Now that she saw that he wasn't curious at all, she couldn't help herself.
"Don't you want to catch ducks to eat?"
Jiang Shubai was a little surprised by her question, but he still told the truth.
"Not only do I want to eat it, I also want its fur."
Seeing that he hadn't guessed what he was thinking, Song Tanglan said this with some pride.
"What do you want that for?"
"I plan to use it to make clothes, but I don't know if it will work."
"It's okay if it doesn't work. I just think it's a waste of fabric. If you don't have fabric coupons, I still have some."
Jiang Shubai was a little distressed with him and comforted him with a smile.
Cheng Fangyuan, who was walking in front of the two of them, heard their conversation and couldn't help but chuckle and explain.
"Xiaobai, keep your cloth coupons for yourself. Have you forgotten what my family does? We have no shortage of cloth!"
"Yes, yes, we still have cloth at home, so we don't need my cousin's cloth coupons."
Song Tanglan felt very close to his words, and when she met his eyes, she knew that he was not joking.
"If it's not enough, come back to me. I can't use the cloth coupons I have anyway."
What Jiang Shubai said was indeed true. Not only did he not have any use for the cloth coupons he had, but in the end, when they were about to expire, he had to exchange them with his aunt in the team, or with Su Tao.
"Don't worry, I have enough. I've given all my extra cloth coupons to Taotao. If I don't have enough, I'll come back to you later."
Seeing that she really didn't need it, Jiang Shubai didn't say anything more. He followed Cheng Fangyuan and started catching ducks.
The two men moved very carefully and in the end, after a lot of effort, they only caught two male ducks.
The feathers from two male ducks were far from enough, but the three were still very happy because they could have stewed duck in the evening.
Cheng Fangyuan also specially invited Jiang Shubai to his home for dinner in the evening. Jiang Shubai agreed without much hesitation. After all, this was not the first time he had dinner at Cheng's house.
Even the old couple from the hunter family were no longer surprised to see him go to Cheng Fangyuan's house for dinner from time to time.
Whenever he greeted them, neither of them would prepare any meal for him.
When Song Tangcheng came home from get off work, she was a little amused and confused when she learned that they really went to catch ducks for duck feathers. She had just said it casually last night, but she didn't expect her younger sister to take it seriously, and her husband even followed her foolishly to really catch ducks.
"You two really went to catch ducks. I was just saying it casually. How much hair can these two ducks have?"
Song Tanglan felt a little embarrassed when she saw her second sister laughing happily. It was really because her second sister suggested it that she did it. She didn't expect that her second sister was just joking at the time.
Seeing his wife like this, Cheng Fangyuan was not angry, but became happy instead.
"It's okay. Even if two ducks aren't enough, we still have meat to eat!"
"Alright, alright, go kill the duck and stew it tonight! As for the duck and goose feathers you requested, I've already spoken to your aunt. She'll get them for you when she returns to her parents' home."
"Then I'll bring some goodies to thank my aunt tomorrow." Song Tanglan was very happy to hear this. Although he didn't know the specific method of making a down jacket, it should be not much different from a padded cotton jacket.
"Then you might have to bring two. Many people in your Aunt Sun's family raise geese. If she helps you get them, you'll have to pay her."
Hearing this, Song Tanglan patted his chest and assured, "Don't worry, I will definitely pay."
She had already thought about it. In addition to the gifts for her two little nephews, if the quantity was enough, she would make one for herself and her family. Of course, she would not forget her partner.
But how much duck feathers you can receive at the end of the year is uncertain.
"That's all you need to know."
Seeing his little sister's naughty look, Song Tangcheng smiled helplessly.
But they didn't talk much and started preparing dinner.
In the evening, a delicious dish of fried duck with ginger was served on the table. When Mumu smelled the fragrance, he started to drool.
He kept shouting, "I want to eat, I want to eat meat."
Song Tanglan looked at his saliva and wiped it helplessly.
"You can eat as soon as your mother comes to the table. Don't worry, I've saved the duck leg for you!"
Song Tangcheng brought out the last vegetable and said with some amusement while looking at Mumu who was lying on the table, staring at the plate of meat in the middle without blinking.
"You can start eating now, stop looking."
Cheng Fangyuan sat down and invited Jiang Shubai to eat. Jiang Shubai came to eat from time to time, and now he was no longer as restrained and polite as he was at the beginning.
However, he had a good sense of propriety and knew not to take advantage of the two sisters. Every time he came to eat, he would bring something with him, sometimes it was food, sometimes it was canned food or brown sugar.
He never came empty-handed. Song Tangcheng felt helpless about his politeness. Every time she persuaded him to take something back, he would find a bunch of reasons to refuse, or he would remain silent and wait for her to let down her guard before slipping back home.
After doing this a few times, she no longer asked him to take things back.
After obtaining the consent of the Song family, Xu Qi spent two days to resolve the matters in City A and also visited Lu Qi by the way.
It was only at this time that Lu Qi found out that he had a girlfriend. When he found out that his girlfriend was from City A, Xu Qi was very confused by the surprised look on his face. Lu Qi's next words made him feel a little amused.
"You've only been to City A twice and you've already found a partner. If I had known, I would have asked you to come to City A more often."
"No, my partner is an educated youth. We met in the countryside."
"That's what I was wondering. How could you have found a partner after coming to City A twice? Turns out that girl went to the countryside! Whose family is she from? Tell me, maybe your Uncle Lu knows me!"
