Yang Xiaole watched as his parents discussed selling this ticket and that ticket.
After some thought, he said, "Mom, let's keep the tickets. We've come all the way to the city, and it's not worth it to sell them. We can't get these things easily on a regular basis, so we should find a way to buy and exchange them. Now that we have them, it's not worth selling them. We're all still growing, and look, besides me, how many tall people are there in our family?"
In fact, Yang Guangzhi was about 1.8 meters tall, and his mother Wang Qiuju was also very tall at 165 centimeters.
However, due to poor nutrition, the eldest brother was only 175 centimeters tall at most.
With some supplements, there was still a chance to grow taller.
During this time, it seemed that he had grown quite a bit.
Hearing his words, Wang Qiuju hesitated and looked at Yang Guangzhi.
What Yang Xiaole said was indeed true.
After thinking for a moment, Yang Guangzhi said, "Sugar is 1.9 yuan per pound, and meat is 8.2 yuan per pound. It's too expensive to just have tickets. We'll have to spend money! It's all too expensive."
But after looking at the children at home, he sighed and said, "Alright, let's keep them. Otherwise, we'll be watching everyone in the courtyard eat every day, and that's not a good situation."
Everyone was happy to hear this.
Yang Xiaole also breathed a sigh of relief.
There was no way around it. Borrowing money would leave future troubles, and even with money, they couldn't bear to spend it. They had to solve it as soon as possible.
Wang Qiuju nodded as she looked at him. "Yes, we need to keep up with our food. Look at how much Xiaole has grown recently."
The others nodded as well.
Yang Xiaole naturally knew the reason.
"Ying~~"
As they were talking, Xiaoli woke up groggily and saw so many people in the room.
After seeing clearly, she was overjoyed. "Dad, brother~~"
Yang Guangzhi smiled and nodded. "Yes, go back to sleep for a while! It's still early!"
"Oh!"
Xiaoli responded lightly and then lay down, but she didn't fall asleep, she just looked at the people.
The people sat there chatting about the courtyard and the situation in the countryside.
When Wang Qiuju mentioned the house, she sighed. "Our family and the teacher's family across the street are the only ones renting in the courtyard. The rest are all houses allocated by the unit. We still have to pay so much rent every month!"
Yang Xiaole seemed to be indifferent.
Then they talked about Yang Guangping's family.
Hearing that the other family had all come to the city, Wang Qiuju also looked envious. "It seems that Yang Guangping, your cousin, is also a big leader in the city!"
After saying that, she looked at Yang Xiaole, who was smiling, and asked strangely, "What are you laughing at?"
Yang Xiaole shook his head. "Oh, nothing, just thinking about something."
Wang Qiuju thought of something and asked the others, "I'll get some food. You guys go to bed and rest for a while. Xiaole, you and Xi Zi go sleep at your older brother's place."
Yang Xiaole wanted to go out, but he couldn't get away.
In the end, he ran to the bed and lay down to sleep.
When he woke up, it was already bright outside.
The courtyard was bustling, very lively.
Because today was Sunday, many people didn't have to work, and the children didn't have to go to school.
In the courtyard, people were doing laundry and children were playing, making it very lively.
After all, this place was home to about a hundred people. How could it not be lively?
After getting up and brushing his teeth, Wang Qiuju had already prepared corn porridge and was waiting for the family to eat.
When the people in the courtyard saw so many people coming to the house, they chatted with Wang Qiuju in the courtyard.
"Qiuju, have your family come over?"
"Yes, the head of the family brought the children to see me and the eldest son."

"That's nice!"
…
Wang Qiuju brought the food in and a group of people ate.
On the table were pickled vegetables, pickled cucumbers, and radishes.
As they ate, Wang Qiuju said quietly, "I'll go to the vegetable market later and buy some vegetables. Let's have lunch at home. Do you want to come?"
After saying that, she instructed Yang Xiaogang, "Later, you go and buy the food coupons at home. There should be fewer people today than the past few days."
The eldest brother agreed.
Seeing Yang Guangzhi's puzzled expression, she smiled and said, "Do you know which day of the month is the busiest here?"
Before the others could answer, she said with a smile, "It's the 3rd when we get paid and the 25th when we collect next month's tickets. It's the busiest time, with people lining up everywhere to buy things. We couldn't even line up when we were working. Today we're off, so I'll go buy the food coupons and oil."
Yang Guangzhi nodded gently.
He was still wondering why the food coupons had been issued but they hadn't bought any food yet!
He could only relax when he had them in his hands!
After eating, washing the bowls, the family went out of the house.
The crowd on the road also started to get lively.
It was more than 3 kilometers away, so it wasn't too close to walk. It took more than 20 minutes to get to the vegetable market.Walking on the road, several people were looking around.
"Huh!"
