Chapter 138 Canned Beef

If we use Pechoin, the effect will definitely be better.

Huang Xiaoyue was really happy.

The two chatted for a while, and then Huang Xiaoyue went back. She had just married into the Liu family, and it was not convenient for her to stay outside for too long.

Liu Yinyin asked her to take a bowl of brined pork back.

She kept some of the halite dish she made last night.

Originally, I wanted to bring it over at noon today, but Jiang Cuihua said that she had arranged twelve dishes and did not want her salami.

At noon, both tables were completely eaten up, and in the evening some brined meat was sent back as a side dish.

The bowl of salted pork that Liu Yinyin scooped for Huang Xiaoyue was quite large, with pork head, pig ears, fatty intestines, and half a pig tail, weighing at least two or three pounds.

Huang Xiaoyue now really believed that her sister-in-law not only had a good family background, but was also generous.

In the evening, Liu Yinyin didn't cook anything. She just cut a plate of salinated meat, stir-fried some cabbage, and steamed a bowl of chicken egg custard and a few corn buns.

It’s getting dark early now, so it’s time for Gu Cheng to come back and have dinner.

When Gu Cheng came back today, he not only brought back dozens of kilograms of food from the county compound, but also brought back a large package.

Carrying the package for Liu Yinyin to pack.

Liu Yinyin asked curiously, "Are you exchanging things with your friend again?"

Gu Cheng kept in constant contact with his former comrades-in-arms. Sometimes, he would ask them to send some things to him, and then he would send some food back to them.

It can't be considered a transaction, but there is a give and take, and some things are known to everyone.

However, this time she guessed wrong.

Gu Cheng shook his head and said no: "I bought things in the capital, there were too many to carry, so I sent a package back, and it just arrived today."

Liu Yinyin was surprised: "There's more!"

She gave Gu Cheng five hundred yuan. The things he bought last time were enough. The fabrics and food were all high-end goods and definitely not cheap.

Prices in the capital are high, and 500 yuan probably isn't going to be that much of a stretch.

I don't know what he sent back.

Liu Yinyin likes to open packages. She took a pair of scissors and started to unpack things before she even had time to eat.

I unpacked the package and took things out. There were mostly food in it.

A large bag of beef jerky, several bags of milk powder, cheese, canned beef, and a rolled-up woolen mattress.

Liu Yinyin: “…”

Did this man get rich?

If he said that he bought all of them, Liu Yinyin would definitely not believe it. Even though the capital is a big city, there are some things that you can't buy as much as you want.

Besides, beef is not cheap.

Even in the capital, in a small county like theirs, there is no beef to sell. Cows are an important labor force in the fields and cannot be slaughtered easily.

Liu Yinyin wondered, "Did you buy all these?"

See the man nod.

Liu Yinyin glanced at him and said with a half-smile: "Tell me the truth, did you hide some private money?"

As soon as Gu Cheng received his salary, he would put it into her purse, and Liu Yinyin would put away the big money in time.

There was only some pocket money in the cash box, but she saw that Gu Cheng rarely spent money.

Only a few times when I bought food did I spend a lot of money.

"No." Gu Cheng said seriously. He usually didn't have much to spend money on, so there was no need to save any pocket money.

Liu Yinyin was overjoyed when she heard this: "Then is 500 yuan enough for you to buy so many things?"

Gu Cheng also laughed and told the truth: "I didn't buy this bag of stuff. It was given to me by someone I know."

He helped that person, and in return, that person sent him some food.

Liu Yinyin nodded and asked him, "There are so many things. How about we send him some food like before?"

There were beef jerky and canned beef, both of which were expensive things. There were at least 20 to 30 kilograms of beef jerky and ten boxes of canned beef.

There are also cheese, toffee, and woolen mattresses, which are not cheap. With the current prices, you can't buy them without three or four hundred yuan.

What a great favor! It's worth it for the other party to give so much.

"Not this time." Gu Cheng disagreed this time. "Let's just leave it like this, or he will send things to me again in the future."

If you keep sending them back and forth, there will be no end to it.

Liu Yinyin was silent and said nothing more. Gu Cheng must have his reasons for doing this. She guessed that she really owed him a favor this time.

However, she was a little curious: "Does your friend... raise a lot of cows at home?"

The food they sent was all made from beef or milk, and should be the local specialty.

Otherwise, I wouldn't spend money to buy so many expensive things.

Gu Cheng helped her pack her things and just said, "That's about it."

Liu Yinyin looked at the cabinet full of food and said contentedly, "We can't eat so many good things. You can bring the canned beef to the factory for lunch in the future, otherwise it will go bad after a long time."

Because the harvest is bad this year and there are fewer people raising pigs in the countryside, the food in the factory canteen is not very good now. Gu Cheng is a grown man, so how can he not eat something good?

This man has lost weight recently.

After they finished packing and had dinner, Liu Yinyin gave him several pieces of salted meat and said sternly, "Eat more. Men need to eat more meat to have strength. You are the pillar of the family, you can't fall down."

Gu Cheng laughed and said, "It's not that serious. I just need to have a full meal."

People at this time are easily satisfied, and being well fed and warmly clothed is the greatest happiness.

Unfortunately...this requirement cannot be met by many people nowadays.

Liu Yinyin shook her head, not wanting to think about these troublesome things.

The beef jerky and cheese given by my friend Gu Cheng tasted very good and the beef jerky was not too hard.

Cheese is also delicious. It is concentrated from pure milk. It is pure natural and has no additives. It is very nutritious.

Liu Yinyin couldn't bear to eat it herself, and saved it for Gu Yanyan to eat slowly.

The school was closed for the day.

Liu Yinyin had nothing to do, so she took out the cotton she had changed before and made a cotton underpants for Gu Yanyan.

well!

The weather today is particularly abnormal. There was drought in spring and summer, and hail and heavy rain during the autumn harvest.

Winter has arrived... The New Year is almost here, but there has not been a single snowfall in Liujia Village.

Everyone in the village is in a panic right now. The New Year is coming soon. If it doesn't snow, the soil will lack moisture and next year's harvest will definitely be affected.

Liu Yinyin sighed. She was making quilts in her room with a fire burning in the fireplace next to her.

It's still quite cold outside, the temperature should be below zero, but God just doesn't snow, which is also strange.

There were two sweet potatoes roasting in the fireplace.

Liu Yinyin was reluctant to eat the dozens of kilograms of sweet potatoes that Li Chunfang gave her before, so she saved them for roasting.

She still thinks sweet potatoes taste better when roasted.

Not only her, Gu Yanyan also likes to eat roasted sweet potatoes.

At this moment, the boy was squatting beside the fireplace, staring at the sweet potatoes inside, his saliva almost flowing out.
