Chapter 131 Drinking
"Are the pig's feet cheap here?" Chen Tao asked curiously.

Zhang Qin looked at Chen Tao, and asked curiously, "Are your pig's knuckles expensive?"

"Pig knuckles are more delicious than meat from other places, and of course they are a bit more expensive!"

"But pig's knuckles don't have much meat, so it's not worth it!"

This is the difference between eating well and being full, and it also reflects the gap in living standards between the two places. At this time, the price of southern pork ribs and pig feet has exceeded the price of pork, and it has become rare and expensive. There are only a few pig feet and ribs on the pig.

However, Zhang Hua’s hometown is still in a situation where there is more meat. The ribs are cut and sold together with the meat. If there are big bones on the hind legs, they have to be weighed. Less than half a catty.

The price of pig's feet is the same as that of pig's head. Every household slaughters pigs at the end of the year. Pork is already cheaper, but pig's feet are even cheaper.

Zhang Hua bought a lotus root and saw a small bucket next to the root digger. After paying the money, he couldn't help asking, "How many loaches and eels did my brother catch?"

"It's two to three catties. No one in the lotus root field has beaten it with electricity. There are still quite a lot of loach and eels!" The lotus root digger laughed.

Zhang Hua nodded and asked, "Do you want to sell?"

The lotus digger hesitated for a moment, and said, "Six yuan a catty, do you want it together?"

In this era, rice field eels are more expensive, but in winter it is only about six yuan a catty, and loach is three or four yuan.

Zhang Hua thought about the New Year's Eve, and he was not short of that little money, so he nodded and smiled: "Yes, let's weigh it!"

"Two and a half catties, Wangwang, 15 yuan!"

Zhang Hua took out a plastic bag from his bag, handed it to the other party and said with a smile, "Okay, put it in!"

When I got home, Zhang's mother had already prepared the meal, and Zhang's parents were sitting at the door waiting. When they saw Zhang Hua come back, they greeted him with joy.

After Zhang Hua's introduction, Zhang's mother rubbed her hands and said, "Okay, okay, it's good to be back, let's go to the house and eat, it's not good to drive a car or boat, I must be hungry now, go to bed early after eating, I know When you come back today, the beds are all made up!"

"Yes, yes, eat first, eat first!" Father Zhang also said again and again.

For the older generation, eating is the biggest thing in the world. In their view, a person’s health depends on whether you can eat. Eat a lot and you will be healthy. If you eat less, your health will be bad. If you can’t eat at all Going down, that person is basically finished.

They also like to use food to express their enthusiasm, and use food to judge how much they value others and themselves.

After going back to the house and sitting at the table, Zhang’s father came out with a wine jar and poured some for everyone. Chen Jun refused, but Zhang’s mother persuaded him: “This is wine soaked in rock sugar, sugar cane and oranges. It’s very sweet and delicious. Yes, a little is still warm."

Hearing what Zhang's mother said, thinking it was really cold here, Chen Jun asked for a little, and Chen Tao also asked for two taels.

Father Zhang put down the wine jar and said with a smile: "Eat vegetables, eat vegetables, drink as you like, don't clink glasses if you don't persuade, drink as much as you can, pour it out if you don't drink enough, and don't worry if you don't finish the rest."

Zhang's mother was very enthusiastic, and Zhang's father was also very casual. It seemed that they were easy to get along with, which made Chen Jun and Chen Tao relax a lot.

It's very soft, with a bit of sweetness, and it's really hot after drinking it, which makes people want to drink more.

As a result, the siblings finished drinking the wine in the bowl in a few strokes. Father Zhang asked them if they wanted any more. Pour a little for each of them.

Zhang Hua smiled at the side, and did not dissuade him, anyway, he just went to sleep and rest when he was drunk.

Two times together, Chen Jun poured almost three ounces of wine, while Chen Tao looked half a catty. As a result, both of them got drunk before finishing their meal. Zhang Hua first helped them to rest, and then came out to continue eating, and slowed down with his father. Drink slowly.

"Everything is fine at home!"

Father Zhang took a sip of his wine, nodded and smiled and said, "Of course it's good. There is money in the bank, and no one gets sick. You don't have to worry about food and clothing. The piglets are growing strong, and the pepper tree has grown long branches. , I just don’t know how it will blossom and bear fruit?”

Father Zhang said with a satisfied face, picked up a few pieces of pickled peppers from the twice-cooked pork, picked them up and chewed them in his mouth.

That's good. Zhang Hua nodded, and then asked Zhang Qin: "How are you doing in school, are your final grades satisfactory?"

"Very good, class No.3, what reward do you give?" Zhang Qin asked.

Zhang Hua thought for a while and said, "At that time, it seemed that there was a reward for the No.1 exam, but it didn't say that there was a reward for the No.3 exam, right?"

"No.3 is already very good. Last year's college entrance examination, the top five were eligible to study in Qingbei, so there should be rewards!" Zhang Qin said.

"It's okay!" Zhang Hua smiled and said, "I remember that No. 1 bought you a house, and then gave you 1000 yuan a month for living expenses. How about it, I'll buy you a house. As for Living expenses, about 200 yuan a month.

Well, the future living expenses will be determined according to your ranking, No.11000 yuan a month, No.2500 yuan a month, No.3 is 200 yuan a month, No.4100 yuan, No.5 a month No money, as for how much your parents give you, I don't care! "

Zhang Qin didn't care about the house. Although the 200 yuan was a bit different from what Zhang Qin expected, it was actually a lot. After all, the salary of an intern teacher in primary school is only 300 yuan a month.

"Okay, two hundred is two hundred, I will work harder this semester, and strive to get 1000 yuan a month's living expenses, and then you are not allowed to go back on your word!"

"Don't worry, your brother and I have a lot of money. You are really going to be admitted to Qingbei, and I will give you 1 yuan for a month's living expenses!" Zhang Hua smiled generously!

"so smart?"

"Of course, so just study hard and don't worry about the rest. Just tell me if you're short of money. If someone bullies you, call me too."

Father Zhang, mother Zhang, and the old couple watched cheerfully. The living expenses of 200 yuan a month are still acceptable to them. After all, the family is not short of money now. Zhang Hua is obviously rich, and he is willing to spend it for his sister. This is good.

Of course, 1 a month or something, they only thought that Zhang Hua was bragging. When they learned that Zhang Hua really paid Zhang Qin [-] yuan a month for living expenses, they almost didn't go to Peiping to take care of it. The money was recovered, and Zhang Hua was repeatedly called to tell him not to give Zhang Qin so much money!
