Reborn in 1940 and survived until the new century

Even though you can only buy some sweet potatoes privately, it is better than not buying anything at all.

As for the meat, I'm thinking of making more bacon and salted pork while the weather is not too hot, and save it for later consumption.

I was afraid that Guo Huaian would disagree before, but after I found out that he also loved meat, I proposed it.

"How about we buy some meat?"

"I want to, too?

But look at this courtyard, except for Uncle Zhang and his people, the others are not good people!"

"so what?

As long as we buy the meat, there will always be a way, right? "

“What method?

You tell me first! ?

If it's suitable, we'll buy some and eat it back."

"You can't just cook the meat after you buy it. Can't you make it into bacon, salted meat, or deep-fry it and put it in a jar?"

"Is this okay?"

“Of course you can?!

But there are too many people living in our yard right now, so I’m afraid there’s nothing we can do about the jar meat?

Bacon and bacon are simple.

Once it’s done, we can put this piece in when we steam buns next time and keep it for later consumption.”

"Then let's have bacon and salted pork. Even if we don't have to eat meat every day, at least we can eat it once every few days.

But if we do this, then when we buy meat later, we have to hide it secretly, right?"

"That's for sure, but don't worry, when we have nothing to do on Sunday, we can go fishing and pick some wild vegetables.

When the time comes, just put the meat under the wild vegetables. What about the fish?

Anyone who wants to eat it can go fishing or buy it. It’s cheaper than meat anyway!”

“You know what, this method is really good, let’s do it this way.

After we buy some meat, we'll go fishing, and when our baskets are filled with wild vegetables, we'll come back."

"That's what I mean. It's just a bit redundant!"

"Why bother with so much meat when you can eat it?"

"Too."

Since he started doing this, every time he came back from outside, Guo Huaian would take the fish to process it.

He carried the basket on his back and went straight back to the house, where he took out the meat and put it aside.

Then find the steamed buns made with three-in-one flour that had been made in advance and go to the makeshift kitchen to cook.

As for the meat and wild vegetables in the house, there was no rush to deal with them.

After the man finishes processing the fish, he will process the wild vegetables.

As for fish or meat, I'll talk about it after I finish my meal.

But during this period, if we caught any fish every week, no matter if it was big or small, we would definitely cook it and eat it.

As soon as they smelled the fishy smell, especially when the fish was about to be taken out of the pot, several children in the yard started clamoring for meat.

"Granny, grandma, I want to eat meat! I want to eat meat!"

“Mom, where’s the fish you bought this morning?

Why didn’t you do it?”

At this time, I heard the other party's elders talking.

"Eat, eat, all you know is eating. You are already so old, but you don't know how to be considerate of your parents. Don't you know that it is not easy for your parents to earn money?"

"fish?

Which eye of yours saw me buying fish? "

“Didn’t you buy it?

Isn't that fish in the basin?"

"What are you talking about, you damn kid?"

After hearing this, how could I not know what Mrs. Dong meant?

As for the Du family members living in the upper house, needless to say, they are the kind of people who are greedy for small gains.

In this case, not speaking is the best solution!

Uncle Zhang and Aunt Zhang, who were busy cooking, were talking there.

"The Du and Dong families are not the kind of people who can't make ends meet, so why would they make such a fuss?"

"Old man, you don't understand this, do you?"

"What do you mean?"

"What's the meaning?

Both families, whether it was the Du family living in the upper house or the Dong family living in the south house, felt that Xing girl was a young person and a newly married young wife, and they felt that the young couple were too shy.

I thought that if their child made a fuss, wouldn’t Xing Yatou and her husband have to share the food they cooked in their own pot if they couldn’t stand it anymore? "

"You really would scheme for something to eat?"

"is not that right?

When Miss Xing brings us the fish later, we should just take it and ignore everything else, and don't bother with the other two families.

To avoid the possibility that once we are seen as easy to talk to, the children from both families will be so hungry that they will come to our door asking for food.

Now is not the same as before. The few food coupons we received are only enough for the two of us to eat, but there is no extra food to help others. "

"Don't worry about this. I know that this is not the time to fight. I will not be so stupid as to sacrifice my own family to be generous to others."

"It's good that you know. By the way, when Sunday comes, we will go fishing by ourselves in the river.

Xing Yatou gave us fish because she treated us as her elders, but we can't always accept things from her.

Now we are all free, there is no need for that."

"I know this, don't worry.

It just so happens that I have nothing to do on Sunday, so going fishing by the river is perfect.

It saves me from having to listen to other people beating and scolding the children at home, which makes me feel annoyed. "

"Who said it wasn't? I don't know what these two families mean?"

"Whatever they mean, let's just live our lives well."

"That's right. Please give more advice to Xing Yatou and her husband later."

"We really have to do this. Even though they are both smart people, they may not be able to think of this sometimes."

"Yes."

At first, I just caught the fish and gave it to Uncle Zhang and his family after cooking it.

By the second week, I saw Uncle Zhang going fishing by himself.

After Aunt Zhang went to dig wild vegetables herself, she no longer had any fish to give them to eat.

But even so, if the family makes something delicious, they will send it to Uncle Zhang and his family.

If the old couple makes something delicious, they will also send some to their own home.

As for the other two families, even if they made delicious food, there would not be enough for themselves to share. How could they possibly share it with the other two families to have a taste?

Even though the things may not be valuable, to be honest, love only exists when there is give and take.

Since the other party doesn't have that awareness, who would be stupid enough to be the fool?

But in the eyes of Uncle Zhang and his wife, as long as something is edible, it will not be put out.

After all, they are all people who have fought on the battlefield and know that wild vegetables are not only good things in some cases, but can also save lives.

Not only will they dig wild vegetables as long as they have time, but even if they can't eat them, they will dry them into dried vegetables and save them for later consumption.

At the same time, we were also discovered by Uncle Zhang and others. My husband and I not only go fishing and digging wild vegetables, but sometimes we also go to other places from time to time and ask questions there.
