Bab 821: Chapter 0821: Letter from Tianjun 4

The simple, warm life continued until winter when Lu Jiang and Feng Qingxue received a letter from Lu Tianjun.

This year, the harvest in Wanglou Brigade wasn't too good, mainly because the yield of wheat and rice decreased by thirty percent. After delivering the government quota, there wasn't enough left to distribute among the households. Fortunately, most families were content with coarse grains, which they needed, not demanding fine grains, and the reduction in the yield of coarse grains such as sweet potatoes and corn was limited. As a result, the family only sent them fifty pounds of white flour, twenty pounds of rice, and a variety of dried vegetables from their private plot.

Lu's father made it clear that the white flour and rice were for the children to eat.

Towards Xibao and Fubao, the elderly grandfather was impartial, not refraining from sending fine grains to the children despite the reduced harvest.
