While poking at his phone, Mu Nan said to Qin Huai, who was processing the cornbone, "Brother, the resident next door added and asked if I could sell them so corn."
Qin Huai turned his head to take a look, and said with a smile: "I guess I could sll the fragrance, give them two, let's sell it, how many people live next door?"
Although they lived on the sa floor, there were not many old residents. Qin Huai rembered that on their floor, half of them were tenants.
Mu Nan shook her head: "I don't know either."
In fact, there is only a balcony between their house and the next door. When the balcony was not completely closed, you could see the next door when you stood on the balcony and stretched your head a little, but now that the balcony is closed, it is completely separated. But if you look at it from the door, Mu Nan's house is only close to Qin Huai's house, which is opposite to him, and the distance to the next door is the left and right sides of the elevator, separated by a whole corridor. So who lives next door, and how many people live there, I really don't know.
Qin Huai said: "Then give two. Even if most people like to eat corn at ho, they won't buy too much. I bought you the individually packaged one. It happens to be two in a pack. I guess there are children in the family. I want to eat it because of the sll, and the two children are almost enough to eat it."
Mu Nan nodded, and said while replying to WeChat: "Then the sound insulation of their house is quite good, I have never heard the noise of children."
Mu Nan wrote back to Yu Zibai who added him: You don’t need to buy it, and the corn costs only a few dollars, but I don’t have many corns at ho, so I’ll give you two. I’ll put them in a plastic bag and tie them on the iron gate of my house. , co and get it yourself.
After a while, Yu Zibai replied a WeChat ssage, and Mu Nan hurriedly said: "Brother, the neighbor said he would give us a bottle of sauerkraut, but I said no, there is sauerkraut at ho, and he said that they pickled it in their hotown and gave it to us Try it. Wouldn’t it be too much of a bargain to exchange two corns for a bottle of sauerkraut? Or give a few more?”
Qin Huai said: "That's not necessary. If you give it to you, you will keep it. If you are a neighbor, if they need anything in the future, just help them if you can."
Only then did Mu Nan say hello, then went to find a small plastic bag and tied the corn to the iron gate. After a while, soone knocked on the door outside. Just as Mu Nan was about to open the door, Qin Huai stopped him: "You stay inside, I'll go."
Qin Huai casually took a mask from the door and put it on before going to open the door. He originally thought that the neighbor next door would be about the sa age as his father, but he didn't want to open the door to see a young man who was about his height. Although he was wearing a mask, he couldn't see his face, but judging from the exposed eyebrows, he should be a handso guy .
Yu Zibo was also a little surprised to see the person who opened the door. He had t the neighbor next door. He must be a college student. He was always wearing a pair of earphones. He seed to live alone. He looks tired and sleepy. He has lived here for almost three years, and he has never had any eye contact with this neighbor, let alone say hello and get to know him, so seeing him is not a surprise. It was only then that Yu Zibai, his neighbor, was surprised.
But Yu Zibai quickly recovered, smiled and said: "Hi, my na is Yu Zibai, I live next door to you, thank you for the corn, this sauerkraut is made by my aunt in my hotown, the taste is okay, but a bit spicy , you can try it if you don’t mind.”
Qin Huai took the sauerkraut and said, "My na is Qin Huai. It's just a little corn. You are too polite. We are all neighbors and young people. We can take care of each other in the future."
Seeing that the other party looked easy to talk to, Yu Zibai felt a little more relaxed, and said: "This kind of special ti, it reflects the saying that distant relatives are not as good as close neighbors. My family is just and my friend. He is treated by you. The corn from ho is so delicious that I can’t help it, I want to say that I have lived here for a few years, and I haven’t t my neighbors, so I took this opportunity to co and get to know each other.”
Things were also exchanged, and we got to know each other. Although we were wearing masks, we had been outside the door for a long ti. Even though there was no fog in the corridor, it still felt unsafe, so we didn’t say much. The two said goodbye and went back to each other. ho. As soon as Qin Huai ca in, Mu Nan chased after him and asked, "What are you talking about at the door? It's been so long."
Qin Huai sprayed the sauerkraut bottle with disinfectant, put it on the shoe rack at the door to dry, went into the bathroom and washed his hands before coming out and said: "I thought it was a family with a child, but it turned out to be two young people, young, and I feel Almost, we got to know each other a bit, and we can take care of anything in the future.”
Mu Nan snorted: "Do you want to add any ingredients to the bone soup? Seaweed, radish or lotus root?"
Qin Huai: "What do you want to eat?"
Mu Nan said: "Let's go, I bought quite a lot of lotus root, the kind of lotus root that I specially picked for simring soup."
Qin Huai humd: "Take it out first, hang up the soup base today, and add the lotus root tomorrow, otherwise it will be rotten into scum tomorrow after simring all night."
