Take Arada back to the past

Chapter 322

After Hu Laoji watched Yang Xiaole leave, he returned to the room.

The old lady looked at the old man who was meditating and asked doubtfully: "What's wrong?"

Hu Laojie is counting how many times he still has enough money to buy.

Fifty is indeed not a high price, but the problem is that it doesn’t take long to eat one!

Hearing the old lady's call, he raised his head and said with a smile: "It's nothing. I just went to the house where you were working instead! Ask them to ask if there is any medicine left and bring me some. They just came over to say hello. If you say yes, bring it to me in a few days.”

"Ah? Is it expensive?"

Hu Laoji, "Why is it so expensive! Do you think I am willing to buy medicine that is too expensive? Why bother worrying so much! If all the money is spent on your medical treatment, what will I eat and drink in the future?"

The old lady also nodded lightly: "Well, don't buy too expensive ones, keep some."

But she also knows her man.

Very tough talk.

Still explained.

After hearing what the old lady said, the old man just hummed.

Then he stood up and said, "Don't you want some noodle tea? I'll make you some."

After that, he got up and went to find something.

……

Yang Xiaole left Uncle Hu's house and rode his bike home.

On the way back, I happened to meet this guy Wang Jianjun.

"Hey, Xiaole!!"

Hearing the sound, Yang Xiaole turned around and saw the other person riding a bicycle and stopped.

"Brother Wang, are you going out to play?"

"Hey, what are you playing for? There's something going on at work, so I went over there."

After Wang Jianjun finished speaking, he looked around and asked in a low voice: "Why are the things for this month gone?"

Yang Xiaole took a look at each other and saw that he got things for him every month. This month, because he was going to the Northeast, he naturally forgot about it.

There's no rush to talk about this.

Instead, he whispered: "Brother Wang, this month is gone, let's go next month. I have been very busy these two days and have no time to go to the countryside. I just came back from the Northeast!"

"Huh? It's gone?"

Wang Jianjun was disappointed for a while.

Then he asked: "What are you busy with! Aren't you on vacation? Why did you go to the Northeast again?"

"Didn't my dad go to support the Daqing Oilfield Competition? I've been there for a few months, and my family was a little worried, so I went to have a look."

After Yang Xiaole finished speaking, he muttered: "What else can I be busy with! I'm busy going back to the countryside!"

"Back to the countryside? What's going on?"

"What else can happen? Streamline it! Keep an eye on my house. Brother Wang, please give me a trick!"

After feeding it for so long, it’s time to put it to some use.

He doesn't lack the money.

Hearing this, Wang Jianjun was embarrassed for a while: "What can I do! These are all policies from above, and I can't make the decision!"

Yang Xiaole nodded when he heard this: "Okay, I understand, let's go back first!"

After saying that, he was about to leave.

"Hey, don't leave in a hurry! Don't run out of things next month!"

"Next month? Let's see next month!"

Do you really treat him like a child?

As for whether the other party would threaten him with quitting, I'm afraid he doesn't have the guts.

During this time, I gave him lots of eggs and meat.

If he suddenly became the same ration as ordinary people, he would definitely not be able to bear it.

Wang Jianjun looked at his leaving figure, feeling tangled for a while.

Finally I had to go home.

After Yang Xiaole came back, Xiaoli and Xiaomai also returned home.

A group of people were laughing and chatting there.

Wheat hummed a few lines from time to time.

The room was very harmonious.

Only Xizi, a disgusting fellow, was reading the little book.

"Brother~~"

Seeing him come back, Xiaoli and Mai were both there to say hello.

Yang Xiaole smiled and nodded.

Sat down.

If you have nothing to do, wash your hands and make dumplings together.

He glanced at Xizi next to him, muttering to himself: "Xizi, come over and make dumplings. You can make as many as you want to eat tonight!"

"what!"

Hearing this, Xizi looked confused: "I don't know how!"

"Yes, you can't, we are born with it!"

Yang Xiaole rolled her eyes and glanced at him while wrapping dumplings.

"Then...didn't Mom also pack it?"

"Then you go help mother wash the clothes, so you don't have to pack them."

Hearing this, Xizi curled her lips and said, "I'll ask my mother to wrap it up for me later."

Then continued reading the little book.

But when I saw Yang Xiaole handing out dumplings to others, whoever made the dumplings would remember the quantity.

When it's time to cook, cook them separately.

He was still a little worried.

Second brother, this guy can really do it.

Seeing his troubled expression, the eldest sister snickered and said, "It's okay, Xizi, I'll give you a bag. I'll give you one after a while."

Xizi was very happy when she heard it!

