Daily life of a young couple in 60's Hutong

Chapter 41-50

Chapter 41

Everyone was surprised to see smoke coming out of the chimney in Zhao Lei's house. That place was not the kitchen, so how could there be smoke coming out?

"My Zhao Lei brought back an old heating stove."

"I have a child, I can't freeze."

Everyone thinks, "Yes, you have a child now, you must pay attention."

"Yes, yes, you have a child now, so you must be careful." Aunt Ding also pulled Wang Juan and told her various things to pay attention to.

Wang Juan kept nodding her head. It was a good thing to gain more experience. Many of the experiences she knew were summarized based on the conditions in later generations.

Zhang Cuihua stood by the window, looking at the people by the pool. She was getting angrier and angrier. "I'm so pissed off."

Ever since she found out that Wang Juan had a child, Zhang Cuihua felt that she had an opportunity to suppress Zhao Lei and his wife.

Unfortunately, she was unhappy, and Zhao Lei did not ask any questions about pregnant women.

"It's all because of these troublesome guys. They have to tell pregnant women to be careful." It is because of the existence of these troublesome guys that Zhao Lei and his wife can feel fearless.

Zhang Cuihua was very angry, but apart from being angry, she didn't know what to do.

Thinking of what the old man said, he couldn't help but curl his lips, "You still have to soften your attitude."

In the past few months, Zhao Lei stopped handing over his salary, and the old lady found that the family could not save much money every month.

In addition to the loss of more than 20 yuan in monthly salary, the food quota at home is becoming increasingly insufficient. Feng Caixia, who used to eat three meals a day at the company, now only eats two meals at home.

In order to prevent his family from going hungry, he had to purchase food on the black market to make up for the shortfall, which cost him a lot of money every month.

What made her even more unhappy was that the food on the black market was expensive, but there were a few times when they encountered inspections and they panicked and ran out of food.

After a few times, the loss would be huge. Zhang Cuihua remembered that Zhao Lei had never encountered such a thing when he went to the black market before, and the prices were not so expensive.

Thinking of the little food left at home, Zhang Cuihua sighed. The Spring Festival was approaching and everything was getting more expensive.

She wanted to buy it after the festival, but was worried that there would be nothing to buy after the festival so she could ask her eldest son to buy it again. She was also worried about what to do if the things were sold out again.

Letting the second brother go to buy it is smarter than the eldest brother, but he can't run fast. If someone goes to investigate the black market, won't they be caught immediately?

Helpless Zhang Cuihua decided to go find Zhao Lei. As for the money, she had decided to regard it as a gift from Zhao Lei and his wife.

Thinking of this, Zhang Cuihua stood up and walked to the yard, facing the east wing, "Old Third, Old Third."

When Wang Juan heard Zhang Cuihua calling her "the third brother", she knew that she was going to ask him to do some work again.

Aunt Hao curled her lips and said, "Your good mother-in-law must be planning to let your man work again."
