Song Qingfeng watched his wife changing clothes and said, "Wife, are you not going to the city?"
Going into the city with this weather, I'm a little worried.
Qiao Nianyao came over and kissed her, "Don't worry, I will pay attention to your safety and wait at home until I buy you some meat to stew!"
Song Qingfeng's eyes were full of tenderness when he was kissed.
But I want to say that I don’t eat meat.
He is happy when his stomach is full, but his wife still wants him to eat well.
Qiao Nianyao rode her bicycle into the city.
Although it was cold, Qiao Nianyao had special powers and wore a lot of clothes, so it basically couldn't keep her cold.
There is a lot of snow on the road, and there are two tight baskets attached to the back of the bicycle. These baskets can be used to pick rice during harvest without fear of exposing a grain of rice.
There is one on each side of the left and right sides, which also limits the speed of riding the bicycle a little, but there are still wheels.
Just follow the wheel.
After entering the city, Qiao Nianyao went straight to the black market.
But you just came here for a pretense and to see what is for sale on the black market?
After all, it was the end of the year, and as expected, there were a lot more supplies, such as mutton, pork, and eggs from chickens, ducks, and geese.
Don't think that there are always so many supplies in the black market. These supplies are also in short supply on weekdays. Sometimes you have to be lucky to have money, otherwise you won't be able to buy them.
But now people just say, how much do you want?
This means you can buy it if you have money!
It's just that the things are not here, but elsewhere. The ones here are very limited, and they will only take her to the trading point to trade after being verified.
But Qiao Nianyao didn't need it, so she bought some oranges and apples and put them in the basket at the back. She didn't use anything else.
After wandering around the city for a while, Qiao Nianyao rode her bicycle home.
Then things appeared one by one in the basket attached to her bicycle.
The first thing that appeared was four chickens, all of them naked and killed.
Then there are all kinds of pork, lean meat, pork belly, fat meat, and ribs, all available.
Then there's the lamb, and the lamb chops.
Forget about beef, it’s too rare at this time, so I won’t be able to buy it this time.
There were also bacon and other items that all appeared in the basket. After a while, the basket was almost full, and it was also very heavy, almost tilting to one side.
But soon similar things appeared in the basket on the left, a fifty-jin bag of rice, and a fifty-jin bag of flour.
Qiao Nianyao also stopped the car, took out two sacks that were only available in this era, put them in another bag, and then continued on the road.
The rice and flour at home have been used up, and what is left are all the coarse grains.
Whole grains are mixed with food, but the staple food is still rice and flour, as is the case in her family.
Other people definitely can't do it. Only those who celebrate the New Year can enjoy a meal of noodle soup.
But her family ate it like this, which was actually quite hateful.
It’s no wonder that Yang Da’s family couldn’t bear it any longer and just reported her family.
But although she understood, Qiao Nianyao remembered it.
After all, she didn't steal or rob, so she came to report her family!
This is human nature, but it is also human nature for her to hold grudges, so just don’t let anything fall into her hands, otherwise she will make them look good!
And now that the lamb is gone, I will be jealous of their family in the future!
After getting these supplies, Qiao Nianyao also didn't forget to get some other non-staple foods, such as red dates, kelp and dried shrimps.
There were also melon seeds and toffee, and I also got a lot of them.
After the things were taken out, they were covered tightly and I rode my bicycle home.
When passing by the commune, there is no need to go out to see her master. We made an appointment yesterday to come over to our house for dinner today. When the time is almost up, he will come over on his own.
With this cart of supplies, Qiao Nianyao returned to the village.
"Wife Qingfeng, what did you buy?" It was a sunny day, and there were many people not out for activities. He also saw her carrying two heavy baskets, her eyes shining with gossip.
"I went into town to buy some things." Qiao Nianyao nodded politely to the other party, but the bicycle did not stop and pedaled home.
"Qingfeng's wife used to be very frugal. Now that she comes back from Qingfeng, she really goes out to get things back." The aunt said.
"I don't know where you got it?"
"Where else can we go, just this place in the city, where you can buy things if you have money."
"..."
The existence of the black market is tacitly acknowledged by everyone.
Although it is illegal, its existence is reasonable.
During the difficult times in the early years, although food there was extremely expensive, people could still buy food and not starve to death.
Don’t talk about these.
Qiao Nianyao had already arrived home. She parked her car at the door and took two baskets of things into the house.
Let Dahuang watch the door, and then she came to Song Qingfeng's room first.
"Daughter-in-law, come here and have a rest." Song Qingfeng also felt relieved.
Qiao Nianyao smiled and took the water and drank it before sitting down to rest for a while, "Is there anyone at home today?"
"Auntie is here."
Qiao Nianyao said: "I went to the city today and spent a lot of money to buy hundreds of kilograms of meat."
Song Qingfeng was also stunned, "So many?"
"Yes, I think eating meat will be of great benefit to your leg recovery." Qiao Nianyao went to put the rice and flour in the backyard woodshed.
The meat and non-staple foods were brought back to the house.
Song Qingfeng was stunned by the amount of meat, "How can you buy so much meat?"
"There is everything in the black market, and you can buy it if you have money." Qiao Nianyao also looked at him, "Did you spend a little too much?"
"Won't."
If it had been done before, Song Qingfeng might have persuaded his wife.
Although the family has a lot of savings and there are things buried in the backyard, they can't bear to eat like this.
After all, I have to raise children in the future.
It is no joke to say that a half-grown man is a poor man.
Song Qingfeng himself came from that age, and it was scary to feel hungry just after he was full.
If you save more money at home, you will have confidence in your life.
Money is a particularly important thing for families.
But Song Qingfeng won't say it now, because these days have passed, and his legs are becoming more and more sensitive.
He really had a feeling that he might get better, that he might get back on his feet!
If he gets better, even if he doesn't go back to the military camp, he can still support his family, and his wife can spend whatever money she wants at home!
Besides, who is this wife doing this for?
My aunt told me that before he came back, my daughter-in-law was reluctant to eat the eggs, so she saved them all and took them to the commune with her to exchange matches for oil and salt!
After he came back, my wife seemed to be spending money lavishly, but what kind of money was not spent on him?
How could he be willing to say a word about his wife?
