After hearing Li Xingxing's words, including Du Yanran, the Du family expressed disbelief.

"A basket of sweet potatoes can be exchanged for a wife?" Mrs. Du said in a lost voice.

She was born to be pampered and never saw a city life.

Li Xiuhong nodded and said, "Although a basket of sweet potatoes is small, it is life-saving food. The land of our brigade belongs to the mountainous land, with high yields of sweet potatoes, and filling the stomach is not a problem. Last year, harvested in advance during the autumn harvest, and our brigade suffered little losses. Instead, because of sufficient rain, a batch of wheat was planted, and the winter color was green. This spring looked good. I would definitely get a bumper harvest in summer. Life was much better than the surroundings, so even if I didn't give a betrothal gift, the girls from all over the country were willing to marry into our brigade."

After saying that, he turned his head and smiled: "We live a much better life than before. When I was a child, I was in danger of danger. There were foreign enemies invasion and sweeping, and bandits were rampant. I lived in fear every day. Caves, cellars, and tunnels were dug and dug, just to hide. The people in our village were grateful to the wise leadership of the country, ending the war and leading the people to live a good life."

Li Xingxing was shocked.

Life was so hard in the 1960s and 1970s, and the villagers of Dalizi Village actually felt that it was good?

Her mother is not short of money, food, and clothing now. She can eat chicken, fish, meat and eggs every now and then. It is understandable to say that she lives a good life, but those skeleton people in Dalizi Village?

How hard did their days before? Was they soaked in Coptis chinensis water?

Surely so!

Du Yanran smiled and said, "Mom, Nianen and I voluntarily support the border. Although we don't know where we will be sent, we will write to our home immediately after arriving at the destination to inform us of our address. If we can't have enough food in the border, we will write to you and send us a few sacks of sweet potatoes produced in our Dalizi Village."

Eating sweet potatoes when people come to your family is also a way to hide poverty.

In private, they naturally eat whatever they want. They can’t treat their bodies badly. They would rather wear a little tatter than lack nutrition.

Health is the most important thing, and everything else is a trivial matter.

How could Li Xiuhong not understand what Du Yanran meant? He hurriedly said: "What do you need? Even if you write a letter, I will send you what I can get to you! Fresh sweet potatoes are not resistant to transportation. I will dry them into dried sweet potatoes and grind them into sweet potato noodles. In addition, I will find a way to get you some fine grains and eat them together."

Li Xingxing quickly raised his hand: "I'm there, and I'm there, I can help you too!"

In terms of materials, she is the richest child!

Money is not as good as them, and can the piles of rice, flour, and meat not crush them?

Xia Mingxing pulled Li Xingxing's little hand down, "Eat your food by your dear, don't interrupt if you speak, aren't you sure where to support me? Let's consider their needs after confirming."

"The star is right." Chen Xiangyang said.

Li Xingxing couldn't help but ask, "Dad, have you not decided on a good place? There are only some places, including the three northeastern provinces, the northwest border, the northern grassland and southwest, islands, etc."

"It's settled." Chen Xiangyang said.

"Where is this?" everyone asked in unison.

Chen Nianen and Du Yanran were particularly concerned. Only after they settled down would they prepare to take the supplies they had not yet.

Chen Xiangyang took a piece of braised pork and put it in Li Xiuhong's bowl, and said, "Bei Dahuang. In early April, a group of revolutionary cadres went to the Beidahuang. You can follow them. In the early stage, many officers and soldiers and young people from the border went there, and some settled down there. Xiao Du could continue teaching there. He had no choice in his background and had a choice of path. I hope you can do it well."
