I am many years in the courtyard

Chapter 181, the enemy's road is narrow

When many years and Qin Huairu saw Liu Wanqiu and the others, the four of them also looked over.

The eyes of the two sides met in the air, and their expressions were different.

For many years it was indifference and indifference, and even a little dislike.

Because in his opinion, Liu Wanqiu and Duan Xiaoyu are synonymous with trouble.

Not to mention Jia Zhang, since she returned to the courtyard for many years, she has never stopped looking for trouble for many years.

As for He Yuzhu, a fool, he was just an ordinary neighbor for many years.

People say that distant relatives are not as good as close neighbors, but for close neighbors like He Yuzhu, forget it.

When I got married before, I invited the other party to help me cook for many years.

Good guy, quit halfway, and then the day before the wedding, I wanted to come back.

Such a neighbor, it's really useless to give him a chance, he's a fool, just stay and go.

Qin Huairu just stared at Liu Wanqiu, she still remembered what the latter said to her back then, it was very hurtful.

Therefore, ever since hearing about Liu Wanqiu's father, Qin Huairu only felt happy, but not sympathetic or pitiful.

Of the four of Liu Wanqiu on the opposite side, only He Yuzhu was slightly embarrassed, while the other three looked at Many Nian and Qin Huairu with hatred.

Then, many years and Qin Huairu ignored the four of them, and passed by them without even looking at them.

Just leave.

Seeing Liu Wanqiu and Duan Xiaoyu still looking at the backs of many years and Qin Huairu, He Yuzhu was slightly jealous, and said awkwardly:

"Well, I have already prepared lunch, let's go in and sit down and eat and chat"

Humble dog licking, isn't it just coveting the beauty of others, sooner or later you will regret it.

It's a pity that He Yuzhu is so lustful, after all, this is the true nature of a man.

Liu Wanqiu forced a smile, the smile was very ugly, but He Yuzhu didn't dare to shake his face.

It was hard work to invite here, and looking at it up close, the house is really beautiful.

Damn it, he's about to fall, what should we do?
After taking Qin Huairu away from the courtyard for many years, he didn't know He Yuzhu's psychological activities at all.

Even if you know it, you won't be nosy.

The young couple did not discuss Liu Wanqiu and the others, but chatted about what they should buy later.

Qin Huairu, who was sitting on the back seat of the car, was in a beautiful mood.

She very much hoped that she could always rely on her brother A Nian and go all the way.

But the department store is not far away, and of course it will be faster if you ride a bicycle.

After arriving at the place and parking the car, Qin Huairu saw that many years gave out five cents to someone, and then the other party gave him a ticket, so he couldn't help but look at the ticket curiously.

"Brother A Nian, is this the parking ticket? Is it so expensive?"

"That's right, anyone who can ride a bicycle is still a rich person, spend five cents to buy a safe, don't let the bicycle be stolen by someone, it will be even more troublesome"

Many years said with a faint smile, it is quite understandable.

In this era, the law and order in the capital is beyond words.

Needless to say, it is safe in places such as work units or courtyard houses, and it is very safe.

But in some public places, this may not be the case.

Department stores start to open early in the morning and end at night, and the flow of people is always very dense.

Regardless of the lack of supplies in this era, there are still many rich people in the capital city with a population of 660 million.

Not to mention those university professors, Peking opera actors such as Mei Lanfang, and not to mention those cadres and leaders, but just ordinary working-class people like Shunian, Yi Zhonghai, and Liu Haizhong, there are many people with a monthly salary of around [-] or [-].

There are also groups of doctors, relevant departments such as Kang Daotong, army officers, etc. Many groups can be said to be rich people in this era.

Ordinary designers like Chen Xiaoxian and Hu Shufen earn 50 yuan a month.

There are many rich people, but by comparison, there are many poor people.

Many poor people have backbone, no matter how poor or poor they are, they will not steal or rob, but rely on their hands to work in exchange for their daily necessities.

However, there are always some pickpockets whose bones are very soft and who don't want to work, just want to steal chickens and dogs.

