Chapter 260 Wan Anlang
At four o'clock the next morning, it was so cold that every breath I exhaled was covered with white mist.
He Yuan and He Yuxiang met and walked towards the supply and marketing cooperative.
Footsteps crunched on the frosty road.
Seeing that He Yuxiang didn't have gloves, He Yuan took off his own gloves and gave them to him: "Don't get frostbite from the cold."
He Yuxiang wanted to refuse.
He Yuan forced him to put on gloves.
He Yuxiang felt warmer with gloves on.
He was actually wearing very thick clothes.
He wore the rabbit fur vest and cotton coat and trousers that his aunt had made for him.
He is warmer now than ever before.
It was only five o'clock in the morning and the door of the supply and marketing cooperative was still closed, but quite a few people had already gathered at the door.
Under the dim street lights, people were wearing thick cotton coats. Some were sitting on their own small benches, while others were standing and pacing back and forth.
He Yuan and He Yuxiang found a position near the front and stood there.
A woman in a green headscarf in front of us lowered her voice and said, "I heard there are only two pigs today."
"I heard that the pork at the supply and marketing cooperative was sold out in ten minutes yesterday."
Someone agreed.
They all frowned and looked extremely sad.
He Yuxiang was very worried. His uncle only had two days off, and he didn’t know how much pork he could get today.
As soon as the sun came out, the wooden door of the supply and marketing cooperative creaked.
The crowd immediately became agitated, like a hornet's nest that had been poked.
He Yuan immediately took He Yuxiang's hand.
He Yuxiang felt a little awkward.
As far as I can remember, his father never held his hand like that.
But the supply and marketing cooperative was crowded, and he was safe with his uncle holding his hand.
"Don't push! Follow the order!"
The salesman, Lao Zhang, stood at the door and yelled, but no one listened to him.
The team broke up in an instant, and people rushed forward.
After entering the supply and marketing cooperative, I saw several large meat tables piled with fresh pork.
The crowd rushed to the meat counter like a tide, and instantly surrounded the entire counter.
"I want five pounds!"
"I want three pounds!"
"Cut me a piece first!"
…
There was a constant noise and the salesmen were busy weighing and cutting the meat.
I couldn't even hear who was whose.
Whoever gets it first gets it.
A salesperson stood on a stool and held up a loud speaker, shouting: "One person is limited to buying two kilograms. You can only buy two kilograms. You can't take more out of the supply and marketing cooperative."
He Yuan and He Yuxiang bought four kilograms immediately.
Two pounds of fat and two pounds of pork belly.
After getting the pork, the two men squeezed through the crowd with difficulty.
Old Lady Qin felt jealous and envious when she saw He Yuan bought four pounds of pork in a short time.
When it comes to grabbing meat, it's best for men to do it.
But her two sons thought it was too early to get up and asked her to come more often to buy pork.
Anyway, based on past years' experience, if she came a few more days, she would always be able to grab some pork, so why let them waste their time?
Old Lady Qin wanted to ask He Yuan for help.
But she wanted to squeeze out, but she couldn't, so she could only stay in the middle.
After the uncle and nephew gave the money respectively, they quickly left the supply and marketing cooperative.
He Yuan asked: "Is four pounds enough?"
“It should be about the same.”
In order to prepare for the New Year, he talked to Grandpa Zhang in advance and asked him to get him three pounds of bacon.
Seven pounds of meat.
It's already luxurious.
The old man was still standing at the door. When he saw He Yuan and He Yuxiang coming out, he asked, "Is there much meat in the house?"
He Yuxiang shook his head: "When we bought it, almost all the pigs were sold out."
As expected, the salesman shouted, "Sold out, both pigs are sold out."
An old man beat his chest and stamped his feet: "I've been waiting for three days and still haven't gotten a chance."
He Yuxiang felt very sympathetic towards him.
At the same time, I was extremely grateful that my uncle came back at the most critical moment.
The uncle and nephew spent the next whole day preparing New Year's goods.
When Chen Qing got off work, he saw the fried food at home and said, "Can it really last until the New Year?"
It smells really good!
She really wants to eat it now.
He Yuxiang: "We have to wait until after the Chinese New Year to eat it."
Chen Qing was incredulous: "Really?"
"real."
He Yuxiang nodded heavily.
Chen Qing felt lost.
Xiaoyu was completely depressed.
It’s so painful to have something so delicious at home but only be able to look at it but not eat it.
Chen Qing asked He Yuxiang: "Won't it go bad if left like this?"
"Won't."
Even if it goes bad, it will just become a little bit sour, and eating it won't kill you.
He Yuxiang is very experienced in this regard.
Chen Qing sighed again.
Xiaoyu was very depressed.
Chen Qing asked, "How are your grades?"
He Yuxiang: “Just like that.”
Xiaoyu: "Double one hundred."
"sharp!"
Chen Qing rewarded each person with one dollar.
Xiaoyu habitually gives money to her brother.
He Yuxiang felt that the greatest significance of getting a perfect score was that his aunt was very happy.
He Yuan discussed with He Yuxiang: "Let's steam some oil fruit first? Or take out the shrimp chips and eat them first."
"No, they will keep pestering you for more after they eat it."
He Yuxiang firmly refused.
This is New Year’s goods!
He Yuan returned with failure and spread his hands to Chen Qing.
"He won't let me."
"Forget it, I won't eat it then."
Chen Qing was helpless.
The family packed up and went to the state-owned hotel.
When in the state-owned restaurant, Chen Qing was surprised to see shrimp cakes!!!
"I want fifteen."
The waitress at the state-owned restaurant was still the older sister. Seeing that Chen Qing wanted so much, she smiled and said, "I heard that you two got promoted. Congratulations."
"Thank you, thank you."
Chen Qing replied with a smile.
He Yuan also followed suit to express his gratitude.
He found the words 'young couple' very useful.
The family placed their order and waited for He Yuan's friends to come over.
Wan Anlang arrived late and apologized to them: "Sorry, I'm lost."
He Yuan replied calmly: "It's okay."
He's used to it.
He introduced both parties.
Wan Anlang was wearing a blue Zhongshan suit. He was about 1.8 meters tall, with an upright figure, thick hair, bright eyes, and a unique spirit.
Chen Qing looked at the person in front of him and said with a smile, "Hello, Comrade Wan."
Seeing that Chen Qing was He Yuan's partner, Wan Anlang smiled and said, "Hello, sister-in-law."
When he came to the machinery factory today, he saw Chen Qing and was very surprised.
He felt a little regretful that there was such a beauty in the machinery factory. He heard that she was the factory flower and had a partner.
When he saw that Chen Qing was He Yuan, he felt that they were a perfect match.
Wan Anlang handed Chen Qing the gift he had prepared earlier: "This is Sanzi, a specialty of our hometown. It's delicious. You can try it."
Chen Qing took it: "Thank you."
Xiaoyu stared at her.
Chen Qing broke off one and gave it to her.
He Yuxiang glared at his aunt.
Chen Qing pretended not to see.
Xiaoyu nibbled on it bit by bit, just like a little hamster, smiling with eyes curved into eyes.
Wan Anlang is a talkative person, so he asked Xiaoyu, "Is it delicious?"
Xiaoyu squinted her eyes happily and nodded: "It's super delicious, thank you uncle, your hometown must be very good."
Wan Anlang was amused: "You are really good at talking."
The food had already been served, and everyone started eating after he arrived.
