Chapter 175 Each family is fined five yuan
When Gu Youhui and Gu Youtao came down from upstairs, Lin Shu was a little surprised, "Why didn't you go back to your grandma's house with your parents for the holidays?"
< br>Gu Youhui yawned : "I just came back from New Year's greetings a few days ago. There's not much to go to. There are so many people there, and I have to queue up for lunch. I'd rather be at home."
The younger children in my uncle's family also like to fight, crying and howling. , there was no moment of silence, it was too noisy.
"Gu Chunru should follow my mother." Gu Youtao said.
Lin Shu nodded: "I haven't seen her since I got up. She must have gone with her."
Gu Youhui was not surprised, "Ever since she was a child, she liked to follow my mother most to visit relatives. I knew she would go with her without asking. ”
Children in this era like to follow their adults to visit relatives. Because of limited conditions, they usually eat glutinous rice and can only eat delicious food when visiting relatives.
Lin Shu raised her wrist and looked at the time. It was almost eleven o'clock.
The two boys got up and waited for breakfast and lunch together.
The eldest, second and third bedrooms all went to their parents' house to celebrate the festival. At noon, only the old couple, the two boys from the eldest bedroom, the two boys from the second bedroom, Lin Shu and Gu Jiu, and the nanny were left at home for dinner.
It is very comfortable for nine people to sit at a table, but the food prepared by the nanny cannot be careless.
The aroma coming from the kitchen made the two young men who had not eaten breakfast a little restless, and the biscuits on the table made them eat a lot.
Gu Youhui drank all the water in the teacup and stood up, "I'll go upstairs to wake up those two boys, Youjiang and Youfeng."
Lin Shu said to Gu Youhui, who was about to go upstairs. : "Just call your uncle and ask him to come down. Dinner will be served later."
"Okay."
Lin Shu ignored Youhui who went upstairs and said to Youtao who was sitting there drinking water: "If you are hungry, just eat some biscuits to cushion the meal. I will go to the kitchen to see if the food is ready. Are you done?”
The kitchen nanny has been busy all morning and has already prepared several large dishes, leaving only two vegetables and desserts.
Lin Shu helped clean the table first, and then set out the dishes, chopsticks and wine glasses.
Wang Suzhen poured the stewed pig's feet and lotus root soup into a basin, took out the steamed pork ribs and sprinkled them with chopped green onion.
The boys washed up and ran downstairs, smelling the aroma wafting from the kitchen and screaming.
Gu Jiu came down and saw Lin Shu setting the dishes and chopsticks. He helped her sit down and asked his nephews to set the dishes. He asked Youhui to go to the kitchen to help bring out the dishes.
Pork trotters stewed with lotus root, rice flour steamed pork ribs, sweet and sour pork ribs, steamed cured fish with black bean sauce, four meat dishes are served on the table, which can make a few half-year-olds salivate.
Gu Changsheng seemed to have come downstairs smelling the smell and sat at the main seat. His grandson personally helped him pour wine. He looked at the hard dishes on the table and was very satisfied.
Wang Suzhen put a plate of deep-fried and brushed Yuanxiao on the table and said with a smile: "If you know how to drink, have a drink with your grandpa. If you don't know how to drink, just eat more. Today at noon, we will try to make it more delicious." All these dishes were wiped out.”
Those who go back to celebrate the festival can only smell the fragrance in the air when they come back.
After hearing this, the happiest people were the four young men. Meat and vegetables were their favorite at their age.
Lin Shu likes to eat sweet and sour pork ribs the most, and also likes to drink pig's trotter soup, pink and glutinous lotus root, soft and chewy pig's trotters, a bowl of which is both satisfying and nutritious.
The only pity is that the system mall currently only sells pork and fish, and you can’t even try to change the taste. I just don’t know what products will be added to the mall in the next upgrade?
Like meat, will beef, mutton, chicken, duck and other meats be added?
Finally, eat some green vegetables to relieve fatigue, and you will basically be full after one meal.
The men wanted to drink, and chatting while eating was quite time-consuming. After Lin Shu finished eating, he sat back by the stove in the living room to warm himself up, and leaned on the sofa to check the system.
The system points have reached 87,505 yuan, and there are still more than 12,000 yuan left to upgrade again. If not for the growing belly, Lin Shu would have wanted to take advantage of the beginning of spring. The system can be upgraded in more than a month.
Just considering the pregnancy, everything has to be postponed. No wonder women in later generations say that getting married and having children delays their careers.
Besides, Jiang Chaohong brought the meat back home. When the meal started at noon, he saw potatoes and vegetables on the table besides tofu. Finally, Jiang Mu brought a plate of pork belly and fried carrots.
Jiang Chaohong saw the carrots stir-fried with meat and pulled out a few pieces of meat, and his face tightened: "Mom, I brought such a big piece of meat back, why did you just cook these pieces of meat to send us away?"
You are back for the festival. Not only her family, but also the eldest sister's family of six, the second sister's family of five, plus their family of four, there were fourteen guests alone. This does not include my mother's family, my brother's family, and my brother's family.
Nearly twenty people, how do you eat this order?
