Chapter 126: Homecoming!
On the table, there was a breakfast left for Shu Xin, which was a fragrant egg cake, with cold soy milk, and he ate half of it comfortably, and fed the rest of the soy milk to Mu Jianyun.
After going back, she had to build a few new stoves, Mu Jianyun went to help her buy materials, and she first went to the black market to find the old man.
At the beginning, when Shu Xin first sold coconut jelly, he spent six yuan to buy two of them.
Later, Shu Xin stopped selling coconut jelly, and he found a photo studio out of nowhere, contacted Shu Xin, and asked her if she could sell him some at a high price.
Shu Xin was not very happy at first, but when he heard that he bought it for his daughter Juanjuan, who had leukemia, he agreed, and gave him several times, only symbolically receiving two yuan.
This time she was gone for two weeks, and I don't know if the little girl was hungry for her, so when she went back, she would help her make a few more.
Bao You listened to Shuxin's question, smiled reluctantly, and said:
"Thanks, but no, my Juanjuan... It's gone. ”
Shu Xin felt in her heart, the medical technology and resources in this era are limited, and there is basically no good treatment for leukemia, she has long thought that there will be such a day, but she didn't expect it to be so soon.
After a few words of relief, Shu Xin still proposed that if Bao had any needs, he could call the military district at any time to tell her.
Bao You nodded again and again, Juanjuan has not loved to eat much since she was a child, and the next time she goes to see her, she should be happy to bring her to the grave.
Seeing that the bag was in the mood to recover a little, he hurriedly changed the topic.
The coconut oil and plain flour she now uses for snacks still taste a little worse.
So she asked her where to sell cake flour and butter.
Bao Xin has taken this matter to heart, and he has asked people to inquire around these days, but he still hasn't found anyone who specializes in selling low-gluten flour.
There is cornstarch, and he has already found a way, and if he wants it, he can transport it in two days.
Shu Xin nodded, it is okay to have cornstarch, and a certain proportion of ordinary flour and cornstarch can be mixed together, which can also replace low-gluten flour.
As for the butter, I heard that there was a bakery run by the British in the market, but they were all shipped from foreign ships, and if you want to buy it, the price is too expensive, and the weather is too hot to transport it.
Shu Xin asked the price, it actually cost ten yuan a catty, and it cost a hundred catties to buy, which is converted to a thousand yuan, even if she can afford it, there is no such a big refrigerator to put it, she can only dispel this idea.
She'd heard of homemade butter, but she hadn't tried it yet, so she had to go back and study it again.
Shu Xinhe Bao ordered more than 100 catties of first-class snowflake flour and cornstarch, and said that when the time came, he would let Bao You find a cargo ship to bring it over.
Seeing that the weather has been hot recently, Shu Xin asked him to find some ice powder seeds.
Before, she saw people eating this kind of thing in Sichuan in summer, and it was very refreshing, but she had never seen it in Huaning County.
Bao You said with a smile,
"I've heard of this! There are many in Sichuan Province and Lake Province, and our Hai Province is estimated to have it in the small mountain village of our hometown, and I am going to go back in the afternoon to find someone to help you pick some! No money! ”
After ordering things with Baoyou, Shu Xin bought some mung beans, red beans and other things, and took them back to the photo studio.
Today is not as deserted as yesterday, and there are more people than usual.
At noon, Aunt Wei made fried noodles with shredded pork and cut iced watermelon.
The watermelon was sandy, icy and sweet, and he couldn't stop eating it comfortably, so he also pulled Mu Jianyun to buy a large box and took it with him on the transport ship that had been contacted in advance.
After getting off the boat, Mu Jianyun was called away by the people sent by the head of the group.
Xiao Zhang was not there, and Mu Jianyun arranged for two other people to drive Shu Xin home.
When I got home, my sister-in-law was busy in the small workshop in the backyard.
The batch of fifty boxes sent to Ye Lingling a few days ago was sold out within one day, and another fifty boxes were ordered.
The photo studio also wanted to send another 20 boxes, and the Huaning Rubber Factory that I contacted before also said to take 30 boxes to test the water first.
Shu Xin put everything in place and hurried over to help.
Sister-in-law Jin Zhi has neat hands and feet, and she has done more than half of it.
The two of them worked together, and soon the rest was boxed and waited for tomorrow morning to be loaded and pulled away.
After finishing his work, Shu Xin took the batch of clothes made by Tuo Xiaoqing, and took Jin Zhi's sister-in-law to Ji's house to see Yu Qianqian.
I haven't seen Xiao Feifei for two weeks, and I feel comfortable and wonder about this little group.
When I arrived at Ji's house, it was a girl with a raw eye who opened the door, looking sixteen or seventeen years old, wearing a jujube bat shirt, and her eyes were timid.
Sister-in-law Jin Zhi whispered in her ear that this was the daughter of Aunt Lu, the new moon sister-in-law of the head of the group.
This Aunt Lu was specially invited by Mrs. Ji from Yu Qianqian's hometown, Mrs. Ji inspected and found that she was indeed a good cook and take care of children, so she was allowed to bring her daughter over.
Mrs. Ji was talking to someone, and when she saw that Shu Xin was coming, she hurriedly got up to greet her.
"Ah, Comrade Oda is back! It's to see Qianqian, right? She's sleeping with her baby! I guess I'll wake up in a while! ”
As he spoke, he sat down on the sofa, poured two glasses of water for them, asked her about Mu Jianyun's situation, and introduced her to the woman who looked about forty years old next to her.
"You haven't seen it yet, have you? This is the wife of the commander of your first battalion, Liao Yongmei. ”
Shu Xin hurriedly said hello to her.
Liao Yongmei responded with a smile, and looked at the bag in Shu Xin's hand again.
"Ah, this is a gift for Qianqian and the child, right? Open it up and give us long eyes! ”
Shu Xin always felt that this Mrs. Liao spoke in a weird way, but she still handed over the bag.
"It's not a gift, just..."
Before Shu Xin finished speaking, Liao Yongmei hurriedly said,
"It's clothes, too! I don't think I need it anymore, I just bought a batch of new doll clothes from Beijing two days ago, and it's enough to wear it until summer! ”
Mrs. Ji saw that the atmosphere between the two was a little weird, and hurriedly said,
"Oops, little doll fee clothes! Maybe none of this is enough! ”
Sister-in-law Jin Zhi also hurriedly echoed, "Yes, yes! It's all about it! ”
Shu Xin smiled,
"No, auntie, this bag is not a child's clothes, but a detachable cloth diaper that I specially found someone to make for Feifei!"
