After putting away the grain, meat and snacks, Chu Xiangqian made another pot of mutton soup with his own hands.

Woke up Qin Huairu and Lou Xiao'e, accompanied by sesame baked cakes and fried dough sticks, the two women who ate it were sweating and their appetites were open.

It's just that after eating, Qin Huairu said that in the future, the place to play will still be on the beach street.

Although it is farther away, it also means that the probability of meeting an acquaintance is lower.

As for how to notify the two of them, just think about last night, and ask Da Zhuang or Red Niu to scream a few times outside the thrift yard.

After seeing the hound, the two of them knew that Chu Xiangqian was back, and they would meet directly on Beach Street at night.

Chu Xiangqian thought about it, and quickly nodded, the small courtyard here was finally taken by himself from Liu Yifa at the beginning.

Although the head of the courtyard has been transferred to his own name, if the Liu family comes back recently, it will inevitably be another trouble.

Of course, in the 80s, there would be no problem at all.

On the beach street, it is only a twenty-minute walk from the thrift purchase station, and Lou Xiao'e bought it herself.

It's safer indeed.

After breakfast, I thought that Qin Huairu was going to work, and she could get tired of Lou Xiao'e for another morning.

Unexpectedly, this woman was too thoughtful, so she pulled Lou Xiao'e and said, I will go to the neighborhood committee today to ask.

By the way, she explained to Lou Xiao'e, and said that she bought dried meat, dried fish, and flour at her own expense.

With Aunt Wang's shrewdness, she would definitely guess that these things were bought from Chu Xiangqian. After all, you can still get dried meat and salted fish at this time, and the piece of Luoguxiang is also Chu Xiangqian's ability.

Aunt Wang is more or less afraid of Chu Xiangqian's face, but fortunately, Qin Huairu used materials to exchange for work, and now there is Lou Xiao'e, but it seems that the two of them are not entangled, and Chu Xiangqian has no entanglement.

At most, he would only suspect that Chu Xiangqian couldn't wipe off his neighbor's face, so he helped get some dried meat and salted fish.

But Chu Xiangqian knew that as long as Aunt Wang knew about this, she would definitely come to the door to buy wild meat from him and send it to him.

Chu Xiangqian was not worried about this at all, anyway, when he came back this time, he first got two blind bears for the rolling mill.

and to the street at the intersection of the road, got two wild boars and 3,000 catties of dried salted fish.

Another two or three hundred catties of game for the neighborhood committee is the smallest quantity.

Looking at Qin Huairu, using a small package of a few catties of white noodles and a piece of salted dried fish, Lou Xiao'e didn't care at all, anyway, she also had half of the things.

And there is also a lot of food on Beach Street, and Chu Xiangqian gives herself 200 yuan of pocket money every month, and she really doesn't put a little food in her heart.

After Chu Xiangqian saw it, he only smiled, and Qin Huairu was relieved when he saw this.

At the same time, he also understood that after serving him with Lou Xiao'e, this guy should no longer care about the food he brought back to the courtyard.

But the more this is the case, Qin Huairu thought to herself, it's okay to bring things, but you also have to have a degree.

Otherwise, if you bring too many things, you may make mistakes and omissions in your interpretation.

Of course, this is also related to the fact that Jia Zhang's family, Bang Geng and Xiaodang all have a Beijing hukou and fixed grain.

Compared with the past, at the end of every month, facing the dilemma of no rations, not only Qin Huairu became relieved, but even Jia Zhang's family began to ask for face.

I don't have to keep an eye on the other people in the courtyard all the time, the things at home.

As the old saying goes, you know etiquette and know etiquette when you have enough food and clothing.

Moreover, there are indeed many other households in the courtyard, and now they are not as good as the Jia family.

Jia Zhang's and Qin Huairu both have jobs, which is equivalent to a dual-income family, and it is not difficult to raise two children who already have fixed food, compared to other families.

Seeing off Qin Huairu and Lou Xiao'e, Chu Xiangqian locked the door and rode his bicycle out of the alley slowly, wanting to go back to Qianmen's house directly.

But after thinking about it, I still took a detour and took a look at the Jade River.

When I arrived at the river, I saw that the river was indeed frozen, and there were many people fishing on the ice, and I suddenly remembered my experience of fishing here at the end of the millennium and the beginning of last year.

If he hadn't thought about going back to the Qianmen courtyard, he would have wanted to relive the fun of ice fishing.

However, I didn't go far on a bicycle, and next to a forest, I determined that there was no one in front and behind through the chickadees, and a large grass carp of six or seven catties suddenly appeared in reality.

Chu Xiangqian hung the grass carp on the handlebar with a willow branch, whistled, and rode home slowly.

Sister Tao and Zhao Di couldn't help but be happy when they saw the big grass carp on the bicycle.

The bigger the fish, the better it is, and Sister Tao's skill in making fish is also one of the dishes she is best at.

