Just like Jia Gen, if she doesn't have enough milk, she just asks someone to buy milk powder.

But this milk powder is not cheap. I almost lost all my money last time, so I won’t buy any milk powder this time.

Besides, according to Jia Zhang's words, if you give birth to a loser, what kind of milk powder should you drink?

Even Qin Huairu, a pregnant woman, no longer receives preferential treatment. Not only does she have no one to take care of her, but her food is also two levels behind.

I had a lot of food last time, but now I just have a full stomach.

Qin Huairu was unable to fight on the sidelines. She was not the one making money in the family, and she was not the one in charge of the money.

Just like an outsider who lives under someone else's roof, he has no right to speak in this family.

In this way, until the new year, Qin Huairu was born early, and her body had not recovered yet, but if she didn't get up to take care of her daughter, the child would really starve to death.

Jia Dongxu didn't care about his daughter, and Jia Zhang didn't even give Jia Dang food, so she had to do it herself.

It was only then that the courtyard stopped.

Everyone also began to prepare for the New Year.

It's just that this year, it's a bit sad.

Compared with usual, the New Year atmosphere is a bit lighter, and the sound of firecrackers in the alleys is also much sparser.

Materials are even more scarce, and many families are ready to be poor.

In the courtyard, Shazhu didn't go out anymore. In the past, this was the time to welcome a daughter-in-law. Who wouldn't be allowed to set up two tables for such a happy event?

But now, there are fewer people getting married and not many people setting tables.

Even if the men in Sijiucheng are good-looking, they should take care of things at home, so forget about hiring someone to cook the banquet.

As a result, this year's foreign money has been reduced by more than half, and this year has been difficult.

The third uncle, who is very careful about money, took his fishing rod and walked to the West Sea as soon as school was over. Recently, more and more people were fishing, and if he went there late, he would not be able to find a place.

Yang Xiaotao has also been there several times. The more people fisher, the less fish are caught.

Of course, this does not include Yang Xiaotao.

With the golden fishing rod, level 4 fishing skills, and the existence of the elf Xiaowei, you can always come back with a full load.

Fish were also hung on the eaves of the house.

The lessons learned from last time, coupled with the care of wealth, have dispelled many people's greed.

Especially Jia and Zhang, every time they see some fish, they feel itchy and their eyes are full of lust.

I wish I could take them all home and have a big meal.

Unfortunately, the appearance of Wangcai cut off all her thoughts.

As a result, Mrs. Jia Zhang looked at Yang Xiaotao with even more resentment.

Yang Xiaotao felt comfortable about this. He just likes this way of showing off in front of you, but you can't do anything about it.

So every time when cooking, I would show off to Jia Zhang who was sitting at the door, and then walk into the house carrying the fish, and heard Jia Zhang's angry curses behind me.

Just after the Lunar New Year, the weather became colder and colder, and it was cloudy for several days in a row. It seemed as if the ice and snow above our heads would fall at any time, but it was always lingering.

As the New Year is approaching and there are no important tasks, the steel rolling mill will take the holidays early to let the workers go home, which can also be regarded as reducing the pressure on logistics.

Of course, annual wages were paid before the holidays, so that the workers in the steel rolling mill could have money in their pockets.

Yang Xiaotao got off the bus wearing warm clothes, a sweater, and an 80% new military coat, a cotton hat, and gloves. He was carrying a backpack in his hand, which he borrowed from the library.

A stack of books.

He did not return to Yangjiazhuang during the Chinese New Year this year. Under the current circumstances, returning would be causing trouble to the villagers.

However, although the person did not go back, there was no shortage of gifts.

The last time Yang Shitou came to the city for business, Yang Xiaotao loaded the prepared New Year goods into the car. As for how to distribute them, it was up to Mr. Yang.

Of course, those things made the people in the courtyard jealous for a while.

Especially for the Jia family, Jia and Zhang were as talkative as ever, and the third aunt was filled with envy.

As for Qin Huairu, she stood in the yard for a long time. Only when she was far away did she bend down and continue washing clothes.

The water in winter was cold, and her heart was as numb as her fingers.
