Back to the 60s: The Struggle Career of a Charmed Wife

Ma Cuixia nodded and said: "Sister-in-law, I will go home in a while. When I send them letters and things, I will leave this matter to her. Isn't Xiaoman going out soon? Her father and I were about to leave this matter to this friend. I’m buying a Shanghai watch! By the way, I’ll pack up all the wild game you can’t eat and send it to me. I’ll give you the money at the market price. It’s not easy for people in the city to eat meat. There’s only one person in the capital every month. The supply of only four taels of meat is not even enough to fill our teeth."

"What kind of money are you asking for? How polite are you to ask for money?" As long as it can help them buy woolen blankets that need to be compensated for others, those wild game and wild products will be included in the thank-you gift. After Mrs. Ma said this, she went to pack up and packed up most of the sacks.

Boss Ma also took out a roll of unity.

Ma Cuixia said: "What does the wool blanket look like? Bring it and I will send it to Qingxue. Please buy it according to the shape."

Mrs. Ma immediately took out the wool blanket with several big holes in it. The wool blanket was folded at the time, and a flame fell on it and burned a large piece, causing four holes. The largest hole was as big as the mouth of a bowl. .

Ma Cuixia touched it and muttered: "This blanket feels worse than the material Qingxue gave Xiaoman to make a coat."

"What?" Mrs. Ma's eyes flashed with confusion.

Ma Cuixia smiled and said: "This friend we asked, the daughter-in-law of comrade Hu Ping, gave us a piece of wool. It was bright red and imported. It was not cheap at first glance. He said that Xiaoman was of marriage age and happened to find something for sale. So we bought it in advance to make Xiaoman’s wedding coat, and then asked Xiaoman to go to the city to find a tailor to make it herself, and use horn buttons to prevent us from damaging the material. Of course we can’t be stingy, after all, they are so generous. I have a request from someone, so I came to ask you to send me some wild game."

After hearing this, Mrs. Ma hurriedly said: "Listen to what you said, it must be the best material. Xiaoman must be the most handsome new wife in the house. We are just waiting to see Xiaoman's new coat!"

Boss Ma said, "Do your friends want wild game?"

"Yes, brother, the supply of food and non-staple food is limited in the city. Comrade Hu Ping's family is not short of money. He is of high rank and has many relatives and friends. Don't look at the things that my sister-in-law has packed up. It may not be so much when they arrive at their house. That’s enough.”

"Our family has lived here for hundreds of years. We all know who has the stock. Your nephew also goes into the mountains to hunt in groups. They all know how much is divided. Ask his uncle to ask his comrades. Do you need it? If so, we can collect some privately and send them to them," Ma Laodao said.

Although there is a black market in the city, how dangerous is the black market? If you are caught, you will have to go to labor camp, and the whole family will be embarrassed. Therefore, many villagers do not dare to sell on the black market when they are extremely short of money, let alone sell to the supply and marketing cooperative, because it is collectively owned. You can sell some of your own vegetables, eggs and the like.

Ma Cuixia has experience in this matter. After all, the Lu family has asked them to buy Laoshan ginseng, and her parents' family has more supplies than her husband's family. "Okay, brother, their family will definitely need it. Don't worry about money, what they will give is higher than the market price." price."

Boss Ma went out for a trip, and within half a day, his uncle, who was well-connected and short of money, came with a basket.

Ma Cuixia had learned how to read and calculate accounts from Hu Ping and her children. She listed them one by one on the list and warned: "I didn't bring any money today. I will send it to you tomorrow. It won't cost you a penny. Don't say it's for sale. If someone asks "I just said that our family wanted it and wanted to send some New Year's goods to our comrades in Hu Ping, but I didn't give you any money."
