Siheyuan: Reborn in 59 years of famine, with a wife and daughter
Chapter 34: The Courtyard Shamelessly Freeloading on Spiritual Heritage
Li Yueling said: "There are no more cloth coupons. I have already sold the rationed cloth coupons issued to other families."
Lin Qiye could understand this. After all, his previous life was a lazy and greedy person, and the family depended on Li Yueling alone to support it.
Normally, we don’t have much money to buy food, let alone clothes.
Therefore, it is better to keep the cloth coupons that the state distributes at a fixed quota every month.
It would be better to convert it into money and buy more food.
Li Yueling was very frugal for the sake of this family, otherwise the mother and daughter and the previous owner of the body would have starved to death long ago.
Lin Qiye said: "It doesn't matter, I will find a way to get some more when the time comes."
Lin Qiye knew that in this era, although food coupons and cloth coupons were distributed at fixed quotas, it was not difficult to get them. You could just go to the night ghost market and take them out.
The so-called ghost market is the black market.
Although it is illegal, due to the necessity of life, this place has become a private trading market for many people.
Although the country does not allow it, it has not vigorously stopped it, and many state officials have turned a blind eye to it.
Lin Qiye glanced at Li Yueling's clothes full of patches and felt sad.
In fact, Lin Qiye is the same. The clothes he is wearing now are also covered with many patches.
However, because the former owner of the body is usually more powerful in this family, the clothes he wears, even if they are patched, look much better than Li Yueling's.
This made Lin Qiye even more contemptuous of the previous owner of this body.
This was the first time he had met such a strange man, and it completely subverted his three views.
Li Yueling said with concern: "Qiye, if you really have money, I will buy you and Beibei a set of mine first. I can buy more when I have more money later. I can still wear the one I'm wearing now after mending it up."
"You are so kind. You always think about me and Beibei. Don't worry, our family will live a good life in the future. I will go to the mountains tomorrow and I will definitely hunt some prey. I will come back early and take you to buy new clothes."
The last time he went to Qinjialing, Lin Qiye discovered that there were many traces left by animals there. He believed that even if he went back, he would not be able to find the other adult wild boar.
With the traps he set, he could also hunt a lot of other wild animals, so it would not be difficult to buy new clothes for his wife and Beibei.
As he spoke, Lin Qiye quickly cut wild boar meat and rabbit meat.
Thanks to his excellent knife skills, two small pots of meat were soon placed in front of him.
This wild rabbit is not small, weighing about five kilograms.
As for the wild boar, Lin Qiye cut about ten pounds of it.
It should be enough for the four of them.
Lin Qiye knew that the people of this era were not like those in his previous life. People were well fed and had little appetite, so they could feel full after eating just a little.
People of this era usually don't have oil and water, and can only eat until they are full. But if they suddenly have a meal of meat, they will eat to their heart's content. Their appetite can be several times that of the people in Lin Qiye's previous life.
Soon, the ingredients were prepared. In fact, due to poverty, this family did not have any good ingredients.
However, for Lin Qiye, an old chef in the kitchen team who has certain cooking experience, he can make a pot of delicious braised wild boar meat and braised pork with only these ingredients.
Lin Qiye also scooped a large spoonful of lard into the pot without hesitation.
Li Yueling was heartbroken seeing this. If it were her, she would probably only be willing to use one fifth of the amount of oil that Lin Qiye did.
After all, life is not easy these days. The dishes on everyone’s table are just a few drops of oil floating on them, and that’s called meat dishes.
The vegetarian dishes in later generations do not contain as much oil.
I could see the reluctance in Li Yueling's heart.
Lin Qiye smiled and said, "Don't worry, wife, after we finish eating, I will make money to buy more. If you don't add more oil to the braised pork and stewed pork, it won't be fragrant at all."
Li Yueling nodded reluctantly, but her heart was still bleeding.
With a sizzling sound, Lin Qiye put the prepared chili peppers, peppercorns, garlic and other condiments into the pot. After shaking the spoon, the whole oil turned golden yellow and with the addition of chili peppers, it instantly turned into a fragrant red oil.
Smelling the aroma coming from the pot, Li Yueling couldn't help swallowing.
So delicious.
Even He Yushui, who was playing with Lin Beibei outside, couldn't help but hug Lin Beibei and walked into the kitchen.
Both of them had a drooling look on their faces.
Afterwards, Lin Qiye poured the meat into the pot.
Once again, accompanied by a burst of sizzling sounds of frying, the aroma of wild boar meat instantly filled the entire kitchen, and even drifted out of the kitchen, spreading from the West Extension Courtyard to the entire courtyard.
"Oh my god, whose family is cooking meat? In this disaster year, aren't they celebrating the second half of the month?"
Xu Damao wrinkled his nose and smelled the fragrance, and his saliva started watering instantly.
Lou Xiao'e, who was bringing the dishes to the table, sniffed them and said, "Who else could it be? It's obviously Lin Qiye's family. They just hunted a wild boar and a wild rabbit, so they must make a delicious meal."
Xu Damao raised his horse face and looked at the vegetarian dishes on his table. He took another deep sniff of the meaty aroma in the air, and his Adam's apple couldn't help but roll again.
But he said stubbornly: "You idiot, you just eat meat, but you deliberately make it smell so good. Are you bullying someone who has never eaten meat? Next time when I go to the countryside to show movies, I will also kill a big rooster and eat it."
Lou Xiao'e also said proudly: "Yes, who hasn't eaten meat? In this compound, our family still eats the most meat meals."
What Lou Xiao'e said was indeed true. In this compound, she and Xu Damao indeed lived a pretty good life. Not only did they have no burden, but Xu Damao's monthly salary as a projectionist was also not low.
Sometimes, Xu Damao would take the factory's projection equipment and cameras and take on some private jobs outside. At the end of the month, the couple could not only eat meat every three to five days to improve their food, but also save money every month.
Although the income is not as much as that of a fitter like Yi Zhonghai, it is still very comfortable.
Although Yi Zhonghai's family has a higher income than them, Yi Zhonghai and his wife are rather stingy and rarely eat meat.
It is euphemistically called health preservation, but in fact it just means saving more money to prepare for future retirement.
In the backyard of the deaf old lady's house, the deaf old lady had already eaten, but when she smelled the aroma of meat, she couldn't help but come out with her crutches.
Following the smell, we arrived at Xituoyuan.
"It turns out that Lin Qiye's family is cooking meat. After all, I am also the ancestor of this compound. They should at least know some etiquette and let me have a meal."
Thinking in her mind, the deaf old lady came to Lin Qiye's house with a cane, but just as the deaf old lady was about to step over the threshold.
Lin Qiye just came out of the kitchen carrying the prepared braised wild boar meat and placed it on the table.
Looking at the deaf old lady's behavior, Lin Qiye suddenly felt a little disgusted. Why are there so many people like this in this compound? Jia Zhang is such a person, Yan Bugui is such a person, and this deaf old lady is also such a person.
Lin Qiye taunted, "Old lady, it turns out that the spirit of coming uninvited and shamelessly begging for food in our compound was inherited from you. I thought only Jia Zhang would do this."