Sister Tao instantly thought of several ways to eat in her mind, and even made more than one fish, in short, everyone had a good mouth at noon.

Chu Xiangqian handed over the fish and bicycle to Sister Tao and Zhao Di, and when he walked into the middle courtyard, he heard Aiqiu's giggling sound from the main room.

Needless to say, it must be Xue Jinglan, Fei Fei and Aiyuan who are teasing Aiqiu.

Opened the door curtain and walked in, and sure enough, I saw two daughters-in-law and two cousins playing cards, but Aiqiu was still a child in the end, not to mention learning, there were many cards in his hand, and he couldn't hold it with both hands.

I can only spread the cards on the bed, and I am worried that someone will peek at it, and the small body arches like a caterpillar, which makes people want to laugh when they see it.

Seeing that Chu Xiangqian came back, Aiqiu stopped playing cards this time, got up from the soft collapse, and threw himself on Chu Xiangqian without wearing shoes.

Chu Xiangqian could only hurriedly lean over to catch the little girl and pick her up, and felt Aiqiu's hands tightly around his neck, and his little head was lying on his shoulders and began to complain.

Ehime and Fei Fei, who provoked her, couldn't help laughing and scolding.

Chu Xiangqian also teased the little sister and said, the eldest brother has to listen to his sister-in-law now, Aiqiu was stunned, pouted, muttered, and ran to Xue Jinglan's arms to be coquettish.

Chu Xiangqian laughed, his little sister will definitely be a powerful master in the future.

Ordinary little dolls, but not as faceless and skinless as her, most of them don't know how to deal with the situation just now.

Very little, very rarely, like Aiqiu, will turn his head and curry favor with Xue Jinglan without hesitation.

Then Chu Xiangqian accompanied Aiqiu and played cards with his two daughters-in-law and Ehime for a while, and it was soon noon.

After lunch, Aiqiu was carried by Ehime to take a nap.

Chu Xiangqian glanced at Xue Jinglan and Fei Fei, the two women's hearts moved, and they glanced at Chu Xiangqian a few times shyly, and then they also used the excuse of lunch break to enter the rooms on the left and right sides of the main hall.

Chu Xiangqian couldn't see the thoughts of the two daughters-in-law, thinking that he had indeed not been intimate with them for several days, and he hadn't even come back to sleep for two days.

After a while, there was a sound of babbling in the room where Xue Jinglan was sleeping, and when Xue Jinglan was tired, she fell asleep in a daze.

In the side room where Fei Fei lived on the right side of the main room, there was another creaking and creaking rocking chair.

Although the furniture in this yard is all old objects, and when I bought it, I also asked the master to repair it, but Fei Fei, a chick, has always been very open when she was exercising.

tossing and turning in bed, not to mention, he also likes to do new tricks, and actually pulled Chu Xiangqian to practice yoga on the recliner.

Chu Xiangqian had competed with Qin Huairu and Lou Xiao'e last night, and the anger in his heart was much less, so he was really reluctant to move when he saw that Fei Fei was tired, so he ended the game early.

hugged Fei Fei's delicate body, gossiped, and slowly fell asleep.

It's a pity that she didn't sleep long, and Aiqiu, who took a two-hour nap, ran over to play with her eldest brother without any scruples.

Chu Xiangqian, who heard the knock on the door, could only helplessly get up with Fei Fei, who was also woken up.

It didn't take long for Xue Jinglan to come out neatly dressed, Chu Xiangqian thought about it, and simply took his daughter-in-law and sister-in-law out for a stroll, and by the way, he set a table in Donglai.

Wait for Aiguo, Aimin, Ailin and the second aunt to come over after work, and let the three sisters Zhaodi and Sister Tao take them to eat hot pot together.

After going out, it was already half past three in the afternoon, and I would definitely not go if it was too far.

I simply went to the Temple of Heaven Park, which was three or four stops away.

Aiqiu was the most excited along the way, even if she was hugged by Chu Qianqian, her small body was turning left and right, pointing here and there.

It wasn't until I bought her pea yellow and osmanthus cakes that she quieted down.

Xue Jinglan, Fei Fei and Ehime are also in a very good mood, anyway, with Chu Xiangqian by their side, it is also a pleasure to walk around in the park.

At about 5 o'clock in the afternoon, the sky began to darken, and everyone left the park and took two rickshaws to meet in Donglaishun.

When they arrived at the place, the five of them naturally arrived early, and when they arrived at half past six, they saw Aiguo and the three sisters Tao and Zhaodi entering the door together.

Just eating and eating, he actually said that the mutton was not sold, Chu Qianqian looked up at the waiter in surprise, and saw that the other party was a little embarrassed to say something.

Recently, there is only a quota of 4 sheep per day in their store, and sometimes, the lamb is sold out after noon.

When Xue Jinglan and the others heard this, they sighed in their hearts and subconsciously looked at Chu Xiangqian.

Chu Xiangqian is not stupid, so naturally he will not say that he can get it, besides, even if he is willing to take the mutton out of the warehouse.

