Chapter 293: Hungry
Chu Yulan took out the delicious food she bought in the bazaar, all of which were snacks, and told a few people to keep their mouths shut and not to leak this matter, especially the adults of the family who couldn't tell it.
Chu Changgui patted his chest again and assured that he didn't think that Feng Dongmei had gotten the news from him at all, and Chu Yulan couldn't help frowning. Chu Changfu wanted to speak several times, but was stopped by Shen Shangxiang, she felt that Chu Yulan didn't want to be such a bastard person, she shouldn't be so confused, maybe she had her own reasons.
In the final analysis, it is still a short mouth, a soft hand, and eating the delicious food that Chu Yulan bought, and there is no way to say what is right.
At half past one in the afternoon, the rain became lighter and lighter, and gradually stopped, Chu Yulan took the minced meat filling and the large bags and small bags bought at the market at noon, and went to Shen's house with Shen Shangxiang. She deliberately brought the relationship between the two families closer, and didn't want to make it difficult for the eldest brother, Chu Changfu naturally wanted to follow, Chu Changgui saw that everyone had gone, and he also shouted to go.
Chu Yulan saw that so many people went to the Shen family, although she had good intentions, but eating and drinking was also an expense, so she gave money to let Chu Changgui go to the supply and marketing cooperatives to buy a bag of white noodles and a bag of rice. These words were said behind Shen Shangxiang's back, Chu Changgui is simple, but it doesn't mean stupid, he knows better than anyone else about human feelings.
White flour and rice are fifty catties per bag, and Chu Changgui has some difficulty resisting two bags alone, so he called Chu Changfu to go with him, and Chu Changfu's eyes were a little red. In the end, he just patted Chu Yulan on the shoulder, everything was in plain sight, and Chu Yulan understood what he was going to say.
Rainy days in the countryside is a day to satisfy hunger, no need to work, all at home, every family rushes to make something delicious on this day. Usually busy with work, meals are made up in one mouthful, but in the busy farming season, even boiling water can't be boiled.
Chu Yulan asked Chu Changfu to buy ten catties of meat in the morning, half of the meat and fried buns were sent to the Shen family, and half of the meat was chopped into meat filling, and she planned to eat the buns. In this era, although life is slowly getting better, everyone can barely eat enough, but meat is still rare, the family is good, and only during the New Year can you buy two catties.
Therefore, everyone is short of oil and water in their stomachs, and buns can satisfy their cravings, and they don't need to spend oil, and oil is also a good thing. Chu Yulan spent a lot of oil to fry buns in the morning, Cheng Fengzhi didn't care about her, she couldn't fry meatloaf in the afternoon, and she would really be scolded at that time.
She told Chu Changfu to buy pork belly in the morning, Chu Changfu was reluctant to buy lean meat, or buy more fat and less lean meat, he felt that he would not suffer a loss. Put condiments, peppercorns, green onions, ginger and garlic in the minced meat, especially green onions, put more, the buns are not big, a little bigger than xiaolongbao.
Everyone has a different division of labor, the two children of the Shen family peel garlic, Chu Changgui burns the fire, Chu Changfu adds water, Shen Shangxiang and noodles, and Chu Yulan mixes the stuffing. Everyone was busy, the whole house was very lively, Shen Quande on the kang was full of tears, how many years has this been, and the family has never been so lively as today. He even felt that the whole person was full of energy, and he was ten years younger in an instant, and he rarely felt hungry after not feeling hungry for many years.
The noise of people, the laughter of children was sandwiched in it, accompanied by the sound of tinkling pots and pans, perhaps, the hope of the Shen family's future was rekindled.
Outside, the rain began to fall again, and everyone in the house did not notice it at all, and the spring smoke rose in a curling manner, accompanied by bursts of aroma, and disappeared into the torrential rain with the wind.
