Tian Tian bought these apples by luck last time. When he was visiting the supply and marketing cooperative last time, the apples happened to be delivered. Because it was a sudden thing, he did not tell everyone in advance.
Tian Tian, who happened to be shopping there, enjoyed herself and bought a big bag of apples.
"There's no rush for this. I can buy it when it's available. Anyway, I don't really want to eat it right now!"
Tian Tian opened the refrigerator while biting an apple. Apart from a plate of leftovers from tonight, there were also some useless vegetables that Gu Xingshu had bought today. There were not many of them and they were placed in a corner of the refrigerator, making the room look quite empty.
As for the freezer, there was nothing there.
Tian Tian looked at the refrigerator and felt a little displeased. Tian Tian, who was a bit of a hoarder, wanted to fill the refrigerator up immediately.
"Let's go buy some things when we come back from home tomorrow. My refrigerator feels empty. It's just plugged in but we don't put anything in it. Isn't it a waste of electricity?" Tian Tian said.
Before, every time she went shopping, she didn’t dare to buy too much because she didn’t have a refrigerator to store the things and was afraid that they would go bad and be wasted. Now that she has a refrigerator, Tian Tian can finally shop without any worries.
"Okay, but then we both have to leave early tomorrow. If we come back too late, we won't be able to buy anything!"
Gu Zhao agreed immediately. He also thought that the refrigerator was bought for use. Before, he didn't dare to buy too many things. The person who was really in charge of cooking at home couldn't really use his cooking skills. Now that he had a refrigerator to store more things, Gu Zhao was willing to buy more. At least he wouldn't be unable to find what he needed when he wanted to cook something.
"Let's go to the supply and marketing cooperative to buy some eggs first. Now that we have a refrigerator, we can put the eggs in the refrigerator. Then buy some persimmons and some leeks. Don't you like leek boxes? I'll make some for you and put them in the refrigerator. Buy more coriander. With a refrigerator, the coriander can be kept fresh longer." Gu Zhao made a list of the things he wanted to buy one by one.
Gu Zhao looked at the things on the list and felt a little distressed. There were many things he wanted to buy, but the weather was getting cold soon, and there weren't actually that many things for him to choose from. The only things he could eat in winter were radishes, cabbages, potatoes and the like.
But these three things don't need to be stored in the refrigerator. They can be kept outside at room temperature. Putting them in the refrigerator takes up space.
Finally, Gu Zhao sighed helplessly, "Actually there's nothing to buy. I'll buy you some more fruit and put it in the refrigerator when the time comes!"
You can't buy much vegetables, but you can still buy more fruits. Especially now is the season for fruits. You can buy more apples, Nanguo pears, apple pears, hawthorns, and oranges and put them in the refrigerator.
It's just that the freezer of this refrigerator is still somewhat useless now. The weather is going to get cold soon, with temperatures dropping to minus 20 to 30 degrees Celsius. The outside will be like a natural big refrigerator, and if you want to freeze anything, you can just throw it outside.
Tian Tian nodded with a smile and comforted Gu Zhao casually, "It will be fine in the summer. Eggplants, peppers, potatoes, and beans will all be harvested in the summer. You will have a lot to do then. You can fill up our refrigerator."
Gu Zhao shook his head, tore off the list, put it in his pocket, and decided to buy all the items on the list one by one tomorrow.
"Can you make some chili sauce? I'm craving for it." Tian Tian leaned close to Gu Zhao and asked while smacking her lips.
She didn't know what was wrong with her. She was quite normal before she found out she was pregnant. But after she found out she was pregnant, she became a little greedy and wanted to eat everything.
The chili sauce she was talking about is what most people can make now. Use the newly harvested chilies in autumn and garlic together, add a little bean paste, without adding a drop of water, put them in a pot and boil them, add a lethal amount of sugar and vinegar, and the chili sauce will be sour, sweet and spicy, and it is especially delicious when eaten with noodles.
Tian Tian especially likes to eat chili sauce. When the chilies are ripe in autumn, old lady Tian will make it at home. After making it, she will share some with Tian Tian's family and some with her second uncle's family. The whole family will quickly eat up the chili sauce.
It’s a pity that although the chili sauce tastes good, its shelf life is very short, and they have nothing to preserve the chili sauce in the fall, so they can only eat it at that time.
It's past that time, and there's nothing you can do even if you're greedy.
This year, Grandma Tian also made a pot of chili sauce and sent a bottle to Tian Tian. Tian Tian would put some of it into her rice when she ate. She ate it in two days and still didn't have enough.
Now that there is a refrigerator at home, the chili sauce can be stored in the refrigerator. Tian Tian can't wait to make a big pot of chili sauce right now so that she can eat chili sauce every day in the future.
"But there are no peppers now!" Gu Zhao looked at the list with some embarrassment. It was already winter, and the pepper seedlings should have been pulled out long ago. If not, the remaining peppers would be rarely available, and all those sold in the market would be consumed by the family.
"Let's go to the vegetable market tomorrow and take a look. If there are any peppers, I will buy some and cook for you. But you can't eat too much. Eating peppers can easily cause you to get a sore throat. Have you forgotten that you had blisters on your mouth before?" Gu Zhao reminded.
That was when the two of them were still in the brigade. Old Mrs. Tian had just made a pot of chili sauce, and Tian Tian treated it as a snack. When she had nothing to do, she would go over and scoop a spoonful to eat.
Although it tasted sour and sweet, it was all made of chili peppers and garlic, which were very spicy. Tian Tian felt very irritated eating this and soon blisters appeared all over her mouth. She was so scared that she couldn't even open her mouth, let alone eat. Opening her mouth would tear the wound and it was very painful.
And because there was a circle of blisters on her mouth, when pus and scabs formed, it looked particularly disgusting. Tian Tian herself felt disgusted. But for some reason, Tian Tian always met Gu Zhao at that time. She went to see Gu Zhao with that expression on her face. Every time they met, Tian Tian tried to block him, for fear that Gu Zhao would see the wound on her mouth.
Fortunately, Gu Zhao didn't react, and Tian Tian thought he didn't see it.
Unexpectedly, at this time, Gu Zhao brought up that matter, and since Gu Zhao said this, it was obvious that he also saw Tian Tian's sour mouth at that time.
Tian Tian felt angry and ashamed at the same time. Her face turned red with anger. She was furious and said to Gu Zhao, "Forget about this matter right now! Forget it!"
