Chapter 274 Evolved
The supposedly good golden autumn and October ushered in bad news again. Although many people had been concerned about it before, when the news of the poor harvest of grain came out, it still caused an uproar.

It has been two consecutive years of poor harvests. Coupled with some special events at this time, people's life has become more and more difficult. The word "hungry" is not just a talk. This feeling of real hunger is unforgettable, and it is something that those who lose weight and abuse themselves in later generations cannot experience.

Li Jianhua has become more and more low-key. He doesn't dare to make delicious food in the courtyard now. Let alone cooking meat at this time, the smell of steamed buns can waft ten miles away. I don't know why people in this period seem to have evolved. In general, the noses are all spirits.

"Lily, I made two pieces of tofu, and I'll give one to Mama later." Li Jianhua opened the lunch box to reveal two pieces of white and tender tofu.

This is what he exchanged for soybeans from the tofu workshop. If you buy it, don’t even think about it. The shortage of tofu tickets is second only to meat tickets, and even more popular than meat tickets, because people can still see this tofu, but don’t even think about meat. .

Tofu tickets are not easy to get. Even Li Jianhua's aunt who works in a supply and marketing cooperative can't get a few tickets a month. Of course, if you exchange soybeans, there are not so many restrictions.

"Tofu! This is good! Let's make potato stewed tofu today." Yu Li's eyes lit up when she saw Tofu. Her husband is capable and can always bring back the shortage. The key is that he still takes good care of her natal family. Good things will want to send a copy.

"You don't have to do it. I'll keep the tofu for you tomorrow. I brought some vegetables and rice today. Let's reheat it." Li Jianhua waved his hand and said.

It was said before that Li was pregnant, so Li Jianhua had to ensure her nutrition. Since the smell of cooking was too strong, he cooked it in the space and put it in a lunch box. The smell of hot rice with the lid on would be much less.

If you are troublesome, just be troublesome, it is better than thinking that you have a good meal and provoke the crowds in the courtyard.The key is the gossip, Li Jianhua doesn't want to hear what people say.

"You got something delicious again, let me see, ah! Tofu vermicelli with cabbage, and there is meat in it!" Yu Li said in surprise when she opened the lid of the lunch box.

People in this era are not so pretentious. The pregnant Yu Li is still at work. Will she rest until she gives birth? Like Li Jianhua, she eats at work at noon.

Needless to say, the food is usually steamed corn bread with cornmeal, and occasionally a steamed bun with gray flour. The food is usually boiled cabbage, which is considered a good condition.

In view of this kind of food, Li Jianhua will improve her every now and then, and find an excuse to bring some vegetables back at night to supplement her nutrition.

"Hush~ Keep it low, don't let anyone hear you. There's still a box of rice, let's heat it up and eat it quickly." Li Jianhua made a hush and whispered.

It's so noisy that eating a meal is like being a thief. When will this day be a head!
"Hurry up and eat, don't be reluctant. You need to supplement nutrition now, and our family does not lack this." Li Jianhua gave Yu Li some more dishes and said.

The dishes were hot, and Yu Li wanted to save some for Li Jianhua tomorrow. A big box of vegetables and a big box of lunch, Li Jianhua divided it into two, and gave Yu Li some more, signaling her to finish the meal.

Don't say you can't eat, people are short of oil and water, let alone Yu Li, even a child can feed you.

"Be obedient. This is the dish I brought back. It's not good for people to see. Let's eat it quickly. After eating, open the window to let the smell out." Li Jianhua saw that Yu Li wanted to say something and interrupted directly.

As soon as Yu Li heard this, she hurriedly ate it. As the director of the cafeteria, Li Jianhua could reap some benefits, but these benefits could not be put on the table.Yu Li didn't dislike it, it seemed that no one would dislike it at the moment.

It is someone's ability to get benefits. It is too late for Yu Li to be proud of such a husband. How can there be any resentment? This is the generation gap, and each era has an idea.

After Yu Li finished eating, she poured some boiling water into the lunch box. She rinsed the lunch box with chopsticks and drank the boiling water before she was satisfied. The inside was oily. At this time, there are a few restaurants that can eat meat, that is, her husband. If you have this ability, you can't waste it.

Li Jianhua was a little helpless, Yu Li still behaved like this in terms of their family's conditions, so the other families didn't know what it was like.

"Jianhua, then I'll take care of it!" When Yu Li said this, she couldn't help but look at Li Jianhua's lunch box. There were still several grains of rice in it, and the oily smell of vegetables in the lunch box. Her husband was spoiled and raised since she was a child, isn't she? What a waste!
"Well! Clean it up, I'll open the window a little bit to slowly dissipate the smell." How could Li Jianhua pay attention to this, got up and opened the window a little bit.It is troublesome to live in this quadrangle, there are too many people staring at what to eat.

But it’s like this everywhere now, even if you’re a detached house with something good to eat, you can still smell it in a few nearby restaurants. It’s really the evolution of people’s hunger.

Yu Li responded, and came to the kitchen with the lunch box. She first poured some boiling water into Li Jianhua's lunch box, drank the few grains of rice and the oil, and then washed it with satisfaction.Food and oil can not be wasted.

"Lily, last time I saw that there was no flour in Mom's place, let's get some flour later!" Li Jianhua said after opening the window.

He went to his father-in-law's house for dinner two days ago, and his mother-in-law made dumplings for him, and he finished eating the white noodles. How could Li Jianhua go there, thinking about delivering tofu for a while, and getting some white noodles by the way.

"Ah? We still need white noodles! We don't have many in our family." Yu Li muttered. Yu's mother had educated her long ago. After getting married, she and Li Jianhua became a family, and the Li family was the main family. You can't always think about giving things to your natal family.

Their Yu family can't always take advantage of others just because the son-in-law is generous, how will the daughter's life be like after a long time.

"We still have some more, bring some for Dad and the others, and then ask Mom to make dumplings for us. I will get some fat meat when I rest tomorrow, and I will use some oil for Mom and the others. Let's eat oily dumplings." Li Jianhua said with a smile.

Didn't he make a dark basement before?There is a lot of food in it, so don't panic if you have food at home, or because of Yu Li's character, she would have already saved money.

Now there are more and more food substitutes. Many of these things are black technology.

I said last time that the best one is cornmeal, that is, the whole corn is ground directly. In fact, it can still be eaten after a sieve, but Li Jianhua would not eat it. If Yu Li insisted, he would not buy it.

"This~ no need! Jianhua, if you want to eat dumplings, we can make them ourselves." Yu Li hesitated and said, of course she wanted to help her mother's family, but she was afraid that Li Jianhua would blame her. What she meant was that their family relied on oil. That's fine, you don't need to share it with her natal family.

"Your buns are not as delicious as mom's ones, okay, just listen to me, we don't need this with me." Li Jianhua hugged the hesitant Yu Li and said.

"Jianhua, you're so kind!" Yu Li leaned into her husband's arms. She didn't know that he was helping her natal family. Of course, this premise was that she knew that the family had a lot of food and that her husband was capable.
