    It has always been easy for people to go from frugality to luxury, but it is difficult to go from luxury to frugality. In the past, there was no soap, and plant ash, honey locust pods, etc. were all the same. But since using soap, I can no longer use plant ash, Captain Qiao.  These days, his granddaughter has been bothering her a little bit, so these soap heads that Qiao Mu brought back can't be used for emergencies.

    Although the soap heads are scattered and small, the shape is not regular, and there are no patterns or anything, the advantage is that they are cheap and do not require soap tickets. They are the same thing anyway. What do rural people pay attention to? As long as they can be used.

    Moreover, the quantity of soap heads is limited, and only the workers in the soap factory have them. Even if they take the money to the county town, they will not find anyone to buy them, because people are careful and will not sell to strangers unless introduced by an acquaintance.  But Mrs. Qiao has many acquaintances, so people can buy them.

    That¡¯s the thing.

    ¡°I knew you wanted it!

    Don¡¯t worry, this time the soap factory has received a big new order, and the requirements are relatively high, so it produces a lot of soap heads. I brought back nearly ten kilograms this time, and I can give it to you in ten pieces or so.

    Here we are, everything is here. I have divided it all for you. There are four portions in total. The quantity is the same. You can choose one portion.  "

    As Qiao Mu was talking, her kitchen arrived. Oil, salt, sauce, vinegar and other sundries were divided into four parts and piled in the corner. No more, no less, just enough.

    ¡°That¡¯s a good relationship, so I¡¯ll thank you in advance!

    Hey, you four have seen it, the things are all there, you can sort them out for yourself, and don¡¯t pick and choose. Mrs. Qiao said that the things she bought are the same, they are definitely the same, there can¡¯t be more.  , or a little less, pick it up quickly.

    Oh, by the way, grandma, I have something to discuss with you. Look, aren¡¯t there two female educated youths here? Most families in our village have more than a dozen families living together. Even if there are rooms available for them,  When I came down, there were quite a few unmarried men living in those houses, and the two girls lived there, which gave them a bad reputation.

    so¡­¡­"

    Having said this, there is no need to continue. Anyone with a clear mind can understand what Captain Qiao meant.

    Qiao Mu is really not happy to let others live in her house, because it is not convenient. She lives alone. She can do whatever she wants. She can enter the farm space if she wants, and eat whatever she wants. As long as she is in the presence of others  When knocking on the door, she just needs to put away the inappropriate things in time. However, if others are allowed to live in her house, she will not be able to do things as freely as usual.

    It¡¯s not very convenient to eat, or even secretly subsidize your little son.

    "But it's not easy to refuse directly, because there is really no other suitable place for the two female educated youths to live in their village except hers. They can't let the two female educated youths live near the grain depot.

    Even if the two female educated youths did not dislike it, the villagers would not trust them to live next to the grain depot. It was not that they suspected that they would steal the food in the grain depot, but no matter how arrogant they were, no emperor would do so.  Let a person whom you have just met for two days guard his family's treasury. For farmers, the grain depot is equivalent to the emperor's treasury.

    In addition, Qiao Mu thinks that the two girls are pretty good-looking, and her younger son's eldest grandson's marriage has not yet been decided. If there is a possibility of staying, as the saying goes, those who are near the water and the towers get the moon first. Thinking of this, Qiao Mu  He immediately laughed and said:

    "No problem, I still have two empty rooms here, but one of them is still in use, so the two of them can only live in one room. If they are willing, they can move here now."

    "Yes, yes, we are willing!"

    "Compared to living in a family with seven or eight unmarried men, it was obviously better to stay with the widowed old lady, so the two female educated youths responded immediately without hesitation.

    "Since you're willing, I'll say it first. I'm used to living alone, and I'm not used to being disturbed by others. So except for the room where you live and the kitchen, don't go into other rooms if you have nothing to do. If you have anything to do, just speak loudly.  Just call me. Although I am old, I can still hear things. In addition, there is another point: everyone has their own use for things in the kitchen. If you want to burn firewood, go to the mountain to get it yourself.

    That¡¯s about it, and it doesn¡¯t require much.

    If you all agree, you can now move your things to the east bedroom. There is a bed in the bedroom, which is not small enough for you two little girls to sleep together.  "

    ??????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????

      Her request was not excessive, and could even be described as very loose. The two female educated youths had also rented houses at home, so they naturally knew how harsh some landlords were. Seeing that Qiao Mu only made such a request, they relaxed.  One breath.

    It¡¯s all right to say it.

    After that, it is natural to follow the usual procedures of dividing things, moving, dividing food and tidying up the house.

    During the process, Captain Qiao also took some time to take some food and exchanged it with Qiao Mu for about ten pieces of soap heads. These soap heads were very popular in their village. Even if they couldn't use them all at home, it would be a personal favor to give them to relatives and friends.

    It¡¯s a good deal.

    While Qiao Mu was helping the two little girls vacate the bedroom, he chatted with them for a while and got a general understanding of their situation. One of them was named Li Fang, and the other was named Li Fang.  There is Zhang Zhaodi, the second oldest child in the family, and the other is the eldest daughter in the family. Li Fang, the second oldest child, responded to the call from above and submitted her name some time before graduating from high school. Wait until her mother found out.  It was already too late, but luckily there was still enough time. Although she could not be eliminated from the list of people going to the countryside, she was also switched from the original list of supporting the northwest to the list of ordinary people who were sent to the countryside. The other Zhang Zhaodi was at home.  In order to compete for the lead, she was forced to come.

    Of course, the two of them would never say this when communicating with Qiao Mu. What Li Fang said was that her family was not active at all. She originally reported that she would support the Northwest, but her family secretly changed it for her. Now  She could only come here, and Zhang Zhaodi did not directly say that her family wanted her to come here in order to compete for the upper hand. Instead, she said that her father was going to be promoted from deputy director of the factory office to full director, and she, as the daughter of the leader, had to set an example.

    However, they are incomparable to Qiao Mu. Through their descriptions, Qiao Mu can easily discover the underlying reasons for each of them. It is obvious that Li Fang was raised to be a bit naive. The family obviously does good for her, but she does not know how to be grateful.  After she went back to work in the fields for two days, she knew that her mother was fine. Zhang Zhaodi had a deeper thought, but she didn't see any bad intentions at the moment. She could only be regarded as a little dissatisfied with her father.

    But no matter what, at least these two are not thorns in the side, and Qiao Mu is relieved.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
