The large refrigerator in Yu Li's house shocked everyone in the compound.

Nowadays, most people earn only a few dozen yuan a month, but this refrigerator costs more than three yuan!

That is something that ordinary people cannot afford or even think about.

Although everyone knows that Yu Li has run several businesses, each of which is doing very well, so she makes so much money.

But they couldn't hide their envy, and they all went to Captain Lu's house in waves out of curiosity to see the big refrigerator.

"Oh my god, this refrigerator is so cool! It's really air-conditioned inside, just like winter!"

"Will the food really stay good if you put it in there? Sister Yu, are we leaving you with the food we can't finish? Otherwise, it will go bad if it gets hot overnight, especially fish and meat, which we only get to eat once, it would be a pity if they go bad!"

"Yes, yes, we didn't finish the chicken soup we made yesterday, so it's perfect to put it in the refrigerator!"

Everyone looked at Yu Li's expression cautiously.

In fact, Yu Li had considered this before buying the refrigerator. This refrigerator is a rare item, and it is very difficult to buy one in this era.

The family compound is a collective, and most people there are relatively simple and honest. They will help anyone who encounters any problem.

Borrowing eggs, borrowing clothes, etc. is very common.

But she had worked hard to earn money to buy this refrigerator, and she really didn't want to make things convenient for others and put herself in a difficult position.

So she smiled calmly: "Of course! But there are many sisters-in-law in our courtyard, and we can't put them all. We also have a lot of things of our own. Let's put it this way. In the future, we will keep half of the space for our own things, and the rest will be for the sisters-in-law's things. But the space is so small, it depends on the situation of our families in the future. In short, we are all family, and it is only right to help each other!"

It's good to play it once in a while. The sisters-in-law who came to watch nodded happily: "Of course! Sister-in-law Yu is generous and open-minded!"

That night, someone brought in their unfinished fried meat and put it in, and someone else put in half a fish. It didn't take long for the refrigerator to be full.

But most people who occupied Yu Li's refrigerator would say thank you, and some of them would even bring some leeks or something like that as a gift to Yu Li.

In the evening, Yu Li and her grandmother fried leeks and eggs for Lu Guanshan to eat with his wine.

He came back from training, sweating all over, his body was hot, he took a shower, sat down, and drank a sip of cold beer, how refreshing!

Lu Guanshan couldn't help but sigh comfortably: "Wife, I am purely benefiting from you."

Yu Li also wanted to eat ice, but she was a doctor and knew what cold meant to a pregnant woman, so she just tasted half a cup of ice soda and felt refreshed!

Even Grandma Lu praised it: "This refrigerator is great. When summer comes, I don't have to run to the grocery store to eat popsicles. This era is developing rapidly, and people are enjoying more and more happiness."

I wonder what new things will happen in a few decades? I am really curious and want to see. "

Seeing her grandmother's expectant eyes, Yu Li smiled and said, "Grandma, in the future, we will not only have refrigerators, but also air conditioners. This is already common in foreign countries. If you install an air conditioner in the house, you can control the temperature of the whole house with just one click. The temperature in the house can drop from over 30 degrees to more than 10 degrees."

Grandma Lu was surprised and said, "What? There really is such a thing? That's amazing! A fan can keep you cool, so why bother with air conditioning?"

When Yu Li thought about it from her grandmother's perspective, she was indeed impressed by the astonishing power of technology.

In a few decades, not only will air conditioners become popular, but also various advanced notebooks, computers, and mobile phones will be available. You can watch TV series online at any time, turn on the video when you miss your family, and even go shopping on the street without bringing cash. You can just take out your phone or face the device and scan it...

Lu Guanshan watched his wife and grandmother talking about what would happen in the future. He listened while drinking cold beer. The happiness he felt was indescribable.

In the blink of an eye, it was time for Lu Guanshan to treat everyone.

He was promoted to group leader, and according to custom he had to treat everyone to a meal, otherwise he would not explain it to his colleagues.

Yu Li is pregnant now, so Lu Guanshan naturally doesn't want to trouble her to cook, so he specially invites Zhang Li and Sun Caomiao to help with the cooking.

But both of them knew that their cooking skills were not as good as Yu Li's, so when cooking anything, they still consulted Yu Li's opinions.

Working with a bulging belly was indeed not as easy as before, and Yu Li did not want to make things difficult for herself, so she directly told her two sisters-in-law a recipe for braised pork.

"Let's just simmer a big pot of meat, pork head, pig ears, big bones, and also simmer some chicken feet, eggs, kelp, etc. This way, we can have a lot of dishes in one pot. For the rest, we can just stir-fry a few vegetarian dishes, which will be much more convenient."

At first, Zhang Baili thought that since it was Captain Lu who was treating the guests, would it be inappropriate to just braise the meat?

But when the braised pork pot was cooked and the flavor was absorbed, she couldn't help sniffing, her eyes lit up: "Oh my god, this smells so good!"

Yu Li also felt hungry after smelling the braised pork: "Mrs. Zhang, let's make these shredded potatoes spicy and sour to go with the wine!"

Zhang Boli nodded: "Okay, I'll cut some peppers!"

Sun Caomiao was frying snails with a huff. She was in charge of the cooking, while Yu Li was in charge of controlling the proportions of the various seasonings and the timing of adding them.

Many guests had already arrived in the yard outside, all chatting and laughing in a lively manner.

Suddenly, a loud horn sounded, and Sun Caocaomiao paused with his shovel in his hand. He said with a displeased look on his face, "Two sisters-in-law, have you heard about the new commander Zheng Lida and his daughter Zheng Rumo?"

Zhang Baili immediately replied: "I know, Zheng Rumo is a female soldier, she is carefree, and she is the only female company commander in our area. What's the matter, Cao Miao? Do you know her?"

Sun Caomiao was silent for a moment and said, "She is indeed carefree and can drive a car. The sound of honking the horn just now was probably her!"

But she didn't know how to say these words.

He just reminded Yu Li: "You... better pay more attention to Captain Lu. I heard that Zheng Rumo came to our place with her father and went to see Captain Lu a lot!"

What's more, both of them are military officers, so they have more common topics to talk about.

Yu Li found it strange, if Zheng Rumo and Lu Guanshan were very close, then she should be the one who was unhappy, why was Sun Saozi even more unhappy than her?

The three of them looked out the window into the yard at the same time.

A short-haired female soldier wearing a grass-green uniform and military boots came in. She punched Sun Caomiao's husband generously and said, "Good boy! I told you that we brothers were going to shoot together, but you came here first. Why are you being so shy like a woman? Are you afraid that I will eat you?"
