Dressed to be a grandmother

Chapter 356

Tired of drinking?

"This, this..." Liu Lan wanted to say, this is malted milk, do you know what it is?

"It's malted milk!"

Liu Lan repeated, seeing Li Jia's indifferent expression, she looked down at the malted milk essence in her hand suspiciously.

That's right, it's malted milk. People in the city are reluctant to buy malted milk, let alone eat it. How come they don't get any envy in a remote village in the countryside?
"I know, we all know!" Li Jia: "Comrade Liu Lan, your kindness is appreciated, our aunt appreciates it, you can go to eat quickly."

Just kidding, the one who eagerly wants to recognize our aunt as a daughter sends things to her aunt every now and then, such as malted milk, there are five or six cans in half a year, and fifteen or six cans in a year, and my aunt doesn't touch it much. Still miss your half can of malted milk?

Not to mention malted milk, imported milk powder, raisins from far away, beef jerky from Inner Mongolia, which is said to be yak meat, and has been sent to our aunt a few times, needless to say other things, what is so rare about our aunt I haven't eaten anything!

Just half a can of malted milk, you look great.

Who do you look down on!

Seemingly echoing Li Jia's words, Xiao Hei came down with a bamboo basket in his mouth, and there was a sound of ding ding dong dong from inside.

Because there are at least ten or eight empty cans of malted milk in the bamboo basket.

At this time, seeing Liu Lan's dumbfounded look, Li Jia couldn't help laughing, her chin was too high, and said lightly: "Comrade Liu Lan, you should take this half can of malted milk back, save it for yourself, and go to work in the fields." It’s okay for us, but it’s tough for you guys, drink more yourself.”

After finishing speaking, Li Jia ignored Liu Lan and hurriedly lined up to get dinner.

Holding half a can of malted milk, Liu Lan froze in place, and didn't respond for a while. It was Zhao Mingjun who came over and called, and she went to line up for dinner.

Liu Lan, who had always been proud of her family's good conditions, was hit hard this time.

No one in the city had ever drank malted milk like this before, but Bai Xi, a country girl, was actually tired of drinking it, so why didn't she feel discouraged.

Liu Lan had no doubt that he was tired of drinking this word. People in Niuluo Village could get tired of eating eggs, chicken, duck and meat all at once, so it was not surprising that Bai Xi was tired of drinking malted milk.

Many people saw this scene, Wang Lijuan and the others saw that Liu Lan had returned home, so naturally they didn't have any thoughts, but they calmed down for a few days.

It seems that the advantages of their urbanites have not been reflected in Niuluo Village, which is very frustrating.

The day the autumn harvest ends.

Bai Xi distributed a hundred watermelons to the village, one for each household, and one for the educated youth points, and the rest were used as rewards for those who performed well in the autumn harvest. This selection was collectively selected by the village, Bai Xi It doesn't matter.

Bai Xi asked Li Youcai and Chen Youfu to buy this watermelon from a non-staple food store. After all, there are chickens and ducks sold to the non-staple food store, so it is not a problem to buy some watermelon.

Eating the big watermelon, the villagers were very happy, but the educated youths were both happy and complicated.

Before seeing the big watermelon being moved to the ancestors of the Bai family, I thought that Bai Xi wanted to eat alone again. Who would have thought that within two days, Bai Xi would order it to be delivered. It was only four months since he went to the countryside, and he was eating eggs and eating eggs. They eat chicken and duck, and now they also eat watermelon, even in the city, they have never eaten like this.

Looking at it this way, they knew how to do it, and that was a small belly.

Bai Xi knew about the reduction in autumn harvest, but when the total came out and Chen Daliu came to report, Bai Xi also fell silent.

"Grandma, our village is like this, other villages, I'm afraid it will be even more difficult." Chen Daliu said worriedly: "In two days, someone will definitely come to borrow food."

Bai Xi also understands that after all, there are only married people in the village, and there are also married people from other villages. If this big girl and young daughter-in-law go to Niuluo Village to borrow food, the villagers will not refuse to borrow food because of this relationship.

But there is not much food in the village that can be distributed. An adult's annual ration is at least more than 300 catties, which is still the lowest standard.

After the autumn harvest was handed in, the remaining millet was distributed, and each person was less than 120 catties, which was still in the shell.

The ravages of locusts have made it impossible to see even the roots of wild vegetables on the mountain, so don't even think about making money from the mountain.

Whether to borrow food or not, the people in Niuluo Village would all go hungry under the current situation.

"I brought three hundred catties of rice yesterday." Bai Xi said.

Her three hundred catties were still freshly shelled rice. Even though the village was already like this, they never thought of depriving her of food and drink, which made Bai Xi's heart warm and sour.

Chen Daliu smiled: "How much my aunt can eat alone, this is what should be given to my aunt, so it's not worth mentioning." It should have been an extra two hundred catties, but the current situation in the village has made my aunt wronged.

"I'll think of a way."

"Grandma, don't worry, it's really nothing. No matter how hard it was before, we all got through it."

Chen Daliu was afraid that Bai Xi would be worried, so he pretended not to care and comforted him.

No one can do anything about the lack of food, everything that should be harvested in the field is harvested, no matter how powerful my aunt is, she can't make it out of thin air, right?

Chen Daliu was just used to coming over and chatting with Bai Xi. In his subconscious mind, it was useless to tell anyone in the village about these things, but his aunt was different. He felt better after talking to his aunt.

After saying a few words, Chen Daliu continued to report to Bai Xi some plans for this winter.

I didn't tell Bai Xi about these things before, but since Bai Xi showed a lot of abilities, the villagers habitually wanted to listen to Bai Xi's decision at any time, in order to go well and have comfort in their hearts.

Speaking of going through the winter, Bai Xi naturally couldn't forget to ask about her orders.

"Did I bring back all the cloth I purchased?"

Chen Daliu: "Grandma, the cloth was put into storage yesterday, and I will distribute it to the villagers in two days' time."

Speaking of this, Chen Daliu's face swept away the sorrow just now, and became happy.

"Grandma, I never expected that our village would have so much income this year." After listening to Wang Lei's words, Chen Daliu didn't come back to his senses for a long time.

The water for the reservoirs in each village is paid off with labor, but there is no money in the account.The brick kilns used to be mainly used in the villages, that is, they have only recently sold bricks to the villages to build biogas tanks and farms. After deducting the cost, they actually made a small profit of 500 yuan.

There are also eggs, chickens and ducks from the farm in the village. So far, excluding the money for buying ducks, they have earned nearly 5000 yuan.

Think about it, in Niuluo Village, the income of the whole village in ten years did not add up to 1000 yuan.

The corners of Bai Xi's mouth curled up when he heard this, and he said happily, "It will get better and better in the future."

What is this, trivial!
