Su Yan arrived in town and went to the post office.
First, he asked if there were any letters from her. The Su family had sent her several letters before, and her family had sent her money, but the original owner spent it lavishly and spent all the 200 yuan the Su family sent her in less than a year.
The reason why the Su family sent her so little money was because they knew her character. Too much money would easily show off her wealth and bring disaster upon herself.
So the amount of money she sent each time would not exceed fifty yuan. The letter had already explained that they were about to go to the Northwest for reconstruction, and it would be difficult to send her things in the future, so she had to use them sparingly.
The last letter was sent from the Northwest. There was no money in the letter. It just told her that if she had any problems, she could write to them, but they might not reply, and asked her to take care of herself.
As expected, there was no letter from her. Su Yan had guessed it. They were so busy taking care of themselves now that they had no time to take care of her who was far away in the Northeast.
Su Yan took out a letter, put it in the package she had packed earlier, and mailed it to the address that the Su family had given her before.
The package contained a lot of dried mountain mushrooms, as well as biscuits, cotton cloth, gloves, candles, cloth shoes, dried fruits, etc.
These are the things in Su Yan’s space. She doesn’t have money in this era, so she can only send some practical things to the Su family.
I don’t know if they can receive it, so Su Yan only took one or two kilograms, which added up to more than ten or twenty kilograms.
This was her way of showing filial piety on behalf of her original self. The Su family had already made arrangements and would have someone send her a hundred yuan on a regular basis every year.
However, after receiving the letter from them from the Northwest, the original body lost confidence in the Su family. He thought that he would never receive anything again, so he never came to the post office to inquire.
In fact, the Su family sent letters every year, but she didn't know about it and didn't receive it.
This was after my second brother hadn't heard from her for several years and took a special leave to come and see her. When he saw how poorly she was living, he mentioned that he had been sending her money over the years.
The Su family sent her money every year, but she didn't receive it. This means that either the person who commissioned the letter was unreliable and embezzled the money and never sent it, or someone else sent it but it was intercepted.
Since Second Brother Su could bring up this matter, it means that the person they entrusted should be very reliable and had done this. That only means that the letter was intercepted by someone.
Su Yan has some suspicions in his mind, but he can't be sure yet, so he puts it aside for the time being.
Su Yan informed the staff that any letter from her had to be signed by her in person and no one else could do it for her.
Only after the other party took note did Su Yan ride away on his bike.
Su Yan walked around the town several times, went to the supply and marketing cooperative to ask about the prices of supplies, found the location of the black market, and discovered that small vendors would go from street to street to sell things.
Su Yan transferred some things from the space into the large cloth bag she brought with her, and then rode her bicycle to the staff building near the steel plant.
Su Yan covered most of her face with a square scarf, and when she saw women going out carrying baskets or cloth bags, she would go up to them and ask if they wanted to buy anything.
I asked two people first. Others saw that she was carrying a child and pushing a bicycle. Although most of her face was covered, she didn't look like a bad person, so they stopped to see what she was selling.
Su Yan opened the cloth bag, which contained bacon, apples, and several pounds of dried mushrooms.
When the other party saw that there was bacon, he was overjoyed and asked her how much it cost per pound.
The price of bacon was 90 cents per pound. Su Yan said he had already weighed it. He sold one piece of bacon for 2.7 yuan and another piece for 3.8 yuan.
As for mushrooms, they were a little cheaper, but half a bag still cost four dollars.
Apples were sold individually. She had already calculated that three apples were roughly equal to one pound, and one pound of apples cost 70 cents.
So she just sold them for 20 cents each and wasn't bothered to weigh them.
More than ten apples were sold out quickly, and I made a profit of two dollars and eighty cents.
In just over ten minutes outside the steel plant's staff building, her goods were sold out.
I made a total of thirteen dollars and thirty cents.
Su Yan went to the supply and marketing cooperative and bought some egg cakes, which were the specialties of that era, and also bought some flour, corn flour and other corn flour to take back.
She took out two rolls of cotton cloth, fifty eggs, and some noodles from the space.
Then there were the soaps and soaps, which were also taken out and repackaged.
The soaps of this era were all wrapped in butter paper, a packaging so simple that Su Yan could forge it himself.
