Siheyuan: Starved to death at the beginning, the whole courtyard went to shoot

Grandma Qinghe was stopped and held the box of her reading glasses in her hand, not wanting to show it to anyone.

This thing is almost non-existent in rural areas, and no one is aware of it. People just know that they can see things clearly when they wear it, but they have never seen it.

When Grandma Qinghe slowly opened the box, a pair of glasses appeared.

The others all looked disappointed.

"Aren't these just glasses! Why are they called reading glasses? I thought they could help me see flowers!" said an unfamiliar aunt.

"What nonsense! How can reading glasses be the same as glasses? The ones my grandson-in-law brings must be no different." Grandma Qinghe picked up the reading glasses, put them on her face, and in an instant she could see everything nearby clearly.

Then she picked up the sewing box, found a needle, picked up the thread, and put it on in one go.

Everyone was surprised. Is it so effective?

"Auntie, let me use it, I want to thread the needle too!"

"Me! I come first!"

"All of you go aside, I am older than you, I will go first!"

"No, it was given to me by my grandson-in-law, and you broke it again!"

"Don't be stingy, sister-in-law!"

......

Li Feiyu was also speechless. It was just a pair of reading glasses. Many people in the village had never seen them. But in the old city, even if you didn't use them, everyone had seen them.

It can be seen that many cognitive gaps have not changed from the beginning to the end, which can be reflected in this small pair of reading glasses.

No wonder the villagers try every possible means to get city hukou. Not only is there a huge gap in terms of access to commercial grain, but also in terms of living, studying, and the environment for their future children and grandchildren.

It’s no wonder that people from all over the place are trying to marry into Su Qinghe’s family. He is really a popular commodity.

Sister-in-law Su Qingzhu also wanted to go and take a look. She was also curious about what reading glasses were, but Grandma Qinghe took off her glasses and put them in a box. She didn't show them to anyone and stuffed them into her clothes like a treasure.

"Fei Yu, Qing Zhu, let's go home. It's almost noon, let's go home and cook." After saying that, he pushed through the crowd and went home.

"You are so stingy. I won't sew shoe soles with you anymore." said a grandmother of the same age. It seemed that she was Grandma Qinghe's best friend.

"If we don't want to go together, then we don't. I just have my grandson-in-law's reading glasses! Haha!" Grandma Qinghe said proudly.

"Look at what you can do!" an old lady said, "Fei Yu, my granddaughter is also very beautiful. If she has a big butt, she will definitely give birth to a son!"

"Get out of here, all of you! Feiyu, let's go home!" Grandma Qinghe's eyes changed, and she pulled Li Feiyu away.

"Forget it, I like girls with small butts! Haha!" Li Feiyu shouted jokingly.

"Tsk, who are you kidding? Qinghe is not small either..."

Grandma Qinghe took him back home and closed the door, for fear that Li Feiyu would be seduced away by that little goblin.

Not only Su Qinghe is a hot commodity here, Li Feiyu is even more of a hot commodity. If there is any news that he and Su Qinghe have broken up,

I guess all the pretty girls from all over the country would throw themselves at his arms without hesitation, that's how popular city guys are.

But most people are unwilling to marry rural girls. First of all, rural residents have basically no welfare benefits in the city. On the other hand, there is a big gap between urban and rural living habits and education levels, and city people are more face-conscious!

This lets everyone know that if someone marries a rural girl, he will be looked down upon and ridiculed, unless the girl is very beautiful.

For example, Qin Huairu, who is round and plump, has a pretty face, a plump front and a big back, is good at bearing children, is strong, can work, and is hardworking, which is in line with contemporary aesthetic standards.

Someone like Su Qinghe is more in line with the aesthetics of later generations, with an oval face, fair skin, and a slim figure, looking a little delicate. Anyway, Li Feiyu likes people like this, with plump and round faces... A dozen of them would be nice, haha.

When they got home, Grandma Qinghe stopped cooking and treated her reading glasses like a treasure, taking them with her wherever she went and taking them out to look at them from time to time.

Su Qinghe didn't know whether to laugh or cry, but he liked Li Feiyu's attentiveness even more and rewarded him with a kiss on the cheek.

Li Feiyu wanted to push his luck further, but was driven out of the kitchen by Su Qinghe who held a kitchen knife.

"Brother-in-law, I also want to see reading glasses. Grandma loves them so much that I can't even wear them!" Su Qingzhu said somewhat resentfully.

"I want to see it! I have another pair here, but what's the benefit to me!" Li Feiyu took out another pair of glasses from his pocket and looked at Su Qingzhu cunningly. These were prepared for Grandpa Qinghe.

"Oh! Brother-in-law, you still have some, let me see it!" Su Qingzhu tried to grab it, but Li Feiyu held the small box containing the glasses high up, and Su Qingzhu, an eleven-year-old girl, couldn't reach it.

After dancing for a while, Su Qingzhu couldn't reach it and said angrily, "I only have three candies left! They're all yours!"

"Why do I need your candy? I want to ask you, what else is interesting about your sister besides the fact that she wet the bed at the age of five?" Li Feiyu said.

Upon hearing this, Su Qingzhu put away the three candies and became excited.

"There are many. My sister is most afraid of snakes, caterpillars, and mice. One time, my sister was climbing a tree and a snake landed on her shoulder. She fell from the tree and her butt was broken. After that, she was afraid of ropes for a long time."

"If you don't believe me, just shout at night and she will be scared to death!" Su Qingzhu said proudly.

Li Feiyu's eyes rolled, "How do you know all this? You were still young at that time! How do you remember it?"

"My grandma, my mom, my second brother and my third brother told me this. Whenever they miss my sister, they tell me about it. My ears are so tired of hearing it!"

"Is there anything else?" Li Feiyu became interested.

"And my sister can't stand the sound of nails scratching glass and the strange sound when the door opens and closes. It reminds her of ghosts and monsters. If you want to scare her, hehe!" Su Qinghe's eyes sparkled and he reached out for his reading glasses.

"Here you go, sister-in-law. Do you want more candy? Hehe!" Li Feiyu said as he took out another handful of candy from his pocket.

Su Qingzhu's eyes brightened, "I want to!"

Li Feiyu leaned close to Su Qingzhu's ear and whispered, "Then listen to me. Wait till tonight..."

Su Qinghe, who was cooking, saw Li Feiyu and the other man talking excitedly, and was grinning, feeling quite relieved.

But if she knew what the two were plotting, she would probably, well...

Half an hour later, Grandpa Qinghe, Su Dahong, Ye Lan, Su Qingshan and Su Qingyan came back with hoes.

After working for a whole morning, everyone felt a little tired, and their faces did not look very good, with gloomy expressions.

"What's going on?" Su Qinghe asked in confusion.

After they sat down, Su Dahong sighed and said, "Today, the production team has selected more than a dozen people to go to the steel production project, and they have also asked their families to donate any iron items."

"There is already a shortage of manpower for farm work, and most of the grain was paid as public grain last time. People are not well fed and have no energy to work. Add to that the drought, and this harvest is wasted!" Grandpa Qinghe also said.

"Huh? Most of them pay public grain? What's going on? The taxes in our country shouldn't be heavy!" Li Feiyu asked.
