Chapter 157 Sweeping the Snow

While they were talking, the duck meat was cooked.

Together with potatoes and cabbage, there were pancakes soaked in soup on top. The whole pot couldn't hold it all, so they put another plate.

Jiang Yu called out, "Liu Zi, Tie Niu, come in and eat!"

As for the other three, they didn't need her to call them at all. They washed their hands and swarmed in.

Everyone just served their own rice, and Jiang Yu couldn't wait to pour the soup on the rice.

Just by mixing it like this, Jian Zhixiang was confused.

She buried her head and took a bite. This kind of satisfaction could not be brought by any other food.

At this time, everyone was busy eating, and their mouths were full of food. They had no time to talk.

Until the whole pot of duck meat was empty, there was no soup left, and they ate it all up.

Jiang Yu touched her stomach, covered her mouth and burped.

This kind of fullness was not only a feeling of fullness in the stomach, but also a psychological satisfaction.

Jiang Yu squinted her eyes lazily, she felt that she could not live without meat in her life.

After sitting for a while, Lai Liuzi and Tieniu felt a little embarrassed.

He was very polite in words, but he was very honest when eating, and even the soup was not spared.

He and Tieniu ate at least one third of the duck that was promised to be given away.

Tieniu was honest and took the initiative to clean up the dishes, but He Zhengdong snatched them away.

"Brother Tieniu, don't fight with me, this is my job!"

Tieniu found it strange. He also has a younger brother, who is about the same age as He Zhengdong. He always runs away after eating and never thinks about doing housework.

He Zhengdong is really different, and he is eager to do it.

Seeing how possessive he is of these dishes and chopsticks, Tieniu had to let go.

They didn't disturb them for too long, drank two sips of water, and stood up to say goodbye.

When Jiang Yu sent them out, he said two things: "Liuzi, if you two believe me, just wait for a while and let your brother-in-law figure it out. Don't act on your own."

Lai Liuzi and Tieniu looked at each other, and of course they believed Jiang Yu.

"Okay, sister-in-law, since you said so, then we'll wait a little longer."

Lai Liuzi didn't expect that Jiang Yu's two words would indirectly save their lives.

Because within three days, a man who also hung out near Daxin Hutong was arrested.

The man was called Liu San, and he didn't have much friendship with Lai Liuzi, and even had some grudges. The two had been at odds for several years.

Probably because he heard that Lai Liuzi had sold a few ducks, he followed the clues and found out that Lai Liuzi had been to Pinggu County and brought back ducks from there, so he followed him.

Lai Liuzi was mainly after cotton before, so he didn't dare to buy too many ducks.

Liu San was different. He went there just for the ducks, put all his money into it, and bought 200 ducks.

In the end, not only did he lose all his money, but he was also arrested.

These 200 ducks were ironclad evidence, and Liu San might end up in jail.

Lai Liuzi was scared and hurried to find Tie Niu.

"Fortunately, we listened to my sister-in-law!"

Tie Niu was sweating coldly. He wanted to get rich, but he was timid and only dared to follow Lai Liuzi to pick up bargains.

When he thought about going to jail, his legs went weak.

"So... what are we going to do?"

Lai Liuzi shook his head. "Keep quiet for a while and wait for news from my sister-in-law."

Jiang Yu didn't realize that her casual reminders had made the two of them obey her orders.

She received the manuscript fee from the newspaper yesterday and dragged He Feiyan out to the department store.

There was no need for a ticket to buy vanishing cream, so she bought several bottles of Ya Shuang at a time and also grabbed a handful of clam oil.

She also bought a bag of vanishing cream, so she didn't feel bad about using a whole bag.

But He Feiyan felt sorry for her because she had just spent the manuscript fee.

"Sister-in-law, why don't you ask my brother to come and pay the money, and keep the royalties for yourself as pocket money."

Jiang Yu smiled slyly, "You don't know yet, but the family's financial power is in my hands. Your brother is the one who needs pocket money."

He Feiyan really just realized it, and said suddenly, "No wonder the family's living standards have risen directly, it's all because of my sister-in-law's good housekeeping."

Jiang Yu glared at her, "I'm not talking to you, a little flatterer."

He Feiyan giggled and stepped forward to hold her arm.

"Then I want to buy two more new comic books. Sister-in-law, please help me."

Jiang Yu glared at her. "Buy, buy, buy. Use your dowry to buy them!"

He Feiyan spat at her. "I won't marry anyone and rely on you for the rest of my life. You and my brother will support me."

Jiang Yu laughed. "Support you. It's not that we can't afford it. I'll support you for the rest of your life!"

He Feiyan was very happy. Of course, she would not let them support her, but she felt very happy when she heard these words.

"But why did you buy so much vanishing cream? It's just a face, you can apply it eight or ten times a day, you won't need so much."

Jiang Yu said, "One can of Ya Shuang for each person."

"And mine? I haven't used up the one I bought last time." He Feiyan often uses Ya Shuang, but she doesn't think it's too rare.

"Don't be picky, in addition to the face, you can also use it on the neck. This bag is for the body, and clam oil is for hands. Anyway, it's cheap, don't worry about it." Jiang Yu said so much that He Feiyan was shocked.

Don't you feel sorry for it? This is the first time she heard someone buy clam oil to wipe their hands!

How many people use this to wipe their faces and are reluctant to do so.

"Are you really going to wipe our hands?" She asked in disbelief.

Jiang Yu said as a matter of course: "Winter is dry. If you don't take good care of your skin, it will freeze and become dry and cracked. You don't know that Wang Yunshan's skin is particularly dry. We couldn't afford these at that time. She had severe cracking on her body. When she took off her clothes, it was like snowing."

She bought a lot of bags of vanishing cream and a lot of clam oil, and planned to ask Jiang Ye to bring some to Wang Yunshan.

It's not that she didn't feel sorry for the money, but Jiang Yu felt it was worth it.

In early November, it snowed in the north city. It

was not like she had never seen snow in previous years, but Jiang Yu felt that it was different this time.

The snow began to fall at night, and by day, there was snow on the roof and outside.

Early in the morning, He Tingyue was sweeping the snow with a broom.

Jiang Yu said angrily, "Why aren't you wearing gloves?"

He Feiyan reminded him, "My brother used to have gloves. Last year, he went to sweep snow with the factory organization. He lent them to someone else and never took them back."

Jiang Yu smiled mysteriously and turned to go into the house.

She had long noticed that He Tingyue seemed to have no gloves, so she made him a pair.

She took them out of the house, one pair was big and the other was small, and the small one was for He Feiyan.

"Try them on to see if they fit you."

He Feiyan's eyes were filled with surprise. "I have one too?"

Jiang Yu smiled and said, "They're all made of scraps of cloth. Isn't it unique?"

He Tingyue didn't show it on his face, but the curve of his lips gave him away.

The gloves are made of pure cotton, with a lot of cotton stuffed inside.

Although they are not waterproof, they are very warm and comfortable to wear.

He Zhengdong and He Lilan have been with Jiang Yu for such a long time, and they know her character well, so they naturally don't suspect that she is partial.

The brother and sister pretended to be dissatisfied and shouted, "Sister-in-law is partial. She only makes them for my brother and sister!"

Jiang Yu glanced at Xu Lihua who was eavesdropping with her ears tilted up, and smiled slyly.

"You two have old gloves that are still in good condition, so I made them for your brother and sister first, and then for you. I dare not not make them for you, lest Aunt Xu hears and accuses me of abusing the martyrs' relatives."

Both children giggled, covering their mouths, knowing that she was trying to embarrass Xu Lihua.
