How much cotton does each person in the brigade get in a year? Less than two pounds, and that's with seeds. After removing the seeds, it's supposed to be made into cotton shoes? Or quilts?
It takes several years of cotton supply from several families to make a quilt.
This Chen Mo asked for a quilt as soon as she opened her mouth. Li Jinfeng didn't know that she really didn't know and she was taking her ignorance as superiority.
Chen Mo was very angry at Li Jinfeng's attitude for not being able to "borrow" the quilt, but she couldn't confront Li Jinfeng head-on. Zhang Li was right, this was her territory, and she could only endure it.
Chen Mo went into the house angrily and never came out again.
Li Jinfeng went to her private plot and brought back some radishes and cabbages. He Xin came to her and said, "Comrade Li... let's eat..."
"You still have to ask Captain Hong about your food and accommodation."
Li Jinfeng only provided accommodation because the house belonged to the brigade and she wanted to select teachers for the brigade's primary school, so she let these people live in. But it didn't mean that she had to be both a father and a mother, providing them with accommodation and food.
"Then I'll go ask first!"
He Xin didn't cause trouble for Li Jinfeng. She just did whatever Li Jinfeng said.
As soon as she left, Li Jinfeng started to make lunch.
Now that the weather is cold, there are more vegetables that can be stored at home. Two days ago, Li Jinfeng borrowed a tractor from the neighboring brigade and went to the county town. She bought a leg of lamb, some beef, and half a pig's head.
At noon, she prepared pork head, stir-fried radish, and stir-fried vegetable sprouts and garlic leaves for the children.
A combination of meat and vegetables, balanced nutrition.
As for the staple food, Li Jinfeng plans to make two-grain pancakes, which are common dishes here.
Mixing and kneading dough are not difficult tasks for Li Jinfeng.
Soon, she had the meat and the dough ready, and when it was time to cook the pig's head, she would stick a circle of dough on the edge of the pot.
Li Jinfeng finished cooking the meal, and Meimei and Yuanyuan, who were taken out to play by Tuantuan, came back.
The weather was cold, so the three little ones were all dressed warmly.
Yuanyuan and Tuantuan both wore dog-skin hats on their heads. Meimei was a little girl who loved beauty, so Li Jinfeng made a hat for her using old clothes whenever possible. However, the inside of the hat was made of wool, so it was very warm.
Although Meimei kept asking Li Jinfeng why she couldn't just wear a woolen hat without sewing it with cloth, woolen hats look much better.
Li Jinfeng always touched her daughter's head and said that she was too small and that when she grew up, she could wear a woolen hat directly.
Fortunately, the little girl was obedient and whatever she said was what she did.
When we got home, the three kids shouted at the same time, "Mom, we're back."
At this time, many children actually call their parents "Daddy" and "Mom", but not many call their parents "Dad" and "Mom", especially in the countryside here.
But the three kids have gotten used to it. When Yuanyuan is acting funny, she likes to call Li Jinfeng "my mother" or "my dear mother".
Hearing the shouts, Li Jinfeng came out to greet them happily, "Are you back, my dears? Just in time, lunch is ready, hurry up and wash your hands and eat!"
At this time, Chen Mo was leaning against the door of the main room.
The kitchen of Li Jinfeng's house is connected to the outside. Outside the main room, there is a terrace that leads directly to the kitchen.
Standing at the door of the main room, she could smell the rich aroma of rice. Chen Mo had been hungry for a long time. She knew that Li Jinfeng was cooking in the kitchen, so she waited for Li Jinfeng to finish cooking and call her to eat.
After waiting for a long time, Li Jinfeng came out. Although there were three more little ones, they looked so small and probably couldn't eat much, at least not her share.
