Chapter 1334 The Little Widow in the Siheyuan 68

When Zhang Yu woke up in the middle of the night, he rubbed his protesting belly, he was really hungry.

Zhang Yu, who was too hungry to fall asleep, looked at the moonlight outside the window and sighed softly. This has been 61 years and it is also the most difficult time.

Last year’s grain harvest was not good, and at least everyone still had some inventory. Although it was a bit difficult, everyone persevered.

Everyone is looking forward to the new year when the situation will get better, but to everyone’s expectation, in the new year, the situation in various places is not very good, especially in grain-producing areas. All suffered disaster.

Even though the summer harvest is coming soon, judging from the situation in the newspapers, the situation is not very good.

In this case, how can everyone not panic? What is even worse is that even the fixed monthly food supply has begun to decrease.

Originally, the previous supply was no longer enough, but everyone would go to the pigeon market to replenish it. With the intake of oil and water, it could barely survive.

It’s okay now. The pigeon market is basically closed. The farmers themselves don’t have food. How can they get it to sell in urban areas?

As for pork and eggs, there is a supply, but the quantity is also reduced.

Forget about reducing the quantity, the worst thing is that with these bills in hand, there is no supply.

Some people will say that if the supply is gone, it’s okay. If you can, you can go fishing or go for a walk in the mountains.

The idea is good, but unfortunately the number of fish in the river is also declining sharply. Everyone is looking forward to fishing to improve their food.

Everyone who caught small fish before would throw it in to let the small fish grow up and reproduce.

Nowadays, any fish, no matter how big or small, is caught. After all, it is still a mouthful of meat, even if it is a fish soup.

Zhang Yu, a recognized fishing master, has actually not caught any fish for a long time.

Thanks to her putting some small fish in the space before, now she occasionally takes them out to improve the food.

In addition, I can occasionally eat dried fish to prevent my eyesight from being hungry.

Although there is not much food in Zhang Yu's space, it is enough for the three of them plus Uncle Wang to have three meals a day and be 80% full to survive the famine years.

It’s just that Zhang Yu didn’t dare to do this. Now everyone’s faces are yellow and starving. If it’s the same as before, not just fat and white, but people feel that their blood is very good, People around her would definitely be guessing about how she could keep her family fed.

Although this is not an age where people cannibalize people, in this age of lack of food, everything is very possible.

Xue Fan was lying on the bed, tossing and turning, and Wang Xia felt the man next to her tossing and turning, "Aren't you wasting your energy by tossing and turning if you don't sleep?"

"I can't sleep." For some reason, Xue Fan has been feeling all kinds of upset lately, feeling like he's missing something.

But no matter what he thought, he just couldn't think of missing anything.

"What's wrong? Do you also feel that there are no leftovers in the cafeteria now?" Wang Xia rubbed her belly.

"They say there are no hungry cooks in lean years, but it turns out." When the supply dwindled, Wang Xia didn't take it seriously. She felt that no matter what happened, there would definitely be no hungry cooks, especially since they were cooks in a machinery factory.

Last year, Wang Xia knew that the price of grain was soaring, so she went to the black market and sold all the grain she had. At that time, she was quite happy, buying grain at low prices and selling it at high prices.

I can earn more than 20 yuan a month, which is half a person’s salary. I feel happy just thinking about it.

Unfortunately, such days have changed this year. The supply of the machinery factory is also decreasing. Not to mention there are leftovers, the supply of their logistics personnel is also decreasing. If we eat at work, even if the supply of each meal is reduced, we can at least save some food at home.

Now we can only have lunch at work, which is strictly controlled.

"You said, our family's food supply makes us feel hungry. How can Zhang Yu and his family persevere?" Xue Fan originally thought that this year, Zhang Yu might not be able to persevere.

Who would have thought that Zhang Yu, mother and son, although they look thin, are still in good spirits.

“You want to say that she went to the black market?” Wang Xia was excited. Not many people went to the black market in the past, and the prices there were really expensive.

But now the food supply is in short supply, and there are more and more people going to the black market. Unfortunately, even if the price is high, the food supply is still very small.

"Does she have money?" Wang Xia was very confused. "She didn't use Zhao Jun's compensation money to renovate the house."

"Her income is more than thirty per month, plus her two children each How much do you think you can save with a monthly subsidy of ten yuan?" Xue Fan has actually been studying Zhang Yu and considering her monthly income and expenditure.

“Also, she went fishing last year, but she often exchanged things with others, and she didn’t know how much money she could save.”

“Also, I’m wondering if she dug up treasures. "Xue Fan has been worrying about this issue since the house next door was renovated.

"Probably not. There are so many people on the construction site. If the treasure is really dug out, there will be no movement at all." Wang Xia said with certainty.

Wang Xia has always wanted to know one thing, "Are you really sure that there is a treasure in Zhang Yu's house?"

As children grow up, a room really needs to be as crowded as possible. , if Xue Fan hadn't said that there were gold and silver jewelry next door, she would have really wanted to have a good quarrel, because she obviously had a bigger house.

In the end, Xue Fan insisted on having this house because he heard someone say there were jewelry here. They could have gotten a better house.

It’s not that the house is bigger, but there is a small area next to the house where a small room can be built, so that the living space can be at least a little more comfortable.

As for the expansion of this house, don’t even think about it. It is absolutely impossible. I will report you immediately. Wang Xia will get angry just thinking about it.

Xue Fan didn't want to talk to Wang Xia. If his family hadn't been in trouble at that time, how could he marry her as his wife.

In fact, he didn't listen to what others said at all. How could he believe the content of hearsay.

His grandfather, his own grandfather, buried these things himself. Yes, his grandfather was the housekeeper of this courtyard at that time, and he buried them according to the old man's instructions.

The reason why I buried it in the first place was that there were too many gangsters and bad guys, so the old man came up with this idea.

As for whether there are any jewels buried like this in other places in this house, grandpa said there are, but only the owner of the house knows where they are buried.

Grandpa said that the original owner's family was very rich, but he kept a low profile. As the housekeeper, he only knew part of it.

Just a small part of it was already a huge wealth. Before the army entered the city, the homeowner hurriedly left the capital and went south to the port city with a large amount of belongings.

As for grandpa, the housekeeper, the landlord used the excuse that there were many people and did not bring the old man with him, including the promised severance pay. In the end, he just turned away and even injured grandpa.

When grandpa recovered from his injuries, he planned to come over to dig for jewelry. He found that the house was already occupied and that it was for sale. However, grandpa was so angry that he vomited blood and died not long after arriving home.
