Chapter 274 Everything has evolved
The originally promising golden autumn in October once again ushered in bad news. Although many people had already cared about it before, when the news of the poor harvest came out, it still caused an uproar.
The harvest has been bad for two consecutive years. Coupled with some special events at this time, people's lives have become increasingly difficult. The word "hungry" is not just a word. This feeling of real hunger is unforgettable and unforgettable.
Those in future generations who try to lose weight and abuse themselves cannot understand this.
Li Jianhua is becoming more and more low-key. He doesn't dare to cook delicious food in the courtyard now. Let alone cooking meat at this time, the smell of steamed buns can spread ten miles away. I don't know why people in this period seem to have evolved.
Generally speaking, the noses are very sharp.
"Lily, I made two pieces of tofu and will send one to Mom later." Li Jianhua opened the lunch box and said, revealing two pieces of white and tender tofu.
He got this from the tofu shop in exchange for soybeans. Don't even think about buying it. The shortage of tofu tickets is second only to the meat tickets, and even more popular than the meat tickets, because people can still see the tofu, but don't even think about the meat.
.
Tofu tickets are not easy to get. Even Li Jianhua’s aunt who works in a supply and marketing cooperative can’t get a few tickets a month. Of course, if you exchange them for soybeans, there won’t be so many restrictions.
"Tofu! This is good! Let's make potatoes stewed with tofu today." Yu Li's eyes lit up when she saw the tofu. Her husband is a capable man who can always bring back the scarce items. The key is that he also takes good care of her mother's family. What's the matter?
I always think of giving away good things.
"No need to do it. I'll save the tofu for you to eat tomorrow. I brought vegetables and rice today. Let's just heat it up." Li Jianhua waved his hand and said.
It was said before that Taoli was pregnant, and Li Jianhua had to ensure her nutrition. Since the smell of cooking was too strong, he cooked it in the space and put it in the lunch box. The smell of hot rice would be much less with the lid on.
If it's troublesome, just be troublesome. It's better than having a good meal and causing everyone in the courtyard to watch. The key is those gossips. Li Jianhua doesn't want to hear what people say.
"You've got something delicious again. Let's take a look! Tofu, vermicelli, cabbage, and there's meat in it!" Yu Li said in surprise when she opened the lid of the lunch box.
People in this era are not so pretentious. Yu Li, who is pregnant, is still working. Will she take a break before giving birth? She and Li Jianhua eat lunch at the workplace.
Needless to say, the food is usually corn flour steamed buns, and occasionally gray flour steamed buns. As for vegetables, it is usually boiled cabbage. This is considered a good condition.
In view of this kind of food, Li Jianhua would improve her every now and then and would find an excuse to bring some vegetables back in the evening to supplement her nutrition.
"Shhh, keep it down, don't let anyone hear it. There is also a box of rice, let's eat it while it's hot." Li Jianhua made a shushing gesture and whispered.
Eating a meal is like being a thief. When will this day end?
"Eat quickly, don't be reluctant. You need to supplement your nutrition now, and our family is not short of this." Li Jianhua set aside some more dishes for Yu Li and said.
When the food was hot, Yu Li wanted to save some for Li Jianhua to eat tomorrow. A large box of vegetables and a large lunch box were divided into two by Li Jianhua. He also gave some more to Yu Li, indicating that she would finish the meal.
Don't talk about not being able to eat. People are short of food and water. Let alone Yu Li, even a child can be fed by you.
"Be obedient, this is the dish I brought back. It's not good for people to see it. Let's eat it quickly. After eating, open the window to let the smell out." Li Jianhua saw that Yu Li was about to say something and interrupted him.
When Yu Li heard this, she hurriedly ate. As the director of the canteen, Li Jianhua could naturally get some benefits, but these benefits were not on the table. Yu Li was not disgusted with this. It seemed that no one at this time would be disgusted with this.
.
It's someone's ability to get benefits. It's too late for Yu Li to be proud of having such a husband. How can there be any resentment? This is the generation gap, one thought in each era.
After Yu Li finished eating, she poured some boiling water into the lunch box. She rinsed the lunch box with chopsticks and drank the boiling water before she was satisfied. There was an oily smell inside. There were several families who could eat meat at this time, that is, her husband
If you have this ability, don’t let it go to waste.
Li Jianhua was a little helpless. Considering their family's conditions, Yu Li still behaved like this, but other families didn't know what it was like.
"Jianhua, then I'll pack it up!" When Yu Li said this, she couldn't help but look at Li Jianhua's lunch box. There were still several grains of rice in it, and there was still the smell of oil from vegetables in the lunch box. This was not what her husband had pampered since childhood.
What a waste!
"Well! Clean it up. I'll open the window a little to slowly disperse the smell." Li Jianhua didn't pay attention to this and got up and opened a little window. The people living in this courtyard are troublesome. There are too many people staring at what they are eating.
.
But now it’s like this everywhere. Even if you’re a solitary person, you’ll be able to smell it even if you’re eating something good and you’ll be able to smell it from the surrounding restaurants. People are really hungry.
Yu Li responded and came to the kitchen with her lunch box. She first poured some boiling water into Li Jianhua's lunch box, drank the few grains of rice and the oily smell, and then started washing with satisfaction. Food and oily smell are not allowed.
wasted.
"Lily, the last time I saw mom, there was no white noodles. Let's go over and get some white noodles later!" Li Jianhua said after opening the window.
He went to his father-in-law's house for dinner two days ago. He finished the dumplings and white noodles that his mother-in-law made for him. How could Li Jianhua feel so complacent? He thought for a while and went to deliver tofu and get some white noodles by the way.
"Ah? We still need white noodles! We don't have much in our family." Yu Li muttered. Yu's mother had taught her a long time ago that after getting married, she and Li Jianhua would become one family, and the Li family would be the main one.
You can't always think about giving things to your parents' family.
The Yu family cannot always take advantage of others just because their son-in-law is generous. How will their daughter live her life as time goes by?
"We still have some. Let's bring some to Dad and the others. Then Mom will make dumplings for us to eat. I'll make some fat meat when I have a break tomorrow to give Mom and the others some oil. Let's eat fried dumplings."
Li Jianhua said with a smile.
Didn't he make a dark basement before? There was a lot of food stored in it, and he didn't worry about having food at home. Otherwise, Yu Li's character would have saved food and use.
Nowadays, there are more and more types of food substitutes. Many of these are black technologies. People have to eat them even if they have no other choice. As for the food substitutes they buy each time, it depends on luck.
As I said last time, the best thing is corn noodles, which are whole corns ground directly. In fact, this stuff is still edible after sifting it, but Li Jianhua will not eat this stuff, and if Yu Li hadn't insisted, he wouldn't have bought it.
"No need! Jianhua, if you want to eat dumplings, we can make them ourselves." Yu Li hesitated and said. Of course she wanted to help her family, but she was afraid that Li Jianhua would blame her. She meant that their family relied on oil.
That’s fine, there’s no need to share the oil with her parents.
"Your buns are not as delicious as mom's buns. Okay, just listen to me. We don't need this as long as I'm here." Li Jianhua hugged the hesitant Yu Li and said.
"Jianhua, you're so kind!" Yu Li leaned into her husband's arms. She didn't know that her husband was helping her family. Of course, this premise was that she knew that there was a lot of food in the family and that her husband was also capable.