“From the Chinese New Year to now, I have been eating big fish and meat every day for half a month. Now it is time to return to the original days. Otherwise, how can I adapt to the simple meals in the future?”
After Jiang’s mother educated her daughter, she warmly greeted her sons-in-law to eat more and said they were welcome.
Anyway, they are sweet-mouthed and cruel-hearted, and on the surface, no one can find fault. What can the sons-in-law do?
I could only smile and have a few drinks with my father-in-law.
After lunch and leaving Jiang’s house, Gu Zhiyuan asked with a dark face: “What happened to that piece of meat today?”
If it weren’t for the dinner table, Jiang Chaohong would have let the matter slip. He didn't know that this prodigal woman had actually brought a piece of meat from home.
They didn’t have meat tickets, so they knew without thinking that Lin Shu bought this piece of meat yesterday.
Jiang Chaohong felt guilty for a moment, rolled her eyes, and remembered the two children following her, "Who are you showing your face to? In front of the children, you have no idea what to say and what not to say?"
Gu Zhiyuan felt so humiliated that he was so anxious that he did not worry about the children and questioned Jiang Chaohong in front of them.
"In order to get some meat for your family, you are really shameless." He said this with a bit of gritted teeth.
Jiang Chaohong knew that he could not express his temper in front of the child. After listening to his words, he snorted carelessly, thinking that she was not the only one who took the meat away from home, there were others at home. There are two accomplices.
Before returning to the compound, I met my second brother and second sister-in-law unexpectedly, who were also returning to their parents’ home for the holidays.
Jiang Chaohong and her second sister-in-law looked at each other, and they all understood each other tacitly. However, she didn't see anything strange in the face of her second brother Gu Mingqi, which only meant that his second brother didn't know the truth yet.
Gu Zhiyuan didn’t even know that his second sister-in-law was also involved in this matter.
The children from both families ran ahead and entered the house first. The aroma of the lunch meal immediately attracted the children's attention.
“Wow, it smells so good, grandma, what did you eat for lunch? It smells so good.”
Gu Chunlan’s nose is like a dog’s nose, she sniffs and runs away Arriving at the dining table, "Wow, grandma, you ate steamed pork ribs and pig's feet soup. I'm hungry again."
Gu Chunjing, who followed them in, was older than them and could still control his appetite.
The other two little boys in the third room were so greedy that they couldn't bear it. In addition, they didn't eat enough at the Jiang family at noon, so they were complaining that they were hungry.
Wang Suzhen patted Gu Chunlan's butt and said, "Don't lie down on the table. Be careful of drool falling into the dish bowl. There is still rice left in the rice pot. It should still be warm at this moment. Go and bring the rice. Eat with my brothers.”
Wang Suzhen snorted coldly and didn’t bother to pay attention to the sons and daughters-in-law who came in behind.
The children cheered and went to the kitchen to get the dishes.
Jiang Chaohong moved to the dining table and looked at the remaining pig's trotter soup, steamed pork with rice noodles, and half a bowl of cured fish with black bean paste. "Mom, you had a good lunch."
The meat was divided among them, and the family could also steam rice flour and steamed pork ribs. Could it be that my siblings bought pork ribs yesterday?
However, smelling this fragrance, I really want to pinch a piece of ribs and taste it.
Wang Suzhen looked at her with a half-smile, "The food is not as good as yours. Did you eat braised pork at your parents' house?"
"When you go back to celebrate the festival, will your mother-in-law cook braised pork for you to eat, or steam steamed pork with rice flour?"
The two daughters-in-law felt guilty after hearing this. Gu Zhiyuan was ashamed and felt ashamed to see others.
Only Gu Mingqi didn't hear the undercurrent in his words. He walked to the table with a smile and rubbed Gu Chunlan's head, "Mom, you guessed it right. My mother-in-law made steamed pork with rice flour. , it can be seen from the lunch dish that you and her really have a tacit understanding.”
One steamed pork belly and one steamed pork ribs, it’s just a tacit understanding.
Wang Suzhen tacitly wanted to use foul language and accept the meat she had prepared for the festival. Of course, she had to pretend to be generous in front of her daughter, son-in-law and grandson.
She glanced at Jiang Chaohong, who was silent, lowered her head and asked Gu Youming, who was chewing ribs, "Mingming, tell grandma, what did you eat for lunch at grandma's house?"
"Potatoes, vegetables, radishes, tofu . ”
“Pfft!”
Li Ling laughed unkindly, oh, this third brother and sister’s mother is so picky, she accepted a piece of meat and didn’t even entertain the guests. Be willing to take it out.
Several children looked at Li Ling confused, wondering why she was smiling?
Wang Suzhen glared at her, looking honest and a clever person.
Li Ling looked at Jiang Chaohong's burning eyes and coughed softly: "Youming, today is the festival, so your grandma didn't cook meat for you to eat?"
Gu Youming took a piece from the basin. Pig's trotters, shook his head and nodded: "I cooked a few pieces of meat, but they were snatched by others and I didn't catch them."
Tsk, Gu Zhiyuan covered his face, said hello to everyone and went upstairs. Rested.
