Quick Wear: Passerby A's Daily Life of Eating Watermelons

After getting the certificate, I went home and started packing. It was very troublesome to go home these days. It was normal to take four or five days to go back and forth, and it would take one or two days to get to the train station. I brought them the meat that I had frozen for the winter so that they would not have to worry about it going bad in the winter. I also divided the pickled eggs into three portions and gave them some.

Yao Ling and the other two asked Jiang Yue to leave some money for her, but Jiang Yue said that they could just leave some for her and she could go buy things later. It was cheaper and more convenient to buy things here than in the city. Finally, the three of them left some money for her and told her to be careful when buying things. After packing up, they set out on their journey home.

After the three of them left, Jiang Yue was the only one left at home. Although there was one less person to chat with, she had a lot more freedom. She had delicious food and drinks every day and didn't want Yao Ling and the others to come back. After eating a portion of lamb chops, Jiang Yue processed the bones, made a cup of tea, drank it for a while, and then drove the chickens back to the chicken coop.

On the second day, I slept until eleven in the morning. I woke up late because I had watched TV series all night yesterday. After getting dressed, I went out to let the chickens out and feed them. I had to arrange a puppet to wait for Jiang Yue in case she couldn't get up. I fed the chickens and touched the chicken coop. There were only three eggs. But three eggs were good in such a cold day.

After entering the house, I put the eggs into the basket. There are less than 10 eggs left in the basket now. These are the eggs I saved up over the past few days. I made a fire, boiled water, and steamed a sweet potato and two eggs. Yesterday I had a greasy meal, so I planned to eat something light today. Just as I brought out breakfast, Xiaohu came in with a rabbit in his hand.

"Sister Xiaoyue, my dad went to check the traps this morning. Your trap caught a rabbit, so he asked me to bring it to you."

"Thanks, Xiaohu. I don't know how to handle this. Let your dad help me. Just give me half a rabbit. I'm the only one at home now. Your sister Ling and the others have gone home. I can't eat more."

"Okay, I'll talk to my dad."

Xiaohu was about to leave after he finished speaking, and Jiang Yue stuffed an egg into his hand. Xiaohu put it in his pocket without any hesitation and left. The relationship between the two families was quite good, so an egg was nothing.

After seeing Xiaohu off, Jiang Yue started to eat. She yawned after the meal and went out for a walk while the temperature was not so low at noon. When she came back, she had nothing to do so she hung up the window curtains. After installing them, she tested them and found that they could be pulled up and lowered normally. She also installed them for the boys so that they wouldn't have to go through the trouble when they come back.

After finishing this, I went to clean the chicken coop and stuffed some grass into it to keep it warm for a while so that the chickens would not freeze to death if it was too cold at night.

Since she was ready, Jiang Yue simply cleaned the house and the yard. After cleaning the yard, Hu Zi came in with the rabbit. After handing it to Jiang Yue, he said to her, "My mom told you to keep it for yourself. We don't need this half rabbit. My mom also told me to save some eggs. My sister is pregnant, and I want to get some eggs for her."

"Okay, I'll save the eggs and ask your mother to come get them in a few days."

After Xiaohu finished speaking, he went to play with his friends. Jiang Yue hung the rabbit and went back into the house. She took out a cup of milk tea and some snacks, then lay on the warm kang and started watching TV series. When the temperature dropped at night, she drove the chickens back to the roost. She ate a bunch of snacks but wasn't hungry, so she didn't cook.

Half a month after Yao Ling and her friends left, Jiang Yue received letters from them one after another. The contents of the letters were all about reporting their safety. Several of them said that they had prepared local specialties from their hometown for her, but the mailing fee was quite expensive, so it would be more economical for her to bring them with her when she set off back here. Yao Ling also said that she had bought her a set of clothes and asked her to look forward to it.

After reading the letter, Jiang Yue wrote back to them, writing about how comfortable she was at home. She also expressed her concern that it would be difficult to take a bus with so many things, and that they should remember to travel within their means and pay attention to their personal safety on the return trip, especially Yao Ling herself. It would be better for her to find a few educated youth to travel together when she returns.

The next day, Jiang Yue went to the commune. After sending the letter, he went to the supply and marketing cooperative. Jiang Yue had no tickets, so he could not buy anything and could only look around. He found that there were guns for sale. Yes, it seems that guns have not been banned yet in these years. However, Jiang Yue already had a Barrett in his space, and he didn't think much of this small gun.

While walking around, I met an old lady from the village. Jiang Yue had a good relationship with this old lady:

"Xiao Jiang, you are here at the commune too?"

"Yes, Aunt Wang, the three people I live with are going home to visit their relatives this year. I just finished replying to the letter and came here to take a look. What are you doing here?"

"I'm going to send something to the girl at home. Xiao Jiang, do you want to go home now? Let's go together."

"it is good."

It was not boring to walk and chat with Aunt Wang along the way. Jiang Yue listened to a lot of gossip passively. After returning to the village, the two separated. After returning home, she fed the chickens some water, washed her hands and started cooking. Today she planned to stew the whole thing and stick some pancakes on it. After the rice was cooked, Jiang Yue served it out. She had to say that the rice cooked on this wood stove was delicious. The rice cooked by Jiang Yue in the wizard tower was not as delicious as this one.

She was used to cooking for four people, so she made a lot more today. She would put it away and eat it tomorrow. After washing the pots and dishes, Jiang Yue was just about to take a break when it started snowing outside. She put the things in the yard into the ear room, lowered the curtains, closed the door, and lay down on the kang.

The next morning, after sweeping the snow in the yard, the team leader called everyone together to clear the snow in the village. There was no other way. If you didn't clean it up, people would not be able to walk after the second snow fell. At that time, the accumulated snow could not be cleared. Try walking, and you will find that there is no sound when you step on it. In such an uninhabited place, if a child walks in, he may not be able to see anyone.

After a busy day, she continued to be busy the next day and did not have any free time until the snow stopped. When Jiang Yue was cleaning the snow on her roof, Xiaohu and his mother came and saw Jiang Yue busy alone, so they hurried to help.

"Auntie, please don't move me, I can finish this job in no time."

"It's okay, two people hurry up."

It should be said that the three of them worked very quickly, because there was a little tiger helping to sweep the snow. After finishing, Jiang Yue led them into the house and made two cups of brown sugar water for them to drink in the cold weather. This stuff warms up the body very quickly. After drinking a cup of brown sugar water and chatting for a while, they got down to business.

"Xiao Jiang, how many eggs do you have?"

Jiang Yue took out the eggs and said, "Aunt, take a look. I estimate there are only about 50 or 60 eggs. I saved them for you when Xiaohu mentioned it last time. Unfortunately, it was a little late for Xiaohu to say it. Sister Ling and the others took the eggs they had saved when they went home."

"That's enough. I've traded some with others. Xiao Jiang, what do you think would be a good option?"

"Aunt, I'm fine with anything. Food, money, and meat are all good."

"I'll give it to you in exchange for pork. Xiaohu's father got a wild boar with someone some time ago."

"That's definitely fine!"

"Xiao Jiang, the aunt is gone, and we have to go to other people's homes to check on them. I'll have Xiao Hu bring you the pork later."

"Then please go slower, it's snowing and the road is slippery, be careful when you carry the eggs."
