Daily life of female supporting actresses in the 1970s

Wang Haiyang was not aware of these things. He arrived one day later than Jiang Yanqiu and the others, and the assignments had already been made when he arrived.

The male educated youth were responsible for firewood and water, while the female educated youth were responsible for cooking.

When Jiang Yanqiu first came, she was also very delicate, and he thought she couldn't cook. After a long time, the "chef" was assigned to wash dishes.

But now Tian Cheng and Xu Yan’s cooking skills are both pretty good, much better than Zhao Lanlan’s.

Xu Yan and Tian Cheng were not afraid of trouble and always cooked two dishes, one light and one spicy.

It can be said that it takes all aspects into consideration, but it is also troublesome because of the big differences in diet between the north and the south.

After the two left, Jiang Yanqiu counted the supplies, including winter hats, clothes, shoes, and quilts.

In addition, there were 50 kilograms of rice, 50 kilograms of flour, and a barrel of about 10 kilograms of soybean oil.

There were also five or six meters of white and black Dacron cloth, five meters of white cotton cloth, fifteen meters of blue homespun cloth, five pairs of nylon socks, two pairs of Liberation shoes, a large bundle of unevenly dyed wool, five bars of soap, five bars of scented soap, five boxes of violet vanishing cream, and a large roll of thick plastic oil paper.

A list of everything has been made, and except for the farm tools, everything she mentioned is there, so we don't have to worry about being cold this winter.

But money in this era is really valuable and its purchasing power is really great.

But what surprised her the most was that the ginseng this time was also the same as before. It seems that she needs to learn more about identifying herbs in the future. If she didn’t have the golden finger, she wouldn’t be able to recognize the ginseng this time.

Although people are now resisting traditional Chinese medicine and advocating Western medicine, Western medicine is in short supply and hard to buy.

The purchase price of medicinal herbs is not low either, at least more expensive than mushrooms.

After putting the things away, Jiang Yanqiu cut the meat into small pieces and took out about ten pounds of meat from the space and mixed it in.

Fry it into jar meat and keep it there so it is convenient to eat whenever you want.

After finishing the sorting, he took out the letter that Wang Haiyang brought back and read it. It was written by the original owner's eldest sister Jiang Mingzhu, so he asked her if she was okay.

Then he sent five kilograms of cotton coupons and six feet of cloth coupons. The cloth coupons were exchanged by Jiang Mingzhu, and the cotton coupons were sent by his eldest brother Jiang Kaijie.

The winter in Northeast China is cold, so I asked her to make a suitable cotton coat. As for the money, I won’t send it to her even if she has it.

It goes without saying that the eldest brothers Jiang Kaijie and Jiang Mingzhu are very caring towards their younger siblings.

This period is considered the slack season for farmers, and the main work is to harvest hemp and ferment the hemp stalks in water pools on the land.

The hemp is fermented for one to two months before being fished out and peeled. Some of it is kept in the village and some is sent to the textile factory.

The soil dug out from the bubbles of retting hemp can be used to fertilize the soil.

Shanshui Village has quite a lot of economic crops, including hemp and hundreds of acres of sugar beets.

Most of the peanuts, potatoes and sweet potatoes were also taken away.

I don’t know why the village can’t even afford a tractor, and there is only one collective cow.

The others were privately owned. Villagers had to pay work points for using other people's private cattle and horses. When grain was distributed at the end of the year, the cattle and horses received not only fodder but also grain.

If an unmarried man's family had private cattle or horses, the matchmaker would flatten the threshold of his house.

This period is considered the slack season for farmers, and people are given early breaks from time to time or simply a day off to go up the mountain to pick mushrooms and prepare firewood for the winter.

There was no mandatory requirement to go up to the sky, and Jiang Yanqiu also helped everyone prepare firewood.

Firewood is a big project in Northeast China. In winter, the fireplace and kang must be lit at home.

Relatively speaking, the most people go to the mountains to pick mountain products. Jiang Yanqiu goes to the mountains to pick mushrooms with Aunt Chen and Aunt Yang from time to time.

Fresh mushrooms can also be sent to the village office in exchange for work points, which is more cost-effective than sending them to a purchasing station, and you don’t have to dry them yourself.

