Chapter 298: Taking advantage of the slope to get off the donkey(2/2)
When Hui Lihua heard Xu Qing said, she nodded, and at the same time, she showed her expression on her face. It seemed that I was smart.
However, Xu Qing did not open his mouth to praise. In front of his daughter -in -law, he boasted another woman, not his own family, and it was easy to cause unnecessary trouble.
Xu Qing will not do that.
In case Hui Lihua leaves, her daughter -in -law is awkward with herself, and the account is settled after the autumn, then it is sad.
At more than three o'clock in the afternoon, Xu Qing and the second brother sent Hui Lihua to leave.
And Ma Jinghong was sitting in confinement. The weather was too cold to send it to each other. I wanted to keep this sisters who had been seen for a long time and left at night, but when I thought of Huilihua, she was also married. If she had her own life, she did not dare to keep it.
.
Hui Lihua couldn't stay again at Xu Qing's house, so I couldn't wait for the afternoon to get off work in the afternoon, see the little girl.
In Hutong, Hui Lihua also said: "Xu Qing, when your son is over the full moon, your sister must be there?"
"Well, of course, my son is full of moon, my sister can be less."
Hui Lihua laughed with a white face: "That's good, I haven't seen your sister this time, I must have a look next time!"
Xu Qing laughed without talking, and Xu Aiguo on the side did not speak.
Xu Aiguo is not familiar with Hui Lihua, and naturally nothing to say.
After sending away Huilihua, Xu Qing returned to the courtyard quickly with patriotism.
In the middle court, Xu Qing saw that an uncle Yi Zhonghai was making tofu with a aunt, so he walked over.
"One uncle, you make tofu again with an aunt this year."
Seeing that it was Xu Qing, Yi Zhonghai stopped what he was doing and said:
"There is nothing to do before the Chinese New Year, so you and I will make some for ourselves and save money on buying."
The eldest mother smiled and said: "The tofu I bought is not as delicious as the tofu made by myself."
Xu Qing smiled and said: "That's true, of course the best food is made by yourself."
In fact, Xu Qing knew that Yi Zhonghai and his wife were reluctant to spend money to buy tofu.
Although the price of a pound of tofu is not expensive, it is still a little more expensive than making it yourself.
In addition, the two of them have no children, and retirement will be a problem in the future. Yi Zhonghai is an eighth-level bench worker. Although his monthly salary is quite high, he saves almost all the money he earns and will not spend it easily for fear of not having it in the future.
If people support them, they should make preparations in advance.
But Xu Qing knows that they really want Shazhu to help them take care of themselves in old age.
Silly Zhu, who had been helping the first man in the middle courtyard in the afternoon, also stopped what he was doing, reached out and took out the economy cigarettes he was carrying, handed one to the first man Yi Zhonghai, and then handed it to Xu Qing.
He took one, and then teased Aiguo for a while. When Aiguo waved his hand away, he held it in the corner of his mouth with a smile and said to Xu Qing:
"Qingzi, your family won't make tofu this year?"
"I can do it, but I have to do it tomorrow. After five o'clock, I will ride to pick Xiaoya up from get off work and buy soybeans."
"Is it too late to buy soybeans today?" Silly Zhu smoked the flue.
The eldest mother also said: "I am already twenty-seven, and I am afraid that the soybeans in the state-owned stores have been bought up long ago."
Yi Zhonghai sucked his cigarette and shook his head, disagreeing with the aunt's opinion, "What do you know? If Xu Qing said to buy it today, then he can definitely buy it. The little girl works in a state-owned store. If others can buy it, can Xu Qing buy it?"
The aunt suddenly realized that this was the truth.
The little girl is considered an insider of the state-owned store. How can Xu Qing’s family have something that cannot be bought, unless it is not available in the state-owned store?
Silly Zhu chuckled and said: "That's right!"
While everyone was talking, Mrs. Jia Zhang came over with a stick, her grandfather and grandson each holding a large enamel basin of soaked soybeans.
Obviously I am also preparing to make tofu.
Over the years, there is almost no house in the courtyard that does not make tofu in winter. Whether it is in the front yard, middle yard or backyard, every household does it.
These days, the domestic material shortage situation has not improved significantly.
Although tofu can be bought in state-owned stores, supply and marketing cooperatives and other public places, there are many people in Sijiu City, so it is not always possible to buy it.
If it's sold out, you can't buy it if you can't buy it.
As for the Xu Qing family, if they want it, the little girl said hello in advance and will definitely save some.
However, Xu Qing, like the crowds of the courtyard this year, chose to make tofu by himself, so you do n’t consider buying tofu.
Just at five in the afternoon, Xu Qing wrapped on a scarf, put on wool gloves, and said to his daughter -in -law, "Static red, I went to pick Xiaoya."
"Well, slower on the road."
"OK."
Xu Qing walked out of the house, breathed a sigh of relief, pushed the bicycle at the door of the house, went out of the courtyard, across the bicycle beam in the hutong, sat on the black car seat, kicked the pedal, and when he got out of the alley, he would
Fast towards state -owned stores.
