It's so hard, I'm dressed like a group favorite in the 1960s

Chapter 10: It’s Not in vain that I love this child

"Okay, no problem, when you come back, I'll take you out to play.

Bao, you have been living comfortably these days.

And let me tell you, we hunted four wild boars last night and got a lot of meat. We'll make some for you later. Haven't you had much meat in the city lately?"

Jiang Junjun whispered to Xiao Pengzi.

"Oh, my sister, you are really awesome! At this moment, you are the person I admire the most." When Xiao Pengzi heard that there was meat to eat, he praised Jiang Junjun like a lackey.

Although he already knew that they would have meat to eat every time they came back, because whenever grandma's family got meat or other good things, they would send some to them, but it was really inconvenient for them to get food in the city.

You can't eat meat all the time, you have to hide it.

Otherwise, your neighbors will always smell the aroma of the meat you cook and wonder what kind of life you live.

What if you encounter someone who is jealous of you and does something to report you? Wouldn’t that be the end of you?

Nowadays, there are many people suffering from conjunctivitis.

"Sister, let me tell you.

Alas, my brother is really at a loss. Although my father also has meat coupons, it is difficult to buy meat in the city.

We dare not say that we eat the meat you sent us every day. We have to hide and eat it every day.

Add to that your brother, and I'm in the growing stage now, and I still don't feel full even if I eat eight meals a day."

After Xiao Pengzi finished speaking, he rubbed his stomach.

"Oh, poor thing, it's okay, I'm here.

I have nothing to do during this period, and I don't need to earn work points in the fields. When I have nothing to do, I will go to the mountains to get some food. When I come back, I will make some meat sauce, dried meat, etc., and I will bring some back for you.

I got so much this time because I wanted you to take more back and mail some to your brother.

Like you said, if you eat meat and it's inconvenient to cook at home, then I'll bring you some more dried meat. It's all meat after all, and the nutrients will grow in your body once you eat it."

Fourth brother didn't come back with us this time because he had to go to work.

Jiang Junjun rubbed the poor Zhao Peng's head.

"You little brat, you're eating yourself into poverty. Why didn't you just say you could eat more?"

Zhao Weiye never spoiled the two boys in his family.

Zhao Weiye is a tough man who never smiles. He is a veteran and now works as the deputy director of a steel mill.

His tenderness is only given to his wife and this little niece.

In front of outsiders and his son, you really can't see him smiling at all.

Although he knew that what his son said was true, he still couldn't help but say a few words to him.

Come to think of it, nowadays, working in the city has a good title and you can eat commercial grain, but you only earn a small salary every month and have some bills.

To be honest, life here is not as convenient as in the countryside.

Just like his father-in-law's family, they live at the foot of the mountain, some distance away from the village, so it is convenient for them to get anything they want.

Especially during those years of famine, if it weren't for the support of their father-in-law, the four members of their family, including their parents, would probably have starved.

At that time, the price of food and other commodities was high, and it was inconvenient to eat anything. It was only when my eldest and second uncles went hunting in the mountains when they had nothing to do that the whole family had some meat to eat.

"Junjun, you don't have to worry about this kid. He's just growing up and he's a big eater. As he said, he still doesn't feel full even if he eats eight meals a day. He's just craving for food now.

But he wasn't treated unfairly.

Come and see, these are the little leather shoes your Grandpa Zhao and Grandma Zhao bought for you." Jiang Aihua found it funny to see her niece and her youngest son arguing with each other.

"Oh, look how much Grandpa Zhao and Grandma Zhao love me. These little leather shoes are really beautiful. Thank them for me. When you go back, please bring them some more food for me.

Tell them that it is my way of showing filial piety to them.

I'll go see them when I have time in the city.

When Xiao Pengzi is on vacation later, let them come back with the shed and stay here for a few days. We have enough room at home anyway." Jiang Junjun looked at her uncle's parents and couldn't put down the leather shoes they bought for her.

Nowadays there is no such thing as imitations as in later generations. Whether it is clothes, shoes or other aspects, they are all genuine.

Jiang Junjun held the small leather shoes in her hand and liked them more and more the more she looked at them. They didn’t look old-fashioned, and the leather felt very good to the touch.

Jiang Junjun put it on on the spot and showed it off in front of the whole family.

Zhao Weiye was very happy to see that his little niece liked the little leather shoes her parents bought for her.

His mother has never been lucky with girls in her life. After giving birth to herself hurt her body, she never had another child.

So I have always liked girls and thought he could give her a granddaughter, but in the end, he didn't live up to his expectations.

Therefore, he loved the only girl in the Jiang family very much and treated her as his own granddaughter.

"Okay, Zhao Peng is on vacation and there's nothing to do at home, so let them stay with us for a while. I'll tell your Grandpa Zhao and Grandma Zhao when I get back.

I guess they are very happy too, as they can stroll around the village every day after returning."

Jiang Aihua thought that her mother-in-law and father-in-law were actually quite bored in the city, as they just strolled upstairs or downstairs every day.

But in the city, every family is competing with each other, and her parents-in-law have never liked to interact or chat with that group of people.

When I return to the village, I can chat with my parents and stroll around the fields when I have nothing to do. It’s also nice.

"Well, you can ask them to come back. If they can't, they can just live here in the winter. It's the same upstairs, not very warm. We have a kang at home, so we don't have to worry about it getting burned. This room is especially warm in the winter.

Then, when I have nothing to do, I can stroll around the village, chat with the old men and women, and gossip. How nice.

It's winter, and we're not busy, so we can go hunting in the mountains. The food we have at home is definitely much better than what you eat in the city, and it will also help them recuperate."

When the eldest aunt saw her sister-in-law and her family come back, she was very happy that her eldest son was going to join the army. It was his brother-in-law who helped him get the place in the army.

During the famine years in the past few years, the elderly all hoped that their children would be well, so they saved as much food as possible for themselves.

Although their family was not starving, it was impossible for them to eat very full, so Grandpa Zhao and Grandma Zhao felt sorry for their grandson, son and daughter-in-law, and they did not eat too full at every meal.

They are already old and have not had enough to eat, so their bodies must have suffered some damage. So after the famine years in recent years, everyone is trying to replenish their bodies.

When Zhao Weiye heard his niece and family members concerned about his parents' health, he felt comforted. This child has loved her since she was a child, and it's not in vain. She has always been so filial.
