Chapter 404

Chapter 404 404 Leave

And I have to eat at home at noon, so I can eat pig blood.

They are all good at work, so by eleven o'clock, the meat has been separated.

Zhou Yongbing cut off a large piece of meat and wanted to share it among three people.

"We still have meat at home. You need a lot of it. We are real relatives. We don't need these vain things."

Zhou Yongbing nodded very well and took the meat into the kitchen.

"Xiao Bing, I won't eat this meat. You all keep it. Let's stew pig blood for lunch today."

Lunch is two drawers of steamed buns. Below is stewed sauerkraut and pork blood fried with green onions. There are also chili peppers in it. It tastes particularly good.

In the afternoon, four men were grinding white flour, and Zhou Yongbing also bought 600 kilograms of white flour, which he brought back to his three sisters.

When it was almost dark, Sun Yun drove over and brought two and a half bags of sweet potato starch and four bags of vermicelli, some wide and some thin.

Zhou Yongbing hurriedly gave the money, including yesterday's pig money.

In fact, Zhao Qingjie had already sent the money to his father-in-law’s family in the morning.

Zhou Yongbing was relieved when he saw that he was not polite.

We went to Zhao Qingjie's house for dinner in the evening. Qi Xuemei didn't come over today, she was preparing at home.

The two sisters-in-law have already agreed to eat at the second brother's house tonight and at the old man's house at noon tomorrow.

We also discussed that each family would be given ten kilograms of cotton, a bag of sweet potato noodles, and two bags of sweet potatoes and potatoes. As for dried cabbage, dried radishes, and everything else, the big Japanese melon was given to each family.

Twenty, this is for the two sisters to divide.

Finally, I will give you twenty yuan. This is the last girl in the Zhao family to get married. All five Zhao brothers and sisters are married.

At night, Zhou Yongbing sat on the donkey cart and looked at the things in the cart.

"Xiao Li, is this too much?"

"I think there are quite a lot of them too. It's okay. From now on, if we have any good things over there, we can just think of them. We are brothers and sisters."

"Okay, I will go out and see some that we don't have here, and I want to bring them back to Big Brother and the others."

Zhao Yanli smiled and nodded. She was willing to do this. This way she could get closer to her natal family.

The next day, the couple packed up their belongings at home.

Zhao Yanli talked to Li Hongxiang. She brought back a tin stove and some things she wanted to use.

Of course Li Hongxiang had no objection. So the two of them loaded the car bit by bit.

At noon, I took the second sister’s donkey cart to my eldest brother’s house for dinner.

When picking them up, Zhao Xiaojing also gave them all the things they were given. She and her two sisters-in-law gave them the same things.

And we will have dinner at their house in the evening. The couple will leave tomorrow.

By the evening, the couple had loaded all the things they wanted to take away into the car. It was packed. When they finished eating the next morning, the entire Zhao family came to see them off.

It's much less freezing at night now, so the time it takes for them to go back will be much shorter.

Five days later, the two of them arrived home in the afternoon. The couple picked up their own things and unloaded them. After all, the Zhao brothers and sisters also gave Zhao Yanping's things.

After unloading the truck, Zhao Yanli stayed at home and made a fire to cook.

Zhou Yongbing drove to Zhang's house by himself and told Zhao Yanping that this was given to him by his three brothers and sisters. He also gave him cotton for making quilts.

Originally, Zhao Yanli kept more than 100 kilograms of cotton for herself. The three of them returned 30 kilograms.

The Zhang family also needs cotton now and must prepare more for their children.

When the old couple from the Zhou family came back in the evening, they saw so many things in their home and sighed in their hearts that life on the farm was not as bad as they imagined.

Look at the food, vegetables, and meat. Even if you have something urgent to do here, you may not be able to buy it even if you want to buy it.

Father Zhou looked at the two bags of soybeans and soaked three kilograms of soybeans excitedly. He will drink soy milk and eat tofu tomorrow.

"Mom, I've bought all the flour for my three sisters. Xiaobing hasn't come back yet. I'll send it to them in a while."

"Haha, they are beautiful. I bought them for them. Do you want to give them away? Let them pick them up by themselves. Let your dad ride the bike to call them."

Zhao Yanli smiled. This was because her mother-in-law wanted her aunts to come to the house for dinner.

She was not a stingy person to begin with, so she quickly cut off a piece of meat.

"Mom, let's stew steamed buns and vermicelli with meat tonight? And add some potatoes?"

"Okay. You have to take care of their food." Although the old man said this, he still had a smile on his face.

Father Zhou soaked the soybeans and went to his three daughters' homes.

When the Zhou sisters heard about it, they actually bought white noodles and had vermicelli stew with meat for dinner at night. So the three families came over with carts.

The three sisters also cook in the main room.

"Xiao Li, if I had known you a few years ago, I wouldn't have been hungry in those years."

"Third sister, there was not much food on the farm at that time. If my sister hadn't been there to take care of us the year we came here, we, brothers and sisters, would probably have starved.

There was a drought on the farm at that time, so my sister gave us food.

I want to cry when I think of those two years.

There was no harvest at all from the food we had worked so hard to plant. Fortunately, we brothers and sisters listened to my sister and planted more sweet potatoes and potatoes. Otherwise, not to mention the wages and tasks of my two brothers, it would be a problem for us to eat?

I don’t like to eat Japanese melon now, it was at that time that I got hurt.

But when I think about it, if it hadn’t been for the Japanese melons at that time, I might have starved to death.”

"Is it that difficult on the farm?"

"Isn't that right? Our farm manager is quite courageous. My sister's land is close to a puddle. During the two years of drought, we did not lose production.

Our farm manager sells the grain directly to the farm workers."

"Your director is really awesome."

"No, all the farm workers do not disrespect him. They all know that he made a mistake by selling food privately. But at that time, if everyone had no food, they would starve to death."

"That's great. You are lucky to have such a director."

"Isn't it?"

"Sister, these are the pickles I made myself. You all can take some back to try."

"Xiao Li, aren't you tired like this?"

"Second sister, I'm tired. I'm okay, and I still have my brothers and sisters. When I came out alone, I was so tired that I cried.

But seeing my sister, who is younger than me, doing it by herself, why should I cry?

But if you work hard, you can really earn a lot of money. It will definitely be more than your salary.

I was just too tired. During the spring planting and autumn harvesting periods, I didn’t even go home for lunch. I took them there in the morning and worked until midnight at night.”

"It's not easy."

"Yeah, it's too difficult. Fortunately, we can still have chemical fertilizers and pesticides in the past few years, which can increase production and save weeding."

The three Zhou sisters have never done farm work at all, so they just imagined what their brothers and daughters-in-law said.