Jian Daodao next door ate the corn as he wished, and gave half of it to Yu Zibai with special dedication: "You have worked hard in exchange for corn, and you will be rewarded!"
Yu Zibai found it funny to see him sweep away the decadence just now and co back to life: "Thank you for your generosity."
Jian Chu waved his hand: "You are welco, everyone is a good brother."
After finishing speaking, he gnawed on the sweet corn with a mouthful, and imdiately felt that life was happy. The two shared one piece of corn, and the other one was put in the refrigerator. They bought a lot of things in group buying, all kinds of vegetables, at, bread and cakes, but they didn't see corn, so the rest One of them will be eaten next ti when you are hungry.
As a result, at night, Jian Chu leaned against the balcony door again, slling the fragrance of bones in the air, with a lancholy expression on his face.
Seeing him like that, Yu Zibai couldn't laugh or cry: "Otherwise, our three als can follow other people's recipes, and I feel that other people's food is good. I want to drink soup? Tomorrow I will gather so bones in the group, and recently bought bones There are quite a lot of people here, so there is no need to be greedy.”
Jian Chu rolled his eyes at him: "Which eye of yours sees that I am greedy? I am thinking about life. Sitting here and looking at the empty street outside can calm down my impetuous heart. Soup, what kind of soup, I don't want to drink Soup."
He himself is a student who just graduated this year. Although he has not received his diploma yet, he has earned his tuition and living expenses since he was in college. He has to go to school and work part-ti all these years. It is not easy to support himself He didn't have much savings in his hands at all. After squatting at ho for so long this ti, he was really a little impatient, and he didn't know how many days he could survive if he couldn't make ends et.
And his roommate is a graduate student who also graduated this year and has already received an offer from a large company. As a result, a world-class plague forced him to stay at ho. Although his roommate's life is not as difficult as his, but it is not a wealthy family. His mother died young, and his father had already had his own ho, so he didn't take care of him at all, so Yu Zibai didn't have much savings in his hands. Except for the boil that cut down on food and clothing, where can I afford at.
Those who dare to go out now are all fighting with their lives. It is normal for prices to soar, and when everyone does not go out, almost the entire society has stopped production. No exaggeration, it is not easy to have food. I don’t know when the special potion will be available, and when the world will return to normal. After today, I don’t know what will happen tomorrow. Under such circumstances, how can they be willing to buy it? A few hundred yuan a catty of bones to drink soup.
The desperation in this world is not limited to sick people, but now all eyes are focused on mycelial pulmonary edema, and other financial pressures, in the eyes of those who do not worry about money, where is life more important .
There are many people who worry about money, and there are naturally those who don’t worry about money. Every ti a group buys sothing, as long as they see other people buying, Mu Nan will follow suit. So much so that the volunteers responsible for the delivery knew their family, and even joked: "You and your brother are the only two people in your family. You can buy a lot of this stuff. If you can't finish it, it will be wasted."
Qin Huai smiled and said, "My younger brother is learning how to cook from the Internet recently, making stead buns and a pork shop. It's rare for him to be distracted by sothing. Naturally, he can't be discouraged. Waste will never be wasted. How expensive these foods are now Ah, I can't afford to waste it."
Thinking of the current prices, the volunteers all looked pained: "No, I can't even afford cabbage."
While counting things, Jian Chu also ca out wearing a mask. Volunteers would usually notify the group where they were on the floor, and let those who saw the news in the group co to the corridor to pick up things by themselves, but if others didn’t see it, they would go there Knock on the door, but it's better to save a little trouble and save a little more.
When Jian Chu ca over, the volunteers had just counted out Qin Huai's belongings. Vegetables, at, and several kinds of fruits were piled all over the floor, and Qin Huai was carrying bags ho. Jian Chu also t the neighbor next door, but yesterday Yu Zibo said that there is another person in his family, who is taller and stronger than the college student, and his na is Qin Huai. When he saw the person who was picking up things, Jian Chu guessed that this person should be Qin Huai Oh, the college student they t before should be at ho, and seed to want to co out to help with things, but Qin Huai pushed him in and didn't let him out.
Jian Chu stepped forward and stopped after a distance. Although he was wearing a mask, he could hear a smile from his tone and said, "Hello, my na is Jian Chu. Thank you for your corn yesterday."
Qin Huai turned around and gave a friendly smile: "You're welco, I also want to thank you for the sauerkraut, my brother loves it."
Jian Chu smiled and didn’t say any more, and reported the house number to the volunteers. They only bought a little vegetables, and there was not much in two bags. If you don’t get much, you can’t afford it. A catty of radishes costs twenty or thirty dollars. This is the price suppressed by the governnt. The prices of so private vegetable vendors are even more expensive, but they have many varieties and are fresh, and naturally there are people who buy them. . Now that the price regulated by the governnt is so high, if you continue to stay at ho and cannot go out, I really don’t know what will happen in the future.
