Chapter 286 I have something to ask you
In addition to the meat, everyone brought steamed buns from home for lunch. They
were delicious when eaten with chicken soup and roasted rabbit.
Everyone ate happily, except Duan Yuzhen, who could only sit aside and gnaw on the cold steamed buns, looking at them with resentment.
Not to mention the factories one and three.
They were not as generous as the factories two, who stewed all the pheasants and rabbits they had just received, and what would they bring back.
Everyone basically ate the dry food they brought with them, which was not only cold, but also dry and stuck in the throat.
There was chicken soup, but there was only one chicken in the big pot of soup. The cooking was not good enough and it had no taste.
Unlike the second factory, where the aroma wafted for ten miles, the aroma of stewed chicken and roasted rabbit penetrated their noses without a trace, which was really appetizing.
Lin Yue was still angry about being scolded by Jiang Chenghuai just now. She sat in the corner and ignored people and did not eat, waiting for Jiang Chenghuai to come over and coax her. Unexpectedly,
Jiang Chenghuai was talking to Shao Jiakang and did not take her seriously at all.
Lin Yue saw it and felt even more aggrieved.
This time going up the mountain, the harvest was not small.
With the blessing of He Tingyue's four wild boars, the victory or defeat was not in suspense.
No matter how unwilling the first and third factories were, they had to divide their harvests today.
Director Zheng looked at these things and smiled.
"Thank you, I admit it."
Xue Chang was so angry that his nose was crooked.
Back in the city, Jiang Yu counted and found that his family had a lot of things to share.
The family couldn't finish it all, and now that the weather was getting warmer, the things couldn't be kept.
"Let's keep some for ourselves and sell the rest to the canteen."
He Feiyan nodded, "We can't finish it anyway."
In the compound, Xu Lihua and others saw that Jiang Yu went out and brought back so many things. They were envious.
"Jiang Yu, are these the prey you hunted?"
Xu Lihua took a look and saw that they were all pheasants and rabbits, and there were also many mushrooms.
Lin Hongxia said, "Since it is an activity organized by the factory, these things should belong to the public. Why did you bring them back?"
Jiang Yu knew that she was feeling sad, so she didn't get angry when she heard this.
"Aunt Lin, we have already handed over the part that should be handed over to the factory, and the rest are ours."
Xu Lihua grabbed a pheasant and said, "Jiang Yu, leave this pheasant to me, Lin Rui needs to recuperate."
After she said this, Sun Mu and Jiang Li also wanted one.
They both had pregnant women in their families, so they had a legitimate reason to buy the pheasant from Jiang Yu.
But Lin Hongxia was different, she couldn't even think of an excuse.
Jiang Yu brought back two pheasants in total, which was not enough for the three of them.
Xu Lihua was the first to speak, and since everyone else had taken the pheasants, Jiang Yu did not refuse.
But Sun Mu and Jiang Li were left with nothing.
Jiang Li was very dissatisfied, "Don't you still have one!"
"If I give it all to you, then I will have none." Jiang Yu rolled his eyes at her.
Jiang Li pouted, "You're not pregnant."
Jiang Yu sneered, "You can't eat chicken if you're not pregnant, who said that? You're not pregnant with my child, why should I give in to you?"
Now, she didn't even want to sell the rabbit.
Jiang Li followed him relentlessly, her tone slightly softened, "Jiang Yu, don't be so stingy, I don't want a pheasant, you can sell me a rabbit, right? I'm pregnant, you still want me to beg you." Jiang Yu
was annoyed by her pestering, so he gave her a rabbit.
She only had two rabbits left, so if she gave her one, there would be one left at home, which was enough to eat.
Jiang Li was overjoyed, gave the money quickly, and took the rabbit home.
Seeing this, the grandson's mother also wanted to ask Jiang Yu for a rabbit.
Before she could say anything, she was interrupted by Jiang Yu: "Auntie Ruan, I really can't sell it."
Sun's mother's face froze, "My Zhao Qing is about to give birth."
"I know, but I still say the same thing. You are not pregnant with my child, so what does it have to do with me? If you really want to eat meat, the next time the factory organizes everyone to go hunting, you should stop hiding."
