Isn't it just not being able to drink for more than a year? It's not like Chen Xueru has not experienced it before. She has experienced it twice.
In order not to be compared with Xu Huizhen, it is not unbearable to go through it one more time.
"Fan Jinyou, you can't just care about me. The elderly in the family must also show their respect."
In 1960, the second year of the difficult period, urban residents also reduced their food rations.
Moreover, only 30% of the rationed food is rice, white flour and other fine grains.
Food has become tight. Even if you go to the black market, it is not easy to buy and the price is high.
Fan Jin has parents, so there is nothing wrong with eating some whole grains. He has always lived like this, he is used to it, and it is in line with his eating habits.
But Chen Xueru's mother cannot give the old man a monthly allowance of whole grains.
The old lady is old, born in a wealthy family, and married into a wealthy family. Her diet is not easy to change. Although she doesn't eat much, the small amount of refined grains she rations is definitely not enough.
"Okay, you eat first, I'll try to get some white flour and rice, and send the millet to the old man."
Fan Jin has a small world, and the products he can produce are not purchased from outside.
Food was not plentiful outside, so Fan Jin had to collect goods from outside, so there was no point in hoarding them.
They are all self-sufficient in the small world. In addition to chickens, ducks, geese, and fish, Fan Jinyou also raised a few sheep this time.
If feeding pigs didn't consume too much food, and it was too luxurious in this special era, Fan Jinyou could even raise pigs.
Fan Jinyou has a small world, and it's okay for his family to live a good life.
But human beings are social animals after all, and there is no way to close the door to the whole family and only care about themselves.
The parents on both sides, these are three old people. They are old and only eat steamed buns. They are definitely not good at drying sweet potatoes. They need to strengthen their nutrition.
My sister's family of five doesn't have enough to eat in normal times. In a disaster year, Fan Jin has the ability, so of course he can't ignore it.
On the brother-in-law's side, Fan Jinyou also needs to help prepare something every once in a while.
Although Chen Xueru didn't like his brother-in-law, his brother-in-law liked to lie down and didn't have much objection to Chen Xueru who was willing to take over the business.
Therefore, the brother-in-law and Fan Jin have a good relationship. It is rare for Fan Jin to meet someone who is so good at playing, so the two of them naturally come into contact with each other more often.
When things were good, my brother-in-law often took me out to eat, drink and have fun, and we ate a lot of good food with him.
There are many dishes that are not included in the eight major cuisines, and Fan Jinyou does not know them. He has also gained a lot of experience. Fan Jinyou, the successor of the imperial chef, has seen double figures.
So now it’s time to repay, so I don’t care about food. After all, if you have money and know many people, you can always find a way to get some. Eating some whole grains at a young age is good for your health. Fan Jin has brought some meat and eggs.
That's it.
Finally, Fan Jinyou is another person with a mixed constitution, although he has no great ambitions.
But in the unit, you should at least have a good relationship with your direct leaders.
Section chief Yao, director Lao Li, and Fan Jinyou also need to move around carrying fruits, meat, eggs, and grain.
Although after several encounters, Lao Yao and Lao Li did not receive Fan Jinyou's gifts in vain, but all in exchange for money.
But Fan Jinyou has definitely earned his favor. Last year, Fan Jinyou was given a salary increase.
Although it is only a few yuan a month, the family does not care about Chen Xueru, a rich woman, and the money is not comparable to what the couple donated.
According to his seniority and rank, Fan Jinyou donated five yuan every month after his salary was paid, and as he advanced in rank, he donated eight yuan.
You can't do that if you are too much. In the workplace, people are so sophisticated that a junior section member can donate more than the section chief. I don't even think about it.
Chen Xueru had no scruples. For more than a year, she donated all her monthly salary.
Chen Xueru came up with it all by herself. Chen Xueru's awareness and kindness are worthy of recognition.
But the level does not necessarily mean that the salary of a few dollars. After increasing the level, if there is a position, Fan Jinyou will have no problem becoming a stock manager.
Of course, Chen Xueru couldn't finish the pot of chicken soup. Hou Kui and Zhijun were all called over by Fan Jinyou.
Although from a psychological perspective, Fan Jinyou cannot treat his two children equally.
But materially speaking, Fan Jinyou made no difference between the two children.
Zhijun never had less than Hou Kui. If there was only one share, Fan Jinyou would give it directly to Hou Kui.
Chen Xueru asked Hou Kui to learn piano and various musical instruments, and Fan Jinyou also expressed his support.
Anyway, if these things are useful, they are useful for picking up girls and so on. If they are useless, they are useless. Just don’t force your son to learn them.
A pot of chicken soup, even the nanny Xiaoya can drink a bowl of it.
Erya was already married. Before leaving home, Fan Jin had a trustee to find Erya a temporary job in a food factory.
It would be great to help here. Jobs in food factories are really in demand at this time and are more attractive than some formal workers' jobs.
The more difficult the period, the more important this job became. Fan Jinyou also used his foresight to create a time lag and arranged for Erya to come in without consuming much favors.
It is naturally inconvenient for Erya to get married, so Erya still lives at home and works as a nanny.
Xiaoya is Erya's younger sister. Before Erya left, he recommended Xiaoya over and took her with him for a while.
Xiaoya is as diligent as Erya, quick at work, kind and simple.
With the same reassurance, he pointed at Xiaoya and helped him take good care of the child. Of course, Fan Jinyou tried his best to be nice to Xiaoya.
"Fan Jinyou, have you heard how Xu Huizhen is doing? I heard that Xu Huizhen eats steamed buns every day at home and there is not enough food."
"No, it's definitely not that we don't have enough food to eat. At most, we just barely have enough to eat."
Fan Jinyou not only understood it, but also understood it much better than Chen Xueru.
Xu Huizhen's family difficulties must be more difficult, and the reasons are easy to find.
Cai Quanwu has been secretly supporting He Yongqiang's family. Originally, with Cai Quanwu's ability and flexibility in doing things, the Xu family also supported He Yongqiang's two daughters, so their life would not be so bad.
However, Cai Quanwu used all the money and ability he had to subsidize his ex-husband's brother He Yongqiang's family, and his family would definitely have a difficult time.
Of course, Cai Quan did not think he was doing it secretly, but he could only use it to tease himself.
Although Xu Huizhen did not confiscate Cai Quanwu's salary, Cai Quanwu didn't even have any hobbies. At most, he spent money to drink some wine, and it was all under Xu Huizhen's nose.
For a few cents, Xu Huizhen was well-connected, and Cai Quanwu became a moonlight tribe for no reason. How could Xu Huizhen not figure out what Cai Quanwu was doing.