As well as some traffickers and the like, they come to public places to find targets.

In short, this society is very complicated, and there are all kinds of people.

Therefore, every time I come to a department store for many years, if it is not necessary, I still walk.

It's just that since I got a bicycle, I don't like walking very much.

Qin Huairu snorted, and followed many years into the store.

Not long after entering, I saw people gathered together, and it was very lively.

The two passed by, and heard the people inside shouting about moon cakes, moon cake tickets, and so on. Only then did they realize that this place is for selling moon cakes.

"Brother Anian, isn't this too crazy?"

Looking at the scene in front of me, there are at least hundreds of people crowded, holding tickets in their hands to buy moon cakes.

So Qin Huairu was greatly shocked.

Many Nian said to her with a smile, "Let's go, let's go to the front and have a look. It's normal that there are many people here, but we don't have mooncake tickets."

Regarding moon cakes, starting from this year, there have been restrictions, and they are still very strict.

Therefore, it is estimated that some independent small kingdom-like units, such as farms in the northeast, etc., are likely to distribute mooncakes secretly.

In a large unit like the Design Institute, there are too many people, and it is impossible for the cafeteria to make mooncakes and distribute them to everyone.

Therefore, two big pears were distributed to each person a few days ago, which is considered to barely pass a festival.

In the year of the founding of the People's Republic of China, the Mid-Autumn Festival in the south was not yet liberated, but in the southernmost city, major restaurants and bakery vendors fought to sell mooncakes.

There are bonsai placed in front of the store and advertisements in newspapers. However, as the Mid-Autumn Festival approaches, there are still very few people who buy cakes and give gifts.

After the festival, all kinds of moon cakes piled up like mountains.

In the year of the Northern War, the hottest thing was the moon cake mold for aiding Korea.

The entire mold is hand-carved from a piece of brown square hard miscellaneous wood. The diameter of the groove is about 12 cm, which is larger than mooncakes on the market.

In [-], the "People's Daily" had such a notice: The Chinese food company BJ City Company and the BJ City Supply and Marketing Cooperative have prepared a large number of Mid-Autumn Festival food for the people of the capital.

In August of that year, the buyers of the Chinese food company BJ City set off to Gansu and NMG grasslands in the northwest to purchase cattle and sheep.

Apples from the northeast, bananas from the south, etc., were transported to the capital one after another.

The Beijing Supply and Marketing Cooperative even purchased and organized the processing of a batch of meat, fish, fruit, moon cakes and other foods.

Moreover, in order to facilitate citizens to buy festival food, the urban supply and marketing cooperatives also set up some temporary fruit stalls and meat stalls.

However, this year, that is, [-], the prosperity of the past is gone forever.

Moon cakes need to be purchased by ticket, and the restrictions are extremely strict.

I haven't been to Pigeon Market for many years, so I can't get mooncake tickets.

Qin Huairu is ignorant of these things, but she knows that many small details in life are different from the past.

For example, she can only raise two chickens. For example, she cannot eat commercial food with a rural household registration.

She doesn't know when the above policy was issued, but when she wants to do something, someone will always tell her that this cannot be done, and that should be done.

Just like moon cakes, if she hadn't seen them when she went out today, she would have thought that the people in the city were like the countryside in Qinjiagou, and there would be no moon cakes to eat during the festival.

"Do you want to eat mooncakes?"

When Qin Huairu was still shocked and feeling emotional about the scene where so many people bought mooncakes just now, suddenly many years next to her asked her a question.

She subconsciously said that of course she wanted to, and then she immediately came back to her senses, looking at many years and hastily defended:
"No, brother Anian, I don't want to, actually I don't like mooncakes, and mooncakes are not delicious"

She tries to prove that she is not a gluttonous daughter-in-law by belittling moon cakes.

If it made her feel that she was greedy and wanted everything for many years, then she would really cry to death.

When I was a child, I made mooncakes several times at home, but they were all homemade with the cheapest materials.

Like saccharine!
Many people may not know saccharin, but this thing is really cheap.

