Chapter 64: Walk Relatives
After eating, several families sat together and chatted.
Jiang Sikui took Jiang Erhe outside to smoke and go to the toilet, and the two men stood under the tree at the gate of the courtyard, smoking and chatting.
Jiang Sikui looked around and whispered: "Second brother, the pork from the previous year was really good, fortunately, the second brother gave me some evenness, otherwise I wouldn't be able to make up the gifts this year." ”
Jiang Erhe knew that the fourth brother deliberately said that he was exaggerating, he was the director of a county supply and marketing cooperative, and the New Year's gifts were not in order, isn't this nonsense, but it is not as affordable as giving meat this year.
During the Chinese New Year, whether you eat it yourself at home or entertain guests, the big fat slices are the most face-saving!
Especially the meat that the second brother got is really rare, the meat is pink, the fat is white and thick, even if he has a relationship in the county, it is rare to buy such good meat, most of this good meat is sent to the canteens of the county party committee and some large factories.
Listening to the eldest brother's meaning, the second brother got a lot of meat this time, so Jiang Sikui asked with the attitude of giving it a try.
Jiang Erhe was more realistic to his brothers, so he said: "That meat was brought by a friend introduced by Lao Chen, that is, people don't sell half a pig, they take the whole head if they want it, they don't go into the water and head and feet, and they get three hundred catties down. ”
This is not what Jiang Momo said, it was Jiang Erhe who came up with it himself, and set a standard at the beginning, the price and demand are two catties, if it is not enough, don't open that mouth, the province has to find someone for dozens of catties of meat, and it is troublesome not to say that it owes people.
Jiang Sikui was stunned when he heard it, he didn't expect the second brother to have such a powerful relationship, a mouth is a 300-pound pig to start, it seems that the other party is very big, let's not talk about anything else, it's hard to imagine that this pig can have 300 catties when it comes out, the other party's breeding technology, and where to breed.
It's just that Jiang Sikui just thought about it casually, so he discussed with his second brother about buying pigs.
No matter how many pigs go out of them, the whole head is counted with bones, and it is worth eight cents. This is a dead end, it can't be cheap, it's too expensive.
Jiang Sikui felt that it was not expensive at all, and the supply and marketing cooperatives in their county bought an imported freezer at the beginning of last year, and if it was cut and placed, it would be no problem to store the meat of two pigs, so he discussed with his second brother whether he could supply them with two pigs every month.
Jiang Erhe didn't agree directly, saying that he was talking to his friends to see how people arranged, Jiang Sikui's happy eyes narrowed together, and he hurriedly handed the second brother another cigarette, the second brother at home is the most realistic, and it is good for their brothers, but sometimes it is too much, and it is honestly distressing.
In fact, my father and mother are still partial to the eldest brother, he as the fourth child sees it clearly, on the second child's single-minded filial piety to the two elders, he has long seen it, the old man is almost on the line, or live his little life first, the second brother here, he helps the most, but where the second sister-in-law went to the supply and marketing cooperative, that time he was enthusiastic to entertain, and left things, not that the brothers said by his father and mother were united, he just felt sorry for his second brother, and they usually took care of the elderly, and he should repay them all.
After eating at the second child's house, the third and fourth children packed up their things and hurried back to the county, and Jiang Dashan, as the eldest brother, borrowed the donkey cart in the team to send them back in person.
Yao Huazhi put the remaining mutton soup and a dozen pieces of mutton in a clay pot, and took it with him when he went to his mother's house on the second day of the Lunar New Year.
Early the next morning, the family packed up and went to the township with a small bag.
On the second day of the Lunar New Year, I went back to my parents' house, and I met many adults and children walking on the road along the way, but fortunately, the New Year has warmed up in the past few days, and the weather is not cold.
Jiang Erhe smiled and said to Yao Huazhi: "Now life is better than in previous years, at least we can eat enough, and our Zhuang people can be happy when they are full." ”
Yao's third aunt is a difficult birth, and a cesarean section, hurting the root, this month is forty days, the first 20 days have not been able to get out of bed, the second day of the new year to go back to the mother's house is even more impossible, and the third aunt Yao is now angry and annoyed with her mother, but she is her own mother, I really don't know how to deal with it, I just don't go back, don't care, and then see how they get along in the future.
Although the baby daughter of Yao's third uncle was born prematurely, the child's physique is very good, the third aunt's milk is not enough to eat, so she drank goat milk and milk powder, and ate more than the average big boy in one meal.
Yao Huazhi has prepared New Year's clothes for her mother's father, and sent them early in the morning, and today she came to bring a pot of mutton, and brought a hare and a pound of brown sugar, and after dinner, she went to the eldest brother's house to sit down, and also brought brown sugar and a rabbit as a gift.
After eating, Jiang Momo sat on the kang in the west house of Uncle Yao's house and teased the sugar candy that woke up, this name is still the name of Uncle Yao's third uncle who rode to Jiang Momo's house three days after the child, and asked Jiang Momo to give it, saying that Jiang Momo is a blessing, and this child is also because she is wrapping it, so she gave Jiang Momo the right to name it.
It's just that Jiang Momo is a name waste, and after thinking about it for a long time, he said: "Forget about the big name, I'll give it a nickname, just call it Tangtang, I hope the little baby will be sweet and sweet in the future." ”
This name is too good, especially Jiang Momo's knowledge and interest are not famous, which makes Yao's third aunt very satisfied, after all, this is her first child with a man, she hurt her uterus, and said that she can't be the only one, naming is a lifelong thing, and it is also a memorial, so she still hopes to make them husband and wife.
So Tangtang has a big name, called Yao Tianci.
After Jiang Momo heard this, she resisted the urge to roll her eyes, what kind of broken name is this, it is better to let her call it, a good baby girl, why did she have such a name.
Even the grandfather and grandmother of the Yao family think that this name is not good, they are all sugar candy on weekdays, sugar candy is called, no one wants to call the big name, it is too awkward to call, but Yao's third aunt is not called sugar candy, she likes it and is God-given, every time sugar candy is dumbfounded, she looks confused, and she doesn't know who her mother is calling.
After going to my uncle's house, Third Uncle Yao walked behind with Jiang Momo on the road and talked about the last time.
With curiosity on his face: "Momo, can you really predict bad things?"
Jiang Momo nodded lazily and said, "Most of the time it is possible, but I don't know how long this ability can be maintained, maybe it will disappear in a few days." ”
With the passage of her soul, many things have changed in the Jiang family and the Yao family, and she really doesn't know how to predict what difficulties and disasters will be encountered next.
