In the end, Lin Lan got 100 yuan and rations according to the population.
When old man Han handed over the hundred dollars to Lin Lan, his heart pounded, "Mother Dawang, this money is not easy to come by, save it well and don't spend it indiscriminately."
Don't send it back to your mother's house!
Lin Lan smiled and said, "Don't worry, Dad, I will definitely spend the money well."
The family still has to buy furniture, cotton clothes, quilts, and go to school. This one hundred yuan looks like a lot, but it’s actually not worth spending.
She didn't feel it herself, and felt that 100 yuan was nothing, and several people onlookers were already jealous and sour in their hearts. They counted their own family, and they couldn't even get ten yuan. Others were good, and they took out a hundred at once.
According to the old lady's stingy way, she took out a hundred, I'm afraid there are still five to eight hundred.
Many people thought of this shining eyes, and couldn't help but muttered and swallowed.
When Lin Lan took the money, he pulled it, but he couldn't pull it.
Lin Lan tried hard, but still couldn't pull it. He immediately understood his worries and assured him, "Dad, don't worry, I will never send it back to my parents' house. I have five children to raise."
Only then did Old Han reluctantly let go of his hand, and Lin Lan immediately ordered the money and stuffed it into his pocket.
Everyone glanced at her pocket.
After the grain is weighed, it is divided into households.
I got a half-finished iron rod, a broom that was about to be bald, a few dishes and chopsticks, a basket, two broken lids, cooking utensils, etc., and nothing else.
Lin Lan rolled her eyes and said, "Can we share one tree in our family? Look, when my father and I got married, we didn't have anything at all, and now there are so many children in our family, is it possible to get a tree to take care of the family? Son?"
Don't say anything else, I want one for the desk and one for the wardrobe, right
Unexpectedly, she wanted a lot. Old Hantou thought that she didn't have that knowledge, and it was probably his son's idea.
Thinking that his son would play tricks, he sighed and nodded, "Okay."
When the old lady in the room heard it, she rushed out immediately, "No way! The tree at home is going to help Jinyu and Jinbao get married!"
Sister-in-law Han pulled Brother Han to the side and kept silent. It was obvious that the father and mother were biased, but the father was not so obvious, and the mother was too biased.
Han Yongfang felt that it was a bit too much to hear.
The old man waved his hand, almost unable to speak.
Han Qingsong couldn't bear to see his father like that. He wanted to say no, but he still watched Lin Lan shut his mouth.
After sharing the money, grain, family and trees, there is nothing left.
These are also written in the family separation document, which can also be used as a basis for other sons to separate families in the future.
People think so.
Lin Lan said, "Uncle Party Secretary, why don't you preside over it and specify the regulations for the future retirement. It's so clear, we will know what to do in the future."
If you don't make it clear, the old lady will definitely toss her son with filial piety.
It's a birthday, and you want money. Those who celebrate the New Year and festivals need money. When your younger siblings go to school and get married, they want money.
She had something good, and the old lady came to ask for it confidently.
Han Qingsong is not good at words.
Now set the rules, so she can fight back against the old lady.
This was blocking the old lady's back road, deeply hurt the old lady Han, and other people's faces were not very good-looking.
Lin Lan was not used to them. She was a shrew, and she had to have the privilege of a shrew.
Who has seen a shrew and reasoned with people!
…
However, Han Yongfang nodded, agreeing with her concept, "Qingsong's daughter-in-law is a good idea. In the future, each family will also do the same, so as to save you all the trouble."
Many people say that it is a separation of families, but the division of responsibilities and obligations is not clear. When the time comes, brothers will turn their faces into enemies, and there will be many.
Han Yongfang didn't want so much bullshit in his own jurisdiction. This method is good, so he will copy it.
Several of their experienced elders muttered for a while according to the actual situation, and then agreed that when the old couple passed the age of 60, they might not be able to earn the food for export, so the sons would make up for it, and each of the four sons would contribute a share. After the age of 66, you can do whatever you want, if you don’t want to work, you don’t want to do it. All four sons contribute to the ration, according to the actual pension standard, to contribute money, etc.
The old lady shouted through the window, "Jinbao and Jinyu are not married yet."
Han Yongfang said: "This one has regulations. When the younger brother and sister get married, the dowry and dowry will be divided into four parts, and the family will pay one share."
Of course, this dowry and dowry are the current standards, and you can't deliberately ask for more.
