However, after saying this, Yan Bugui realized that he had said the wrong thing. An awkward smile appeared on his face. Just as he was about to open his mouth to defend what he had just said, he was interrupted by Yang Hehua.

"No, Second Uncle, most of my family members are women, and Qianqian is already a grown-up girl, so we should avoid suspicion. I think the relationship between our two families has not yet reached the stage where we need to eat together, so there is really no need for the two families to get together for dinner!"

"That's it for now! You just stay here and keep guarding!"

As soon as she finished speaking, Yang Hehua left quickly.

Yan Bugui was choked by these words. He felt very anxious and could only watch Yang Hehua's figure disappear at the Moon Gate.

There were people walking around in the courtyard at this time. Naturally, Yan Bugui's expression did not show much emotion, but his thoughts were different.

Almost half a year has passed, and his eldest son Yan Jiecheng has not made much progress.

Xiao Qian rarely goes out alone. Whenever she goes out, she either takes her three children with her or stays with Zhou Qi's grandmother or Zhang in the backyard.

Yan Bugui had more or less some understanding of his eldest son.

I want to get in touch with Yang Hehua's family, but I'm not thick-skinned enough and I'm not very good at speaking.

So the progress is not just a little bit slow.

Yan Bugui sat back on the small stool with his right hand hanging on his thigh. He was thinking about how to help his eldest son Yan Jiecheng get close to Xiao Qian. At the same time, his thumb and middle finger were unconsciously gathered and rubbed together.

Naturally, many people noticed the movement of Yang Hehua entering the courtyard carrying a rooster in her hand and a basket of things on her back.

During this period, almost the whole family went out to buy food, but there were very few people who could carry a whole basket on their backs like Yang Hehua.

It is impossible for Yang Hehua to buy so many things at the supply and marketing cooperative or grain store.

Because food is currently subject to purchase restrictions and the quantity that can be purchased at one time is limited, Yang Hehua may have gone to the black market or pigeon market to buy things.

However, they were just speculating and there was no substantial evidence.

Besides, food is an issue that everyone is paying attention to and it is also an issue that is taken very seriously.

There is some food stored at home, but not much.

I'm not jealous enough to report it.

More importantly, there is no evidence.

Yang Hehua had no idea what those people were thinking. The things in her backpack included thirty kilograms of sweet potatoes and twenty kilograms of potatoes, all of which were smuggled out from the farm space.

In addition, there are 5 kilograms of rice, 10 kilograms of white flour, kilograms of two-he flour, and kilograms of corn flour.

Yang Hehua no longer has any hope of living on a diet of pure fine grains.

The noses of these people in the yard are sharper than those of dogs.

They will definitely be able to smell if you have steamed rice at home.

So it’s better to use more flour to make buns and steamed buns, at least the taste won’t be so strong.

Besides, smelling the aroma of meat that was now everywhere in the yard, Yang Hehua felt that the Jia family and the He family would definitely become the target of public criticism.

Xiao Qian has already prepared lunch at home, a very simple lunch.

There are two kinds of steamed buns made of two kinds of flour and cornmeal steamed buns, as well as a bowl of fried sauerkraut, a bowl of cold cucumber salad, and a bowl of egg custard.

The corn flour was processed many times on the stone mill at home and was not very chewy. After Xiao Qian distributed it to the two girls, each got two steamed buns and half a cornmeal bun.

Xiaobao gets one steamed bun made of 1g of flour and one vodka.

As for Yang Hehua and Xiao Qian, they only had 2 steamed buns made of 3g flour and cornmeal steamed buns.

Yang Hehua and the children had no objection to Xiao Qian's distribution, as long as they were full.

Moreover, the steamed buns and corn bread at home are very sweet in the mouth, and they are also delicious when paired with egg custard.

Yang Hehua didn't want to spoil her children's appetites. You have to know that natural disasters lasted from 58 to 62, and it was not until 63 that no one starved to death.

So I have space for the farm, so the people at home won’t starve, but they can’t eat too well either.

After all, those hungry people in the yard won’t care so much after they smell the smell.

As for human nature, Yang Hehua thinks it is better not to test it easily.

The crops produced by my own farm space are limited every day and cannot save so many people, so being able to take care of my own family is already very good.

The Yan family at this moment.

After returning home, Yan Bugui was telling his family what he had just seen, and emphasized the content of his conversation with Yang Hehua.

Second Aunt Yang Ruihua was the first to speak after hearing this: "I really don't know what the Lotus Widow has to be so proud of. She's just a little girl. Why would she kill a chicken for her birthday? According to the current market price, this rooster is almost worth three yuan."

"If we use all of it to buy sweet potatoes or cornmeal, we can buy many kilograms of it."

When Yang Hehua came in from the Chuihua Gate carrying the rooster, Second Aunt Yang Ruihua also saw it. The rooster was indeed big. Since the announcement of grain purchase restrictions, she had taken her eldest son Yan Jiecheng to the pigeon market and the vegetable market several times and knew the prices of roosters and hens like the back of her hand.

The price of corn flour in the supply and marketing cooperatives has increased from 0.085 yuan per catty to cents per catty. Not to mention the prices of other products such as flour, white flour, and rice, which have also increased.

Upon seeing this, Second Aunt Yang Ruihua discussed with her husband Yan Bugui for a while and then adjusted their meals. Before, everyone could eat until they were 60% to 70% full, but now, they can only eat until they are 50% full.

Even when the four children protested, the two of them pretended not to hear them. They were annoyed by the noise, and Yan Bugui even provided evidence to prove that the meal adjustment for them was the right choice.

It is true that Yan Jiecheng is an adult, but he does not have a proper job. He relies on odd jobs every month and even has trouble eating out. It would be better for him to hand over 5 yuan to his family every month so that he can have food to eat every day.

Even though I really want to escape from this home, I don't have the money to do so.

The three younger ones below, seeing that their eldest brother did not raise any objections, naturally stopped talking.

But there has been a big change in the time after meals. He used to run to the yard to play, but now he just lies down at home after eating.

I would go to school when it was time to go to school, and from time to time I would follow my classmates to catch sparrows, keeping their claws and roasting and eating the rest of the sparrows in a remote place after they shed their feathers.

Although the sparrow is small, it is still some meat.