The most important thing was to forge a letter from the Su family, otherwise it would be difficult for her to explain where the money came from.
Su Yan imitated the handwriting of the previous letters and wrote a letter of concern to herself in the tone of the eldest brother of the Su family. He also specifically instructed her to spend the twenty yuan in the letter sparingly, as they didn't know when they would send her a letter next time.
In short, as long as the money has a source, the content of the letter can be copied from the previous two times.
Sure enough, when Su Yan rode his bike home with a dragon's worth of things, everyone in the Zhu family was shocked.
Of course, what they are most concerned about is where did these things come from?
Su Yan took out the letter and deliberately showed off: "My brother and his friends sent it to me. I knew they wouldn't forget me. I went to ask them today and sure enough, there was a letter from me. They sent me twenty dollars."
The Zhu family members stared at the letter in her hand eagerly, wanting to know its contents. Su Yan deliberately stood next to Zhu Zhen and read the letter.
Zhu Zhen was a high school student in the family and naturally knew how to read. She instinctively looked at the letter.
Zhu Bin and Zhu Xile are also literate. They both attended junior high school. However, because Zhu's father broke his leg a few years ago and was unable to work in the fields for a period of time and the family burden was heavy, the two dropped out of school and went to the fields to earn work points.
When the Zhu family learned that these things were bought with the money that the Su family sent to Su Yan, they were also happy.
Su Yan was very generous, taking things out of his pocket one by one: "I bought these for my family, and there's also soap. This one I use, and this one is for you."
In this era, a bar of soap is used by the whole family and is not used separately.
Su Yan wanted to use a bar of soap by herself, and no one had any objection. After all, it was her money that bought it, so she could use it alone. They all knew that she was a pretentious person, had a bit of a spoiled girl's temper, had no concept of money, and was usually lavish.
It can be seen from the noodles, flour, corn flour and egg cakes she bought today that she is not a stingy person.
Otherwise, he wouldn't have taken it out in front of everyone. He would have taken it to his room and eaten it secretly by himself.
Su Yan took out the eggs and said generously, "Yang Dan, use these eggs to make egg custard for the children every day. Look how thin our children have become."
Yang Dan was about to say yes with a smile, but heard a cold snort from the side.
Mother Zhu couldn't help but mutter, "You spend your money recklessly when you have it, and don't know how to save it and take it out when you need it urgently. You are such a spendthrift woman."
Su Yan said angrily: "Mom, you scold me for improving everyone's life. You also scold me for not doing anything. You just don't like me."
Zhu's mother: "You spend lavishly when you have money, but I wonder what you will do when you have no money."
Su Yan smiled confidently and said, "My brother and the others will send me more. Just wait and see. Something happened to them before and they didn't take care of me, but now they have recovered and will definitely send me more in the future."
Su Yan also took out two pieces of bacon from the cloth bag, and the Zhu family members stared in amazement.
Su Yan handed it to Zhu's mother with a smile, and said with a victorious attitude: "Look, my brother also sent me meat. They love me as their sister the most."
For a moment, the Zhu family looked at Su Yan with envy. She really had a good brother. If it was true as she said, that her brother would send her things in the future, that would be great.
They should enjoy the good life too.
However, Zhu's mother quickly calmed down and ordered: "Don't tell anyone about Su Yan's eldest brother sending her something, so as not to arouse jealousy. Just keep it to your family members. In this situation, you have to keep a low profile, understand?"
Yang Dan: "But mother, when my sister-in-law came back, many people saw something on the handlebars of her car. How do we explain it?"
Mother Zhu: "Just say that I asked her to buy needles, thread, rags and other things. Although there are a lot of things, they are actually worthless."
Yang Dan: “Oh.”
Seeing that everyone was staring at the egg cake, as if they had never eaten anything delicious in their lives, Zhu's mother said, "Everyone should have half, and the rest can be left for the children."
Su Yan hadn't originally intended to keep it all for herself, and what Zhu's mother said was exactly what she wanted.
She had previously created a silly and generous persona for herself just to improve the food for the children in this family.
Daya and the others are very sensible. They know that the original body usually treats Xiaobao badly, so they secretly take care of Xiaobao and feed him corn porridge.
Otherwise, Xiaobao would have had problems with hunger long ago.
