Mrs. Tao looked at her with an expression that said, "I know everything, don't be embarrassed."

"Xiao Li, you don't have to be embarrassed. Your sister-in-law is also a woman. This morning, Captain Gu came to our house to borrow nails, saying that the bed collapsed. If he hadn't been so naughty, how could the bed collapse?"

Li Xia: “…”

She also wanted to know why the bed suddenly collapsed!

But obviously no matter how she explained, Mrs. Tao would not believe that nothing happened between her and Gu Weicheng last night.

Moreover, she and Gu Weicheng are now husband and wife, and it is normal for a couple to have sex. If she keeps denying it, it will make people doubt whether there is something wrong with her relationship with Gu Weicheng.

So Li Xia simply agreed with what Sister Tao said.

Following Sister Tao's words, he said, "Okay, sister-in-law, I understand. I will tell Weicheng."

She told him to make sure to nail the bed board firmly, as she didn't want to experience this kind of socially fatal moment again!

Fortunately, after Li Xia followed what Sister Tao said, Sister Tao stopped talking to her about this topic.

When I arrived at the supply and marketing cooperative, there were really a lot of people buying vegetables, but most of those buying meat were military families. Now you need money and tickets to buy meat, and except for military families and workers who can afford it, the farmers nearby can only eat meat once in a while.

"I want to buy five kilograms of meat." Li Xia said.

She was thinking that there was a dinner party at home today, and there were about ten people including the three members of her family. If she bought too little meat, it would be embarrassing if some people couldn't get any.

Unexpectedly, as soon as she finished speaking, she felt many pairs of eyes looking at her.

The butcher immediately said, "What a fool you are, comrade! There is only a small amount of meat, and you bought it all. Doesn't anyone else need to buy any?"

Mrs. Tao said beside her:

"Xiao Li, you don't need to buy so much meat. Nowadays, everyone's financial situation is average. Treating guests to a warm house is just a token of appreciation. There's no need for big fish and meat. At that time, our family only bought a little over a pound of meat for the treat."

Then he said to the butcher, "Cut me half a pound of meat, and make sure it's a little fatter."

Li Xia said: "Then cut me two pounds of meat."

"Okay." The aunt said nothing this time. It seemed that each person could only buy two kilograms of meat at most.

Although the aunt's attitude was ordinary, she was very good at cutting meat. The two pieces of meat she cut for Li Xia and Mrs. Tao weighed half a catty and two catties respectively, both just right, not one or two catties more or less!

There were no plastic bags at that time, and things were all carried by the body with a rope.

When the aunt handed the meat to Li Xia, she looked at her and said, "Are you military dependents?"

"Yes." Li Xia nodded.

"It's better to be a military family member. They have money and money. I also want my daughter to marry a soldier. You can help introduce them to each other when the time comes." The sister-in-law smiled and pointed to the pig offal she had hidden.

"Do you want this? It's very popular. I was planning to buy it myself, but if you are willing to help me introduce it, I will give it to you. If it works out, I will also give you a big red envelope for being a matchmaker."

In many period novels and farming novels that Li Xia has read, pig offal is described as something that no one wants, but the fact is just the opposite: pig offal is very popular.

You know, there is only one set of offal from each pig, and the price is cheaper than meat. The cheap price alone is very attractive, isn't it?

Some people who cannot afford pork will try to buy some pork offal to improve their meals. How can it be something that everyone dislikes, waiting for the heroine to pick up the bargain?

This is something that everyone is scrambling to get. Ordinary people can't buy it. Only those who work in the supply and marketing cooperatives and have connections can buy it.

Others' food is not tasty, only the heroine can make real delicious food, it's too ridiculous...

A serving of braised pork intestines at a state-owned restaurant is not cheap, and the taste is very good.

But introducing a date to my aunt's daughter...

Li Xia didn't dare to agree. She had just been in the army not long ago and didn't know many people yet. What if the introduction was not good? It would be bad to take advantage of others for nothing.

Mrs. Tao's eyes lit up and she said immediately, "Okay, I'll take care of it. But your daughter can't be ugly and has to have good character, otherwise I can't guarantee that this will succeed."

"I wouldn't say my daughter is very pretty, but she's definitely not ugly. She's 20 years old and has been on a blind date recently. If it's okay, you can take this pig offal away today. I'll bring her here another day and let you take a look. If you think she's ok, then I'll introduce her to you. If you don't like her, then I'll give this pig offal to you for free." The auntie immediately patted her chest and made the promise.

Although the aunt is old, it is not difficult to tell from her appearance that she was pretty when she was young, so I guess her daughter is also pretty good-looking.

"Okay, that's settled then."

The matter was settled, but Li Xia was still confused until the pig offal was stuffed into her hands.

"Sister-in-law, this is what I agreed to. Is it okay?"

Mrs. Tao said, "It's okay. There are so many young men in the army who don't have a girlfriend. Last time, someone asked me to introduce him to a girl. I was just worried that I couldn't find a suitable girl to introduce to. Now it's just right. I can get some pig offal for free.

Aren't you worried about not having enough meat? If you roast this pig's offal, it will be enough."
