The whole family was very satisfied with the lunch. It must be said that Su Li’s cooking skills were amazing.
They had bought this pig offal when they were in bad times before. After all, it was cheap, but it tasted very fishy and smelled bad. But there was nothing they could do about it because it was a meat dish after all.
The food Su Li cooked was soft, tender and fragrant. It burst in your mouth with juice when you bite it, especially the marinade, which was especially delicious when poured over rice. There were also pig ears and meatballs. Ever since Su Li became an adult, their family has lived a very comfortable life, which they could not even dream of before.
So many dishes were basically finished, not only the adults but also the children had their bellies full.
Old Man Xie and the three brothers of the Xie family drank some wine during lunch, and then lay down at home to rest in the afternoon. After all, they were exhausted from hunting such a big wild boar yesterday.
Xie's mother and Xia Xiuzhi helped Su Li wash the dishes. After cleaning, they took the basket to help with the work. Since Pan Zhaodi left, Xie's mother helped mend the torn clothes, shoes and socks of the boys and girls in Xie Zhenghe's family.
Xia Xiuzhi was knitting a sweater with a ball of yarn. She had money this year, so she bought some yarn for herself and Xie Zhengyang.
The cotton coats the two girls were wearing were altered from Su Li's previous clothes and were still brand new, so no one got any for them.
Su Li also moved a stool and sat in the main room to knit and chat with them.
Su Li had only knitted one-fifth of the sweater in the afternoon. Her knitting technique was a bit complicated, but the sweater was very nice.
After dinner in the evening, Su Li fetched water for the children to wash up. After tidying up, she planned to take Tiedan and the others to bed. She had been busy all day and felt a little sleepy.
Just as she was about to go to the room, Xie Zhengchuan called her, "Is there any hot water in the kitchen? I want to take a shower."
Su Li: "No more, how about I boil some hot water for you."
Xie Zhengchuan nodded. "Okay, I was too tired yesterday and didn't take a shower. I always feel smelly. I'll go to the east room to find some clothes first."
"Okay, I'll boil some water for you and you can wash with soap."
Su Li used the earthen stove to boil water in the big iron pot. She was afraid that the water would get cold if she carried it to the main room and put it in the bathtub for bathing, so she put the bathtub in the kitchen. She first hung up the bath towel, and then poured the hot water into the bathtub. Fearing that one pot of hot water was not enough, she boiled another pot.
I added cold water and tested the temperature with my hand, it was okay.
After closing the kitchen door, Su Li went to the east room to call Xie Zhengchuan. But as soon as she entered, she saw Xie Zhengchuan with his upper body naked, unbuckled his belt with both hands.
Su Li never thought that he would do this. After a moment's pause, she was attracted by Xie Zhengchuan's figure. This man's figure was really amazing.
It might be the result of long-term training in the army. He has bronze skin, well-proportioned muscles, without a trace of fat, and his body lines are particularly attractive.
Broad shoulders, narrow waist, eight-pack abs, mermaid line, and even her fingers are placed on the belt, as if she is about to take it off, giving off a very abstinent look.
And the long legs wrapped in woolen pants, if you take them off...
The kerosene lamp in the room was dim. Su Li could clearly feel her breathing quicken and her heartbeat was abnormal, as if it was about to burst out of her throat. If she hadn't walked in without knocking, Su Li would have felt that Xie Zhengchuan was seducing her.
Why are you taking off your clothes when you haven't even taken a shower? It's so scary.
Maybe Su Li's eyes were too hot, and Xie Zhengchuan's face flashed a suspicious blush when Su Li looked at him. However, seeing his wife's appearance, it seemed that she liked her figure very much, so he raised his hand and slowly put on a coat, and put his hand to his lips.
"Ahem....who, is it wet?"
Su Li came to her senses after hearing what he said, and hurriedly turned around and walked out, but did not reply to him, "Well... it's... it's wet, go wash it quickly."
Xie Zhengchuan smiled with his lips pursed in the room, haha! His wife is still very cute, but she is a little stubborn. She likes him very much, but she is unwilling to accept him. Alas! It seems that he needs to show the advantages of his figure more often so that he can eat his wife's meat as soon as possible.
