"Sister Banxia, when are you leaving? You should prepare some things in advance. It's not as easy to buy things there as in Beijing." Jianshu asked.
Chen Banxia helped clear the dishes and chopsticks. As she did so, she replied, "We just signed up. Our group will be leaving in two weeks."
It’s still early, so you can prepare some things to bring with you.
Jianshu didn't say anything more. They had only known each other for two days, so it wasn't appropriate to be too formal with the conversation.
You can communicate more about your feelings during this period, so that you won’t have so many concerns later.
Aunt Chen and her family are nice people, and their family is well-off. You don't have to worry about standing out when you interact with them.
Jianshu's family is well off, but Beijing is the capital, and there are many families with better conditions, such as the Chen family.
Aunt Chen and Uncle Chen have three sons and one daughter:
The eldest, Chen Guangbai, is 33 years old and the director of the logistics department of the steel plant; Chen Dasao is 30 years old and a union official of the textile plant; they have three sons and one daughter: the eldest son is 13 years old, the second son is 10 years old, and the daughter is 7 years old. The youngest is the one that Jian Yucheng rescued, who is 5 years old this year.
The second son, Chen Duheng, is 27 years old and works in the government at the deputy director level. Chen Ersao is 25 years old and works in a food factory. They have two sons, twins, who are now seven years old.
The third child, Chen Kongqing, is 22 years old, unmarried, and works in a machinery factory.
Before his leg was injured, Uncle Chen was the director of a woodworking factory. His family earned high salaries and had more than enough money to support their family.
Aunt Chen is not the kind of person who is stingy. Even if she spends money, she spends it on her children, so their daily food and daily necessities are good.
After dinner, they chatted for a while. Seeing that it was getting late, Jianshu said goodbye and left.
After returning home, I had nothing to do, so I took out my textbook and prepared to review it again.
Fortunately, there are electric lights. Although they are not as bright, they are much better than kerosene lamps.
The next morning, Jianshu woke up.
But I had nothing to do today and didn't want to get up, so I took out my mobile phone from my space. Although there was no internet, the novels I downloaded before were still there.
She found a sad story in ancient Chinese and cried while reading it. She felt that the hero was a scumbag, but at the same time, she felt that the heroine was so pitiful. She wanted to escape but couldn't and was always caught.
Seeing this, I feel very fortunate to have lived in this era. If I were in ancient times, I would have no place to cry.
Although the material conditions were a bit difficult, as long as she had the space, she would not have a bad life.
In ancient times, human life was worthless. A single word from the superior could result in the loss of a person’s life.
It won’t work even in the end times, the strong are respected, and she is not a strong person.
Compared to this, this is already a very good result. Ah, socialism is still good!
As long as you don't get into trouble, you don't have to worry about suddenly disappearing one day.
It’s getting late, time to get up. It’s a bit late to make breakfast, so I just take out the hot dry noodles, fried dough sticks and soy milk from the space, and it’s another hearty breakfast.
I don’t have anything to do today, so I don’t plan to go out. I’ll just tidy up the house.
I had only cleaned up the places I would use, and the guest rooms and other places had not been cleaned up yet.
Moreover, Jianshu is not very satisfied with the layout of the room and plans to make some changes.
Now she can see the bed as soon as she enters the door, which she doesn't like, and there are only chairs in the house.
She likes to lie down, but doesn't like lying on the bed in her outdoor clothes. It would be better to have a sofa.
Yesterday she saw a wooden sofa at Chen's house, which was similar to the one she saw at her relatives' house when she was a child.
I can ask Uncle Chen later, I should be able to buy a set through him.
Even though it's made of wood, you can still lie down on it when you make the bed and quilt.
It's this day and age, so there's no need to set too high a standard.
As for the price, Jianshu has money anyway, and money is not meant to be spent but used for something else.
After cleaning the whole house, it was almost time for lunch.
I haven’t eaten enough spicy food these days, and I’m craving hot pot.
She fried some hot pot base, which was her uncle's exclusive secret recipe. It tasted especially good, and with the space raw materials used, it was even better.
I also prepared some fresh beef and lamb, spicy beef, luncheon meat, potato chips, lotus root slices, bean curd sheets, frozen tofu, and wide noodles...
A large table of dishes was prepared. Although one person could not finish it, eating hot pot still requires a sense of ritual.
After a while, the soup base was ready and the beef hotpot smelled delicious.
When Jianshu smelled the spicy and fresh aroma, his mouth was watering. Fortunately, the houses around here are all private, so the smell is not so overbearing after closing the door.
Without further ado, let’s get started.
Pick up several slices of beef, put them in the pot and blanch them. After they are cooked, dip them in the secret dipping sauce. Take a big bite, and in one word, it’s delicious!
It feels so good to eat meat with big mouthfuls, and then have a bottle of soda, the taste is indescribable.
This meat was bought in the previous life. If it was replaced with meat raised in this space, it would definitely taste better.
And there is no tripe, pig throat, or tripe. I forgot to buy them at that time. It seems that I can kill some animals in the space when I have time.
We haven't touched them for a few years, and their population has grown a lot. It's time to kill them so that we can eat their meat.
Two hours later, Jianshu, having eaten and drunk his fill, collapsed in his chair, savoring the aftertaste.
I think it's okay for her to eat it every day, but her mouth can handle it, but her butt can't.
For the sake of her butt, she reluctantly decided to eat it once a week.
There were quite a few dishes prepared, and one person couldn't finish them all. Even so, she didn't think of inviting Aunt Chen and others to come and eat.
Their conditions were good, but the dishes prepared by Jianshu were a bit too much. It would be ok to just stir-fry some dishes and eat them together, but she could only share the hot pot by herself.
Don’t worry about the leftover dishes. Put them in the space and have some spicy hot pot tomorrow. If you still can’t finish them, have another spicy hot pot. There is always a way to solve the problem.
I remembered that I took two pig's trotters, some chicken feet, and lotus roots and put them in the kitchen yesterday.
Jianshu thinks that they can be braised and made into braised dishes, and when you want to eat them, you can just heat them up.
Just do it and it will be ready in no time.
I'm going to start work tomorrow, and I don't know what my new colleagues' personalities are like and whether it's easy to get along with them.
If everyone is scheming against each other, the days ahead will be difficult.
In the past few years, she just wanted to live a peaceful life and didn't want to stand out. If she stood out too much, it would be easy to get into trouble. She didn't think she could turn danger into safety every time.
I shook my head and stopped thinking about it. I knew there would be a way out when I reached the mountain. I would know tomorrow. There was no need to worry about it.
After more than two hours of braising, the pig's trotters in the pot are almost cooked. Simmer over low heat until they are soft when pierced with chopsticks. The aroma of the braised meat is very strong and it must taste very good.
He put a pig's trotter, some chicken feet, and some lotus roots in a bowl and prepared to send it to Aunt Chen.
