Chapter 50 What the hell is going on? How can you catch fish with nothing in your hands?
When Liu Chuxue heard her mother's question, she realized belatedly that she had done something stupid. She shouldn't have brought the bucket out in the open. This was something in the space. If someone who knew the value of the bucket saw it, she would be in trouble.
After all, this is a wooden barrel made of century-old rosewood, and it's not easy to explain to others.
I quickly changed the subject and said, "Didn't the doctor say that my father needed to eat something nutritious? We didn't have any meat coupons, so I thought about going to the moat to see if I could get some fish. Unexpectedly, I got lucky."
At this time, not only Liu's mother, but also the aunt who was accompanying the baby next door came over and said, "Oh my God, such a big fish."
Before Liu's mother could react, Ji Ganlan, who was following behind Chu Xue, smiled and said, "Sister, you have raised a good daughter who knows how to care for others."
Seeing her mother's bewildered face, Liu Chuxue hurriedly explained, "Mom, this aunt wants to exchange fish with us."
Ji Ganlan was anxious to take the fish back to make fish soup for his daughter-in-law, and hurriedly said, "Sister, this is what happened. My daughter-in-law just gave birth this morning, but she hasn't produced any milk. I was getting anxious and angry, and then I met your daughter.
The child is kind-hearted and agreed to let me use the meat coupons to exchange the fish with her. I was afraid that you as parents would be worried, so I came here with you to tell you something."
Liu's mother understood now that the man wanted to exchange the meat coupons for the fish for his daughter in order to make her daughter-in-law produce more milk. She felt a little embarrassed for a moment, because after all, she had to get the fish even though she had the meat coupons, which took some effort.
But after seeing the fish in the bucket, he was indeed shocked: "My daughter caught the fish, so she can make her own decision."
Ji Ganlan smiled even more happily this time: "I was just standing outside the delivery room worrying about my daughter-in-law this morning. When I saw the baby, I remembered that I had to make soup to increase my milk supply. Where was the fish to sell?"
Now that things have come to this, Liu Chuxue just went with the flow and said, "Aunt, you can take all the fish. I can get some meat coupons and give more to my father. I'll go to the moat again later. Who knows, I might be lucky enough to catch some fish."
Ji Ganlan was not unhappy at all, he took out a handful of tickets from his pocket, found the meat tickets of equivalent value, and also took out two industrial coupons: "Count them, those two industrial coupons are given to you by Auntie."
Her family was indeed not short of meat coupons. Ever since they knew their daughter-in-law was pregnant, the family had exchanged meat coupons with others whenever they had the chance. It was not a big deal to give out a few extras, but fresh black fish were not common.
Since we have a refrigerator at home, we don’t have to worry about not being able to store the food. We can use it to make soup for our daughter-in-law.
The reason why she gave two industrial certificates was because she felt that this family was very down-to-earth. She had just come in and saw the large coarse porcelain bowl on the bedside table. Anyway, everyone in the family had a job, and would receive a salary in proportion to their wages every month.
The little girl said that she wanted to share in the blessing of her grandson, and she liked to hear that.
After Liu Chuxue thanked him, he became worried. How should he get the fish?
Ji Ganlan knew what she was worried about: "I have a relative who works in the hospital cafeteria. I'll go to her and find a solution."
She had already thought about it. She would cut a portion and stew it when she got to the kitchen, and ask her son to take the rest home and put it in the refrigerator, which was not too far away anyway.
Liu Chuxue had her own plans, so she decided to be a good person and helped deliver the fish to the cafeteria. After coming out, she found a place to put the bucket back into the space.
Of course, I also thought about how to deal with her mother in advance.
When I returned to the ward, family members had already brought me food.
When Liu's mother saw her daughter coming back, she pulled her over worriedly and asked, "What happened today? How did you catch a fish with nothing in your hands?"
