The 1970s: Military Family Beauty

Chapter 64: Unable to open the pot

When Hu Xiuqing heard that they had to go to the Finance Department, she shuddered and suddenly came to her senses.

No matter who Jiang Furong goes to, she will expose her family situation to others. If people from her workplace come to ask about it, she will be so embarrassed. She absolutely cannot go to that place!

But at this time, Jiang Furong asking for the grain certificate was like asking for Hu Xiuqing's life. She subconsciously refused: "No! It's not your turn to manage this family yet! I won't give it to you even if someone supports you!"

"I don't want to be a housekeeper, I just want to eat!" Jiang Furong said righteously: "You have no right to tell me to get out, and you have no right to not let me eat!"

Hu Xiuqing was furious: "This is my home. I don't have any rights. I can do whatever I want! I'll let you..."

Jiang Furong interrupted Hu Xiuqing's arrogance and reminded him one last time to see the truth: "I also have a share in this family! The food on the food certificate belongs to me! If you don't give me the food certificate, I will go to the Living Department and collect it separately!"

Jiang Xiaocui, who was cooking in the kitchen while listening attentively, was very impressed by Jiang Furong's courage - if such words were said in the countryside, it would mean dividing the family.

In rural areas, if a family has both sons and daughters, there is generally no need to divide the family. The parents' property is left to the sons by default. If there are two or more sons, the division of the family is usually only proposed after the death of the elderly. The division of the family will only be proposed early if the sons do not get along well with each other.

For example, the Jiang family's house in their hometown is now occupied by Grandma Jiang and Grandpa Jiang. Even if Jiang Xiaocui divorces and returns to her parents' home, the house will be left to Jiang Dapeng by default. After Grandma Jiang and the others pass away, whether Jiang Xiaocui can continue to live in the old house must be approved by Jiang Dapeng.

Jiang Dapeng now has two daughters and a son, and all of them tacitly agree that Jiang Dapeng's property should be left to Jiang Guoqing.

When Jiang Furong suddenly said that the daughter also had a share in this family and that parents had no right to beat or scold their daughters at will, Jiang Xiaocui was shocked and excited. She didn't rush to serve the meal immediately after it was ready, but lay by the door waiting for the next words, for fear of missing a word.

Hu Xiuqing understood the meaning of receiving it separately.

The clothing factory where she worked was an affiliated enterprise of the army. In addition to arranging for family members to work there, there were also technicians recruited from outside to do repairs. They were registered with the collective household registration, but each person had his or her own food ration book. They had control over their own food, oil, and meat coupons, and did not have to discuss it with anyone, so they were very free.

"You're dreaming!" Hu Xiuqing didn't want Jiang Furong to have such a good life. "Without your father, would your name be on the food register? Without your father, would you still be able to eat rice? Humph, you still want to get food coupons alone? Without your father, you have nothing."

Jiang Furong sneered: "Aren't you the same?"

Hu Xiuqing was left speechless.

Indeed, without Jiang Dapeng, Hu Xiuqing would not have her current life. She is still in her hometown, and no one knows who she will marry. What is certain is that she is still farming.

No bicycle, no job, no salary, only parents who ask for help and a lazy brother.

Hu Xiuqing gritted his teeth and remained silent for a while: "I will rest tomorrow and I will go buy food."

This is a concession.

But Jiang Furong was very rational. The problem had not been solved yet, so she would not be soft-hearted: "You don't have time to buy groceries when you are at work, but we still need to eat. Please leave the money for the groceries to me."

Spend more when you have money, and spend less when you don’t. You can’t spend nothing at all. Your family is not so poor that they can’t even afford to eat.
