The Snail Spirit Travels to the 1970s

Chapter 358 Throwing Things

After the police left, everyone else was a little at a loss, except for people like Tian Tian whose food was not stolen, and people like Liang Rong and Zheng Mingyue whose families were relatively well-off.

The others didn't know how to get through the rest of the day. The county had a fixed monthly supply of grain. If there was no grain this month, it would mean that the food would have to be taken from other people in the family. This way, no one in the family would have enough to eat, and it would be an extra expense.

Yu Juanhua and the others were also thankful that since they looked poor, nothing was stolen.

Li Wenxiu was actually fine. Her brother was married and her sister-in-law had jobs, so the four of them earned enough every month. Although she threw away the food, the family could still find enough food for her if they saved a little.

"Better take your keys with you next time you go out, otherwise it'll be hard to keep losing things!" Tian Tian said.

"If someone comes back and the dormitory door is not open, then just wait at the door for a while. If it's a holiday, put the key in the hands of someone who doesn't leave. During busy farming seasons, winter and summer vacations, put the key on the door frame. Anyway, by then everyone should have taken away their valuables, so there's no need to worry about someone stealing them." Tian Tian suggested.

No one has any objection, but this may make life a little inconvenient. They can't even get into the dormitory at first, but it is very easy for them to accept the theft of tickets, lottery tickets and money.

Now that the dormitory key issue has been resolved, the most important thing is what everyone should do in the following days.

Liang Rong and Zheng Mingyue immediately decided to ask for leave from school tomorrow, saying they wanted to go home to get food. Although Li Wenxiu's family conditions were not that good, she could still get the food if she gritted her teeth.

The mood of the others was not so good. There happened to be quite a lot of people whose things had been stolen, so everyone was chattering outside and discussing it. Ma Shuhua and the others went to the corridor and joined everyone.

This matter had nothing to do with Tian Tian, ​​and she had no ability to solve it, so she had to go into the house, pack up her things, and soak her feet in the new water she had collected in the evening.

After Tian Tian finished packing and washing up, the lights in their dormitory went out. It was time for them to turn off the lights as usual.

There was another round of complaints outside, but soon everyone came back and went to the bathroom with basins to wash up.

The noise they made while washing was a little loud, which disturbed others who had already gone to bed. However, thinking that everyone had been robbed today, they were not in a good mood, so no one spoke. Only after they finished cleaning up and went to bed did the dormitory become quiet.

The next morning, I got up early, washed up and prepared to go to the cafeteria to eat, and there was another round of complaints in the entire dormitory.

Many people had their food and vegetable coupons stolen last night, and they were left without a penny, so they couldn't eat in the morning.

Liang Rongrong and Li Wenxiu had a good relationship with Tian Tian, ​​so they came over to have a meal with Tian Tian, ​​and then they all asked for leave and went home.

Zheng Mingyue couldn't bring herself to ask everyone for help, so she had to go home hungry early in the morning.

This incident also caused an uproar in their school. After all, it was the first time that such a serious theft incident had occurred in their school in all those years.

The school obviously knew about everyone's family situation, and all the food that everyone handed in was in their hands. In the end, the school decided to return two-thirds of the food to everyone and distribute it according to the quota registered at the police station yesterday.

When this decision came out, many people breathed a sigh of relief. They had lost their food, and if they went home to ask their family members for food, they would be beaten and scolded.

Now the school is actually willing to give them food. Even if the amount is less than before, if they eat sparingly, it will be enough for them to eat until the end of the month. Even if they feel a little hungry, it doesn't matter. Everyone here has been hungry before. For them, it's no big deal.

Everyone happily went to the cafeteria to line up to receive new food coupons. The new food coupons also had to be registered. Once the police station received the news, the coupons had to be returned to the school, otherwise the school would lose a lot of food.

When Tian Tian heard this, she wanted to call Li Wenxiu and Liang Rong back immediately, but she didn't know where their homes were, so she had to wait for them at the school gate.

When Tian saw the two of them, he hurried over and told them the school's decision.

When they heard this, they looked at the food coupons they brought back from home and hesitated.

After all, the school’s food coupons will have to be returned if food is found in the future.

They already have food, so there is no need to go to school to get new food coupons.

Once you find the food coupons, just keep them. You don't have to submit them to the school, which is very troublesome.

Tian Tian disagreed with their idea. "What if we can't find food in the future? Just give it to the school for free? What about more than 20 kilograms of food for a month? It's a little troublesome, so it's fine."

When Li Wenxiu heard this, she immediately put the food she had carried from home at Tian Tian's feet and ran to the canteen to get new food coupons. Her family was not rich enough to just throw away 20 kilograms of food.

Liang Rong heard and looked at Li Wenxiu, then looked at the food in her hand, and decided to follow Li Wenxiu to get the food coupons. I put the food at Tiantian's feet and said, "Help me keep an eye on it. After I get the food coupons, I will send them back to my family."

After saying that, Liang Rong also disappeared.

Tian Tian had no choice but to stand in the shade at the gate and wait for the two of them to come back.

There were many people going to the canteen to collect food coupons, and the counting and registration was also a big project. Tian Tian waited for a while before seeing the two of them come back.

Li Wenxiu and Liang Rong came back with the food coupons. Each of them took out a two-liang food coupon and handed it to Tian Tian.

"Here you go! I ate your food this morning, and now I'm returning it to you." Tian Tian happily took the food coupon and put it in her pocket.

The two of them put away the food coupons and carried their own food. "Let's go home and send these food back first. Please tell the teacher for us."

Tian Tian nodded, watched them walk away, and returned to the dormitory.

The dormitory was noisy and everyone was happy that they could still get some food back. They had thought they would starve this month, but they didn't expect to be able to get some back.

Everyone thought they had lost 100% before, but now they find out that they only lost 30%, and they feel relieved and happy.
