Jiang Yingqiu was born a poor farmer. Although her brother was the leader of the brigade, their family was still poor.
Mo Beihan was always away from home and there was no man in the family. Jiang Yingqiu was not in good health and had to raise two half-grown children. The whole family relied on Mo Beihan alone and the burden was heavy.
In Zhang Xiaohui and Gu Ruoqing's eyes, the good families were those in the city who ate commodity food.
In this era, people yearned for a household register in the city. People in the city did not need to do farm work and it was more convenient to find a job. Also, there was a monthly supply of food and coupons. It was not like the villages where it was difficult for farmers to get anything other than food.
Because there were no coupons!
On one hand, Zhang Xiaohui and Gu Ruoqing were proud of being poor farmers. On the other hand, they especially wanted to live the life of a rich young lady. It was as if in their hearts, they should live the life of a rich family.
As for why they thought this way, Gu Qingyao's beautiful eyes flashed with hostility. She did not say much and took the things back to her room.
In this era, housing was scarce and many families squeezed the children together. But in the Gu family, no matter how difficult it was, Gu Yunshen still separated her and Gu Ruoqing so that they each had their own room.
Although it was very small, Gu Qingyao liked it very much.
Gu Qingyao made brown rice for lunch. She made very little and each person had a small bowl. Anyway, from now on, she would not give Zhang Xiaohui and Gu Ruoqing the chance to eat and drink well.
She made a soup with mushrooms and wild vegetables and then fried a portion of mushrooms for lunch.
When the dishes were served, Gu Ruoqing's eyes widened. "We're only eating this?"
Gu Qingyao was expressionless. "It's good enough that we have something to eat. How can you be so picky? Hedonism is not allowed. One must be diligent and thrifty, understand? "
Gu Ruoqing: "…"
Zhang Xiaohui: "…"
Hedonism was not allowed in this era. Everyone was afraid of it. Zhang Xiaohui and Gu Ruoqing were the same. After Gu Qingyao said this, Gu Yunshen stared at them dangerously. They did not dare to speak and started eating angrily.
After dinner, Zhang Xiaohui washed the dishes. Gu Yunshen had asked Gu Ruoqing to do it but Zhang Xiaohui could not bear to and did it herself.
After that, the two of them continued to wash clothes and mushrooms.
Gu Qingyao took a broom and a rag to clean the house. When Zhang Xiaohui finally finished washing the clothes, she was very tired. It was noon, and she wanted to take a nap, so she ran back to her room.
Seeing that her mother had gone back to sleep, Gu Ruoqing also ran away.
Gu Qingyao ignored them. After a while, she went to her grandparents' room.
In the house, Grandpa was tidying up while Grandma was resting on the bed. Gu Qingyao smiled. Grandpa really doted on Grandma.
Two bowls appeared in Gu Qingyao's hands. In the bowls were half a bowl of rice and braised pork. "Grandpa, grandma, you didn't eat enough just now, right? Eat this. "
When Gu Chonghua and Wen Ruyu saw that their little granddaughter had brought them food, they immediately stared at the food in her hands with their eyes wide open.
They had already heard about their granddaughter's fortuitous encounter from their son, but they really couldn't believe it. However, the thing that was given to them was real.
Their son didn't explain too much, so they didn't ask too much. Their son had always been reliable, so they naturally trusted him.
Now that he had seen it with his own eyes, it was truly shocking.
The two of them each had a bowl. "Oh my god! This is really white rice and pork! "
Gu Qingyao laughed. "Of course it is. Grandpa, Grandma, don't worry. I have enough here! But be careful. Don't let anyone find out. "
