Rebirth in 1980, the rise of the golden age

Yu Ping was too lazy to look at the family of three and turned to go to the kitchen to prepare dinner.

As soon as I took out two eggs, Qiao Honglan followed out.

Seeing Yu Ping holding the eggs, his face fell again: "Why are you so greedy? Put the eggs back. The potatoes in the cellar will sprout if we don't eat them. Why don't you get some cabbage and make some gada soup?"

After saying that, Qiao Honglan didn't even look at Yu Ping, ran out of the house in a hurry and went straight to the toilet.

Yu Ping was very angry.

The family is not short of money, but there is still no meat or fish.

"Leave the money for your coffin!" Yu Ping muttered softly.

Although she was reluctant, Yu Ping was still prepared to put the eggs back.

Stealing eggs is definitely not an option because Qiao Honglan counts the number of eggs at home every day.

Just as she was about to put it down, Yu Ping suddenly had an idea and thought of a way to find out the doctor's name.

the next day.

Chu Lao Er got up early again and arrived at the gate of Li Youcai's house.

He wanted to repeat the same trick, so after Li Youcai went out to work, he went into the house to block Chu Xinyan.

But after waiting for a long time, I finally waited for Li Youcai to go out, but in the end, the family of three was ready to leave together.

This made Chu Laoer, who was hiding outside the fence and peeking, feel troubled for a moment.

If Li Youcai were here, Chu Xinyan probably wouldn't give him money.

Seeing that Li Youcai was holding Duoduo and walking towards the courtyard gate, Chu Laoer finally didn't have the courage to stand up and hurriedly hid.

I watched with my own eyes as Li Youcai and Chu Xinyan walked towards the bus stop outside the brigade.

I returned home helplessly.

It was a wasted trip, which made Qiao Honglan even more annoyed.

"What else can you do? What's the use of having Mr. Li here? It's better if he's at home. It also saves Chu Xinyan from having to say she has no money and making excuses."

Chu Lao Er was annoyed by Qiao Honglan's noise, so he turned away and left the house: "If you have the ability, go ahead. Don't you know what kind of person that guy is? He's so annoying with his constant nagging."

"Come back here! Don't come back if I kick you out!" Qiao Honglan continued to chase and shout.

But Chu Lao Er had already walked out of the yard and went outside to watch others play chess.

He remained indifferent to her screams.

As usual, Yu Ping finished her housework, changed into clean clothes and took an empty pocket.

"Mom, I'm going back to my parents' home. My second aunt is bringing my sister home today, and it just so happens that we haven't seen each other for a long time."

When Qiao Honglan heard this, she felt a little unhappy but did not stop it.

"Just come back after you've gone home. There's a lot of things to do at home. Don't delay cooking."

"I understand." Yu Ping responded and left.

After leaving, Yu Ping did not really return to her parents' home, but quietly went to the county town. She did not go to look for Li Youcai, but just strolled around the county town.

Yu Ping went around the supply and marketing cooperative and the farmers' market.

Yu Ping likes every one of them, including vanishing cream, soap, lipstick, and pearl powder.

Although she got the money from Li Youcai, she had no way to buy it now. If she took these things home, Qiao Honglan would definitely ask her where she got them from. Not only would she lose the things, she would also have no way to explain.

Yu Ping calculated the time and returned home just as it was almost time for dinner.

As soon as she entered the room, just as she had expected, Qiao Honglan's face became long and she started to complain.

"Didn't I tell you to come back early? Why did you have to come back so late? Who would cook for you if you didn't come back?"

"I have something to do at home. I chatted with my sister for a while and I'll go cook now." Yu Ping didn't say anything back. She lowered her head and went to the kitchen to prepare dinner.

Chu Gensheng limped into the house with a crutch, looking dejected.

Seeing Yu Ping, she didn't say hello, but went into the east room to find Qiao Honglan: "Mom, give me ten dollars."

"What do you want the money for?"

Chu Gensheng's face was filled with dejection: "Oh, don't ask me anymore. Anyway, I'm useful. Just give me 10 yuan."

"If you don't tell me what it's for, I won't give you a penny." Qiao Honglan refused to give it.

"Oh my! Just asking, what are you asking? Er Gouzi and I lost at poker and I owe them 10 yuan. They're waiting outside right now, and they won't leave until I pay them back."

"What did you say? Did you go to swipe the money?"

Upon hearing this, Qiao Honglan was furious. She picked up the small broom used to sweep the kang and hit Chu Gensheng.

Chu Gensheng blocked it with his arms and yelled, "What are you doing, Mom?"

"I'll beat you to death. You don't want to learn good things, but you want to learn how to cheat?" Qiao Honglan, who used to be the most used to Chu Gensheng, started beating him with a broom.

Chu Gensheng was already upset after losing money, and now he was beaten. He was even more upset. He grabbed the broom and snatched it away with all his strength.

Then throw it into the corner.

"Just beat me to death! I'm a cripple and can't do anything anyway. Living is worse than death."

Upon hearing this, Qiao Honglan softened her heart again.

"Son, you must not gamble. It will ruin your family."

"Li Youcai is famous for playing with money. Why can he get rich but I can't?" Chu Gensheng said disapprovingly.

Everyone who is close to him knows that Li Youcai is a bad gambler.

In the past, everyone would spit at him and look down on him when they heard his name.

Now everyone who hears his name will comment on him, saying things like a prodigal son returning home is worth more than gold. I wonder how many people are jealous of him.

Chu Gensheng is the best among the jealous people.

Although he belittled Li Youcai, he actually wanted to surpass Li Youcai in his heart.

So he turned his attention to the card table, wanting to see if there was really a secret to getting rich on this table.

Chu Gensheng, who was not very good at playing cards, was naturally the fat meat in the eyes of others. He lost one or two dollars today and won fifty or eighty cents tomorrow. After a few times, his gambling debts had accumulated to 10 dollars.

"Son, you are confused. Don't you know what kind of life Li Youcai's family lived before?" Qiao Honglan was furious.

Chu Gensheng said impatiently, "Oh, you can teach me a lesson later. Hurry up and give me the money. It's embarrassing for the neighbors to see the debt collectors blocking the door."

Qiao Honglan had no choice but to take out a big unity note and pay back the money for Chu Gensheng.

Yu Ping watched all this indifferently without saying a word.

At this moment, she had already made up her mind to leave, so even if Chu Gensheng started to play around with money, she was not that angry.

However, Qiao Honglan was very angry and felt sorry for the 10 yuan she lost. She lay down on the kang, wrapped her head with a towel, and cried out in pain.

When Chu Lao Er came back, he learned that Chu Gensheng had lost money gambling and his creditors had come to his house to ask for money. He was so angry that he wanted to hit someone, but was stopped by Qiao Honglan again.

Yu Ping prepared dinner and the family gathered around the kang table, everyone lowered their heads and ate in silence.

Yu Ping held the bowl of rice and swept her eyes over the faces of the three people from the old Chu family.

He slowly said, "Mom, do you know anyone who has a newborn baby that they don't want?"
