Li Kangzhan went to his house to drink with Xie Sanwang and Accountant Xu.

Because of the kiss in the morning, Li Kangzhan was rude to the beauty, and Xiaofang, perhaps because of shyness, did not have much communication with her.

"Uncle, Accountant Xu, I respect you."

Li Kangzhan drank at least two taels of white wine in one gulp.

"Come to fight and keep drinking."

"No, let me slow down!"

Li Kangzhan took a bite of pork and drank wine.

"I have one more thing to trouble you. I like to collect some old objects. Uncle, Accountant Xu, please say hello to the captains and ask the folks below if they are willing to sell some bottles, cans, and old objects."

Xie Sanwang and Accountant Xu didn't say anything about Li Kangzhan's preference, but they both murmured in their hearts, what kind of preference is this? He actually likes some rags.

You still have to spend money to collect it? Isn’t this something you have money to burn? It’s too wasteful.

After dinner, Li Kangzhan was in a slightly tipsy state. He said goodbye to the Xie family, his daughter, and Accountant Xu, and was about to go back.

Xie Sanwang brought him a lot of mountain products, mushrooms, fungus...

Returning to the city, before getting off work, Li Kangzhan went to the factory for a walk.

As soon as he arrived at the kitchen, he saw Ma Hua surrounding Liu Lan and being attentive. Li Kangzhan thought that there was nothing wrong with the two of them being together.

Anyway, it's all true love. Li Huaide is finished. He hasn't had time to develop an extramarital affair with Liu Lan yet. Liu Lan hasn't done anything immoral yet. Ma Hua's family is poor and can't afford a wife. It's okay for the two of them to work together.

In later generations, a pair of bachelors went to their second marriage, and they brought oil bottles with them. Some of them were even original ones from the factory?

That layer of film can't be made with money?

Picked up my sister after get off work, three of us and two bicycles.

Silly Zhu: "Master, what do you think about the matter between Ma Hua and Liu Lan?"

Silly Zhu, who was belatedly aware of the situation, also discovered the little secret between Ma Hua and Liu Lan.

Li Kangzhan: “What do you think?”

"I sit and watch, I stand and watch!"

"You are already married and have a wife, so your apprentice can't ask for a wife?"

Silly Zhu scratched his head: "Master, that's not what I meant."

"I want to say that MCA can definitely marry someone better."

Li Kangzhan said: "You are not MCA. Maybe MCA thinks Liu Lan is the best?"

"Zhuzi, you are MCA's master, not your parents. Don't be greedy for love. If they become friends, we will bless them. If they don't, then they are not destined to be together."

"As for Liu Lan, she is down-to-earth and hard-working, and she is good at making a living. If the two of them were together, their lives would definitely be better than they are now."

Speaking of this, Shazhu also expressed his admiration: "Master, they are really capable. They go to the countryside every day to collect eggs and poultry, and they have accumulated a lot in the small courtyard."

Li Kangzhan: "Tomorrow let MCA ride a tricycle in the cafeteria and take it to the factory. It has been left for a long time today and the eggs are smelly."

The bicycle entered Nanluogu Alley and met many acquaintances along the way. Li Kangzhan greeted them all one by one.

The steel rolling mill is a large factory with ten thousand people, and there are not even a hundred but eighty workers living here. He is also the leader of the canteen, and Si Zhu is the chef, so they are all the workers who need to please.

Nothing else, just a bite to eat.

Maybe some people disagree, but ask the elderly at home. In the early 1960s, everyone really racked their brains for food.

This was an era of scarcity of food and clothing, especially in the early 1960s, when the hard times had just passed, and there were not many families who could eat as much as they wanted and had enough to eat.

There are fewer refined grains, and people eat more cornmeal, which is called cornmeal or cornmeal in the Northeast.

The vegetables are just pickles, cabbage, and potato seeds, that's it! It's good if you can eat it.

Not only country people go to the mountains to dig wild vegetables, but city people also go to the wilds to dig wild vegetables and steam wild vegetable steamed buns.

The steamed buns of this period were also different from those of the future. The steamed buns of later generations were made of two boxes of noodles, with sugar added to make them soft and sweet.

During this period, the steamed buns were cold and could be used as bricks. It was no exaggeration. The hard ones hit my body and it always hurt. I had to eat them with water or else I could choke to death.

