"You can freeze it if you can't finish it!" Shen Man smiled and said, "It's rare to buy unlimited fish, why don't you buy more?"
I just don’t have enough money...
She still had dozens of dollars in her space, but she spent thirteen dollars this time. It seemed she had to find a way to make some money, and she couldn't just get out and not get in.
I used to think about using everything in the space, but I didn’t have a suitable excuse, even eating meat was difficult.
Thinking of braised pork ribs and braised pork, her mouth was already watering.
The mother and daughter on the side saw her making her own decision, so they didn't say anything. After all, the money belongs to others, and they can buy as much as they want.
This river fish was already frozen solid within half an hour of being fished out. You can imagine how cold the weather was.
Shen Man couldn't hold on any longer. She turned to look at Li Jinhua. This man was still grabbing small fish that cost two cents a pound. Fish as big as a palm were very popular.
Especially the old ladies were going crazy.
You must know that these days, pork is only 70 cents per catty, and fish is only 20 cents per catty, even the size of a palm. You can eat it for a long time if you use it to make salted fish.
"Oh my God!" Li Jinhua finally filled the basket in her hand. If she hadn't spent all the money she brought, she might have put some more in her pocket.
Gu Nan was waiting impatiently for a long time. Seeing that she had finished grabbing, he complained: "Mom, what are you doing with so many small fish? Last year, those salted fish were eaten until the summer."
Anyway, she doesn’t like salted fish. It’s okay to eat fresh fish twice, and it’s enough if she eats it regularly. Who doesn’t crave fresh fish?
Hearing this, Li Jinhua gave her a blank look, "You little girl, you know nothing, this is meat. When relatives come to the house in the future, the whole steamed salted fish will be a good dish. You really don't know how expensive firewood and rice are."
As she said this, she turned around and asked Shen Man to get in the car. There were many people grabbing small fish next to her.
The educated youths in the collective households are still queuing up, obviously they are late and have not yet been placed in line.
It felt very fast as soon as I got on the tractor and went back, and I was at the place in a short time.
After getting out of the car, Gu Nan helped her carry the fish, and she had to help Li Jinhua carry it, which made her very busy.
"Mom, please go back first. I will help Sister Man send the fish back." When they arrived at the door of the house, Gu Nan did not want to enter the house.
After hearing this, Shen Man quickly said: "Can I handle it here? The collective household does not have a big basin."
She actually has a basin, and there are many new basins in the space, but she still has to keep them here.
Li Jinhua nodded in agreement, opened the door and the three of them entered the hospital.
At this time, Li Mei heard the noise in the room next to her and immediately came out to see what was going on.
"Oh my God, why did you buy so many fish this time?" She looked at the three big fish and a basket of small fish in surprise.
In previous years, my mother-in-law only bought one fish, and the fish looked the same as before.
"Those are the two fishes Xiaoman bought. They belong to our family." Li Jinhua raised her hand to signal, while rolling her eyes at her daughter-in-law.
This guy's life is pretty good, but he's so annoying and misses all the good things.
Li Mei didn't expect that Shen Man was so rich. After looking at the two fish, she knew that he couldn't afford it for less than ten yuan.
Several people entered the room, and Li Jinhua opened the lid of the pot, which was full of hot water.
Use a ladle to scoop water and mix it with cold water. First put the fish in the water and soak it. You will have to take the fish out and freeze it later, otherwise it will be difficult to eat.
"Xiao Man, you and Nan Nan go inside first and sit down." Li Jinhua greeted them into the room and went out.
Gu Nan pulled her into the house, then sat by the kang and took off her shoes, "Sister Man, please get on the kang. It's warm in the kang."
Hearing this, Shen Man didn't refuse, so she took off her shoes and got on the kang. It had been freezing outside for too long, and she couldn't recover for a while.
There was a small square quilt on the kang. The two of them stuffed their feet into it, and their numb feet from the cold were relieved.
Li Mei also entered the room at this time, sat by the kang and asked Shen Man many questions.
They were all insignificant questions, so Shen Man answered them.
"Sister-in-law, I just came back from outside. Go and see the child." Gu Nan directly interrupted her if she wanted to speak.
Li Mei was a little unhappy when she heard this, "The child is so old and still has to be coaxed. He already doesn't know where to go to have fun."
But she didn't ask any more questions, got up and went out.
"Sister Man, please lie down for a while and keep yourself warm." Gu Nan went to get her a pillow and lay down herself.
Seeing that there was no one outside, Shen Man lay down and took a rest. If everyone in the Gu family was there, she would be embarrassed to lie down.
The two chatted for a while, then fell asleep in a daze.
It was really too hot and comfortable on the kang.
Gu Nan didn't expect her to fall asleep, but he didn't wake her up and quietly prepared to go to the ground.
The door outside suddenly opened, and a tall figure walked in.
"Second brother? Why are you back!" Gu Nan was surprised and asked in a low voice.
Gu Chen looked at her confused, why were she so quiet? Then he saw a girl lying on the kang, her eyes closed, and she seemed to be asleep.
Seeing the face, he was stunned for a moment. Isn't this the female educated youth from last time? Why did she come to his house to sleep?
Putting down the things in his hands, he turned around and went out. Gu Nan followed him and closed the door.
Arriving in another room, Gu Chen said, "Why is she sleeping in our house?"
Hearing this, Gu Nan smiled and replied: "Isn't this winter fishing today? We went together. When we came back, it was freezing enough so that she could warm herself up on the kang and then fell asleep."
"Second brother, Sister Man and I get along well. We often play together."
After hearing this, Gu Chen didn't ask any more questions. It's normal for little girls to play together. Girls don't have many friends, so there aren't many people they can really get along with.
He took out a handful of fruit candies from his pocket and stuffed them in, "These are for you."
By the way, I picked up two more red headbands, which will come in handy for the Chinese New Year soon.
Gu Nan was very surprised to see the headband, "Thank you, second brother, second brother, you are so kind to me!"
As she spoke, she bared her teeth and smiled.
Gu Chen smiled helplessly, "You kid, the second brother is the only girl like you. If it's not good for you, who will be good for you?"
The two Gu brothers are very kind to Gu Nan. After all, she is a sister, unlike her younger brother.
There is no preference for sons over daughters in their family, not to mention that this child is also sensible.
The two people were talking when Li Jinhua came back outside, holding a bag of coarse salt in her hand, ready to pickle the salted fish.
When she saw Gu Chen, she went up and slapped him, "You brat, you still know how to come back!"
That being said, she was also happy to see her son back.
Gu Chen had long been used to her being like this, and leaned against the wall indifferently, "It's a holiday this time, where are you going if you don't go home?"
"The forest farm will die!" Li Jinhua glared at him angrily, and then asked Gu Nan to help her pack the fish.
Gu Chen was not angry when he heard this, but smiled and went to help.
"Why did you buy so many fish today?" He was stunned when he saw three big fish.
Li Jinhua told Shen Man about buying fish, and finally asked him to help clean up other people's fish.
