Rebirth 1983: Starting From Taking Back the Family Property Chapter 76

Chapter 76 Timely rain

Sun Xun gathered people to gamble and stole things from the factory to sell. The news spread immediately. Soon someone went to the leader and said that such a scum must be fired from the factory.

Sun Xun's wife Liu Xiaoyue heard the news and fainted after confirming that it was true. When he woke up, he hugged and guarded his eldest son and cried bitterly. Sun Xun will be fired from the factory, then they can no longer live here. She got a hundred yuan from Sun Xun after making a fuss, but the expenses these days plus the illness of her younger son and daughter have already cost more than sixty yuan. I only have about thirty yuan left on hand, and I have to raise a child and now I have to rent a house, so it will be all spent soon. What will she and her children do when the money runs out?

The more she thought about it, the more desperate she became, and the louder she cried. Seeing her like this, several children couldn't help crying too.

While the family was crying, someone knocked on the door outside. Seeing the person coming, Liu Xiaoyue felt endless sadness in her heart.

 The visitor has a distant relative who is unable to have children and wants to adopt a child. Because the family conditions are good, the man has very high requirements for the children he adopts. To be smart and good-looking, he must be a boy. She searched for it for a long time but couldn't find it, and later she noticed Liu Xiaoyue's youngest son after hearing someone talk about it. I came here once before and was rejected. After hearing that Sun Xun was arrested, he quickly came to the door to avoid being overtaken by others.

 With the current situation at home, the child may starve to death if he follows him. But Liu Xiaoyue couldn't bear it for a moment, so she choked with sobs and said she would consider it.

The other party left happily.

In the evening, someone came over and told Liu Xiaoyue that the factory had decided to fire Sun Xun after a meeting. The expulsion notice will be posted in the morning, and the factory will definitely ask her to vacate her house by then so that she can make plans in advance.

Liu Xiaoyue is now taking it one step at a time, living day by day, what plans can she make. If she hadn't been reluctant to let go of her children, she would have tied the knot with a rope.

 After sending the person away, she sat on the stool in a daze. It wasn't until her little daughter's cry that she regained her energy, and then she got up to cook while wiping her tears.

 After dinner, the four older ones went to bed obediently, and the two younger ones had to be coaxed by her. When the children were asleep, she took out a handkerchief from the dowry box. Today I spent another five yuan on food, leaving only thirty-three yuan.

 With seven mouths in the family, this little money will last for a month at most. Do we really want to send Lao Wu and Lao Liu away? It's all the meat that fell from her body, how could she give it up!

As I thought about it, tears fell again.

 Elder son Sun Dong suddenly climbed out of bed, sat next to her, held her hand and said, "Mom, don't worry, I will make money with you to support my younger brothers and sisters."

Liu Xiaoyue hugged him. She didn't dare to cry out for fear of waking up the other children, so she could only shed tears silently.

 “Dong, dong, dong…”

At this moment, there was a knock on the door suddenly. Liu Xiaoyue wiped her tears and raised her voice and asked, "Who is it?"

 I knocked on the door so late, but I didn't know what was going on.

 There was no answer from the people outside, but the knocking on the door did not stop.

Sun Dong picked up the kitchen knife and walked to the door. The family lived in an abandoned utility room next to the warehouse, in a very remote location. Who would want to live in a place like this if there was no other choice?

Liu Xiaoyue is diligent and capable. She moved in, removed the debris from the house, and tidied up the outside. The same is true, those who are short of housing have their idea of ​​​​this house.

Liu Xiaoyue grabbed him and said, "Don't be afraid. If there is really a bad person, just shout loudly later, you know?"

No matter how remote it is, it is still in a factory. The factory has personnel on duty and patrols at night. As long as he shouted, someone would come soon.

"good."

What the mother and son didn't expect was that when the door opened, there was no one there, but there were two big bags at the door.

Sun Dong was surprised: "Mom, this..." Liu Xiaoyue responded quickly: "Stop talking, let's carry the things into the house."

After carrying two large bags of things into the house, Liu Xiaoyue quickly closed the door and locked it. After lighting the candle, Liu Xiaoyue began to untie the rope on the bag.

 There are two bags, one containing white flour and the other containing rice. There is also a small blue cloth bag in the rice bag.

 Seeing the white noodles and rice, Liu Xiaoyue's tears welled up again. She didn't know which kind person sent the food, but she couldn't bear to eat such good food, and planned to exchange it for coarse grains tomorrow. When the time comes, go to the market to pick up unwanted vegetable leaves or dig some wild vegetables outside. Together with the whole grains, you can eat them for two or three months.

Sun Dong opened the blue cloth bag. The top was a newspaper, and underneath the newspaper was the Great Unity. He shouted out loud: "Mom, Mom, look at it..."

Liu Xiaoyue was shocked when she saw so much money: "This, this..."

 The mother and son calmed down and counted, and found that there were 500 large unity sheets in total, which was 5,000 yuan. This is the first time Liu Xiaoyue has seen so much money in her life.

Sun Dong asked in a trembling voice: "Mom, with this money, can we not have to send away my brother and sister?"

 He knew that the family didn't have much money left, and when the little money left was spent, the family would have no food to eat. These days, many people came to inquire about his younger brothers and sisters. He was extremely reluctant to part with them, but he also understood that sending them away would be a way to survive if the family could no longer support them.

Liu Xiaoyue came back to her senses, clutched the money with both hands, and said softly: "Don't worry, mom won't send Xiao Wu and Xiao Liu away."

 With this money, she can raise six children.

Liu Xiaoyue picked up the newspaper and read it, but she couldn't read and handed it to Sun Dong: "What is written in this newspaper?"

Sun Dong dropped out of school in the fourth grade, but he still had no problem reading newspapers. Just seeing the title above, he was confused.

Liu Xiaoyue asked: "Dongzi, what is written in this newspaper?"

 It is said to be a newspaper, but it is actually an article cut out from a newspaper, with the title "Self-employed Zhang Hamei—Reform and Opening Up Gave Me Opportunities and Courage."

Sun Dong finished reading this article and looked at Liu Xiaoyue with a puzzled face: "Mom, what does "great benefactor" mean?"

After thinking for a while, Liu Xiaoyue wiped her tears and said, "The great benefactor is showing us the way to become self-employed."

 You must buy a house, and it must be a detached house. This can save a lot of trouble. After buying a house, I still have to find a job to make money. Just eating and drinking for six children every day is a big expense. I also have to send the children to school, so I can't just sit back and have nothing. She doesn't get much money to take care of the old lady, and her family always refuses to let her go home at night. I had no choice before, but now I definitely have to quit.

Sun Dong's eyes lit up: "Mom, the steamed buns you make are as delicious as the spicy soup. If you go out to set up a stall, you will definitely make money."

Liu Xiaoyue thinks she can give it a try. It doesn't cost much to set up a stall, so you don't have to worry about losing money. When the time comes, you can look for other options.

 Because of Lu Jiaxin's secret help, Liu Xiaoyue started to set up a stall more than two years in advance, and the third child did not die in infancy and was not given away.

It's too late to fix it, upload it first
