Wait until the end of the year.

Not only are the impacts and changes in prices getting bigger and bigger, but the temperature is also getting lower and lower. The local minimum temperature has even reached around minus 20 degrees, which is as far back as many people can remember.

Low temperature never seen before.

In previous years, it was minus three to five degrees here, and minus twelve or three degrees was a low temperature that was hard to see in more than ten years.

Not to mention minus twenty degrees.

The most important thing is that they don't have the habit of installing floor heating at all, so this winter is really sad for the locals. I don't know how many people have frostbite on their hands and feet, or just turn on the electric blanket and air conditioner, and simply lie down. Keep warm in bed and don't leave the door.

Those who have to go to work and school have no choice but to wear more clothes and put on more baby warmers and the like.

Take Ding Yun’s class as an example. In a class of 43 students, at least 30 students had chilblains, either on their faces, hands, or both.

Some people's hands are as frozen as radishes.

It may have happened in previous years, but it was by no means as serious.

The main reasons are that firstly, after the third year of senior high school, all the students exercise much less, and the blood circulation may be slightly reduced, so they are indeed more prone to frostbite.

The second is to turn on the air conditioner at home and the school class, but there is no air conditioner on the road, and not every parent is free, so they drive to pick up their children every day.

A hot and cold, not only easy to get sick.

Also prone to frostbite.

Because the temperature has not risen, and there is even a tendency to continue to drop. In addition, many parents of students have reported that their children cannot stand the cold on the road, or that they fell while walking to school and broke their bones.

In the end, the County Education Bureau decided after research that all students should go home one month in advance, not for a holiday, but to go home and take online classes, and return to school after the final exam.

Some people are happy about this, some are not, but generally speaking, most people are quite happy. After all, students don’t want to go to school in the cold every day wearing three layers of inner layer and outer layer. Why do teachers think so?

And homeschooling can save a few meetings.

Don't be tossed about by the school leaders above.

Why not do it?

So from December 12th, Ding Yun and her younger brother started home-based online classes. As for her elder sister, her elder sister has already had a winter vacation. , it’s already minus forty degrees below zero, so her sister had her winter vacation as early as November, and her sister’s winter vacation time can be compared to the local summer vacation time, but the corresponding is that the summer vacation time is shorter than here Much less.

In short, it is to adapt measures to local conditions.

The winter and summer vacation time varies from place to place.

There are long and short, early and late.

...

December 14, eleven o'clock, kitchen.

Because the three children are all at home and there is no cafeteria to eat, Ding Ding and Gao Yi can only temporarily give up eating in the company cafeteria for the sake of their children and instead take meal subsidies.

Then I go to the supermarket every day after get off work to buy a la carte and come back.

Cook and eat for the three children.

"Why is it beef brisket again?"

Looking at the potatoes and frozen beef brisket that his daughter-in-law brought back from the supermarket, Ding Ding was very depressed. Frozen beef brisket was originally fishier than fresh beef brisket, so it was not easy to handle. Beef brisket can only be said to be edible, and it has nothing to do with delicious food.

Besides, even if his wife's skills are good.

I'm tired of eating stewed beef brisket with potatoes for half a month.

"Nonsense, what to eat if you don't eat this. Pork is thirty-eight pounds, and frozen beef brisket is twenty-five pounds. It's not as cost-effective as eating pork. I still think supermarket pork is fat!"

Gao Yi rolled his eyes at Ding Ding and said impatiently.

Since the end of October, their prices have continued to rise sharply, but their wages have not increased. There are three children in the family. The original wages will basically be enough, and there is no money to save. His grades have improved, and he may be able to enroll for free in the future, but he can't just count on it.

Still have to save some money, just in case.

Therefore, it is natural to be frugal in terms of food. Although there are cheaper frozen chicken, the family does not like chicken very much. In the end, only frozen beef brisket is the most cost-effective, with a good taste and nutrition.

The intake of fat is also much less than that of pork.

"Well, daughter-in-law, there's no need for us to be so frugal, we have to buy some fruits and vegetables, our family hasn't eaten fruit for half a month, and the child only eats potatoes and beef brisket, which can't supplement essential vitamins!

Vegetables and fruits are more expensive.

The big deal is to buy less! "

Because the monthly wages are all handed in, his little coffers are not enough for anything, so Ding Ding can only continue to persuade Gao Yi in a low voice in the kitchen.

He has developed oral ulcers recently, and he really can't hold it. He didn't think cucumbers and tomatoes were delicious before, but now he hasn't eaten them for a long time, and he really misses them.

"How long has it been since you went to the supermarket?

