    "It doesn't matter if you send him to school. If you don't have enough money, come and get it from me. I can still get the money for school. It's also good to graduate from elementary school!"

    It was only then that Qiao Mu thought that there were still about seven or eight years before the school was closed. If he went to school quickly, he might still have a chance to get a junior high school diploma.

    When classes are suspended in the future, junior high school graduates will have the opportunity to take the exam and enter the factory. Although the chance may be a little small due to the rural household registration, it is better than not having a junior high school diploma and not having the slightest chance. As long as you have the opportunity, find ways to be active.  , is always possible.

    ¡°Mom, how can I have the nerve to ask for your money!

    It¡¯s not like you don¡¯t know that the old Liu family used to be middle peasants, and their family has some financial resources. Moreover, going to school now is not expensive, much cheaper than going to a private school in the past, and paper and pens are much cheaper now than in the past. If you hadn¡¯t come here today,  Damn, I really didn¡¯t think about it. Children have to go to school.  "

    Qiao Hua quickly declined.

    The Liu family she married used to have a pretty good family background. They did some small business and accumulated a lot of funds. However, in 47 years, a batch of goods were robbed while doing business, which almost wiped out the entire family fortune. In the end  I had no choice but to sell almost all of my family's land, leaving only three to five acres, and then I could barely pay off the money I owed others.

    But it is precisely because of this that in the 1950s, they were not classified as rich peasant landlords, but were only classified as middle peasants. Middle peasants did not need to criticize and fight, and naturally they would not confiscate their homes. In addition, the Liu family was timid and promptly removed themselves  The remaining three acres of land have been handed over, so they still have a little inventory of things on hand, but what is left in their hands are basically the things at the bottom of the box, jewelry and gold, etc. These things are not easy to sell, so they  They don't dare to send them to the bank to change money. Moreover, even if they have money, they don't have the courage to go to the black market to exchange for food. That's why they seem relatively poor, but in fact they are still good compared to other families in the village.

    "Does the Liu family still have some wealth?"

    Qiao Mu also reacted and asked curiously.

    ¡°Yes, there is still a little bit left. We have been able to sustain ourselves with sweet potatoes during this period, but we are also worried that we will not be able to sustain it later, so we are thinking about whether we should take things to the black market to exchange for some food!

    I just don¡¯t know if gold can be exchanged.

    Mother, you also know that the circulation of gold is prohibited now. Gold cannot be used directly as money like in the past, and its value has depreciated greatly.

    So I really can¡¯t say for sure.

    But there was nothing I could do. My father-in-law was worried about the depreciation of silver dollars at that time, so he exchanged all the remaining silver dollars at home for gold. Who would have known that gold is no longer allowed to be used, and you have to go to the bank to exchange it for money before you can use it.  , but how dare we change? What if we change and are accidentally regarded as landlords and rich peasants?

    ??????????????? Oh, I have a terrible headache!  "

    Qiao Hua was a little worried when she said this. Although she still had more than a dozen taels of gold at home, she couldn't use that gold as food. Without food, she would starve to death if she only had gold. But the key now is that gold cannot be used as in the past.  You can use it as money when you go out, and you can't buy anything you want in the market like in the past.

    Very annoying.

    ¡°It¡¯s okay, if not, you can borrow it from me!

    "Otherwise, you can give me a few taels of gold, and I'll exchange it for you according to the bank price. Maybe you can even get a gold bracelet!"  "

    Qiao Mu said with a smile.

    She certainly didn't say this because she was coveting the few taels of gold in Qiao Hua's house. There were hundreds of cornucopias in her farm. Those cornucopias didn't count the gold and silver jewelry inside. The cornucopia itself weighed dozens of kilograms and was made of pure gold.  So there is no need to be greedy at all, I just want to help my daughter.

    It is indeed risky to exchange gold in banks these days. If you are not careful, you may be reported. After all, those families who still have gold stocks at home generally did not have a low social status more than ten years ago.  Capital means land, and the situation will inevitably be more difficult, so most people are not willing to send gold to the bank at all. They would rather lose some money in private and directly exchange gold with others for what they want.

    "Is thisis this okay?"

    Qiao Hua is also a little moved. She is indeed very timid. If she had not been forced to do so, she would not have thought of using gold to exchange for things on the black market. Now that her mother is willing to use the bank's price to recover the gold, how can she not be moved?

    ¡°It¡¯s okay, who made me your mother!

    But I don¡¯t have much money on hand. You can exchange it for one or two taels, which is enough for the time being. I can¡¯t take out more. I heard someone say some time ago that the current gold purchase price at the bank is  One hundred and seventy yuan a tael.

    We can also do this!But the most I can collect for you is two taels of gold. In fact, you can exchange one tael for it. One hundred and seventy yuan will be enough for you to use for a while!  "

    Of course Qiao Mu couldn¡¯t afford to replace it, but she had to consider not only her daughter¡¯s sake and letting her daughter keep some gold to maintain its value, but also whether it was reasonable for her to spend so much money.  More than three hundred yuan can barely be said to be half a year's royalties, but if more than three thousand yuan is spent, this is outrageous.

    ¡°Mom, are you serious?

    ????????? Do you really have that much money in your hand?  "

    Qiao Hua¡¯s eyes widened with surprise. At that moment, she really didn¡¯t believe that her mother had money that could be exchanged for one tael of gold.

    "of course it's true!

    You wait, I will show it to you!  "

    Qiao Mu rolled his eyes at her, and immediately turned around to block Qiao Hua's view. He pretended to take out more than twenty big unity sheets from under the quilt on the bed, but actually took out more than twenty big unity sheets from her penguin farm and shook them twice.

    "Look, this is it!"

    ¡°My mother, mother, you have really made a fortune, this cultural person is different!

    Mother, I want to change!

    But I don¡¯t have it with me now, so I¡¯ll go back and get a tael of gold!  "

    Until then, Qiao Hua truly believed that her mother really had money in exchange for gold. She was so excited that she quickly got up and went back to get the gold, as if she was afraid that Qiao Mu would regret it.

    ¡°What¡¯s the rush? You get the money back first.

    ?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? Just bring the gold to me later when you have time, there¡¯s no need to rush like this.¡±  "

    Qiao Mu's sense of the original girl was quite good, and in 1942, it was this girl who sent hundreds of kilograms of food to the original person, and then the original person distributed some to his two sons' families, which made them feel happy.  Everyone survived.

    It can be said that it was Qiao Hua who withstood the pressure from her mother-in-law, spent almost all her life, and finally bought several hundred kilograms of grain and saved their whole family. Because of this past incident, Qiao Mu  Even if she doesn't believe anyone, she won't disbelieve her daughter.

    While speaking, Qiao Mu had already counted seventeen cards from the stack of unity cards he had just taken out, and handed them to Qiao Hua quickly and neatly.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
