Chapter 253: Dividing the Beef

Jiang Ting's eyes were about to bleed as she looked at the things Jiang Yu bought.

She never wore new clothes during the Chinese New Year, and it was the same when she entered the Fu family.

Lin Hongxia bought a set of clothes for Fu Xiangyang and Fu Xiangyun.

When it was Jiang Ting's turn, she only had one sentence: "Men have to have a decent outfit when they work hard outside. You are different. You stay at home all day. Who are you dressing up for?"

Not to mention her, even Lin Hongxia herself didn't buy anything, so Jiang Ting didn't have the nerve to ask.

She observed for several days and found that Jiang Yu didn't buy anything either, so she felt balanced.

She was not afraid of living a bad life, but she was afraid that Jiang Yu would live a better life than her.

But when He Tingyue brought Jiang Yu back with so many things, her palms were almost broken.

Lin Hongxia sneered, very disdainful.

"Just wait and see, this spendthrift woman, He Tingyue's money will be squandered by Jiang Yu sooner or later! Fortunately, this woman didn't marry into my family, otherwise no matter how much she gets paid, it won't be enough for her to spend."

Hearing what she said, Jiang Ting felt a little better.

Being good at spending money is not an advantage. Jiang Yu is lazy, greedy, and a spendthrift. She is not a good daughter-in-law at all.

She is not like her at all, capable and thrifty.

But Jiang Ting's eyes seemed to be glued to it, and she couldn't leave the things in Jiang Yu's hands.

She bought new clothes and even new shoes.

Although she didn't want to admit it, Jiang Yu was like celebrating the New Year!

He Feiyan ran out of the house to help get things.

"Sister-in-law, why did you buy so many?"

It was obvious that these things were not just clothes for her and He Tingyue.

Xu Lihua quickly took over the conversation: "Feiyan, look at the way your sister-in-law spends money. She will definitely squander your dowry in the future!"

He Feiyan snorted as she listened to her sowing discord.

"It's my dowry that was squandered. Why are you in such a hurry, Aunt Xu? I can go out to work after the New Year. It's not like I can't make money. My sister-in-law is capable. She spends her own money."

He Feiyan herself is a lavish spender, so she would not have any opinion on Jiang Yu.

This money was not earned by her, and He Tingyue didn't say anything.

After entering the house, Jiang Yu couldn't wait to take out the shoes in the bag.

He Feiyan, like her, has a size 37.

"These leather boots are so warm, try them on to see if they fit your feet."

He Feiyan was a little embarrassed, "Sister-in-law, these are your shoes, how can I wear them?"

"I bought a pair for everyone, I still have one, this is for you."

He Feiyan's eyes lit up, "Do Zhengdong and Lilan have one too?"

"Yes, all five of us have one, they are in the bag, you can try them."

He Zhengdong couldn't wait to take out his own, he was wearing a size 41 and it was a bit tight, Jiang Yu remembered it and bought him a size 42.

The same was true for He Lilan, she was originally wearing a size 35 which was too small, so Jiang Yu bought a size 36 directly, which was just right when she put on thick socks.

The brother and sister couldn't wait to put on the new leather boots, which were all furry inside, thick and warm.

"This is so beautiful. I can wear it to school in the future and my feet won't be frozen at all! Sister-in-law, this must be very expensive, right? My feet will definitely get bigger. I won't be able to wear it for more than two years." He Lilan frowned, thinking it was a waste.

At this price, Jiang Yu would definitely not say it's not expensive.

"Of course it is expensive. This is all real leather, waterproof and warm. But as long as you are comfortable wearing it, it's worth it no matter how expensive it is. I can't not buy you shoes just because your feet are still long, right? You have to wear new shoes during the New Year."

There are still three pairs left, and they have to wait for Yao Xiangling and the others to come over before they can try them. Jiang Yu put them aside first.

He Feiyan couldn't wait any longer and went out for a stroll in her new leather boots.

He Qianqian looked at the shoes on their feet and felt jealous.

"Sister Jiang Yu, how much are these leather boots?"

If they were not expensive, she would buy them.