Write down everything that has been negotiated, in triplicate, and keep one copy for the brigade. In the future, other people can also divide it as usual.
In this way, everyone was convinced and happy - although the old lady felt that Han Yongfang was partial to Han Qingsong's family.
Sister-in-law Han also asked euphemistically how to divide the family after Xiao Si got married, and what the old man meant, he would talk about it later.
The second sister-in-law Han was unhappy, and the family's money was distributed to the third and third families. Then, when they separated, there would be no more hair!
Sister-in-law Han knew that this was the compensation that Old Han gave to Sanfang, and it was considered a debt from the past. In fact, in the final analysis, 100 yuan was a lot, but it was not enough to compensate Sanfang.
After all, this money was earned by Han Qingsong.
It doesn't matter if you don't get married. If you get married and have a baby, most of the money should be given to the family for three bedrooms. The old lady has been holding flowers for her younger son and daughter, and she doesn't care about anything.
Father-in-law is also staying behind.
Lao Hantou naturally has his own set of pension philosophy.
In fact, he is also partial, partial to young sons and daughters, old children, it is human nature.
But he is not as unreasonable as the old lady, and he is still measured. According to the habit of his grandfather and father, he treated his son with a bowl of water on the surface, so that when he was old, the sons would try their best and not compare and argue with each other.
If you are too partial to one, the sons will get angry when they are old, saying that the parents are partial to the younger ones, so let the younger ones take care of them.
When they are old and can't work anymore, isn't it the son and daughter-in-law who have the final say
Even if the government is backing it up, what's the use? The government does not provide pensions, so the son still has to pay for food.
This is also the insight left by the ancestors from generation to generation. Old Hantou does not understand the big truth, but he wants to listen to the experience of the older generation, because his grandfather is like this.
No matter how eccentric the mother is, as long as the father keeps the bowl as level as possible, the son will be grateful and will not treat the mother badly for the father.
The opposite is true.
But if the two elders are biased, then the son's complaints will be silent, and he will not dare to vent when he is young. When he becomes a father-in-law and a grandfather, he will have dignity at that time. , and to live with his breath.
At that time, his grievances would be overwhelming, and no one could bear it.
The old man has now given his son money and food, and tried his best to meet the requirements of his daughter-in-law, so that his son and daughter-in-law can't complain, at least on the surface, in front of the big guys, he is fair and just.
When it comes to retirement, the third son must also do his best, and he must not complain, otherwise he will not take care of himself. If there is a conflict, everyone should help themselves.
He also believed that the third child was a filial child, and the money was worth it, but it was a pity that the wife couldn't see it through.
After the separation of the family, the old lady "fell ill", wearing plaster every day, sighing, half-dead, and complaining all day long that the old man evacuated the house and gave it to his three sons.
"You also said that you are not partial, but I think you are partial to the third family! I had already planned to buy a coat for Jinyu this year with cloth and cotton tickets! This is not good enough!"
"What do you know, I'm doing it for your own good!" Old Hantou was smoking a cigarette bag.
It's okay to be here, the children will not do well, if you leave, the old woman's temper will be like that, and the children will all dislike it when the time comes.
So he is also paving the way, in case he really leaves early, they can also look at themselves and treat the old lady better.
These days, there are many old brothers who go there when they are in their 60s. Old Han Tou doesn't even dare to think that he will live to his 70s or 80s.
But the old lady couldn't think of it at all. Her eyes could only see in front of her eyes, and she could only see that her precious children were suffering.
It takes years to starve to get the money back!
She muttered again that when the time came, she had to get back the cotton ticket from the third room first, so that Lin Lan could not get it.
"Jinbao, Jinyu, why don't you two come back?" The old lady called her heart and scolded again, "The second child is unreliable, let you send letters to your younger brothers and sisters, where did you die? Yes I'm not jealous of them, so I didn't send a letter at all?"
The second brother Han, who was annoyed in the yard, heard that, not to mention the grievances.
The family's food was divided among the three rooms, and they were jealous. At this moment, the old lady was complaining about him again. He stomped his foot and slammed the door out.
Here, the clouds are bleak, and there are mourning voices everywhere, but Lin Lan is laughing and happy there.
…
Lin Lan crossed her hips and instructed the men and children to put the food and household items brought home.
"The noodle tank, yes, just such a small tank, put it in the house, cover it with a gasket to save the mice."
"Let's put the other one in that basin, there's nothing else..."
"These first... hey, pile them up... in the kang cave."