So, what makes Silly Zhu show off his power is not the halo of his profession?

For those who wear patches, they have to be dignified, but there are also many people who wear patches.

In the countryside or other provinces, which common people don’t have patches, big or small, on their bodies?

How else would there be such a saying as, "Three years for the new, three years for the old, and another three years for mending."

This is all good. In this era, both the means of production and daily necessities are extremely scarce.

Grain, cooking oil, cotton, cloth and many other daily necessities are supplied in rationed amounts based on vouchers.

In order to boost agricultural production, chemical fertilizers were imported from the Sakura Country, all of which were "urea" and were packed in chemical fiber bags.

Many people spend a few cents to buy urea bags, cut them into pants, and wear fertilizer pants.

There is also a jingle: fertilizer bags can be used to make trousers, which saves money and cloth. The front is "riben" and the back is "urea".

Too far away...

At the gate of the courtyard, Qin Huairu was looking around.

"Silly pillar!"

When Qin Huairu saw Silhu, she approached him enthusiastically.

"Zhuzi, I'll go in first."

Li Kangzhan didn't want to have too much contact with Qin Huairu, he just wanted to be an ordinary neighbor.

As for Qin Huairu, even if he wanted to be a Cao thief, if he had the guts, he could only avoid it as much as possible.

"Don't!"

Silly Zhu didn't dare to let his master run away. It was difficult for him to face Qin Huairu alone. His family knew about his family affairs, and he was particularly afraid that he would be confused by Qin Huairu.

I'm also afraid that my other wife will misunderstand me if she finds out and won't let her go to bed with me when I get home.

"Master, don't leave."

Silly Zhu pulled Li Kangzhan and refused to let him go.

Li Kangzhan had no choice but to put his sister down from the front beam: "I'm going to do my homework."

Li Kangmei nodded, carried a small satchel and entered the courtyard, and greeted Qin Huairu very politely.

"Hello, Sister Qin."

"Kangmei is so good."

Qin Huairu wanted to rub Li Kangmei's head, but Li Kangmei frowned and ducked away.

Her head can only be touched by her brother and sister Yuyu.

Qin Huairu looked at Li Kangzhan who was jumping away and said awkwardly: "This kid is so embarrassed."

"Sister Yuyu, sister Yuyu, are you back?"

"Let's drink malted milk..."

The first thing Li Kangmei did when he came home from school was to look for He Yuyu.

Silly Zhu looked at Qin Huairu: "Qin Huairu, are you looking for me?"

Qin Huairu looked at Silly Zhu with a small look of resentment. He used to call her Sister Qin, but now that the new person is better than the old one, she calls her Qin Huairu. Men really like the new and hate the old.

"Zhuzi, I'm looking for you because tomorrow..."

Silly Zhu: "Don't worry, I'll have a rest tomorrow. Just prepare your things and I'll go to your house to take care of them."

Qin Huairu wanted to say something to Sha Zhu, but Sha Zhu dismissed her with a few words, took Li Kangzhan and went home.

These two simple sentences made Sha Zhu frightened. It can only be said that Qin Huairu's skill is not too deep. If Qin Huairu is a few years later, Sha Zhu will not be able to deal with it.

Back home, Li Kangzhan looked at He Yuyu and Li Kangmei. The two women were sitting there, each holding a bowl, drinking sweet malted milk.

"Don't drink any more after you've finished drinking!"

Li Kangzhan warned: "Drink whatever you want after eating, otherwise you won't be able to eat dinner."

Li Kangmei: "Brother, can I do my homework tomorrow?"

"I want to play with Yan Jiedai, Jinbao and the others."

Li Kangzhan nodded: "Okay, let's go play."

"Oh, brother is the best."

Li Kangzhan turned to the middle courtyard to see what he would have for dinner.

Silly Zhu was cutting shredded cabbage: "Master, sit down while I mix some cabbage to go with the wine."

Qi Zhaodi took a few salted duck eggs, cut them in half with a kitchen knife and handed them to Shazhu: "You go have a drink with Master, I'm frying some salt-baked peanuts for you."

Qi Zhaodi, who knew how to live well, still felt it was a waste for Silly Zhu to fry peanuts.