Jiang Yu said, "Thirty-five yuan a pair, quite expensive. I felt bad when I bought them."

"How much?" He Qianqian was shocked.

"Thirty-five."

He Qianqian was shocked. She couldn't afford it.

Even if she could afford it, she couldn't bear to spend it.

Jiang Yu bought them for the whole family at once. It was estimated that she spent all the bonus. She was really willing to spend it.

In the afternoon, Tie Niu came to inform them to move the beef.

Jiang Yu's whole family went out to move the meat home.

As soon as they walked out of the yard, they heard Xu Lihua ask, "Jiang Yu, are you going out again?"

Jiang Yu nodded, "Going out to buy some meat."

"Don't bother, the meat in the supply and marketing cooperative was sold out early in the morning." It

was close to the New Year, and the meat had to be rushed.

It's not a problem of money or tickets, it's a problem of supply not meeting demand, there's simply not enough meat to sell.

Jiang Yu smiled and said, "I'll just go out for a walk."

When Xu Lihua saw her like this, she still had something in her mind that she didn't understand.

She walked over stealthily and asked, "Jiang Yu, can you buy meat?"

"A fellow villager's cow fell to death, I went out to take a look."

Xu Lihua was extremely surprised, "Really? Leave me five catties."

"Aunt Xu, beef is more expensive than pork, one catty is one dollar and fifty cents, you can buy it if you can accept this price."

Xu Lihua's smile disappeared, and she muttered, "This is too expensive, give me a discount."

Jiang Yu shrugged, "Compared to having no meat to eat, this is nothing. Now it's the New Year, when no one can buy meat. Do you want it? If not, I'll leave. If you go too late, it will be gone."

Xu Lihua pursed her lips, gritted her teeth and bought it.

"Five catties, keep it for me!"

It was a sale to anyone, so Jiang Yu would naturally not refuse.

Jiang Yu and his family quickly came to Lai Liuzi's place. It was winter, and Master Li took off his coat and was sweating even in thin clothes.

It was obvious that this cow was not easy to handle.

When I got closer, I saw that the bones had been removed and the basin was full.

The remaining large pieces were all meat.

Master Li asked, "You pick first, how many pounds will be kept at home?"

Jiang Yu asked, "How many pounds of meat did you sell?"

Master Li said, "Four hundred and ninety."

Jiang Yu was very surprised, "So much? Then you can help me with it, and keep fifty pounds at home."

It was estimated that there would be a lot for the New Year's Eve dinner today.

Master Li nodded and started to cut the meat for her.

It weighed more than fifty pounds, and there were also some beef tripe.

For the remaining meat, a friend of Lai Liuzi ordered one hundred pounds and took it away directly.

Master Li took more than ten pounds for his own family, and there was still so much left that he could only take it back to the compound to sell.

Jiang Yu also left ten kilograms for Xie Feifei's family, and reserved it for several other places, so there was a shortage of several dozen kilograms.

The family of the factory leader that He Tingyue knew was also short of meat, so he must have needed some.

In this way, the meat of the whole cow was arranged clearly.

These ribs were also divided among the families, and it would be good to take them back to stew soup.

Xu Lihua was looking forward to it, just waiting for Jiang Yu to come home.

Seeing her figure, she was almost the first to rush forward.

"Jiang Yu, where is my meat?"

Jiang Yu handed over the meat reserved for her, "These two ribs are for free."

Xu Lihua paid the money quickly, and went back happily with her own meat.

Other people in the compound were also sharp-eyed. Seeing Lai Liuzi and Tie Niu carrying so much meat, Jiang Yu's family would definitely not be able to eat it all.

What were they carrying it back for? Of course it's for sale!

Lin Donghua came over with a basin. It's cold now, and the beef won't go bad. It doesn't matter if she buys more.

Jiang Yu weighed ten kilograms for her and gave her some ribs and pork chops.

Others were unwilling to be left behind and rushed to buy meat, fearing that the ribs would be gone.

With this meat, the family can have a good and abundant New Year.

After the beef was divided up, Jiang Yu finally breathed a sigh of relief.
