59 years after its opening, people are still in Nanluoguxiang.

"Cauldron, cauldron, popsicles!"

Chen Li ran in happily, holding a small bowl with a half-melted popsicle and some cold water in it.

"Who gave it to you?" Chen Hao put down the hammer and prepared to take a bite, but Chen Li was on guard against him and ran to Chen Feng's side, which made Chen Xiaoer so angry that he wanted to spank his sister.

"Did Li Jie leave it for you?" Chen Feng thought quickly.

Chen Li nodded and said, "Well, Auntie said that if it wasn't sold, it was put in the bowl and melted!"

The supply and marketing cooperative did not have a refrigerator, so it relied on insulated boxes, cardboard, cloth, etc. to isolate the heat. They sold out in batches, and basically every afternoon if there were some leftovers that were not sold out, they were all this half-melted "waste."

"Big pot, you drink!"

"I don't want to drink it, you drink it yourself!" Chen Feng smiled and threw a piece of sugar into the bowl.

Chen Li immediately mixed the drink with the unmelted popsicle, and then took a big sip without waiting for her three brothers to speak.

"It's already this late, why don't you go back and cook?" Chen Hao raised his head and said, "Brother Zhuzi, don't you want to eat at our house?"

After these words were spoken, Chen Li and Fatty Wang looked at Sha Zhu as if he were guarding against a thief.

Sha Zhu looked at these three heartless guys speechlessly. It’s just one more bowl, so stingy!

Chen Feng asked: "How was your talk with Qin Jingru?"

Sha Zhu sat down and said, "It's settled. I'll provide the fabric and leather, and she'll provide the labor. We'll sew a pair of shoes for my son, Qiu Ye, Yu Shui, my father-in-law and mother-in-law, and old man Guan."

Judging from the order in which he spoke, this guy has a clear idea of ​​the importance of his family.

It’s just a pity for Lao Guan that he is ranked so far behind!

Chen Feng had a strange look on his face. How should he evaluate a jerk like Sha Zhu?

Relieved or scolded?

Chen Li drank the sweet water, and when she finished, she blinked and looked at Sha Zhu and said, "Zhu Ziguo, I want new shoes too!"

Sha Zhu would not fall for her trick. How could the little girl be short of shoes? Every time she got new shoes, new clothes, and new toys, she would show them off in front of him several times.

Even imported foreign leather shoes (plastic shoes) are available!

"You have too many shoes. Wait until you grow up!"

Chen Li pouted, feeling a little depressed. Sha Zhu had become stingy and was no longer easy to deceive!

Sha Zhu asked Chen Feng: "I want to prepare a woolen cotton jacket for my son. According to the date, he will be born in October. Do you have time to go to the mountain? Catch a goat for me. I will buy it for ten yuan."

Chen Hao, Fatty Wang, and Chen Li stood up almost at the same time, very excited.

"Big Brother/Big Pot!"

An adult sheepskin coat costs about 30 yuan, but for a baby during the winter, it is only one-fifth of the adult's, so ten yuan is a reasonable price.

After all, there is a lot of mutton, but not many sheepskin coats, and the border troops are still short of military coats!

"Okay, you can go directly to my grandma. I think there should be some left at my house!" Chen Feng said casually.

The three little money-grubbers were depressed at the same time.

"Okay, let's go!"

Chen Li saw him out.

"Zhu Zi, wait!"

The old man was listening to the radio with Zhou Jing in the yard. He called Sha Zhu and said, "Dongmei's father brought some local specialties from the Northeast. Take some back with you."

"Ok!"

Sha Zhu walked into the kitchen. Hao Dongmei originally wanted to go back to the guesthouse, but Zhou Qing held her hand and refused to let go. He also took her to the kitchen to help and said he would teach her how to cook Tan family dishes.

"Silly Zhu, take this bag back."

The old lady was ready.

Sha Zhu mentioned the sheepskin coat again.

The old lady smiled and said, "Wait a few days. I am making winter clothes for the children. When they are finished, I will leave two for your family."

"That's so embarrassing!" Sha Zhu said with a little secret joy.

The old lady smiled and said, "Don't be embarrassed. When Qiuye is born, I will ask her to tutor Lili and Haozi!"

Chen Li, who was originally preparing to get a new sheepskin coat, suddenly felt a little overwhelmed!

Not only do I have to take classes at school, but I also have to take extra classes when I get home?

Being a kid is so hard!

"Cauldron!"

Chen Li held her mouth and went to her eldest brother for help with tears in her eyes. Chen Hao and Fatty Wang also looked miserable. Extra classes were simply the biggest enemy of their children's lives!

"Don't cry. Suffer a little now, and you will enjoy more happiness in the future!"

Chen Feng held the little girl in his arms and said seriously, "Do you want to play now and not be able to afford meat in the future, or do you want to study more now and eat meat every day in the future?"

Chen Li stared at him with wide eyes, half-believing and half-doubting, "Can you eat meat just by studying?"

"Of course!"

Chen Feng said confidently: "College students can become cadres as soon as they graduate, earning dozens of yuan a month and getting all kinds of meat, which is better than our father!"

Chen Li shook her head and said, "Dad can't be powerful at all. He even has to listen to Mom!"

Chen Hao and Fatty Wang almost laughed out loud.

In the Chen family, Chen Jianjun did not show the authority of the head of the family in front of the children.

There is no other way. There are an old man and an old lady above him, a daughter-in-law in the middle, and a capable eldest son below him. He also has to take care of the widows and children of some of his comrades.

I can't stand up straight!

"Well, anyway, study hard and get into college. When you graduate, you will be a cadre and everyone will listen to you. You don't have to do anything but sit in the office and eat meat!"

Chen Li's little head was a little fooled, and she nodded unconsciously.

The beautiful future scene that Chen Feng described to her was exactly in line with her imagination!

"How long will it take me to study?"

"If you can get the first place, you won't have to work so hard!" Chen Feng continued to make big promises.

Chen Li ate with relish!

By the time Chen Feng had fixed his few springs in four rows, dinner was ready.

"Xiao Feng, send Dong Mei back!"

Chen Feng came out and asked, "Aren't you going to have dinner at our house?"

Before Hao Dongmei could say anything, Zhou Qing said, "Her parents are coming back from get off work too. They're eating at the guesthouse. I've prepared some food for her. You can take her back."

Only then did Chen Feng notice the food box on the dining table in the kitchen.

"Already done?"

"Okay, it's a bit heavy, you help carry it." Zhou Qing handed the lunch box to him.

Hao Dongmei stepped forward and said, "Auntie, let me do it!"

"Xiaofeng is a boy, of course he comes, he is very strong!" Zhou Qing said to his son with great love.

The old lady watched with a smile. Hao Dongmei didn't understand her daughter-in-law's little thoughts, but she naturally saw through them at a glance, but she didn't stop her!

The Chen family has a small population, so they must have many children!

"Sister Dongmei, let's go back early, so that Aunt Hao won't have to order food at the guesthouse."

Chen Feng carried the lunch box and took Hao Dongmei out. Chen Li wanted to follow, but was held back by Zhou Qing.

"What are you going to do?"

Chen Li said a little aggrievedly: "I want to play with the big pot!"

"Let's eat later, don't go out!"
