Vol 2 Chapter 94: status quo


The two mother and daughter chatted for a while, discussing how to make overalls, and gestured. Until she woke up safely, after Zhou Jiao fed her son, she looked at her watch and looked at her worriedly.
"Mom, are you hungry? Didn't you buy a snack? You should eat some first. Would you like to eat with me later? There are a bunch of people in the hall. You are not used to it. I will tell my mother-in-law later."
Lin Lishan shook her head, "In a few days, that's it. Depending on your mother-in-law's arrangements, I guess she will let me and you eat in the room. If you say it, it won't be good if you have a misunderstanding."
After finishing speaking, she didn’t wait long. Mother Zhang brought her eldest daughter-in-law Huang Cuilan in with the food. When she saw Lin Lishan, she said embarrassedly:
Big sister, I’m not being polite to you, just let you stay in the house with Jiaojiao. Eat. Look at her, her appetite is too small, let her eat more.
I will start to build the house tomorrow. I will be busy preparing food. Those in the village who come to help will have a meal at our house. People come and go, you can eat clean here. Otherwise, someone will pull you to say a few words, you will not be able to eat. It just so happens that I have no time to take care of Jiaojiao. I can rest assured that you stay with her. "
Lin Lishan nodded and took the meal. "Sister, this is the best way. Our two mothers and daughters happened to have a meal and chat together. Tomorrow I will go to the kitchen to help. If you have anything to do, call me."
Seeing that Lin Lishan took the bowl, Zhou Mu quickly put the Kang table on the Kang, took the basket that Huang Cuilan was carrying, brought out the three dishes inside, and put on the soup and two large bowls of rice.
"No, work in the kitchen. Tomorrow the three of us will have my two concubines. There are enough people. If I am too busy, I will call you and not be polite to you. Jiaojiao, you will let you first these days Mother takes care of you, I'm afraid I'm too busy."
Zhou Jiao nodded and said apologetically to Huang Cuilan, "Sister-in-law, you have worked so hard. We built a yard to live with. Both Xiaowu and I didn't do anything, and you and your eldest brother are busy. Think about me. I'm sorry."
"I'm sorry, your husband and I don't pay attention to those things. They are a family, don't pay attention to those things, raise your body with peace of mind, and raise your body well, and you can rest assured that your child's grandmother goes back."
Lin Lishan looked at the food, "Eldest sister, if you treat me as your own family, don’t prepare so much next time. There are too many dishes, and our mother and daughter can’t eat so much. It’s a waste. I will follow your meals in the future. You don’t need to cook separately. Just separate Jiaojiao’s confinement meal. If you save it, you have to prepare three separate cooking."
Mother Zhang hehe smiled: "Just separate Jiaojiao's meals. You are the same as us and didn't prepare separately. If tomorrow is busy, I will burn less and you can eat. After eating, I will fight by myself. I will not be polite to you."
Said and shook hands with the old family to leave.
Zhou Jiao looked at the food and knew that it was made specifically for her mother. Didn't say anything, if she let her mother eat that wow, she would cry. She definitely didn't want to see those wowotou.
Lin Lishan was eating, talking about letting her eat more.
"Jiaojiao, what does your mother-in-law usually eat at home? This is meat and chicken. They definitely don't have these. It is estimated that the meat is in these two bowls."
Zhou Jiao sipped the soup, immediately put it down, stretched her head against the window, listened to the movement outside, moved to the side, approached her mother, and whispered: "Hehe, Mom, you can tell by my face. The conditions in the surrounding villages are considered good. Now all the fine grains are distributed, and they go to the city to replace them with coarse grains. That is, they change to coarse grains. Most people have two meals a day, one of which is vegetable porridge.
Their family has three meals a day, and they are considered family members in the surrounding villages. In the morning, Wowotou adds corn dregs porridge, at noon it is still Wowotou with vegetable porridge, and the sweet potato rice with a few dishes in the evening. There is no oil in their dishes, and they are used 365 days a year.
In Wowotou, coarse grain powder, water and wild vegetables are kneaded together. That's it, many people are jealous and Zhang's family can eat enough.
Xiao Wu said that his family's Wowotou can change its pattern a year, but Wowotou is still Wowotou. That wowotou pulls your throat, you have to stretch your neck to swallow it, or it's stuck.
Haha, you said everyone eats like this, what do you do? Although I eat a little at Zhou's house, I don't have such a mess. I followed my grandmother to eat wild vegetable porridge and sweet potato rice, all of which were soft. Most of the time I ate in the school cafeteria with Xiaowu, and he took me to restaurants from time to time.
When I got married, I discovered that there are still Wowotou stuck in the throat. I don’t have any rations. I can’t eat it and I’m embarrassed to say, so I eat less. Anyway, Xiao Wu and my mother-in-law will secretly start a small stove for me. My mother-in-law is very good, secretly boiled two eggs and hid them in our house. Sometimes when the family members started to work, they secretly hid the wowtou and put them in our house first, so their family always said that I was a cat's appetite. "
Zhou Jiao took a bite of rice, and then said, "Xiao Wu and I can't stand it, so they bought rice. Let her mother make red dates and white rice porridge, give it to me to drink it, and let the whole family drink it together. I hope I don't have corn dregs every day. Wowotou, stuck, took a bit of polenta, and then really stuck.
