Zhao Ping gave the car to the Fourth Master and asked the factory office and the trade union to visit the next day. This was a funeral, at least he had to express condolences on behalf of the factory. This was also a gift for the couple.

The family of six left first. Chang Qiuyun and Lin Baichuan took Dayuan with him and planned to go back the next day. The in-laws are gone, so they have to go back and check it out no matter how hard they are.

Lin Yutong and the Fourth Master arrived home first. There was nothing to prepare for this year. People were just putting them on wooden boards.

None of these children had ever seen their grandfather before, and they looked curiously, and knelt down and kowtowed with the adults, but they didn't say anything and cried.

When the person is gone, the Fourth Master must ask: Why are people gone?

Sick? Or what?

I realized that I had cooked elm bark porridge at home, and this thing was sticky and sticky. Jin Dashan was so hungry that he was anxious to eat it. If he ate it hot, he would lose his people.

This is burnt to death.

The Fourth Master just looked at Li Yuefen, but Li Yuefen lowered her head and didn't say a word.

The Fourth Master asked her: I can’t save one or two of the food for my father?

Li Yuefen did not answer, covered her mouth and cried: It was really not intentional, I really didn't expect it

Yes! No one expected it.

Many people who do not have overnight food at home did not starve to death. Instead, people like them who can make up their homes to survive the spring famine will complete their lives in this way.

What can you say about Li Yuefen?

There was a funeral, and I couldn't get it today. I had to stay at night. Liu Lingdang hungry the kangs at home and asked a few children to sleep. Da Ni came with a few children, but she kowtowed and went home, saying that she would come back tomorrow. The main reason was to consider not eating the food here. When asked Er Ni, she found out that the couple had taken the children out to beg for food and never came back. Then this must be impossible to notify. Just like that, I can't come, but I'm gone anyway.

The next day, Qian Siyuan and a colleague came to the factory. Lin Baichuan and Chang Qiuyun also returned to the village and came to lit a stick of incense. Dayuan told Lin Yutong: Su Jin is here too. I didn't call him.

No. Lin Yutong said: Xiaoxing is not young anymore, so stop tossing.

The funeral ceremony was very simple. The tangerine wooden coffin moved the person into it and carried it to bury it. There was no such process as setting up a mat. If the person was buried, that was enough. Whether it was a relative or a friend, it would be separated.

Lin Baichuan hasn't come back for many years, so he went to other families in the village. It must have been a few days since Lin Yutong took the children and didn't stay for too long, and he went back first without waiting for them.

On the way, Danyang said: Why is that guy who is my breast milk like that? After that, he said: He secretly asked me who my elder brother is.

Of course, Li Yuefen has to ask if there is an extra grandson.

What did you say? Lin Yutong asked her.

He said that it was my elder brother, named Lin Duanyang. Danyang covered his mouth and laughed. When my breasts heard that their surname was Lin, they didn't ask anything.

I'm afraid I'll be treated as a distant relative of the Lin family.

On the surface, this incident had no effect on several children. But in fact, the impact was quite large. At least I never heard them say what they asked for. They ate whatever they were given. They strictly followed the requirement of only 70% full per meal, and never took one more bite. For example, if they didn't dare to peel roasted sweet potatoes, they ate them with the sweet potato skins.

Children realize: Food is really too precious.

Everyone knows that food is precious, so Qian Siyuan is particularly sincere when he comes to Xie Siye on his back at night.

Last time he went back, he said he was paying condolences on behalf of the factory, but in fact he was looking for an opportunity to go back and see his parents. He also secretly stuffed two large bags of food into his luggage bag.

As a result, I found out when I got home and had food at home. After hearing what my father said, I realized that someone had helped me.

Qian Siyuan feels all the same feeling.

At this time, it is rare to be able to take out food!

Lin Baichuan came back from his hometown and looked for contacts everywhere, wanting to get some food for his hometown. For this reason, Murakami also sent two young men who could do things to follow. Both of them knew how to look at their faces.

