Chapter 81 Acquaintance
Author: cool beauty
Xiao Fang looked at her with a sad face and said quietly: "The premise is that you can get into college."
Xiao Hong hung himself on her angrily, gritting his teeth and tickling her: "Damn girl, you bully me again, don't you know how to expose others and not expose shortcomings? You deserve a beating!"
"Hahaha... don't, I was wrong, let me go..."
Yanyan came back from watching TV next door and saw them making a fuss. She immediately rushed up to her happily and said, "Big sister and second sister, you are back!"
"Yes, I bought you a scarf and a hat." Xiao Hong let go of her sister and put the scarf and hat on the little one. She felt very cute and couldn't help but kiss her a few times: "Yanyan is so beautiful."
Yanyan was so happy that she was praised, and her laughter was as clear as a silver bell.
Nowadays, most middle-aged people are emotionally restrained. What they pay attention to is that a filial son will emerge from the stick, and they will not talk about their love.
They are more willing to express their love through actions, such as preparing three meals a day.
But Yanyan was young and was coaxed into smiling by her eldest sister's sugar-coated bullets and sweet words. She felt that her eldest sister was the best in the world.
While Wu Julan was packing up the things brought by the Xu family, she couldn't help but smile and discuss with her husband when she heard the laughter of her daughters: "The gifts brought by the Xu family are too expensive. How about waiting for the New Year?"
Let’s take some gifts back as well?”
Zhao Laosi's current neighbors all have money in their pockets. When they come over for dinner, they will bring their own wine, and he sometimes joins them in chatting.
He has heard more and seen more, and now he has more knowledge: "It's a generous gift. These two bottles of Moutai cost about forty or fifty."
He thought a little too far and lowered his voice: "You take it up and put it away, and when your future in-laws come to visit you in a few years, you can take it out to entertain guests."
Even though they can earn forty or fifty a day now, Wu Julan still took a breath of cold air: "Are these two bottles of wine so expensive? Why did I think the wine you bought to celebrate the New Year was expensive?"
They had almost prepared their New Year's goods. He bought a box of Jian Nanchun, which cost thirty yuan for six bottles. They all gritted their teeth and bought it in distress.
It's because I made some money this year that I was willing to buy such expensive wine for my parents.
You know, in the past they would buy bulk wine at seventy-eight cents a pound.
The cigarettes are also good. Yun cigarettes cost about 93 cents a pack, and these two items cost nearly 20 yuan.
Zhao Laosan himself does not smoke, so he is thinking of taking it out so that he can pass out cigarettes when visiting relatives during the Chinese New Year.
The other items are about two kilograms of White Rabbit toffees and a large bunch of bananas.
When the couple thought about it, this gift was probably worth nearly a hundred yuan, and they couldn't help but click their tongues.
Life has been much better these years, and when visiting relatives here, most people carry four packages of gifts.
Most of them are one pound of dried longans, one pound of dried lychees, one pound of dried red dates, and one pound of white sugar or brown sugar.
However, when carrying such a gift to a relative's house, many relatives are reluctant to eat it themselves, so they still carry it out as a gift.
Anyway, it is true that the gift went out for a round and was finally returned. It is not a random fabrication.
Xiao Hong heard that they were worried about how to repay the gift: "They gave it to us to thank us for saving people. Even if we want to return the gift, it would be suitable to get some dried loach, dried bamboo shoots, dried fish or eels and shrimps."
She was originally in Shantou Village, where there were few bamboos and dried bamboo shoots were rarely seen.
After arriving here, I realized that there were more than ten kilograms of dried bamboo shoots in the house.
But, people nowadays think that burning bamboo shoots consumes oil, and eating bamboo shoots scrapes oil, and they are not willing to eat dried bamboo shoots.
Personally, she doesn't like dealing with Liu Hui.
But if the silly sister really wants to date Xu Xinning, she can't do it without dealing with her.
Xiao Fang also echoed: "That's right, we can't compete with others, so we can just give something suitable and do our best."
Although she likes Xu Xinning and knows that his family background is better than hers, she doesn't want to pretend to be fat just for the sake of face.
Zhao Laosi is now willing to listen to their opinions and feels that what they say makes sense. Even if he buys some dried longans and lychees, others may not be interested in them.
It's better to give some home-made ones, it's clean, affordable, and tastes good.
When Xiao Hong heard what her sister said, she didn't turn her elbows outward, and she felt happy: "Even drying loaches, small fish, and bamboo shoots takes a lot of effort. We call it a light on etiquette but a heavy on affection."
Everyone couldn't help laughing after hearing this.
Wu Julan took out the big bag of braised food and asked in surprise: "Where did this come from?"
"I bought it!" Xiao Hong went to get the dishes and chopsticks: "In order not to be recognized by others, I even bought a hat and scarf before buying it."
This was a white lie on her part, otherwise her mother would nag her for spending money frivolously, and she would definitely tell them to knit scarves and hats for them.
But the woolen pants Xiao Hong wore were knitted by her. Even if she is a biological mother, she cannot say that the woolen pants are good-looking without her conscience.
Xiao Hong herself learned how to make braised meat from the Zhao family, but after she left the Zhao family, she deliberately added or subtracted seasonings when she had nothing to do.
Therefore, even if the braised meat produced by Zhao family tastes good, they don't think that other people's braised food can compare with their own.
After Zhao Laosi tasted them all, he breathed a sigh of relief: "I think the pig's water is not as good as ours, and the pig's head meat is almost the same, but we can't get this beef."
Wu Julan also nodded: "Let's repair the pig sewer. It costs a lot of flour, vinegar and white wine. It doesn't taste good when you eat it."
After saying that, he looked at Xiao Hong: "There are three pork stalls in the town now. Boss Liu said that they often have a lot of pork offal. Do you want us to continue selling pig offal?"
In the past, the three stores sold braised sesame water, which made Boss Liu and the others very happy. Now the Zhao family does not sell braised sesame water. The second brother Zhao is not as good at braised sesame water as the Xiao Hong family. In order to compete with the Su family for customers, they are desperately trying to lower the price.
Now only the Su family sells braised pig offal, and the pig offal from the three butcher stalls sometimes cannot be sold.
Xiao Hong’s family and Boss Liu’s family are getting along well now, and they are also considered big patrons of the Liu family’s meat stall. When the weather is hot, they often borrow other people’s big freezers?
Therefore, Boss Liu opened the door and they also wanted to continue doing this business.
"I want to sell fried chicken." Xiao Hong didn't hide it from them: "If our family wants to continue selling pigs, then our family will have to hire someone to help."
Wu Julan was reluctant to spend money on hiring people: "There are more people in the store in the morning. Now we are all idle, so we are busy here."
Xiao Hong almost wanted to roll her eyes: "Mom, you are going to give birth in a few months, and you will be in confinement. Who will take care of you then? Don't you feel sorry for me? Besides, fried chicken nuggets are troublesome, but you can definitely make money.
, I also want to invite two more people?"
"Then please invite one?" Zhao Laosi felt a little embarrassed after hearing this. He did not doubt that his wife did not feel sorry for him, but he wanted his wife to have a good confinement period, but he was afraid that he would not recognize the person clearly, so he hesitated: "It's just a human being.
It’s hard to find people who don’t know the basics, and they’re afraid that people will steal the craft and start another business.”