This cannot be said clearly, because their family just eats like this, and they all eat with relish, and they are all very happy. It's hard for both of us to speak up. Fortunately, you are here and bring back those rice and flour, otherwise I would really die.
Xiao Wu ran to the county town at five o'clock in the morning the next day after being born in Ping An, and found someone to buy two trotters and two black-bone chickens, and her mother quickly stewed it for me. As a result, my mother-in-law said that if you keep it and eat it slowly, one trotter can be eaten for a day. Xiao Wu asked her to cook a black-bone chicken for the children in the family to eat, and the other black-bone chicken was also stewed. But she disagreed and said what the child would eat. They are all eaten in the confinement period, and the family can eat enough, so there is no need to burn.
I don't dare to buy it if I have money. If I buy too much, it costs too much money. If I buy less, I have no place to burn. Fortunately you are here, otherwise you really can't live. We are all ready to buy a stove, stew game every day, and secretly scatter rice into a small stove.
Xiao Wu said that he was crying, and he dared not say anything. Because the family always eats like this, even Xizi and others eat like this. He went to school and was not at home, so he went to the cafeteria to eat with rations. If you really say that you have no conscience, his father and his mother will be sad. "
Lin Lishan happily happily listened to her as she ate.
Zhou Jiao went on to say, "Why is Xiaowu best with the master chef of the county restaurant? Just catch the pheasant and hare, let him burn it, and bring some secretly to me. When there is no meat ticket, I can only go to the restaurant. If you are familiar, you will do more.
Didn’t you say I’m thin now? That was thinner before you didn't see me. In winter, the snow and wind blew over, so I didn't dare to go out. Really, the wind blew me running, I didn't have to walk, I kept pushing. Haha, so I never go out in winter if there is nothing important.
Before getting married, I had no money. Everyone called me a golden doll, but I really have no money. Relying on Xiaowu to take me some supplements. Marry here, I have money in my hands, but the bills are tossed out again. There is no food bill or meat bill, and money is useless, especially if you don’t have food bills, you can’t go to a restaurant. But anyhow, after eating game, it grew strong.
You came this time and brought so many things. Food is the most valuable. You can't have money. Now that you are not in the countryside, you have no idea that food is in short supply. The same is true in the county town, where the supply will make you 80% full. It is still planned that the whole family will be 80% full at night. Where did you buy the food? Is there no shortage of food in the capital? "
Lin Lishan drank the soup, sighed after hearing it, and shook her head, "There is also a shortage of food, but we will not be short. What if the soldiers did not have food. I had known to bring more."
Zhou Jiao smiled, "Next time, don’t bring food. Next time we have a way to buy food. New Year’s Eve is coming soon, big and small fairs will be held. Those who have fine food in the countryside will also sell it. We secretly buy and buy. Keep more, eat slowly. The more expensive is the more expensive.
Mom, you really haven't seen those poor people, how are they poor? For example, when winter comes, one-third of the people in Zhangjia Village do not have cotton jackets. What should I do? Girls just wore jackets and shivered to do housework, while men took turns wearing padded jackets to go out. There are also many homes where straws are used as quilts. This is why the most people die in the winter, and they are so poor. So, we are doing pretty well now, and we should be happy and happy. "
Lin Lishan nodded, "I should feel happy. I look around, some places are porridge, they can only eat dinner on New Year's Eve."
"Mom, you go to have a meal. My bowl is great if I eat it well~EbookFREE.me~Lin Lishan shook her head, "I can't eat anymore, it's usually so much. I'll clean up when you are done. Are they enough for your grandpa? None of them went to work on the ground. "
Zhou Jiao glanced at her mother irritably, "You forget that grandma and grandma have monthly wages and subsidies, and they have to eat. They just raise a bunch of people in the long house and eat enough. There was no food before. Tickets can be bought with money. When there is a food ticket, wild vegetables are added, which is comparable to people in the county.
But they are not well-behaved, eating like robbery, rushing to eat, and talking loudly and drooling all over the sky, talking about them is really disgusting. When I return to Zhou's house, there is nothing to eat. When I left, I opened the small stove, and all of them ate the tall and strong ones. Then Huang Zhaodi had two of them as fat as you, and I didn't believe that he didn't eat them. "
"Hehe, I'm really so fat, I wasn't fat before, it was pretty. It's really old age. Eat it, I pack it and send it to you. You lean first, don't lie down." Raise it in the basket.
After a while, Lin Lishan came in, Zhou Jiao stared at her mother, and no one followed her behind her. She winked her eyes and turned her mouth out. Lin Lishan gave her a white look, watched her make a face, and smiled while covering her mouth.
"There is only your sister-in-law in the kitchen. They are all eating. I didn't enter the main room. The kitchen smells of sweet potatoes. It should be sweet potato rice at night. Give us all the white rice. They eat sweet potato rice. Their children's tutoring is very good. Trouble."
Zhou Jiao nodded, "Their children are well-educated, and they never move anything when they come to my house. Give them candy, and they know that they have to take them home for younger brothers and sisters. When the younger ones see candy, they also know to bring them back Their brother eats."
Lin Lishan went to the kitchen to get hot water and brought it to the room. The two of them washed up, turned on the radio, and lay on the kang to chat.
