59 years after its opening, people are still in Nanluoguxiang.

"Chen Hao, come and cook."

At the old lady's order, Chen Hao immediately rushed into the kitchen.

He likes to procrastinate on other things, but is very proactive when it comes to cooking.

"Grandma, what are you doing for lunch?"

"Let's cook duck with Chinese cabbage, stir-fry dried saury, and add a shrimp."

The old lady picked a few cabbage leaves and washed them, soaked the dried knife fish she brought back from Tianjin in water, and added a little vinegar to remove the fishy smell of the knife fish.

Chen Hao was lighting the coal stove on the side.

Chen Li squatted on the side, watching her second brother making a fire, and she found it very interesting.

Chen Feng felt that this amount of food was not enough.

Except for Chen Jianjun who was not there, three bowls of food were indeed a bit too little for a family of seven.

He took two wild duck eggs and went to Compound No. 95.

"Third Auntie, do you still have leeks at home?"

October is the Indian Spring. Leeks planted in September will mature in October.

However, after October, the weather in the north becomes extremely cold and it is difficult for leeks to survive.

Yan Bugui was a man of great calculations and was well-known for his careful budgeting. If he could save money on food, he would definitely not waste it.

She made a few rotten wooden racks at the door of her house, creating a rare three-dimensional vertical vegetable growing rack, and also grew flowers that were very popular among young women.

This person is very worth learning from in terms of how he lives his life.

It is natural that the third aunt is more shrewd to follow such a husband.

When he saw Chen Feng coming, he immediately became very active and enthusiastic.

"Yes, look, my chives are very tender. I'll cut as many as you want for you."

Chen Feng took out two duck eggs and said with a smile, "Two wild duck eggs. Auntie, you don't have to give me too much. Just enough for me to fry a plate."

The third aunt looked at the duck eggs and then at the leeks.

After calculating for a while, I felt that I still had room to earn.

At least wild duck eggs are meat-eating food, and the leeks will grow again in a few days.

"Okay, for the old man's sake, I'll give you a little more today."

He took out a pair of scissors from the house and cut a large bunch of hair for Chen Feng.

"If you want to change again in the future, keep coming to our house, and I promise you won't suffer any loss."

"Okay, thank you, Auntie."

I took a handful of leeks back to the kitchen and took out four duck eggs. The two little ones immediately cheered.

The old lady asked, "Xiao Feng, did you exchange it with the Yan family?"

"Yes, two wild duck eggs."

Chen Feng explained: "Uncle Yan teaches at the school. If we have a good relationship with his family, it will be helpful for Chen Hao to be selected as a Young Pioneer in the future."

Chen Hao stood up quickly.

"Brother, really?"

"If you want to wear a red scarf, you should study hard first." The old lady said with regret.

The fastest way to select Young Pioneers is to have good grades, which is the best indicator.

Secondly, the family background is very good, and there is no problem with this in the Chen family.

As for their personal connections with the school leaders, there were also no major obstacles, and the two Chen brothers still had a good reputation in Nanluoguxiang.

It would take some time to cook the rice, so Chen Feng took out sixteen wild duck eggs from the space and wrapped them in a piece of cloth.

There is a supply and marketing cooperative in Nanluoguxiang.

What was supposed to be the courtyard wall was demolished, occupying part of the space of the courtyard behind to form a one-story small shop about 10 meters wide.

There is the main gate in the middle, and the door for incoming goods is on one side of the gate. On weekdays, there are only two or three people working there.

"Xiao Feng, do you want to buy anything?"

Guo Chunhua, who was on duty at noon, saw Chen Feng come in, looked up and asked with a smile.

Chen Feng took out the cloth in his hand and opened it to reveal the wild duck egg inside.

"Auntie Guo, these 16 wild duck eggs, do you want to keep them for yourself or have them bought from the supply and marketing cooperative?"

Guo Chunhua looked around. It was noon and no one passed by or came in.

He quickly put the wild duck eggs into the drawer.

"Xiao Feng, I won't hide it from you. There is a shortage of food everywhere right now. It will become increasingly difficult to raise chickens. There will be fewer and fewer eggs, including chicken eggs."

"I'll give you 10 cents for a wild duck egg, a total of 1.6 yuan, but I'll give you five extra soda coupons, what do you think?"

"Auntie, aren't you going to buy a soda for Dezhao?"

"If he had half the ability you have, I would give him all the soda coupons."

After receiving 1.6 yuan and five soda coupons, Chen Feng prepared to leave.

Guo Chunhua whispered, "Xiaofeng, if you catch a wild duck or see wild duck eggs, you can come to me. I promise I won't let you get cheated."

"Okay, Auntie."

Chen Feng agreed immediately. Their supply and marketing cooperative had a wide range of channels and had specific targets and tasks for purchasing local products for department stores, but the prices were a bit steep.

Private exchange, he is willing.

But when it comes to showing love, he can't do it.

As soon as I returned to the yard, I smelled the aroma of chives.

"Hello, Brother Xiaofeng."

A group of children who had played outside came home for dinner. When they passed by the front yard, they took the initiative to greet Chen Feng.

"Hello."

While we were having lunch, a lively greeting ceremony was still going on next door.

When Zhou Qing came back and saw the white rice, he was about to say something but stopped himself.

She thought it was too luxurious as she still had to live in the future!

"Mom, don't spoil Xiaofeng too much."

The old lady smiled and said, "He earned the rice with his own ability, why can't he eat it himself?"

"We can eat such delicious rice thanks to him."

"Oh, yes, yes, mother is right!" Chen Jianguo drank a glass of wine for a long time, tasted the dried knife fish in small sips, and praised it endlessly: "Xiao Feng, keep up the good work. In a week at most, I will get you the hero you want most."

Chen Jianguo was talking about the Hero brand pen.

The Hero brand fountain pen was originally established in the Republic of China and is one of the famous brands of fountain pens in Shanghai.

The 100 Hero was successfully developed, and the Liberation Daily published an article titled "The Heroic Spirit of the Hero Golden Pen - Catching up with the United States in 2-4 Years" to report it. It won the National Silver Medal, and the Shanghai Tianma Film Studio shot a movie called "Hero Catching up with Parker".

"Uncle, I want it too!" Chen Hao begged.

"Me too!" Chen Li also shouted.

"You two should wait until you become Young Pioneers," Chen Jianguo said with a smile.

Chen Feng vaguely remembered that the Hero brand fountain pen was born in an exaggerated style and had major quality problems.

"Uncle, you should buy a Parker."

Parker pens are now a mainstream, mature brand that has withstood the test of time. Although they are American pens and cannot be circulated domestically, they are still available in many consignment stores.

"Are you sure?" Chen Jianguo asked in surprise.

"I now think that a pen just needs to be useful, the name is not important."

Chen Feng gave him a piece of egg and said, "Hero is a good name, but heroes usually have bad fates."

"clever!"

Chen Jianguo gave him a thumbs up.

"Pong Pong Pong!"

As the family was talking, the sound of a kitchen knife vibrating violently came from next door.

"I hope Master Yi will come back soon."

Chen Hao asked: "Second Uncle, aren't you a policeman? Why don't you care?"

Chen Jianguo touched his head and said, "I am in the criminal investigation team, responsible for serious cases. This kind of thing is the responsibility of the police station. If I interfere, it will be a thankless task. They didn't call the police themselves, so why should I care?"
