The Sweetness of the Seventies

Chapter 15 Hunger, work points, food

Village Chief Qi's father had a good relationship with Uncle Qi, and Aunt Qi always gave him delicious food when he was a child. Now that Aunt Qi is getting older, it would be nice to have someone to accompany her, which can also alleviate the housing pressure in the educated youth spot. Moreover, this new educated youth girl is hard-working, lovable, and kind-hearted. If she is given a better accommodation environment, she will be treated as such. He reciprocated the favor.

He Tiantian didn't want to share a room with Huang Jingli and Lin Xiaoru. She can live in a big room at Grandma Qi San's house. Whatever you want to do, don't worry about being seen by others.

"Thank you, grandma." He Tiantian said crisply. Although grandma Qi San's ingredients are not good, she is of high seniority and is a bit thin in the village. Living in Grandma Qi San's house, no one in the village would bully her.

Hearing that He Tiantian didn't have to share a room with them, Huang Jingli and Lin Xiaoru were very happy, and they were even more kind to He Tiantian.

As for Li Mingkai, he had made a small calculation in his mind. Huang Jingli and Lin Xiaoru had one room, so he could have one room alone. It's nice not to have to share a room with others.

Grandma Qi San’s house is the third house in the second row at the entrance of the village. The yard is large, the house is not small, and there is a large vegetable garden at the door.

Qi Ergou carried Grandma Qi San in, while Huang Jingli and Lin Xiaoru helped He Tiantian salute her.

"Tiantian, if you have anything to do, come over to our place and tell us." Huang Jingli said with a smile, why Tiantian is so strong, they can also be lazy when working together in the future. Now He Tiantian takes the initiative to live in a fellow villager's house, saving them space, and they appreciate this kindness.

"Thank you, Sister Xiaoru, Sister Jingli." He Tiantian said, "I will trouble you if anything happens."

Village Chief Qi was also tired, so he arranged for Grandma Qi and said to several people: "You go back and put down your luggage and go to the village branch to get this month's food and food stamps."

When they heard that they could receive food and food stamps, several people's eyes lit up and they could have a good meal at noon.

"Thank you, Village Chief Qi." Several people thanked Village Chief Qi. They no longer had the arrogance they had before. From now on, what they eat will be in the hands of others. They have no confidence and are so arrogant!

Village Chief Qi went to the village branch, and Qi Ergou sent Huang Jingli and others to the place where the Tutu Temple was converted.

He Tiantian did not pack her things, but found the wooden basin used by Grandma Qi San for washing her face, brought a towel over, washed Grandma Qi San, and changed into clean clothes.

"Grandma Qi, come and wash your face." He Tiantian smiled and said. The water in the large tank outside was warmed by the sun and was not cold. It could be used to wipe the body.

Grandma Qi San was happy, this girl had made the right choice.

"I'm sorry to trouble you," Grandma Qi San said, "Girl, what's your name?"

"My name is He Tiantian. Grandma can just call me Tiantian." He Tiantian replied, "My home is in Nanshi. I will have to take care of Grandma Qi from now on."

Nanshi?

If my son hadn't gone to Nanshi to go to school, maybe he wouldn't have disappeared, right?

No one can be seen in life, no body in death!

Hey, I don’t think about it anymore. The more I think about it, the more uncomfortable I feel.

"Good boy, you haven't had lunch yet. There are vegetable pancakes I made for lunch in the cupboard next door. Eat some quickly to cushion your stomach." Grandma Qi San said, asking He Tiantian to eat something. This girl has a good heart, is quick at work, and does not dislike her as an old woman. She will keep this girl and be her companion no matter what.

She had been alone for too long, staying in an empty home, feeling too lonely. In recent years, my strength has become increasingly weak, and I hope there is someone by my side to help me.

He Tiantian was indeed hungry. She washed her hands and opened the cupboard, and saw two vegetable pancakes inside, which were probably Grandma Qi San's dinner. He Tiantian was not polite. She ate vegetable cakes, and after receiving the food, she made delicious food for Grandma Qi San in the evening.

After dinner, He Tiantian poured a glass of boiling water in front of Grandma Qi San's bed and said, "Grandma, I ate those two vegetable pancakes. Now I'm going to the village branch to get food. I'll make something for you tonight." food."

"Go ahead, I won't be polite to you either." Grandma Qi San smiled, drinking the water He Tiantian poured and feeling comfortable in her heart.

He Tiantian went out and went to the old village branch according to his memory.

The old village branch has six large houses next to the threshing floor. Four of them are usually used to store grain. The other two large rooms have two tables and a few chairs. This is the village branch.

When He Tiantian arrived, Huang Jingli, Lin Xiaoru, and Li Mingkai had already arrived.

"Okay, you are all here. Let's distribute food now. According to the county notice, an educated youth has ten catties of coarse grain noodles, ten catties of rice, ten catties of corn, two catties of soybeans, two catties of food stamps, and two feet of cloth stamps a month. , two taels of salt coupons, and two taels of oil coupons." Village Chief Qi distributed the things and put them on the table.

These things are barely enough to eat, not enough to eat, but not enough to starve to death.

"Thank you very much, Village Chief Qi." Huang Jingli said. She had no job in her hometown town and couldn't make any money. She could only get fifteen kilograms of food supply a month, so she couldn't eat enough. Now she weighs more than thirty pounds, which can greatly improve her life.

After loading the tickets and these people were about to leave, Village Chief Qi said: "You have just arrived, so you probably don't know the situation in the village yet. Now you have a day off and get familiar with the village. You will start work the day after tomorrow. By then I will let the educated youths from the past take care of you. You will get work points later. In the future, food and various tickets will be distributed based on centimeters. If you work more, you will get more points. If you work less, you will get less points. There is no difference between life and death.”

"Village Chief Qi, don't worry. We support rural construction, and we are not afraid of hardship or fatigue." Huang Jingli said, making her position clear. You can't eat for free anywhere, and eating while working is a matter of course.

"We understand, Village Chief Qi." Lin Xiaoru said, if others can do it, she can do it too.

Li Mingkai also nodded. There are many kinds of jobs. If he offends the village party secretary, he will suffer the consequences if he is assigned dirty work in the future.

Village Chief Qi felt a little disdainful. These educated youths were nice to talk to and would complain when it was time to work. But I won’t complain for a long time. If you don’t work, you won’t get cents. If you don’t work, you won’t get food. If you don’t have food, you will go hungry. These educated youths will work honestly after experiencing the discomfort of being hungry.

Because hunger is more terrible than fatigue!

After taking the things, He Tiantian followed the three of them back to the village.

He Tiantian is not hungry, but Huang Jingli, Lin Xiaoru, and Li Mingkai haven't had lunch yet, so they hurried back to the educated youth point.

He Tiantian put the grain in the storage room, picked up the broom and swept the yard cleanly. There are cucumbers, tomatoes, and beans in the vegetable garden at the door. I picked some and then pulled all the grass in the vegetable garden.

Seeing that it was getting cooler outside, He Tiantian took Grandma Qi San out of the house.

Yes, take it out. Now He Tiantian is very strong and can easily carry an 80-pound old lady.

"Grandma Qi, it's stuffy in the house, but it's cool outside." He Tiantian put Grandma Qi San on a chair outside. It was already past three o'clock in the afternoon. There were more shade trees in the yard, and the breeze blew, bringing coolness. A comfortable coolness.

"Haha, thank you for being here, otherwise no one would take care of me as an old woman." Grandma Qi San sighed, feeling extremely melancholy.

This is the sorrow of being childless!

No one knows whether her son is alive or dead!

With a lot of help, my collection finally stumbled past 300.