The family is divided into a half-large tank and a small tank. There is simply not enough food in it, so I have to buy two large ones.
In addition, I have to buy a few basins, one water tank, two water shovels...
In this way, the household to live a life has to buy a set.
Han Qingsong watched her click this, count that, and calculate what else to buy. She looked attentively. In the dim light, those black eyes were very beautiful.
He couldn't help but feel a little confused.
Lin Lan turned her head to meet his eyes, and smiled sweetly at him, "The day after tomorrow is an episode, we have to catch an episode and buy some black goods back."
She smiled so beautifully.
This was the first time she smiled at him so nicely.
Han Qingsong suddenly felt a tightness in his throat and panicked with thirst, so he hurried to drink some water.
Lin Lan counted again, "I still have to collect cloth tickets and cotton tickets, and go to rip cloth to buy cotton. The quilts at home and the children's cotton-padded clothes have to be mended. Dawang's is too short, so I'll just make a new one and replace it with a new one. The one that came down was Tiantian cotton for Erwang to wear, Erwang's was changed to Sanwang, Sanwang's was given to Xiaowang, and Xiaowang's was dismantled and he sewed cotton pants..."
I don't know why, but it's useless to whisper there, but Han Qingsong thinks it's very good, and he can't hear enough.
The next day, when Lin Lan went to work, she discussed with the women directors and other advanced women who were more talkative, whether she could use the cloth tickets and cotton tickets that her family would distribute at the end of this year to exchange the free tickets with everyone.
"I'm not afraid of the jokes of my aunts and sisters. I just broke up, and everything is tattered. It's going to get cold. When it snows, our children don't have all their cotton-padded clothes. At the end of the year, my family of seven will return it to you."
Lin Lan knew that according to her previous popularity, it was impossible to borrow from the whole village.
The reason why advanced elements can evaluate the advanced is that there is something special about her. Even if she doesn't agree with her behind her back, she will not speak coldly in front of her.
The director of women saw that she was so kind now, and the way she treated people and things was very different from before, she was very happy, she felt that she was well-educated and her face was bright, "Qingsong's family, you leave this matter to me, you won't be able to get too much, As far as the cloth tickets of your family of seven are concerned, I can still pick them up."
"Thank you, Sister-in-law Huaihua." Lin Lan quickly thanked.
Compared with previous years, the economy has improved significantly now. In the past, an adult would issue cloth tickets of three to five feet a year, and he could not make a single piece of clothing. Now the adults make one zhang of cloth a year, and there is still a surplus to make one piece, and the family gathers together to do what is needed first.
There are seven people in Lin Lan's family, adults are two feet of cloth, half-old children are seven and a half feet, and Sanwang and Xiaowang are also five feet.
There is also cotton. An adult is two and a half catties of cotton a year, and a child is one and a half catties.
Fortunately, cotton coats and quilts are not made new every year, and they are worn for several years. Only the children need to make up and modify them.
Dong Huaihua moved quickly. After Lin Lan told her, she brought the cotton ticket and cloth ticket to Lin Lan that night, "Qingsong daughter-in-law, when you come down at the end of the year, you must remember to give me the cotton ticket. Don't give it to anyone else."
She was also afraid that Lin Lan would take it back to her mother's house to show off.
Lin Lan smiled and said, "Sister-in-law Huaihua, I'll tell you today, you don't need to give me the ticket when you get down, you just take it away according to the number. If you have a loan, you should pay it back, you should help me, I will Thank you."
The invoice will not be issued until the end of the year, and it will be too late to make cotton-padded clothes after getting the ticket.
Dong Huaihua didn't expect her to be so sensible now, and she was more and more willing to talk to her. Generally speaking, people who do guidance work always hope that their guidance objects can improve, and they will correct their mistakes, so that they will feel a sense of accomplishment.
After dinner in the evening, the family didn't go out to chat, Lin Lan sat on the kang to put away rags, and by the way, reminded the children of the precautions for tomorrow.
Han Qingsong borrowed a carpenter's house, and got a few broken door panels that others had removed, and nailed a small bench there.
Dawang, Erwang and Sanwang help him.
Mai Sui and Xiao Wang helped Lin Lan on the kang.
Han Qingsong said: "Tomorrow, you can just go buy it, and let them put it together for you. I'll borrow a car to bring it back when I get off work in the afternoon."
Lin Lan smiled, "Okay."
She instructed Erwang and Mai Sui, "Don't play outside at noon, and bring Xiaowang back to cook early."
