Chapter 66 Returning to the Village for a Banquet(1/2)
The unexpected honest meeting made the two more harmonious.
They are not the kind of people who are selfless and care for the whole family. They must do a good job and take good care of their families.
Such people are more real.
Everything was so harmonious that night.
Even that thing has become more harmonious.
Anyway, it was a harmonious night.
The next day was rare, both of them got up late and didn't get up until after seven o'clock.
You know, in the past, Tong Mei would get up at six o'clock, prepare breakfast for the whole family, and then shout one by one to send them to school.
"Oh! I'm getting up late, what should I do?" Tong Mei was a little anxious, thinking of the madness and shyness of last night.
"It's okay, let Gangzi and Xiangzi go to the entrance of the alley to buy some breakfast, and we'll be extravagant." Zhang Yan lay on the bed and said lazily.
"Okay! That's all I can do. I'll prepare lunch for them later and let them eat hot at noon."
"No, there are still bones left yesterday, right? Take the bones and give them three kilograms of white flour to Sister Ma, and let the six children eat with Sister Ma."
"Three kilograms of white flour?" Tong Mei exclaimed.
Feeling a little too much.
"I'm a half-year-old man, I'm poor. These little guys have a lot of appetite." Zhang Yan said with a smile.
This is not a false sense. Zhang Yan and his family have to eat a pot of steamed buns a day.
One pot can steam more than a dozen large steamed buns.
"Then I can't eat three kilograms of white flour! Our family of eight people have less than one hundred kilograms of white flour in a month."
[Note: The grain quota supply system has been implemented now. For example, Zhang Yan’s 32 kilograms of grain per month is not all fine grains, but grain is distributed in a certain proportion.
From 1953 to 1957, the grain coupon supply system was in the pilot stage, and the proportion of coarse grains and fine grains was basically one to one.
Later, it becomes 30% fine grain and 70% coarse grain.
In order to deal with some special circumstances, various places have specially produced and issued a batch of fine grain stamps.
In other words, you can only buy fine grains with special fine grain coupons.
Generally, grain coupons are purchased according to the proportion of coarse grains and fine grains stipulated by the state.
In five or six years, the food coupons not only contained food, but also edible oil, and soybean oil and peanut oil were also purchased in proportion with food coupons.
After 57 years, after the country's food coupon system was improved, oil coupons were separated from the food coupons.]
Although they can't eat three kilograms of white flour, we can't let Sister Ma work in vain, right?" Zhang Yan said with a smile.
"Okay! I'll give Sister Ma three kilograms of white flour in a while and ask her to help take care of the child.
In fact, Sister Ma often helps take care of the children. Sometimes I am busy on the streets and when I come back late, Sister Ma calls them home to have dinner." Seeing Zhang Yan say this, Tong Mei nodded and agreed.
Tong Mei went out to arrange for Gangzi and Xiangzi to buy breakfast, but she started boiling water and waited for Zhang Yan to get up and wash.
They used up all the hot water they burned yesterday last night.
After breakfast, Tong Mei took the white flour and bones to find Sister Ma and explained the matter of following her meal at noon.
After Sister Ma refused, she happily left her big bones and white flour.
With so many big bones, boiling out the soup and rolling a mixed noodles into it, it won’t be so fragrant that the whole family can improve their lives.
As for the children, they naturally made hand-rolled noodles for them to eat.
Sister Ma is quite good.
If it were some people who like to take advantage of it, Gangzi and the others would definitely be allowed to eat mixed noodles with them.
The noodles made from bone soup are as fragrant as the noodles, so what else can I choose?
Zhang Yan changed into new clothes and brand new big-headed leather shoes. After thinking about it, he took out a pen and inserted it into his left chest pocket.
"Tong Mei, how do you look like a college student?"
"Like a cultural person, a cultural person who is more powerful than a college student." Tong Mei looked at Zhang Yan's outfit and said with a blurred look.
