Make two copies and have the whole family sign or put their fingerprints on them.
Zhao Wen had no choice. Saving his life was the first priority. He didn't want to be reported to the police station, so he had to agree.
I thought to myself that as long as the green mountains remain, there will be no shortage of firewood.
He still has a job, and if he marries Deputy Director Wang's daughter, he will have everything.
Qin Zhiheng tied them up again and stuffed the smelly socks into their mouths again.
"Wait till dawn and get a divorce!"
Yu You found a pocket, took out the watches worn by Zhao Wen, Zhao Quan, and Zhao Meili, and put the radio in the room into it as well.
He and Qin Zhiheng carried the sewing machine out, put it on a bicycle, and took it away overnight.
Yu You asked, "Should we take it to the guesthouse? And try to sell it?"
Qin Zhiheng hesitated for a moment and said, "These two things are very useful. Let's take them directly to the train station and check in both the sewing machine and the bicycle."
Yu You didn't expect that checked luggage is now possible in this day and age, and he also thought it was a good idea.
Besides, Kyoto was not a big city at that time and the train station was not too far away.
Qin Zhiheng pushed the bicycle and Yu You held the sewing machine behind him, and the two headed straight for the train station.
The ticket seller at the train station had already left work, and the sky in the east was already turning faintly white.
"It's time to go to work in an hour or two. Let's wait here."
The two of them decided to wait in the ticket hall until dawn.
I bought a train ticket for that evening and used it to check in my sewing machine, bicycle, and the bag containing my radio and watch.
The two of them didn't sleep all night, but they were very excited.
"Let's go pick up Big Sister and Yanyan, and take Zhao Wen with us to go through the divorce procedures."
Zhao Wen cooperated very well. He wanted to get rid of the Qin family as quickly as possible.
Qin Zhichu took the divorce certificate that had just been issued to him, and carefully touched every word on it with his fingers. His heart ached, and he squatted down and cried out loud.
Even at this time, Qin Zhichu's voice still carried a strong sense of depression.
How can the grievances suffered over the years be expressed with just a cry?
Yu You's defenses were broken, and tears started to form in the corners of his eyes.
Both Qin Zhichu and Yu Rou are kind and hardworking women.
But they just met the wrong person, suffered a lot of grievances in their marriage, and were looked down upon by people of this era after their divorce.
It shouldn't be like this. They should have a better way to live.
Yu You's mind was in a mess, and he felt like he had to do something, but for a moment he couldn't figure it out.
Qin Zhiheng has already started discussing the next steps with Yu You.
"My eldest sister is divorced, so she should be able to return to her parents' home. I'll take my eldest sister and Yanyan to the Revolutionary Committee to see if we can transfer their household registration back to ours."
The city is going to clear out these households, but if they want to move into the village, they have to get the village's consent to accept them. Another solution is for the higher authorities to directly assign people there.
"Okay, if the household rations are really a problem, I can write a letter of introduction for a visit. It's not like my family can't afford to support them."
Qin Zhiheng nodded, and Yu You continued, "I'll check out of the guesthouse first, and then go to the hospital to complete the discharge procedures. Let's meet at the train station after we're done."
They had a train ticket this evening and were leaving for their return trip. They had to finish everything within one day.
The two of them discussed it and took action separately.
At the guesthouse, Yu You had sold most of the rice, flour, and sugar he had brought in his backpack, leaving only two pieces of pork and a small amount of food in his handbasket.
The weather was cold, but the meat didn't go bad.
Yu You put the meat in the basket, carried the empty backpack, and rushed to the hospital to find the doctor who had treated him to go through the discharge procedures.
Unexpectedly, this doctor was very meticulous in his work. Not only did he issue a certificate of injury, he also had the hospital's official seal stamped on it.
Yu You took out the meat from the basket and expressed his gratitude.
"If it weren't for you, my eldest sister-in-law and her daughter wouldn't know what would have happened! You have to accept the meat that was brought home no matter what."
Four pounds of top-quality pork belly—that was a huge expense! The doctor was shocked. She and her husband weren't in a bad financial situation, but they hadn't eaten meat in six months.
"This is too expensive. Saving lives is my duty. I can't accept it."
Yu You explained, "I brought this for my eldest sister-in-law's husband's family. Now that things have gotten so chaotic, shouldn't I take it back? Please keep it as our thank you gift."
The doctor thought about the elderly and children in his family who were craving meat, especially the little girl, who cried when she smelled the meat from the neighbor's house a few days ago.
Their family is a dual-income family and they have a lot of bills, but they haven't been able to buy meat for most of the past six months.
After thinking for a while, he opened the drawer and took out a stack of bills he had saved.
"I'll take the meat, but I can't take it for free. Take these receipts. They'll be considered an exchange between us."
After saying that, he stuffed the bill into Yu You's hand and pushed him out of the office in a few seconds.
Yu You didn't know whether to laugh or cry. She really wanted to thank the doctor. People of this generation were lovable in their own way.
Traveling light, Yu You looked at the remaining noodles, sugar, and eggs in his basket, walked around the ward, and quickly sold them all.
It’s still early, and since we’re in Kyoto, we have to buy something for everyone to take back.
Yu You counted the money and tickets in his hand.
The tickets that the doctor gave were very complete, including two kilograms of cake tickets, two kilograms of biscuits tickets, two bottles of canned food tickets, and four kilograms of sugar tickets that Yu You had always wanted.
She sold things in the hospital for twelve yuan, four pounds of grain coupons, two pounds of cake coupons, two pounds of sugar coupons, and seventy yuan given by her mother.
Eighty-two dollars, plus these tickets, was enough for her to go on a shopping spree.
Yu You went straight to the supply and marketing cooperative.
I ordered four boxes of snacks, each weighing one pound, and two packs of large butter biscuits filled with sugar grains, each weighing one pound.
