The couple made a living in the 1950s.

Chapter 83 Natural Disasters 4

Lin Ai was so shocked by the seriousness in her husband's eyes that she couldn't recover for a long time.

Today is New Year's Eve.

New Year's Eve has always had a special meaning in the hearts of the Chinese people.

It is the most important end of the year, and people celebrate on New Year's Eve.

Say goodbye to the old year and welcome the new year.

Now is a difficult time, and this year's New Year's Eve dinner on every household will definitely not have the dishes of previous years.

At this time, in the Bai family restaurant.

The whole family was sitting together eating hot pot.

Erbao sat at the dining table, looking at the Chinese cabbage, rapeseed and lettuce on the table with a smile on his face.

He has been taking care of the vegetables in the wooden boxes on the second floor of the kitchen at home since he went on vacation.

Bai Ye put the pork slices into the copper pot and looked up at his second son who was smiling.

A smile also appeared in his eyes.

"The day after tomorrow, we'll go to the photo studio, take some pictures, and then go home."

“Most people are so hungry that they are exhausted.”

"It looks like our family has never been hungry. It's not appropriate for us to wander the streets now."

After hearing what their father said, the three treasures nodded.

After dinner, the family made dumplings and sat on the sofa together to celebrate the New Year.

At this time, most of the yards still had no electricity.

Lin Hanyu placed the kerosene lamp on the coffee table where delicious food was already placed, and sat down next to Bai Ye.

"Mom, hasn't Mingbo returned home since the start of school?"

"Well, I heard from your Aunt Meijia that now military academy students have to go to the army for training during the winter and summer vacations in the first three years of enrollment, and only have time to go home in the last two years."

Bai Ye was sitting next to him and looked up at his little girl. "Why did you think of asking Mingbo?"

"I was just thinking about what happened with his grandma today. What would Mingbo do if he was at home?"

Bai Ye leaned on the back of the sofa, raised his eyebrows and looked at his little girl.

"What if his parents don't want to know about this? How can he know?"

"Other people's affairs have nothing to do with us."

Sanbao secretly curled his lips in the dim light of the kerosene lamp.

Bai Ye, who was watching her, caught her red-handed.

"Don't pout like your mother."

"Hahaha……"

Lin Hanyu looked at his two sons who were laughing and sniffed.

"This year, I have discussed it with your Aunt Mei and Aunt Meijia."

"Let's not go home to celebrate the New Year first."

"You brothers and sisters, go to your uncle and aunt's house tomorrow to pay New Year's greetings and hurry home. Don't go anywhere else."

On the first day of the Lunar New Year, the three treasures had breakfast.

Covering myself tightly, I went out early and walked towards the main courtyard.

When they returned home, they also brought Fang Lei, Fang Xu, Fang Jun and Ruyang back to wish their parents a happy new year.

Lin Manyu smiled and put peanuts in the children's pockets.

After watching them go out to play, he turned and looked at Li Fanglei who was sitting next to his daughter.

"Leilei, you haven't come to my house to play with Sanbao recently."

Li Fanglei looked at Lin Manyu with a smile, "Aunt Manyu, I have been practicing knitting sweaters at home recently."

After she finished speaking, she secretly glanced at Erbao.

When she realized Erbao wasn't looking at her, she couldn't help but lower her head and pinch her fingers.

Seeing her like this, Lin Hanyu smiled and nodded without saying anything else.

In the eyes of outsiders, the reason why her family, Zhang Mei's family, and Meijia's family were not too hungry was because they had good jobs.

In this yard, those who have no jobs have to go hungry when the food supply is not enough.

Now, the days they live in the yard are becoming more and more low-key.

The New Year holidays are the best, and tomorrow Lin Hanyu and Bai Ye will start working again.

At this moment, in the bedroom on the second floor of the Bai family.

After taking care of her skin and hair, Lin Hanyu climbed onto the bed and snuggled into Bai Ye's arms.

Bai Ye put down the notes in his hand and bent down to kiss his wife's little face.

Noon, Municipal Public Security Bureau.

Lin Hanyu walked to the cafeteria as usual, ready to have lunch.

"Hanyu, wait for me."

As soon as she entered the cafeteria, she heard someone calling her from behind.

Lin Manyu turned around and looked at Li Huiying who was running towards her with a smile.

"Han Yu, Deputy Section Chief Wan is accompanying the leader to inspect the work at the police station today."

"We'll have dinner together today."

Lin Hanyu frowned slightly and lowered her head to hide the emotions in her eyes.

What she said sounded really annoying.

In the cafeteria, Lin Hanyu was holding his lunch and trying to find a corner to sit down.

Li Huiying, who was following behind her, quickly pulled her to sit in the middle of the cafeteria.

"It's good for us to sit here. It's in the corner, far from the door."

Li Huiying looked up and saw Lin Manyu eating the multi-grain steamed bun seriously, her eyes twinkled.

"Yunyu, isn't the food subsidy for your husband's design institute much better than ours?"

Hearing this, Lin Hanyu couldn't help but think of the ten cornmeal cakes that Aye brought back before the New Year.

Now some companies can distribute ten cornmeal cakes to employees at once for them to take home.

It should be considered a good food subsidy.

Thinking of this, Lin Hanyu looked up at Li Huiying.

"Nothing bad, just normal and about the same as us."

Li Huiying looked at Lin Manyu with hope, "Manyu, do you have any food you can lend me?"

"I'll pay you back after I get my rations next month."

"You want to borrow food from me? I was wondering if I could borrow some food from you."

"I have three children, all of whom are still growing up, and two of them are still teenagers."

"Now they want to eat every meal out of a bowl."

After hearing what Lin Manyu said, Li Huiying lowered her head and thought about it.

She only wanted Lin Hanyu and his wife to have good jobs.

But she forgot that she has three children who are at the growing age.

Li Huiying sighed softly. She herself was not in a very good mood.

But no matter what, she can eat multi-grain steamed buns and stewed cabbage for lunch at the company.

Her family is indeed in difficulty now. Her four sons are all growing up and eat a lot.

Her husband works in a machinery factory, and the situation at his workplace is not as good as hers.

Wan Ling had originally promised to lend her some food for emergency use after the New Year, but now he has gone back on his word and refused to lend her the money, catching her off guard.

When Lin Hanyu got home from get off work, the three treasures had already prepared dinner.

At this moment, it was Wang Laidi's house in the back house of the main courtyard.

Wang Baozu saw his mother give the sweet potatoes in her bowl to his sister instead of giving him any.

He raised his head and gave Wang Lai Di a fierce look.

Seeing that her eldest grandson was not full, Zhang Daya reached out and took the sweet potatoes from her granddaughter's bowl and gave them to her grandson.

Wang Baozu took the sweet potato and ate it in a few bites, fearing that it would be snatched away again.

When Li Lanying saw her son like this, she took a deep breath.

He raised his hand, took the sweet potatoes from Wang Youjia's bowl and gave them to his daughter, then watched her finish eating.

Every May and June, the Bai family courtyard is full of flowers in full bloom.

Because there was little rain this year, Lin Hanyu was worried that the trees in the yard would not grow well, so she had to water them from time to time.

At this moment, she was standing under the pomegranate tree, looking at the lush pomegranate flowers in front of her, and the smile in her eyes could not be hidden.
