After seeing Ouyang Zijin off, Feng Qingxue felt relieved. She hoped that all the things would fall into Lu Jiang's hands, which would increase his safety and reduce the chance of him getting hurt.
As the first month of the lunar year passes the middle, everything comes back to life, and hints of green appear all over the mountains and fields.
Women who had been hungry for a whole winter carried bamboo baskets to dig wild vegetables in early spring. They came back to pick and wash them clean and made soup or porridge with them. If they were better off, they could mix them with flour and make steamed cornbread.
You occupy this place, I occupy that place, no one invades anyone else's territory, and everyone is busy with their work.
Wild vegetables are very good and rich in nutrients.
In order not to arouse suspicion, I’ve been eating nothing but radishes and cabbages for a whole winter and I’m tired of it. It’s time to add some new flavors!
Feng Qingxue brought her sister to join the army of digging wild vegetables.
Her equipment was complete, including a small bamboo basket, a large backpack, and two shovels, one large and one small.
Feng Qingxue only knew wild shepherd's purse and dandelion. Dandelion is dandelion, which is perfect for reducing inflammation and relieving pain. So she only dug these two. They were juicy, fresh and tender, and her heart became bright.
Hongling's mother and Aunt Feng gathered around the two sisters, digging wild vegetables and chatting.
It goes without saying that Second Aunt Feng benefited greatly.
Hong Lingniang was grateful to Feng Qingxue for the brown sugar and eggs she had given her some time ago. Thanks to these two good things, her daughter was able to replenish her nutrition and maintain her health, so both mother and daughter were deeply grateful to Feng Qingxue.
"Xiaoxue, have you heard?" Hongling's mother spoke first.
"What are you talking about, Auntie? I stay at home every day and rarely go out."
Aunt Feng likes lively occasions by nature, so she also asked what was going on.
"It's your eldest uncle's cousin, the one named Wang Jiao. She told me about Zhang Yuejin, the butcher who sells meat in the non-staple food store in our county. From now on, their family will never lack meat to eat." Hongling's mother was extremely envious.
Wang Jiao has a boyfriend? Feng Qingxue said she didn't know.
As for having meat to eat in the future, it made sense. Didn't the information she read say that? The butchers were so powerful, even more powerful than the cadres, and everyone wanted to buy meat through their backdoor.
The term "backdoor" originated from this.
Feng Qingxue smiled and said, "I haven't been to Wanglou for a while. I don't know what happened at my uncle's house. How did Auntie know about it?"
"Your aunt's family is from Wanglou. Didn't she go to visit relatives on the second and third days of the New Year?" Aunt Feng knew the relationship between Hongling's mother and Wanglou, so she quickly explained to her niece.
"So your mother's family is from Wanglou? What a coincidence."
"That's right. Who would have thought that your marriage would be discussed with my family?" Hong Ling's mother smiled with wrinkles on her face. "My family used to be tenants of the Lu family. To be honest, the Lu family is a good family. The rent they collect every year is 20% to 30% less than other landlords. Don't underestimate that 20% to 30% of food. Paying 20% to 30% less can keep 80% of the tenants from starving. Who wouldn't say that everyone in the Lu family is a good person? It's just that their family was unlucky. They had a lot of land, so they were classified as big landlords and were labeled as local tyrants."
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
As for the classification of class, Feng Qingxue smiled slightly and did not comment, "Has my cousin's marriage been decided? How come it got to us so soon?" She was only engaged when Lu Jiang came to pick her up and recognized her as a family member.
Hong Ling's mother thought for a moment and said, "It's most likely settled. My sister-in-law said that your eldest sister-in-law has agreed to the Zhang family's proposal."