After Su Li ran out, she patted her face with both hands, feeling a little hot for some reason. Ouch! It was so embarrassing.
It's really a shame that such a handsome guy always says such things in front of her. Su Li was afraid that she couldn't control herself. She even had some foolish thoughts in her mind, why not just sleep with him? It wouldn't be a loss anyway.
Su Li didn't sleep at all that night. She had all sorts of bizarre dreams, some of which were even a bit vivid.
As a result of dreaming all night, Su Li was still groggy when she woke up the next day.
Especially in the morning when Xie Zhengchuan was washing up, he grinned at her. Su Li glared at him and went to cook. It was really all his fault.
Sweet potato porridge was cooked in the morning. It was sweet and soft, and Su Li liked it very much. She added salt, green onions and chili peppers and brushed them on the kneaded dough. She then kneaded the dough and rolled it into small round cakes one by one with a rolling pin. She heated the pan, brushed it with oil, made a pot of fried cakes, cut some large intestines and pork head, and took some spicy cabbage.
A hearty breakfast makes the eater feel refreshed.
She plans to go to the county town today. Originally, she didn't plan to go because there were enough supplies at home, but that was when Xie Zhengchuan was not at home. There were only children at home, and it was convenient to get things from the space. Now it is different. Starting from the beginning, the rice and flour at home are consumed faster.
After saying hello to Xie Zhengchuan, she brought the remittance slip from the last publication, and Zhengchuan could collect the royalties this time.
Originally, Xie Zhengchuan wanted to go with her, but Su Li refused and asked him to stay at home and spend more time with the children. What a joke! How could she get things from the space if he went there?
There was a thin layer of ice on the dirt road, but the bicycle was still rideable. When Su Li arrived at the post office, she handed a cigarette to the old man at the door and asked him to help watch the bicycle. It was the first time for the old man to smoke a foreign cigarette, so he was very happy and kept telling her not to worry.
When Su Li went in to collect her manuscript fee and Xie Zhengchuan's retirement allowance, she unexpectedly ran into an acquaintance. Pan Zhaodi was also collecting money at the military priority box. Su Li didn't want to say hello to her to avoid embarrassment, so she waited until she left before going.
"Comrade, please excuse me. This is my manuscript fee receipt. I also want to collect our family's retirement allowance together."
The clerk was very respectful to the military family members. "Sir, comrade, please wait a moment."
After a while, the clerk counted the money and handed it to Su Li, "Comrade, please count it. If there is no problem, please sign here. We have received several military families today. You have worked so hard."
Su Li smiled, thought for a while and asked: "Of course. By the way, comrade, I want to ask, was my last female comrade also a military dependent? What kind of subsidy did she receive?"
"Oh! Which female comrade? Yes, she is receiving the subsidy for children of martyrs. Do you know her?"
"I know him. Oh! The money is fine. I'll sign it right away. Thank you, comrade."
Su Li signed and went out. She looked at the direction Pan Zhaodi left and felt a little confused. She didn't remember that Pan Zhaodi had any relatives with the soldier.
Suddenly, she remembered Tiedan and Zhaodi's "Regular Pension Certificate", which she had never seen before. She would ask Xie Zhengchuan about this matter later. It was not lost at the last minute. If it was stolen by someone else, she would make that person vomit out whatever he had eaten.
She put the money she received into the space while pushing her bicycle.
She had nothing to do today, so she wanted to push her bicycle to stroll around the county town. As luck would have it, today was the day of the festival. Su Li was walking around and suddenly there was a "bang".
"Oh my God." Su Li was shocked.
When he walked over to take a look, he found that it was fried popcorn, a big bag for ten cents. Su Li had never seen it before, so he looked at it for a while.
With a "bang".
Although she was mentally prepared, her heart still beat faster. Su Li smiled and paid for a dime bag of popcorn. It was a big bag, enough for the children to eat for quite some time.
Su Li was pushing her bicycle, and passers-by subconsciously kept a distance from her, fearing that they would bump into her bicycle. She walked forward and saw a small stall selling some homespun cloth. It wasn't that the cloth was special, but the person selling it looked like an old lady whose eyesight wasn't very good.
