052 Chinese New Year (1)

In the evening, Qin Huairu's house.

Jia Zhang held the soles of her shoes again and again and kept saying, "I meant what I said. I didn't mean to stop you from taking a step forward."

"I know it's difficult for you to support your whole family with just one person's salary."

"Hey, I need to find a man to come in. I can live a more comfortable life these days."

"I am the biggest burden in this family. I want to die even though I am here, but she can't die. Alas~"

As she spoke, Jia Zhang stopped what she was doing, looked at Qin Huairu's back and said, "Do you want to send me back to my hometown in the countryside?"

Qin Huairu said with tears: "I didn't say that."

Jia Zhang: "Yes, you didn't say that, but it doesn't necessarily mean you don't think so."

Qin Huairu paused and said, "Did I say I wanted to find a man?"

Jia Zhang: "Everyone comes here when they are young. You can't hide what you are thinking from me."

"My uncle has no children, and my wife cannot have children. He has a purpose for being nice to you. He wants to celebrate the New Year with us. In front of so many people in the hospital, it's such an eyesore. You have to drag a heartless person along with you."

Silly Zhu and an apprentice act as light bulbs, and I feel like a bright mirror."

Qin Huairu: "You just treat other people's kindness as a donkey's liver and lungs. I'm not that kind of person at all."

Jia Zhang: "Come on, I've crossed more bridges than you have walked. People don't do things when they have no intention, and widows don't have money."

Qin Huairu: "Then why didn't you talk about Shazhu? Shazhu treats our family better than anyone else."

.........

When Lin Fan went out to use the bathroom at night and passed by Qin Huairu's house, he vaguely heard the sound of Qin Huairu arguing with her mother-in-law.

I looked around and saw that no one was in the yard at this time. When I went out just now, I didn't see anyone in my yard going to the toilet.

Lin Fan slowly got closer and heard Qin Huairu say Silly Zhu.

Then I heard Jia Zhang’s words again: “Why don’t you call him stupid?”

Qin Huairu: "You have no conscience."

Jia Zhang: "Who are you talking about? Do you still want to celebrate the New Year?"

Then Lin Fan heard movement and footsteps inside.

Lin Fan reacted quickly and slipped away quickly but lightly.

Lin Fan finally understood this conversation. It was probably Jia Zhang who was giving Qin Huairu some advice.

"It seems that Mrs. Jia Zhang saw the first uncle giving Qin Huairu white noodles, and then Mrs. Jia Zhang wanted to say a few words, for fear that Qin Huairu would find a man to send her to the countryside."

Lin Fan immediately understood this when he returned to the house.

It seems that Qin Huairu is thinking about shrinking back again, Qin Jingru is still going to the city.

There is a plan again, Xu Damao's affairs will be brought forward.

Just wait, Lin Fan will wait for that day to arrive.

the next day.

Lin Fan didn't get up until eight or nine in the morning. It was New Year's Eve today.

After waking up, Lin Fan stretched out, looked at his watch, and got up.

I also bought a lot of new year's goods yesterday. Today I'll go to the supply and marketing cooperative to buy some firecrackers and the like.

After breakfast, Lin Fan strolled out while pushing his bicycle.

After riding for about ten minutes, Lin Fan arrived at the supply and marketing cooperative, which is considered to be a relatively complete supply and marketing cooperative nearby.

After parking his bicycle, Lin Fan walked into the supply and marketing cooperative.

Looking at the things on the shelf, Lin Fan was also very greedy. He had money, but he was too ambitious to buy but not able to afford it.

No votes.

Looking at the white rabbit, Lin Fan also wanted to eat it, but he bought some yesterday and ran out of tickets today, as well as the golden chicken biscuits, lard candy and red shrimp cakes.

Lin Fan almost drooled at the sight.

Alas~

Can't buy it.

However, Lin Fan also noticed the Cuban candy, which did not require a vote, and was dark brown.

