Li Huan's eyes lit up when he heard this. Big fish means that the three people behind have a big appetite and can eat a lot of food. But thinking about today's day, he basically understood.
Autumn harvest is coming soon, and whether it is supply and marketing cooperatives, grain stations, or vegetable markets, the rice, flour, grains, oils, pork and other good things in the regular channels are almost sold out, so the afternoon and evening are good times to open the black market.
"Go ahead."
In half an hour, the three of them emptied the entire West Room of grain, oil, rice and noodles, especially the pork. Not a single ounce was left. Li Huan secretly thought that it was a good thing that he kept some of it first, otherwise he would not even be able to collect the betrothal gift.
A wad of money came into Li Huan's hand. Li Huan counted it once, then took out 20% of the money and handed it to the thin monkey. He also took out two bags of rice noodles and two pieces of pork from the east room, and handed the thin monkey to the thin monkey.
The monkey was happy to have food to eat with Brother Huan.
"We take a break during this period, because every household will distribute grain after the autumn harvest, so we mainly collect fine grain. You take the money and harvest fine grain when you have it, and we will make a big one during the Chinese New Year."
"Okay, Brother Huan, I'll leave first."
Shouhou took the money and left. Li Huan checked it carefully again, then pushed the bicycle, locked the door, and rode non-stop to Xiangyang Village.
He went back home first, and just as he pushed the bicycle into the yard, Li Le ran out happily: "Second brother, you really want to marry Cheng Qiao as your wife."
"Yeah, don't you like her?"
"Second brother, I like her quite a lot. Her fair skin makes her look very comfortable, and she matches you very well. But I'm worried that she won't like me or our family."
"Well, our home is indeed a little dilapidated. Once we marry Cheng Qiao, we will apply for the land at the back and build a new house. We will knock it down and rebuild here."
"Second brother, do you want to separate the family?"
When Li Le heard what Li Huan said, she couldn't help but become anxious. The eldest brother was not married yet, and she was not married yet. If the second brother separated, it would be difficult for her to talk to her husband's family in the future.
"It depends on Cheng Qiao. If she insists on splitting up the family, then let's do it. It's at the back anyway, so it's convenient to just say hello."
"Second brother, you are really..."
"When you marry a wife and forget about your mother, you can't help it. When you find the person you like, you will also think about him, but I will definitely not treat my mother badly."
"Li Huan, why are you back? Why don't you stay with your wife in the hospital?"
Mother Li heard the voice and came out. She happened to hear Li Huan's last words and showed a satisfied smile on her face. This is how it should be. Li Huan's father also said so at the beginning. Unfortunately, the old man left too early and left her alone.
People will always miss you silently at night.
"Mom, these two bags are filled with rice and flour. You keep half for us to eat at home, and half for Cheng Qiao as a betrothal gift. You can cook braised pork here tonight. I think Li Le is starting to crave meat."
"Who is hungry for meat? You are the only one who is hungry for meat."
As Li Le untied the rope, he blushed and muttered, but he was very happy in his heart. Not only would he have rice to eat tonight, but he would also have braised pork.
"Are you in a hurry? If not, Mom will go get some dumplings and you can bring them to the hospital for Cheng Qiao to eat."
"Don't be in a hurry, mother. I still need to send these meats to the Educated Youth Point. They asked me to buy them. I also want to go to the Chen family to see if there is any trouble."
"Go ahead and don't quarrel with anyone."
As soon as Li's mother finished speaking, Li Huan was already walking towards the educated youth spot with two pieces of meat. Walking on the country road, he could see golden crops fluttering in the wind everywhere, which looked quite spectacular.
"Qian Longkun, open the door."
The educated youth spot was buzzing with chatter, and Li Huan could hear the sounds inside while standing outside. However, when Li Huan called the door, the inside suddenly became quiet.
Xu Laidi's face turned pale with fright. She had said a lot of bad things about Cheng Qiao and the second-rate man just now. Overtly and secretly, she was saying that the second-rate man and Cheng Qiao must have had an affair a long time ago, otherwise how could he have saved Cheng Qiao by such a coincidence.
Of course Han Chunmei wanted to refute, but she couldn't speak to Xu Laidi. Instead, Xu Laidi made some sarcastic comments. It was just that the clothes she took off were put on Han Chunmei, so she turned to others.
Han Chunmei's face turned red, but Zhang Yuefang got angry and opened her mouth to start a fight. A few words left Xu Laidi speechless. Xiaofang rolled her eyes at Xu Laidi and stepped forward to comfort Han Chunmei, saying that Xu Laidi said the grapes were sour because he couldn't eat them.
of.
Just when Li Huan knocked on the door, Jiang Guangrong shook his head and opened the door. Women are so troublesome, but it seems that the troublemaker now is Xu Laidi. It would be better if they did not have this person in their educated youth circles, and the world would be peaceful.
"Second bitch, no, Li Huan, you bought the meat."
Jiang Guangrong saw the two pieces of meat in Li Huan's hand at a glance, and happily stretched out his hand to take it, but Li Huan gave him one piece. The money and tickets they gave were not enough to buy one piece of meat, so he had to make up the money.
When Qian Longkun heard the word "meat", he also ran out. He looked at the meat in Li Huan's hand and asked with a smile how much more money was needed. Li Huan shook his head and said that Cheng Qiao had already paid for them and he didn't know how much it was.
.
Oh, it turned out that Li Huan was just a delivery boy. The two exchanged a few words and then separated. Han Chunmei quickly took the meat and announced loudly that they were going to make braised pork tonight and brought out all the fine grains.
The tense arrogance that the educated youth had just expressed was suddenly extinguished by the words braised pork. Everyone started to move in a hurry, except of course Xu Laidi and Chai Jianmin.
"Excuse me, can I owe it first and pay it back to you after the autumn harvest?"
Chai Jianmin found Jiang Guangrong and asked in a low voice. Jiang Guangrong shook his head: "I can't make a decision by myself. Everyone must agree."
Of course the result was that he disagreed. It was just a piece of pork belly that weighed less than two kilograms and could only be cut into more than a dozen pieces. It can be seen that apart from Chai Jianmin, there were also three male educated youths, Jiang Guangrong, Qian Longkun and Zhao Xiaobao.
In addition to Xu Laidi and Cheng Qiao, there are five female educated youths, including Han Chunmei, Zhang Yuefang, Xiaofang, Xiaoqin and Xiaoping, a pair of sisters. And although Cheng Qiao is not here, they have also contributed money and tickets, so her share still has to be
Keep it.
Calculated in this way, it is already very good that each person can eat two pieces of braised pork. How can we add two more people to share their braised pork.
Xu Laidi and Chai Jianmin were so angry that their eyes almost turned white, but there was no one in the whole educated youth spot. Even Zhao Xiaobao took the time to wash his face and brush his teeth, and waited for the braised pork.
Li Huan walked into the home of the village chief Chen Weidang with the remaining piece of meat. When the village chief's wife saw that she was a second-rate, her face immediately darkened.
But when she saw the fat white strip of pork belly in Li Huan's hand, she wanted to give him a good look. For a moment, she over-controlled her expression, which made her extremely embarrassed.
"Auntie, you didn't even buy any meat today. I asked my friend to save it for me. Come on, take it."