When Qin Huairu went to the supply and marketing agency to buy sugar last time, she asked about the price.

White sugar costs [-] cents a catty, brown sugar costs [-] cents a catty, and even broken Cuban sugar costs [-] cents a catty.

But the price of saccharin is only a dime a bag.

Saccharin was discovered by scientists at Johns Hopkins University during experiments in the nineteenth century.

And during the two world wars, due to the shortage of sugar, this allowed saccharin to be popularized.

However, it was later found through animal experiments that saccharin can cause bladder cancer in animal rats. Saccharin and its salts are in the third category of carcinogens. Eating saccharin is harmful to human health.

Saccharin is an organic chemical product. It is a food additive rather than a food. It has no nutritional value to the human body except for the sweet feeling in the taste.

Qin Huairu didn't understand this when she was a child, but the last time she bought a bag of saccharin, she was popularized for many years.

Only then did I discover the dangers of saccharin and why it is so cheap.

For many years, he couldn't laugh or cry, and interrupted Qin Huairu's explanation, saying:
"Okay, so many people are watching, I'm not a cheapskate, what I meant just now is, let's buy the ingredients and go back to make mooncakes by ourselves. If you don't like it, I still like it."

She breathed a sigh of relief, but still looked at him suspiciously, "Really?"

"Well, why am I lying to you? Let's go, let's go buy materials."

"But Brother Anian, the ingredients for mooncakes are very expensive. They require a lot of oil and sugar."

Listening to her snapping off her little finger and counting the materials, her face was filled with distress for many years.

White noodles are still available at home, so you don’t need to buy them
Before she could finish speaking, many years had already pulled her forward.

When I came to the place where the sugar was sold, I took out a one-jin sugar ticket and nine ten-cent bills, and handed them to the staff:

"Hello comrade, please weigh a catty of sugar for me."

The staff didn't talk nonsense, and directly gave many years two cents, and then began to weigh.

Qin Huairu, who was following behind him, didn't speak, but his eyes were full of curiosity.

Brother Anian is so kind to me.

After buying the sugar, he held the white sugar wrapped in paper for many years and said to Qin Huairu with a smile:

"Sugar has already been bought. We can't afford oil, but we can use animal oil instead. Let's see if there is any pork."

For cooking oil in this era, each person is issued a monthly oil ticket, which can be used to buy three taels of cooking oil. During the Spring Festival, each household is issued an additional "holiday subsidy oil ticket", which can be used to buy sesame oil for one tael.

The fuel ticket is two in the land market, and it is also six taels of fuel. It is fixed and cannot be changed.

In the family of many years, only one person can receive a fuel ticket every month. Qin Huairu has a rural household registration and cannot receive it.

Or put it this way, Qin Huairu is not eligible for any urgently needed materials that need to be sold or purchased.

All the unified sales and purchase materials she enjoys now are her personal share for many years.

Starting from this year, residents have had a grain purchase certificate, that is, a grain book, for many years, but Qin Huairu did not.

If you are poor, you want to change!

After hearing the words for many years, Qin Huairu's eyes suddenly brightened. When he followed him to the pork sales area, he was still worried:
"Brother A Nian, do we still have meat tickets?"

Of course there is!
For many years, she comforted her, saying that she still has it in her body, don't worry, it must be enough.

Originally it was gone, but in the early hours of this morning, more than 300 catties of food stamps were found from the corpses of two little devils, and there were a lot of meat stamps, food stamps, etc. inside.

Of course, there are not many fuel tickets, only three in total, so they have not been used for many years.

When the two came to this area, they didn't know if it was because of the holiday tomorrow, and it happened that the last half of the big fat pig came up again.

It is said to be a fat pig, but it is not very fat. The last side weighs about 130 jin.

Get rid of more than ten catties of lard suet, which is more than 110 catties.

But in the era when there was no feed, such pigs were already very fat.

As soon as the pork was put on the shelves, it was immediately looted by people.

For many years, he didn't care about his image, let Qin Huairu stand behind, and he took advantage of his body to squeeze in first.

