Chapter 40 Eating bacon



After finishing the meal, Su Xia evenly placed the meat strips in the pot and soaked them.

On the second day, every piece of meat looked bright red, so we set up a rack in the kitchen near the backyard door and hung them up in rows.

Seeing that the soup was still rich, he took out another chicken and a duck and ran away.

It usually takes five or six days.

In the following days, Su Xia was immersed in the joy of cleaning.

Bed sheets and quilt covers should be taken apart and washed, and dirty clothes and pants should be taken apart and washed.

Wipe off the dust from every corner of the room. Even though it is a newly built house, adobe houses are prone to falling apart.

There is no other way, I can only work harder.

As for new clothes and pants for the New Year, both mother and daughter have new ones, so there is no need to prepare any.

From bedrooms to living rooms to kitchens and bathrooms, every room has been supplied with what is missing.

Su Xia cut the firewood in the backyard into sections.

I looked at the inventory in the space again.

Don't worry about fruits, snacks, or treats.

I still have 700 to 800 steamed buns. They are not consumed much in the past few months. Most of them are used to build houses and dig wells.

There were 4 pigs at that time, but now there are only 3 left.

The beef, mutton, chicken, duck, goose and other dishes were not touched much.

There are still 300 chicken eggs, duck eggs and goose eggs are untouched, and there are still 80 salted duck eggs.

Su Xia looked at her abundant supplies and felt very satisfied.

Besides, Su Xia has enough money and notes. After next year or so, the supply of all kinds of materials will gradually return to normal, so Su Xia is not in a hurry at all.

Just eat what you like, don't let yourself and your children down.

There are only 굛 days until Chinese New Year, so I have to prepare the New Year's goods appropriately. I will go to the county town tomorrow and not go there before the New Year.

The New Year gifts also need to be memorized and sent in advance to the old house by Chen's father and mother. They have to be generous. These two old people really help me when they have something to do. Besides, it is very likely that I will need them in the future.

As for the gifts for the old Su family's parents and younger brother, just focus on it. After all, the family has been divided.

These two old people also love me, so it’s enough to just show some appreciation to my two brothers’ families.

This year, people have the confidence to have family members around. Su Xia knew from the last fight that if there are many family members, she will not suffer any loss.

The next day, Su Xia sent Niuniu to Chen's mother's house and went to the county town by herself. A ox cart is not as good as a bicycle.

I got to the county town and picked up the letter. Um, there was also a package. I didn't rush to read it.

I walked around slowly, and the supply and marketing cooperative replenished some non-staple food, two bags of malted milk, one bag for each family in my husband's family and one bag for my husband's family.

I want two cans. I don’t have any in my space. I can’t buy anything else because I don’t have the ticket.

I wandered to the crossover station again. Well, let's take a look. I'm really curious.

"Uncle, I'll go in and pick up some newspapers to paste on the wall."

Then he gave two candies.

The old man grabbed it and waved his hand to let us in.

Watching Su Xia go in, the old man happily touched the candy in his pocket and went back to give it to his little grandson. He must be happy.

As for Su Xia, she was not worried. There was nothing good in the things sent to the scrap yard.

Su Xia looked at a pile of broken copper and iron, a pile of broken tables, chairs, cabinets, and newspapers.

Oh... accept your fate, Su Xia. How can the scrapyard in the novel be like this one?

Su Xia found several picture books among the pile of books, and also saw several miscellaneous books, and put a bundle of newspapers aside, ready to take them out.

Then I went to other places to look around.

I picked out some wood that looked like good material, as well as some iron and other materials and put them into the space.

Su Xia plans to raise two pigs in the backyard in the future, so that she can give away one and keep the other, and she doesn't have to earn a centimeter from the land. This is still acceptable.

Raise a few chickens and lay eggs.

Then he went out with the newspaper.

"Master, how much do you think of these?"

After the uncle weighed me, he gave me 50 cents as a gift.

It was already 2 o'clock in the afternoon when Su Xia returned home.

I thought of something and took out Chen Jianguo's bag, oh!

There are a lot of good things: a dried lamb leg costs 10 yuan, two bags of toffee, two bags of malted milk, and some medicinal materials. This is good: Cordyceps sinensis, Codonopsis pilosula, Chinese angelica, etc., each cost a small amount.

Is this cheap husband okay? These medicinal herbs are not attractive to women.

My own sugar-coated bullet is very effective!

Then he felt relieved after reading the letter. He first said that he was very happy to receive the package, and then said that Niuniu's painting had been known to the entire base.

The big boss decided to let all volunteers take turns going home. He had the chance, but the project he was in charge of was at a critical moment, so he gave the chance to other volunteers.

Su Xia was so happy when she saw this that tears came out of her eyes. She guessed the power of the painting, but she didn't expect it to be so great!

At the end of the letter, he expressed his gratitude to Su Suxia for taking good care of the family and children, and for being filial to her parents!

Pursing her lips, Su Xia thought that what Chen Jianguo said was really official talk. He must have flattered his superiors too much.

Su Xia put away her things and started preparing dinner. Her bacon was ready today, so she could cook the meal she had promised Chen's mother.

Take out a strip of bacon, cut it into slices, put it on a plate, and prepare to steam it.

I steamed a small pot of egg cake and the steamed buns in the staple food space.

In fact, rice is a good partner for bacon. Think about it, it’s better not to challenge Mr. and Mrs. Chen’s nerves.

It felt like it wasn't enough, so I took out a white-striped chicken, cut it in half, took out a casserole, added some soaked mushrooms, put it on the coal stove and slowly cooked it.

While the lamb is being steamed and stewed, take out the lamb leg, cut it out, wrap it in baking paper, and prepare it for Chen's mother to take away.

He prepared the things to give to Chen's mother and father, looked around, and took out a big quilt. Since he had so many good things, he could just find a reason.

Su Xia thought that she had always wanted to keep a low profile before, so it didn't matter if she took out the things she needed occasionally.

In fact, it was already unusual for me not to go to the fields to earn work points this year.

So if you bring out some good things yourself, it will be accepted.

When Su Xia arrived at the old house, Niu Niu was lying on Chen's mother's kang, reading a picture book, her little feet dangling.

Uh... this kid knows how to enjoy life better than me, and he doesn't even think about how I don't even have a chance to sleep on the bed all day.

"Dad, Mom, come to my place for dinner."

"Niuniu, put on your shoes and go home for dinner."

Mother Chen was so happy that she quickly put on her clothes. Even Father Chen was a little impatient.

Bacon, I’m so old, but I’ve never eaten it.

The two old people were deeply touched. They were so old, but they didn't get to enjoy the blessing of their son, but they got to enjoy the blessing of their eldest daughter-in-law.

When Chen's mother left, she also told the two families not to blame her and her husband.

He left in a hurry.

The two sons and daughter-in-law were like abandoned puppies. They also wanted to go, just thinking about eating delicious food!
