Chapter 97: Buy mutton, exchange at coupon
"Weak or not, don’t you know the best?" Zhou Qing Bai smirked and covered her lips.
After a while, Lin Qing He beca disoriented. He was more and more like an experienced driver. She was not his opponent at all.
Lin Qing He could only gasp out ’be gentler’. Afterward, she had no ti to speak.
As expected, that evening Zhou Qing Bai was sated once again.
The next day Lin Qing He got up long after eight o’clock. Lin Qing He was very emotional about her present days.
This was simply too extravagant.
After a simple breakfast, Lin Qing He rode over to i Jie.
Now the collection location was switched to i Jie’s house. She didn’t need to go to the slaughterhouse anymore, because she disdained the freezing weather and thought of not doing it.
i Jie was unwilling to cut off this source of inco. Now that she had beco unemployed, she was relying on this thod. She said she’ll go get the goods, and then she(LQH) can go over to her ho to collect it.
Needless to say, Lin Qing He agreed.
The truth was there wasn’t much at coming in. At most, it was five or six jins and when it was less, it was only two or three jins. It can’t earn much.
But even if it was only seven or eight yuan a month, it was still very important to i Jie.
"Still haven’t received notification about your return to work?" Lin Qing He asked i Jie.
"Not yet. Need to wait until there’s a vacancy." i Jie confird.
After giving the at to Lin Qing He, Lin Qing He settled the transaction with her.
i Jie got the money and ntioned with a smile: "Do you want honey? My eldest brother foraged it in the mountain before the snow fell. He gave two jars. I didn’t eat it. Seeing how you like it, take it back."
Lin Qing He’s eyes brightened and said, "Then I’ll take both jars of honey. However, I need to give money. If i Jie doesn’t take the money, then I won’t accept it and go directly to the supply and demand cooperative."
i Jie went inside and brought out the two jars of honey, said, "You don’t have to be courteous with . Just take it."
"I have to pay. i Jie, don’t fight with ." Lin Qing He pushed out the bike, hopped on the bike with the two jars of honey, and stuffed the money to i Jie.
It was according to the supply and demand cooperatives’ price.
It was not cheap, but in Lin Qing He’s opinion, it was great value to buy these two jars of wild honey with this amount of money.
Earlier she bought a can, but that one only had half left.
Every night, after finishing things with Zhou Qing Bai, they have to drink a cup. Cough, it was still necessary even without doing it. So it was consud quickly.
She brought the two jars of honey and pork ho.
It was now mid-December. The last at distribution for this year was on the 25th of December.
For the whole year of this year, her family had no shortage of at. For example, after the winter wheat was planted last ti, her family was allocated a lot and they ate it for several days before they used it up. They had it in a variety of ways.
Two pots of honey were put inside the top of the cupboard. The adults can grab it as soon as they reached out, while the children could not see anything on it.
"I’m going out tomorrow to see if there is any lamb." Zhou Qing Bai watched her co back and stated.
"Alright. If there is any, get more lamb chops/ I like to eat that." Lin Qing He hurriedly interjected when she heard him.
Zhou Qing Bai nodded.
Toward his wife’s at business, he didn’t intervene much. It was a bit questionable. But as soon as he heard that his wife said she had a client and the at she got was imdiately changed hand, he didn’t stick into her business.
So Zhou Qing Bai understood why she ca back so quickly.
In fact, it was all down to his trust in his wife.
The next day Zhou Qing Bai went out to bring mutton back to eat.
Lin Qing He brewed a mutton soup. Only goji berry and red dates were inside. The mutton soup was very flavorful.
Of course, Father Zhou and Mother Zhou weren’t omitted from such a good thing. Approximately a bowl for each person was delivered, accompanied by so small chunks of lamb. Which was also very delicious.
Mutton initially had a unique odor, but Lin Qing He knew how to handle it. Since the mutton soup had no stale taste, the two of them liked it
Old Zhou family had separated now.
After Zhou Xiao i’s bridal return, Father Zhou and Mother Zhou presided over the family division. Each family was allocated a hundred yuans. The other furniture and the food were all divided too. Whoever owned whatever in the house was clearly stated.
However, cooking was still done in the kitchen. When one family finished, the other cooks.
Father Zhou and Mother Zhou handle their own cooking.
As for the matter of old-age care, a certain amount of food supplies were given each season, so which family’s turn it was, they give. It must be clearly stated on the first day.
This was discussed between Zhou Qing Bai and his brothers.
Father Zhou and Mother Zhou drinking lamb soup and eating mutton, had Second Sister-in-law’s son Zhou Xia craving. When he returned, he asked his mother: "Mother, when will our family eat at?"
"The at will be divided in ten days. What you anxious for? I will make dumplings for you." Second Sister-in-law replied.
Second brother was feeling greedy and suggested, "Should we go buy the at first?"
"You have a at coupon?" Disgruntled, Second Sister-in-law uttered.
Rural people do not get at coupons and food coupons. Only those in the city did.
"Old Fourth should have it." Second Brother answered. Over at Fourth’s side, they ate at every few days. He must have coupons."Even there is, with Lin Qinghe’s personality, would she give it to you?" Second Sister-in-law snorted."You can’t be thinking of getting for nothing?" Second Brother looked at her in surprise.Second Brother never thought of taking it for free. He intended to exchange money for it. Even like, they might not be willing. Did his wife plan to get it for free?"What’s called for nothing? After Fourth Brother-in-law retired, I don’t believe he didn’t bring so coupons back!" Enraged, Second Sister-in-law snapped."Even if he did, he must have used up a good bit by now. With Da Wa’s extravagant handiwork, how much can be left? If you want, I can go and ask, but it’ll need to be exchanged with money." Second brother responded.Second Sister-in-law gazed at her son’s puppy eyes. Now that they had separated, she was in control of the money, so why can’t she buy so at to eat?Second Sister-in-law decided: "Then you go over and check. However, you must not give too much!""I’ll go ask now." Second Brother took the money from her and said.Zhou Qing Bai heard that he had co to change for a at coupon, so he looked at his wife. His wife decided on these matters.Lin Qing He smiled at Second Brother and said: "Second Brother ca by at a perfect ti. While you’re at it, drink up this mutton soup?"She had a bad impression toward Second Sister-in-law, while toward Second Brother, she had no complaints.Second Brother shook his head with a smile: "No need, no need. It’s mainly because the lad, Xia Xia saw his grandpa and grandma eat and got back to pester his mother."Lin Qing He said: "Today Qing Bai brought so at back. If Second Brother wants it, I’ll divide so from our portion. My at coupons are almost used, so there’s not much left. And even if I give Second Brother a at coupon, there might not be any stock left after traveling so far at this ti."
