Chapter 262 Heart knot

Since the founding of the People's Republic of China, milk powder has been extremely scarce.

Most milk powder comes from foreign brands and is often snapped up by wealthy people before it is officially launched on the market.

As for domestic milk powder, it is also difficult for ordinary people to buy it.

Although enterprises such as Heilongjiang Anda Dairy Factory and Inner Mongolia Hailar Dairy Factory were able to produce milk powder in 1952, the production scale and output of milk powder in my country at that time were relatively limited, and were restricted by many factors such as production technology, raw material supply and transportation conditions. As a result, it was really difficult to actually buy milk powder.

Apart from the part allocated by the state, the remaining amount of milk powder is simply unable to meet the national demand.

Whenever milk powder is sold in a store, it will be sold out quickly.

This made it extremely difficult for Zhou Tian, ​​the factory director, to buy milk powder. He could only exchange some supplies for milk powder every time he received salary to solve the urgent problem.

If there was only one child, the milk powder might be enough, but his family now has three children, so it seems to be stretched.

It was also his own negligence. He did not have enough knowledge about the situation of milk powder in this era. He always thought that he had exchanged a large amount of milk powder, until now he realized that it was not enough.

Just when Zhou Tian was getting a little anxious, Chang Wen and Chang Wu hurried in, carrying a large military bag on their backs.

"Commander, the milk powder has been applied for and it's all in here!"

As Chang Wen spoke, he put down the military bag behind him and opened it. Bags of Red Star brand milk powder suddenly came into Zhou Tian's sight.

"so much?"

Zhou Tian was shocked when he saw the backpack full of milk powder in front of him.

"Commander, there are a total of 38 bags of milk powder, which the old commander applied for specially for you!"

Chang Wen said solemnly.

"Okay, that's great, thank you very much, Chang Wen!" Seeing so much milk powder, Zhou Tian's face instantly showed excitement.

With this milk powder, the children will no longer have to go hungry.

"Commander, the old commander said that you don't have to worry about your milk powder problem in the future. Before your child is two years old, he will send you 38 bags of milk powder every month!"

"Really? That's great, Chang Wen, thank you so much, Mr. Tang!"

When Zhou Tian learned that there would be so much milk powder every month, he was so excited that he couldn't express it in words.

Just now he was thinking that if it really didn't work, he would just raise a few cows in his own space, but now he has 38 bags of milk powder every month, so he won't have to look for people to exchange milk powder for him anymore.

"Okay, I won't say any more. I'm going to go back and make milk powder for my daughter. I'm leaving now!"

Zhou Tian originally wanted to exchange a few more polite words with Chang Wen, but when he thought of his daughter who was still hungry, he didn't want to delay any longer. He picked up his military bag, turned around and walked towards the inner house.

"Wife, wife, look, I got the milk powder back!"

Before entering the yard, Zhou Tian shouted happily. This joy even exceeded his previous feelings when he developed a new project.

"Boss, I really brought it back. Come on, make some for my daughter!"

Shen Yulin coaxed her daughter in her arms, her pretty face full of excitement, and urged anxiously.

"Okay, I'll go soak it now!"

As he spoke, Zhou Tian listened to his daughter still crying and wished he could grow two more legs. He ran quickly into the main room, put the milk powder in his hand on the ground, picked up the bottle and started to make the milk powder.

After mixing the milk powder and testing the temperature, he hurried to his wife and handed her the bottle.

Sure enough, when the little guy put the bottle in his mouth, his red face suddenly showed a satisfied smile. After drinking the milk powder, the little guy, perhaps tired of crying, fell asleep in Shen Yulin's arms.

"Finally fell asleep!"

Watching the little guy fall asleep, both Shen Yulin and Zhou Tian couldn't help but wipe away a cold sweat. They were really both scared by this little guy.

As the three children fell asleep, grandmother and mother-in-law also came out of the room.

"Grandson, where did you buy all that milk powder on the ground?"

Grandma looked excited and took a few steps to Zhou Tian and asked. The mother-in-law also looked at her son-in-law with anticipation.

"Grandma, Mom, this is a benefit given to me by my superiors. Our family will never be short of milk powder again!"

Looking at the excited expressions of his grandmother and mother-in-law, Zhou Tian remembered what he had just said to them, and couldn't help feeling guilty.

"What? Really? That's great!"

As grandma spoke, her eyes suddenly turned red, and so did my mother-in-law.

"Grandma, Mom, what's wrong with you?"

Seeing that the two seemed to be about to cry, Zhou Tian suddenly panicked, and hurriedly stepped forward to hold his grandmother's hand, and asked with concern.

"Grandson, it's not that grandma and your mother-in-law don't love us. We just don't have enough milk powder. Your mother and I are very sad, but we just couldn't do anything!"

There was a look of grievance in the grandmother's eyes. It was obvious that the eldest grandson's words had hurt the old woman a little.

"Yes, Xiaotian, the old lady and I really have no other choice. We can only take care of our grandson first. Please don't blame us!" Mother-in-law Li Yuling also said while crying.

"Grandma, Mom, I know, I know everything. How could I hate you? It's just that I spoke a little too harshly just now. I'm sorry!"

Zhou Tian actually understood the actions of his grandmother and mother-in-law. In this era, boys are regarded as the backbone of a family. If they encounter a situation like the one just mentioned, every family will basically do the same thing.

After all, in this era, boys are so important to a family.

"Grandson, I'm glad you understand. Grandma and your mother can't do anything about it. Now that we have so much milk powder, the children will grow up quickly in the future!"

Grandma wiped the tears from her eyes and said happily.

"What's going on? Why are you all so sad?"

Just then, grandpa and father-in-law walked in from outside, and seeing the tears in the corners of grandma and mother-in-law's eyes, they couldn't help but ask curiously.

"Nothing, just a little happy!" Grandma said before her mother-in-law could speak.

"Grandpa, this is what happened." Zhou Tian did not hide anything and told his grandfather and father-in-law the whole story.

After hearing Zhou Tian’s words, Grandpa and father-in-law fell silent.

"Xiaotian, everyone is at fault in this matter, but no one can blame anyone else. If we have to blame someone, we should blame our country for its slow development."

After a long while, father-in-law Shen Jie sighed. After all, if he were in his wife's shoes, he would probably make the same choice.

"Grandson, your father-in-law is right, but we are a family, some things just need to be talked out, it's okay."

The grandfather seemed to be afraid that his eldest grandson might feel upset, so he spoke in an open-minded manner.

"Grandpa, Dad, I know everything."

The family talked about the topic thoroughly, and the knots in their hearts were naturally untied, and everyone returned to the harmony of the past. A day passed quickly in the midst of chatting and laughing.

At night, lying in bed, Shen Yulin looked worried, looking at her husband who was still looking at the roof and said, "Boss, did we go too far today?"

"Hey, don't think about it. It will definitely have an impact, but don't worry, it will be fine in a few days at most."

To be honest, he did what happened today without knowing the specific reason, but it was wrong and he would not deny it.

But he knew it would be difficult to let this matter go all at once.

Fortunately, both his mother-in-law and grandmother are very nice to him and they probably won't care too much about this matter.

"Yeah!" Shen Yulin nodded when she heard her husband's words. She knew that her husband was very influential at home, and both her mother and grandmother were somewhat obedient to her husband.

Since her husband said so, she felt relieved.
