    ?

    Thanks for the reward from fickle and orange!

    Today is five more!  !  !

    This time it was three hundred and seventy catties, and the leader also gave me a note, thirty-five yuan and fifteen cents.

    Today, it sold for more than 70 yuan a day, and Wang Hongxi smiled so happily that she couldn't see her eyes.

    Wang Hongxi bargained with the leader for a while, and settled on a price of eighty-five cents for dried mushrooms.

    Wang Hongxi rode away on his bicycle, Zhang Hongmei and Liu Jianguo strolled back.

    "Hongmei, I feel too tired after just one trip."

    "Yes, but the village still owes too much money to Tai Nai. If there is no way out, I will endure it. Now that I can sell vegetables for money, everyone is of course very motivated."

    "Yeah, it's the hardest thing for a farmer. Go, I'll take you home. I don't know where your home is yet."

    "It's just right, I'll eat at home at noon, and there will be white noodles, and I'll make pancakes for you."

    "That's great, I haven't eaten refined grains for more than half a year."

    Zhang Hongmei led Liu Jianguo to find the way. When he arrived at home, Liu Jianguo took out the lunch box and handed it to Zhang Hongmei.

    "Hongmei, my dad said that you will go to school well tomorrow, and you don't need to cook for them. They will bring their own meals."

    "Understood, brother Jianguo, do you want pancakes, or pancakes with eggs and leeks?"

    "Let's bake the box, I'll choose leeks."

    Zhang Hongmei washed his hands and made noodles. As for the leeks, it was Liu Jianguo's business.

    Make good noodles, light the fire, and cook a pot of mung bean porridge first to clear away heat and relieve summer heat.

    Another four eggs were scrambled, and the broken pieces were stirred in the pot with chopsticks, and then put them in a basin to cool.

    Liu Jianguo's leeks were also selected and washed.

    Zhang Hongmei made a total of 20 palm-sized ironing boxes, and ate two for herself, while Liu Jianguo ate six and drank a bowl of mung bean porridge.

    "Hongmei, I'll go back to sleep first, and I have to work the night shift at night."

    "Okay, I will keep two ironing boxes. You take the rest."

    "No, I'll just take six yuan with me. There's no place to put it, and it will go bad and be ruined later."

    Liu Jianguo was sent away, and he spent the whole afternoon reading. The college entrance examination is less than four months away. Although he feels that he is sure to be admitted to Capital University, he still wants to see how far he can perform at his best.

    Just like that, another week passed. On Saturday morning, I still steamed steamed buns, scrambled eggs with cucumber slices, and went to the supply station to wait for people from the village.

    Seeing everyone smiling on the road, what is so happy about it?

    "Auntie, did something good happen?"

    "you do not know?"

    If I know, come to ask?

    "Let me tell you, every household in our city needs to be connected to electricity. The streets are all posted up, and everyone is not charged a penny, and the state pays. It is better for our government to do practical things for the people."

    "It's really great. This is a great thing that benefits the country and the people. In the future, ordinary people will be able to use electric lights, firmly support the party's leadership, and follow the party's footsteps."

    "Yes, without the party, we would not have a good life."

    Zhang Hongmei and the old aunt felt lighter when they separated. In the previous life, I was not sure when the electricity was connected. Electric lights were not popularized until around 1980 in my hometown, but it is a rural area. I don¡¯t know when Liujiatun will be connected to electricity.

    After that, the electrical appliances can be used.  Thinking about the electrical appliances in the space, I denied it again. If I want to use electrical appliances, I have to buy them, or I am not too advanced.

    Arriving at the supply station, Wang Hongxi had already finished unloading the truck and weighed the dishes.

    "Village uncle, you are really early."

    "Hehe, if you deliver it early, they can sell it earlier. Hongmei, this is the mushroom brought to you by your third wife and my aunt."

    "Great, I'm just about to eat. Uncle, you eat first. Do you still need to pick it up?"

    "I just said that I don't need to bring food today, hehe. Yes, this time it was sent to the cotton spinning factory. This week, your brother Jianguo will pick it up. Today he is on shift and in the daytime, so I have to pick it up myself. Now  I'm not convinced anymore."

    ?Wang Hongxi took the lunch box, and the big steamed buns with double noodles looked empty, but there were eggs?

    "Hongmei, save the eggs for yourself to eat in the future, make more supplements, you haven't grown up this year."

    "It's okay, you have worked too hard, you should eat more."

    Wang Hongxi was moved in her heart, she was still a daughter-in-law, but her own daughter didn't understand at all, so she wanted to let herself buy things for her.  Really spoiled.

      After eating, he took the lunch box for Liu Maocai and watched Wang Hongxi ride away on his bicycle.

    Zhang Hongmei walked around the supply station, bought two catties of brown sugar, divided into two bags, and asked Wang Hongxi to take it back for Li Cuihua and himself after a while, because he couldn't eat other people's mushrooms for nothing.

    Afterwards, I strolled to the cotton spinning factory, and the janitor greeted her with a smile. She has improved her life for her factory, of course I have to thank her.

    After waiting for more than an hour, Wang Hongxi came over, said that after collecting the money, and went home with the brown sugar stuffed by Zhang Hongmei.

    Zhang Hongmei went to the post office to pick up newspapers, and Huang Ying told her an insider message, "Hongmei, do you have any young relatives in your family? The power supply company in the city will be recruiting workers on Monday."

    "What are your requirements?"

    "An eighteen-year-old boy who is strong and literate can sign up. My wife's uncle is in charge of recruiting workers there and can help."

    "Thank you so much, Sister Huang Ying. If the brothers in our village find a job, I must thank you very much. I'm leaving first, and I want to go back and tell them the good news."

    Zhang Hongmei rushed to the station after leaving the post office.  Go back today and tell them that this is an opportunity.

    It was after three o'clock in the afternoon when I got off the bus in the countryside, and walked for another hour before arriving at the village.

    Did not go home, went directly to the old lady's house.

    "Too grandma, there is a good thing."

    "Why are you home at this time? What good things make you so happy?"

    "The power supply bureau in the city will be recruiting workers on Monday. All young men over 18 years old, literate, and in good health can sign up. The uncle of Huang Ying's wife at the post office is in charge of recruiting workers. We can go through the back door."

    "It's a good thing, Aimin, go and call Wang Hongxi and Maocai over."

    "Okay, grandma, I'll go right away."

    "You haven't eaten yet, have you? Let your aunt make you a bowl of noodle soup."

    "Put some cabbage in."

    "I'll lay another egg for you."

    Liu Jingze's mother felt relieved to see the old and the young talking and laughing. The old lady hadn't been this happy for a long time because of the third uncle's affairs, but this girl was a pain in the ass and would make the elderly happy.

    "Middle, I'll cook it right away, you two just wait and eat."

    Liu Maocai arrived first, and was taken aback when he saw Zhang Hongmei, "Hongmei. Why are you back?"

    "Third Master, the city's power supply bureau is recruiting, and I'll let you know when I come back."

    "Recruitment in the city? Really?" Wang Hongxi asked Zhang Hongmei happily.

    "Huang Ying from the post office told me that the recruiting started on Monday, but you must be literate and in good health." (Remember the website website: www.hlnovel.com
