Quickly wear it and get rid of his virtuous character

In less than a week, Su Tong had saved two or three hundred yuan, plus a pile of bills. Taking advantage of his break today, he went directly to the market and bought two pounds of meat, a few pieces of tofu, some eggs, two bags of peach cakes, and a pound of brown sugar.

When Xiufen saw so many things, she was so shocked that she didn't know what to say, and she didn't even know where to put her hands.

"Why did you buy so many things? It must have cost a lot of money, right?" Xiufen said with some heartache.

Su Tong still likes Xiufen very much. She is hardworking and has a good personality. It would be great if she and the original owner were a married couple. At least there wouldn't be so many conflicts in this family.

"I went out to help out recently, and I was embarrassed to ask for money, so I asked them to give me some food." Su Tong handed over the meat and snacks, "The children haven't eaten meat for a long time. You can use the meat and eggs to make some dumplings later, so that our family can have some meat.

By the way, keep these two packets of peach cakes. I will give them to you and the child when the time comes. Don’t share them with the two girls. Keep the brown sugar for yourself. I see that your hands and feet are usually cold. I guess you must have suffered a lot of grievances when you were young."

As soon as she finished speaking, Xiufen burst into tears. Isn't the purpose of a woman marrying a man to find someone who cares about her? Although her previous man treated her well, compared to the latter man who bought her brown sugar, there is simply a huge difference between them.

Su Tong handed over the cloth coupons he had saved during this period, "Hongxing and Jianguo are getting old, make them some decent clothes. As for the two girls... wait a while, when I save up more money, I will make them two big cotton-padded jackets, and also make you a flowery cotton-padded jacket."

Xiufen wiped her tears and nodded, feeling that life was becoming more and more hopeful. Especially after the children came back and learned that they could actually eat dumplings at home, she was so happy that she didn't know what to say. You know, ordinary families could only eat dumplings during the Chinese New Year.

Maybe because there were delicious food, the children were particularly well-behaved today. They were not as noisy as before. Hongxing even helped Xiao Cuier with her homework. All of them looked very harmonious.

Next to Su Tong was a cup of sweet potato liquor. This stuff was cheap and had a high alcohol content. The original owner would usually drink two cups after getting off work, but Su Tong didn't like it. He just took two sips and put it aside.

"Cui Cui, I have saved up the money for building a house. I will ask Uncle Zhou to come to our house tomorrow to take a look. I think it won't take long before we can build a new house."

When Xiao Cui heard that she was going to live in a new house, her eyes lit up, "Dad, you are so good to me."

Hongduo was also very happy. Xiaocui had moved out, which meant that she could live in a house alone.

When Jianguo and Hongxing learned that they were going to have a new set of clothes, they showed satisfied looks on their faces. Children really only need some resources. As long as they give them enough, they will stop making trouble.

Nowadays it is a planned economy, so if you want to build a house you have to plan for a long time. Fortunately, Su Tong has several good brothers, one of whom works in a brick factory. With some money and connections, he quickly brought in several truckloads of bricks, bought some cement, and stewed some pork elbows. In less than a month, he built two small houses.

"Oh, your Su family is really amazing. This house was one of the best in our area before, and now you have built two new houses. It's really enviable."

Su Tong smiled awkwardly, "There's nothing I can do. The two children at home are grown up, and we have to build them a new house. Especially for Jianguo, he will have to find a wife in a few years. Building the house in advance will save the couple from conflicts over the house in the future."

Yes, Su Tong secretly went to the black market when no one was paying attention, sold two watches, and made three or four hundred yuan. He then hired someone to build a house, mainly for Jianguo.

Now, except for the youngest child Jianqiang, everyone in the family basically has their own room. They have their own independent space and the children won't make trouble anymore.

Su Tong originally wanted to buy a sewing machine, but the house is the most important thing right now, so the matter of the sewing machine has to be put on hold for the time being.

Because of the house building, Su Tong didn't have much money, but he bought furniture for the children. He got some waste wood from the recycling station, and then found some iron plates and made some cabinets and boxes on the wall.

Although the furniture looks somewhat unique, it is very sturdy and durable and will last for at least 20 to 30 years.

Jianguo and Hongxing graduated from junior high school this year. Su Tong asked them to take the entrance exam for technical secondary school first. As a result, Jianguo was admitted but Hongxing was not. Su Tong still continued to support Hongxin's studies as agreed, and promised to find a job for him after he graduated.

Hong Xing took advantage of her mother not being at home to find Su Tong and said straight to the point: "Uncle, don't worry, I won't ask for your job for nothing. When I have a job and a stable income, I will move out."

Su Tong had no intention of driving him away, but it would be best if the other party was willing to leave the house. Ask yourself why you don't treat someone else's son as your own?

Haha, haven’t you learned enough lessons from history? Look at Dorgon, he treated Fulin like his own son and even gave him the throne, but what did he get in the end? He was still crushed to ashes and even regarded as a criminal.

He did not have the ability of Dorgon, nor did he have the patience. The only thing he wanted to do was to protect his own children and only show superficial love to Xiufen's other two children.

However, it was beyond his expectation that his son Jianguo could be admitted to a technical secondary school. At that time, technical secondary schools were still quite valuable, and after graduation, they could be directly assigned to work. It seemed that he did not have to worry about his son Jianguo's work.

People from the neighborhood committee had come several times before, and they all said that they had several children in their family and they had to send one or two to the countryside, but Su Tong was younger than them and had to continue going to school, so they declined.

However, when the remaining two children grow up a little, we still have to find ways to keep them here. It would be best to delay it for a few more years. After 1976, the children probably won't go to the countryside anymore.

In the blink of an eye, another year passed. Su Tong made a radio and a clock by taking on jobs for others. He had some money and bought three big items for his home (a radio, a watch, and a sewing machine).

Thinking that his children at home were all grown up, Su Tong asked someone to exchange some bicycle tickets. He gritted his teeth and used some new bicycle tickets and some extra money to buy some old bicycles.

Jianguo and Hongxing each had one, and then it was Hongduo and Xiaocui. They went to the same school, so they rode the same bike.
