At this time, clothes were mostly bought from cloth and made by oneself, and few ready-made clothes were purchased.
If you want to warm your home, you can buy ready-made clothes, but there is no need to be so high-profile, and the styles of ready-made clothes are fixed and not that good-looking.
In addition, the supply and marketing cooperative in Baishui Commune may not always have goods in stock, so it is better to buy some cloth for convenience.
In the afternoon, Nuan Nuan struggled with the cotton cloth that Yang Rui brought back before.
She has a big belly now, and her old clothes can't fit, so she has to make new ones.
Yang Rui had done two things for her before, but she mainly wanted to learn some skills. After all, staying at home during pregnancy was too boring, so she could pass the time with some work on her hands.
If it had been in the past, she would never have imagined that Nuan Nuan would one day rely on sewing to pass the time.
She had been irritable and angry, and sometimes she even dreamed that she had returned to modern times, and that her experience in the 1960s was just a dream.
However, she finally gave in. Humans are the most adaptable race to the environment. If they cannot change the environment, they can only adapt to the environment and change themselves.
And, gradually, she gets along with Yang Rui more and more harmoniously. With him by her side, her mood will become better and she will feel more at ease.
Thinking of Yang Rui makes you feel at ease.
Nuan Nuan felt that she had slowly taken root in Yangjiatun.
…
Although it was cold at night, Yang Rui wrapped up in a cotton-padded jacket, put on a dog-skin hat, and went out with a pole and basket.
It’s not okay if he doesn’t go, he still has to support his family!
The business in the black market is unstable. What is available today may not be available tomorrow. Yang Rui also wants to save some money.
The daughter-in-law is still pregnant with two children. After a few months, when they are born, they will have two little mouths eager to eat.
My daughter-in-law will definitely be weak after giving birth to two children, so she needs to take more good supplements, which all require money!
Yang Rui is very aware of the crisis, but has no intention of resting on his laurels.
When he thought of his wife and children at home, Yang Rui felt full of strength.
First, he went to pick something from his upline, a masked man. Yang Rui didn't care about the man's burly figure and uncovered face.
After all, in the black market, many people are masked, including himself.
In addition to bringing goods to several downlines, Yang Rui also brought a lot of mutton to his family, asking for it! White Rabbit Milk Candy, I want it! Two cans of malted milk, too!
Then he asked the masked man in front of him: "Brother, do you have any milk powder here?"
The big man with the masked face is indeed a man with connections, he does have this thing. Although he was a little puzzled, although the young man in front of him was masked, he also knew that he was not old and did not seem to need milk powder!
But he doesn't mind, he's not selling to anyone: "Yes, but there are only two bags left, and the price is three times higher than that of the supply and marketing cooperative! Do you want more? How much do you want?"
Although Yang Rui thought it was expensive, he still gritted his teeth and bought it. Before leaving, he told the masked man: "Brother, if you still have milk powder next time, leave some for me!"
The masked man nodded. Although the two of them didn't show their faces and didn't know each other's details, they had been working together for so long, so naturally they had a tacit understanding: "Okay! If there's another time, I'll keep it for you!"
After Yang Rui thanked him, he carried two heavy baskets of things on a pole and left.
After successfully putting the items to be sold off the line, Yang Rui's pole was not so bent. Returned home at a brisk pace.
He made little noise when he came home, was warm and pregnant, and was sleepy. He had fallen asleep long ago and didn't hear a sound.
It was still the small puppy raised at home. It woke up alertly, barked once or twice, and smelled the scent of the person coming. It was the familiar male owner, and then went back to its nest to sleep.
Yang Rui put the mutton in a large vat in the warehouse. It was safer in the warehouse, as it would be easily picked up by animals outside.
And if you put a lid on the big tank, it won't be bitten by mice. In addition, the temperature in the warehouse is very cold, so you can freeze the mutton without worrying about it spoiling.
It can be said that it achieves multiple things with one stone.
Of course, you can put it in a big tank outside the house, but you need to put a heavier lid on top, or you can just put a stone on top.
In this way, no matter what kind of animal it is, don't even think about taking the meat away.
Yang Rui went back to the house and put the malted milk and milk powder in the cupboard.
He just took off his clothes and got into his bed. When his body was warm, he quietly got into his wife's bed.
Nuan Nuan seemed to notice something, but seemed not to notice anything at all.
