There was less than a month to go before the New Year. Every family in the Siheyuan began to prepare for the New Year.
Li Weiguo's family did not need to go hungry. In the past, he could just prepare some New Year's goods, but now that he had a partner, he needed to prepare more.
The system also gave Li Weiguo confidence.
In the past, he relied on his salary to earn some extra money. Although he ate a lot of fine grain and meat, his life was not as comfortable as it was now.
Today's check-in was 30 catties of oranges, 50 catties of honeydew, 1 catty of raisins, and a box of chocolate biscuits.
Li Weiguo's money now exceeded 1,000 yuan.
When he got married to Yu Li, he would definitely have all three turns and one ring. His family would have at least thirty-six legs.
He could take out whatever the system gave him without worry. Even if the police investigated, there would not be any problems. Therefore, he was not afraid of being reported.
At the entrance of the courtyard, a few children were playing. Among them was Bang Heng, his sister Xiao Dang, and Liu Guangfu.
"Brother Li." Outside the courtyard, Yan Jiekuang shouted with a smile.
Currently, the Yan Family and Li Weiguo were the closest to the Siheyuan.
Other than the fact that the Yan family liked to scheme, the Yan family was fine.
"You didn't play with Liu Guangfu and the others?”Li Weiguo smiled.
"It's boring. Besides, I'm unhappy when I see that thief.”Yan Jiekuang said.
Now, if anyone was missing a cabbage heart or a needle, they would suspect that it was stolen by a stick.
After thinking for a while, Li Weiguo reached into his pocket and took out a few White Rabbit Creamy Candies from the System Space.
"These milk candies are for you."
The system had given Li Weiguo a lot of toffees. Now, it was not a problem for him to take out 100 catties of toffees. Taking out a few for Yan Jiekuang was like sprinkling water.
However, milk candy was not cheap. If Li Weiguo gave too much, others would think too much.
"Thank you, Brother Li." Yan Jiekuang became excited.
Although it was only a few milk candies, Yan Jiekuang didn't even get one milk candy during the New Year. Now that he had a few, he was overjoyed.
For children in this era, having a milk candy was enough to show off.
Collecting candy wraps was also a hobby of the children.
The more candy wraps he had, the more he could show off. This meant that he had eaten a lot of candy.
Li Weiguo casually gave Yan Jiekuang a few candies and left on his bicycle.
When the meme saw Li Weiguo giving Yan Jiekuang a few milk candies, his eyes were filled with jealousy.
"Brother, give me a milk candy!" Yan Jiedi ran to Yan Jiekuang.
"I can give you one, but you have to sweep the floor and wash the dishes for me next year.”Yan Jiekuang said.
Good heavens, a milk candy was enough for Yan Jiedi to sweep the floor and wash the dishes for a year.
Yan Jiedi hesitated for a moment before agreeing.
After giving Yan Jiedi a milk candy, Yan Jiekang asked for a candy wrapper, but Yan Jiedi didn't want to give it to him.
Yan Jiekang and Yan Jiedi almost quarreled over a candy wrapper.
……
At the supply and marketing cooperative, Li Weiguo met Liu Guangqi.
Liu Guangqi also had a girlfriend, and the girl was from another city.
Liu Haizhong and his wife treated Liu Guangqi very well, but Liu Guangqi was an ingrate.
In the original novel, Liu Guangqi ignored his parents and two younger brothers after he got married.
Li Weiguo and Liu Guangqi didn't know each other, so he pretended not to see anything.
Now, Li Weiguo and Liu Haizhong's family did not have a good relationship.
Obviously, Liu Guangqi was here to buy New Year's goods.
Liu Guangqi bought peanuts and melon seeds.
Li Weiguo first went to buy two catties of sausages.
There were still three catties of sausages in the system space. If he bought two catties now, he would only be able to make five catties.
In fact, Li Weiguo really wanted to buy ten or twenty catties of sausages. This supply and marketing cooperative had dozens of catties of sausages, but it was not something that could be bought with money and tickets. Everyone had a quota.
According to the quota, he could only buy five catties of sausages a month, and he could not buy them all at once.
Of course, if they had connections, it was easy to buy three or five catties of sausages at a time.
If they wanted to exceed the quota, they either had to go to Pigeon City or have a recommendation letter.
After buying two catties of sausages, Li Weiguo bought a lot of things.
……
The rolling mill was on holiday. There were only five days left until the new year. They would start work on the eighth day of the new year.
Before the new year, the factory paid their salaries.
It was worth mentioning that Li Weiguo was a Level 5 Welder and was also the team leader of the workshop. He received a monthly allowance.
Now, Li Weiguo's monthly salary plus his allowance was more than 50 yuan.
In this courtyard house, only Yi Zhonghai and Liu Haizhong had higher salaries than Li Weiguo.
The deaf old lady did not have a job, but the country gave her 70 yuan every month.
The Deaf Old Lady's family was full of martyrs, so the country would not treat her badly.
Moreover, the Deaf Old Lady's monthly quota was also the highest in the courtyard. The street office and the rolling mill often sent some food stamps.
If they thought that the Deaf Old Lady was being supported by Yi Zhonghai and his wife, they would be gravely mistaken.
The country even gave the deaf old lady free medical treatment.
In other words, the Deaf Old Lady went to the hospital for free.
The so-called five guarantees meant that the country guaranteed food, clothing, medical care, and burial.
Therefore, the Deaf Old Lady did not have to worry about her retirement. No one was supporting her, but the country was.
The deaf old lady was not the only one among the five guarantees in the country. Most of them were supported by the state.
Therefore, the Deaf Old Lady treated Silly Zhu as her own grandson and treated him well, not because she wanted him to support her in her old age.
In the original novel, after the deaf old lady died, she gave the house to Silly Zhu. However, Silly Zhu did not live up to expectations, and the deaf old lady's house ended up with the surname Jia.
To Shazhu, the deaf old lady was very good, but to others, it was different.
Li Weiguo ignored the Deaf Old Lady. The Deaf Old Lady did not treat him well, and he did not owe her anything. Was there a need to care for her?
With Yi Zhonghai and his wife, Silly Zhu, and the country, the Deaf Old Lady did not lack care.
For example, Li Weiguo did not want to pursue the matter of the stick thief coming to Li Weiguo's house to steal things, but it was useless to pursue it.
The child was not sensible.
If someone tried to smooth things over and advised Li Weiguo to be more magnanimous, Li Weiguo might become petty.
At this moment, some people in the courtyard looked at Li Weiguo enviously.
Li Weiguo was sun-drying salted fish, dried meat, and sausages outside.
In the past, Li Weiguo's New Year's goods were already pretty good. This year, it was even more eye-catching.
Jia family.
Jia Zhang-shi also saw the sausages and other things that were drying outside Li Weiguo's house, but her eyes turned green.
Jia Zhang-shi wished she could snatch it.
"This Li Weiguo is really a beast. He doesn't even know how to give some to my family.”Jia Zhangshi cursed.
Compared to Li Weiguo, the New Year's goods prepared by other families were far inferior.
This year, the Jia family's New Year's goods were half a catty of pork and half a catty of sausages, as well as cabbage and sweet potatoes.
Now, Jia Zhang-shi could only be jealous. After all, her Jia family and Li Weiguo did not have a good relationship. Even if she and the others in the quad kidnapped her, Li Weiguo would not compromise.
It could be said that Li Weiguo was unmoved by both persuasion and coercion.
Jia Zhangshi was not the only one who was envious.
……
Li Weiguo was considering what gift to send to Yu Li's house.
Usually, some rice and noodles would be enough. It would be even better if there were eggs and meat.
