Han Zhenyu cut the meat and fried it slowly over low heat according to Su Xieqiu's instructions. When the meat slices were fried until half dry, he quickly took them out.
Seeing Su Xieqiu staring at the meat in the bowl, he couldn't help laughing, picked out a piece that was half fat and half lean, blew it to cool a little, and put it in her mouth.
Su Xieqiu chewed it and found it fragrant and crispy. "It's delicious. Let's make more. We can add some directly to the dishes when we cook them next time. It's also convenient and saves us from having to cut the meat every time."
"Okay, I'll fry another pot." Han Zhenyu was very happy to see that she liked it, and went outside to get a few pieces of meat from the snow.
Su Xieqiu sat in front of the chopping board, watching him cut the meat and eat, and did not forget to feed him.
"Auntie made two pairs of cotton shoes for each of us. They are made of old black coarse cloth. They are very thick, dirt-resistant and warm. I was thinking that you should bring them to Chenchen's parents, but I don't know if the size is suitable?"
In fact, Su Xieqiu really liked those pairs of cotton shoes. She tried them on and although they didn’t look very good, they were really comfortable to wear.
If Han Zhenyu hadn't been in a hurry this time and hadn't had time to prepare, she would have been reluctant to give those pairs of cotton shoes away.
Su Xieqiu made up his mind that next time he saw his aunt, he would ask her to help make two pairs.
"Okay, take it with you. They are not as tall as us, so their cotton shoes should not be too small. If they are too big, you can put insoles in them." Han Zhenyu said.
Su Xieqiu ate a few pieces of fried pork belly and felt a little greasy, so he took a bottle of juice from the space and shared it with Han Zhenyu.
"I'll go to the space tonight to pick up some fabrics. When you take Chenchen and Anan to take pictures tomorrow, go to the supply and marketing cooperative to buy some needles and thread and bring them over with you."
Su Xieqiu thought that with their status, even if they had money, it would not be that convenient for them to buy things. He could bring them some fabrics so that they could make some underwear and small items.
Su Xieqiu discovered some time ago that most women still use menstrual belts when they have their period. I don’t know how Chenchen’s mother solves this problem?
Han Zhenyu looked at her with a smile, "Wife, you are really thoughtful, but you are more careful than me."
Su Xieqiu smiled and raised his eyebrows, then tapped his lips, "Why is this little mouth so sweet?"
Han Zhenyu suppressed his laughter and teased her seriously, "Because my wife smeared honey on me."
“Hahahahahahaha…” The couple laughed at the same time.
"Are you tired? Why don't you lie down on the kang for a while?" Han Zhenyu said.
"Not tired, I'll stay here with you and help light the fire while you fry the noodles." Su Xieqiu hugged his waist from behind, with his face against his back, walking step by step with him.
Seeing her clinging to him, Han Zhenyu was also very happy. He slowed down his pace and turned around to kiss her after a while.
Su Xieqiu was exceptionally docile today and did not reject him, so the two of them kissed and soon hugged each other.
………
After breakfast the next day, Han Zhenyu went to Dujiatun.
He asked his uncle Du to go to the village to hire a mule cart, changed clothes for Chenchen and Anan, and took them to the city to take pictures.
The two children were very excited. Even though they were wrapped tightly, it couldn't stop them from chattering.
"Uncle Han, why are you taking pictures?" Chenchen poked his head out from under the quilt and asked curiously.
Han Zhenyu was afraid that he would catch a cold, so he pressed his little head into the quilt and whispered, "I'm going on a business trip to your parents' place in a few days. They miss you and An An very much, so I'm taking a photo of you and will bring it to your parents."
Chenchen heard this and asked in surprise: "Uncle Han, are you going on a business trip to my dad's place? Can you take me and my sister with you? I miss my parents."
An An also stuck her head out and looked at him with sparkling eyes.
Han Zhenyu sighed in his heart and held the two children in his arms, "Chenchen, An'an, your parents and grandparents are carrying out a very important mission. So they can't see you for the time being. Even if I go there, I can only meet with them secretly."
Chenchen was a little disappointed. Anan was young and didn't have much impression of his parents.
Chenchen was afraid that she would forget her parents, so he often told her about his childhood. So Anan also knew that her parents were working away from home, but would come to pick them up in the future.
Han Zhenyu patted his head and said with a smile: "You two be good. If I see your parents, ask them to write a letter to you two."
Although Chenchen was a little disappointed, he was still very sensible. He said, "Uncle Han, tell my parents and grandparents that my sister and I are fine and we will be very good. Tell them to work hard and not worry about us."
"Chenchen and Anan are such good kids." Han Zhenyu let the two children sit on his lap and then wrapped them in a quilt.
Uncle Du was driving the car in the front. When he heard the conversation between the three people, he felt sad and felt sorry for the two kids.
He thought to himself that the countryside was still better. Although it was a little poor, the family was together and they could be happy even if they suffered a little.
After a while, Chenchen poked his head out again, "Uncle Han, Aunt Su taught me how to read. Now I can write my sister's name and my name, and I can also write mom, dad, grandpa, and grandma. I also know a lot of other words. Can I write a letter to my parents?"
"Oh my, our Chenchen can write now? That's great." Han Zhenyu was very surprised. He really didn't know that his wife taught Chenchen to read.
He first praised the child, and then said, "Chenchen, just write. If there are any words you don't know how to write, ask your uncle Zhongjun to teach you. I will bring the letter to your parents later. They will definitely be very happy when they see it."
"Thank you, Uncle Han." Chenchen's eyes sparkled, and he quickly tucked his head into the quilt, whispering with his sister.
Han Zhenyu reminded again, "Chenchen, your parents are keeping it a secret. If this matter gets out, not only your parents and grandparents, but we will also be in danger, so you two must not tell anyone. If someone asks you where your parents are, you two should pretend to be sad and not say a word, understand?"
