With a Door In Mind

Chapter 53, Grand Canteen

Jiang Xiaochuan was silent when he heard Li Guangzhi's words.

Penicillin in the past is penicillin in later generations. Penicillin today is not as cheap as later generations.

In 1943, a single penicillin cost $55 to produce. The price has dropped over the years due to process improvements.

But in China, the price is still unacceptable to ordinary people.

I don't know if there is any disease. If there is no disease, it will be fine, but if it is diseased, it will be troublesome.

At this time, Jiang Xiaomei came out of the house. After turning around, he asked the two Jiang Xiaochuan brothers, "Brother... looks good."

Jiang Xiaohe watched her sister come out wearing new clothes, and said quickly, "Sister is so pretty."

Jiang Xiaochuan was then pulled out of her mind. He smiled and said, "It looks good, but it's a bit big."

Jiang Xiaomei said nonchalantly: "It's good to be older, I'm only fifteen years old, and I can still grow taller. It will be just right to wear it. This one can be worn for several years."

Jiang Xiaochuan looked at her height, about 1.5 meters, she should be able to grow taller.

Thinking of this, he was a little worried that he would not grow taller.

The elder sister-in-law of the Li family took her son into the house angrily.

The boss of the Li family also went back.

Jiang Xiaochuan was speechless for a while, although he was a little deliberate, who told you not to see your sister, but this guest hasn't left yet. Is it a little too rude...

Well...you're still a brat.

Jiang Xiaochuan thought that his sister was still a big girl, so he said to her: "Sister, come with me and I have something to tell you alone. Uncle Li, my sister and I can talk alone."

Father Li nodded.

Jiang Xiaomei didn't know what Jiang Xiaochuan meant, so she gestured to her husband. He took him to his house.

When he came to the room, Jiang Xiaochuan didn't know how to speak. After thinking for a while, he summed up the language and said, "Sister, let me ask you a question. You must not be angry."

Jiang Xiaomei listened inexplicably, and said impatiently, "Is there anything you can't say? It's humming."

After hearing this, Jiang Xiaochuan asked: "Sister, you also know that I am rich now. How much dowry did you give when you got married? If you don't want to be here, we are willing to give double the dowry and return the money to them. , let's go home."

When Jiang Xiaomei heard what he said, she grabbed his ear, "You are so bold now, you can take care of everything, how can I go back? Don't you want to get married when you go back? Your reputation is bad, who else can marry? I?"

"Oh... it hurts... it hurts... hurt, sister, let go. You don't really like that kid." Jiang Xiaochuan didn't expect the other party's reaction to be so big, and he was grabbed by the ear before he could react. The key still hurts.

Jiang Xiaochuan knew that what he asked was embarrassing, but he still wanted to know what the other party thought. If you have no idea, leave if you have an idea.

When Jiang Xiaomei heard his words, her face flushed, her hand twisting his ear added more strength, and said, "What that kid, you have to be called brother-in-law."

Seeing Jiang Xiaochuan howling, he released his hand and sighed lightly. "I'm already 15, and I'm going to get married in a year or two. Who is not to marry. Your brother-in-law is also very good to me. It's his body..." She sighed again after saying this.

Seeing this, Jiang Xiaochuan understood that Jiang Xiaomei also had an interest in Li Guangzhi.

Then he comforted: "Sister... It's fine, my brother-in-law's health shouldn't be a big problem. I went to the provincial capital to get some medicinal wine last time, and I will bring it back to you today. It should relieve the symptoms. As for penicillin, I will go to the provincial capital next time. The city will find a way for you."

Jiang Xiaomei shook her head when she heard his words: "If you have medicinal wine, send me some, and penicillin is fine. That medicine is too expensive. We can't afford it."

Seeing what Jiang Xiaochuan wanted to say, Jiang Xiaomei said again: "Don't say you are rich,

You can't buy that thing. Even if you can, how many needles do you have enough money for? "

Seeing this, Jiang Xiaochuan didn't say more, just use it directly after he got it. As for excuses? a whole lot. Can't it be said that my father's comrades in arms helped to do it?

Jiang Xiaohe and his elder sister were tired and crooked for a while because they were all eating in the cafeteria, and there was no way to entertain them at home. He was dragged away by his brother.

Of course, before he left, he secretly stuffed 50 yuan for her emergency use. Don't forget to explain to your sister before leaving, and go to yourself if you have anything.

When the two returned to the village, it was almost noon.

I saw someone laughing and rushing towards the village headquarter.

"I heard that I'm full today with white noodles and steamed buns."

"That's for sure, there's still pork to eat..."

"Yeah... I heard that there is meat to eat these days."

"I haven't eaten white noodles for a long time. I almost forgot the taste, haha... I will never worry about being hungry again."

 …

But there are also old people chatting: "Oh...how can you make it like this..."

"Yeah, I've been working for so long this year, I don't know how next year will be?"

"This group of people has forgotten about 42 years. What if there is another major drought? It's a sin, it's too hard to live."

"Yeah... It's not a good sign... It hasn't rained for so long."

"Hey………"

Jiang Xiaochuan listened to the conversations of these people and sighed that these old people have experienced a lot.

Before natural disasters, there must be omens.

Some old people have felt it.

Riding a bicycle, he took Jiang Xiaohe back to the house. Park the car. Jiang Xiaohe said to him, "Brother... I'm hungry."

When he left in the morning, he had already delivered the iron pot and food at home to the village.

Bicycles are industrial products and do not need to be handed in.

Since we can't cook at home, we can only eat in the cafeteria.

"Go... go to the cafeteria to eat."

He came to experience for himself what the big dining hall was like in this period.

Pulling Jiang Xiaohe with his rice bowl, he rushed towards the village headquarter.

When I came to the village office, I saw that the outside of the village office was crowded with people, old and young, men and women, about a few hundred people.

There are less than 100 households in Jiangtai Village, with a total of more than 300 people. It's all here now.

A middle-aged woman shouted to maintain order. It should be the women's director of the village.

"Get in line, hurry up, don't crowd, there are all, one person will take two steamed buns first, if not enough, then take it again."

"Bingzi, you won't listen if you want to take two less. Looking for a fight, right?"

"Zhuzi, you need less meat. Are you finished? How about just eating meat. You should also eat vegetables,"

The boy who was talking next to him held a bowl full of meat, patted his chest and said, "Aunt Jiang, I can finish it. I won't waste it."

The scene was chaotic.

After a long time, when the others were almost finished, Jiang Xiaochuan brought Jiang Xiaohe to the front.

Looking at the food, he sighed, good guy: stewed potatoes with pork, fried Chinese cabbage, white rice, white steamed buns. Tomato Egg Soup.

Jiang Xiaochuan's heart froze when he saw it.

There are not many kinds, but the amount is large enough. It's kind of scary.

He didn't say anything, just ordered some white rice. I took Jiang Xiaohe to the side to eat.

He even saw someone pick out the lean meat in the meat and throw it away.

Jiang Xiaochuan shook his head. Without speaking, he quietly took Jiang Xiaohe to eat his meal, listening to a group of people chatting.