Erwang and Sanwang both happily responded.
She also called by name: "Sanwang, you are not allowed to go to Nandagou to go into the water, you can only play in the Xihe."
Sanwang smiled, but did not agree.
"Da Wang..." Lin Lan glanced hesitantly. The boy was digging wood with his shirtless shirt on. However, he still didn't speak to her for the past few days, and he didn't know what was wrong.
Han Qingsong said, "Dawang will go to work for your mother in the future."
"No, no, he's still young, he has to go to school, what kind of work..." Lin Lan hurriedly stopped him.
"It's settled." Han Qingsong's tone was relentless.
Dawang was digging wood in the corner, but he didn't say a word.
Lin Lan continued to say something else, there were too many children and too many naughty eggs, so she had to nagging repeatedly, for fear that Sanwang and Dawang would cause trouble.
A few children didn't feel annoyed at all listening to Lin Lan's nagging, but were very happy. Because instead of crying and scolding at every turn, they would rather her nagging like someone else's mother.
Xiaowang squeezed his towel, resting his head on Lin Lan's waist, with his little feet on the windowsill, bit by bit, muttering, "Mother's voice is getting better and better."
Then fell asleep.
…
When Lin Lan went to the market the next day, he found that there were six or seven women gathered in the brigade, and they all asked for leave to go to the market together.
It seems that I haven't been to the market for too long, and I can't hold on.
Shanzui Village is not far from the commune, but because everyone has to go to work and cannot ask for leave casually, the commune is not so easy to get to.
Generally, unless there is no kerosene and salt at home, and the neighbors have borrowed it, they will basically not ask for leave to go to the market.
When they saw that Lin Lan was also going to the market, someone greeted her, "Daughter-in-law Qingsong, let's go, let's go together."
Lin Lan didn't want to be with them. She said she was greeting her, and they didn't have any friendship. The original owner had had a bad relationship with many of them before. Now, I'm afraid she's drinking pesticides to change her temperament and split up the family. When I came back, I wanted to inquire about fresh gossip and go back to show off.
She shook her head, "No, I'm in a hurry to walk fast."
As he said that, he walked away like a gust of wind.
Two of the female members pouted, "You said that she has such a virtuous character that as soon as she has money, she is full of money, but Han Qingsong didn't even let her go."
"If you have children and daughters, how can you just leave?"
At first, they wanted to compete with Lin Lan, but it was natural for them to speak more slowly.
It didn't take long for them to see Lin Lan's figure.
Lin Lan was also suffering very much. Although it was only a few miles away, she was still very tired. She just didn't want to go on the same road with those women, so she gritted her teeth and hurryed.
Fortunately, when they reached the fork in the road, they came across a mule cart with five or six commune members going to the market. When they saw her walking by a woman, they greeted her.
Lin Lan quickly thanked her, but she didn't expect to hitch a ride.
At the fair, Lin Lan said goodbye to the people. She stood at the entrance of the market, looking at the bustling crowd, a little confused.
The original owner had no money or time. To be honest, he really hadn't caught up with any episodes, and Lin Lan couldn't gather much useful information.
She observed it first and found that most of the collections were selling black goods, food, food, and handmade utensils. There were no high-end items, clothes, shoes and fabrics.
Anyway, as long as you use coupons and tickets, there are basically no tickets here, presumably they are in short supply. If anyone has a way, they will be rushing to buy them if they don't go out, and there is no chance to get the set.
She strolled around, first quietly observed the price, and when she knew what to do, she went to buy two large glazed urns to hold the grain, and two small glazed urns, so that she could pickle pickles, and two or three medium corrugated urns. Tanks, one is a water tank, one is for sundries, and the other one is always useful anyway. I also need to buy a few tiled basins and glazed basins, those for mixing noodles, for washing faces, for washing feet…
Pots, crocks and the like cost 30 cents a piece, a small jar 50 cents, a medium jar 70 cents, and the large jars are all glazed and heavy, which is more expensive than ordinary black goods, so it costs 1.21 per bite.
Lin Lan called it cheap! She picked a lot, and asked them to send two pots and two pots.
The crock pot can be used as a chamber pot in winter, hehe.
Buy, buy, buy... The three father and son who sell goods can't close their mouths, where is the big hand, the God of Wealth!
Ukrainian goods are big and occupy a lot of space. The three of them can't pull a few big cylinders. She bought them all. Isn't it shocking
Lin Lan was still muttering that the black goods on the collection were all shoddy jars and pots made by themselves in the countryside, and they were actually not related to porcelain.
