Miao Xianghua was so shocked that he didn't even notice how loud his voice was.
Jiang Manyue gestured to her to keep quiet, "Mom, please keep your voice down, I'm afraid others won't hear you!"
Miao Xianghua reacted and quickly looked around, then asked in a low voice, "Where did you get all these things from?"
Jiang Manyue also answered in a low voice, "I went to the black market in the county and bought it from the black market."
Miao Xianghua was so shocked that his jaw dropped. "What? You went to the black market? How dare you!"
Jiang Manyue pushed her towards the kitchen and said, "Isn't the black market for people to go to? Don't worry, Mom. I'm very careful. As long as you don't tell anyone, no one else will know."
Miao Xianghua was still a little timid. Although she usually looked so domineering, she was actually very afraid of doing things that were strictly prohibited by her superiors.
"Oh, Mom, we can hide and eat at home, who would know? But we have to finish these quickly, otherwise if people see that we have so many good things at home, they might think too much."
Jiang Manyue began to coax Miao Xianghua into steaming and eating all the sausages and bacon.
Miao Xianghua looked at the large basket of sausages, bacon, and several canned meats that she had only heard of but never eaten, and she felt reluctant to part with them.
In her opinion, with so much meat, if you eat it slowly until the end of summer harvest, how could you eat it all at once? Who can eat meat like this?
Jiang Manyue knew that she was thinking of saving them for later, so she said directly, "Mom, I got all of this from the black market. You can keep it and eat it slowly, but if someone sees it, I'll be in big trouble. Can you just watch your daughter get taken away?"
Miao Xianghua was scared when she heard this. What if she stayed and ate slowly, and was discovered, causing Jiang Manyue to be in trouble? Wouldn't she regret it to death?
"Next time, you are not allowed to go to the black market again. If someone finds out, not only you, but also Lu Lin in the army will be affected, don't you understand?"
Miao Xianghua finally decided to quickly finish off the meat, but he was afraid that Jiang Manyue would get a taste of it and go to the black market to buy things, so he repeatedly asked her not to buy it.
How could Jiang Manyue listen to her? She agreed with her mouth, but she was thinking in her heart, since she always asked first and asked later, once she got the things back, would Miao Xianghua still let her return them?
Seeing that she agreed, Miao Xianghua felt a little relieved. He took the basket, took out some meat, and hung the basket on the kitchen beam.
"We can't finish this much meat in one meal, but it should last for three days, right?"
There was indeed a bit too much meat and it couldn't be finished in one meal. Moreover, Jiang Manyue originally thought that she could finish it in two or three days. Miao Xianghua's suggestion of eating it in three days was exactly what she wanted.
"You stay for dinner tonight. I'll steam a bowl of sausage and bacon, and also steam two cans of food. Let's try what these cans taste like."
Miao Xianghua couldn't help grinning as he looked at the meat in his hand. This meat was so good, with such big pieces of fat, it would definitely make your mouth full of oil and smell so delicious.
Jiang Manyue nodded and said, "Mom, I'll bring Jun'an to eat with us tonight. I've told my mother-in-law about it, and she gave me a few tickets and asked me to bring them to you."
Jiang Manyue took out a few tickets given by Li Guifen and took out ten yuan. "Mom, here are the tickets. Here is another ten yuan. Take them together."
Miao Xianghua was a little unhappy. "Just bring the child here to eat. How much can a child of Jun'an's age eat? You brought so many things here, why do you still have to pay? What do you think of your mother?"
Jiang Manyue quickly explained, "No, Mom, I'm not giving it to you because I brought Jun'an to dinner. I just thought that there are a lot of people in our family and the expenses are high. I just happened to have some extra money on hand, so I gave it to you to spend first."
After saying that, Jiang Manyue leaned on Miao Xianghua's shoulder and acted coquettishly, "Mom, don't you want to live with me? I'm giving you ten yuan now, and you're not happy about it. If I give you one thousand or ten thousand yuan in the future, won't you be angry with me?"
Miao Xianghua was amused by her. "That's nonsense. 1,000 yuan, 10,000 yuan. Do you know how much that is?"
Jiang Manyue didn't argue with her, just leaned against her and acted coquettishly, "Then I don't care, just take the money. My mother-in-law said that we have a big family and life is not easy. It's even harder for you to manage the household. Even if I don't give to others, I have to give to my own mother, don't you think?"
Miao Xianghua felt very happy when she heard her say that. She thought that the girl she gave birth to was really caring for her mother and never forgot her mother when good things happened. It was worth it that she loved her so much.
"You're just sweet-talking." Miao Xianghua patted Jiang Manyue gently, "Then Mom will take it. If you need money, just come to me."
Jiang Manyue smiled happily, "I'm not short of money. My mother-in-law is very generous. She even gave you the bills. Every time Lu Lin sends his allowance back, my mother-in-law always gives me her share."
Miao Xianghua also smiled when he heard this. "As long as you live well in the Lu family, I'm glad. But I tell you, you still have to have a baby soon, otherwise you..."
When Jiang Manyue heard this topic, she couldn't bear to listen anymore and ran out, shouting, "Mom, make dinner first. I'm going to find Jun'an and the others."
She ran so fast that she was out of the yard in no time. Miao Xianghua had no choice but to shut up.
Jiang Manyue escaped from the courtyard, but she didn't know where Lu Junan and the others had gone to play, so she had to wait near the Lu family's gate.
When Jiang Hong and his friends took Jun'an out to play, they would usually send Jun'an home first, and then go home together for dinner, so she just had to wait at the door of the Lu family.
After a while, Jiang Manyue saw Jiang Hong and the others coming with Lu Jun'an.
"Aunt? Why are you waiting here?"
Jiang Cheng had the sharpest eyes and immediately spotted Jiang Manyue standing at the corner.
Jiang Manyue patted Jiang Cheng's head and said, "I'm waiting for you. Jun'an is having dinner at our house tonight. Your grandma is making delicious food at home. Come back quickly."
Jiang Cheng and the others were very happy to hear this, firstly because they could have dinner at home with their friends, and secondly because their aunt said the food at home was delicious.
"Come on, Jun'an, let's go back to my house for dinner. My grandma's cooking is so delicious!"
Jiang Hong put his arm around Lu Jun'an's shoulders and took him home with a smile.
Lu Jun'an responded to him seriously, "Of course it smells good. My aunt's cooking is delicious. She must have learned it from Grandma Jiang."
Jiang Hong had never eaten the food cooked by Jiang Manyue, but that didn't stop him from agreeing with Lu Junan's point of view. The two quickly reached a consensus and went home happily.
As soon as they entered the door, the Jiang brothers couldn't help but look into the kitchen, wanting to see what delicious food grandma had prepared today.
