Chapter 24 Fragrant Braised Pork Belly (1/3)



After Qiao Anle and Li Fengbei came out of the alley.

Just follow the original route, walk back to the alley, and then continue to make three turns and then two turns to go out.

When finally leaving the corner of the black market.

Qiao Anle passed by an older middle-aged woman.

A moment.

She heard a series of chirping sounds, noisy and continuous.

The voice came from a middle-aged woman.

Qiao Anle's ears moved and he stopped suddenly.

Her eyes turned to the bamboo basket in the middle-aged woman's hand.

Seeing this, the middle-aged woman smiled on her dark face and greeted Qiao Anle.

"My dear wife, come and have a look. We raise them ourselves, and the price is cheap."

As the towel covering the bamboo basket was lifted, the chirping sound instantly became louder.

What was in the bamboo basket was a group of furry little chicks.

The chick was about four or five days old, and its fur was still sparse and a light yellow.

But they have strong vitality, squeezing around in the bamboo basket and turning around continuously.

The chicks were crowded together, and at a glance there were about a dozen of them.

The middle-aged woman said, "They were all hatched by the old hens at home. It would be a waste of food to keep them at home, so I wanted to sell them. They're really not expensive, why don't you pick a few and take them back?"

Qiao Anle was moved.

Because an idea suddenly occurred to her.

If you raise chickens at home, they will lay eggs when they grow up.

The eggs she kept in the Lingbao space could then be placed in the small kitchen at home with impunity.

No need to feed it to the three kids secretly.

You can also make fragrant and smooth egg custard for Li Fengbei.

Qiao Anle said, "I want all these chicks, and I'll buy your bamboo basket too. Auntie, how much do you want? Just tell me the price."

The middle-aged woman ate a pound of it. Obviously, she didn't expect Qiao Anle to be so generous and actually took it all in one breath.

She was overjoyed and said in a panic.

"Can you give me some food coupons? My old man has bad teeth and can't eat steamed bread. I came out to exchange some food coupons so that I can buy rice and cook porridge for him. Just... two kilograms of food coupons will be enough. The bamboo basket is free, it's a gift from me."

After hearing this, Qiao Anle turned around and took two kilograms of food coupons from Li Fengbei and handed them to the middle-aged woman.

The middle-aged woman took the food coupons with her dry hands, kept saying thank you to Qiao Anle, and carefully put the coupons into her arms, holding them like treasures.

Qiao Anle reached out and touched the little chicks, which felt furry.

She said to Li Fengbei, "When these little guys grow up, we can eat egg custard at home."

Li Fengbei nodded, "Okay, I'll eat it every day from now on."

The two looked at each other and smiled.

Then I went to the supply and marketing cooperative to buy a bicycle.

There is always a big tree at the entrance of every small mountain village.

There are always groups of people sitting under the trees, chatting and talking.

From morning to evening, the chattering women turned into men resting and drinking tea.

Just an ordinary day.

But an ordinary thing happened.

Gurgle, gurgle.

It sounded like something rolling on a gravel road.

It attracted attention at first.

But after a while, it caused the people around to open their eyes wide.

"Old man Sun, did you see that? What was that thing just now? Why did it just go by, spinning around in circles?"

"It's a bicycle! It must be a bicycle! Look at those two big wheels. I've seen bicycles like this in the county town."

"So this is the bicycle you were talking about? I've lived for most of my life, and this is the first time I've seen one! It doesn't look very big, how can people sit on it? It looks like... there are two people sitting on it?"
