Jiang Yuzhu and Xu Lei followed them back to the county town.

"Sister-in-law, you want to buy some suet, right? I know a place where you can buy as much as you want."

Zhu Mingxun brought Xu Lei and Jiang Yuzhu to the slaughterhouse.

"Old Huang, do you have any lard? My sister-in-law wants to buy some."

"Hey, Old Zhu, yes, yes, yes. Even if I don't have it, I will make it for you. We are friends." Old Huang from the slaughterhouse is a veteran here and has a very high status.

"Who are these two?"

"Let me introduce you. This is my brother Xu Lei, who was in the same trench with me. I didn't have the ability and retired from the army, but my brother is different. He has a bright future."

"This is my brother's wife. She's a great cook. She made us some braised beans and noodles for lunch today. It was so delicious!"

"Haha, since you are my brother, then you can find me, Old Huang, if you need anything in the future."

"You're welcome, sister-in-law."

Old Huang looked like a man of blood and a bit fierce. He was afraid that Jiang Yuzhu would be scared by him, so he tried to soften his tone.

"Since Brother Huang has spoken, I won't be polite."

"Brother Huang, have a cigarette." Xu Lei took out a box of Zhonghua cigarettes and stuffed it into Old Huang's hand.

"Oh, that won't do. These cigarettes are so expensive!" Old Huang took a look and was surprised to see that it was a whole box of Zhonghua cigarettes. This guy was really generous.

Xu Lei was naturally doing this for his wife.

My wife is greedy, and now that we have this channel to buy meat, we naturally have to take good care of it.

Feelings are developed through interactions.

Lao Zhu is an old acquaintance of his, but he is not.

They are doing this for Mr. Zhu's sake, but they cannot be ignorant.

"Old Huang, keep it. Your sister-in-law will trouble you a lot in the future." Zhu Mingxun obviously knew what Xu Lei meant.

He was happy to help.

When Old Huang heard what Zhu Mingxun said, he put the cigarette in his pocket and said, "Okay, come to me if you have any problems in the future."

It's a mutually beneficial thing, so why not do it?

"Come on, I'll get you some oil paintings. I happen to have two here that I was planning to take home. Since you want them, take them. I'll get more tomorrow."

Old Huang took out two oil paintings for them.

"How is it? Is it fatty enough?" Old Huang proudly showed the lard to Xu Lei and Jiang Yuzhu.

He picked the lard from the two fattest pigs.

"Thank you so much, Brother Huang. It was originally meant for my sister-in-law, but now we've taken advantage of it. How much is it?"

Jiang Yuzhu's eyes lit up when she saw it.

Suddenly I want to eat buns stuffed with lard residue.

At this time, the pigs are not fed with fast feed, but with pig grass, sweet potato vines mixed with some wheat bran, and the pork is particularly fragrant.

The fat is also very thick, not the kind of thin fat.

The lard residue after oil extraction is particularly fragrant.

"Haha, it's nothing. My job is convenient, so I can keep it for later."

"This lard is thirty cents per pound. These two packs of lard are very heavy, weighing twelve pounds in total. Just give me the money for ten pounds." Lao Huang is not the kind of person who doesn't know how to handle things. He even gave him such expensive cigarettes.

"That won't do. I can't let Brother Huang lose money. Twelve pounds is three dollars and sixty cents."

Jiang Yuzhu directly handed the money and tickets to Lao Huang.

"Look, my sister-in-law..."

Jiang Yuzhu glanced at the pig's trotter in the corner and said, "Brother Huang, that pig's trotter..."

"You mean those pig's trotters? They're too skinny. No one likes to eat them. There are only eight left, and they're just piled up there."

Jiang Yuzhu looked at Old Huang and said, "Brother Huang, since no one likes it, please sell it to me."

"Hey, don't talk about selling or not, take all eight of them!" This stuff is only one cent per pound, and it's all bones and meat, and no one likes to eat it.

"Thank you, Brother Huang. I will bring you something delicious next time." Jiang Yuzhu didn't want to cut off this good channel for buying meat.

The supply in the city is limited in time and quantity. By the time she went to the county to buy meat, the day lily was already cold.

"Haha, okay."

In this way, Jiang Yuzhu got two sets of lard and eight pig's trotters.

Then I went to the supply and marketing cooperative and bought a lot of seasonings, including oil, salt, sauce, vinegar, sugar, pepper, aniseed, and cinnamon.

Xu Lei was happy when he saw Jiang Yuzhu's happy expression.

As long as it is something his wife wants, he will find a way to make it happen.

After the two of them finished shopping, Zhao Yi drove a tractor to take them back, otherwise they would have to carry so many things, which would be too heavy.

…

Not long after the two left, a lot of people gathered at the Xu family, all of whom came to visit the new toilet.

After hearing what the old lady next door said, everyone came over to take a look out of curiosity.

This is quite a novelty in the countryside.

The third son of the Xu family specially built a cement toilet for his wife who lived in the city. It was better than the house.

Everyone, please come and take a look.

"Mrs. Xu, what does your third son think? He spent so much money just to build a toilet for his wife."

"That's right. This thing is neither good for eating nor for wearing. I think it's just for having money to burn."

"With this cement, you might as well use it to cover the exterior walls of your house. It would look so impressive!"

"What a waste of things!"

Seeing that everyone's words were getting more and more unpleasant, Mrs. Xu couldn't stand it anymore and said, "I think you are just sour grapes."

"If my son wants to build a toilet, then he can. He has the ability to do it. If you can do it, where else can you build a toilet that's so upright?"

"Okay, you guys, you've finished looking, let's go." The old lady coaxed them.

Seeing these waves of troubles made her feel upset.

She also knew that this thing was neither enough to eat nor to wear, but the third brother's family built it with their own money, so what could she do?

This group of people are still making trouble here, it’s so annoying!

"Mrs. Xu, you're so petty. You're so angry already. We were just talking!"

Seeing that Mrs. Xu was angry, everyone stopped talking.

"Hey, can we all come to your house to use the restroom from now on? It would be a waste if we don't use such a nice restroom."

In fact, everyone is just jealous.

Who wouldn’t want to use such a good toilet?

"Oh, you're thinking about using my toilet already?"

"If I think your rice is good, can I come to your house for dinner?"

Jiang Yuzhu was originally very happy, but when she heard everyone say that they should all come here to use the toilet, she instantly exploded.

This isn't a public toilet.
