Chapter 77: Grab the Meat



After coming back from a walk around the village, the three of them all had puffed up cheeks and looked a little strange.

As Su Nian expected, everyone in the village told each other that they would go to the supply and marketing cooperative to grab pork tomorrow.

Many women who got married went to their parents’ home to inform their families.

"Let's go back to the Youth League Home and notify the educated youth!" Su Nian said helplessly.

"Haha! Let's go! We must be good people!" Sun Yanyan said with a smile and nodded.

"Captain Chen is such a chatterbox!" Qin Yuxian couldn't help laughing.

"Captain Chen is quite interesting!" Su Nian said with a smile.

Instead, she felt that such selfless cadres were very cute!

When Su Nian and the other two returned to the Youth League Home, it was already around ten o'clock. Su Yiyi and her group were not in the yard, only the people in Chen Yu's room were there.

"Everyone, pay attention! There will be pork without tickets at the supply and marketing cooperative tomorrow! Remember to grab it!" Su Nian started making a fuss as soon as he entered the yard.

"Are you all there?! We're going to grab some pork tomorrow! Each person is limited to two kilograms, no tickets needed!"

"Go early! If you're late you won't be able to grab one!"

Su Nian and the other two shouted in the yard like megaphones.

"Really?"

"Tomorrow!"

"Who told you that?"

Everyone in Chen Yu's room ran out to ask.

"Captain Chen said it! Everyone in the village knows about it! You can go and ask around too!" Su Nian said with a smile.

"Really? Let's go! Let's go ask too!"

After Chen Yu and the other three finished speaking, they rushed out of the yard to inquire about the news.

The three of them went out for a walk and came back happily.

“It’s true!”

"We're going to grab it too!"

"Well! Wear something warmer! Go early!"

The three of them began to plan to grab the pork.

The three people in Su Nian's room were even more outrageous. They ran directly to the brigade headquarters to get a letter of introduction and prepared to stay in the guesthouse.

"You two, are you just stealing some pork? Is that really that serious?"

When the village party secretary who issued the letter of introduction heard that they were going to set out now to grab pork and would stay in a guesthouse, his eyes widened.

"Open it for them! Let them take it away! How long has it been since you last had meat?"

Captain Chen has been living in the house in the backyard of the brigade headquarters. This winter, when he has nothing to do, he will be on duty with the village party secretary and chat with him.

Seeing Su Nian and the others coming to get a letter of introduction, I couldn't help but smile.

"Su Zhiqing! You might as well go to the county town to attend the big market! It's such a waste to get a letter of introduction just to go to the town to grab some pork!" Captain Chen said with a smile.

"Hey! This is a good idea!" Su Nian's eyes lit up when he heard what Captain Chen said.

Going to the county town to attend the big market, how can you miss out on such excitement?

"Captain Chen, when is the big market in the county?" Su Nian asked immediately.

"Hey! You really want to go? The county town has a big market on the first, fifteenth, and thirtieth of the lunar month! Once every two weeks!"

"Aren't they all five days?" Su Nian couldn't help but ask curiously.

"That was in the past! Nowadays, it's good enough to have a big fair. How can there be a big fair every five days? That's wishful thinking!" Captain Chen shook his head and said with a smile.

"Oh! I understand!" Su Nian nodded in understanding.

She also understood what Captain Chen meant. The current situation was special, it was not suitable for buying and selling, and the big markets were not frequent!

In order to facilitate people's transactions, there are only a few communes in the county town that have them. Despite this, it is difficult to buy food at the big market!

After getting the letter of introduction, Su Nian and her group of four dressed warmly and set off directly.

Su Nian was so excited, don’t even mention it. He could finally integrate into the times and society. He must seize the opportunity to practice!

The four of them were the first to set out from the entire Zhuyuan Village. When they left, there was no one on the road.

"I wonder if Uncle Niu will go? It would be great if we could ride in an ox cart!" Qin Yuxian couldn't help muttering after walking for a while.

"Don't even think about it! If you wait to ride in an ox cart, you'll have to go with the main force! We won't be able to get it!" Su Nian said with a smile.

As Su Nian walked, he would occasionally pull a piece of dry grass or pluck a leaf, feeling relaxed and comfortable.

"Niannian! Aren't you tired?" Sun Yanyan saw that Su Nian had been walking for such a long time and was still as leisurely as if strolling in the garden. She sighed in her heart that Su Nian had good physical strength and asked in confusion.

"I'm not tired! How long have we been walking?" Su Nian said indifferently.

"Look! River! Canglan River!" Su Nian saw the river from afar, pointed at it and shouted.

"I've seen it several times! Sister Nian! It's still so rare to you!" Qin Yuxian looked up at the shimmering silver ribbon and said with a smile.

"Sister, am I looking at the river?" Su Nian said with a blank look at Qin Yuxian.

"Is that the river? And you can see the bridge?" Qin Yuxian asked again.

"It's a fish! Do you know what fish is? Silly girl!" Su Nian looked at Qin Yuxian with disappointment.

"Yes! Fish! Brother! Where did you catch the fish last time? How did you catch it?"

Qin Yuxian remembered the fish she stewed last time, and as she savored the sour and spicy taste, she couldn't help but drool!

"The fish are caught in this river! As for how they are caught, I won't tell you!"

"Why?"

"I'm afraid you'll catch me!"

“…Why don’t you let me catch it?”

After hearing this, Qin Yuxian looked at Qin Yulin with dissatisfaction and asked.

"Why ask? I was afraid that you didn't catch any fish, so I went to the river to keep the fish company!" Sun Yanyan couldn't help but laugh and joked.

"Yes! I think so too! It's safer for you to stay away from it!" Su Nian nodded in agreement.

"I'm not a child!" Qin Yuxian said with a pout.

A few people chatted and laughed as they came to the stone bridge and leaned on the railing to look down at the rushing river.
