Wear to the age!I take the space to eat and drink spicy food

Chapter 7 Lodging
There is a shortage of supplies, and there is an iron rice bowl at the end, no wonder his nostrils are upturned.

Chicken cakes and glutinous rice noodles are cheap, ranging from seventy to eighty cents, but the food stamps cost a tael more than red bean cakes, but the salesperson also said that red bean cakes are expensive foods, so it's not surprising.

At this time, things are still divided into high price and low price?
But how to divide high price and low price?

Jiang Xue was puzzled and continued to press the road.

Jiangcheng was neither too big nor too small. Jiang Xue had only walked around a third of the time before it got dark.

The west side of the city is said to be a factory, Jiang Xue looked at the darkened sky, forget it, let's look at it tomorrow.

There are fewer pedestrians on the street, and the long queue at the food station is gone. The state-run restaurant has a few more tables than at noon. It seems that there are more people eating out when they have just paid their wages on the [-]st.

But Jiang Xue passed by and only glanced at it. Seeing that the sky was getting darker, she couldn't help but feel a little worried. There is no overpass here. Could it be that she is going to sleep in the cornfield?

Sleeping for a day or two is fine, but not for a long time.

As for going to other cities, Jiang Xue knew without asking. Since this is the case in Jiangcheng, other cities must be similar.

Where do you go now, you don’t need a letter of introduction and proof. Without a letter of introduction, you can’t buy a train ticket.

Speaking of which, Jiang Xue was depressed again, she didn't have any money.

Just when the night was about to fall completely, Jiang Xue raised her feet and went out of the city.

Sanwa was squatting in front of the simple stove at the moment, the water in the small aluminum pot was boiling, he looked up at the grandma sitting on the bed, then at the millet in his hand, carefully grabbed a handful of millet and put it in pot.

After putting it away, smelling the rice fragrance floating out of the pot, Sanwa thought about it and grabbed another handful.

"Three baby." The woman sat on the bed, swallowed her saliva, and asked again: "Did that comrade really give you this millet?"

Sanwa nodded and put the millet bag together: "Yes. Grandma, my sister gave it to me."

As if afraid that grandma still had doubts, Sanwa said seriously again: "Grandma, if that sister didn't give it to me, where would I get the millet? These days, it's hard for people in the city to buy cornmeal with grain books."

Don't say grandma couldn't believe it, he couldn't believe it himself on the way back today.

Clutching her belly, she jogged all the way back. She couldn't help but look at it a few times when there was no one on the road. Now that the millet was cooking, and smelling the aroma of the rice, Sanwa was sure that she was not dreaming.

When the woman heard it, it was true that it was hard to find cornmeal, let alone such a good millet.

She thought of Jiang Xuelai again, that girl looked about seventeen or eighteen years old, she was fair and clean, she spoke well, she was polite, she was well dressed, she had never been hungry.

The most important thing is that she is kind-hearted. She helped her third child fetch water, and even gave her two catties of millet.

This is millet. These days, who would be willing to give such fine grains to strangers.

Originally, she thought that she would not have two days to live, but she did not expect to meet such a kind girl, God is so kind.

"Sanba, then don't use too much. Find time in the next two days to replace this millet with coarse grain." Two catties of millet won't last long, and if you replace it with brown rice mixed with wild vegetables, you can eat it longer.

"Hey, grandma, I see."

Sanwa hid the remaining millet in a good place in the house.In fact, it was still hidden at the head of the woman's bed, so in this room only things can be hidden on the bed.

He was just about to sit in front of the stove when there was a knock on the door.

The grandparents and grandchildren in the room were stunned for a moment, and they all looked at the door.

Sanwa swallowed her saliva, grabbed the firestick she used to poke and beat the fire, and said loudly, "Who?"

Since Jiang Xue knocked on the door, she made up her mind.

After all, she gave two catties of millet. Food is precious these days, so it's not too much for her to stay overnight.

Just listening to the nervous voice inside, she was still a little embarrassed: "Uh, ma'am, it's me."

When the knock on the door sounded, the woman subconsciously moved her body to block the place where Sanwa hid the millet just now. In the middle of the night, there was only such a little food, so she had to guard against it.

On the contrary, Sanwa was stunned for a moment, and soon came back to his senses. He recognized Jiang Xue's voice. After all, he brought Jiang Xue into the city and said a lot on the way.

The door opened quickly.

The only light in the house is the fire burning in the stove. If it weren't for the small size of the house, it really wouldn't be able to illuminate it.

Seeing Jiang Xue, the woman couldn't help pursing her lips. She subconsciously glanced at the millet that had been tumbling with the water in the pot, showing worry on her face.

Isn't this girl regretting it?
Two catties of millet is quite a lot, and it can be exchanged for more than ten or twenty catties for rough grains. It can be eaten sparingly with bran and some wild vegetables, and it will not be a problem to last for two months.

But just now, the grandson has already cooked two handfuls. If they are allowed to lose money, neither the grandson nor the grandson can afford it.

Jiang Xue didn't know the worry in the woman's heart. She looked at the little boy, glanced past the fire stick in his hand, then looked at the woman on the bed, and said embarrassedly: "Ma'am, I'm here to do something. Can I stay at your house for a night?"

Overnight?

The woman was taken aback for a moment, then recovered, and nodded quickly: "Yes, yes, of course."

"Comrade, it's cold outside, come in and enjoy the fire."

"Sanba, move a stool for comrade."

Hearing that she didn't come to ask for Xiaomi back, the woman breathed a sigh of relief.

The woman didn't ask Jiang Xue why she didn't live in a guest house. You must know that living in a guest house costs money.

Sanwa hurriedly invited Jiang Xue in as instructed, then closed the door, and specially inserted the bolt, even though the bolt couldn't withstand anything in Jiang Xue's opinion.

After Jiang Xue sat down by the fire, she saw that the grandparent and grandson hadn't had dinner yet.

She could tell at a glance that what was cooking in the pot was the millet she gave, but that's how much it was cooked for two people?
Enough for anyone to eat.

Xu Shi noticed Jiang Xue's gaze, and the woman said embarrassedly: "Comrade, Sanwa is ignorant, and I took two catties of millet from you, and I..."

Her face was full of shame and guilt. Wherever there was a road, they would collect two catties of millet. This was no different from a bandit, but the woman knew that the family ran out of food, and these two catties of millet were life-saving food.

Jiang Xue quickly waved her hand to interrupt the woman's words, and said, "Mother, don't say that. It's not easy these days, so I just helped you out. Don't take it too seriously."

Jiang Xue could say that she didn't expect to give two catties of millet, but instead gave herself an excuse to stay overnight.

The woman and Jiang Xue were chatting one after another, while Sanwa was obediently cooking beside her.

Occasionally, he would look up at Jiang Xue secretly, and then he was afraid of being discovered, so he hurriedly lowered his head.

The millet in the pot was almost cooked, Sanwa added two handfuls of wild vegetables and cooked it, then scooped up a bowl of millet and wild vegetable porridge, and handed it to Jiang Xue immediately.
