Wearing the shopping mall through the 70s

Chapter 56 The food borrowing crisis
Early the next morning, Shen Ruoqing brought the hair flower to Song Feifei.

When Song Feifei saw it, she liked it so much that she immediately put on the flower. She didn't want to take advantage of Shen Ruoqing, so she gave Shen Ruoqing fifty cents.

This beautiful hairdo made Song Feifei get the attention of almost all the girls in the class, and everyone started discussing around Song Feifei.After learning that this hair flower was worn by Shen Ruoqing, several beauty lovers immediately approached Shen Ruoqing.

"I'm sorry, I only have this pair. If I give it to Feifei, I won't have it myself." Shen Ruoqing declined the others with a smile.Private business is not allowed now. Giving Song Feifei a pair is just a matter of friendship. If she casually sells it to other little girls, someone might report her.

However, this also gave Shen Ruoqing some thoughts. It seems that this type of small decoration is very popular with these little girls. Maybe they can do this business in the future.

Seeing that all her glory was taken away by Song Feifei, Liu Xinyi suppressed her displeasure and resented Shen Ruoqing even deeper.

The final exam ended quickly on this day.

Shen Ruoqing felt that he did quite well in the exam. The final exam was much less difficult than the joint entrance exam. There was no problem in getting the first place in the exam.Shen Hansong looked relaxed as he walked out. It seemed that Shen Hansong did well in the exam.

"Ruoqing, don't forget to go see a movie together tomorrow!" Song Feifei waved to Shen Ruoqing and left the school.

Shen Ruoqing waited for a while, and after all the little carrot heads at home came out, they walked home together.

"Sister-in-law, you are so awesome. I passed the review questions you taught me last night," Shen Hansong said.

The school will be on vacation after the exams, and you can just pick up your transcripts in a few days.

Shen Ruoqing looked at the expressions of the little carrots at home. Shen Yue and Shen Hanwu had a bit of an ugly expression, and Shen Yun had a bit of uneasiness. The others' expressions were pretty good.

Shen Hanwen came over and said, "Sister-in-law, the exam is finally over, do we want to celebrate? Why don't you tell me and let's have pimple soup tonight."

Shen Ruoqing thought for a while: "It's not impossible." She hadn't eaten pimple soup for a long time.

When Shen Ruoqing returned home, before she could speak, she found that there were guests at home.

It's Cui Zhaodi here.

Cui Zhaodi came to borrow food.

The harvests of several nearby production teams were not good. Wang's natal family said they had no grain, so they hoped that Mrs. Ji could borrow [-] kilograms of grain.

Mrs. Ji pulled the elder's face and said, "My mother-in-law, every household is in short supply of food these days. You need two hundred kilograms of food with just one mouthful. How can our family have so much surplus food to lend to you? Every household is in need of food." There’s not enough to eat.”

Cui Zhaodi didn't accept this trick. She obviously came prepared: "I believe that other people's families are short of food, but my mother-in-law's family is definitely not. Who doesn't know your son's future? I've heard that, mother-in-law You made two more new sets of clothes, even one for the little one in your family. You even used grain to exchange for bicycle tickets. How dare you do this if there is no food left at home? Also, your family is the only one that raises so many clothes. Chickens and ducks, if there is no food, how dare you raise so many chickens and ducks? My mother-in-law, our family is really short of food, otherwise I wouldn't use this old face to open my mouth. I don't want it in vain, I will give it back if I borrow it. , I will return it to you after harvesting next summer."

Mrs. Ji turned back and glanced at Wang, who was so frightened that she shrank her neck.This second daughter-in-law really can't keep her mouth shut and talks about everything.Now Cui Zhaodi is talking about these things. If he doesn't borrow food, isn't he waiting to be poked in the back?
"It's all rumored by outsiders. To make new clothes, my fourth son happened to exchange some expiring cotton and cloth coupons with his colleagues. They were not used in vain. In addition, our cotton-padded jackets have not been replaced with new ones in many years. The old ones It has long been out of heat. There are many people in the family, so I can only change clothes for a few small ones, and there is no share for the adults. Just because I still raise a few chickens and ducks, food is tight, but I can use the chicken butt bank to exchange for some household income. . There really isn’t much food left at home, but since your in-laws have come to visit, I can only grit my teeth and tighten my belt and give some to you, but two hundred kilograms is definitely not that much. With so many people in the family, I can only I can borrow twenty kilograms of sweet potatoes."

"Twenty kilograms of sweet potatoes? What's the big deal? My mother-in-law, your family can afford fine grains in exchange for train tickets, so you give me twenty kilograms of sweet potatoes? How can it make sense?"

"Mom, just lend me some food. Don't we still have food at home? I've looked in the cellar, just borrow a little." Wang shrank her head and whispered.

"What kind of food is there! Don't you know how many kilograms of food are harvested in the autumn?" Mrs. Ji gave Mrs. Wang a hard look. If Mrs. Wang dares to tell her about her family's exchange of vegetables for grain, she will ask her second son to tell her. divorce!Also, when did she dare to go to the cellar to see the grain?

"In-laws, you see, my daughter has already said that your family has food. Isn't it appropriate to fool me with twenty kilograms of sweet potatoes?" Cui Zhaodi looked confident of winning.

"Aunt Cui, do you think our family is a landowner? How can we get so much food? Okay, Aunt Cui, you don't believe me, do you? Come, follow me to see it. I will take you to the cellar of our home." Shen Ruoqing She immediately went to the cellar, for which she had the key.

"Good boy!" Mrs. Ji called out and followed.

Cui Zhaodi watched with suspicion as Shen Ruoqing opened the lock and got in alone.

"Why don't you come in? Come in and take a look." Shen Ruoqing turned around and said with a missing head.

"Just take a look!" Cui Zhaodi felt that her daughter would not lie to her. Although she didn't know where the Shen family got the food, if Wang said it was there, then it must be there.

As a result, everyone who came in was dumbfounded. There was food in the cellar, but it was all coarse grains, and the quantity was not very large. Cornmeal only weighed twenty or thirty kilograms.

"Where did the food go?" Wang screamed.

Mrs. Ji was also shocked for a moment, but she quickly adjusted her emotions. She thought that Shen Ruoqing must have hidden the food in advance: "Mom, I told you that our family doesn't have much food left. Do you believe it now? I don't think so either. I know your family is also in difficulty. Let’s do this. I will lend you thirty kilograms of sweet potatoes. This cannot be more. You have also seen what our family is like. I will still have to rely on these grains until next summer’s harvest.”

"Even so, thirty kilograms of sweet potatoes is too little..." Cui Zhaodi gritted her teeth. She was unwilling to settle for only thirty kilograms of sweet potatoes.

Mrs. Ji's face darkened: "Then what else do you want? You have also seen the situation of our family. It is all superficial. Thirty kilograms of grain is what my old lady tightened her belt to save from the mouths of the family. , If you don’t want to, just see the guests off!”

Cui Zhaodi had no choice but to take thirty kilograms of sweet potatoes and leave the Shen family.

"Mom, does our family really have no food to eat?" Du Shi became uneasy.

"I saw a lot of cornmeal here last time, why is there only this little left?" Wang murmured, she couldn't be wrong.
