How to Thrive in the ’60s

"I asked Han Chen how long the train would take to come from the capital."

Gu Shinian replied with a smile, took the dumplings from Han Yang's hands, put them in front of Yun Chang, picked up the black-yellow, black-yellow wheat flour buns and stuffed them into his mouth.

Han Yang pushed the dishes on the table in front of Gu Shinian, took a chopstick and stuffed it into his mouth. After boasting that it was delicious, he added several chopsticks to Han Chen.

"Eat quickly, go back to rest immediately after eating, and send you back to your hometown in two days."

Han Chen was stunned for a moment, "Can't I go back to my hometown tomorrow?"

"What's the hurry? My grandfather called before and said that someone from my hometown came to the provincial hospital to see a doctor. I asked my dad to go to the hospital to find out if anyone has arrived. After two days after seeing the doctor, you can talk to your hometown. I have no time to take you back to your hometown, and the little ones in the family are not as good as you. "

Yun Chang's eating hand paused, and Gu Shinian glanced at each other, then lowered his head and slammed the dumplings.

If these two were not Han Shan's grandson, she would screw her head off and sit on the bench!

Why is this so coincidental?

Listening to Han Yang's meaning, Han Shan's eldest son should have gone to the hospital to find her and Gu Shinian. If he can't find it, should he go to the hostel to find it?

I hope that the old Yun family can receive the telegram sooner, but don't let the people of the old Han family fill the provincial capital looking for them.

Also, we can't let these two go on. If we go on, she and Gu Shinian will take off their vests and come to the scene to recognize their relatives.

"Ah Chang, eat slowly." Seeing Yun Chang eating too quickly, Gu Shinian reminded her first, then turned his head to Han Yang and said, "Brother Han Yang, let me ask you something."

"What are you asking about? You said, there is nothing in Linyang that I don't know about Han Yang!"

Han Yang readily responded.

The more he got in touch with Gu Shinian and Chang, the more Han Yang felt that these two children had an appetite.

The big one acts generously and prudently, and he is neither humble nor arrogant when dealing with people, while the small one seems to be weak and well-behaved, but he is also a thorn on the inside.

The most important thing is that the two brothers and sisters have straight eyes. Even if they see the conspicuous appearance of their cousin in the courtyard, there is no calculation or greed in their eyes.

At this moment, the other table of guests had already finished their meal and left. Apart from the waiter sitting at the counter, there were only four people sitting by the window in the hall.

Gu Shinian leaned forward slightly, lowered his voice and asked, "Brother Han Yang, I just want to ask where there is a black market in Linyang. My sister is weak and I want to buy some nutritional supplements for her."

Han Yang was stunned for a moment, turned back to look at Yun Chang, and saw that the flesh on both of their faces together was no more than that of his own younger brother's face, and the hair was sparse and yellow, and it was only tied in a small amount. It is caused by long-term nutritional deficiencies.

But seeing that Yunshang's clothes are thicker and fitter than ordinary children's clothes, and if you want to come home, you are not short of money, so why treat children like this?

This question only turned around in his head, and Han Yang found the answer immediately.

These days, the phenomenon of preference for sons over women is very common. Whether in urban or rural areas, whether in cadres or peasants, most people prefer males.

It's not too obvious when the days are good, and when the days are hard and the family lacks food, it's always the girls who go hungry.

Although the older generation often said that the palms of the hands and the backs of the hands are full of meat, the one held in the palm of the hand will always only be the male, and the girl will only be the piece of meat on the back of the elder’s hand.

Just like the brother and sister in front of me, the elder brother's health is decent, but the younger sister is severely malnourished. This kind of thing is too common.

Fortunately, this brother is not bad. He knows how to protect his sister, and he also knows how to secretly change things for her to eat. This is something that many boys from today can't match.

Thinking of this, Han Yang had a better impression of Gu Shinian, he also turned to his side and said in a low voice:

"We have three black market spots in Linyang,

One is near the Chengxi Textile Factory, one is in Guan Lane behind the department store, and the other is at the train station. I heard from friends that the black market in the railway station is the largest and has the most complete things, but it is too crowded and there are many second-rate people, so it is not very safe. "

Gu Shinian knew what to do, and just wanted to say thank you, but saw that he stuffed another piece of meat into his mouth, chewed it a few times and swallowed it, then said:

"If you really want to go to the black market, I suggest you go at four or five in the morning, which is safer than at night."

"Have Brother Han Yang been to the black market?" Yun Chang interjected and asked.

Han Yang's expression froze, and he smiled awkwardly, "That's not true, I also heard from my friends..."

In the following time, Han Yang repeated all the rumors about the black market that he had heard, until everyone put down their chopsticks and finally stopped.

Yun Chang quickly rubbed her eyes, yawned deliberately, and leaned against Gu Shinian:

"Second brother, I want to sleep."

Han Yang's son jumped out, and he was very curious. If he didn't leave quickly, when his interest came, maybe he would ask to accompany them to the black market, Yun Chang would not dare to stay any longer.

"Sleepy? Just hold on, and I'll take you back."

Gu Shinian understood Yun Chang's thoughts, put away the empty lunch box and stuffed it into his bag, got up and said goodbye to the Han brothers.

Han Yang is very talkative, and it is rare to encounter someone who can calm down and listen to all kinds of rumors and gossip from him.

While getting up to help him pack, he asked his home address, planning to go to Gu Shinian to play when he was free.

"Brother Han Yang, we are not from the provincial capital. We are temporarily staying with an acquaintance. We will be leaving the provincial capital in the next two days..."

Seeing the disappointment on the faces of the two brothers of the Han family, Gu Shinian said with a smile, "But Brother Han Yang can leave an address, and we can write to you when I go back."

Gu Shinian had basically confirmed that the two were Han Shan's grandsons, and he felt a little less defensive, and his attitude became more and more casual in the conversation.

Han Yang had a pen and paper in his bag, and he quickly wrote down the correspondence addresses of himself and Han Chen to Gu Shinian, and they separated at the door of the hotel.

Yun Chang looked at the distant backs of the two Han brothers, and asked Gu Shinian curiously, "Second brother Gu, is the news that Han Yang said reliable? Why is there a black market at the train station?"

"It should be reliable. The train station has a lot of traffic, and the black market is there. You can run to the train station in case of circumstances, which is safer than other places."

Yun Chang reacted, and suddenly felt that these people were too smart. As long as they were not caught, they hid in the train station and pretended to pick up or send people away, and they could leave calmly.

Thinking of this, Yun Chang was all excited, "Second brother Gu, shall we go to the black market tomorrow morning to see?"

Gu Shinian glanced down at Yun Chang's short legs and shook his head, "Don't worry, I still have business to do tomorrow, I'll take you to the black market before I go back."