"Haha! Let's go to Minxiang, Dongjiao first, and then get the pork." Zhang Yan smiled proudly.
Zhang Yan rode his bicycle and took Tong Mei to Dongjiaomin Lane.
I don’t know how many men have envied, jealous and hated along the way.
There are also many women who are envious and jealous of Tong Mei.
When we arrived at Dongjiaomin Lane, we found a tailor shop that had already opened. Zhang Yan and Tong Mei walked in.
Seeing Zhang Yan communicating with the other party in fluent English, Tong Mei opened her mouth wide in surprise.
This is too awesome. The surgery is so great, and even English is so awesome.
What else can you do if your own man doesn’t?
After Zhang Yan communicated with the other party, he chose a light gray alpaca wool trench coat, a closure gray alpaca wool sweater, a pair of alpaca wool trousers, a pair of black straight-leg pants, and a pair of half-height black boots.
Originally, Zhang Yan was going to buy a red sweater to make it more gorgeous, but considering that this era is not suitable for wearing such a gorgeous color, he could only choose the most ordinary gray.
Zhang Yan spent six small yellow croakers on these clothes.
They changed their clothes directly in the tailor's shop, and the two of them stood together, and they were like a golden boy and jade girl who made a perfect match.
The excited foreigner kept shouting: "It's Wai Rui Dog!"
This is also due to Tong Mei's good figure, and she was able to support these clothes that were originally prepared for Western women.
After buying the clothes, Zhang Yan took Tong Mei back to Qianmao Hutong.
At the butcher shop at the entrance of the alley, take the ten kilograms of pork reserved by Tong Mei.
He stuffed it directly into his handbag, hung it into the handlebars, and took Tong Mei to Zhangjiayu.
Along the way, Zhang Yan used all the real energy, thanks to the real bicycles made in this era.
Otherwise, Zhang Yan's riding style would be able to scrap his bicycle if he couldn't get to Zhangjiayu.
The cars on the road were overtaken one by one by Zhang Yan, and the drivers stared at each other. What did this guy eat?
How much waist does it take to ride a bicycle faster than a car?
You can't do it if you don't ride faster!
Because I was delayed in buying clothes, it was already past nine-thirty when I left home.
This is more than 40 kilometers away!
If you don't hurry up, you won't be able to catch up for lunch.
We can't invite the whole village to have a wedding banquet until evening, right?
Zhang Yan kicked hard, and when he reached the foot of the mountain, he also saw sweat on his forehead.
Zhang Yan then slowed down. He was less than five miles away from home, and this mountain road was not suitable for fast bike riding.
At this time, it was only half past ten:30.
It took Zhang Yan an hour to ride for 40 kilometers.
After entering the village, I saw from a distance that the village is very lively today.
It must be lively. Zhang Yan treats guests to a table. This is a great joy for the whole village.
Many aunts and aunts come to help, not for Zhang Fusheng, but for Zhang Yan.
"Why did Yanzi come back? The whole village is waiting for you." Zhang Fuquan stood on the hillside and shouted at Zhang Yan.
"Uncle Quan, are you still herding sheep? Don't forget to go to the wedding banquet later." Zhang Junping shouted on the hillside.
After entering the village, Zhang Yan returned home directly.
Although the banquet was arranged by Mr. Zhang Yan, it still has to be placed at Zhang Yan's house.
This is the rule.
What do outsiders think about the appearance of Mr. Zhang Yan’s house?
Whose son is Zhang Yan? He was adopted by his uncle's house?
"Yanzi is back?"
"Yanzi's wife is so handsome!"
"I have known since I was a child that Yanzi is a capable person."
"My aunt Shan, aunt Gui, sister-in-law Gen, sister-in-law Gang, I'm sorry to bother you.
Let’s have a wedding candy first, sweet mouth.” Zhang Yan said hello and said thank you all the way, and Tong Mei followed behind to deliver wedding candy.
Zhang Yan and Tong Mei's approach naturally won praise.
What I see is not this piece of candy, but this heart.