But when I heard what happened later, I suddenly became speechless.

What's the use of one!

Xiaomai was also smiling there: "Xizi, I'll give you two."

Others were also talking there.

Hearing this, Xizi counted and found that there were only six in total. What use were these!

They walked over angrily, washed their hands and sat together.

Holding the dumpling wrappers rolled out by Ding Ruolan, she looked at this and then that, and then followed obediently to make the dumplings.

No, maybe it’s a small meat bun.

"Sister Ruolan, roll it out a little bigger for me so that I can pack it easily."

Seeing that it was not easy, Xizi smiled and said to Ding Ruolan who was rolling out the dough.

Ding Ruolan was delighted when she saw this.

He smiled and agreed: "Okay! I'll roll a big one for you. How big do you want it to be?"

"I'm hungry. It would be nice to have these two."

Xizi was proud there.

The bag is big, has a lot of meat, and saves trouble. Thinking about it, I feel so smart.

Hearing this, Ding Ruolan happily rolled out a large dough for him.

Xizi took it and wrapped it there.

The result is naturally another big meat bun.

Everyone was delighted to see it.

Yang Xiaole ignored him, looked at his eldest brother, thought of something and asked, "By the way, eldest brother, have you packed up the house? Do you want to buy the others? If you want to buy it, do it early."

After the big white bear thing came out.

By the end of the month, this quota will definitely plummet.

Since we live separately, we still need quilts.

The eldest brother thought about it for a while and finally shook his head: "There is nothing else to buy. The bed and wardrobe can only be bought after getting a marriage certificate. I have already ordered the dresser and desk from Uncle Zhao. They should arrive in the next few days."

As for the bench, I have also bought it back.

By the way, this place is really too small, I can barely fit these in.

Yang Xiaole nodded.

Although there are no cloth tickets for quilt covers and new clothes, some department stores in the city sell finished products free of charge, but the prices are very high.     But these days, I am still willing to buy some when I get married.

The eldest brother is making dumplings there, but the dumplings he makes are just a little bit prettier than Xizi's.

After all, I have never asked my eldest brother to do housework before.

Even he is the same.

The eldest brother was busy there and thought of something and said: "Xiao Le, I guess our mother may really come back home to take care of the children in the future."

Yang Xiaole thought he was talking about simplicity.

Then he said nonchalantly: "Our family shouldn't be able to lose weight. Didn't I say that last time? Don't worry."

But what his elder brother said next made him stunned for a moment.

I saw the eldest brother shook his head: "No, it has nothing to do with the previous rural clearance, and it's not right, it has something to do with it."

Yang Xiaole stopped what he was doing and was stunned for a moment: "What do you mean?"

"You can't explain clearly, let me tell you!"

I saw Ding Ruolan rolling out dumpling wrappers there and saying: "Enterprises and institutions are reducing their personnel on the original basis. The proportion is almost half of 49%. It is necessary to reduce the number of people by 2800 million on the original basis."

After finishing speaking, he glanced outside and said, "The same is true for the Bureau of Commerce. All kinds of commercial shops that were opened blindly before need to be closed down. As for personnel, unless there are special circumstances, priority will be given to people from rural areas entering the city."

Yang Xiaole frowned.

He had never heard of this in his previous life!

But thinking about it, I had only heard about the Qing Dynasty and read a lot of information, and the writing was relatively vague.

Then he frowned and asked, "What do you mean? The Qing returned to the countryside?"

Ding Ruolan shook his head: "No, this time we are reducing the number of employees on the job, not moving them back to the countryside. It seems to be like this now. Depending on the situation, one person from each family is left to work."

"Only one person in the family? Is the reduction so great?"

Yang Xiaole was surprised.

Ding Ruolan nodded, then shook her head: "The quotas are only given above, and each unit is also calculated based on the family's situation. Some industries do not need to be reduced. For example, the education industry will not be reduced. Those who get married and start a family are counted as one household."

After listening, Yang Xiaole understood.

To put it bluntly, it’s just an unspoken rule that one person should be kept in each family.

Thinking of this, he asked: "So, in our family, the eldest brother's household registration is a collective household registration and is not here. There are two people in our family who work, so we can only keep one?"

Ding Ruolan nodded: "Yes, that's what I mean!"

After hearing this, the eldest brother also took the words and said: "Our compound, Jianguo's parents, Uncle Shen's house, and Shi Jing's family in the backyard, all have to come down. Including our family, there are four in total. They are all Suspended without pay.”

After hearing this, Yang Xiaole pondered.

There are only four households in the compound where both parents work, while the others are women who cook and take care of the children at home.

It should be five.

