Chapter 289 Daily life
Coming out of the alley, Yu Qing put the goods received in the studio this morning into a basket, carried them out and walked out. When she turned the last corner, Xiang Yisen, who was standing next to the car, spotted her at first sight.
Ruan Zheng then saw her coming out with a basket and followed Xiang Yisen's steps towards her.
"Coming out so soon?"
Xiang Yisen asked with concern and reached out to take her basket, but Ruan Zheng grabbed it first.
Yu Qing's hands were empty, "Brother, this basket is a bit heavy."
"It's okay." Ruan Zheng was holding the basket, and of course he saw the contents of the basket.
"...."
When did Qingqing's family have such great ability? When she went in, she got two big pig's feet and half a basket of suet.
Xiang Yisen glanced at the tall uncle in a funny way, stepped forward and held Yu Qing's little hand, "What did you buy?"
As for why he knew she bought something, it was because she often brought out some uncommon or difficult-to-buy things, so Xiang Yisen took it for granted that she had her own way.
Yu Qing smiled softly and said, "See for yourself."
Xiang Yisen looked at the basket in his uncle's hand and looked stunned for a moment, then raised his eyebrows and said nothing.
He opened the car door and let her sit in. He closed the car door and saw that Ruan Zheng had already put the basket in the trunk.
He walked to the other side of the car and got into the driver's seat. He waited for Ruan Zheng to get in the car before driving away.
I passed by a state-owned restaurant and bought some steamed buns and fried dough sticks. After returning home and having breakfast as a family, Xiang Yisen went to the construction site.
"Qingqing, how can I help you?" Grandma Ruan went to the kitchen and saw the pig's feet and suet in the basket. She was slightly startled, "Why did you buy so much meat again? After we leave, do you plan to do it in two years?"
You don’t eat meat anymore, right?”
"Grandma, I can't do it without eating meat for two years."
Grandma Ruan pointed at the basket and hated the iron, but she couldn't bear to scold her loudly: "I can't do it. You still bought so much meat at once and borrowed the meat tickets from your colleagues to pay back, good girl."
Yu Qing was stunned for a moment before she understood the meaning of what grandma had just said, "Ah, grandma, you misunderstood. I didn't use meat tickets for the meat today. I bought it from a friend."
Grandma Ruan's expression calmed: "You don't have to use meat tickets, do you still have such a friend?"
"Um."
"It's just that I didn't borrow the meat tickets from my friends." Grandma Ruan felt relieved.
Yu Qing also breathed a sigh of relief. She bought a lot of meat this time. Fortunately, she only brought out two pork legs and suet, but not the ribs and pork belly.
"Do you want to deal with these two pig feet now?"
"Well, I'm going to clean it and marinate the pig's feet."
"Then let your elder brother help you deal with it." After saying that, Grandma Ruan shouted out the door: "Ruan Zheng, come over and help your sister with the work."
Ruan was packing his luggage and came out of the bedroom when he heard his grandma shouting, "Grandma, what's wrong?"
"Come here and help your sister shave the skin off these two pig feet."
"Wait a minute, I'll take off this coat." Ruan Zheng turned around helplessly, took off his coat and threw it back on the bed.
With the help of her elder brother, Yu Qing smiled and washed the suet and cut it into small pieces with a knife. She would boil out the oil later.
Seeing this, Grandma Ruan plugged in the electric stove, and when the pot was hot, she asked Yu Qing to pour the chopped oil into the pot. She watched beside the electric stove, stirring it from time to time.
"Qingqing, when will you eat so much oil?"
I just brought back more than 40 kilograms of camellia oil today. These two pieces of suet must weigh at least ten kilograms.
"I don't know, grandma, is it convenient for you to eat oil in the provincial capital?" Yu Qing asked.
"We are okay. The gas stamps at home every month are barely enough. Your grandfather's gas stamps are a little more." Grandma Ruan thought about how the gas stamps of several people in her family each month add up to three or four kilograms, which is more than one person for others.
There are many more people who work and eat with the whole family.
"Dishes fried without oil don't taste good. This time when my eldest brother goes back, ask him to carry two barrels of tea oil back. When the lard is boiled, he will also bring back a can."
"You keep this oil for yourself. Don't worry about us. We get a lot of benefits every month. We have no shortage of food and clothing. Just take care of yourself."
Grandma Ruan has been here for two days and she has seen what her granddaughter can do. She is a very carefree person and the oil she produces from frying a bowl of vegetables can be enough for their family to fry vegetables for a whole day.
Meals for these two days are either fish, meat, or chicken and eggs.
Before I finished eating the fish, I bought some pig's feet from here, and I bought two big front feet.
How many times has she made some money on hand?
Thinking about their married life, she was worried about Xiang Yisen!
"Grandma, don't worry about me. I'm living a good life now. Just keep it as a tribute to your elders. Put the lard in a jar and wait for it to cool and condense in the afternoon. You don't have to worry about pouring it out on the way.
Let my elder brother bring it back. Vegetables fried with meat oil will taste better than those fried with vegetable oil."
Grandma Ruan listened with a smile, "Okay, if you have no money on hand, tell grandma."
"good."
Ruan Zheng, who was squatting under the faucet in the yard and scraping pig's feet, was filled with relief. He recognized this sister halfway, and at least she was a grateful girl.
After dinner, Father Xiang went back to the bedroom and changed his clothes. When he came out, he saw his grandfather and grandson busy at work.
"Grandma, you are very busy."
"Father-in-law, we will be finished in a moment. If you are bored, just listen to the radio."
"No, you three are busy. Grandma, Qingqing, I'm going out for a walk." Father Xiang stood at the door of the kitchen, secretly inhaling the scent of the oil.
"Oh, yes, Dad, remember to come back before lunch." Yu Qing told him.
"Yeah, I know."
Father Xiang turned around and left. When he passed by Ruan Zheng, he smiled at him.
Grandma Ruan looked back at the door. She couldn't help the gossip in her heart and asked in a low voice: "Qingqing, what's going on at your father-in-law's house? I've always been curious but embarrassed to ask, why didn't your mother-in-law come over this time?"
"I'm not very sure. I heard Yisen say that his parents divorced because of that period. His mother remarried not long ago in order not to be implicated. His father also remarried a few years ago.
I found a woman who was married for the second time and gave birth to a younger brother, who is about the same age as Beibei and is only a few years old."
Grandma Ruan didn't expect things to be like this, "Then the relationship in his family is quite complicated. It's sad that the couple can't share hardships together."
Yu Qing doesn't like to discuss the rights and wrongs of her elders, but she still has to explain some things, "How should I put it? Yisen was not sent to the countryside in those years, but now lives in a factory in this small city, thanks to his mother's help.
.”
"That's it..." Grandma Ruan shuddered when she thought of an outstanding young man like Yisen working in the fields under the sun every day. "Maybe she has her own considerations."
Without mentioning this topic, Grandma Ruan talked about another matter, "Qingqing, our lady will definitely prepare a dowry for the wedding. What have you prepared here?"