Fragile and unhealthy.
Now the members of the commune basically use these, as well as the noodles, hot soup cans, big pots, etc. Lin Lan is worried that some heavy metals will dissolve, so she has to go to the commune to see if she can buy a few coarse porcelain bowls, Porcelain pots, porcelain soup pots.
She saw that she had accidentally bought too much. If Han Qingsong could pull back one or two cylinders, he wouldn't be able to fit so many cars there
She discussed with the seller of Ukrainian goods, "Uncle, you see that I buy so much, and my home is not far from here. You can take it to me when it's time for collection."
The boss was a father with two sons. After summing it up, he said cheerfully, "Okay."
After all, they sold Lin Lan's money for days.
After negotiating, Lin Lan went to buy something else.
This year, the law and order are good, and the reputation is good, and there is absolutely nothing wrong with making an appointment at the fair.
Lin Lan went to buy some straw goods again, including straw boxes, small boxes, rattan baskets, baskets, and wicker baskets.
In addition, I also bought a few cover pads, grate baskets, grate beams, and grate lamps.
I also bought a few polished wooden sticks, and went back to pack hoes, shovels, and shovels.
Lin Lan bought a bunch of them, big and small, put them all together, and put them in a jar to send them together.
So cheap! Not a lot of money in total!
Straw is especially cheap, you can buy the same for a cent or two.
The baskets are more expensive, but the baskets are super cheap.
Section sister buy buy buy!
The sellers are all dumbfounded, where is the stupid woman... God of Wealth, hurry up and give her all the many small baskets and small baskets that are not easy to sell.
Lin Lan also sighed that the folk customs at this time were really simple!
Win-win, everyone is happy.
She didn't know it herself, but this purchase has caused a great sensation in the episode. They all said that there was a woman who was very good at it, and the sellers of black goods and straw-woven goods were almost sold out.
When several women in Shanzui Village heard this, they all thought of Lin Lan, "No way?"
"Why not, she has a hundred dollars!"
"Han Qingsong gave her such a mess?!"
Their mother-in-law or men hold all the money in their family, and when they go to the market, they also decide to buy what they need, so they don't need to buy more.
"What a prodigal woman, you said, who can't nail the cover pad? And the basket, my mother-in-law will make it up."
"That's right, there's that shovel handle, so why don't you buy it? Can't you cut one at home? Give me a dollar and I'll cut a bundle for her!"
They were filled with righteous indignation, as uncomfortable as Lin Lan spent her own money.
A woman next to them heard them talk for a long time, and finally came up and asked, "Sisters-in-law, are you talking about the old Han family in Shanzui Village?"
"Yes."
"My mother's family is Linjiatun, right?"
"It's her, do you know her?"
The woman snorted, "I know her." She said and ran away with the basket in her hand.
…
Lin Lan turned to the commune after "sweeping" the episode.
This time, she was just carrying a hundred yuan, and she didn't know why she bought the vanity and refreshment of the world's luxury buyers.
It's the kind of thing that looks at a stall, glances, points, this and that... No, I'll wrap the rest.
Haha, thinking about how the father and son were tongue-tied when she bought black goods, she laughed.
Wearing patched beggars' clothes, with jagged short hair like a dog's gnawing, walking on straw sandals, and carrying a rag bag, Lin Lan walked in a rage, stunned to step out of the fashionable feeling of the runway.
Sharp lady!
Sister Sharp suffered a setback when she arrived at the supply and marketing cooperative.
The supply and marketing cooperative is not big, with the facade of three rooms and various revolutionary slogans posted on the south wall, "Bless the great Chairman Mao with a long life without borders", "We must fight against private interests and criticize repairs!" "Oppose corruption and waste"!
There are three counters on the left, middle and right. The left side sells cloth, clothes, shoes and socks. Unfortunately, there is no cloth at this moment.
In stock no ticket, with ticket out of stock!
Special code, are you angry
She had planned to buy all the cloth and cotton tickets.
Seeing so many people lining up, Lin Lan had no choice but to buy something else first.
Newly established households can use the household registration book to buy ironware, such as hoes, iron rods, shovels, shovels, kitchen knives, etc. These ironwares are not on the collection, and like salt, oil, and cloth, they are all purchased and sold.
All the iron objects are too heavy, so she told the salesperson to store them here and wait for a man to pull them.
no problem.
