The Clever Wife of the 1960s

Reborn from the apocalypse and returning to a peaceful era a thousand years earlier, Chen Rou even gained a spatial dimension. Although it was only a mere five cubic meters, Chen Rou was already co...

Chapter 23 (2)

This wild boar costs more than 40 yuan.

There were quite a few pheasants and rabbits, almost eight yuan, which together amounted to more than fifty yuan.

With the money and a piece of meat, Han Guobin went home.

He was too tired, so he walked home slowly. It was almost six o'clock when he got home. People in the village saw him going home.

When Han Guobin returned home, Chen Rou had already prepared hot water, not only hot water, but also hot millet porridge.

Seeing him come back so tired, Chen Rou really couldn't bear to let him go, so she said, "Hurry up and wash up, then eat and go to rest."

Han Guobin was indeed tired, so he nodded and said nothing.

After brushing his teeth and washing his face, he went to drink porridge. Chen Rou cut some of the meat he brought back and fried it, used the oil to make eggs for him, and then used the meat to stir-fry bean sprouts.

Han Guobin was really hungry and ate a lot in a hurry.

After he finished eating, he didn't have to worry about anything, so Chen Rou sent him into the house to sleep.

When Mrs. Han heard the news, she came over soon and wanted to ask if he had made any money.

Chen Rou happened to be in the kitchen and said, "Change this piece of meat for me to eat."

Mrs. Han came in to look at the meat. The piece of meat was not small, so she cut a few pieces and fried them with oil and eggs for Han Guobin to eat. There was still about two kilograms left.

Seeing this piece of meat, Han Dasao couldn't help but said, "You really dare to eat it!"

She really thought that she would make a lot of money, otherwise why would she be willing to buy such a big piece of meat? But at the same time, I couldn’t help but wonder, if I eat like this, how much money can I save even if I make money?

"When you're pregnant, you have to be willing to give up," Chen Rou said.

In fact, she was reluctant to do so. She still had a lot of meat in her space, so there was no need to buy so much. But since her husband Guobin bought it, she wouldn't say anything.

"Sister-in-law, do you want it? If you do, I can cut a piece for you and charge you according to the market price." Thinking of this, Chen Rou asked Sister-in-law Han.

How could Mrs. Han be willing to spend money to cut her own flesh? It would be almost the same as cutting her own flesh.

After a while she went back.

Chen Rou took the opportunity to cut out another pound from the space.

The team is about to start work, and Han Guobin will have to go out with a hoe tomorrow. He will be busy from now on, so how can he not eat meat?

The pound of meat that was cut was all pork belly, which she cut and fried. It was delicious and she could just put it in a large bowl and eat it slowly.

She started kneading the dough again and made corn buns for her husband Guobin at noon.

When Han Guobin came back, many people in the village saw him and smelled the meat coming from the house.

The New Year has passed, and every household has saved a lot of lard from the last pig slaughter. However, this has to last until the next time the meat is distributed, so I really can't bear to eat it.

Zhou Zhen came over from next door.

When Chen Rou heard people in the village saying that their family had earned money to buy meat, she said, "We did buy some meat to eat."

"You have to be frugal. I see you two are really willing to spend a lot." Zhou Zhen said.

You live right next door, how could you not know about the fragrance coming from here a while ago? And Han Guobin also sent a fish to the Ma family.

"From now on, when I go to work, I won't be able to eat even if I want to," said Chen Rou.

Zhou Zhen stayed for a while and then went back because she still had to do laundry.

Han Guobin slept until noon, but he still didn't get enough sleep. It was Chen Rou who prepared the meal and called him to eat it while it was hot.

The corn buns were served with an egg drop soup and a potato stew.

Han Guobin got up and drank a glass of water, then had lunch with his wife. After a full lunch and a good sleep, he felt relaxed.

He took out his cotton jacket and started to take out money. After deducting the money for cutting the meat, he brought back fifty-two dollars this time.

Looking at his wife's wide eyes, Han Guobin smiled and said, "I made a little more money by killing a wild boar."

At least it was not in vain that I went into the mountains these days and met one.

"I haven't given Gao Zheng his yet." Han Guobin remembered and said.

"How much?" Chen Rou asked.

"Five dollars." Han Guobin said.

"Okay?" Chen Rou looked at him in surprise. She thought he would have to give her ten dollars no matter what.

"Five dollars is enough." Han Guobin said.

Gao Zheng came at two o'clock in the afternoon. Han Guobin gave him five dollars, but Gao Zheng felt that it was a bit too much.

He didn't help at all with the wild boar throughout the whole journey, but it's not that he didn't help at all. He helped carry the wild boar for a while, and the rest was all up to Han Guobin by himself.

They shot some pheasants and rabbits, but Gao Zheng knew that if he could get two dollars from the kills, it would be a lot.

Now that he has five dollars, he feels embarrassed to take it.

The wild boar had nothing to do with him, so how could he get the remaining five dollars?

"Take it back, we'll go together again when we have the chance," said Han Guobin.

Although Gao Zheng felt embarrassed, seeing that his brother Bin was really willing to give it to him, he took it home. As for the matter of hunting the wild boar, he never revealed a word about it to anyone.

He didn't tell his parents, he just gave them three dollars and kept the remaining two dollars for himself.

His brother Bin said that he hid some private money and would give it to his wife after he got married, and his wife would be very happy.

During these days, Gao Zheng saved a few dollars of his own pocket money and gave his parents about eight dollars to pay off the debt. By the end of the year, the money would be divided equally and he would be able to pay it off almost completely.

Then you can prepare to get married.

Chen Rou was also taking stock of her own wealth. Although she had spent some money, it was not much, and she had indeed earned a lot.

At present, the family’s savings have barely reached 400 yuan, which is still a little short of building a brick house, but it’s okay, it’s no problem to live here for the time being.
