The days passed by uneventfully, and every day seemed to be without any ripples, just like a pool of stagnant water.
In the blink of an eye, it was time for Zhou Huaian to go on vacation.
The food in the village had been distributed long ago.
Su Qingxue also took advantage of the grain distribution in the village to buy a lot of grain and bought enough food for three people for a year.
Although some people in the village looked unhappy, thinking that they were not working but were still sharing the village's food.
But the team leader and the old village chief both agreed, and what's more, they paid the same price as the supply and marketing cooperative, so although they were unhappy, no one spoke out against it.
Su Qingxue didn't care whether the other person looked good or not. Since he didn't dance in front of her, she just pretended not to see it.
After all, she herself knew that her life was too easy and the people in the village were envious and jealous of her. But she wouldn't lose any money, so she just ignored them.
Anyway, it's good for me.
There is very little rice here, so I bought very little. Most of the time I bought wheat and corn kernels, and I also bought a lot of other coarse grains.
It’s enough for three people to eat for a year, and they don’t have to save on food.
If there were only three of them, it would definitely be enough, but they also had to help the people in the bullpen, so it still wasn't enough.
Fortunately, the rest can be bought directly on the black market, and then I can also secretly release some from the space.
The distribution of food took place more than a month ago. By the time Zhou Huaian was about to go on vacation, the village began to slaughter the New Year pig.
Originally, Su Qingxue didn’t want to buy it, after all, there was never a shortage of meat at home.
But when Feng Xue came to her house to ask her out, and she looked so pregnant and greedy, she decided to go with her.
Although there is no shortage of meat at home, the smell is bound to spread out. If you don’t buy some, it would be really suspicious.
Others don't need to think about it, they can guess that he must have bought the meat on the black market or hunted prey in the mountains.
When slaughtering a pig, every household brings a large basin to prepare the food for the slaughter.
Everyone can bring a basin, fill it up almost completely, and then everyone will take it home to eat.
No one was willing to finish the whole pot of meat at once, so they all prepared to take it home and divide it into several meals, eating a little at each meal.
When it came time to slaughter the pigs, everyone was treated equally, whether they were educated youth or villagers, they all took basins and went to collect the food.
Su Qingxue and Feng Xue also went there with a basin in their hands. Although the pig-killing dish contained some pig offal, pickled cabbage, radish and Chinese cabbage, they didn't know how they were cooked, but it tasted delicious.
At least Su Qingxue felt that she couldn't make such a delicious pig-killing dish.
When the pork was being distributed, I was ready to line up, only to find that there was already a long line of people in front of me.
Others would send out several people from each family, one would line up to get pork while the other would line up to get the pig-slaughtering dishes, without any delay at all.
Zhou Huaian was at home looking after the children and couldn't come with him. Sun Rui did come, but they were from two different families, so they must take their own. This way he could get more.
Looking at the people distributing pork in front of her, everyone wanted the fatter parts, and Su Qingxue's worries were instantly gone.
I have plenty of oil and water, and I don't like fatty meat, which is different from them.
When it was my turn, I realized that I had thought too well and there was nothing good left.
Only some ribs and lean meat were left, and the pig's trotters were also exchanged for those families with nursing children.
Because there were not many people behind her, Su Qingxue only got two pounds of ribs, but she felt that it was not enough for three people to eat together, so she spent more than one yuan to buy three more pounds.
Finally, Feng Xue and I went back carrying a pot of pig-killing dishes and some spare ribs.
"Feng Xue, your belly looks quite big, how many months will it take for the baby to be born?"
Su Qingxue was just making small talk, but it was also what she wanted to know.
Feng Xue had a more maternal glow than before, and seemed to be even more beautiful than when they first met.
Su Qingxue felt that it must be because she married the right person. Only when you marry the right person will you become more and more beautiful.
If you marry the wrong person, the various tortures of life alone will make you feel exhausted, so how can you expect to look good?
Feng Xue now speaks in a gentle and tender manner, which is a huge change compared to her previous careless nature.
She said in a very gentle tone, "Yes, it's been five months now. The baby will be born in another four months. By then the snow will have melted and the weather will have warmed up. I think the confinement period shouldn't be too hard."
Her hand unconsciously touched her belly. She never thought that life would be so good now.
When I first decided to go to the countryside, I had no choice but to go, and my family said they would continue to subsidize me, but I was still nervous.
The sisters who went to the countryside looked very old when they came back, and they looked ten or twenty years older than their actual age.
I was worried that I would become like those sisters, and I was very panicked.
But she didn't expect to meet the person who would accompany her for the rest of her life here. She is not afraid of her current life at all. On the contrary, she feels it is particularly good.
Because if she didn't go to the countryside, she felt that her life might not be as good as it is now.
Unlike now when it’s just a couple living together, if it were in the city, a whole family would live together, and all kinds of conflicts would definitely make life a mess.
"Looking at the way you are now, I know you are doing well. By the way, when you are about to give birth, will your mother and mother-in-law come to see you?"
