Li Huan took Cheng Qiao to the supply and marketing cooperative. He didn't see Qiu Min today. It turned out that Xiao Nizi had asked for leave, so he could only buy some snacks such as melon seeds, walnuts and peach cakes and leave.
The two went to a state-owned restaurant for lunch first. It happened that the state-owned restaurant had a big dish today, stewed mutton with radish. Cheng Qiao quickly bought two plates and put them in a lunch box to take back.
"Cheng Qiao, how many lunch boxes do you have?"
Li Huan couldn't help but asked. He still had two lunch boxes left by Cheng Qiao. His mother and sister brought back another one. Now Cheng Qiao still has two in his hands.
"I won't tell you, but there are a lot of them anyway."
Cheng Qiao answered with a smile. She remembered that she dug out a box of lunch boxes from the warehouse of the grocery store. Adding the original one, there were already dozens of lunch boxes.
"Why do you have so many lunch boxes?"
"When my father sent me on the train, he was afraid that I would starve to death, so he packed all the edible things in the house into lunch boxes, so I had so many lunch boxes."
Cheng Qiao suddenly remembered that when she first went to the countryside, she really brought three lunch boxes, but now there was only one left, so the other two must have been taken away by Xu Laidi.
Perhaps Xu Laidi used his own lunch boxes, so her two lunch boxes should have been sold by Xu Laidi. You must know that although the lunch boxes are not expensive, they require industrial invoices.
"That's it. Then you don't have to buy a lunch box to bring food from now on. Let's go to a movie and take the seeds home when they arrive in the evening."
The two happily watched a movie, ate some snacks and peach cakes, and returned to the mansion. Skinny Monkey was already waiting anxiously as soon as he entered the house.
"Why did you come here so early?"
Li Huan saw several big bags on a tricycle next to Shouhou, and quickly went to welcome it and opened the door.
"These two days are the days when the commune collects public grain, so there are few people on the road, so I came here early. Brother Huan, why do you need so many seeds?"
"I want to secretly grow some food in the mountains behind my house and then sell it here."
"Brother Huan, you are just trying to get rid of socialism. It's too dangerous."
"We have done all the speculation, why do we still care about some wool? As long as we are careful, we will be fine."
Shouhou was convinced. In a blink of an eye, he saw Cheng Qiao nodding and smiling. This must be Brother Huan's wife. The way Brother Huan looked at her, he must like this woman very much. He couldn't offend anyone.
"Let me introduce my daughter-in-law Cheng Qiao and my brother Hou Jianjun. I usually call him Skinny Monkey."
"Hello, this is mutton stewed with radish. The weather is getting colder. You can take it back and eat it."
Cheng Qiao took out a lunch box from the cloth bag and handed it to Shouhou. Shouhou quickly glanced at Li Huan and saw him nodding with a smile, and also put it away with a smile.
Hearing that it was mutton, Skinny Monkey quickly picked up a piece and stuffed it into his mouth. Well, it was delicious. If he had another two ounces of wine and a plate of peanuts, he would still be a god.
"You kid, don't eat alone. Take it back and add some food to your parents."
Li Huan saw that Slim Monkey had eaten two pieces in a row and still wanted to continue eating, so he couldn't help but chuckle.
The thin monkey's hand that was about to take the meat paused. He quickly closed the lid of the lunch box tightly and put his fingers in his mouth without giving up, not letting go of any trace of the meat flavor.
"Brother Huan, sister-in-law, I'll leave first."
The sister-in-law pleased Li Huan, and he asked Skinny Monkey to start working at his house tomorrow, with two meals a day and one yuan a day.
Shouhou's eyes lit up. Brother Huan stopped going to the black market during this period, which directly cut off his income. Moreover, the new year was approaching. If there was no more income, life at home would be difficult.
"Okay, I'll come over early tomorrow morning, see you sister-in-law."
The thin monkey riding the tricycle disappeared in a blink of an eye. Li Huan looked at a few bags on the ground, looking like he wanted to ask but didn't dare.
"Li Huan, will you betray me in this life?"
"I, Li Huan, swear that if I do anything wrong to Cheng Qiao, I will be hit by an ox cart, a donkey cart, and a car when I go out. I will be choked to death when I drink water or soup. I will be choked to death when eating vegetables. I will fall to death while walking. I will not be able to enter the house after I die."
Reincarnation.”
Li Huan's oath was spoken so quickly and urgently that Cheng Qiao couldn't reach out to cover Li Huan's mouth in time. He could only give Li Huan a fierce look, and in the blink of an eye, the bags of seeds on the ground disappeared.
Li Huan kept staring at Cheng Qiao's eyes and didn't even notice that the bags of seeds at his feet had disappeared. He was still expecting Cheng Qiao to tell him some secret.
"Let's go, idiot."
Cheng Qiao locked the door, and when he saw Li Huan still looking at him blankly, he couldn't help but smile.
"Hey, let's go."
Li Huan was a little disappointed when he didn't get any information from Cheng Qiao. He wanted to hang the bag of seeds on the front bumper of the bicycle, but there was nothing at his feet.
"Cheng Qiao, where are the seeds?"
Li Huan looked around in shock. Except for Shouhou, no one had been here at all. Where did that guy go? He suddenly thought of something and looked at Cheng Qiao with bright eyes.
"Cheng Qiao, wife, I understand. No wonder you didn't let me come here alone. It turns out the secret is here."
Cheng Qiao smiled again, and the dimples at the corners of his mouth caught Li Huan's eyeballs deeply. Li Huan couldn't help but took two steps forward, and kissed her lips towards the dimples.
"Well~Li Huan~well~"
"Daughter-in-law, be good..."
The afterglow of the setting sun reflected the earth, merging the shadows of the two people into one person, who had not been separated for a long time.
"Daughter-in-law, you smell so good, I like you so much."
"You have to help me keep this secret."
"That's for sure, wife, are you a little fairy who has descended to earth?"
"Yes, the little fairy will conjure up a lot of delicious things for you to eat in the future. No, do you want to eat the sausage?"
“Grilled sausage”
Li Huan was surprised to see a red sausage with a thin stick in Cheng Qiao's hand. He couldn't help but repeat, then he carefully took the sausage and took a bite.
The grilled sausage was still hot, oily and sweet, and it was so delicious that it almost fell off your tongue. Li Huan finished the grilled sausage in three mouthfuls and licked his lips with unfulfilled interest.
"Daughter-in-law, the grilled sausage is delicious. What else is delicious here?"
"There are plenty of them. Rice, white flour, pork, and aquatic products are all things you can't think of. There's nothing I can't bring out."
Cheng Qiao took out the oden again. Li Huan looked at the cup made of paper and the strings of unnamed things in the cup, and his whole body became petrified.
"Daughter-in-law, if you want seeds, does it mean that you have land in your immortal body and can grow food?"
Li Huan finally managed to put his messed-up mind in order before he asked the question cautiously.
Cheng Qiao was stunned for a while, what was a fairy body? Oh, it turned out that Li Huan really thought she was a fairy and descended to earth. She reached out and grabbed Li Huan, wanting to take him to the space to have a look.
