But what can she do? It's not the day to go to the city yet, and she can't disrupt the rhythm of her life because of her.

I could only silently take out a plate and peel the pomegranate for her. In the meantime, she came out to take a look and warned her.

"Don't peel too much, I won't be able to eat it. Just half of it will be fine."

Her voice no longer had the awkwardness and harshness it once had, and became as kind as an ordinary old lady. Even she was a little flattered by this change.

The old lady didn't eat much at night. She only had four or five dumplings, drank half a bowl of soup, and ate a handful of pomegranates. Then he handed her a bag of clothes.

"This belongs to my granddaughter. If you don't mind it, take it away. I think I'm about the same size as you, maybe a little bigger. If it doesn't work, I'll wear it next year."

Ding Wei looked at the military green travel bag with the word "Magic City" on it in surprise. She quickly took it and opened it. She saw that the clothes were clean and tidy and the colors were nice.

"Thank you grandma, I like it very much!"

"As long as you like it, as long as you don't dislike it from now on, I will give it to you."

"No, no need, that's enough. I really don't need it."

"Don't worry about it. After all, it's just a favor for them to give to others. Why not give my old lady some favor?"

The old lady muttered that Ding Wei had a good ear and heard things really well. It seemed that what Grandma Lei said was true. She was indeed testing her children.

"You go back. It's been a hard day. I'm going to go for a walk to refresh myself."

As a result, Ding Wei insisted on supporting her and going for a walk together. As soon as they went out, they couldn't help but ask questions when they met people from the same unit or who were curious about their relationship.

The old lady didn't speak from the beginning to the end. When no one was around, she snorted coldly: "They are a bunch of snobs, just ignore them."

Ding Wei sighed in her heart. She couldn't blame the old lady for speaking harshly. Maybe it was because she was hurt too deeply?

She didn't know how they came back to the city. It must be related, otherwise it wouldn't be so early. Usually they are in the late 1970s, and some even reach the 80s or 90s, but those who can survive until then

, too few. If you are in good health, it will be fine. If you are in poor health, you will die in a foreign land!

On Sunday morning, Ding Wei ate delicious dumplings stuffed with shepherd's purse and egg. Her father happened to come over to deliver tofu, so he also had a meal of dumplings.

The old lady was very happy that the father and daughter came to share the meal, and kept adding soup and dumplings to them during the period. The father refused repeatedly, and as a result, he was so full that he could hardly walk, which made Ding Wei laugh so hard.

In order to express his gratitude, the father urged her to go to work, and then he stayed to help the old lady turn over the open space in front of the door, level it, and sweep aside the weeds and stones. City people

Don't use farmyard manure, it will affect others, but my father shook his head when he looked at this place.

"This land is no good. You can't grow anything. You see, the trees are blocking the sunlight. If the land is not fertile enough, even if you plant something, it will be eaten by insects."

Grandma Wang poured water for Dad: "You are right. I have been growing vegetables every year, and the harvest has been dismal. I have also managed to get rid of the bugs, and there is no way to cure them. It is better here next to the house.

, nothing under the tree can grow. Fortunately, I can’t eat much by myself, so I just plant some onions, garlic, greens, leeks and so on.”

"Then you will continue to plant whatever you planted in previous years. When we come back, we will bring you some vegetables. We can't finish the vegetables grown in the private plot at home. I have to go to work every day. I will bring you some when I pass by here. They are grown in the farmland.

After all, you are better than the one here, and you are good-looking. You are so kind to Weiwei, so as parents, we should also take more care of you."

The old lady did not refuse, because she wanted someone to come see her. She was too lonely, but fortunately the Ding family was nice, with a good family tradition, their children were sensible, and this junior was also very capable. She acquiesced to their politeness, but in her heart

In front of her, she loved Ding Wei as if she were her own granddaughter.

Ding Zhenlong left after finishing his work and did not stay for lunch. He was not very hungry after eating too much at noon. He also brought a few pancakes with him in the morning. He just took a few bites and drank some water to deal with it. After that, he went to the factory to play ball with his coworkers.

, playing chess, the afternoon passed quickly.

When Ding Wei got off work, Ding Zhenlong had been chatting with the old man at the door of the radio station for about ten minutes. When he saw her coming out, the old man smiled and urged them to leave quickly.

"Did you see it? It's cloudy and it's going to rain soon. Go back quickly and don't delay."

Since I had already said goodbye to Mrs. Wang in the morning, there was no need to make a special trip in the afternoon. Ding Wei got on her bicycle and said quickly when she saw the eggs Ding Zhenlong bought.

"Dad, aren't our chickens laying eggs? Why do we still buy so many eggs?"

"Our eggs are only enough for the few of you to eat at home. Your brother has to buy some separately at school. Our family is not short of these things now. You are all growing up and your nutrition is guaranteed. No one in our family is left behind. Every day

People eat an egg every day.”

"Or fifteen cents each?"

The prices on the black market are more expensive than those in the supply and marketing cooperatives. A dime a piece in the supply and marketing cooperatives is considered the most expensive price. The price for ordinary people to send it is only seven or eight cents.
