The two of them quickly caught the two pheasants.

Tang Shiyan smiled slightly: "Jinnian, we can just stew one and eat it now, and stew the other one in the evening so that we can send it to grandpa and grandma."

"Yeah, Yanyan, it's great to have you. Whenever there's something delicious, you always think of my family."

"Haha, they are your family, so of course I have to treat them well. Let's go give them a surprise tonight. They have missed you so much after not seeing you for so long."

"Okay Yanyan, thank you for helping me take care of my family during this time."

"Don't be so polite, hurry up and cook, otherwise the kang chef and the others will definitely be hungry."

One person made the fire and the other cooked, and soon the food was on the table. Xia Jinnian went to the room and called Master Pankang and his three brothers to come out for dinner.

Several people came over and sat down around. At this time, they were smart enough not to call Tang Shiyan "Sister-in-law" in front of the kang-making master, but called her Comrade Tang.

Zhou Jinrui: "Comrade Tang, did you just catch this pheasant in the mountains? It looks very fresh and must be delicious."

"Comrade Zhou, yes, I caught these just now when I went to the mountains to collect grass for pigs. They may have caught them today because they knew that your life in the army is very poor."

"So I encountered them not long after I entered the mountains. Under normal circumstances, such a good thing would never happen."

"Hehe, it seems that God still favors us. He knows that we have a hard time and poor living conditions in the army, so he gave us a pheasant to compensate us."

"Well, then, comrades, hurry up and eat. It won't taste good if it gets cold."

"Okay, thank you, Comrade Tang. You should sit down and eat quickly. You must be hungry after being busy for so long."

Tang Shiyan also sat down, next to the kang master and Xia Jinnian.

Lin Ronghua: "Girl Tang, the food you cook is so delicious, especially the pheasant soup, it's so fresh and delicious. It really is true that food cooked by young people is delicious."

"I wish your aunt's cooking was half as delicious as yours."

"Uncle Lin, you can't say that. Be careful or I'll go to Auntie and complain that you dislike the food she cooks. Let's see how she'll deal with you."

"Haha, Tang girl, I was just joking with you. I've been married to your aunt for more than 20 years. How could I dislike her?"

"That's good, Uncle Lin. If you think it tastes good, then you can eat more. Especially drink more of this chicken soup. I stewed it with ginseng, which is a good ingredient for nourishing the body."

"Okay, girl Tang."

Several people were talking and laughing, and the meal took almost forty minutes to finish.

After Lin Ronghua finished his meal, he sat down to rest for a while and then went to his room to lie on the kang. Zhou Jinrui, Su Chengyuan and Feng Shuhuai were tactful enough to start clearing the dishes and cleaning after finishing their meal.

Xia Jinnian also followed the kang-making master Lin Ronghua to make the kang. The sooner they finished, the sooner they could clean the room.

Tang Shiyan packed another large sack of medicinal herbs and tied it to her bicycle, then rode to the town. She had to go to the town to buy some meat and vegetables.

Without a few grown men, there would not be enough to eat. Besides, they also gave her living expenses. If her life was too poor, it would seem that she was stingy.

The roads in this era are full of potholes. Fortunately, Tang Shiyan has good cycling skills. If she didn't, she would have fallen down with such a big bag of medicinal herbs tied to the back and swinging around.

After riding for about an hour, they arrived at the medicinal herb shop. The shop owner Cheng Jianhua saw that it was Tang Shiyan who came, and she was carrying such a big bag of medicinal herbs.

Cheng Jianhua: "Girl Tang, have you picked all the herbs on the mountain? Every once in a while, bring a big sack to sell."

"Haha, Uncle Cheng, it's not as amazing as you say. There are so many mountains in the village, how can I pick them all? I still have to go to work."

"It's just that I work very fast and can quickly complete the work points. When I have completed the work points, I will do other things."

"You're really working too hard, little girl. After finishing your work, you still have to go out to look for herbs. How many people are as hardworking as you? You've earned so much money at such a young age."

"Uncle Cheng, I have no choice. If I don't fight, I won't have anything to eat. In this day and age, if you don't pay attention, you won't have any food to eat."

"I don't want to starve, and I don't want the whole village to laugh at me and say I can't even support myself."

"Okay, Uncle Cheng, let's stop talking about this. Hurry up and take a look at my herbs and help me weigh them and calculate the bill. I still have to go to the supply and marketing cooperative."

"Okay, Miss Tang, wait a moment, I'll help you weigh the herbs and calculate the bill right away."

Cheng Jianhua distributed the herbs while weighing them. It took him more than ten minutes to weigh all the herbs and calculate the amount.

"Girl Tang, the herbs you have this time are not precious, so they can only be sold for 2,130 yuan."

"Okay, Uncle Cheng, I know I didn't find any good herbs this time, so it's good that I can sell them for this much money."

Cheng Jianhua took out some money from his pocket, counted out two thousand one hundred and thirty yuan, and handed it to Tang Shiyan.

"Tang girl, count it and see if it's that much." Tang Shiyan took the money and counted it. "Uncle Cheng, it's right."

"Uncle Cheng, I'll be leaving first. You can take your time."

"Okay, Tang girl, take care."

Tang Shiyan rode her bicycle quickly to the supply and marketing cooperative and went directly to the meat shop. She looked at the meat and found that the quality was pretty good.

She bought a few pounds of ribs, a few pounds of pork belly, a pig's foot, two fish, a few pounds of beef, and lamb chops.

Although she has everything in her space, it is not visible. If she wants to take it, she has to take it when those people are not around. If she takes it in front of them, she will be exposed.

Since we are already in town, we might as well buy some more to take back. It won’t last long for so many people.

After buying the meat, I went to buy various vegetables and fruits, several full bags. If I returned to the village and the aunts saw them, they would be jealous.

After buying it, I carried it out of the supply and marketing cooperative, tied it to the bicycle, got on the bicycle and rode back to the village.

The people in the supply and marketing cooperative were so envious when they saw that she always bought things in large bags and paid without blinking an eye.

She always felt that the way back was very fast and she arrived home in a short while. In fact, it was a psychological effect and the feeling was almost the same both ways.

When she returned home and parked her bicycle at the door, Xia Jinnian and his brothers saw that she had brought back so much meat, vegetables and fruits.

They all stood up hurriedly to help carry the things into the house. At this time, the kang-making master had already made the kang and walked out of the room.

"Girl Tang, are you going to town? And you bought so many vegetables."

"Yes, Uncle Lin, don't we have Comrade Xia and the others? If there's not enough food, it won't be enough. Besides, they gave me living expenses, so I can't let them eat porridge and wild vegetables."
