Chapter 1798: Times Have Changed (Part 9)
Speaking of this matter, Wang Zhenguo had more to say, "Can you compare yourself to your aunt?"
"No comparison!" Guan Yu blurted out. Even someone as powerful as Lu Jiang couldn’t compare to Feng Qingxue. Her contribution and popularity in the Wanglou Brigade were much better than others, second only to Xibao. She personally delivered many children in the neighboring villages, and the names of the children were related to her.
After Feng Qingxue left, Dr. Li Li, who took over the Wanglou Brigade health clinic, worked tirelessly for so many years, yet in people’s hearts, she couldn’t surpass Feng Qingxue.
"So that’s settled." Wang Zhenguo softened his expression, "Each household should take the share they are entitled to based on the number of people. Don’t go overboard buying a bunch of chicken, duck, fish, and eggs. Rest assured, I’ve discussed with the production team leaders, every child will have their share. The money will either be deducted from your family’s work points or you can pay for it yourselves, this way it won’t be conspicuous, and no one will say anything, especially since you all live at home. I know you’re used to a good life, and what’s distributed to you won’t last long, but aren’t there your monthly provisions? Plus, you and Tianzhi often go to the city, it wouldn’t be noticed if you bring back some good dishes from the state-owned restaurant."
Lu’s father had been silent until now, showing a smile, "Ayu, listen to your grand-uncle. Your aunt sent us a lot of New Year’s goods, and your uncle’s comrade sent cured meat and game, enough for us to celebrate the New Year."
Guan Yu acknowledged with a sound, fully understanding the elders’ foresight, and could only sigh at the thought of the old hens and ducks.
Lu’s father turned to Wang Zhenguo and said, "Forget the rest, we’ll buy an old goose then, to stew a big pot. It’s rare in the army compound, and apart from Xibao, the kids probably haven’t tasted it."
"Never had it before, is it tasty?" Lu Erxiong asked.
Xibao chuckled, "You’ll know if it’s good or not once you eat it. Asking us now won’t give you any description."
At this, not only Lu Erxiong but the other kids also gulped down a mouthful of saliva.
