Chapter 370
The whole family went to the market 3 Chu Xun was tall and saw Accountant Qian who was standing on the tractor selling things at a glance.
"Nana, this is our team's stall."
Old Mrs. Chen instantly held her head high and chest out, quite proud, "Tsk tsk, look at what they grabbed, the old lady's shoes were squeezed off.
See that? The one wearing a grey cotton-padded jacket, who’s quite fat!
We have it better. We don’t have to queue or squeeze. We can just buy whatever we want to eat at the farm.”
Old Mrs. Chen speaks in a loud voice.
When the people around heard this, they knew that the three people were from the Big Pig Pen and they all looked at them with envy.
Old Mrs. Chen became even more proud.
It was as if his whole body was glowing, and his chin almost reached the sky.
Old Mrs. Chen watched from the side for a while and exchanged a few words with the old man and old woman next to her.
Then I continued to stroll around the market without caring about my relatives.
Almost everything sold in the market is home-grown, such as green radishes, Chinese cabbage, carrots, potatoes, and frozen cabbage.
This frozen cabbage is quite popular in the market.
Many people are buying it, but it’s actually not that delicious. It’s just sauerkraut and potatoes all winter, and occasionally eating some frozen cabbage can change the taste.
Frozen cabbage and the cabbage used for pickling sauerkraut are different.
The cabbage used for pickling sauerkraut is large and firm, while the cabbage used for freezing should be the kind that is not well grown and is loose.
They call it Pala Ke Zi here.
When eating, blanch it in water and dip it in sauce. The sauce should be made by stir-frying red pepper powder with soybean paste.
In addition, there are also various pickles for sale, such as pickled chives, pickled cucumbers, leeks, and mustard greens.
There are also dried radish strips, hazel mushrooms, bean skins, potato chips, chili strips, etc.
None of the three were interested.
Old Mrs. Chen even grumbled, "I pickled less sauerkraut this year.
The brigade has fresh vegetables. If you like to eat sauerkraut all the time, it’s not expensive for us to buy vegetables.
Buying a pound of leeks can make several soups.
The day before yesterday I bought a small bunch and added some potatoes to make soup. Your grandfather, your third uncle and the others all loved it.
It's just a bit of a waste of food. Your grandfather eats four big cornmeal pancakes for one meal.
Plus a bowl of corn porridge, your third uncle is even better, and even the two girls Qingzhi and Qingli are big eaters.
But there is no Xiao Feng to eat."
Chen Qingyi:……!!
"Grandma, why are you only talking about others? What about yourself?"
If you find something delicious, don’t eat it. Chen Qingyi glanced at the old lady’s increasingly white and plump face.
Since they started making money, her grandma and grandpa's food has improved dramatically.
Even her grandmother loosened her grip a lot after being brainwashed by the old lady.
Occasionally I would buy a rabbit to eat, and if I felt craving it I would buy a pound of pork. This winter I also bought leeks and tomatoes twice to make soup.
I still can’t bear to buy beans and eggplants.
Old Mrs. Zhao and Old Man Zhao have also gained a lot of weight compared to last year.
When Chen Qingyi and others send something to the Chen family, they will also send a portion to the Zhao family.
There is much more oil and water this year than before.
Old Mrs. Chen curled her lips and didn't care:
"I'm already halfway into the coffin. If I don't enjoy myself now, when will I enjoy myself?"
"Grandma, the harvest is good this year, so we've got plenty of food! Plus, with plenty to eat, we'll have plenty of energy to make matchboxes."
"Too."
Old Mrs. Chen thought that the amount of food she received this year was more than twice as much as in previous years.
I started to feel happy again.
He also tries to make amends for himself, fearing that he will leave a stingy impression in front of his future grandson-in-law:
"I'm not really sad, but I usually only eat half the pot once I cook, and the food in the jar is gone in a few days. I used to calculate how much I ate.
I was afraid that by autumn, the crops would not be harvested yet and I would have no food to eat.
I’m also afraid of going hungry next year.
Now that I’m eating like crazy, I’m a little uncomfortable.”
Not only her, other families also feel the same way. They stay at home during the winter and don't work. They used to be lucky if they could eat until they were 60% full.
Now no one cares even when I'm eating until I'm sick to my throat, and I can't help but feel confused.
No support, no adaptation.
Chen Qingyi and Chu Xun understood very well that their generation really had not had a good life.
Many people have stomach problems, which are almost all caused by hunger.
When the food was distributed before, many elderly people were wiping away tears. They were crying with joy.
Chu Xun: "Grandma, the future will be good."
Old Mrs. Chen nodded.
"Grandma, didn't you say you wanted to buy tobacco for Grandpa? They're available there."
Chen Qingyi pointed and changed the subject. This area of stalls sold things like backpacks, earthen baskets, curtains, pot scrubbers and brooms for sweeping the floor.
There is a bit of yellow tobacco leaves in front of an old man holding a pipe at the very edge.
Old Mrs. Chen just paid for it all.
If you go further west, you will see people selling firecrackers and red paper.
No matter how poor the family is, they will buy some red paper to write couplets, write the word "Fu", and cut window flowers. The family whose couplets have the best calligraphy will be judged.
That family was very successful before the New Year, and many people came to ask for favors.
Not only do they write couplets, but those who are better off will also buy a few more sheets of red paper.
Write something like "good luck when going out", "the pigs and cows are full in the pen", and even families with bicycles will post a piece of paper wishing safe travels.
In addition, a picture of the Kitchen God will be posted on the stove.
They were all written by myself. The first line is about good things coming from heaven, and the second line is about keeping the world safe.
There is not much market for the God of Wealth now.
Not allowed to post.
Old Mrs. Chen bought five large red papers. There are many gates in the countryside, such as the main gate, the room door, the east and west room doors, and the warehouse door...
Chen Qingyi didn't buy it, but Zhao Xiangmei said she would buy it and specifically asked her not to buy too much.
The place selling firecrackers was also crowded with people mostly teenagers. Chen Qingfeng and Chu Heng were actually here too!
Chen Qingyi squeezed over and patted his shoulder: "Third brother, where is our grandma?"
"Our grandma left with our mom halfway." Chen Qingfeng leaned close to Chen Qingyi's ear and shouted, but he had to shout because she couldn't hear him.
Chen Qingyi nodded, knowing that her grandmother disliked her third brother, who was a monkey.
When Old Lady Zhao and Chen Qingfeng walked together, they looked like Sun Wukong and Tang Monk who had just jumped out of the Five Finger Mountain.
One walked slowly, and the other ran and stumbled.
"Xiaoyi"
Chen Qingyi: "Hmm?"
The sugar content of "Little Yimei" Chen Qingfeng is so high that her fasting blood sugar can reach 20.
Chu Xun's face was stern and it was unbearable to watch. Old Mrs. Chen couldn't stand it either and frowned:
"You're a grown man, please speak nicely. You gave me goose bumps."
"Hehe..." Chen Qingfeng pointed at the firecrackers, "Let's buy more this year. Look, we have double-kick firecrackers this year.
The stall owner just said that this one is very loud.
When it's released, there's a bang, and it's really impressive!"