She bought two sea bowls, a large enamel bowl, and ten thick porcelain bowls. She wanted to buy an enamel pot and a thermos but couldn't. These require special coupons, which she did not have. I bought another round mirror, a comb, a grate, and also bought a few red headbands and hairpins, which do not require tickets.
She bought some stationery, saw that there was still a flute in the corner, and asked if she could get a ticket.
The salesperson was eager to sell it, and in a small country place, no one played with musical instruments at all, let alone spent their spare money to buy this stuff. This thing hasn't been sold since it came in, and it's lying there in ashes.
When she saw Lin Lan buying this thing, she wondered if she was the music teacher at the school.
Lin Lan wanted to buy some dry goods such as red dates, dried shrimps, and kelp, but they all needed non-staple food tickets, so they couldn't buy them casually.
If they didn't sell it, she really wanted to slap 100 yuan on the table and shouted, "Give me a picture of 100 yuan to distribute the goods!"
She had to figure out a way.
She put some of her books on the counter, "The sea is sailing by the helmsman. The People's Liberation Army is our cutest person. Give me five pounds of red dates."
The salesperson was stunned for a moment, "The sun rises in the east, it's really impossible without books."
Lin Lan pushed her notebook over and let her take a good look.
The salesman smiled and waved his hand, "No way, you are from your village, you have to ask for the commune."
Lin Lan snorted inwardly, I still don't know if I want a commune? But the commune is only given to your employees who eat commercial grain, and not to our commune members.
"A poor and lower-middle peasant family, my man is from the People's Liberation Army, a comrade, please be accommodating and weigh a few pounds, the child is anemic."
The salesperson became more and more convinced that Lin Lan was a teacher, and quickly picked up the household registration book and looked at it, and found that there was no label on the back, it was a member of Shanzui Village.
She was a little stunned and didn't know what to say for a while.
Although the Cultural Revolution was in full swing, it was not so active in big cities, remote areas, especially in the countryside. What's more, the situation in the second half of the 1970s was generally stable.
Below the county seat, in the commune villages, because many are uneducated farmers, it is impossible for everyone to memorize the quotations.
Not only can they not memorize well, but they may also make mistakes and make jokes, so the cadres instructed the advanced members to study and exercise regularly, while the ordinary members concentrated on production.
Therefore, there is no need to shout slogans in the commune supply and marketing cooperatives.
She was stunned by what Lin Lan said.
"Comrade, I didn't lie to you, look at my hukou. My man is a soldier and he is not at home all the year round. I have five children in my family, and I don't enjoy his benefits. I just split up and I can't even eat at home. From now on, each of the five children has yellow face and thin skin, I can buy some red dates to supplement blood, and some small shrimp skin and kelp to supplement calcium, there is no problem, right?"
The salesperson was still embarrassed, "There are regulations, you can't sell without the ticket and the non-staple food book issued by the commune."
"Why don't you sell it to me? My man is in the People's Liberation Army. I have never enjoyed any benefits at home, and I don't need help from the government. Why can't I buy some red dates with my own money? That's not good, I want to see your leaders!"
"Just sell it to this sister-in-law. It's not easy for others, and it's still a glorious family member." Someone shouted from a member of the commune who lined up to buy cloth.
Most members of the community do not buy this kind of thing, so they are happy to be good people.
In the end, the sales clerk had no choice but to go to the back and ask the old boss.
The old boss took a look at the household registration book, and he knew who Han Qingsong was by looking at his name. After all, there were only a few officers in the entire commune.
He asked about Lin Lan's situation again, and then personally gave Lin Lan three catties of dried red dates, five catties of kelp, and one catty of dried shrimps.
Lin Lan originally wanted to try it out, but she didn't expect it to work. She happily paid the money, packed it up, and put it here until Han Qingsong came to pick it up.
After buying these, Lin Lan also went to ask about the cloth.
There were also a few members shouting, "It's hard to come here, how can it be gone? The day before yesterday, it was said that there is stock today, why is it gone?"
"That's right, I came to line up early in the morning, and I saw that there was a car coming for delivery, how could it be gone? It's impossible!"
"There must be some in the warehouse, but I don't sell it on purpose, and I want to wait for the holiday to increase the price!"
At this time, although it is collectively priced and purchased by ticket, sometimes the price will be temporarily increased in order to cope with various festivals.