Jiang Yanqiu and Zhao Lanlan took the vegetables to the village office in exchange for work points, and kept the others for themselves.

As long as it is kept, it is estimated that there are special channels.

As for the black market, Jiang Yanqiu never thought about going there!

Most of the people who end up in the black market have nowhere else to go.

Money comes quickly, but kills are also quick.

Those who control the black market are even more complicated, and they all have strong backgrounds.

If there is any movement, they will immediately pounce on it like a cat smelling fish.

If you don't have a backer, you are no match for them. Having strength is useless unless you become a tool for them to make money.

The unlucky heroine Gu Qingqing in the book almost fell into the hands of black market people several times. If it weren't for Gu Qingshi to clean up the mess and protect her, nine lives would not be enough for her.

Gu Qingshi almost died once.

Qiao Lei and Lin Xiaomei are able to be successful only because the male protagonists are there to protect them.

There is no end to making money. Without connections, you might even lose your life. Especially since reselling grain is a serious crime. If you get caught, you don't have to eat peanuts.

Pick some mushrooms and medicinal herbs and exchange them for money at the purchasing station, and earn some work points to exchange for food. In this special era, it is important to save your own life.

There will be plenty of opportunities to make money after you graduate from college. Anyway, housing prices don’t rise all of a sudden.

Now it’s enough as long as I have enough money and am safe.

During the time they were collecting mountain products, no one ever took them to the place where they had previously dug yams and picked pine cones, and Zhao Lanlan never mentioned it either.

Jiang Yanqiu just thought that the two places were too far away and it was not cost-effective to travel.

Recently, several male educated youth went hunting in the mountains but didn't get much.

Liu Yuanda was anxious. If this continued, when would he be able to save enough money to buy a job?

When he came back from the mountain at noon today, he heard that the cornfield on the west side of the mountain had been destroyed by blind bears again.

He also thought of the blind bear in the reed marsh. The blind bear's skin was not cheap, and the bear's paws were not cheap either.

So when he came back, he discussed with Lin Shaoyang and the others, "Why don't we go to the reed marsh together to look for the blind bear. If we can't find it, we can shoot some wild ducks and pick up some duck eggs."

Lin Shaoyang and Gu Qingshi have been feeling very depressed recently. It is not a good idea to rely on Gu Qingqing to pick up pheasants and rabbits for them to eat every day. It makes them look so incompetent.

After hearing Liu Yuanda's proposal, they also became interested, but the three of them did not dare to duel with a blind bear, so they called all the male educated youth to discuss it together.

Eight people fighting against a blind bear should be no problem, and everyone is very interested.

Tian Mi happened to hear what they were discussing. She also wanted to see what the black bear looked like, and if she was not allowed to go, she would go to the village office to report it.

Everyone followed her lead. In fact, everyone had a good impression of Tian Mi, and she immediately subdued the argumentative Lin Xiaomei.

In the past, Lin Xiaomei disliked everyone and everyone, and she was always arguing with one person or another.

Now, whenever she expressed dissatisfaction, Tian Mi would just snort and shut up immediately.

The educated youth site has finally become quiet.

As soon as Tian Mimi shouted, all the female educated youth knew about it and wanted to go together.

Gu Qingqing also wanted to get some stock to sell during the New Year. Now she was not short of money or tickets and she did not need them urgently, but she wanted to prepare for the future.

Qiao Lei also wanted to see if she could get other kinds of fish on the meadow.

The river in the village is full of either pike, carp or crucian carp. She is tired of eating them all and can't sell them at a good price.

Then I'll see if I can catch some wild ducks and raise them in the space. I can also buy some chicken eggs and goose eggs for the ducks to hatch chicks. After raising them in the space, they will have enough meat to eat.

Lin Xiaomei goes wherever Qiao Lei goes.

Tian Cheng didn't want to go, but since Gu Qingshi had gone, she wanted to go and take a look too.

Now that the letter from home has not arrived yet, they have no chance or excuse to get close to Gu Qingshi, so they have to find an opportunity themselves.

Xu Yan took a Seagull camera and went to take pictures.

Seeing that everyone was going, Zhao Lanlan called Jiang Yanqiu to join them.

So all the people from the educated youth site went there, carrying buckets, basins and baskets.
