"Dad, let's go!"
Xu Meijuan looked at her father over there and greeted him.
Xu Tiancheng was drinking happily with a few colleagues. He looked at his daughter and nodded with a smile, "Okay, go ahead!"
"Don't drink too much."
"I know, I know."
"Uncle Xu, we're leaving first. Enjoy your meal and drink."
Chen Wang also said with a smile.
"Oh, okay!"
Xu Tiancheng nodded with a smile on his face.
Afterwards, Chen Wang called the proprietress to come over to settle the bill.
Five dishes and a soup only cost 4 yuan.
Chen Wang glanced at the table where Xu Tiancheng and others were sitting. Just as he was about to offer help to pay the bill, Xu Tiancheng's voice came from the other side.
"Little brother, you are treating my daughter to a meal, so don't pay for us. This is a company dinner, and we can't let you pay for it."
"Yes, Chen Wang, they can reimburse you, don't be stupid and pay for it all."
Xu Meijuan also reminded with a smile.
"All right!"
Chen Wang smiled, took out four dollars and handed it to the proprietress.
"Thank you, you are welcome to come again anytime."
The proprietress spoke with a smile on her face and saw them out the door.
"I'm very well fed."
After leaving the restaurant, the little girl touched her belly and smiled with satisfaction.
Several people were amused by her.
"Then I'll go back to work first, what about you guys?"
Xu Meijuan asked with a smile.
"I'm going to take them to the supply and marketing cooperative to buy some things, and then go back."
Chen Wang replied.
"Okay, see you next time!"
Xu Meijuan stretched out her hand and pinched the little girl's chubby face, and said with a smile: "Little cutie, I'm leaving now. Next time you come to town, remember to go play with your sister and take you to eat delicious food."
"Uh-huh!"
The little girl nodded vigorously.
"Then I'm leaving!"
Comrade Xiao Xu was a straightforward person. After he finished speaking, he went straight to the purchasing station. After he walked away, he turned around, raised his arms, and waved to them with a bright smile.
The little girl also responded with a sweet smile and a wave.
"Let's go. We've made a lot of money today. Let's go to the supply and marketing cooperative to spend some money."
Chen Wang pushed the bicycle parked nearby and suggested with a smile.
"Oh oh...I want to buy some fruit."
The little girl cheered.
"Okay, no problem."
"And double happiness candy."
"Don't we have some at home? Aren't you afraid of tooth decay if you eat so much candy?"
"I still have a little bit left. I only take a few pills every day. I also brush my teeth every morning and evening."
"Okay, I'll buy you another pack."
"What about you, wife? Is there anything you want to buy?"
Chen Wang looked at Lin Xiuqin and asked.
Lin Xiuqin shook her head with a smile.
"I heard that pregnant women like to eat sour food. Let's see if there are any dried plums or fruits and buy some for you."
Chen Wang said with a smile.
Lin Xiuqin nodded with a smile.
"Brother, you can also buy some oranges. My sister-in-law loves them."
The little girl took her hand and raised her head to remind her.
"Okay, then if you come across a fruit stand, just buy more."
At this point, Chen Wang suddenly thought of something, looked at Chen Dazhuang beside him and said, "Brother Zhuang, I went to the purchasing station today and sold your antlers and skins for 530. I'll give you the money."
"so much?"
Chen Dazhuang looked surprised.
"It's OK. The purchase price of these things has been rising along with the price of commodities recently. In fact, if you are not in a hurry to sell them, you can keep them. They will definitely become more and more expensive in the future."
Chen Wang said with a smile.
"Forget it, it's better to sell it and make money. Besides, it will cost a lot of money to build a house next year!"
"It's up to you. I'll give you the money."
Looking around and seeing that there were no people around, Chen Wang leaned his bicycle against his body, took out the stack of money that belonged to Chen Dazhuang and handed it to him.
Chen Dazhuang also stopped his bicycle, happily took the money and put it in his pocket.
There is no need to count, that would question the trust between the two people.
I went to the supply and marketing cooperative and bought a bunch of snacks and daily necessities, then went to the food station and bought some barbecue seasonings, and also bought some mutton, beef, chicken wings and other things that I didn’t have at home.
Going to rest at home for two days and try the whole BBQ tomorrow.
On the way back, I came across a fruit stall and bought some oranges, apples and bananas.
It just so happened that Chen Wang had almost spent all the change he had.
…
…
After returning home, I cleaned up the things I bought and then took a comfortable nap.
When I woke up, my wife had already started preparing dinner.
For lunch, I didn’t cook in the afternoon. Instead, I cooked noodles and made臊子 with diced venison, mushrooms, eggs, etc.
Each person has a big bowl of noodles, pour a big spoonful of meat sauce on it, stir it, and it feels so good to slurp the noodles.
Paired with the pickled radish cubes given by my mother-in-law, it would be a real treat in any banquet.
After eating and drinking, he watched TV and rested in the room. Then Chen Wang took a hatchet and went out to the bamboo forest behind the village to chop a bundle of thin green bamboo.
In the room, a program was playing on TV. Chen Wang sat on a small stool, using a hatchet to split the bamboo into long thin strips. He then handed them to his wife, who sharpened one end of the strips with a knife and then soaked them in a basin of clean water.
After preparing enough bamboo sticks, Chen Wang went to take a shower.
The remaining steps can be done tomorrow.
It’s hard to even eat meat these days, let alone barbecue.
Some people in big cities may have eaten it, but in mountain villages like Chenjia Village, almost no one has eaten it.