He Feiyan said even more bluntly: "Auntie Ruan, think about what you said when we went out. How dare you ask us for these things now? If you are so greedy, go up the mountain by yourself next time."
Lin Donghua quickly agreed: "That's right, it's a pity that you didn't go. Jiang Yu's husband hunted four big wild boars, and those of us who went were given pork."
Jiang Yu and He Tingyue were given a whole wild boar, which they sold to the canteen of the second factory.
There was still a lot of wild boar meat left at home from the last time, and Jiang Yu made it into confit meat, which can be preserved for a long time.
Xu Lihua's face looked a little ugly, with unspeakable regret in her heart.
Zhang Jiahua originally wanted to go, but was stopped by her.
Sun's mother now felt the same as her. If Sun Zailiang was allowed to go, regardless of whether he could hunt prey, at least he could get two kilograms of meat.
Jiang Li would have nothing to regret, since she was not without meat to eat.
Sun's mother thought about it, and finally set her sights on Jiang Li.
Maybe she could coax Zeng Chang to give her meat.
Ever since Jiang Li became pregnant, Zeng Chang has been patronizing his small family and paying less and less attention to her.
In the past, with his financial support, Sun's mother had plenty of money and had no shortage of food and drink.
Now the gap is so big, and Sun's mother naturally felt resentful.
She deliberately stared at Zeng Chang when he came back, and sat at the door sighing.
Zeng Chang was humming a little tune and didn't notice her at all.
Seeing him walk into the house without looking away, Sun's mother bit her lip in complaint and called out, "Old Zeng."
Zeng Chang paused, "Xiu Yu, what are you doing sitting here?"
Sun's mother's expression froze, "I'm waiting for you here on purpose."
"Wait for me?" Zeng Chang walked over. "What do you want to ask me?"
Sun's mother nodded, a little embarrassed: "I have something to ask you."
"Oh! What do you mean by asking or not? Just tell me if you have something to ask. If I can do it, I will definitely do it for you."
After all, she is the white moonlight that Zeng Chang has liked for so many years. She will always have a place in his heart.
Sun's mother said: "You know, my Zhao Qing will give birth next month."
Zeng Chang laughed, "I know, my wife will be born in a few months."
Sun's mother's smile gradually stiffened, and her fingers pinched tighter.
"Yes, you are a lucky person. I hope Jiang Li will give you a big fat boy."
Zeng Chang couldn't help laughing when he heard it.
"I'm here to give you good luck. Oh, by the way, you haven't said what it is yet."
Sun's mother forced a smile, "Your Jiang Li and Jiang Yu bought a rabbit. I can pay more. Can you give the rabbit to me?"
Zeng Chang was in a dilemma. It
had nothing to do with money. It was just that Jiang Li didn't like him and Sun's mother to be in contact.
Besides, meat is so precious these days that you can't buy it even if you have money.
"You also know my Jiang Li's temper. If she knew, I'm afraid she would make a fuss."
Sun's mother's teeth were almost broken. "I know, so just hide it from her and don't let her know. Old Zeng, I'm not taking advantage of you. I paid for it."
She looked resentful and hesitated.
"Is our friendship for so many years not worth this rabbit?"
Zeng Chang couldn't bear to do it when he heard it.
"Here! I'll go back and tell Jiang Li, and ask Liangzi to wait at the entrance of the alley, and I'll give it to him. You guys stay hidden, don't let Jiang Li know that I gave it to you."
Otherwise, if she makes a fuss, she'll have to drink a pot of wine.
Sun's mother nodded repeatedly and laughed.
"I understand."
After a while, everyone saw Zeng Chang carrying the rabbit out.
Xu Lihua asked in confusion, "Old Zeng, where are you taking the rabbit?"
Zeng Chang said, "A friend of mine is sick and is short of meat. My wife is generous and asked me to give the rabbit away."
Although Jiang Li felt distressed, she suddenly felt that the meat was worth it when she heard him say this.
She straightened her chest, feeling particularly proud.
"After all, we are friends of Lao Zeng, so we need to help him more. There are only two of us in our family now, and we have a lot of money. Friends, they all come and go."
Xu Lihua smiled, "Old Zeng is really right to marry you."
