"Okay, give me some meat coupons and fifty yuan, and I'll go buy some meat and ask my aunt to make braised pork for you tonight."
"Fifty?" Liu Jiajia was shocked by the number and shrieked! "What kind of meat would cost fifty yuan? Are you going to buy a pig? Why would our family need such a huge expense?"
Su Gan put his index finger to his lips and quickly made a "hush" gesture to her.
He lowered his voice, "Keep your voice down! It's not nice if someone hears us! We didn't bring anything for Grandpa, Uncle, or Auntie before we came. I was thinking, why don't you buy them some gifts while we're here?"
We'll have to stay in Kyoto for more than a week this time, so we should eat and drink at home, and we should also add some food to the family!"
Liu Jiajia was extremely unwilling, but since Su Gan had said so, if she refused, it would seem like she was too ignorant!
But now all her savings added up to less than fifty yuan!
She hardened her heart and took out two Great Unity coupons, five catties of meat coupons, and five catties of national food coupons from her pocket.
"I didn't bring much this time. These are all I have. I'll give them all to you!" Liu Jiajia stuffed the money and bills into Su Gan's hands and blinked at him.
"The roast duck you mentioned, my baby and I both want to eat it, so remember to buy some. Also, buy some of those Peking duck and pea yellow! And for the meat, buy pork belly. The one with the right amount of fat and lean meat makes the most delicious braised pork."
Every time Liu Jiajia said something, Su Gan weighed the money in his hand. Roast duck was 10 yuan each, pork belly was 76 cents per pound, and buying three pounds would cost 2.28 yuan. A set of Beijing Eight Pieces was 2.8 yuan, and pea yellow was 50 cents per pound. That was more than 15 yuan minus, not counting the tickets.
Liu Jiajia kept talking, "I heard that the whitening cream that everyone in Hai City is scrambling for is from Kyoto. Go ask around and buy me a bottle. My face has been getting rougher since I got pregnant..."
Su Gan: “…” He remembered Sun Jiajia saying that a bottle of whitening cream cost ten yuan!
Hearing that his wife only brought this much money, Su Gan felt uncomfortable, but he couldn't say much! He thought, forget it, I'll buy the gift next time!
In the afternoon, Su Kun felt something strange in his arm, and the tingling sensation gradually became more pronounced. He hadn't expected his cousin's medicine to be so effective. In less than half a day, he had regained feeling in his arm.
"Guo'er~Mom~I feel it, I feel it!" He jumped down the stairs in two or three steps, his eyes filled with ecstasy after the excitement.
"What did you say?" Yu Lei suspected she had misheard. She grabbed her little son, who was constantly jumping, and said in disbelief, "Say it again, what's wrong with you?"
Su Kun looked into her eyes and said solemnly, "Mom, I can feel my arm now. I can feel it now!"
"Conscious again?" Yu Lei went from being shocked to being happy, and finally crying with tears in her eyes.
"Okay, that's great!" She wiped her tears and punched Su Kun's shoulder hard. "It's all thanks to your little sister that I saved your arm this time! I tell you, from now on, your life belongs to your little sister! If you hurt it again, I will punish you!"
"I know, I know, mother! I will protect this arm as if it were my life from now on!" Su Kun raised his lips and smiled, revealing his white and neat teeth.
He was so glad that he came to Kyoto this time, and was glad that he had such an outstanding cousin! He secretly remembered this kindness of his cousin in his heart.
Looking at her second cousin's sunny smile, Lan Guoer couldn't help but think of her third brother.
I have to say that this second cousin is not only about the same age as the third cousin, but they also look somewhat similar, especially when they smile, their expressions are exactly the same.
But in Xiaofang Village today, Su Xing was not smiling at all. He was receiving an unexpected guest with a gloomy face.
"Why are you here?" Su Xing frowned and poured a glass of water for the woman.
"I heard that the scenery here is nice, come and take a look!" Chu Ying sat on the kang in the room, wearing a military uniform and looking up with a bright smile.
Su Xing leaned against the window, which was open. Worried about the bad reputation of Chu Ying, Su Xing deliberately left the door and windows open, as they were alone in the same room.
He kept the greatest distance from Chu Ying in the room. "It's all farmland, what's there to see? Finish your water, while it's still early, and go back!"
Chu Ying was a little unhappy when she heard this. She frowned and said, "I'm not in a hurry, why are you in a hurry?" She glanced out the window with her big eyes and said, "I'm here now, why don't you take me around?"
Lu Jun said that there were many female educated youth in their educated youth center, and she had always remembered it! These days, she was always worried, afraid that the man she liked would be taken away by another woman first.
Knowing that she was Xiaomei's friend, Su Xing couldn't be rude to her! But he still kept a straight face and said, "You, a girl, are wandering around the village with a man. It's not good for you if people see you!"
Chu Ying's lips formed a straight line. The man she liked was indeed impeccable! He was upright and thoughtful, and he even took her reputation into consideration.
She stood up and glanced at Su Xing by the window. "Then let's go for a walk around your educated youth camp!" Then she walked to the door and looked around the yard. "It's almost noon. Aren't the educated youth going to work yet?"
Su Xing stood behind her listlessly, his tone neither cold nor indifferent, "It should be soon!"
Because someone came to look for him, the team leader called him back from the field, and it was not yet time to get off work.
Chu Ying turned around and asked, "What are you having for lunch? Who's cooking?"
She remembered Lu Jun saying that they often lived with female educated youth! Today she wanted to see what the female educated youth they lived with looked like.
Su Xing didn't answer her question. He frowned and said, "I'll take you to town for lunch. After lunch, you can go back! As a girl, don't go out alone all the time."
Although Su Xing's tone was stiff, if you think about it carefully, you can see his concern for her between the lines. Chu Ying couldn't help feeling a little proud.
She leaned forward slightly in front of Su Xing and asked, "Are you concerned about me?"
Su Xing: “…” You are really self-indulgent. Who cares about you?
Seeing that he, a grown man, blushed in front of her, Chu Ying pursed her lips and stopped teasing him.
Footsteps could be heard from outside the compound as the educated youth walked in with heavy steps. The sunlight shone on them, illuminating the traces of sweat and dust.
Seeing the strange woman in the courtyard, everyone cast inquiring glances at her, especially the female educated youth, who looked her up and down without hesitation, some even whispering comments about her.
As the mainstay of the art troupe, Chu Ying's job was to be admired by the public! What did this little spectacle mean to her?
She returned their gazes one by one, the smile in her eyes growing wider and wider.