"Comrade, give me ten catties of meat!"

hum!
Everyone is stunned, who is it?So proud?
The meat ticket in [-], the full name is the Beijing City Meat Purchase Certificate, and there were only four types of supply: pork, beef, mutton and eggs.

Yes, eggs are meat too!

The meat tickets that have been produced for many years are universal across the country, and in terms of value, they are higher than local meat tickets.

It is the favorite of many comrades who often go out on business, and it is also the most popular ticket in Pigeon City.

Meat coupons are not on the food book, that is to say, they do not need to be purchased through the food book.

The food book is limited to oil, grain and other materials, which also need tickets to purchase, but pork only needs meat tickets.

It is not difficult to see from here that supplies such as grain, oil and non-staple food are more in short supply.

Even so, buying ten catties of pork at one time, in the eyes of many people, is a very wealthy family.

Either it is the kind of big family, or who buys meat by ten catties?
The staff was also slightly surprised, and then took over many years of meat tickets and money, and then began to divide the meat.

When buying meat in this era, more or less pork suet or fat will be added to try to be fair and just.

In addition, I was also afraid that only lean meat would be left in the end, which would not be easy to sell.

Because everyone is short of oil and water, when buying meat, I like fatty meat the most.

Everything comes first, first served, many years in the middle, when it was his turn, the staff gave him the remaining suet.

The remaining lard suet is about one catty, less than two catties.

Then the staff cut another eight catties of hind legs for him.

There is not much fat in the hind legs, but more lean.

But it doesn't matter, there are a total of eight catties of meat, and at least one and a half catties of fat can be separated out.

In this way, there will be three catties of fat, and a lot of oil can be extracted by then.

However, when he happily took over the pork for many years, he was stopped by someone who rushed in from the side.

"Comrade, would you please give me five catties of meat? I'm really short of fuel."

Zhou Guoping was out of breath, but he didn't let go of the pork he was carrying.

He is really unlucky today, his wife is going to buy mooncakes this morning.

It turned out to be a good thing. When I opened the box, the mooncake tickets inside disappeared.

If you don't have a mooncake ticket, you can't buy mooncakes, so how can you have a good relationship with the leaders above?
If you don't worship Buddha on holidays, do you wait until someone retires or gets promoted before going to worship?

Moreover, as long as you don't visit the leader once, people will remember you.

Therefore, after Zhou Guoping came home at noon and learned of the incident, he took the time to go to the department store to buy materials and prepare to do it himself.

However, all the materials have been bought, but the oil is missing.

Today's edible oil is in short supply, not only in department stores, but also in supply and marketing cooperatives.

Probably because tomorrow is the Mid-Autumn Festival, so many people bought these two days.

Originally, the supply of grain and oil was very tight, and so much oil could not be transferred for a while, and Zhou Guoping happened to catch up.

In addition, he has to rush to buy the ingredients and go home to make moon cakes, so he will visit the leader as soon as possible tonight.

Time is running out!

Without oil, it can only be replaced with animal oil.

Coincidentally, when he arrived, he only saw this large piece of meat in the hands of many years.

Immediately, he decided to grab it first and then talk.

The scene was a bit chaotic for a moment, and many people were scolding Zhou Guoping because he used so much force when he pushed the crowd away.

In addition, Zhou Guoping was still a fat man, and the impact was so strong that everyone was hurt.

He repeatedly apologized to the onlookers, and then held the pork for many years to discuss, while taking out a meat ticket from his pocket with the other hand.

The latter frowned endlessly, even if he bought some meat, he would run into trouble, it really is so narrow.

However, judging by Zhou Guoping's appearance, it is obvious that he has been forgotten for many years.

However, before speaking for many years, Zhou Guoping suddenly said:
"Comrade, have we met before? I think you look familiar. You are so young. Are you a buyer of a certain unit?"

Zhou Guoping was originally a member of the sales department of Liulihe Cement Factory in Beijing, and most of the people he dealt with were purchasers of construction units.

In other words, he is Party A and everyone else is Party B.