Do you know how much the prices of those fruits and vegetables have risen now? Just today, cucumbers are nineteen yuan and eighty-one catties, and fruit cucumbers are twenty-eight yuan and eighty-one catties.

Tomatoes are 19 yuan and 81 catties, fruit tomatoes are 29 yuan and 81 catties, millet peppers are 88 yuan and green peppers are 24 yuan and 8 catties, and the potatoes in the bag have increased in price to 5 yuan and 58 cents. , those rare vegetables that are not produced locally, let alone the specific price.

I dare not look at it.

The cheapest bananas in the past were often sold for 1.98 cents, but now they are sold for 9.81 catties in supermarkets, and grapes cost 49.90 yuan.

It's not a high-end variety of grapes, it's just an ordinary grape, and the good varieties of grapes are all in three digits.

How to buy at this price, let's get over it.

Anyway, Chinese New Year is coming soon, no matter how expensive things are at that time, I have to buy something. Yesterday I placed an order online and bought a lot of canned fruits, pickled cucumbers, etc., just eat them as vegetables and fruits, and I also bought a lot of vitamin tablets and so on. .

Take some vitamin tablets to supplement it, and when the prices drop in spring, you can eat whatever you want. "

As someone who manages money and accounts, Gao Yi is quite clear about the extent and extent of price increases during this period. Seeing that the prices of some things have increased by three or five times, she really doesn't want to be taken advantage of. Will die, why bother to pursue freshness in such a cold day.

In the past, the days of potatoes and pickles every day in winter.

Didn't he also survive?

And in recent years, seeing more and more extreme weather, more and more frequent, the lack of savings at home really made her feel a little flustered, and she didn't want to spend money recklessly.

"Did you go shopping in a luxury supermarket?"

Ding Ding, who can't go to the supermarket twice a year, still has the impression of fruits and vegetables in the supermarket a few years ago.

He thought that even if the weather is cold now and the price of vegetables rises, cucumbers and the like will only rise to six or seven yuan at most, and how much higher it can go, so after hearing his wife's quotation at this time, he can't help feeling a little suspicious in his heart.

"Do you think I'm stupid?

I still can't tell which supermarket I bought it from. You can't see the words on this bag. It's a discounted and cheap fresh food supermarket. I'm too lazy to tell you. I can't help you with anything. Go out and go out. , If you don’t know the price, you can open the takeaway software to see the prices of the dishes on the takeaway and the things in the supermarket! "

Rolling her eyes impatiently at her husband again, Gao Yi stretched out his hand and pushed him out of the kitchen, and then cooked with anger.

I don't know anything, I just know how to talk.

Is it easy for her to be this family?

There are indeed some relatively cheap fruits and vegetables in the supermarket, but the key point is that those relatively cheap fruits and vegetables are not only of poor quality, but also the family members don’t like to eat them. For example, apples that are not in good condition cost only 8 yuan One catty, last time she bought three catties back.

Nobody eats it at all, and it ends up rotting away.

She couldn't bear it, and she ate it all by herself.

If the food you like is too expensive, you don’t want to buy it, and if you don’t eat the cheap food, you might as well not buy it!

Can this be her fault?

The more Gao Yi thought about it, the more angry he became, he didn't cut up the frozen beef brisket on the cutting board, but directly chopped it with a machete.

Ding Ding, on the other hand, turned on his mobile phone obediently, downloaded a takeaway software, carefully looked at the takeaway prices on it, and then he found that the prices of all the items on the takeaway are indeed ridiculously high.

A tomato and egg rice bowl sells forty-eight.

Can you imagine that there is no discount for a penny?

It turned out that the grandmother's braised pork that he thought sold for forty-eight yuan a piece has now risen to ninety-nine.

The note also specifically stated that it is a small portion.

The husband and wife have a total salary of 180,000. Even if they don't have to repay the mortgage, judging from the price, they must be frugal, otherwise I'm afraid they won't be able to survive.

In the past, their family's daily food and drink expenses for a month were only about 6,000 yuan. Now if they want to reach the previous level and eat more fruits and vegetables.

That would have to be tripled at least three hundred and sixty-eight thousand.

This is obviously impossible.

After all, other places also spend a lot of money, such as water, electricity, communication fees, gas fees, children's school fees, pocket money for living, etc., so don't be frugal about food and drink.

I'm afraid this day is really impossible.

Knowing this, Ding Ding also knows that his daughter-in-law's home is not a good one these days. No wonder colleagues are complaining about the company's food getting worse and worse recently.

With this price, is the company food not bad?

Whether it can last until the end of the year is still a question. According to his estimation, if the price of goods does not come down in the spring, the company canteen will definitely be closed and it will be replaced with a meal allowance.
