Li Jinfeng was thinking about how much delicious food to prepare for Lu Jianguo, while Feng Dachun was thinking about how to make the dinner for Li Jinfeng at home rich and delicious.
During the Chinese New Year, Feng Dachun saved half a pound of meat for this meal.
Although half a pound of meat is not a lot, she has tried her best.
Although the man Chen Xiang's salary is high, it is 86.5 yuan a month, which is a level 10 technical salary.
But her husband doesn't make many friends, and he's not a local. All his thoughts are on his work at the unit, and he doesn't know a thing about the ways of the world.
If Feng Dachun hadn't come, he wouldn't know how to spend the New Year.
As for the meat for the New Year, Feng Dachun had to use his connections with his fellow villagers to buy two kilograms of meat.
These two pounds of meat still gave her enough face.
You know, there are a lot of rich people in the provincial capital of Jiangbei Province. Some people can even pay ten or twenty yuan for a pound of meat, which is twenty or thirty times the market price.
Feng Dachun could not understand how those people spent their money. She just kept spending it and would not use it if she could avoid it.
The money saved can be used to send some to parents on both sides.
You know, life in the countryside is not easy either. It will be much better if you have money!
The only thing is food shortage.
But Feng Dachun had no choice. She herself was not a registered resident here and could not receive the food supply.
The family of four relied on the little food provided by Chen Xiang. Fortunately, Chen Xiang was at work most of the time, otherwise there would not be enough food.
Feng Dachun prepared several dishes for dinner, including pork stewed with vermicelli, sweet and sour pork, spicy and sour potato shreds, and egg soup. She used up half a pound of meat and even scooped a spoonful of lard into the vermicelli.
There are four dishes in total, and there are six people including Li Jinfeng.
The portions Feng Dachun made were generous, so there was no need to worry about not having enough to eat.
It was the staple food that troubled her for a long time.
It’s definitely not possible to cook rice because there aren’t that many fine grains.
Feng Dachun usually prepares some coarse grains, mixes them with some fine grains, and cooks a few sweet potatoes. She doesn't know if it would be rude to entertain guests in this way.
After gritting my teeth, I finally increased the proportion of fine grains and reduced the proportion of coarse grains. In this way, the coarse grain rice I made would not be so rough.
At dinner time, Li Jinfeng arrived as promised.
She brought six white flour buns, some dried radishes made by Lao Li's family in Anwu County, half a pound of egg cakes, and half a pound of shortbread.
When Feng Dachun saw Li Jinfeng carrying so many things, he was completely stunned. "Sister Jinfeng, how can you live like this? If you give things away like this, your house will be completely emptied out."
Feng Dachun is a very honest person.
Most people, seeing so many things, would just accept them with a smile.
She refused to answer and told Li Jinfeng not to spend so much money.
Li Jinfeng knew that Feng Dachun was a good person, but she couldn't take back the things she had taken out.
"Sister-in-law, these things were bought by my husband during the Chinese New Year. You know, he has gone to work now, and we don't have any children yet. How long will it take to finish eating so many things? You might as well let Jindou, Jinwa, and Daya help me share the burden, so as to avoid waste." Li Jinfeng said with a smile.
When Feng Dachun heard her say this, he felt that it made sense and had no choice but to accept it.
Then he turned to Li Jinfeng and said, "Sister Jinfeng, this is the last time. Next time you come to my house, don't bring these things with you!"