Yang Xiaole saw a dark-skinned man, who was walking with a simple and honest look, entering a nearby brocade factory.
Seeing the other party, he hesitated for a moment.
Wang Qingsong?
He had been in the village for more than ten years. Although the other party was now dressed as a worker, he could still recognize him.
Strange, what is he doing here?
The day before yesterday, he said there was news over there, asking him to go to Langfang to pick up his daughter-in-law and child.
Why did he come here to work?
Watching the other party enter a large building of the brocade factory, he thought for a moment and said to Wang Qiuju, "Mom, you take them, Dad, you come over, I have something to tell you."
Wang Qingsong must have a problem.
If the other party used to be a bald person, it would be fine to live a good life after retiring.
But judging from the current situation, it seemed that something was not right.
Working in the countryside, you must go through the village and then to the commune. It's impossible for someone with no news to come to the city to work as a laborer.
How could there be no problem!
Another reason is October 1st.
It was almost October 1st, a special day of national celebration, a big day when the common people were in charge.
In his previous life, he didn't feel much about it.
But in this life, he had heard a lot about catching spies.
All these things connected together, and he felt that something big was happening.
Yang Guangzhi was puzzled, "What's wrong?"
Yang Xiaole looked around with a serious face and said, "I just saw Uncle Qingsong, he just entered the brocade factory."
"Qingsong? Are you sure you didn't see it wrong? Didn't he go to pick up his wife and child? Why would he come here?"
"It shouldn't be wrong. But I still need to confirm."
Wang Qiuju also felt strange, "Are you sure? Where?"
"Just entered the brocade factory!"
The reason why Yang Xiaole told his family was that he felt that this was a big achievement, no matter who it was for, it would be beneficial.
If the other party had really turned over a new leaf, he wouldn't just sit around and do nothing to expose the other party.
But causing trouble was not okay!
The nature of the matter was different.
The two looked at each other, feeling hesitant, afraid that their son had made a mistake.
Because he didn't see the person just now, he didn't know if what Yang Xiaole said was true or false. If it was true, then it would be a big deal!
The most important things nowadays were to produce and catch bad people.
Seeing this, Yang Xiaole looked around and realized that Wang Qingsong had solved the city's job problem so easily, indicating that he was very capable.
Thinking of this, he said to Yang Guangzhi, "Dad, you go busy, I'll keep an eye on him here and confirm if it's him."
Yang Guangzhi shook his head, "No, it's too dangerous. You go first, I'll keep an eye on him here."
Yang Xiaole thought for a moment and felt that it was not okay.
If the other party was not alone, it would be endless trouble if he was exposed.
Meritorious service came with a price.
Thinking of this, he looked around and said, "Okay, you go to the nearby police station, explain the situation, and call a few police officers over."
Upon hearing this, Yang Guangzhi thought for a moment and agreed.
This kind of thing should be handled by professionals.
Yang Xiaole watched Yang Guangzhi look around blankly.
He knew that he didn't know where he was, so he reminded him.
Pointing to the street they had just walked past, he said, "That way, not far ahead, we just walked past it, did you forget?"
"Oh!"
Seeing this, Yang Guangzhi hurriedly walked towards the front.
Seeing Dad leave, Yang Xiaole looked at the bewildered people and looked around.
He said, "Mom, you go to the opposite side, that consignment store, wait for us there. It's not good for you to stay here. What if someone comes out and sees you? Big brother, you take them to the opposite side, or you can go to the vegetable market to buy vegetables."
At this time, Wang Qiuju had no mood to buy vegetables!
She hurriedly took the child to the consignment store on the opposite side.
Seeing this, Yang Xiaole looked around and hid. He couldn't let the other party see him.
After waiting for a few minutes, Yang Guangzhi hurriedly arrived with three people.
"It's you!"
"Ah, it's you!"
The leader of the group was surprised to see Yang Xiaole, and Yang Xiaole was equally surprised.
The other party was the leader who had caught Director Hao last time.
It seemed that his surname was Ye, but he forgot his full name.
Ye Shutian looked at the brocade factory and asked him, "I said I was looking for you last time, but I couldn't find you. Did you run into bad people again this time?"
"Again? What do you mean?"
Yang Xiaole was puzzled for a moment, then asked strangely, "Weren't you in the east? How did you come here?"
"This is our substation!"
The person next to him spoke up.Ye Shu Tian smiled and said, "I have to thank you for your good fortune! Last time, we really did catch a lead. I can't discuss the specifics, but now I've been transferred to this street as the deputy director."
"Oh, congratulations then!"
Yang Xiaole was puzzled. Could it be that Director Hao was also compromised?
Hearing his words, Ye Shu Tian didn't say much, but asked him, "What's the situation? Repeat it, your dad wasn't very clear."
Seeing this, Yang Xiaole recounted the situation.