If you go out and go around, it will take half an hour, or even an hour to come back.

If that's the case, I'll have eaten some tofu and vegetables a long time ago, and I'll be full of noodles.

After thinking about it, he waved his hand to let the waiter have something to eat, and by the way, he gave the other party 20 yuan and food stamps first.

It is considered to be more refunds and less compensation, and when the girl is gone, then he said to the second aunt, younger brothers and sisters and daughters-in-law, "Ming'er, I will get two sheep back, and then invite the second and third uncles over." ”

After speaking, he looked at Xue Jinglan, "Just invite the old man, the old lady, the father-in-law, the mother-in-law, the second uncle, and the aunt's family to the house."

In the evening, Aiguo, Aimin and Zhu got off work early to help Sister Tao, Zhaodi and others, and took the second aunt to personally bring the rain to recognize the door.

At the same time, it can be regarded as a new daughter-in-law who came to my eldest brother's house. ”

Xue Jinglan nodded happily, and looked at the second aunt with a little blushing, and the second aunt naturally nodded busily.

Although the wedding has to wait until March next year, this matter has actually been decided, and now He Yushui will go to Chu Qianqian's house with his new daughter-in-law.

After taking the door-to-door gift, I have no chance to regret it.

Others joked about patriotism while also saying congratulatory words to the second aunt.

There are not many heads, soy milk and green vegetables are not mentioned, and two plates of garlic ham are actually served.

This thing is more popular than fresh meat in this era, but for Chu Xiangqian, after a few decades of ham processing, there are health problems from time to time, and the processing hygiene in this year is even more unpredictable.

Even, the devil knows what kind of meat is inside.

When you think about the ham in World War II, it is all unsellable beef and sheep leftovers, made with recycled fat and starch, and you lose your appetite in an instant.

To be honest, in the thirties and forties of the magnesium country, and even in the sixties to the present, the food safety problem was much more serious than that of the future Celestial Empire.

Chu Xiangqian couldn't be sure what the problem was with this ham, so naturally he couldn't talk nonsense, and the store took out two plates of ham at this time, which was most likely kind.

At this time, opening his mouth is blind, which is looking for scolding.

After thinking about it, he picked up a piece of ham that Xue Jinglan had scalded for herself, put it in her mouth and chewed it slowly, tasted it carefully, and felt that there was no problem with it, so she was secretly relieved.

It's right to think about it, the production of ham is very small this year, and there is basically no situation where you can't be busy.

Since you don't have to work at full capacity, the chance of workers making mistakes is very small.

However, don't think about it, there must be a lot of preservatives in the ham of this year.

Fortunately, eat less, but the problem is not big.

And to be honest, when Chu Xiangqian was a child in his previous life, he ate a lot of ham sausages, and he didn't grow up normally.

If you really care, then you can only farm by yourself, grow vegetables, and raise pigs by yourself, otherwise no one can escape the level of additives.

——

After eating, the group walked back to the Qianmen courtyard with laughter and laughter, walked to the teahouse, and heard laughter from inside, Chu Xiangqian listened carefully, and soon found that there was actually cross talk inside.

Raised his hand and looked at his watch, it was only half past eight o'clock, and asked his daughter-in-law and second aunt, seeing that the second aunt hesitated and said that she might be late for work tomorrow if she slept late.

Chu Xiangqian immediately guessed that the second aunt actually wanted to listen to cross talk.

Led everyone into the door, and when the second aunt saw this, she could only follow the big guy in with a smile.

It's a pity that the cross talk has been open for almost 2 hours, and when it ends, the time is only half past 9.

Xue Jinglan and Fei Fei pulled Ehime and whispered, if it's okay tomorrow afternoon, come and listen again.

Aiqiu, this little thing, immediately asked her sister-in-law to hug her, and then Ming'er was allowed to follow her.

I love the country, love the people, and love Lin with envy, but two have to go to work and one has to go to school, unlike Aiqiu, it doesn't matter if I can't go to kindergarten.

Before 4 o'clock in the afternoon the next day, Silly Zhu, patriotism, and love the people got off work in advance to prepare.

I saw that the second uncle and the third uncle had already helped Sister Tao and the three sisters Zhaodi, and the two sheep that had been dealt with were hanging under the eaves.

Even the haggis or something had been cleaned, and the stupid pillar swallowed greedily.

Then he couldn't help but sigh, and only Chu Qianqian could easily get these good things this year.

Not long after, the second aunt came to the door with rainwater, and Chu Xiangqian, who was the eldest brother, gave 200 yuan, saying that it was the door-to-door fee.

Xue Jinglan and Fei Fei's two sisters-in-law are also 180 per person, and the stupid pillar's mouth can't close when he laughs immediately.

He Yushui was directly dumbfounded, the new daughter-in-law in the capital only gave a red envelope, and at most three or five yuan.

Those who can give 10 yuan are already very particular people.
