Chapter 31, Sending a Hare
According to statistics, there are quite a few people in the village who are willing to install electrical wires, but now it is not a matter of whether you are willing or not, but every household has to install it.
The lines are subsidized by the government. You only need to pay for the electrical wires and light bulbs in your home, and you don't have to pay for anything else. Of course, the electricity meter costs money, but the black meter doesn't cost much, just a dozen yuan.
In other words, Grandma He can still get her fifty yuan back.
Grandma He was so happy about this.
The first one asked to install it for his own home.
But people have to load the supplies in from every house outside. Grandma He’s house is at the innermost part of the village, so it will take at least three days to load the supplies in.
In this regard, Grandma He has complained a lot about those who were reluctant to install it before but now do it as soon as they hear it's free.
But she couldn't do anything about those people in the country and could only obey.
Mei Xue walked back with two rabbits in her hands. As soon as she came back, she heard a group of people talking by the stream. She didn't listen carefully. She just wanted to go home quickly and give her grandma a surprise.
But when she got home, she didn't see her grandmother, and no one from the mountain was at home.
That is to say, except for her, everyone else was by the stream.
Mei Xue was speechless and had to come back to deal with the rabbit first, otherwise it would have a bad smell if left for too long.
Everything in the space is fine, and the things inside will not be damaged.
But after taking it back, she couldn't put it back in the space.
Mei Xue was so skillful in cutting open the belly that she didn't even stop.
She was washing the rabbit by the well in the yard when she heard voices coming from the ridge of the field below. When she heard it was An Liang, Mei Xue hurriedly stood up and called him.
"An Liang, come up for a moment. I have something to talk to you about." An Liang was still a child, so Mei Xue didn't need to worry too much about him.
What's more, he is my own cousin, so there will be no problem.
When He Anliang heard the voice, he saw An Ze's wife calling him, and immediately responded with a smile: "Sister-in-law, I'll be there right away." Without asking what it was.
Mei Xue smiled and shook her head, looking at the person running up.
After a while, An Liang arrived at the door of his house, and there was another person coming with him, who was none other than An Wen from Aunt Xilian's family.
"Sister-in-law, do you want to ask me something?"
"Now that you are here, please come in and sit down." Mei Xue said politely.
An Liang shook his head. "No, I just came back from chopping trees. I have to go home and take a shower. If you have anything to do, just tell me and I'll help you."
"Nothing." Mei Xue smiled, knowing that he was trying to avoid suspicion. "Take this rabbit. Your mother bought it from me last time. It's exactly five kilograms. The money is just right. I won't give you the change."
Mei Xue handed the rabbit to An Liang. An Liang knew his family and knew that the rabbit was definitely not bought by his mother. He glanced at Brother An Wen beside him and seemed to understand.
"Oh, my mother said that it has been several days, why hasn't my sister-in-law caught the rabbit yet." An Liang smiled foolishly.
An Wen didn't know whether he really didn't think much about it or believed their conversation, and he listened quietly the whole time.
But when leaving, An Wen asked where the rabbit was caught, as he also planned to catch one.
Of course Mei Xue did not hide it and told the place where she found the rabbit.
After hearing this, An Wen thanked him and left Mei Xue's house with An Liang.
On the way back, An Wen looked at the rabbit in An Liang's hand with envy.
He didn't have the ability to catch a rabbit, but when he saw his third grandmother's sister-in-law catching a rabbit, he became anxious and asked her.
He regretted it very much at this time.
An Liang looked at Brother An Wen. Knowing Brother An Wen, he was not such a person. "Brother An Wen, what happened to you just now?"
Hearing An Liang's question, An Wen felt a little embarrassed, "Well, I also want to eat rabbit meat, so..." His face turned red, it seemed that he really didn't mean it.
"Oh, it's okay. Wait until my mom cooks it tonight and I'll bring it to you." An Liang was very generous to his cousin.
Children in the countryside all do this, sharing good food with their good friends.
An Wen looked grateful, "Thank you, I don't eat much, just a few pieces will be enough."
"no problem."
At the door of Anwen's house, the two separated and went home.
When Aunt Meilian came back, she saw a skinned rabbit in the basin on her stove.
"An Liang, who brought this?" Meat is very precious, and ordinary people would not send it.
Meilian was suspicious.
An Liang was working on his lucky grass behind the house. There had been too much rain in recent days and he was afraid that the lucky grass would be drowned.
When I heard my mother's voice, I immediately replied, "Mom, I'm behind the house. The rabbit was given to me by An Ze's sister-in-law."
Shaking off the dirt on his hands, An Liang walked into the kitchen, "Mom, my sister-in-law is really amazing. She caught this rabbit herself."
"By the way, Mom, did you give money to my sister-in-law to buy a rabbit?" An Liang was skeptical, but he also wanted to confirm it.
Aunt Meilian picked up the rabbit and took a look at it. It was very clean and could be cut and fried.
"No." When did she give Xiaoxue money?
"Xiaoxue said I bought this rabbit?"
After getting his mother's answer, An Liang had an expression that said, "Maybe Brother An Wen was beside me when he gave me the rabbits, and my sister-in-law couldn't give me two, so she made an excuse."
"Oh, I get it. You should remember your Third Grandma more in the future and send her some good things if you have any." He knew that Xiaoxue was doing this for his own good.
I have to say, Aunt Meilian was quite happy.
"I've cooked for you two tonight. Do you want stir-fried meat or stewed meat?" Aunt Meilian didn't think too much about it. Just take it. You owe a lot, so this little bit won't make a difference.
"It's spicy and goes well with rice. Mom, you should chop the meat into smaller pieces, otherwise it won't have any flavor." An Liang looked greedy.
"Okay, I'll chop it into smaller pieces for you."
When Grandma He came back, the aroma of food was already wafting from the house.
As soon as she smelled it, she knew it was Xiaoxue's doing.
Just because Xiaoxue is willing to use more oil, the taste can't be cooked by other families, "Xiaoxue, grandma is back."
Mei Xue had just finished picking the last vegetable when she heard her grandmother's voice and immediately responded from the kitchen, "Grandma, come in and eat."
"What did you cook today? It smells so good that I could smell it on the way back." Grandma He found her towel on the wall, went to the well at the back to wash her face, and then walked into the kitchen.
"Rabbit meat. I found a nest of rabbits on the hillside next to our field and caught a few. Look, grandma." Mei Xue said to Grandma He with a proud look on her face, pointing to the marinated rabbit meat hanging on the wall behind the house.
Seeing the plump rabbit hanging behind her house, Grandma He smiled so hard that her teeth were visible. "Great, my Xiaoxue is really capable."
"Yeah, I also think I'm capable." Mei Xue raised her head with pride.
"You are such a smart guy. Okay, let's eat."
Eat a full lunch so that you will have energy to work in the afternoon.
Remember to vote, thank you!