The Fang family is a dual-income family, but both husband and wife work in the education industry, so they are not in this category.

Thinking of this, he was confused for a while.

It is said that the job is suspended without pay, and good positions will be reassigned in the future, but so many young people have to work every year.

How can there be any jobs?

If this is the case, and the Qing Dynasty returns to the countryside, if my mother is laid off, my father will be in greater danger.

After all, his job is not as reliable as my mother's.

But it is not practical to let dad cook and take care of the children at home. From now on, dad will no longer be able to hold his head high in the alley.

Thinking of this, he still asked: "When will it start? Has it been confirmed? Why didn't mother say anything?"

"Everyone has been notified, and it is estimated that it will start next month. Mom said that if dad can't come back now, it won't be blamed on him. Her work unit also said that she won't consider it for the time being. We’ll discuss it when dad comes back, and if it doesn’t work out, she’ll stay at home and say she’ll take care of the kids in the future.”

Ding Ruolan felt a little embarrassed after saying this.

Yang Xiaole nodded slightly when he heard this.

If it is really necessary, you can let me come back. After being tired for so many years, I should enjoy peace and happiness.

Just don't go back to the countryside.

Anyway, the family is not short of money.

As for returning to the countryside, he is no longer worried. If it doesn't work, he will bring Qiao Yan's house over.

Qiao Yan will also arrange it.

When the time comes, it will be more convenient to live in a courtyard of my own home.

At most it will be a little troublesome in the future.

But if it can be resolved peacefully and there is no need to go back, that would naturally be the best.

He didn't bother bothering.

In her thoughts, Xiaoli suddenly said: "Brother, Sister Tiantian's foot is sprained!"

Yang Xiaole came back to his senses and was surprised: "What's going on?"

"I just twisted it while dancing."

"Are you okay?"

"My feet are very swollen, I guess I won't be able to dance for a while."

The little girl muttered something, and then continued to make dumplings. Her movements were awkward, but the ones she made looked pretty good.

Yang Xiaole nodded slightly.

It just so happened that he was going to Suo Ye's place tomorrow, so he would have a look then.

"What do you mean by this bag?"

While talking, Wang Qiuju had already dried her clothes and came in.

Looking at the dumplings made by Xizi, he muttered.

Seeing my mother coming, Xizi found the backbone and said with an aggrieved face: "Second brother said whoever cooks the food will eat it, so he won't take me."

The eldest sister smiled when she heard this: "I said I would pack one for you! Don't talk nonsense."

"Yes, I'll cover it for you too."

Xiaoli was pouting and complaining, with a look of dissatisfaction on her face.

Wang Qiuju was very happy after seeing it and wanted to know what kind of dumplings a grown man could make.

But when I saw the eldest and second child making dumplings there, I thought about it and smiled and said, "That's right. The whole family is busy working, and you're the only one playing next to me?"

Then they washed their hands and came over to wrap them up together.

Seeing that no one was making decisions for him, Xizi pouted and worked there.

Yang Xiaole saw his mother sitting down and asked about what Ding Ruolan had just said.

Wang Qiuju licked her lips and sighed: "Our director said that when the 'Great Run' started, a lot of new stores were opened, but now many of them have to be closed, and some of the people who were sent out have to go back to their original places. unit, many new recruits will have to leave."

Then he continued to mutter: "Now is a difficult time. I heard from the director that half of the people in the agency have to leave!"

Yang Xiaole nodded after listening.

I made it very clear.

organ.

Factories, workshops, factories and mines are not considered government agencies.

Even government agencies are like this, and the rest can be imagined.

Then nothing more was said.

Just take it one step at a time. Of course, if you can keep your job, that would be the best.

It doesn't matter if you can't.

Dumplings were made and the family ate them there.

It's just a joke to say that you can only eat what you pack.

However, this guy Xizi’s bags are ugly, and the number is not as large as the others, but he is really big!

A man was happily eating dumplings there.

…………

The next morning, the eldest brother and others went to work.

Yang Xiaole took Xiaoli to Xidan on a bicycle.

There is no rush to go to Suo Ye.

Instead, he went straight to Hua Yourong's home.

Of course it was Su Ling who opened the door.

"Xiao Le is back?"

"Well, I came back yesterday. Auntie, you didn't go to work?"

"Didn't Tiantian sprain her ankle? I didn't go to work."

Yang Xiaole nodded. It wouldn't work without an old man at home. If something happens, he won't be able to leave.

Then we went in together.

When he came into the house, he saw Hua Yourong sitting on the sofa in the main room, with one foot on the slipper and no shoes on.

One little foot was very swollen.
