Chapter 1051: Antecedents and Consequences 1
The two of them have been busy from the morning to the present, first from Lu's house to Caohu, then from Caohu to the commune, and now they are changing to Shanjia on the way from the commune to their home, which is simply non-stop.
Lu Jiang just returned it, and walked very easily, but he was worried that his wife was tired, so he helped her to rest in the mountain pass.
"Rest your feet, drink saliva, anyway, the blind man has passed away, it doesn't matter if we take one step earlier or one step later."
"Yes." Feng Qingxue thought about it, sat on the stone where Lu Jiang had covered his sweatshirt, and took out a small folding table and some food from the space, "While no one is here, let's have a good meal, let's open a watermelon first." ”
A large, round, green-skinned watermelon appeared on the folding table, along with a fruit knife.
"Open a small stove!" Lu Jiang said with a smile.
Feng Qingxue nodded as a matter of course, "Yes, because only you know my secret, I don't have to find excuses by all means, and I have to worry about arousing everyone's suspicion after taking things out, after all, there is a shortage of materials at present, and many things do not exist." ”
Lu Jiang picked up the fruit knife, touched the big watermelon, and sighed, "This watermelon is bigger than the one you took out before!" ”
"The big watermelon in the Northwest is very sweet!" Feng Qingxue explained, "I flew to the northwest to buy a lot of fruits such as melons and grapes, raisins, walnuts, red dates and other dried fruits. The specialty products of the origin are generally cheaper, the year I bought the market was not good, the most expensive watermelon was a dollar a kilogram, the melon farmer just kept the capital, the loss does not know how much, the cheap a few cents a kilogram, there are also not sold on the ground to be pulled away by the locals. In addition, a lot of cantaloupe can't be sold, so they can only rot in the ground, and I only charge a few hundred yuan for 200 acres of land, wishing I could spend money to find workers to help them clean up the melons in the field. ”
They have lived together in the army for several years, often carrying their children to eat secretly, Lu Jiang has not seen a big watermelon, but he doesn't know the origin of the watermelon, and he has always thought that the space has stored it himself.
"Rotten in the ground?" Lu Jiang was shocked, "Decades later, have our ordinary people's lives reached this level?" ”
Feng Qingxue sighed, "When the market is not good, it is not only melon farmers who do this, but also fruit farmers, and it is not uncommon for me to dump eggs under the cliff for this reason, so I was rushing to buy things like this at that time, and I could buy a lot of money by saving money." When you live in that era, you will know what extravagance and waste are, which is beyond your imagination. ”
If you haven't lived through the famine years, you won't know the value of food.
Although Feng Qingxue has a space for supplies, which cannot be eaten in decades at the current rate, she usually does not dare to waste a little, is reluctant to throw away leftovers, and does not care about the remarks of later generations of experts that overnight meals cause cancer.
Lu Jiang was speechless when he heard this.
"Don't talk about this, anyway, I can't see this situation at all now, you open the melon, and we are half of us."
Lu Jiang divided the watermelon in half with a knife, looked at the bright red flesh and dark seeds, and couldn't help but repeat the old words, "In this world, ordinary people can't eat watermelons at all, and many citizens who want to eat melons and fruits have to be issued a certificate by the hospital, and they can buy watermelons and the like with the certificate, unless there is a bumper harvest of melons and fruits in any year, and citizens can queue up to buy, there are restrictions on the number." There are occasionally a few melons and fruits planted in the self-reserved land in the countryside, and most of them are vegetable melons. There are so many watermelons stored in your space, which makes me feel like I am sitting on a mountain of gold and silver. ”
