. We all have a good relationship, so she can take good care of the child and won't let him get away with anything."
Liu Qingqing nodded: "This nursery has solved many people's problems."
"Yes, thanks to the nursery, I was able to go back to work at the textile factory early."
Although Liu Qingqing said so, she had no intention of sending it.
No matter how careful you are, if you leave your own child in the care of others, there will be some suffering.
What's more, there are so many children who are busy and dizzy. Children under one year old can't even tell you when they urinate, and they will get rashes on their buttocks after a long time.
At least you can run, jump and speak fluently.
Their family has no burden and they have their own small stash of money, so they don't have to wait for her to work to earn that little money.