After watching it for two days, I knew it. I didn’t want much, so I said: Uncle Baichuan, you can’t make mistakes. We don’t want food, we just need sweet potato vines, corn poles, corn cores. If we can’t give too much food, it’s enough for anyone to eat. It’s better to be realistic.

But Lin Baichuan felt particularly uncomfortable with such a request. He still found a way to get a truck of the small and thin sweet potatoes, and asked to take them back, and at least pass the spring famine next spring.

In the past, it was just considered corn poles and corn cores burned by firewood, and then crushed them into powder in a stone mill, and then eaten as food.

If animals can be eaten, people can eat them.

When eating, I squeeze my throat and when I squeeze my butt, it tastes bad anyway.

But with this thing, life still went on. I haven't heard of anyone going out to beg for food, and which family starved to death.

The Spring Festival in 1960s was in this atmosphere.

Such a difficult year finally got over. I feel lucky!

The Chinese New Year is the simplest. No one says to prepare New Year’s goods in advance. There is nothing to sell in the non-staple food store outside. Don’t think about meat, you can’t buy it.

New Year greetings, which were not very popular in previous years, have suddenly become popular again this year.

Many relatives who didn’t contact each other in my hometown came to pay New Year’s greetings. What did you come to get? A handful of wild vegetables is considered a festive ceremony. But the family came, and the family brought their families, and they were young and small, and they were all ten. They would eat for a day.

To put it bluntly, it is just to make a full meal.

But no one’s family’s food is rich!

Lin Yutong took the children to the Lin family and saw more than a dozen people at the door of Guilan's house. But Guilan was closed tightly, but the door was not opened. An old lady came over and asked: Daughter, do you know where Guilan in our family went? When will you come back?

Are you? Lin Yutong doesn’t know who this person is. If he is an unimportant relative, it would be a bit difficult to come to the door like this.

The old lady said: I am her aunt!

Lin Yutong looked at the smoke coming out of Guilan's smoke cooking family and sighed in her heart: This must be the one who is at home, but she doesn't want to open the door. She can't afford to eat so many people!

She said: Maybe she has gone to visit relatives. When she comes back, I told her that you have been here.

But the old lady shook her head: Then we don't have to wait for her

It's a big deal!

As a result, when the family came back from the Lin family, it was almost evening, and the dozen people had not left yet.

It was just that someone was at the door of the house. When he arrived at his door, Lin Yutong saw someone squatting at the door. The Fourth Master pulled Tongtong backwards, leaned over and saw him shouting: Second brother-in-law?

The man stood up: The fourth brother is back?

When did you come? Lin Yutong quickly said, go in quickly.

The second brother-in-law rubbed his hands and took out a small cloth pocket from his arms. He didn't bring anything to him. Don't dislike this little thing. When you went there, your second sister and I were not at home. We came back only after the first day of the New Year. So, after the first day of the New Year, I came here.

There was a kilogram of peanuts or two in my pocket. It should have been taken out of the voles' nest.

Lin Yutong went to prepare the meal, and the Fourth Master asked him where he had gone.

The man said, and then said: I won’t go out in the future, and it’s almost the same everywhere. Even I saw it in the city, and there was no extra ration.

Lin Yutong brought him a bun, but he gritted his teeth and ate only one: keep it for the children.

I asked him to stay for one night, but why didn't I refuse: Your second sister is still waiting at home, and she is worried if she doesn't go back.

In the middle of the night, the Fourth Master borrowed another car and took his second brother-in-law to send it back. He also gave it a little to Dani's family. It would be better to choose this time at night, so that the food at home can attract people to worry about it.

The food brought by the Fourth Master this time is not only for the family, but also for the exploration team!

When I went there last time, I wanted to see it. As a result, I asked the people in the village and found out that the exploration team went along the mountain to a deeper place. As for where I got, no one knew. I didn’t meet it!

But now it’s the Chinese New Year, the Fourth Master wants to try his luck and see if they have returned to the Murakami.

He brought more than ten kilograms of pork, a sack of cabbage, a sack of radish, and fifty kilograms of flour to see how these people live in the New Year.
