Chapter 37 The best sister-in-law in the 1980s (37)

In fact, it was not in vain.

Before leaving, she bought several kinds of small seafood, both dry and pickled.

In addition to clearing out the Li family's inventory, they also asked other families in Houhai Village to buy a lot.

Like kelp and seaweed, they are very light when dried. Even Xu Yin can easily carry a thick pile in her hand.

The second elder of the Li family is worried that she bought too much and would not be able to finish it later and waste it.

Xu Yin explained that he would not eat all of it by himself, but planned to take more to Tongcheng to exchange for something else.

They said nothing more and gave her as much as she wanted.

How can a bicycle carry so many things?

The second father-in-law originally wanted his son to borrow a cart from the party secretary's house to take Xu Yin back.

Xu Yin hurriedly said no, and asked the Li family to borrow two large bamboo baskets and two small bamboo baskets. The bamboo baskets were tied together with thick hemp ropes and placed on the back seat. The bamboo basket trailer faucets contained two jars of mud snails.

Thank you, uncle and aunt, Im going back first. Ill come see you when I get back from Tongcheng.

After coming out of Houhai Village, while there was no one around, she put the two large bamboo baskets into the system warehouse, put the mud snail jars in the bamboo baskets into it, exchanged two packages of dried kelp and dried shrimps, and then came out with a ringing sound. We rode to Da'ao Village.

Last night I took a look at the geographical environment of Tongcheng. It is basically dominated by plains. There is also a large lake on the outskirts. The nearby villagers make a living by raising lake sheep and lake ducks.

Even though there are mountains on all sides, they are still small hills for growing tea, so she plans to go to Da'ao Village to buy some mountain products, sell them and return them in exchange for some Tongcheng Hu mutton, Hu duck meat and tea.

It doesnt matter if you cant sell it, just leave it to your brother and sister-in-law to add another dish.

Grandma Geng was very happy to see her coming, and she blamed her for coming as soon as she came without bringing any paper bags.

Xu Yin said it was some seafood, and when the weather was hot, she could make a soup and drink it to go with the meal. She also said that she wanted to visit her brother and sister-in-law in Tongcheng in two days, and wanted to collect some mountain products to take with her.

Without saying a word, Grandma Geng took out the wild goods she had at home, picked out the good ones and stuffed them into the bamboo basket she brought.

Xu Yin wanted to give money, but the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law refused.

You can just take these from our house. If you dont have enough, Ill go and ask elsewhere.

Li Axiang insisted not to take any money, so Xu Yin had no choice but to give up. She thought about going back and seeing if she could get some more Hu sheep and Hu ducks to give to her grandma and her family to try.

You stay at home and chat with grandma for a while, and Ill go and ask you what other houses have. Li Axiang picked up her apron and asked, Do you just want mushrooms, dried bamboo shoots, or something else?

I want them all. Anyway, we charge so much money in total. Xu Yin gave her aunt five Unity cards.

Okay, Ive got it figured out.

Li Axiang moved very quickly. Before Xu Yin could finish chatting with her grandmother, she came back dragging two big bags.

A cloth bag contains dried bamboo shoots, of which there are two varieties. One is large hairy bamboo shoots that are dried into slices, and the other is dried stalagmites that are long and thin and dried whole. The stewed meat with dried bamboo shoots is the most fragrant, and the soup with dried stalagmites is the best.

Thirty catties of dried bamboo shoots and fifty catties of small stalagmites. They were all recently dried, so you can rest assured of their freshness. Is it enough? Ill ask down below if its not enough.

Li Axiang just asked people who live on the mountainside like hers. There are many other families down the mountainside.

Enough is enough.

The other bag was filled with fungi, mostly mushrooms and fungus. There are only a few taels of red mushrooms and bamboo fungus, but the quality is very good. These are packed individually.

The rest are miscellaneous bacteria, with many types and small quantities, and they were not separated specially when drying. But the mixed mushrooms fried in meat or soup are especially delicious.

