"I was lucky just now. I went to the supply and marketing cooperative and the pork stall happened to have pork on sale. Each person was limited to half a pound of meat, so I bought half a pound! But it should be sold out by now. When I left, there was a long line!" said Li Jinfeng.
Hearing this, Sun Jianqiang revealed a look of regret, "If I had known... I would have gone there even if I hadn't gone to work!"
Li Jinfeng heard what he said and immediately felt that there might be something hidden, so she asked, "Technician Sun, are you in a hurry to buy pork?"
Sun Jianqiang nodded. "My wife is pregnant. We just found out a few days ago. She's already two months pregnant! But she's as thin as a monkey. Every time I get up early and go to the queue to buy pork, I can't get any! I can only go again tomorrow. I hope my luck will be better!"
Sun Jianqiang was naturally happy that his wife was pregnant.
But he was afraid of lack of nutrition.
I am afraid that the child my daughter-in-law has carried for ten months will die prematurely.
Looking at the gloomy Sun Jianqiang, Li Jinfeng took out a bone from the marrow she had bought and said, "Here, there's not much meat on it. Go back and remove the meat from it and make a dish for your wife. You can use the bone soup to cook noodles."
The tubular bones in the county town come in two pieces per pair.
And unlike those in Jiangbei Province, there is a thick layer of meat on the pork ribs in the county town. Most people can eat it twice after buying it.
One time, the meat on top is removed, and the other time, the bones are stewed.
The meat on the pork ribs from Jiangbei Province has been removed completely, leaving only a rack.
Li Jinfeng took out a bone marrow on her own initiative, and Sun Jianqiang was dumbfounded.
This is pork shank, a good thing that you may not be able to buy even if you queue up.
Especially in this era, when pork supply and purchase are limited.
"Here, go back early and make it for your sister-in-law! Also, if you have money, you can go to the supply and marketing cooperative and buy two cans of malted milk. My two pregnant women at home both eat it this way, one spoonful a day, mixed with warm water!"
Li Jinfeng was not an experienced person, but seeing that Zhang Xiu Lan and Zhao Mei Xia looked much better after taking malted milk, she thought it must be useful.
And malted milk is indeed not cheap. In this day and age, if it has no effect, it definitely wouldn’t be so expensive!
Sun Jianqiang took the marrow bone and thanked Li Jinfeng repeatedly, "Thank you... Thank you, Comrade Jinfeng! How much is this marrow bone? I'll give you the money!"
"No need. You always help me watch the tractor. Just consider it as my thank you gift!" said Li Jinfeng.
Li Jinfeng is not the kind of person who doesn't understand things.
Every time she parked the tractor outside the agricultural technology station, Sun Jianqiang would help her watch it for an entire afternoon, sometimes even a whole day, and he never complained.
After all, she owed someone a favor, and this time, Sun Jianqiang really needed this thing, so Li Jinfeng would not care about the one or two cents.
"Thanks……"
Li Jinfeng got on the tractor and left the agricultural technology station.
Sun Jianqiang happily returned home with the hard-earned bone.
…
After Li Jinfeng drove the tractor out of the county, she took out the pig's trotter from the space and changed the pork belly from half a catty to three catties.
The Li family hasn't eaten meat for a long time. Even the two pieces of bacon she gave Huang Yu last time, Huang Yu was reluctant to cook them every time. He only cut a few slices each time, which was not enough to eat.
