The couple made a living in the 1950s.

Chapter 72 Joining the Work 4

Time flies, and in a blink of an eye, Lin Hanyu and Bai Ye have been working for more than a month.

Tomorrow is Sunday, and tonight we are in the bedroom on the second floor of the Bai family.

Bai Ye looked at his wife who was proudly showing him her salary, and a smile flashed in his eyes.

Their design institute just paid salaries a few days ago, and architectural designers received technical-level salaries.

As an intern who graduated from university, he was paid 14 yuan for level 48.5 salary. After one year, when he was confirmed as a regular employee, he would be paid 13 yuan for level 55 salary.

His son Hanhan gets an administrative-level salary.

As an intern college student, I am currently earning the salary of a level 23, or 5th level clerk, which is 49.5 yuan.

After her one-year internship was completed and she was hired as a regular employee, she received the salary of a level 22 clerk, or level 4 clerk, which was 56 yuan.

His wife now earns one yuan more than him every month.

The little woman in his family was so happy for a while because of this.

Early in the morning, Lin Hanyu lay weakly on the bed.

She calmed down a little when she felt her body had been cleansed and refreshed.

By the time Lin Hanyu came downstairs, it was already past breakfast time.

At this moment, the three treasures were sitting under the awning in the yard studying.

Bai Ye was alone, sitting on the sofa in the living room, listening to the radio.

Seeing her coming downstairs, he got up and went to the kitchen to take out the warm breakfast in the pot and put it on the coffee table in the living room.

Lin Hanyu sat next to Bai Ye and started to eat breakfast.

Bai Ye consciously reached out to massage his wife's waist. He had indeed gone a little too far last night.

When the three treasures entered the house, Bai Ye was washing dishes in the kitchen, and Lin Hanyu was sitting on the sofa drinking sour plum soup.

"Mom, are the wontons for breakfast delicious?"

Seeing his mother nod, Sanbao's big eyes were full of smiles.

“I made the wonton filling this morning.”

Lin Hanyu looked at the three children in front of him, feeling satisfied.

Sanbao, who is almost twelve years old, is now beginning to look like a grown-up girl.

Over the years, she has been using the secret recipe left by her mother to keep her three children healthy.

Even at such a young age, it is foreseeable that she will be extremely beautiful when she grows up.

Dabao and Erbao have grown into little teenagers, probably because the food at home is good.

Before they were twelve years old, they were already 1.65 meters tall.

He is taller than many adult men today.

"dong dong dong"

In the afternoon, Lin Manyu and Bai Ye were playing Go with their three children in the yard.

Then I heard a knock on the door from outside the Moon Gate.

When Bai Ye opened the door, he saw Zhu Jianjun standing outside. He raised his eyebrows slightly.

“Is the water pipeline going to be built to the East Cross Courtyard?”

"Well, the collective faucets in the main courtyard and the west wing are installed in the third courtyard."

"Your east wing is also designed to be installed in the third courtyard, and we will be going there to install it soon."

"Li Ze and Ding Qiang's family are bringing tap water into their homes."

"I can't leave right now, so I came to tell you."

"If you also want to bring running water to your own yard."

"We need to go to your front yard and talk to the plumber about this."

Seeing that Bai Ye had not returned for a long time, Lin Hanyu walked over to him and just happened to hear clearly what the two said afterwards.

Bai Ye saw his wife walking up to him, turned around and looked at her with a smile.

"Hello, can I go to our front yard to see where the water pipe is being repaired?"

Lin Hanyu looked at Bai Ye and Zhu Jianjun as they walked towards the main courtyard together.

The smile in his eyes could not be concealed. This courtyard had an old meritorious man, Mr. Zhu, who could really come in handy at the critical moment.

There are many former residences of famous people in the Yandaixie Street area.

At this moment, everyone wants to spend money to have running water brought into the yard.

Old man Zhu also lives in their yard, so the progress of installing the tap water pipes is naturally not slow.

The original rule was that it didn’t matter how deep the yard was or how many people lived in it.

The collective faucet should be installed not far from the entrance to the courtyard.

They happened to be able to install a collective faucet in the middle of the three courtyards.

In this way, the water pipe can be laid directly from the collective faucet in their east cross-yard to their yard, and the distance will be much closer.

The staff who were installing the water pipes helped Bai Ye lay the pipes into the Bai family's yard.

The remaining pipes were laid and connected by Bai Ye himself.

By the time he finished working on the tap, it was already evening.

Lin Hanyu reached out and turned on the faucet that had been installed in the kitchen for several years.

Watching the water gushing out of the faucet and flowing into the water tank, her eyes were filled with smiles.

After that, A Ye finally didn't have to go to the bitter water well to fetch water and pretend to use it to wash clothes.

They no longer need to buy water from the well and pretend it is drinking water at home.

In addition to Bai Ye's family, Li Ze's family, Ding Qiang's family, Lin Ping'an, Jiang Jiadong and Mr. Zhu's family also brought tap water to their own houses.

Each of these households uses its own water meter.

The water bill is not calculated together with the collective tap in the yard.

It was the first time for the three kids to see water coming out of the tap at home, and they were obviously more excited than their parents.

Sanbao even used hot water from the tap to wash the new handkerchief his mother made for him.

A lot of things happened in the courtyard in 1957.

In September, Jiang Mingbo took a train to Harbin Military University to study, which was both a military academy and a military camp.

Wang Lai Di became the third girl of her generation in the courtyard to go to high school.

Just as her family expected, her younger brother failed to get into junior high school.

After all these years of procrastination, Ding Yunli finally got his marriage certificate with Ling'er in October.

He also officially moved into Ling'er's home in the west wing of the third courtyard in the east wing.

In the blink of an eye, it was 1958, and it was less than half a year before Sanba and Li Fanglei were scheduled to take the college entrance examination.

At this moment, in the bedroom on the second floor of the Bai family, Lin Manyu was sitting on the sofa looking at the "Resident Shopping Card" placed on the corner table.

Last year, in accordance with the practice of unified purchase and sale of grain and oil, the Beijing Municipal People's Committee had already designated vegetables as a second-category national commodity.

At the same time, there are reports that a "voucher supply" of meat will be implemented.

This year, the country began to implement a rationed supply system requiring tickets for eight kinds of non-staple foods, including pork, beef, mutton, fresh eggs, white sugar, brown sugar, cakes and vermicelli.

Among them, Han people are supplied 6 taels of pork and 5 taels of beef and mutton per person per month.

Each Hui Muslim is supplied with 1 jin of beef and mutton per person per month.

Every household can buy 1 kilogram of eggs every month.

Households with more than ten people can buy two kilograms of eggs each month.

Each household is supplied with four ounces of brown sugar and white sugar every month.

Residents of Beijing began to register for vegetable supply with the "Resident Shopping Card", which was delivered every three days, with each person receiving one kilogram of vegetables.

Each person is issued an oil ticket every month, with which he can purchase three taels of cooking oil.

As soon as Bai Ye entered the bedroom, he saw his wife sitting on the sofa reading a book.

"Wife, I just had dinner with Fu Jia, Wang Wei and the others."

"Wang Wei said that his family and Li Lanyu's family got together yesterday to discuss their marriage but they didn't come to an agreement."

"Li Lanyu wants to break up, Wang Wei wants you to help him make peace with Li Lanyu."
