Chapter 84 Jealousy

Author: cool beauty

Of course, what Yan Hong brought was also delicious. In the end, everyone finished it, including the vegetable buns and mashed potatoes that they disliked at first.

Although they all thought the taste was a bit strange, they couldn't bear to waste it when they thought it would cost a few dollars.

In addition, there are various kinds of braised food, which can be said to be very rich due to a combination of circumstances.

Xiao Hong calculated the cost and took into account the actual situation in the town. In the end, she didn't dare to open her mouth and settled on three yuan and eighty one pound of fried chicken.

The main reason is that good quality pork belly now only costs 71 pounds per piece, and a pound of fried chicken can buy more than two pounds of pork belly.

If it were more expensive, she would worry that too few people would be willing to buy it.

Wu Julan took a deep breath. She knew that the chicken only cost one pound a pound when she bought it, but now her daughter almost tripled the amount with just one mouthful.

However, in front of outsiders, she didn't say much. Instead, she was afraid that they would think her daughter's words were too expensive and she didn't have enough confidence to explain: "They all need to be deep-fried, which wastes oil."

But they really didn't think it was expensive.

Yan Hong agreed: "The price is really not expensive."

The ones he bought only totaled about three kilograms, almost ninety yuan, and the price she paid was very reasonable now.

This is because he is not short of money in the first place, and prices in the provincial capital are more expensive than in the town, so he is indifferent to the price of fried chicken and thinks it is normal.

Xu Xinning also echoed: "That's right, our price is only a fraction of KFC. I think the price can be higher."

He never pays attention to prices. Every year, his grandparents and parents give him a red envelope worth one hundred yuan each.

How crazy is this? You know, many workers earn less than 100 yuan a month?

In other words, only those master craftsmen can earn a salary of more than one hundred, and there will be some skilled workers who can earn a high salary of two to three hundred.

The red envelopes he received during the Chinese New Year are almost worth half a year's salary for his hard work.

Xiao Hong gave him a roll of her eyes: "You just don't touch Yang Chun Shui. It's expensive. How many people in our town can afford it?"

Although she was telling the truth, when Xiao Fang saw him blinking at her with charming deer eyes and looking at her aggrievedly, she still retorted gently: "It's not that poor. At least those of us who open a shop on the street, as long as the food tastes good,

Most of them are willing to buy it.”

A smile instantly bloomed on Xu Xinning's face.

Xiao Hong felt that she was forced to swallow dog food, so she didn't even bother to say anything to her, so she just gave her a blank look.

Yan Hong also pulled his lower lip uncontrollably. He was almost jealous of his cousin. He was six years younger than him and had already found a girlfriend. He was twenty-five after the Chinese New Year and his girlfriend was still missing?

He couldn't help but glance at Xiao Hong, and quickly looked away. She was much younger than him, and they were not suitable for each other.

At this moment, he felt a little regretful why he couldn't have been born two years later?

His parents are beginning to urge him to find a partner, thinking that he should get married by the end of next year or the year after.

But marriage is not a business. You can’t get married when you should get married, but you should like each other before you tie the knot.

Yan Hong received the call last night, so he changed shifts with his colleagues, and came over with his parents this morning to visit his sick grandfather.

Because her mother said that fainting due to high blood pressure is dangerous, she wouldn’t worry if she didn’t come back.

However, his parents haven't taken vacation yet and will go back in the afternoon.

Because of his shift change, he could take three days off, but he had to go to work during the Chinese New Year.

Yan Hong came here with his cousin after visiting his grandfather before.

But he couldn't stay out for too long. After making an agreement with them to go to the city tomorrow, the brothers went back first.

Xiao Hong also wrote down the various seasonings she wanted to buy tomorrow, and worked with Xiao Fang to enlarge the proportions of the various seasonings she had written down.

Xiao Fang also expressed her opinion: "I think the chicken is a bit bland."

"Really?" Xiao Hong hesitated: "What if someone eats it lightly?"

Anyway, she didn't feel weak at all.

Xiao Fang asked her parents and sister seriously. In the end, they all thought that the fried chicken was delicious, but if the chicken was saltier, it would be more flavorful.

"Then add half a spoonful of salt for every ten pounds of chicken." Xiao Hong patted the table: "I remembered, we can also prepare some chili powder and tomato sauce."

"This way you can add a little more according to everyone's different tastes, don't you think?"

Every summer, whether it is tomato scrambled eggs, tomato and egg soup, or tomatoes mixed with sugar, it is an appetizer on the dinner table.

But except for Xiao Hong, this was the first time for everyone to eat ketchup.

Wu Julan asked in confusion: "Where can we find tomatoes in this winter? Besides, we don't know how to make this sauce?"

"Ketchup is a seasoning like soy sauce," Xiao Hong pondered: "We haven't seen any on sale here. We'll go to the city department store tomorrow to look for it. If we can't find it, we can ask Yan Hong to buy it from the province.

I bought it and sent it over."

Houzhai Town is actually not very far from Province Z, but now the traffic is slow. To go to the provincial capital, they have to go to the city to take a bus, and they have to wait for the bus, which is a waste of time.

And the roads now are not very good. There is an asphalt road, a dirt road, a cement road, and there are potholes in the middle. Fish can be raised on rainy days.

However, she vaguely remembered that in a year or two, road construction would begin, and the distance from Houzhai Town to Province Z would be much shorter.

It will only be about 180 kilometers by then. Now that there are fewer cars on the road, it is easier to drive. It only takes about two and a half hours by car.

Zhao Laosi laughed and praised after hearing this: "After all, if you study well, you know more than us. You must study hard in the future, only then can you be successful."

Xiao Hong smiled a little reluctantly: If her stepfather praised her so much, what should she say if the report card was a dazzling red?

Xiao Fang laughed along with her: "Dad, you are right."

Yanyan raised her head and held her chest high, with a proud look on her face: "I will also study hard. If I study well, I will have a lot of delicious food. My eldest sister will also buy me new clothes."

Anyway, she saw her friend and classmate next door wearing new clothes today, and she was not envious at all, because when she gets her report card tomorrow, her eldest sister will also buy herself new clothes.

When Wu Julan heard this, she urged her husband to go to the bank: "Go and take out the money quickly, so that you can return it to them quietly tomorrow."

He did not forget to tell his two daughters: "They have really helped us a lot. When you go to the city tomorrow, remember to buy some nice clothes for their brothers?"

If it weren't for the fact that the money was their pocket money and they didn't want their parents to know about it, she would definitely have sent the money to her door and thanked them properly.

Zhao Laosi responded and went upstairs to get his bankbook. When he came downstairs, he changed into an old white washed military coat. Seeing his three daughters looking at him, he said a little embarrassedly: "Previously

I heard from Boss Wu that their store was robbed, so I was afraid of being noticed, so I wore old clothes so that I wouldn’t attract attention.”
