Chapter 14 New Year's Goods
After Chen Guiyun returned to the house, the family breathed a sigh of relief, you look at me, I look at you, they all laughed, it turned out that when Li was about to walk to the door, Huo Jianguo heard the footsteps, and the family quickly hid the good food, wine and nest head, leaving only a plate of vegetables and corn paste to pretend, "Old Huo, I think these two people are not good." It's not like I'm here to apologize, and I come in without knocking on the door, but it's like we're here to spy on the enemy. Chen Guiyun said.
"Isn't it that you usually show some horses' feet?" Huo Jianguo agreed with Chen Guiyun's point of view in his heart, "I know, I know" Mingcheng raised his hand high, "I have seen Li Dazhuang and Li Erzhuang walking around next to our house several times. ”
"It should be like this, it seems that they are suspicious, and we will pay more attention in the future." Chen Guiyun said. "It's okay, just pay more attention to it, but Mingyang and Mingcheng don't talk about it." Huo Jianguo said that Mingyang Mingcheng repeatedly promised that he would not leak military information.
After Li Lianzhu and Ge Xiaohua returned home, Ge Xiaohua hurriedly brought the rice to the table, Li Lianzhu felt something flash through his mind, Ge Xiaohua served a bowl of gruel to everyone, and said: "Chen Guiyun, a woman who can't live, will put aside the oil for a few days when she stir-fries." Li Lianzhu heard Ge Xiaohua's words, and grabbed the thought in his mind again: "You said that there is a lot of oil in that bowl of dishes?" Well, it's not just vegetables, but there are more noodles in the corn paste than our family eats in a day. After all, Ge Xiaohua is a housewife, she revolves around the pot every day, and she can guess the difference when she looks at the food of the Huo family, Li Lian recalled the smell he smelled the moment he entered the door, and now he thinks about it, it is the smell of wine, and there are others, it is very fragrant, it should be meat. So he told his guess. Ge Xiaohua's eyes widened: "What? You say her family has not only meat, but also wine?"
Li Lianzhu's face was dark and uncertain, at this time his heart was full of jealousy, he knew that his ability was indeed inferior to Huo Jianguo, Huo Jianguo was born and died several times, he thought he couldn't do it, so he was still convinced of Huo Jianguo's position, he was jealous that Huo Jianguo had such a good wife, gentle, educated, and working, and a respected doctor, he was jealous of the Huo family's living standard, he knew how much Huo Jianguo's allowance was, and he attributed everything he saw today to Chen Guiyun, thinks that it is because of Chen Guiyun's medical skills that he can get so many benefits. "Usually keep an eye on the Huo family." Li held his voice low, but everyone in the family nodded, and Li Erzhuang said: "Dad, I smelled the meat of the Mingcheng family, I asked him if he still said no, did we find his meat and give it to me." Li Lian looked at his youngest son and finally felt better, nodded, Li Erzhuang saw that his father affirmed what he said, turned his head and made a grimace at the three sisters: "If you have meat, you will not lose money to eat, and my brother and I will not leave you at all after eating." Li Tie and Ge Xiaohua didn't seem to hear what Li Erzhuang said, Li Dazhuang also giggled after hearing his brother's words, and the three sisters of the Li family lowered their heads deeper, only looking at the half bowl of gruel in the bowl, and didn't dare to say a word.
In a blink of an eye, it is the root of the year, this is the most important festival of the Chinese nation, whether you have money or not, everyone will try their best to have a good year, the hospital has paid wages and benefits early this year, three catties of meat per person, a bottle of liquor, don't look at just these things, Chen Guiyun brought things back that day, and the people in the compound spoke sourly for several days, and the entire Jishi is estimated to have better benefits than Chen Guiyun Hospital.
The hospital has been on holiday since yesterday afternoon, Chen Guiyun let the children go to bed early, and this morning they have to get up very early to queue up to grab the New Year's goods, no way, there are few materials, first come, first served, although there are things at home, but some tickets expire if they are not used anymore, Ming Nuan and Chen Guiyun said that they would take her tomorrow morning, the reason is that they naturally want to hide from the world and the sea, and secretly Chen Cang.
It was only four o'clock, Ming Nuan was dug out of the quilt by Chen Guiyun and put on a down jacket, of course, it was also produced by the space supermarket, the whole family has it, Chen Guiyun also sewed a layer of red cloth on the outside of the clothes, turning the pink and tender down jacket into a village girl's style, which looks no different from an ordinary padded jacket. The sky outside is not yet bright, but you can see the crowds in front of the supply and marketing cooperatives from a distance.
