He Yuzhu used a chicken leg to get the news from Yan Jiefang.

Yi Zhonghai really needs money, so he asks Yan Bugui to clean the toilet.

However, Yan Bugui was a man of honor and did not agree.

This matter will be settled.

On the way home from get off work, people everywhere were talking about: "Farmers are still the best. The food from one acre of land is enough for a family to eat for a year."

When they arrived at the courtyard, Yan Bugui recited the contents of the newspaper to everyone as if to show off.

When he saw He Yuzhu coming in, he said, "Zhuzi is the deputy director of the canteen at the steel mill. He knows a lot of information, you can ask him."

He Yuzhu didn't dare to say that, so he could only perfunctorily say, "I've never farmed before, and I can't read a newspaper. You should ask Uncle San!"

No matter how successful He Yuzhu is, these people in Siheyuan will always treat him as a fool.

He Yuzhu said he didn't know, but they thought it was very reasonable.

Then everyone started talking.

After returning home and sitting for a while, Lin Jinghan also came back.

He Yuzhu said: "Don't tell anyone outside."

"I know. I'm just worried."

He Yuzhu said, "I am worried too. How about this, I secretly buy some food and store it at my home over there? What do you think?"

Lin Jinghan looked at He Yuzhu suspiciously: "Do you suspect that those things are fake?"

He Yuzhu shook his head: "Don't say that. It's always a good idea to prepare some food at home.

Luckily we have a house in secret.

If it gets to our courtyard, there will be another disturbance."

Lin Jinghan said: “No wonder you didn’t let me return the house and didn’t let it leak out.

Do you want to tell Aunt Wang?"

He Yuzhu smiled bitterly and said, "Aren't you causing trouble for Aunt Wang? She is in charge of this. External publicity is the responsibility of the street office.

What should she do after you tell her these things?
She can’t go against the policy from above.”

Lin Jinghan said worriedly: "I am worried about the nursing homes and orphanages. If there is a problem with food, their lives will be the most difficult."

He Yuzhu said: “You can mention it to Dean Wei and try to save some food while there is plenty of it.

I can’t say anything else.”

Lin Jinghan agreed: "Okay, tell the master too, and write a letter to Dad."

He Yuzhu thought for a moment and said, "It would be bad if I wrote a letter specifically and someone saw it.

This way, Yu Shui and Yu Qing can mention it when they write to each other.

Buy some and keep it while grain production is increasing.

As for Dad, there is no need to worry too much. A famine will not kill the cook, and he will not starve.

You should also try to remind your father-in-law."

Lin Jinghan said: "How to remind him. He is in the army and lives in the army's family compound. It is also difficult for the family to prepare too much food.

I can only mention it to grandma secretly."

The two were worried about this, but they couldn't change the general trend.

Jin Youcai's sister-in-law sent food to his family. She was vague about it to others, but it seemed like it was true.

At the Jia family's side, Jia Zhang has been complaining for several days, saying that there is so much grain in the countryside, but the relatives from her hometown refuse to send it to her family.

In the past few days, the Jia family asked Yi Zhonghai to borrow grain, but Yi Zhonghai refused to lend them any grain and even gave them corn flour.

Yi Zhonghai said to Jia Dongxu: "Dongxu, it's not that the master doesn't want to help you.

You know how I have treated you over the years.

However, my food supply is also rationed.

Then, you can write a letter to your hometown and say that we are willing to exchange food with them.

We have industrial tickets and various supplies here, we can use them to exchange.”

Jia Dongxu already had this intention, and when he heard Yi Zhonghai say this, he agreed.

When he got home and discussed it with Jia Zhangshi, Jia Zhangshi said, "Yi Zhonghai said he would exchange it for something, and he will pay for it when the time comes."

Jia Dongxu went to Yi Zhonghai again and told him Jia Zhang's conditions. After hearing them, Yi Zhonghai was not angry.

There are only two of them in his family, so they don’t have much demand. They can’t use up all the tickets every month.

Those tickets were eventually used to exchange for food coupons to help the Jia family.

It was originally something given to the Jia family, and now that it can be exchanged for food, he will definitely be happy about it.

This is much more cost-effective than exchanging food in the city.

Jia Zhang thought that all the food she got would be given to her family and they would be able to eat white flour buns every day, so she urged Jia Dongxu to write a letter.

Qin Huairu was also moved when he heard it.

Without Sha Zhu, the sucker, she couldn't bear to go back to her parents' home.

My relationship with my mother’s family is not as good as before.

Her sister-in-law from her natal family was full of resentment towards her, her younger sister-in-law.

When I went back home for the Chinese New Year, my nose was no longer a nose and my eyes were no longer eyes.

Her mother had no status in front of her daughter-in-law. She was despised by her daughter-in-law.

At that time, everyone thought that she would enjoy a comfortable life after marrying into the city. People from her family didn't ask for much advantage, but they could at least get some benefit from it.

As a result, when her younger brother got married, he asked her for fifty dollars, but she didn't even have any.

This caused her younger brother and sister-in-law to be very dissatisfied with her.

Her parents never visited her in all these years. During the summer and autumn harvests, they specifically told her not to go home.

It was obvious that he didn't want her to go back to her parents' home to take advantage of him.

Qin Huairu could only go back to her parents' home once a year, during the Chinese New Year.

Her parents' home will also look at the value of the things she brings back before deciding whether to keep her for dinner.

Now that the harvest is good, her parents haven't even told her.

Now that Yi Zhonghai wants to exchange things for food, this is a good opportunity for her to ease the relationship with her parents' family.

"Dongxu, can I write a letter to my parents too?"

Jia Dongxu said, "Okay. There is no shortage of food in the countryside, but there is a shortage of food in the city. No matter how much food we get, it will not be enough.

We can also make a little profit from the price difference.”

Hearing that there was some profit, Jia Zhang said, "Qin Huairu, tell your parents to bring more. It would be best if we could bring 10,000 kilograms."

Qin Huairu was also blinded by greed and did not consider whether there were so many in the countryside.

Anyway, the radio and newspapers all say it exists, and no one refutes it, so it must exist.

After writing the letter, Jia Dongxu was about to go to the post office and happened to meet the postman passing by.

Yan Bugui saw it and asked, "Dongxu, who are you writing to?"

Jia Dongxu has been looked down upon over the years.

The older ones have nothing to say to him, and the younger ones are unwilling to submit to him.

He dreams of having a day to be proud of himself.

Now that the opportunity had come, he was a little too proud: "Third Uncle, I'm writing letters to my hometown and Huairu's family."

Yan Bugui's eyes immediately turned into a square shape: "Did you ask them to send some food over?

Life in the countryside is good now. We can’t wait to eat a steamed bun and throw away another steamed bun.

Isn’t Qin Huairu a rural resident?

Can I get food if I go back to the countryside?"

Jia Dongxu was stunned, then quickly ran home.

If you don't work in the countryside, you won't get any food. But what if you work in the countryside?

The summer grain has been harvested, so there is definitely no share for them.

But if we go back now, we can still catch up with the autumn harvest.

Yan Bugui looked at Jia Dongxu with dissatisfaction: "Young people nowadays really have no rules at all.

I haven't finished talking yet, why are you running away?" (End of this chapter)
