After a while, Xiao Zheng finished making the stove and the grill. The grill is a round plate woven with iron wire, you can put the meat directly on it to grill, and you can also skewer it and grill it.
An Hua decided to have a barbecue on the Winter Solstice and invited Xiao Fangfang's family and Zhou Meihua's family to come over.
When Xiao Fangfang and Geng Biao came, they were carrying two kilograms of beef ribs.
Zhou Meihua also went to the service center to buy some fresh pork, and added some sausages and spicy cabbage that she had made herself, and brought them over together.
Wang Caiyan muttered quietly, "Bring so much meat here, we won't be able to eat up what we prepared."
An Hua said, "If you can, eat it all. There are more people, so there is more to eat. Besides, considering Lao Xiao and Chief of Staff Shi's appetite, they can finish any amount of meat."
Wang Caiyan smiled, "That's right. By the way, the pickled garlic I pickled a few days ago should be ready to eat. Can you pack some out?"
An Hua nodded, "Peel some more garlic, peel more, to relieve the greasiness."
Due to limited conditions and the lack of cabbage leaves, An Hua made some thin pancakes that could be used to wrap the meat like roast duck.
While the two were busy, Zhou Meihua and Xiao Fangfang walked in.
"Wow, it's so busy! Let me help. What can I do?"
An Hua didn't hesitate to be polite with them and assigned them some auxiliary tasks.
Zhou Meihua glanced at Wang Caiyan and asked, "Caiyan, how old are you? Have you found a partner?"
Wang Caiyan quickly shook her head, "I don't have a partner, and I don't want to find one for the time being. I'm only nineteen years old, and now I just want to help my aunt take care of the house."
Wang Caiyan's expression was sincere and she spoke from the heart.
Although it is time for her to find a husband at her age, Wang Caiyan has no intention of doing so at all.
Once you get married, you will have to raise children and take care of your own family. Will you have extra energy to help your aunt?
Both are servants, but I get paid when I work for my aunt, but I don't get paid when I marry a man...
Of course, Wang Caiyan didn't say that she would never get married in her life, but the time could be later. Most working female comrades in the city get married at the age of 26. She would at least wait until she was 20 years old before considering marriage!
Wang Caiyan spoke out what was in her heart.
An Hua and Zhou Meihua were both surprised.
Wang Caiyan is usually quiet, and I didn’t expect her to be so thoughtful.
But they both agreed.
Zhou Meihua sighed, "For us women, life is easy and free only when we are young girls. If I were alive in this era, I would definitely not get married so early."
An Hua feels that freedom is only one aspect. Mainly in Wang Caiyan's situation, she has no mother or father to rely on and has to rely on herself for everything. She can save more money first. Anyway, she is young and will be just a college student in the future.
As they talked, they quickly prepared all the materials.
An Hua brought out plates of meat, and the back view of a girl with long braids caught her eye.
"Who is this girl..."
Before he could finish his words, he turned around and faced her.
The "girl" giggled, "Auntie, there is so much meat, my mouth is watering!"
That’s not a girl at all, it’s clearly Shi Xiaojun!
Shi Xiaojun said he wanted to keep his hair to sell for money, so he grew his hair long.
An Hua pinched Shi Xiaojun's braid and said, "Your hair grows really fast, and the hair quality is good. The barber shop will definitely give you a high price."
Shi Xiaojun asked happily: "Really? Can my hair be sold for ten yuan?"
Shi Weiguang said coldly: "Cut off your flesh and sell it to see if it can be worth ten dollars."
Shi Weiguang couldn't stand Shi Xiaojun's behavior of growing his hair to sell for money, as if his family was already so poor that they couldn't even make ends meet.
Xiao Zheng and Shen Jun even laughed at him for having an extra daughter.
He also told Shi Xiaojun that he would pay any amount of money and go get his hair shaved, but for some reason that boy was not right and refused to take his money.
Shi Weiguang was so angry that he almost hit him with a belt.
Shi Xiaojun didn't care how much his father disliked him. He touched his braid and said to An Hua, "Aunt, when I sell my hair, I will buy candied haws for Tuantuan and Yuanyuan."