Lin Lan couldn't help but be a little curious, how could this be possible
She went to the front, slammed it on the counter and looked in, but the New Year is not the festival, why is it gone
The sales clerk was a saleswoman dressed in white flowers with two big braids. She glanced at Lin Lan indifferently, and said impatiently, "No, no, stand back, it's useless for you to shout."
Don't look down on others. Sister-in-law, I am rich, and Lin Lan is a little unhappy.
The sales clerk impatiently wiped her hands with a feather duster, "Back away, what should I do if it gets dirty?"
I wipe!
Lin Lan was furious. My clothes were worn out, but which one of your eyes sees me dirty? After I wear it, I scrub and wash it every day, and the clothes are washed every day!
As soon as she got angry, she slapped the counter, "I want to buy cloth, buy cotton, don't use it for me!"
Don't forget she's a bitch!
The privilege of a shrew is that she can watch her mood anytime, anywhere, regardless of the occasion.
Of course, now it's not about the mood, but about the need to sprinkle.
With such a roar of Hedong, not only the salesperson, but even a few shouting members were stunned for a moment.
Immediately, the members of the original queue all lined up behind her to give her a boost, "Yes, we have to queue for two days to buy cloth."
Lin Lan: …
The sales clerk looked at her like a shrew, with her hands on her hips and her eyes wide open. Although she was a rural woman, she was very imposing, but like a female cadre, she couldn't help but feel a little weaker in her heart.
Compared with a simple and snobbish salesperson like her, Lin Lan's eyes were naturally much more sinister, and she could see through the salesperson at a glance.
Lin Lan smiled and said: "I said this big girl, you are also a salesperson. If the members make trouble, how can you bear it? Since there must be goods in the warehouse, you can either apply for your leadership, or take it out and send us away quickly. There are only a few of us, how much cloth can we buy? If you wait, there will be more and more people, and some will be noisy."
The salesman's lips moved. For some unknown reason, she felt that Lin Lan's black eyes could read people's hearts. She said, "There is still cloth and cloth, but cotton and cotton are really not enough."
Hearing what she said, Lin Lan felt that she was also a real person, not that kind of snobbery, who cheated with just one sentence.
"The eldest sister is a sincere person. We believe you, so let's talk about it."
The salesman took a deep breath and had to take out the cloth that he was quietly collecting and wanted to resell at a high price in partnership with others.
She had just been tricked into joining the team, and she was still unskilled, but she was deceived by Lin Lan.
Soon everyone lined up to start tearing the cloth. Lin Lan had a lot of cloth tickets. First, he tore off the cloth tickets that were about to expire in the near future. After a few feet, he would take a look at them before pulling.
After all, there are not many cloths, and others are still lining up, so there is always a point.
When the cloth was torn, it was even more chaotic. The girl with big braids was not very good at accounting, which led to the opinions of the members who were even worse at accounting, and they all said that she gave more money.
Lin Lan saw that the big braid was savagely scolding people, and at the same time sweating profusely, she casually helped settle the accounts, lest those members who couldn't settle accounts and liked to entangle themselves would be endless.
Everyone didn't know her, but because she dared to challenge the salesperson before, she was willing to listen to her, and they believed her.
An old lady said that she didn't know how to settle accounts, and she didn't trust the salesperson, so she asked Lin Lan to do the math.
After Lin Lan gave it up, she smiled and said, "Big sister, I believe in you, and I believe what you say."
Lin Lan laughed so embarrassingly, Auntie, you are my Auntie! Please don't call me big girl!
Behind the counter on the opposite east side, an old cadre stood at some point. He was wearing four pockets, with a pen in his left breast pocket, and looked at the cloth selling counter with relish.
While looking at the situation before asking the next salesperson.
When he arrived, he smiled and said, "This woman has a brain and a temper, and she is a businessman."
"President, what do you mean?" The salesman sensed something sensitively.
The old boss shook his head, "It's nothing, work hard and serve the people."
Lin Lan tugged at three feet of cloth. She didn't buy any cotton, so she was a little worried.
She looked at the time and wanted to go to the slaughterhouse to buy some meat, but as soon as she got out of the supply and marketing cooperative, the old lady tugged at La Linlan's sleeve, "Big sister, I have my own cloth, do you want it?"
Lin Lan immediately pulled the old lady to hide in the corner, "Big... sister, if you want, as much as you want!"
With the earnest eyes of the old lady, she was embarrassed to call her auntie.
