At night.
"Ding…"
"You have four packages to sign for.”
Every night, before dinner, the delivery system would arrive on time.
Wang Weiguo silently signed the receipt in his heart.
"You got a box of canned pineapple, a box of fruit biscuits, three pounds of White Rabbit Creamy Candies, and a pair of Quartz Watches.”
Quartz watch!
This was something that many people wanted, something that money could not buy.
With a thought, Wang Weiguo took out the watch. There was nothing wrong with the Shanghai Quartz Watch.
This was something that could only be bought with a ticket.
They were a pair.
One for men and one for women.
Back then, Third Uncle almost fought with the other teachers in the school for a watch ticket.
Three turns and one ring.
The watch was one of them.
In the entire factory, only the director, deputy director, and chairman had watches.
Yi Zhonghai was still a level seven fitter. Once he reached level eight, he would probably have a chance to get a ticket to buy a watch.
Second Uncle was now a Level 6 blacksmith. He had always wanted to be an official. Every time he saw that his wrist was empty, he felt very conflicted.
In the courtyard house, whoever had the first watch would be the brightest person.
Xu Damao had a big mouth. He had been working hard. He originally wanted to rely on Lou Xiao'e's relationship to get a piece.
However, he did not expect that this hope would be shattered.
White Rabbit Creamy Candy and biscuits were children's favorites. They were also noble snacks that could only be found during the New Year.
The usually sensible child wanted to eat the biscuits, so he could only look outside the glass. After enjoying his eyes, he swallowed his saliva and went home.
They knew that their families couldn't afford it.
Canned pineapple.
He was considerate. Knowing that he did not have any tools to peel and dig holes, he directly brought canned food.
He grabbed the can and took out a piece.
The yellow flesh of the fruit shone with a sugar-colored light in front of his eyes. He ate it in one bite and it was sweet to the heart.
After transmigrating, Wang Weiguo had not tasted the refreshing sweetness of this fruit for a long time.
In this era, sugar was very scarce.
White Rabbit Creamy Candy and the like could only be bought with a receipt.
She couldn't stop eating.
After eating the canned food, he made a simple dinner.
Tonight, the courtyard was destined to not be peaceful.
……
In this era, there was severe malnutrition.
It was very difficult to fill one's stomach. Basically, no one paid attention to nutrition.
As long as they could fill their stomachs, they would eat whatever they had.
As long as there were no major problems with her body, she would not go to the hospital if she could.
Night blindness was very common in this era.
It was also thanks to Wang Weiguo's transmigration that his body was in good condition. In addition, he had been alone for the past two years.
His monthly salary was enough to afford the most basic and balanced diet.
At night, his eyesight was better than most people in the courtyard.
When he went out to get some water, he saw two people in the middle of the courtyard in a corner, as if they were plotting something.
In the end, the two of them exchanged things before leaving.
Qin Huairu and Yi Zhonghai.
Judging from the size of the items they exchanged, they didn't look like things like noodles. The items were very small and could be grabbed with one hand.
They were too far away to hear what they were talking about.
However, Qin Huairu seemed to be very happy when she left.
Although Yi Zhonghai's face was dark, his footsteps seemed to be quite brisk when he left.
……
The next day.
The atmosphere in the courtyard inadvertently became more solemn.
It was as if they had tacitly pressed a heavy button. The originally light greeting seemed to have weight today.
Everyone had something on their minds and their faces were gloomy.
The Deaf Old Lady woke up early, which was rare. She sat by the door and looked at the courtyard.
When Wang Weiguo arrived at the middle court, he saw Yi Zhonghai sitting by the door without moving.
It seemed like she had taken leave today. Qin Huairu came out to get some water. After she was done, she went straight back. It seemed like she didn't have to go to work.
The two of them seemed to have no intention, but in Wang Weiguo's eyes, they were deliberately exchanging some information through their gazes.
Shaking his head, Wang Weiguo walked out of the courtyard house.
On the way to work, he saw Wang Ma rushing over from afar, followed by Lou Xiao'e, who was a little unhappy.
Wang Ma's small feet walked very quickly. Although she said she was walking, it was actually almost like running.
In his hurry, he saw Wang Weiguo.
When he saw Wang Weiguo, it was as if he had seen his savior. He hurriedly went in front of Wang Weiguo.
"You're going to work!"
Wang Weiguo nodded and looked at Lou Xiao'e behind her. Unlike yesterday, she was very depressed today.
"Yes!" Wang Weiguo nodded.
Mother Wang anxiously looked at the courtyard house two hundred meters behind Wang Weiguo, and then at the steel mill that could already be seen.
"Can you take a leave of absence?"
Wang Weiguo frowned, indicating that he didn't understand what he meant.
Mother Wang seemed really anxious and anxious. Seeing that Wang Weiguo didn't agree and even frowned, she couldn't help but say it.
"Miss Lou Xiao'e told me yesterday afternoon that she didn't want to go to the courtyard house to go on a blind date with Shazhu.”
"But she agreed the day before yesterday.”
"The deaf old lady is not easy to deal with. Last night, she asked an acquaintance to go to the Lou family. The Lou family's parents took care of their face and insisted that Lou Xiao'e come.”
