The little girl was like a kid, and she spoke like a kid, which made Jiang Li laugh. Jiang Li poured out the carrot balls she brought and added some pig fat residue to her bowl. "Auntie, I'll ask you for help later if I have anything."
After being scolded by Xue Ying, Li Xiaohu didn't dare to stay any longer and went back home in despair.
Xue Yingzi looked at him with disdain, "He's lucky to run away quickly, otherwise I would tell my classmates tomorrow that Li Xiaohu is fleecing the public again."
"Sakura, how come you are so eloquent? You are so smart!"
"Of course, I'm the class monitor in school. If I can't speak, the teacher won't choose me. Auntie, my family is going to have dinner, I'll go back first."
Xue Yingzi walked away with the bowl in hand, walking briskly and straight, and occasionally she would eat some pig fat residue from the bowl.
Seeing that Sun Zi came back empty-handed, while Xue Yingzi from next door was given pig fat residue, Old Lady Luo was so angry that she cursed, "It really shows off her, a little girl with a sharp tongue. She was even sent to school, bah! A waste of money."
Wang Fang had no choice but to set the table and invite Li Xiaohu, who was in a bad mood, to eat. Li Xiaotao watched from the side and saw that her grandmother didn't eat and her brother was crying, so she didn't dare to eat at all.
On the other side, the preserved plum pork ribs had already absorbed their juice, and Qi Shaoqiang made a shredded radish and egg soup.
Mix the freshly boiled pork fat with the rice, add some soy sauce and chopped green onions, simple seasoning, ultimate deliciousness.
The spareribs are tender, the sweetness of rock sugar is mixed with the sourness of plums, a perfect sweet and sour taste. If you get tired of it, try the shredded radish.
Served with two small cucumbers and pickled vegetables that Chen Xianyun brought, and finally finished with a cup of hot soup, Jiang Li was very satisfied.
In the countryside, there is nowhere to go in the winter except staying in your house. But in the county, it is different, you can even watch movies.
In fact, the movies nowadays are not that good, and few people watch them in winter, but Jiang Li is still very excited.
The two bought some sugar-roasted chestnuts and soda, and sat side by side in the dark, Qi Shaoqiang peeling the chestnuts and Jiang Li eating them one at a time.
The plot was so boring that Jiang Li fell asleep when the movie ended. When she woke up, she was already on her way home.
Jiang Li lay on Qi Shaoqiang's back in a daze, wearing his military uniform, which was warm and firm, blocking out the cold wind.
The day after we moved to the county, Chen Xianyun came over. Her eyelashes were covered with water. She came with a small bag and a chicken. "You only brought so little. It's not enough.
Mom brought some of the dried vegetables, beans, pickled vegetables, fried squid, and eggs from home."
Jiang Li felt so much pain that she poured a bowl of hot sugar water and handed it to her mother-in-law, "Hurry up and warm it up. Mom, it's too cold. Don't run away next time. When we have time, Shaoqiang and I will go back to get it."
Chen Xianyun drank two sips and his frozen body warmed up. "It's okay. You, Shaoqiang, are busy. I have nothing to do. It's no big deal to run two trips."
"This house looks good. It's nice and spacious."
Chen Xianyun turned his head and looked around. It was enough for two people, but if she came along, it would be a little insufficient. Fortunately, she did not plan to go into the city.
"Mom, after dinner I'll take you around. Let's go shopping in the department store."
Jiang Li planned to buy a cashmere hat for her mother-in-law and a pair of trousers for her grandmother.
Chen Xianyun was also very excited. She had saved more than ten yuan from making hair circles during this period. Since she could earn money, she was naturally more willing to spend it than before.
It happened that Qi Shaoqiang had come home for lunch. The rice he had for two days was not enough for three days, so he stewed an egg and drizzled some sesame oil on it.
After dinner, the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law went to the department store, and Qi Shaoqiang went to work as usual.
Officer He was chatting in the security department's booth. When he saw Qi Shaoqiang, he greeted him, "Leader!"
Qi Shaoqiang nodded, his eyes falling on her braided hair, a knitted woolen scrunchie in the shape of a kitten, which looked very familiar, "The scrunchie is pretty."
His wife is really smart. These days he has seen many female colleagues in the factory wearing this kind of hairband.
He Lingling was a little surprised. Qi Shaoqiang was usually a serious person who didn't talk much except for work, but today he was exaggerating for the first time.
But at the same time, she also had some beauty in her heart. She spent two dollars to buy this hairband, and her mother scolded her for it.
She was accused of wasting money, buying a hair band and inappropriate food and drink, and she was so angry that she didn't go home for lunch.
He Lingling's friend was a little jealous. If she spent so much money on a hair rope, her mother would have to cut her first. But He Lingling was so happy that she was also a little moved.
"Lingling, where did you buy this hair band? Take me to have a look after get off work."
"Yes, but the stall owner may not be open today. It's snowing too much..."
"You're not setting up your stall when it's snowing?"
"Not only does he not open the stall when it snows, he also does not open the stall when the weather is too hot, and he does not open the stall when the weather is bad. In short, he is a strange boss."
"It's strange not to make money."
Jiang Li, who was being talked about, was queuing up with her mother-in-law at the supply and marketing cooperative to buy rubber shoes. Chen Xianyun touched the rubber shoes and couldn't let go, but was still a little hesitant, "Lizi, these shoes are too expensive, and you need a ticket."
"Mom, wear these so your feet don't get wet. Put a layered insole inside. They're warm and windproof. Buy two pairs, one for grandma."
Jiang Li paid the money and Chen Xianyun's eyes became teary. This daughter-in-law is so sweet.
"Your grandma doesn't even know how happy she is to be home!"
After ordering some of her grandmother's favorites, Chen Xianyun came with a lot of bags and left with a lot of bags.
Jiang Li had nothing to do in the afternoon, so she simply went out to set up a stall.
After squatting in the cold wind for a while, her face was frozen. The weather was cold and there were fewer people on the black market. Jiang Li blew on her cold fingers.
While watching the people passing by, suddenly a woman with a fat face came up and pulled a girl towards Jiang Li.
A hair band fell in front of Jiang Li, and the girl asked the girl, "Do you like him?"
The girl's eyes were red and she said nothing. Jiang Li picked up the hairband. It was obviously not made by herself. It should have been made by that plagiarist who disrupted the market with low prices.
The quality of the hair band is not good. When I picked it up, the rubber band inside broke and the seams were also unraveled.
"You dare to ask for $1.50 for such a junky thing! Do you think you deserve it?"
The fat girl's saliva spurted out, and Jiang Li quickly took two steps back to avoid it.
"Mom, let's go back." The short-haired girl pulled her mother with red eyes.
"Miss, this thing is not from my stall. You have to find the right one to settle the bill. You can go to the black market and see if my stall has ever sold such inferior stuff?"
"Bah! Your stall is exactly the same as mine. How dare you lie to me? Give me your money back!"