Chen Guiyun locked the bicycle and lined up with Ming Nuan, this is not to wait until you can buy all the New Year's goods, different teams correspond to different things, as for what, only wait for the service staff of the supply and marketing cooperatives to come out to know.
Shivering in the cold wind for two hours, Ming Nuan secretly took out two hats and two scarves for Chen Guiyun and himself to bring, when it was almost seven o'clock, the staff finally came late, and slowly opened the door in the eyes of everyone, you thought you could buy something, naïve, two female staff stayed in it for more than half an hour, and five or six staff came one after another, they opened the door, and the door swarmed in, and instantly the supply and marketing cooperatives were filled with the voice of I want this, I want that.
A waitress wearing black high heels and a red scarf climbed onto the platform, her face was long, as if someone owed her money and didn't pay it back during the New Year, she stood on a high place, looking at the way she was eager to grab her head for something on the ground, a trace of disdain crossed her eyes, and said: "Don't squeeze, come one by one, if anyone dares to cut in line, let me out." ”
Seeing that the crowd below suddenly quieted down, with a hint of pride on his face, he jumped down and began to cut the meat for the guests, Chen Guiyun hugged Ming Nuan and gradually moved forward, Ming Nuan found that the meat cut by the waitress was lean, and there was still a lot of fat and pork belly left after half a piece of pig was sold, but she stopped cutting it, and asked someone to move out another piece of pork and start selling it. Ming Nuan knew that the last fat meat must have been divided by a few of them, and fat meat is a good thing this year, which can make oil and make the stomach have more oil and water. When I arrived at them, anyway, there was no oil at home, Chen Guiyun didn't say that she wanted more fatty meat, only said that she wanted five catties of meat, Chen Guiyun bought a lot, the waitress looked up and found that Chen Guiyun was wearing a turtleneck sweater in her padded jacket, and there were no patches on her clothes, so she didn't say anything, picked up a knife and cut a piece of meat, weighed it and didn't weigh it, wrapped it in paper and threw it on the counter, Chen Guiyun ignored her, picked up the meat and put it in the basket. Chen Guiyun lined up again with Ming Nuan, this pair is selling hairtail, this is a good thing, usually can't be seen, today is also very expensive, eight cents a catty, but also meat tickets, so there are very few people who buy, the meat is only five cents, and eating hairtail is a taste, meat and oil, Chen Guiyun didn't wait long to buy it, bought three catties of hairtail, in the envious eyes of everyone holding Mingnuan and went to another line, this team is selling cloth, everyone buys hairtail is just a taste, it would be good to buy a catty.
After coming out, Chen Guiyun carried Ming Nuan to a small alley, looked left and right to see that there was no meat, Ming Nuan put his hand into the basket, covered it with a cloth and took out two catties of eggs, a pack of white rabbit toffee, a bag of melon seeds, a small barrel of oil, and a few pieces of cloth.
Chen Guiyun hung the basket on the handlebars, and carefully rode home along the way, and when she returned to the compound, several military wives surrounded her, and Chen Guiyun stopped the car. The first to speak was Li Xiaofeng, the one who quarreled with her husband in the middle of the night before: "Sister-in-law, what are the goods of the supply and marketing cooperatives today?" "Ah, there are a lot of goods today, I see not only meat, but also oil, and I heard that there is a new batch of cloth arriving." Chen Guiyun picked up something that everyone cared about. "What did my sister-in-law buy today?" Chen Xiaohong looked at the baskets that were full and covered with a cloth, Chen Guiyun smiled and said, "As in previous years, what else can there be." Saying that, he lifted the cloth and showed it to everyone, a piece of paper holding meat, a few pieces of cloth, Chen Xiaohong was about to reach out to get the cloth, Chen Guiyun quickly closed the basket again, Chen Xiaohong withdrew his hand and said, "Sister-in-law, what kind of cloth is this, why haven't I seen it?" Oh, I heard the waiter say that this is a new cloth that has just arrived, called corduroy, and it is not expensive, only a dime and twenty-one feet, and it is quite thick, and there are many people who buy it, and I don't see much left, if you want to buy it, go quickly. Chen Guiyun said and pushed the cart home. Leaving a few military wives standing in the middle of the courtyard, "Look at that piece of meat, it has to be five catties, right?" Chen Xiaohong suddenly came out with a sentence, the military wives didn't answer, they all knew that there was a lot of meat, it would be good to be able to cut two catties of meat in their own family for the New Year, and then make a dress for the eldest child, and the small one picked up the rest of the big one, which can be regarded as a new dress, Dr. Chen's cloth is enough to make one for her child, several military wives stood for a while, did not speak, and each went back to their respective homes.
