The two of them chatted for a while more. In the end, Dong Chong left first, saying that he had something to do.
When he rode home, he saw his mother feeding the poultry in the yard. He quickly asked,"Mom, there's a fashionably dressed Auntie Wang in your dance troupe, right?”
"That Auntie Wang? There are quite a few people with the surname Wang in the dance troupe, and we're all dressed fashionably, okay?”Mom returned
"It's the one who came to our house to look for you before, and her wife often plays chess and drinks tea with Dad!”
"Oh! What happened to your Auntie Wang? You're asking me this?"
" It's nothing. It's just…" Dong Chong told his mother about what happened in the morning. He only changed the way he went back to the supplier to get the goods into a mother and baby store that was secretly operating.
"Besides, Mom, what's the background of this Aunty Wang? She's so arrogant!”
His mother glanced at Dong Chong, making him a little confused!
"Who asked her to have a good son?”
"Your son isn't bad either. Not only does he have a car and a house, but his luck is also heaven-defying.”Dong Chong laughed and boasted.
His mother pretended to sigh." Sigh, you're just this good. You're far from being comparable to other people's sons."”
"What does his son do for a living?" Dong Chong said unwillingly.
"Of course. Otherwise, Old Wang wouldn't have become the leader of our Square Dance Troupe.”
"Then why would their family lack milk powder?" Dong Chong asked curiously."There should be a lot of people fawning over them, right?"”
"What's so strange about that? She just wanted to curry favor with her, but she didn't know that her family would be short of milk powder. There's no electricity, and she can't even get through the phone.”
his mother speculated.
Dong Chong was speechless. He could only admit that the older the wiser!
On the other side, Aunty Wang rushed home with two buckets of milk powder.
"Mom, you're back." The one who spoke was Aunt Wang's daughter-in-law, Li Mei.
Li Mei would occasionally bring her children to stay with her mother-in-law for a period of time. Firstly, it was to let the children get closer to their grandmother and grandfather. Secondly, he could also pay attention to the health of the two old men.
Aunty Wang and her husband only had one son. Their family was a little rich, so after their son got married, they bought a wedding house for them. She and her husband lived in Xiangxie Community.
"Xiao Li, Mom bought the milk powder."
When Li Mei heard this, she quickly ran out of the kitchen and said in surprise,"Mom, where did you buy it?"
"Mom was going to borrow some cash from some friends, but she saw a few old ladies chatting in the guard room, so she went up and asked if anyone had any extra milk powder.”
"They don't have milk powder at home, but I saw the son of the family from the Siheyuan. He's the Aunty Wang I introduced to you before. Do you remember?”
Li Mei remembered when she mentioned the courtyard house.
"His son owns a food trading company, so I went up to ask. Who knew that there really was!"
Li Mei wiped her face and hands. She walked forward and picked up a can of milk powder to take a look. She said in surprise,"Eh, it's still high-end goat milk powder! This brand is not bad."
"Their company is so big and they can afford a courtyard house.”
"I didn't give her the money either. Xiao Dong said that when there's a signal, I'll transfer it to your Aunty Wang.”
"Look at how well his son has handled this matter. Then look at my son. He's busy every day and doesn't even go home. He doesn't even know that his son has no food to eat.”
Li Mei smiled apologetically as she poured the milk powder.""Yes, yes, yes. When he comes back, we'll criticize him.”
Aunty Wang was not an unreasonable person. Sometimes, she felt that her son might as well start a small company when he was a high-ranking official. At least, he would not be as busy as he was now!

In spring, the sky darkened especially early in the capital.
Dong Chong turned on the lights at home just after six o'clock. Of course, the lights in the corridor and on the second floor were not turned on. He turned on the lights in the kitchen and living room.
After all, other families would light candles and the like. He could not be too high-profile and attract hatred.
He went to the living room and turned on the heater. The reason it worked was that it didn't have a circuit board or anything like that, unlike an air conditioner! April in the capital was also relatively cold. The temperature at night could be as low as several degrees below zero. The nights without heating were also very painful.
Dinner was in the living room. Mapo Tofu, fried eggs with chili, and stir-fried meat.
The eggs were laid by the chickens in the courtyard. The family could not finish them at all. There were at least five or six eggs every day, and there were about ten more eggs. They could not finish them at all.
What else could his mother do when she was free? It's the same as a preserved egg, but it's made of eggs!
After a few months, there were already three small jars that could hold the changed eggs. One jar could hold 20 changed eggs!
