Chapter Twenty-Seven: He Yushui
Li Ping'an was riding a bicycle, and when he was about to arrive at the factory gate, he saw Dong Yanqin waiting about 500 meters away from the factory gate. Li Ping'an rode over and stopped in front of her. Hand her the pork wrapped in newspaper.
Dong Yanqin said a few words of thanks after taking the pork, and then the two separated and went back to their respective homes
As soon as Li Ping'an arrived at the gate, the three masters stopped Li Ping'an
"Peace, I heard that you went to the countryside today to buy two wild boars"
"Three masters, you listened to the three mothers, right?"
"Yes, yes, I just came back from work today, and your three mothers told me about it, and said that you brought a pig's head home, aren't I curious, I just saw you back, so I asked you"
"The three mothers are right, the three masters, come to the house to eat meat tonight"
"I'm so sorry, I'll bring a bottle of wine"
Li Ping'an waved his hand and said
"Three masters, I'm only in charge of the dishes, not the staple food. I've also heard that you like to bring wine mixed with water when you go to someone's house. Go to my house, don't bring any water."
These words made the three masters blush, and they immediately refuted it
"Your three masters know the rules, don't listen to others arranging your three masters there, there's no such thing, don't worry, the wine that the three masters bring to your dinner will definitely not be mixed with water"
Li Ping'an smiled, knowing that the third master is a person who likes to take advantage of a little bit, he Li Ping'an is not short of this thing, this weather is hot, and there is more meat brought back, the home is different from the rolling mill, there is a refrigerator in the factory, there is no refrigerator at home, if you can't finish eating, this meat can not be put for two days.
Li Ping'an returned to Yi Zhonghai's house in the middle courtyard, at this time an aunt was cooking, Yi Zhonghai sat on a chair and listened to the radio broadcast, Li Ping'an said hello to Yi Zhonghai after he came in, and then said to an aunt
"Aunt, stir-fry a few more dishes, and I'll invite the second and third uncles to come to the house for dinner in the evening."
Before the first aunt could reply, Yi Zhonghai answered first
"Ping'an, how did you get so much meat back today, did you buy it yourself or did you send it from the commune?"
"The commune took the initiative to send it, this time it was our section chief who took me there, and the commune caught three big wild boars and a few small ones today, and sold two big wild boars to our factory, and the rest was divided by the commune itself."
Hearing that Li Ping'an understood what he meant, he didn't say anything more. Yi Zhonghai was mainly worried that this was what Li Ping'an asked the commune for, and if the commune took the initiative to send it, plus he went with their section chief, then there would be no problem.
When the first aunt saw that the two had already spoken, she didn't say anything more, went to take out the meat, and said
"Let the pillar make this dish today, if I make it, it will ruin so much meat"
"Okay, I'll go and see if Brother Zhu has come back, I sent the pigs to the factory today, and when I left, I saw Brother Zhu killing pigs there."
As he spoke, he walked out and came to the door of the stupid pillar's house, the door was open, and he was not polite, and walked in directly
"Brother Zhuzi, you're back."
There was no figure of Silly Zhu in the house, and inside was a girl helping Silly Pillar clean up the house. This girl is good-looking, tall, just a little thin, with a melon seed face, and a twisted braid that all girls will tie at this time.
Li Ping'an immediately reacted, this is Silly Zhu's sister He Yushui.
(According to the limited number of times He Yushui eats with Silly Zhu in the TV series, you can see that there is meat on the table, and He Yushui is not very interested in meat, which means that He Yushui can often eat meat here in Silly Zhu, and there is no shortage of this.) It shows that He Yushui is thin because he can't eat fat, and it's not that the stupid pillar in the same culture didn't take care of her)
Looking at He Yushui, who was looking at him with inquiring eyes, Li Ping'an immediately introduced
"Hello comrade, you are He Yushui, my name is Li Ping'an, I am a purchaser of the rolling mill, I have just been assigned to the yard, and the uncle of our yard is my uncle"
When He Yushui heard Li Ping'an say this, he was also embarrassed to explain
"Comrade Li Ping'an, hello, my factory is a little far away from the courtyard, I usually don't live at home, I will only come back when I am free or resting, so I haven't heard the news that you moved in."
"Yes, I heard your brother talk about you, and you just came back, right? Don't cook, go to my uncle's house to eat in the evening."
"That's embarrassing, the food is rationed, I'll wait for my brother to come back, I'll eat it with my brother"
"It's okay, don't be embarrassed, my family is still in charge of your brother and sister's meal, I'm just here to ask your brother to eat together, let's go, let your brother clean up your brother's things, my aunt is still waiting"
He Yushui saw Li Ping'an say this, and he didn't refuse, so he followed Li Ping'an out.
As soon as the two of them went out of the door, they saw Silly Zhuti slipping two lunch boxes and coming back in a leisurely manner.
Qin Huairu didn't wash her clothes by the pool today, probably because she knew that the rain would come back today, and Silly Zhu's lunch box would not be given to her, so she didn't go out to intercept it.
When Silly Zhu saw the two of them coming out of his room, he asked curiously
"Brother Ping'an, are you looking for me?"
"That's the case, today the commune below beat a few wild boars, the big ones were sold to our factory, and the rest of the small wild boars, people gave me a pig's head, I didn't let you go to marinate it, by the way, I asked you to go to my uncle's place to eat."
When Silly Zhu heard this, he was immediately happy
"Okay, I'm good at braised pig's head, I also brought some good things today, so let's eat it together"
As he spoke, he went to Yi Zhonghai's house, and he didn't even go back to his own home
The three of them entered Yi Zhonghai's house together, and after Silly Zhu came in, he was not polite, he directly opened his lunch box and said proudly
"Look what it is"
Li Ping'an took a look, hey, this grandson of Silly Zhu really deserves to be the chef of the kitchen, and whenever there is a good thing in the kitchen, he has to keep a part of it.
What was in Silly Zhu's lunch box was a piece of three-fingered pork belly weighing more than a catty
Li Ping'an looked at the stupid pillar speechlessly
"Brother Zhuzi, this is what I just sent to the two wild boars in the factory today, can you really do it"
Silly Zhu smiled
"Exactly, today, Wan Tongsheng's old boy asked me to work overtime to kill pigs, do you think I can work overtime for nothing, this is my overtime pay"
The people in the room except Li Ping'an didn't think there was anything strange, the chefs all had this habit these days, no matter where they went to cook, as long as there were good things, they would intercept some of them and take them away
As the saying goes, the cook doesn't steal grains and doesn't harvest
After seeing that Silly Zhu took out the meat, an aunt also took out all the meat that Li Ping'an brought back today and put it on the table, a small pig's head, and a piece of lean meat weighing five catties.
An aunt sighed as she looked at the amount of meat on the table
"I got so much meat today, but it's more meat than the New Year's meat"
