Su He returned home and unpacked the package while telling her mother-in-law the gossip she had heard.
When I opened it, it was full of dried seafood, including several large dried squids, small dried squids, and dried eels that seemed to have been squeezed apart. There was a big fish that was about two feet long, and there were also dried small yellow croakers, one two or three inches long. There was also a bag of dried yellow crucian carp and a bag of dried clam meat.
This bag of stuff weighs at least ten pounds. If the doctor doesn't leave home, his special supply will not be available at home. There are three children and two adults, and each of them has six taels of meat coupons per month. The whole family only has more than three pounds of meat coupons per month, which can only buy this much meat. The children have been craving for it for a long time. With these dried seafood, they can also have real meat dishes!
The whole family is very happy!
Teacher Wu praised the fish repeatedly: "When you fry this yellow crucian carp, you can smell it from miles away! This fish is oily and has many bones, so it's best fried!"
Su He nodded: "The small yellow croaker is also delicious when grilled, and the others can be cooked."
㟧䲻: "Mom, can we have fish tonight?"
Su He: "Tonight we'll roast some small yellow croaker for you. Mom will make the dough tonight and we'll make steamed buns tomorrow. Then we'll fry the fish and eat them with the steamed buns. That's so delicious!"
The eldest brother was delighted and teased his younger brother: "It smells so good that it will make your tongue fall off!"
㟧䲻: "Brother's tongue smells so good!"
Xiaobao also joined in the fun: "My two brothers' tongues smell so good!" As she spoke, she stretched out a finger!
㟧䲻: "Two brothers, it's two fingers! So stupid!"
…
Su He squeezed the inner layer of the last package, realized it was a letter, and took it out.
The letter was written by Su Hong.
In the letter, Su Hong talked about some changes in the Su family. Su Yi got a stable job in the commune, and his parents were very happy!
Not only that, after hearing this, Grandpa Su decided to come and live with them. He used to live in his fifth uncle's house for retirement.
During the Anti-Japanese War, Grandpa Su delivered letters to the underground party. After liberation, he was too old to be assigned any work, so he was given a special subsidy of 16 yuan a month, which was a special pension.
So Grandpa Su is almost eighty years old now, and his five sons are vying to raise him, but he prefers his youngest son and is willing to live with him.
Now when the old man heard that Su Yi from the old family had become successful, he changed his mind and insisted on moving to live with his eldest son, Su He's mother's family.
Later, everyone in the family knew that Su Yi's job was arranged by Su He's son-in-law. Grandpa Su took charge and took out some dry goods from each of his sons' homes and sent this package.
The farmers in the seaside fishing village actually have no shortage of these things, but these things, like the grain, can be exchanged for money. Besides, they are all salted and dried, so they are not willing to give them away for free.
Su Hong said in the letter that if her uncles wrote to her in the future and asked Su He for help, she should ignore them. The cheapest clam meat and small yellow croaker were collected from the four families. It goes without saying that the rest of the expensive things were given by her mother's family.
