Wearing the shopping mall through the 70s

Chapter 65
After dinner, the lesbians were making dumplings, and the gay men were chatting nearby.It was also because the main hall was originally built spacious enough that it would not be crowded.

Even if I came back this year and saw Shen Ruoqing wearing new cotton-padded clothes, even Shen Yun and Shen Xue were wearing new clothes.Their family just made a cotton coat for their little daughter.Shen Xiangbei couldn't help but ask: "Mom, didn't you say that this year is not going well, and you haven't received much money from the reduced grain production? Why are you still living so well this year?"

And when he came back this year, the villagers he met praised him for his promise.It was true that Shen Xiangbei had become a regular employee, but with so many people praising him, he felt a little uneasy.

Shen Xiangnan chuckled: "Fourth, you didn't know this, right? It's thanks to my little sister that she recognized her as my godmother. She gave our family a lot of cotton coupons and cloth coupons, and also exchanged them for food, so we can have a good year this year."

Shen Xiangbei had heard his mother mention the matter of Shen Ruoqing's eldest brother who was involved in the black market before, so he asked in detail after hearing this.Su Jieru also pricked up her ears and listened.

"I told you outside that you brought these things back. Don't tell me outside." Mrs. Ji gave Shen Xiangnan a white look.

"Sure." Shen Xiangbei smiled bitterly. No wonder so many people in the village were trying to get close to him in their words. It turned out that there was still this kind of relationship.I'm afraid that in the eyes of the villagers, I have a big connection.

"Second brother, are you saying that all the fine grains our family eats now are all obtained by my little sister?" Su Jieru asked.

Shen Xiangnan said: "No, brother and sister, let me tell you, food is tight this year. Even if we replace all Xiliang with coarse grains, we still have to tighten our belts to live. But my little sister thinks that Qianqin is capable and is willing to help our family The vegetables are exchanged for grain. The rice we eat today and the flour for making dumplings are all exchanged for vegetables."

"How much are those vegetables worth? Can they be exchanged for so much fine grain?" Su Jieru didn't believe it, but everyone in the Shen family said so, so she couldn't help but not believe it.

Her thoughts came to life.

"Ruoqing, does your godfather still have some fine grain in his hand?"

Mrs. Ji narrowed her eyes: "Fourth daughter-in-law, why do you ask this?"

Su Jieru said: "Mom, the section chief of Xiangbei's unit will be promoted to director in the next year, so the position of section chief will be vacant. Originally, Xiangbei was junior and we didn't have much idea, but the original section chief let out the news, and as long as he took the job Fifty pounds of fine grain will get his recommendation."

"Even if you get the recommendation, you may not be able to become the section chief. How long will it take for the fourth child to become a full-time employee?" Wang said.

"When you get a chance, you have to give it a try, right?" Su Jieru looked at Mrs. Ji.

Shen Xiangbei also thought about it. Although the section chief only received a few yuan more monthly subsidy than ordinary employees, he was still a small leader. Of course he didn't want to miss this opportunity.

"It's just that the chance of recommendation is not high. If there are [-] kilograms of grain, wouldn't the probability be higher?" Shen Ruoqing said.

"This..." Shen Xiangbei stopped talking.If there are a hundred kilograms of grain packed up and down, then this matter must be a sure thing.But the problem is that in this day and age, who is willing to spend a hundred pounds of fine grain to manage a small section chief?Moreover, the couple only had a little over 100 yuan in savings left, which they originally planned to use to repay Mrs. Ji.

"This hundred kilograms of grain will be lent by me to you two. From now on, please think more about your sister's kindness to you." Mrs. Ji spoke. She couldn't tell that Shen Xiangbei and his wife couldn't afford it. Give money to buy food.

What Shen Ruoqing wants to do is to slowly push Shen Xiangbei to a high position, so that others will not doubt him if he comes up with good things in the future.The extra fifty kilograms of fine grain will be used to manage relationships. In the future, Shen Xiangbei will not be just a small section chief.

What Mrs. Ji wants is that Shen Xiangbei will be successful enough to become a junior leader, and then he will have the right to speak, and then he will be able to recruit her sweetheart into the factory as a worker.Wang's eyes were red. After making the dumplings, she went back to the house and complained to Shen Xiangnan: "Your mother is so biased. In the past, she only favored a sister-in-law, but now even her youngest son is so biased. My mother is here to borrow some." He was so pushy about the life-saving food that it embarrassed me, so I only gave him a little coarse grain to pass on. But then he turned around and was able to lend the fourth family a hundred pounds of fine grain!"

"Okay, okay, don't you know your mother's virtues? It's a bottomless pit. Besides, if the fourth child becomes successful, won't my elder brother's face also be bright?" Although Shen Xiangnan loves his wife, But it can be carried clearly.

"What's wrong with my mother? Didn't my mother just come to our house to borrow some food? How come it's a bottomless pit! Shen Xiangnan! If you don't explain clearly, I'm not done with you!"

No one knew about the farce in the second room. After Mrs. Ji agreed to lend Shen Xiangbei a hundred kilograms of grain, Shen Xiangbei's family discussed it in the room vacated by Mrs. Ji where Shen Yun and Shen Xue originally lived.

Shen Xiangbei first paid back 100 yuan to Mrs. Ji. Mrs. Ji said that when they leave tomorrow, they will take a hundred kilograms of polished rice with them, and it is up to them to pay back the food or the money.

This time, Shen Xiangbei and his wife brought a lot of things with them when they returned to Shen's house for the New Year.In addition to the fish, I also brought a piece of good-quality material, which was specially brought to Shen Ruoqing. This good-quality material has just become popular. Such a piece of material costs 14 yuan. Su Jieru had to ask someone to buy this material. .Shen Xiangdong, who was in the first house, was still recuperating, so Shen Xiangbei and his wife brought a can of malted milk to the first house, a box of the cheapest cream to the second and third bedrooms, and a jacket to Mrs. Ji. A little glutinous rice sticks, this is not a small gift.Perhaps Mrs. Ji's cheerful request to borrow a hundred kilograms of polished rice had this connection.

One hundred kilograms of polished rice nowadays is quite expensive. Even if it costs two yuan per kilogram, it still costs two hundred.What's more, you can't buy rice with 200 yuan now.

Speaking of which, they still took advantage of it.

When it’s time to stay up late on New Year’s Eve, the little carrot heads burst into laughter.

"Don't sleep, otherwise you won't get any lucky money." Shen Xiangnan teased the cute Shen Rongrong, and the little guy's eyelids were about to close.

"But I'm so sleepy."

"Don't listen to your second uncle. Eat your dumplings and go to bed. You will have the new year's money tomorrow. My dear, you go and have a sleep too." Mrs. Ji looked at them lovingly.

The younger ones ate dumplings and went to bed.

Shen Ruoqing didn't want to sleep.

"Mom, I'm not sleepy yet, why don't you go get some sleep first." This year is her first New Year after traveling through time, and she wants to stay up late.

"Okay, dear, here's this for you." Mrs. Ji handed over a big red envelope.

Shen Ruoqing did not refuse and accepted it generously.After Mrs. Ji left, Shen Ruoqing opened it and saw that it was ten yuan.

Mrs. Ji is old, so she goes to bed first.The three brothers Shen Xiangnan stayed until midnight. When they heard the first sound of firecrackers, they also set off the firecrackers they bought at home.

There was a constant crackling.
