Soon afterwards, Zhou Yi's father Zhou Zhongguo also came, and also brought Zhou Xiaoshu and Zhou Xiaohua from next door. If Zhou Xiaoshu hadn't run over to report the news today, Zhou Yi would not have known that there was danger at home at the first time, so he called them
You should come to eat.
Everyone sat under the sweet-scented osmanthus tree, looking at so many dishes, they couldn't help but swallow their saliva. Song Xi gave Zhou Xiaoshu and Zhou Xiaohua a full bowl of whole grain rice, fearing that they would be embarrassed to pick up the dishes, so she gave them another
He picked up a lot of vegetables and said softly, "Little tree, little flower, you eat."
"Thank you, auntie." The two children thanked Song Xi in a somewhat reserved manner. Fortunately, Song Xi was sitting next to them, otherwise they would have been even more nervous, especially Zhou Xiaoshu. He felt that he had just done a very ordinary thing, but he didn't expect it.
Uncle Zhou Yi unexpectedly invited them over for dinner, and cooked so many delicious dishes, including pheasant, fish and bacon. It was more sumptuous than everyone else's New Year's Eve dinner.
Knowing that Song Xi was afraid of snakes, Zhou Yi placed the snake soup in front of Sheng Jiahe and stayed away from Song Xi. Song Xi only ate egg soup, fried sweet potato sticks with bacon, vinegar-filled potato shreds and fish head soup. She didn't eat any other dishes.
bump.
Zhou Zhongguo didn't like to stay with young people. He found it noisy and had no common topics, so he hurriedly ate a bowl of rice and left. Zhou Xiaoshu and Zhou Xiaohua, who were young and had small appetites, ate quickly.
Gone home.
There were only five of them left at the dinner table. Zhou Ping sighed while eating, "Zhou Yi, I didn't expect your cooking skills to improve so much. This potato shreds are crisp and refreshing, and the diced potatoes are spicy and soft, so delicious."
"These two dishes were not made by me, but by Xiao Xi." Zhou Yi told the truth. After speaking, he looked at Song Xi with great tenderness and fiercely fed the single dogs across from him a bowl of dog food.
"It's delicious, very delicious. It's better than what the chef of that state-owned hotel makes." Sheng Jiahe occasionally goes to a state-owned restaurant for a big meal, but he didn't expect that today he had a meal here that was even better than the state-owned restaurant.
Things to eat.
He really envied Zhou Yi for being so lucky to meet Song Xi.
"It's not what I cook that tastes good, it's the potatoes that taste delicious no matter how you cook them." Song Xike didn't dare to admit that she was good at cooking, otherwise what would happen if this group of people came to her door every day in the future? She wouldn't be a cook.
After the meal, Song Xi felt that Zhou Yi and his friends were really good people. When they were together, they did not talk about dirty jokes. You must know that when men are together, what they like to talk about most is topics about women, which seems extremely...
They seem to be vulgar, but here, they are not like that, and their eyes are all simple and pure, and they look like kind-hearted people.
Song Xi is not willing to associate with thoughtful people. There will be no danger in associating with people like them.
Moreover, distant relatives are not as good as close neighbors. It is always right to have a good relationship with good neighbors and good friends. What’s more, little ‘Song Xi’ has no distant relatives. Those people in the Song family are all devils.
"You guys eat slowly, I'm full." Song Xi returned the bowls and chopsticks to the stove, and soon brought a few cups of green tea over. Drinking green tea in summer can clear away heat and purge fire.
When Song Xi brought tea over, she happened to hear them talking about frogs. She handed the bamboo cups to a few people, then sat down next to Zhou Yi and asked curiously, "You were just talking about frogs. What's wrong with the frogs? Is there any problem?"
?”
"We said we would catch some frogs and bring them back to eat at night," Zhou Ping explained.
Song Xi knew that people in poor times ate everything, especially in the first two years, grass roots, leaves, grasshoppers, and bugs, so eating rat meat and frog meat was actually quite normal.
The original little 'Song Xi' was acceptable because everyone survived like this, but now she is the modern Song Xi and cannot accept eating game, but she will not look down on others because she
You know, it's not easy for everyone.
"Materials are in short supply. The supply in grocery stores in the city is very tight. It is also difficult for city people to buy grain and fresh vegetables. Even if they have money and tickets, it is useless because there is only so much supply every day. Since you
If you are good at catching frogs, why not talk to the grocery store about cooperation? Frogs are also a meat dish! Or try it at the commune market and purchasing station, maybe you can increase your income."
If she hadn't seen these people have a good relationship with Zhou Yi, she wouldn't have reminded them.
Nowadays, private business is nothing more than speculation and undermining socialism. However, there are still markets allowed by the superiors to allow farmers to do some transactions with agricultural products. Otherwise, the farmers will starve to death. Who will grow food? The people from the superiors
I also have my own considerations. Some things are not so perfect, but in one and a half or even two years, the market may not exist.
It doesn't matter if the market no longer exists. There are still night markets. City people all need to eat. If they don't have enough to eat, they will naturally think of other ways, so the night markets will always exist.
They didn't know that there was a market allowed by the superiors in the commune. Maybe it was because the information was too limited and everyone had no channels to know what was going on outside. Little Song Xi definitely didn't know about it either, but she, a modern Song Dynasty,
Xi, knowing the history, naturally knew some of the situation, and she had already inquired about the situation from Li Qingqing last time.
If you have anything you don’t know in the future, you can ask Li Qingqing.
Zhou Ping's brows were knitted together, and he could have pinched a fly. "We have tried selling frogs before, but unfortunately we couldn't sell them. It's too troublesome to deal with. Everyone in the city has a job, and no one wants to spend the money."
Time to deal with this.”
When he first thought the frogs tasted good, he once went to the city near the factory and tried to sell the frogs to people with wages in the city. No matter how cheap he sold them, no one wanted them.
"Do the people in the city think it's troublesome to deal with it?" Hearing this, Song Xi pursed her lips and frowned. After a while, her eyes lit up, as if she had thought of some good idea, "Then you guys tonight
Go grab some, then wash and cut it and bring it over tomorrow morning. I have a method here. We can try it first. If it doesn’t work, we will think of other methods."
"Okay." Zhou Ping, Sheng Jiahe, and Mo Jiaxiang looked at each other, and their expressions brightened to the naked eye. Song Xi had read books and must know more than them. Maybe she really had a good idea.
!
Song Xi thought for a while and then said, "You'd better come here at four or five o'clock, otherwise if you come here at dawn and be seen by the villagers, you will definitely be in trouble."
"Okay." Zhou Ping rubbed his hands excitedly, a little eager to try it. Who doesn't want to make money to build a house and marry a wife? He wanted to, especially when he saw that Zhou Yi had married such a good wife, he couldn't wait.
