Su Hui plans to go to the recycle bin to see if there are other furniture, such as shelves or cabinets. If there are small boxes, they can be used. Books are also ready.

Zhang Baoguo is now in the third grade, and the next semester after the beginning of the spring will be the fourth grade. There is no textbook for the fourth grade yet, and Zhang Weiguo is going to school. He will be 8 years old in the beginning of spring. He can use the textbooks that Zhang Baoguo used, but he doesn’t need to purchase.

She hasn't paid attention to current affairs for a while, and if she has old newspapers or the like, she can take them back, read them herself, and even assign homework to her children.

The recycle bin was very big and messy. There were two people there. One was the old man, who was sitting on a chair and drinking tea slowly. When he saw her coming, he raised his eyelids: "What are you doing?"

There's a guy in the back, sorting those things into categories.

"Master, I'm here to look for textbooks for the children at home, as well as old newspapers."

The uncle took her to a shelf.

"This side is the textbooks. They are all here. You can find them slowly. They are newspapers. You pay a penny a catty."

This pile of textbooks is actually full of everything. Of course, some books that are not allowed in this era are not available. Those are burned, and the recycle bins recycle valuable things.

When Su Hui saw the textbook, she took it out and put it aside. There are not many classes now, so she quickly found all the textbooks from elementary school to junior high school. She only found two textbooks, and she also took them out. In addition, there was an ancient poem, a medical book, and mathematics or physics, which she didn't seem to understand, and she put them in the textbooks.

Then I went to get some recent newspapers, trying not to repeat them.

Seeing so many books she picked, the uncle was a little surprised: "You want so many?"

"I have four children in my family, and I am a teacher in the village. I want to buy it back to see if it can help."

It turned out to be a teacher.

The uncle nodded and weighed it.

The book is thin and doesn't look heavy, but the weight will increase if there are too many books. There are nearly 30 catties in total.

Then look at the furniture.

Now the source of these furniture is smashed and robbed other people's homes, and the ones full of capitalism have been smashed into firewood, and the rest are simple models with no carvings and paintings that conform to the social and national conditions.

Su Hui was a little disappointed. It seemed that the things that Sun Qiang pulled back last time might be good things that were kept privately. She looked around and didn't see any good things.

In the end, she picked out three boxes, asked them for an unused stick, put the book in the box, and carried it back.

One box for books, one box for sundries, and one box for the four brothers.

They were all very happy to have their own boxes, and they put their "babies" in it one after another. There were round stones that they picked up with great difficulty, beautiful leaves, and broken glass that they picked up from somewhere... all kinds of things. various.

Then Su Hui faced another problem. She bought the cloth back, but she didn't know how to make clothes.

But the original body knows it, just like cooking, she should pick it up quickly, right

Su Hui was thinking uncertainly, thinking about making clothes, and was a little eager to try.

never done, fresh.

She started experimenting with old clothes. Now making clothes is very fast. The shape is just like that. Measure the size and sew them together.

Early in the morning, Zhang Chengye blew his whistle to call everyone to gather.

Today is the day for their food distribution.

In fact, the serious food distribution days are during the spring and autumn harvests. Now the distribution is some miscellaneous grains that have been harvested after the autumn harvest. However, in comparison, the bulk is still sweet potatoes, and there are also fine grains, but they are very few, and it is probably enough for the New Year. Make a fine meal.

Su Hui received the share from his own family. Zhang Gen looked at the pile of sweet potatoes and made an estimate. The second family's private land had not yet been planted, and there was no sweet potato subsidy for the private land. These were not enough to last until the spring harvest. I allocated two boxes of sweet potatoes that I had allocated to her, and it was almost done.

"Live a good life in the future, come and talk about any difficulties."

The children of the second child's family should be raised well no matter what.

After the distribution of food, there is another important event, that is, the distribution of money.

At this time, what they work every day is recorded as work points, and the work points are settled, and they are used to exchange for food, and only the surplus can be distributed. If there is not enough to eat, it will owe the collective.

Only when you are strong and have a lot of labor, a lot of work points, and a good year, can you save money, but generally speaking, it is very good if the money distributed by the whole family at the end of the year can reach 30. After deducting medical treatment and buying cloth Salt and other expenses, there is not much left.

Su Hui is one of those who have no money. When building a house, she exchanged her work points for wood and other things. It's good if it doesn't turn into a negative number.

When the money is divided, some families are happy and some are sad.

With no business of her own, Su Hui moved the food home, and Zhang Quan helped under Zhang Gen's instigation.

When he arrived at his second brother's house, he took a look around and found that the house had changed a lot from before.

The small things in the house have been added more neatly. It is no longer empty than before. The house is also clean and the private plot is leveled. Look at the soft ones, waiting for the spring to sow the seeds.

The sister-in-law lived a good life.

The closer to the new year, the stronger the taste of the new year. Just divided the food and money, and the next day is the day to go to the town to hand in the task pig.

Every village has a task, stipulating how many pigs to raise and hand in. In their village, there are special pig pens and special personnel in charge.

In addition, each of their households raises pigs privately, and they have to hand over half to the state, and then the remaining half is their own.

The half that is given to the country will also return a certain amount of meat tickets. For example, if a pig is 100 catties, 50 catties belong to the country, and you will be returned 30-50 catties of meat tickets to support the country, and then the remaining 50 catties will be used for the country. If you want to eat your own, you can take it home, but if you want to sell it, you must sell it to the country.

As long as one is capable, the family will raise a pig, and the biggest profit of the year depends on that pig.

Li Manfen raised a pig.

Many people can't afford to raise pigs, and they can't even eat enough for themselves. How can they have the energy to raise pigs? However, Zhang Gen and the others have sufficient manpower, and they can still afford to raise a pig.

When it was time to hand over the task pigs, Zhang Chengye drove the fattest pigs out with the hand-picked strong labor force, and rushed them to the town. The task was completed, and the rest belonged to their village. They asked the butcher to sharpen the knife, and the whole The screams of the pigs could be heard in the village, but the number of onlookers continued unabated.

This is meat, delicious meat!

Zhang Baoguo and his three younger brothers were also joining in the fun. Only Zhang Anguo, who heard the screams of the pigs, dared not go and stayed at home by himself.

Zhao Xialan looked at the screaming pig with bright eyes: "This pig is strong! It must be fat!"

Zhang Baoguo has eaten a lot of meat recently, but he hasn't become greedy at all. His eyes are fixed on the pork thigh and belly, and he can't pull it away.

Zhao Xialan was nervous: "Wait for the lottery, I must be lucky! Bless me, I must draw fat meat!"

Su Hui looked at the big fat pig, and felt a little regretful, why didn't she encounter so much meat when she went up the mountain, and in a few days, when her consciousness improved, she would go further into the mountain.

During the Chinese New Year, you should eat more abundantly, shouldn't you
