When Tian Yujun saw that Chen Baoguo was going to give him the big one, he quickly stopped him: "Baoguo, this leg is too big and too much. Your brother and I can't finish it. Just give us a little less."
"Sister-in-law, please don't be polite. They say this thing won't go bad. You can take it home and eat it slowly. When you want to eat it, just take two slices.
By the way, I have dried persimmons here, you can take a pack too."
Chen Baoguo tied the ham to the back seat of Tian Xiaojun's bike, and took out a bag of dried persimmons from his army green bag and hung them on the handlebars of Tian Xiaojun's bike.
"Sister-in-law, go slowly when you go there, and be careful."
"Hey, then you guys go slowly, I'll go first."
"Hurry up, sister-in-law."
Tian Yujun left first. The couple watched Tian Yujun's car go away before heading home.
Chen Baoguo looked at He Damei and smiled, saying, "Wife, I haven't seen you for more than a month. I feel like your belly has grown a lot."
As he spoke, he reached out and touched her belly. It was round and bulging. Her walking posture had changed. It must be very hard to carry such a big belly.
He Damei: "As the baby's belly grows, my belly will definitely grow too.
Being a father is so easy for you. Since I got pregnant, you went out for a while, came back for a while, and went out twice after the Chinese New Year. By the time you came back, I would have given birth to the baby."
Chen Baoguo smiled foolishly: "Just take care of you and the child, and I will earn money to support you and your mother."
He Damei smiled and said, "Yes."
"I calculated that I haven't had much rest in the past few months. My salary last month was about 80 yuan. I will mail 10 yuan to my parents after I get the money.
It's almost New Year, let them buy some fine grains to eat."
Chen Baoguo didn't smoke or drink, and he handed over all the salary he earned in the past few months to He Damei without leaving a penny. On the way here from another province, he had already thought about what to do with last month's money.
He Damei: "By the time you come to mail the money, it will probably be a year before my parents receive it.
I mailed it to them a few days ago and also bought a few pounds of candy with them, so don't worry.
Let me tell you, I record our salaries in a small notebook every month.
I remember exactly how much was given and how much was lost.”
Chen Baoguo was amused: "Which couple living together still keeps accounts?"
"As for us, I have my own way of keeping accounts.
You earn seventy or eighty yuan a month, and I only earn thirty yuan a month. Your salary is much higher than mine.
Since you have given me all your salary, I must remember it clearly. What if I don't have that money anymore in the future, how should I explain it to you?
It’s not easy for you to make money.”
After listening to this, Chen Baoguo held He Damei's hand tightly.
"My wife is more attentive, but I earn money to support you."
"No, you have to earn money not only to support me, but also to support your family.
Don’t forget that before you earn money, your elder brother and sister-in-law are also responsible for supporting the family.”
"Yes, yes, that's what my wife said."
Chen Baoguo felt that it was his blessing to have such an understanding wife.
When Tian Yujun was about to reach the gate of the compound, Chen Jianguo, who had said he would not come to pick her up, came again.
It was a sunny day today and she got off work early. When she was about to reach the gate of the compound, the gloomy sky turned black.
Chen Jianguo saw a lot of oil paper bags hanging on the hood of Tian Yujun's car and asked him, "What are those hanging on the hood? Why are there so many?"
"As for the prescription that Damei gave me, didn't I tell you about it some time ago? Did you forget?"
Chen Jianguo almost forgot about this.
“So many?”
"I asked the doctor before buying the medicine. She said there was nothing wrong with the prescription. It was just a medicine to strengthen the body. I had to take it for a month to see the effect."
2 months?
Chen Jianguo: "How much do these medicines cost?"
"Eight dollars."
When Chen Jianguo heard this, he felt pain in his heart.
Eight dollars a month, that’s forty-eight dollars a month, which seems a bit expensive.
But he couldn't help drinking, so he would just leave it like this for now.
Chen Jianguo asked: "Wife, can we discuss this matter of me taking medicine?"
"What are you discussing?"
"This Chinese medicine is really too bitter. I'll take it for a few days before the New Year. I also want to have a few drinks with Qingdong and the others during the New Year, so can I stop taking it for a few days?"
Tian Yujun agreed when he thought about it. He had worked hard for a year and this was his only request at the end of the year, so he must satisfy it.
"Hello, then don't drink it for now. Wait until after the New Year."
"I'm so tired, wife."
As soon as the two men got downstairs, they heard the sound of an accordion coming from the second floor. Without much thought, they knew it was Jiang Wanbo practicing the accordion.
She will not perform on New Year's Eve this year.
The 㫧 Workers' Group came to see her a few days ago, but she refused because she was too busy at the time. This year, it all depends on Jiang Wan's performance.
When Chen Jianguo was about to go upstairs, with the help of the light at the entrance of the building, he discovered that Tian Yujun had tied a pitch-black pig leg to the back of his car.
Chen Jianguo looked at the ham and said disdainfully: "Where did this pork leg come from? It's so black."
Tian Yujun knew that he had never seen it. If he had eaten it, he would not say so.
This thing is not famous yet, but it is indeed a good thing. People who don’t like it can’t get used to it, but people who like it love it very much.
Don't be fooled by its ugly appearance, it is really delicious.
Tian Yujun: "It's the ham that Baoguo brought from Sichuan."
"What the hell? Ham?
Does ham look like this? "
Chen Jianguo looked as if he had never seen it before. He reached out his hand to touch it, then bent down to smell it.
Tian Yujun looked at it and expressed helplessness.
She said: "Take it first and talk later."
Chen Jianguo untied the rope, picked up Ham in his hand, and went upstairs with Tian Yujun.
"How do you eat this?"
"It's good to eat it raw or fried."
"Eat it raw? If you eat this thing raw, will you be poisoned to death?"
Tian Yuju was amused and said, "I'll eat it for you to see after I go."
"How about we catch a mouse and try it first?"
Why does Tian 㫧-kun feel that this sentence sounds so familiar?
As soon as the two entered the room, Tian Yujun took off the scarf around his neck.
The room was warm. Chen Jianguo threw the ham in his hand next to the table leg. He was afraid of dirtying the table if he put it on the table.
Tian Yujun took one look and said, "Why did you put the ham under the table?"
Tian 㫧君 said this, picked it up and went straight to the kitchen.
She turned around and asked Chen Jianguo, who was standing at the kitchen door: "Do you want to eat?"
Chen Jianguo took a look and shook his head: "I'd better not eat it."
Tian Yujun couldn't help but smile when he saw his vigilant look.
She didn't rush to peel the skin. She took the white rice and planned to cook it into steamed rice, and then make ham fried rice for Chen Jianguo.
Chen Jianguo: "Why are you washing rice?"
“I’ll steam rice for you and make dinner.
You said you don't want to eat this ham, right?"
"Yes, I don't eat it."
Tian Yujun smiled and said, "Then don't take my bowl when the time comes."
