After the snow fell, the temperature dropped suddenly, and the northwest wind blowing on my face hurt more than a slap from my stepmother.

Su Wei found that the water in the kitchen water tank was covered with a layer of ice. She broke the upper layer, took some water from the lower layer, and hurried back to the house.

She decided to cook in a small pot on the stove from now on.

Save time, effort and keep warm.

Now they have gone from three meals a day to two.

Chen Yan looked at the white snow outside and felt that he had forgotten something.

Su Wei was going to fry some fried dough twists and fried dough sticks, which she could eat for breakfast or dinner. It was so cold that she was too lazy to cook.

The Shen family has always lived a hard life. Shen's mother is a very frugal person. She only eats white noodles occasionally, and only cuts a little meat during festivals.

Later, Shen Dalang became rich and brought back a lot of money, but Shen's mother was used to being frugal, so apart from building two rooms, she continued to live her life as usual.

Even the women in the village are able to save money, which is called thriftiness.

But this was the first time that Su Wei had seen Chen Yan, who loved eating and dressing so much.

If Su Wei wanted to know what he was thinking, he would slap him in the face.

In her previous life, drinking a cup of milk tea was considered materialistic.

Now I can’t even live by eating steamed buns…

It's not like Su Wei hasn't tried to save money before, but coarse grains really make your throat hurt. It's hard to eat, and even harder to poop out. The poop is thicker than a bowl, and it's so sour. Only those who have pooped know...

So she decided not to put herself in a difficult position.

When Su Wei was working, Chen Yan would also help. The two of them worked quickly and soon a pot of fried dough twists and fried dough sticks were ready.

The fried dough twists just out of the pan are crispy and delicious.

"What delicious food are you making again?" Qin Yu came.

Before Su Wei could say anything, Chen Yan suddenly said, "Why are you like a dog, coming here just by smelling something?"

Qin Yu glanced at him, then turned to Su Wei and said, "Is this for sale? I'll buy it."

Su Wei was watching two men pulling each other's hair. Suddenly, his name was called and he nodded quickly: "Sell, sell, sell..."

Qin Yu went out with a bunch of food in his arms. The villagers who smelled the food were curious and couldn't help swallowing when they saw what was in his bowl.

Looks delicious...

The Chinese New Year is coming soon. Even the poorest families will eat something good. If they don’t eat it themselves, they will buy some for the children and the elderly at home.

Some people came to ask, and some were willing to buy, so the pot of fried dough twist was sold out very quickly.

In the evening, Su Wei sat at the table counting money.

There is a lot of money, but not enough food...

The weather is not good for going out now, and Su Wei is a little worried.

Chen Yan tried to hold back, but couldn't help saying, "You can use the money to buy noodles in the village."

Su Weiyi paused, then looked up at Chen Yan: "Yeah, why didn't I think of that."

She is so busy that she is stupid.

Chen Yan is such a clever little fellow.

The next day, Su Wei bought flour, oil and eggs as expected. There was also sugar at home. She started to get busy, and Chen Yan helped her. Su Wei discovered that Chen Yan was not without merits.

He was very hardworking and didn't care what work was done by men and what was done by women. He did whatever he could get his hands on. With him joining, Su Wei's work became very easy. The two of them fried a lot of fried dough twists and fried dough sticks. By the afternoon, some villagers came to ask about it.

The conditions in the village are poor. The villagers just cook and that's it. They don't know how to cook any other pasta except noodles, buns and steamed buns.

The food made by Su Wei became popular in the whole village almost instantly. It was not very expensive, at least much better than the extremely expensive snacks in the county. It was delicious, filling, and could be stored for a long time. It looked decent when taken out to entertain guests during the Chinese New Year.

A large pot of fried dough twists and fried dough sticks was sold out in no time.

"Will Shen Erjia still sell it tomorrow?" someone asked.

Su Wei nodded: "Selling it."

Pig offal is not available every day, and rice candy cannot be eaten every day, but you can make fried dough twists and fried dough sticks all the time.

Chen Yan helped to clean up the things and even squatted in the kitchen to wash the dishes...

Su Wei was so moved that she almost cried. She hated washing dishes the most.

It was already evening when the two of them finished cleaning up.

Su Wei was like a spinning top. She started poking Qin Yu's monkey again. The Q version of the monkey was very cute. Su Wei asked Chen Yan to look at it, but Chen Yan actually didn't want to look at it. He felt that Qin Yu was as annoying as the monkey that was his zodiac sign.

But……

"Not bad." Chen Yan really couldn't say against his conscience that the monkey did a bad job.

Su Wei said, "Thirty coins."

Chen Yan opened his mouth and suddenly felt that it was nothing to give one to Qin Yu. After all, it was only thirty cents, which was enough to buy two pounds of meat. It was really rare to find such a sucker.

And his lamb was given to him by Su Wei.

There is only one word difference between "sell" and "give away", but the difference leads to countless different meanings.

suddenly see the light.

Su Wei found that Chen Yan's mood suddenly improved, as warm as the spring breeze in March.

She really didn't understand Chen Yan. A man's heart was really hard to guess.

The village was very quiet during the period before the New Year. Butcher Zhang slaughtered another pig. Liu Laosi looked at Su Wei expectantly, his eyes shining, waiting for Su Wei to buy the pig offal.

He had bought pig offal from somewhere else once and wanted to try making it himself. He washed the pig intestines very cleanly, but the taste was not the same and it was not tasty no matter how he cooked it.

Under everyone's gaze, Su Wei walked to the pork stall, cut a few pounds of fat and lean meat, and bought half a rack of ribs.

Although spare ribs are delicious, they are expensive and contain little meat, so few people buy them normally. Now that Su Wei is rich, she is very greedy and just buys half a rib. The rest can be saved for the New Year.

The second son of Zhang the butcher cut the meat swiftly and even asked considerately if he wanted the ribs chopped into pieces.

Su Wei nodded hurriedly: "Yes."

Zhang Laoer chopped the ribs skillfully, and he also thoughtfully helped to separate the pork and the pig skin.

Some people around couldn't stand it anymore and said sourly, "Zhang's second son, I want to cut my meat too."

Zhang Laoer glanced at the man and said coldly, "Go home and cut it yourself. What are you talking to me about?"

The man blushed with anger.

The people around laughed.

Su Wei walked out of the crowd with the meat helplessly, and then saw Chen Yan.

Chen Yan was leaning on a cane, looking particularly frail in the cold wind. There were so many people around, but Su Wei spotted him immediately.

She walked over quickly.

"Why are you here?"

"I'll come out and take a look."

Chen Yan wanted to take the meat from her hand, but Su Wei refused: "Let me do it."

It's still some distance from here to the Shen family. Su Wei looked at the two shadows side by side in front of her and felt a little strange. She had never thought that there would be a day when she and Shen Yan would walk so peacefully on the country road.

Su Wei said for fun, "Later... let's go back and stew the ribs. My braised ribs are delicious."

"kindness…"