Cuban sugar, as the name suggests, is the sugar imported from Cuba. It is a kind of coarse sugar, which is unrefined raw sugar. It has low purity, many impurities, high water content, and light yellow color. After processing, the color and taste are similar to brown sugar.

In order to support Cuba's economic construction, China has imported 400,000 tons of raw sugar from Cuba every year since 1961, when the United States imposed economic sanctions on Cuba.

Since then, Cuban sugar has entered the lives of hundreds of millions of Chinese people and has become closely related to Chinese people’s lives.

More than 40 years have passed, and China is still importing Cuban sugar. Every year, freighters carrying Cuban sugar dock at Shekou Port, Tianjin Port, and Qingdao Port, but they must undergo deep processing by domestic sugar refineries before they can be distributed to the market.

At present, Cuban sugar still appears in our lives, but it is no longer called Cuban sugar.

It’s just that in later generations, children had many types of snacks, and Cuban candy is no longer popular among children.

But now Cuban sugar is a good thing.

Lard candy looks very greasy on the outside, and it also has a greasy feeling when you eat it.

But this candy actually tastes very good and is not greasy at all, so it is very popular among people.

However, this candy has been discontinued in later generations, and you can no longer eat it if you want.

Lin Fan could only eat it once when he was a child. He thought it tasted better than any other candy. In this age where oil and water are not available, this candy is even more popular than the White Rabbit.

"Hey, comrade, bring me two pounds of Cuban sugar."

Lin Fan bought two kilograms of Cuban sugar. Although this sugar is very rough and does not taste very good, at least it is sugar and has a sweet taste.

Buy it back and share it with the children in the yard during the Chinese New Year, so as to enjoy the joy of the Chinese New Year.

I will keep those white rabbits and biscuits for myself and my future wife.

By the way, I also bought two kilograms of peach cakes that were free of charge.

It's not that Lin Fan doesn't want to buy more, but the people in the supply and marketing cooperative don't want to sell more. These things are very popular now, and there aren't many left in the supply and marketing cooperative, and there are still many people who want to buy them later.

If Lin Fan bought this, what would the others behind him buy?

Then he bought a few thousand-ring firecrackers and a few small cannons. The very loud ones cost five cents each, which cost Lin Fan a total of ten yuan.

These supply and marketing cooperatives near the courtyard can also be purchased, so Lin Fan didn't buy more. He just went to buy them after they were sold out.

rich.

Satisfied, Lin Fan went back with his things.

At this time, Yi Zhonghai and Yan Bugui were posting Spring Festival couplets outside the gate of the courtyard.

Yi Zhonghai held the paste in his hand, looked at the Spring Festival couplets posted on the wall and praised: "His handwriting is really good, the third uncle, the more he looks at it, the more he appreciates it."

When Yan Bugui heard Yi Zhonghai praising his handwriting, he couldn't smile anymore. He looked at his own handwriting and said: "The handwriting is like the person, and the writing is like the person. According to the old saying, you can know the person by seeing the words without seeing the person."

Eight points.”

Yi Zhonghai smiled after hearing this and didn't say anything. He kept everything in silence.

Just as the two were packing up and preparing to go back, Xu Damao came back pushing his bicycle.

Looking at Xu Damao, Yan Bugui's face was full of smiles. The smile on Yi Zhonghai's face disappeared, and he looked meaningfully at Xu Damao and the things on his bicycle.

"First uncle, third uncle."

Yan Bugui heard the sound, turned around and saw Xu Damao, and said, "Da Mao, your life is quite busy now."

Xu Damao chuckled and said, "I go to the countryside every day to show movies to people."

After some exchanges, Xu Damao gave Yan Bugui a bunch of mushrooms, but Yi Zhonghai confiscated them.

Seeing Xu Damao go in, Yan Bugui wanted to talk about Xu Damao, but Yi Zhonghai interrupted directly and said: "Third uncle, go in, I still have some red paper, see who hasn't written anything, and then

Could you please write a few pairs?"

Yan Bugui stared at the mushroom in his hand and said: "It takes a little effort, just a little polish on the pen."