Li Ling shook her head: "I heard that your uncle's fruit shop is very profitable, but why doesn't he buy more meat for you to eat? It's really pitiful that you have no meat to eat during the festival."
"No." Gu Youming nodded in agreement, but it didn't stop him from chewing the meat at all.
Wang Suzhen saw the children's enthusiasm for eating. After eating the meat, they drank all the soup. She was afraid that the soup was too cold and would cause stomach upset, so she asked the nanny to heat up the soup and give it to the children. .
For dinner in the evening, except for half a bowl of cured fish, half a bowl of chili and eggplant skins, and a pot of Yuanxiao, the rest was all vegetables.
Jiang Chaohong thought about the half bowl of ribs and half bowl of pig's feet soup that the child had finished in the afternoon, and felt that her mother-in-law did this on purpose.
“Lin Shu, what does your friend do?”
Lin Shu raised his head and looked at her with confusion, "What friend?"
Jiang Chaohong raised an eyebrow: "A friend who can help you buy meat. Can we ask him to help us buy meat?"
Lin Shu: "Okay, one cut, one dollar per catty. Sister-in-law, just tell me how much meat you want in advance."
"So expensive?" Jiang Chaohong frowned slightly, "A pound of pork on the market only costs 70 cents."
Gu Jiu couldn't get used to the way she wanted to take advantage of her, and was afraid that you would take advantage of her, " Sister-in-law, there are also meat coupons in the market. Do you have meat coupons? If so, go to the market and buy them. It’s a good deal.”
Gu Zhiyuan was delighted when he heard that Lin Shu could buy meat. He quickly took out five yuan from his pocket and stuffed it into Gu Jiu's hand, "Young man, go buy a few kilograms of meat tomorrow and bring back some food for the family." . ”
Gu Jiu noticed Jiang Chaohong’s frown and smiled. Putting it in his pocket, he said, "Okay, I'll go over there tomorrow and see if there's any pork belly. If so, I'll buy some. Pork belly is delicious whether it's stewed in soup or used to stir-fry chili peppers."
"Well, stir-fried pork belly is a good choice for food and drinks." Gu Changsheng agreed very much.
Then he looked at the eldest and second eldest son: "You two should each give your mother five yuan, which will be used to improve the food at home this month."
"Ah, we also Want to pay?" Gu Mingqi didn't understand what he meant.
Five yuan can buy several kilograms of meat. There is no need to buy meat three times in half a month to improve your life, right?
“I’ll give it to you if I ask you to, but it’s so long-winded!” Gu Changsheng thought of how these daughters-in-law would take away the meat prepared for the festival in the early morning without even saying hello, and he got angry just thinking about it.
Since the younger daughter-in-law said that the meat is one pound and a pound, let them each pay five yuan, which means they bought the meat from the younger daughter-in-law.
Gu Xiang and Gu Mingqi paid the money honestly. Paying an extra five yuan would allow them to eat a few more meals of meat. It was a good deal!
After the Lantern Festival, the Spring Festival has truly passed.
Gu Jiu's business can add rice and other daily necessities, and can sell fish, but not meat, because the meat sold in the store must have a quarantine stamp, and the meat in Linshu Mall does not have a quarantine certificate.
However, it is not bad to make money, at least it can enrich the dining tables of old customers.
For food, there is no need to watch the children at home howl with hunger.
Gu Youhui even directly hired people to help decorate the hotel. The meat from the mall cannot be sold in the store, but it is fine for him to open a store after wholesale. The staff of the epidemic prevention department will not ask the hotel for a quarantine certificate.
The children at home went to school and went to work, and the house suddenly became quiet again.
As the weather gets warmer, it’s the season of blooming mountain flowers.
Lin Shu’s belly was getting bigger and bigger, and his mouth became greedy.
"Gu Jiu, I want to eat cold gardenias. Can you take me to pick them tomorrow?"
Gu Jiu touched her pregnant belly and said, "What are you pregnant with?" Twins, it’s eight months old, are you sure you want to ride a bicycle up the mountain?”
Cycling with such a big belly is really inconvenient, Lin Shu is also afraid, but the greed is true.
"What should I do?"
Gu Jiu said without thinking: "If you want to eat, I will ride to the mountains in the suburbs to pick some back tomorrow. You just stay at home to raise the baby and don't go out. You are so A big belly is too dangerous. "
As long as Lin Shu accidentally falls outside with such a big belly and is not full-term, he can't even see his toes. It's really fatal.
The big ones suffer, and the small ones also suffer.
After Gu Jiu spent seven months with Lin Shu, he lived in fear every day, fearing that something unexpected might happen to her.
Lin Shu's goal was achieved, and he nodded obediently and agreed, "Okay. You can pick more. I want to eat it cold, and I also want to make dumplings stuffed with gardenia."
Gardenia has the functions of clearing away heat and detoxifying, etc. Efficacy: Take it several times before giving birth to eliminate fetal toxins.
"Okay, I will arrange this, and you can raise your baby at home with peace of mind." What Gu Jiu promised was action.
The next day we had breakfast early and set off on a bicycle.