In fact, after 63 years, the life of the members has improved. Now cotton and cloth are not so nervous. The tension in the old Han family was caused by the old lady exploiting the big guy to provide gold and jade. The local cultivation of cotton is not as strict as it used to be. Some people plant cotton at the ditch along the river. After harvesting cotton, they can weave cloth.
"You can just call me Big Sister Liu. Our Gaolaozhuang grows a lot of cotton, with good water and soil. We can harvest wherever we grow. We are richer than your Shangengen."
"Sister Liu, where are you clothed?"
Miss Liu whispered: "What about the alley, you can't just take it out and let the administrator cut off the tail and confiscate it."
Although tail-cutting is not so severe now, and no one is in charge of buying and selling food and vegetables, industrial products are still not allowed.
In particular, materials such as cloth and cotton should be kept secret in private.
Lin Lan followed the old lady to the alley, where a wheelbarrow was parked, and a simple and honest young man was waiting there holding a large sycamore leaf.
There were two pieces of cloth on the car, one of dark beige natural color and one of three-color plaid yarn-dyed cloth. Due to the limitation of the loom, this cloth was only about one foot wide, but four feet long.
Homemade cloth is not as fashionable and beautiful as the bought cloth, which is not uncommon for urbanites, and people from the countryside also pursue woven cloth and chemical fiber cloth.
Lin Lan felt that this was a good thing, and sewing a quilt was the best. And make a bed sheet, use it as a mat in summer, absorb sweat and cool, it's very good.
The price is also beautiful!
The woven fabrics of the supply and marketing cooperatives are about three feet a piece, the cheapest one is 28 cents per foot, and the better ones are 40 or 50 cents, which is still very expensive for the current income.
Soil-woven cloth is cheap, natural-colored cloth is less than a cent per foot, the whole piece is cheap at only three yuan and five, and the yarn-dyed cloth is four and five yuan per piece, and the whole number is easy to calculate.
Two pieces of cloth are only eight dollars.
Influenced by the consumption concept in the previous life, Lin Lan felt that it was cheap!
However, buying things is a matter of habit, and if you buy more, you will always have to counter-offer and ask for a cheaper price.
At this time, Big Sister Liu began to sell miserably. It was not easy at home, it was not easy to weave cloth, the back was sore and so on, and she even showed Lin Lan her distorted fingers.
The short knuckles of the fingers were twisted, and it was very unbearable to see, Lin Lan suddenly moved with compassion.
Influenced by the value concept of labor in previous lives, I always feel that it is not easy for others to turn cotton into cloth.
The cotton was planted and cared for for several months, and it was finally recovered. Cotton seeds were ginned, cotton stretched, cotton slivers rubbed, thread spinning, thread winding, dyeing, sizing, threading, knitting, and weaving.
It can be said that it is really not easy. Before getting on the machine, a lot of work was done. After getting on the machine, I had to sneak around to weave. I was often so tired that my back was sore and my eyes were blurred.
Out of respect for the working people, Lin Lan felt that it was okay not to bargain, after all, the market price was like this.
And at this time, she has not fully integrated into the current environment. There is always a feeling that a developed society looks down on the working people in difficult times, thinking that they are too hard, and a few cents are enough for people to eat for a long time.
After all, a penny can buy a bunch of grass, and eighty cents can buy a pound of fine noodles... But when she was paying, she felt a little bit of a pain, thinking about how hard it was to earn money at this time, she was exhausted for seven or eight days. A work point is worth four or five cents.
"Sister Liu, I won't make a counteroffer. Don't you still have tassels for sale? Give it to us both."
Sister Liu is also refreshing, "I still have three left to give you, and a bunch of cloth heads. If you don't dislike it, I will give you too."
Lin Lan naturally did not dislike it.
Sister Liu said with a smile: "Big sister, you have such a good brain, you can settle accounts and buy things."
Lin Lan smiled and said, "Eldest Sister Liu, you are even more good at selling. Only those who buy at a loss will not sell at a loss."
Sister Liu laughed, and she was elated. She was the first person to buy two pieces of cloth.
The two pieces of cloth were still a little heavy, so Sister Liu asked her son to push a cart to help Lin Lan deliver it to the supply and marketing agency.
At this moment, a woman rushed in from outside the alley, "I'm looking for you now!"
Lin Lan thought she was a market manager, and suddenly burst into strength to carry two pieces of cloth and was about to run away, the woman shouted: "Lan Huahua, run a fart, stop for me! You bitch Lu Dongbin doesn't know the good-hearted goods. !"
