1959: Carrying the achievement system, she rolled

"Mom, why don't we give these two jobs one to my uncle's family and one to my second uncle's family." Du Yimeng suggested. She knew from the original owner's memory that when the five siblings were young and had no food to eat, their two uncles' families and my second uncle's family would sometimes help them.

Especially Uncle Du's family, Mr. Du and Mrs. Du should have been raised by their family, and according to the rules, parents should live with their eldest son.

On the one hand, they had a house, and on the other hand, the pressure of life was too great, so the two old people followed Uncle Du to the countryside.

His father sent five dollars to Uncle Du every month, but Uncle Du's family would also send some food from time to time.

Du Weihai and his wife looked at each other and saw the guilt in each other's eyes. They had been poor for many years, so whenever there was something good, they would subconsciously only think of their own family. They really didn't think about the two relatives just now.

It’s no wonder they think this way. If they can’t even survive themselves, how can they think about others?

"The third child will graduate from junior high school in a year. Why don't we reserve a spot for him?" said Du's mother.

The third brother was also moved after hearing what Du's mother said. What if he failed to get into high school and couldn't find a job?

"If the third child is allowed to drop out of school, he will at most be a worker in his life. Third child, knowledge will never let you down at any time. You should study hard first and worry about the other things later." Du Yimeng said the first sentence to her mother. She did not agree to let the third child drop out of school.

Sure enough, this sentence made Du's mother hesitate. Her daughter could be admitted to technical secondary school, but her second son couldn't. But maybe her third son could. After all, in her eyes, the third son was the most obedient child besides her daughter.

She is now just like the fisherman, throwing out a net. No matter whether she can catch fish or not, at least she has a lot of nets!

She turned her head and looked at Du Weihai, meaning that he was the head of the family and should make the decision.

"Listen to Dameng." Du Weihai said sincerely. His daughter is a technical secondary school student and her salary is higher than his. She must have a longer-term vision than him. It would be right to listen to his daughter.

"What does the third brother think?" Du's mother glared at Du Weihai. It was as if he hadn't said anything. She decided to ask the third brother's opinion!

"I'll listen to my sister!" The third brother nodded vigorously. His sister would not harm him. He might not trust himself, but he believed in his sister.

"Okay, since you all have no objection, then let's listen to Dameng." Du's mother did it without hesitation. Her daughter was educated and must know more than her.

She is a person of the new era and is determined not to be a feudal patriarch. She respects her children's choices.

At the same time, she secretly thought in her heart that when she put this job in front of her two sisters-in-law, she would see if they dared to be sarcastic to her.

In fact, her parents' home gave her some food subsidies, and she would also give some of the money saved at home to her parents' home. Basically, she did not take advantage of her parents' home, but her two sisters-in-law always felt that she had taken great advantage.

Du Weihai suppressed the upward curve of his lips. He had wanted to help his second brother's family for a long time, but unfortunately he didn't have the ability.

The main reason was that he could barely support his sons. Now that he had this job, he could finally go back home.

"All of you should study hard. Don't go to school with your eyes wide open while keeping your brains at home." Mother Du stared at the third, fourth and fifth children viciously. She had no idea what these brats looked like.

My daughter’s eyes used to be bright when she came home from school, but these days they are blank.

Especially the weird old fifth one, who used to hate going to school the most, but these days he has been complaining about why school hasn't started yet.

What? Don’t think she doesn’t know what Lao Wu is thinking. He just doesn’t want to make a matchbox!

The three brothers immediately started working hard, fearing that it would be too late and they would not get any meat tonight.

"Okay, let's have braised pork tonight." Mother Du glanced at her sons with satisfaction. None of them was rebellious, which was very good.

……

Du Yimeng took out the basket of wild grapes and asked Du Yidong to return it. She had just brought a large basin of wild grapes to the pool when the third and fourth children came over.

"Sister, you've worked all day, so take a break. I'll do the washing." The third brother said as he started.

"Sister, you don't have to do this little thing yourself. Leave it to me and my third brother." The fourth brother pushed Du Yimeng aside.

"When I get my salary, I will buy a pen for each of you." Du Yimeng said. Her younger brothers were so hardworking, she couldn't let them down. Her words made the two brothers' eyes sparkle.

"Sister, I want a Hero brand pen. I heard that the quality is very good and it can be used for many years." The fourth child said that there was a classmate in their class who had a Hero brand pen. At most, he would let people look at it from a distance and would not let them touch it. He was very envious.

"Fourth brother, mom said you are not allowed to ask your sister for things." The third brother said disapprovingly.

The fourth child subconsciously looked towards the small kitchen. Only then did he remember that the distance was a bit far and his mother didn't hear it.

After a while, the overbearing aroma of braised pork filled the air, and you could smell it from a long distance away. Many children cried out for more, clamoring for more meat. Not only the children, but even the adults couldn't help but swallow their saliva.

Many people cursed in their hearts, saying that the Du family was not a good family. They were either fish or meat. Did they ever consider the feelings of people like them?

After dinner, Du Yimeng moved the dried wild grapes into her small room. She was afraid that her mother's heart would not be able to bear it if she did this outside.

She found a large clay pot, filled it with a layer of wild grapes and a layer of sugar. To be honest, if this happened in later times, it would be normal to make some wine by yourself. But in this era of hunger, sugar is a luxury, and what she did was simply a waste of money.

In fact, Du's mother was not calm outside either. She kept working, but her eyes looked towards Du Yimeng's room from time to time.

Da Meng took a large earthenware jar and brought the wild grapes into the room. No one knew what he was doing.

Even if that thing is pickled, it can’t be made into pickled cabbage. By the way, did Dameng get the salt?

Moreover, her eyelids have been twitching since just now, and her heart is beating wildly. She almost suspects that she is sick.

It took an hour for Du Yimeng to prepare all the wild grapes and seal the large earthenware jar.

As soon as she left the room, everyone's eyes fell on her. She paused, pretended to be calm, and went out to wash her hands.

"Why do I smell a sweet scent?" Lao Wu asked with a puzzled look on his face.

Du Yimeng, who had just walked out of the door, paused again. Does Lao Wu have a dog nose?

He can even smell the sweetness. Is he trying to go to heaven?

"All that braised pork today can't stop you from eating. I've never heard of anyone being able to smell sweetness." The fourth child glared at the fifth child. The word "sweet" suddenly reminded him of the candy his sister gave him that day. He wanted to eat it...

"Braised pork...Mom, can we still eat braised pork tomorrow?" Lao Wu's eyes lit up when he heard the word "braised pork". He really hoped that he could eat braised pork every day.

Du's mother: ...