The body naturally turned towards the source of heat, which was Yang Rui.
Yang Rui hugged his sweet-smelling daughter-in-law, who had thrown herself into his arms without knowing it, and fell asleep contentedly.
When Nuan Nuan got up in the morning, he felt that the whole bed was warm and not cold at all.
Wen Nuan carefully got off the kang and slept all night. Feeling dry, she went to the warehouse to get frozen pears.
I thought about taking it back to the house and eating it slowly, but then I saw the mutton in the big vat.
When I saw these ingredients, I immediately became greedy and wanted to eat the old Northeastern hotpot I had once.
I rummaged through the warehouse again and found dried shrimps, small crabs, seaweed, kelp, Gala meat, and even jujubes and wolfberries.
It took almost half a year for the two of them to build their small home, and it already had such old inventory.
Foodie Nuan said he was very satisfied!
I fished out two sauerkraut from the sauerkraut tank and cut them into shreds.
At this time, Yang Rui also woke up, put on his clothes and came over: "Why don't you wait for me to do it?"
"I do the same thing, it's not a tiring job! You only need this little sleep, is that enough? Why don't you go sleep for a while?" Wen Nuan felt that Yang Rui must not have had enough sleep.
Yang Rui shook his head: "It's okay, I'll just take a nap at noon! What are you trying to make delicious food? What do you want me to do?"
"I saw the mutton you brought back, and I wanted to make a hot pot. Why don't you take some beans and go to Aunt Wang's house to exchange for some frozen tofu? It's great to put this thing in the hot pot to absorb the soup. Eat it!" Wen Nuan suddenly remembered that there was no frozen tofu at home, so he asked Yang Rui to go to someone else's house to change it.
Yang Rui nodded, went to the warehouse to fill a small pot of beans, and went to his neighbor Aunt Wang's house to exchange for some tofu.
Aunt Wang's family has a large population, and there is a stone mill at home. When she has nothing to do in winter, she often grinds tofu. If someone wants to eat it, they can bring some beans to their house to exchange for tofu, or freeze the tofu.
Aunt Wang's family can get some beans as labor wages, and other families in the village can also save a lot of trouble.
After Yang Rui came back with frozen tofu, he took over the kitchen.
Rinse the sauerkraut cut by my wife in cold water, and clean the copper hotpot that I haven't used for several days.
Put the dried shrimps, dried crabs, gala meat, and jujubes in, add boiling water, and salt. This flavor is enough. There is no need to add anything else. This soup base will do.
Then you can start the fire, put the charcoal, and Yang Rui brings the pot to the Kang table in the east room.
Arrange the vermicelli, pickled cabbage, pork slices, mutton slices, and frozen tofu in a circle.
When the water in the pot becomes gurgling, add the frozen tofu and sauerkraut first, then boil the pot and then add the mutton, seaweed, and kelp, and so on.
While it was cooking, I mixed the dipping sauce, sesame paste, chive flowers, fermented bean curd, and chili oil, and it was ready.
There is no need to add anything else. If possible, add some coriander and chopped green onion. Yang Rui and Wenwen don’t have them at home, so they simply don’t add them. These are enough.
Wen Nuan and Yang Rui did not sit face to face, but chose to sit next to each other. After all, the pot blocked their view.
After it was cooked, Yang Rui helped Wen Nuan put a chopstick of frozen tofu and sauerkraut into the bowl.
There is already dipping sauce in the bowl. Warmth will dip the dish in the sauce before picking it up, blow on it twice and put it in his mouth.
The honeycomb eyes of the frozen tofu are filled with soup, and when you bite it, it feels like bursting with juice. Coupled with the unique taste of the dipping sauce, the little taste is simply amazing! Gaga delicious!
Especially fresh and sour!
You can't freeze such delicious frozen tofu in the refrigerator. What comes out of the refrigerator is a bit like the gluten in the cold skin.
It was frozen in the refrigerator. It has eyes, but it tastes very hard.
Naturally frozen tofu has larger honeycomb cells, a good texture, and is soft, much more delicious than those frozen in the refrigerator.
Perhaps it is because of the wind outside and the unstable temperature that the natural frozen tofu has a unique taste.
Sauerkraut was another appetizer, so Wen Nuan and Yang Rui finished the small pot of food directly.
Even the soup is not spared. After all, the soup is delicious and can be eaten smoothly!
