Chapter 35: Buying Meat
It doesn't matter if people look dark, the mother-in-law and sister-in-law who are not easy to get along with talked about Ou Hongying's heart, thinking of her mother-in-law who likes to roll and splash, and sighed secretly. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
Forget it, let's pick it slowly later, it's just that the young man is good, it's a pity.
Seeing that her mother didn't say much and respected her opinion, Liao Qingqing was very relieved, hugged her arm tightly, and the two went to the supply and marketing cooperatives to line up to buy oil.
At present, the supply of necessities of life is still relatively tight, everything has to be ticketed, in the rural areas grain is divided among the teams, food stamps are not used much, meat, oil, cloth, these have become the most tightly sold commodities, even if there are tickets in the back of the queue may not be able to buy.
Liao Qingqing asked Ou Hongying to line up and went to Xiao Yue's tailor shop by herself. From a distance, the dress she made before was gone, and it seemed that it was sold.
"Qingqing, you're here." The two cooperated, and Xiao Yue also began to call her by her name at Liao Qingqing's request.
Liao Qingqing nodded, "Sister Xiao Yue, this time the time is short, I will draw five pictures for you first, and then I will find time to draw them for you." ”
Xiao Yue brought a stool out for Liao Qingqing to sit, took the drawings and looked at them carefully, and nodded secretly in her heart, "These styles are good, I'll find a way to make them later, and I'll show you when the time comes." ”
Xiao Yue put the drawings close to her, and took out eight yuan from her waist bag and handed it to Liao Qingqing.
"The dress was sold the next day. I saw that the girl liked it very much, and the price was quoted a little higher, but I didn't expect it to be true. ”
In addition to the cost, he earned six yuan at once, and Liao Qingqing couldn't help but hook the corners of his mouth, six yuan is very useful in this era.
"Sister Xiao Yue, I'm glad I hurt you." Liao Qingqing took out two yuan from it and handed it to Xiao Yue, doing business is about honesty and reciprocity, although this dress was made before the two cooperated, but it was difficult to sell without Xiao Yue, and the price may not be so high.
"Qingqing, no need. Keep it all. Xiao Yue is not for this small profit in front of her, she is also happy to be able to sell it at a price, which is equivalent to testing the water, but not to make money.
"Sister Xiao Yue, you are a businessman, there is a reason not to charge money for helping me sell something, and this will not let people say that I take advantage of you." The important thing in partnership is to look at the character, and she wants to make a good impression on Xiao Yue.
Liao Qingqing said that Xiao Yue was really useful, and she glanced at this girl again in her heart, and in the end she only received one dollar.
The two talked about some details again, and after making an appointment for the next meeting, Liao Qingqing got up to say goodbye and went to the supply and marketing cooperatives to find Ou Hongying.
Ou Hongying has just bought oil and come out, a small bottle contains two taels of rapeseed oil, which is the meat grain of the whole family for half a month.
Liao Qingqing pinched the seven yuan in the bag and took Ou Hongying to the free market to buy meat.
At present, the supply of agricultural commodities has passed the tense period of the previous few years, and many production teams have engaged in the rural economy, and they can buy melons and fruits without tickets, but the prices are one to two times more expensive than the prices of supply and marketing cooperatives, and ordinary families do not have the spare money to spend.
"Qingqing, what are you bringing me here for?" Ou Hongying also thought that her daughter was greedy and wanted to eat some meat, but their family still had to build two rooms for Liao Wenjie to marry his daughter-in-law, and they also had to prepare a dowry for Qingqing, and now the money in their hands was far from enough, and they couldn't spend a penny casually.
"Mom, this little oil is enough to eat. Let's buy some fat meat and go back and refine some oil. After two days, there was a lot of work on the team, and there was no oily dad and brothers. ”
Ou Hongying was embarrassed, she knew this truth, but the money in her hand was too tight to spend.
"Mom, it's okay, I'm rich." Liao Qingqing took in Ou Hongying's expression, took her hand and went to a meat stall.
"Qingqing, you don't have much money on you, do you? Keep the flowers for yourself, and I'll buy this meat. Ou Hongying only thought that her daughter wanted to spend the little private money on herself, but she was unwilling, so she gritted her teeth and planned to buy half a catty of meat back.
"Alas, Mom, let your daughter be filial to you today and spend my money." Today was the first time she had made money in business, and although she couldn't tell everyone about it yet, she could buy some meat and go back to the house to make a meat meal, and it should be celebrated.
Liao Qingqing said that Ou Hongying was happy in her heart, so she would give the money, anyway, what she wanted to buy in the future, she would give her money, it would be the same.
It's not early now, and there is no more lard and soaked slag meat on the butcher's stall, only ordinary fat and thin pork.
In this day and age, fat meat is more expensive than lean meat. Thinking that it would be used for oil refining, Liao Qingqing also picked a piece of fat, which weighed more than three catties and cost nearly five yuan.
originally thought of buying only half a catty, but after buying so much at once, Ou Hongying was distressed and happy, and finally she was reluctant to blame Liao Qingqing.
The two mothers and daughters happily went back, completely oblivious to the fact that there was someone behind them.
Qin Xiaohu followed him until he reached the bridgehead before stopping, thinking that it was a matter of nine out of ten, but he didn't know why it was yellow. In the past two years, many people have introduced him to the object, but he has not agreed, the family conditions are good, and he wants to find a beautiful girl who agrees. This time this girl named Liao Qingqing fell in love at first sight, but how could people look down on him?
Qin Xiaohu was distressed, and after being pulled back by his mother, he secretly ran out again. There is no way, as soon as I close my eyes, it is the figure of the girl, and the ghost sends the god to look for her shadow and want to see her.
It's rare to buy meat at home, and I made an unprecedented sweet potato stuffy rice for lunch.
Fat pork refined most of the jar of lard, oil residue and lean meat with mung bean sprouts fried in a large pot, pork skin also burned and cut and stewed with potatoes, if it is accompanied by two dishes, it can catch up with the Chinese New Year's Eve dinner. The whole yard was filled with the aroma, which made the children of several nearby families drool.
The meal was served, and Ou Hongying took a large porcelain bowl with a bowl of fried meat with bean sprouts, ready to send it to Mrs. Wang in the hall.
"Mom, I'll send it." Liao Qingqing took the porcelain bowl in her mother's hand, her grandmother likes to be a demon the most, and when she sees that his family has meat to eat, she may be unbalanced and scold her father and mother, so it is better to deal with her herself.
The meal in the old kitchen was not yet ready, and Mrs. Wang had already smelled the smell of pork, and had been sitting in the hall waiting for the boss to call her or wait for him to bring a plate of dishes. After waiting for a long time, she couldn't help but want to pull her legs, and when she passed, she saw Liao Qingqing's figure.
"Milk, I bought some meat at home by refining oil." Liao Qingqing put the bowl on the table.
Mrs. Wang didn't look up, she stared at the bowl of meat and vegetables with an indifferent look, secretly swallowed her saliva, and said "um" to Liao Qingqing.
