I Wore It Back After 60 Years

Chapter 47 The Envy of Watches
The next day, Li Xingxing slept as usual until three poles in the sun.

Although she was extremely lazy, no one was gossiping, and Mrs. Li even gave her a bowl of cabbage noodles for breakfast.

It was the vermicelli they brought back, with a scent of eggs.

Li Xingxing was wearing cotton shoes, and when he went out to brush his teeth, he saw a skating edge hanging under the eaves.

It hangs down long, thick on the top and sharp on the bottom, crystal clear.

The ice ridges that the sun hits are melting and ticking, and the ones that don't hit are very firm.

Old man Li took a bamboo pole and knocked down the ice ridges, looked back at his granddaughter, and said, "Xingxing, later, your mother and I will give your uncle a bicycle, and your grandma has packed up the things that are distributed to each family. You send it over in person. There is a saying that you can eat people’s mouths and take short-handedness, so let them remember your benefits.”

Li Xingxing snorted: "Mom just go, I'm afraid of the cold and don't want to go out."

The main reason is that there are too many people in the nine uncle's family, and they can't recognize them fully. It's too embarrassing to know what to call when they meet.

Nine uncles, nine aunts, more than 30 cousins ​​who are workers in cities and towns, [-] cousins, and [-] to [-] cousins ​​and nieces.

The Li family's branches are luxuriant, and it's terrifying to think about!
Although there are only nine uncles, nine aunts, ten cousins ​​and fourteen nephews living in Dalizi Village, a total of 42 people, but it is enough to make Li Xingxing's scalp tingle.

After all, I've never seen it before.

Fortunately, they have a tradition of separating their families, and they basically don't live together. Otherwise, cooking alone would be a hassle.

Old Man Li smiled and said, "You have to go out for a walk, don't get bored."

"Good!"

Mrs. Li, regardless of her grandchildren's affairs, has always been fair to her sons. Each family has four sausages, two catties of pork, and two frozen duck legs. Old man: "Send it to your brother."

Li Xiuhong and Li Xingxing gave Li Dazhu bicycles and meat.

"Meat! It turned out to be meat!" Auntie really wanted to kiss!
There was only one young daughter-in-law in Li Dazhu's family who missed the opportunity to enter the city. It was not an urban hukou. Li Xingxing called her sister-in-law Fang and brought her three children, five, three and two years old, to live with her in-laws.

Meat!Meat!

Almost fainted with excitement.

They have been ignorant of the taste of meat for almost three months.

The big family has long been separated, and the most difficult life is their family. A person works in the mine as a worker, with a monthly salary of 36 yuan and a ration supply of 45 catties, but they have to support a family of five, and they have to plan every month. .

The three children are young and can't do shit.

Sister-in-law Fang is not very strong, and her age is not good.

Otherwise, you can't get through at all.

Fortunately, Li Dazhu's other three sons and daughters-in-law all have urban hukou and work, and even their children have urban hukou. They don't have to worry about food rations at home.

There is a shortage of food in both urban and rural areas, and life in the countryside is even more difficult. Li Dazhu's subsidies must be limited.

Sister-in-law Fang held Li Xingxing's hand to express her gratitude, but she suddenly found the watch on her wrist and couldn't help exclaiming: "Watch! Xingxing, have you bought a watch? It looks so beautiful!"

Immediately aroused the onlookers of their whole family, their eyes full of envy.

Li Dazhu is no exception.

There are very few people in the village who own a watch.

Then, in the houses of the following eight uncles, Li Xingxing received the envy of the same style, which made her almost bewildered.

It's not a big diamond ring, is it that rare?
