So far, Pauline has spent a total of 18 yuan and 39 cents. Originally, Li Ting and her mother gave her 20 yuan and [-] cents. Now after buying so many things, only [-] yuan and [-] cents are left. point.

Touching the more than 20 yuan in her hand, Pauline had to sigh that the money at this time was really valuable. It was only more than 30 yuan, which was enough to buy two catties of pork in her previous life. Now she has bought so many things and still has more than 20 yuan left.

Paulin put the ten yuan piece in the drawer of the space cabinet, and put the remaining change of one yuan, two yuan, one cent and five cents on the top of the cupboard. .

This time, after Pauline bought the meat and bones, she went straight to the place where she bought the potatoes.

The first batch of potatoes, Pauline bought very well, 25 catties, a total of seventy-five cents, Pauline took more than half of it and put it into the space, so that the basket would not be too heavy, and she was too tired to carry it.

The second potato, as soon as Pauline walked there, she found that the person was no longer there, and it should have been bought by someone else.

Although she was a little disappointed, Paulin knew that this was normal. She was walking around alone with a bag on her back. The soy bean seller she had seen before was still there. There are worm eyes, but there are no worms in them. There are worm eyes on soybeans, which is normal. Paulin bought all of them for [-] cents a pound. The total was [-] jin and [-] taels, and the total was [-] cents.

The sun-dried peas and broad bean Paulin also bought ten kilograms each, five cents a kilogram each, and spent one piece, which was saved for space.

These two things were also planted in Shanghe Village. The whole family of Lao Wang’s family shared a total of about [-] jin. Unfortunately, it was divided before the family split.

Peas and broad beans are delicious and sweet when they are young, and the yield is good. Every winter, the team will plant peas and broad beans in half of the fields. When they are collected and dried, they can be distributed to the team members. , Arrived in a spring drought.

The old peas and broad beans are very durable after being sun-dried, and they are stored in a jar without attracting insects. After soaking in water and cooking, the taste is also very good, very full, but the skin is a little thick, but it is not The big problem, after all, even bran is reluctant to feed chickens at this time, what is this pea and broad bean skin?

After collecting these [-] kilograms of peas and broad beans, Paulin wandered aimlessly. Now it's the busiest time for Daji. Basically, everyone who will come to Daji today is here.

Bao Lin also saw several aunts and aunts from Shanghe Village. After politely saying hello, she flashed away through the flow of people.

After wandering around, Pauline still returned to the place where the food was sold. Unexpectedly, she saw another potato seller here.

Paulin hurried up and asked the price, which was also three points, twenty pounds on the scale, sixty cents in total.

After paying the payment, Pauline's whole body was only 18 yuan and fifty-seven cents. Pauline just wanted to carry the sack and put it in the back basket, but a hand came in from the side and held the sack down.

Looking up, it turned out to be the old lady of the Li family, Paulin was very puzzled, what did she want to do?
It can't be a public robbery in public!
Seeing to see Paulin's doubts, Mrs. Li rubbed her hands together and said to Paulin with a smile: "Well, Paulin's niece, the aunt's family has no food to cook, this. Look, this bag of potatoes can I can't give it to my aunt, help me."

"We're all a family, and we don't say anything foreign. The aunt will tell you straight. Since the thief's house was stolen by the thief, those days were like soaking in bitter water."

When Mrs. Li said this, she recalled the scene she saw when she returned home that day a month ago. It was a source of sadness.

"I didn't eat, I didn't wear clothes, I took a few children in the family up the mountain to dig wild vegetables to fill their stomachs. Yesterday, I accidentally fell, and I almost didn't tell this old bone there."

"My aunt is suffering. I haven't had a good life in my life. When I get old, and I suffer such a crime again, I can't live any longer."

After talking, Mrs. Li sat down and patted her thighs crying.

"God's eyes are closed, why didn't you take me there!"

If other little girls are robbed by this old lady Li crying, she may really get her wish, but obviously, Paulin is not!

Paulin ignored Mrs. Li at first, but picked up the potatoes and put them in her own basket.

Mrs. Li watched the food fly, and she was in a hurry. She wanted to stand up to stop it, and put the food in her own basket, but she couldn't. If she did this, it would be a clear grab.

Afterwards, Paulin put down the basket, walked over to Mrs. Li, gave her a hand, and helped her up.

"Auntie, you are real about my family's situation. Now that there is no food at all, I only eat pure wild vegetable soup in the morning. What is this worth? Now I'm almost hungry and unconscious."

"Today's big show, my parents didn't come. I was hungry and earned work points at home. I came here alone to buy food. Who would have thought that I only saw one after shopping for so long. This potato is my family's ration for two months. Well, it's impossible to say anything."

The people who were eating melons around them felt that they could hardly eat it. This scene was exciting enough.

Saying that, Pauline patted her head as if she had remembered something.

"By the way, Aunt Li, I just heard you say that, life is so sad, is it because your son and daughter-in-law Li Qiang and Xu Xiuying are not good to you, and forcing you at home will make you have this idea of ​​not wanting to live."

Paulin took Mrs. Li's hand and said sadly, "No food, no clothes, and I have to work and dig wild vegetables every day. Auntie, you are suffering. Say it and let everyone decide for you."

"I don't believe that there is no Wang Fa. Li Qiang and Xu Xiuying dare to abuse the elderly like this. I believe the government and the country will not let them go."

After listening to Bao Lin's words, the people around seemed to suddenly realize, and persuaded Mrs. Li.

"Old lady, go to the commune to find a cadre and call the shots for you."

"Yeah, raising children to prevent old age, it's really unfilial to let you suffer like this when you're getting old!"

"Yes, this unfilial thing, you have to report him and let him know that he is powerful, so that he will not dare to bully you in the future."

"Yeah, if you want to go to the commune and leave it alone, then go to the county seat to find the leader and the police, and someone will always call the shots for you."

"You can also go to the Women's Federation. This is to protect the rights and interests of our women. When the time comes, let the cadres of the Women's Federation talk to them and let them know how powerful they are."

Listening to the enthusiastic person next to him talking about countermeasures and not giving Mrs. Li a chance to speak at all, a smile flashed in Paulin's eyes, trying to trick her, dreaming!

This old lady has a dark heart!If she really didn't want to live and did something to send herself away, Pauline must set firecrackers for her on the table.

It's a pity, the scourge has been left for thousands of years, and she cherishes her life!