In addition to these, her uncle who had just come down from the mountain also gave her a basket of ripe raspberries, which were bright red and tasted sweet and refreshing.

With the help of her uncle, Xu Yin carried two large bags of mountain treasures down the mountain and put them on the back seat of her bicycle.

Thanks to the electric donkey, if this was a traditional bicycle, she probably wouldn't be able to push it.

On the way home, I still threw two big bags of mountain goods into the system warehouse when no one was around, leaving only two baskets of dried seafood and fresh raspberries outside.

When she got home, Xus mother had already started making lunch. Seeing her coming back with two baskets of dry goods with a strong fishy smell, she pinched her nose with a look of disgust:

What delicious food is there! Isnt it enough for you to take these to Tongcheng? You also spend money to buy them. If you dont say you are a waste of money for a few days, you will feel itchy again..."

Xu Yin took it out and showed it to her: "They are all freshly dried recently. Are they big? I specially picked them out for you and my dad to eat. When the weather gets hot, make a dried radish and clam soup, or shrimp and seaweed soup. , Its so fresh! Its also appetizing to eat.

Xus mother was not surprised: Can there be delicious meat?

Comrade Geng Jinhua, you have violated the law!

Are the two comparable?

Speaking of the meal, at noon, Xu's mother cooked a rice dumplings with dried radish soup, and frying a puppet with pepper.

Dont mention it, its just as my daughter said, its both an appetizer and a meal.

The next day, Xu Yin went to the morning market and bought some spareribs.

Xu's mother was disgusted at first: "What's so delicious about the bones? If you want to eat, just cut some meat."

Xu Yin said: "This is delicious."

She made a pork rib soup with kelp and mixed it with hot and sour kelp shreds.

The fragrant but not greasy pork ribs and kelp soup and the appetizing and refreshing spicy and sour kelp shreds made Mr. Xus appetite whet his appetite.

From this point of view, its not that this food doesnt taste good, its that I havent eaten it before.

Gradually, Xus mother no longer disliked the seafood sent by her in-laws as much as before.

Three days later, Xu Yin got off the bus at Tongcheng Railway Station.

Xu Zhinian drove a jeep over to pick her up, but he was still busy with other things, so he sent her to the staff compound and then returned to the unit.

Sister-in-law Xu has been busy for several days, cleaning the room and washing the mats. She got up early today and bought some meat, fried meatballs, omelette dumplings, and made duck soup with dried bamboo shoots.

As soon as Xu Yin arrived, she first gave her a bowl of duck soup.

Ill cook you three fresh noodles later.

Thank you, sister-in-law.

"Thank you! If you like to eat, I will cook it for you every day. It is more convenient to buy meat here than us, and the price is reasonable. I have been looking forward to your coming." Sister-in-law Xu said with a smile.

Since coming to Tongcheng, the man has given her his salary and allowances for safekeeping. Except for sending fifty yuan to his hometown every month, she has taken care of the rest for the food and clothing of the family of four.

There is not much money, but the feeling of holding financial power is not that good.

In addition, she can make clothes, and occasionally helps other employees' families in the building make some clothes to supplement their pocket money, so her life is quite enjoyable.

Speaking of which, this is all thanks to my sister-in-law. Whether it is the successful birth of the second child or making money by making clothes, it all depends on my sister-in-law.

Especially when she gave birth to her second baby, the doctors and nurses told her that given her pregnancy condition at the time, there was a risk of dystocia during a normal delivery.

If you had not been admitted to the hospital in advance and decided to have a caesarean section immediately, you would definitely have found a midwife at home.

Its okay if the birth goes well, but if it doesnt go well, the midwife cant do anything. If the baby is sent to the hospital in the middle of the birth, if the baby is not fully protected, it will lead to dystocia, and maybe two lives will be lost.

Also, it was only because of her sister-in-law that she could bring her two children to Tongcheng. Otherwise, her mother-in-law would never let her leave her hometown due to her character.

Thinking of this, Sister-in-law Xu felt more and more that her sister-in-law was the lucky star in her life, and she made up her mind to entertain her well.
