Become a burden in a period novel

"Aunt, you're back. The meal will be ready soon. Go wash your hands." Qin Wangshu said with a smile.

"Okay, then I'll just have a ready-made meal today." Aunt Luo said with a smile.

"This is what I should do. Auntie cooks for me every day, so I should cook something to repay her." Qin Wangshu turned down the fire in the stove and used the remaining heat to simmer the rice.

"The team will slaughter the New Year pig this afternoon, and the meat will be distributed according to work points. Xiao Qin, do you want to watch the fun?" Aunt Luo knew that many people liked to watch this fun, but Qin Wangshu was a girl, so she didn't know if she was interested.

"Killing pigs?" Qin Wangshu recalled the painful howling of pigs when they were slaughtered in his memory and shook his head. "I'd better not go."

When Qin Wangshu was a child, he went back to his grandparents' house to celebrate the New Year. He had heard about pig slaughtering and even attended several pig slaughtering banquets, but he really had no interest in watching pig slaughtering.

After all, she still hasn't forgotten the painful cries of the slaughtered pigs.

"Why, have you seen it?" Aunt Luo asked with a smile.

Then she saw that the rice was almost ready and prepared to go to the cupboard to get the bowls and chopsticks.

"Well, I passed by the meat processing factory when I was in school." Qin Wangshu explained, "Auntie, drink some rice soup first. I added some sugar."

Qin Wangshu lifted the lid of the bowl covering the rice soup, revealing the milky white rice soup inside.

"You added sugar, you are such a ..." Aunt Luo didn't continue. After all, Qin Wangshu really needed to eat more good food. She has always done this. Now the child makes it himself. He adds sugar because he likes it and also wants to drink some for himself.

Aunt Luo scooped half a bowl of rice soup with a spoon. Seeing Aunt Luo scooping the rice soup, Qin Wangshu also served himself a bowl.

Took a sip, fragrant and sweet!

Qin Wangshu has always liked drinking rice soup, but his family has always used an electric rice cooker to cook food. Whenever he wants to drink rice soup, he has to go back to his grandparents' house in the countryside and drink it when they cook rice on a clay stove.

Because she loves to drink rice soup, every time she goes back, her grandparents will make it for her, using firewood and an iron pot to cook rice, adding more water, and when the water boils, pour out the excess water from the rice to make rice soup, and then continue cooking.

The fragrant rice soup was served with a little bit of sugar. She thought it tasted better than milk tea!

"But you still have to go to distribute the meat. Even though you may not get a lot, it should be enough for one meal." Qin Wangshu's meat should be divided together with his own. There are only two of them, so they probably won't get much, but it should still be enough for two meals.

"Then save it for New Year's Eve. I'll go to the commune again tomorrow to see if I can buy anything." Qin Wangshu wanted to take this opportunity to move the apples and oranges in her space.

This batch of fruits sold very well in the black market. Or rather, half of them were already ordered as soon as they came back, and the remaining half was gone as soon as Meng Ge leaked the news.

"Jianzi, go give money to Qin Zhiqing tomorrow, and ask her if she has any fruits left." With the help of fruits, Mengge established a relationship that he had never had before.

He didn't care where Qin Wangshu got these fruits, but Qin Wangshu had no choice but to supply him.

Mengge had someone follow Qin Wangshu, but they didn't find her source of goods at all. However, they also found that Qin Wangshu was very cautious and had no contact with anyone else in the entire black market except him.

Meng Ge asked Jianzi to contact Qin Wangshu. He knew that the only people who supplied goods to them were him and Jianzi.

"Okay! Brother Meng, Qin Zhiqing said he wants some meat for the New Year."

"Is she still short of meat?" Mengge thought of the fat chickens and baskets of eggs.

"I guess there's a shortage of pork. Chickens are easy to raise, but pigs are not." Jianzi expressed his guess.

"That's right. Then don't just send the meat. Go to the warehouse and find some other things to take over." Qin Zhiqing is their big customer and she has a lot of good things. Since she trusts them, they can be more generous.

"Okay." Jianzi responded immediately.

Qin Wangshu didn't expect that when he saw Jianzi again, he would bring him so many things, not only pork, but also some fine grains, white sugar, and even White Rabbit milk candy.

"Why do you bring so many things?" Qin Wangshu did not refuse. Since Jianzi gave them to him, he probably wouldn't take them back.

"It's the New Year soon, so this is a New Year gift to you, Qin Zhiqing." Jianzi apologized with a smile.

"And this, this is the money I exchanged this time."

Qin Wangshu looked at the thin money in the envelope, and she knew that Mengge should have exchanged it for big unity notes for her, which was ten yuan.

Qin Wangshu took it and said, "Tell me, you didn't come here just to give money this time."

"Nothing can be hidden from Qin Zhiqing. Brother Meng wants to ask you if you have any more fruits." Jianzi knew that fruits sell well in winter. He also knew that some people in the county town were rich.

So he withheld some fruits in advance, but he didn't expect that all the fruits would be sold out as soon as the news of the fruits got out.

Those people didn't even ask the price, they just bought it.

"Fruits? Yes, there are..."

"That's good, Qin Zhiqing, the price can be negotiated." Jianzi said immediately.

"It's not about the price. Forget it. Come back in the evening." It's not about the price. She just doesn't want to go out again at night.

Not to mention the cold weather, she didn't want to go out at night anymore after she met the male lead last time. What should she do if she met someone else again?

Last time it was because she and the male protagonist both had secrets, so they would not tell this matter, not to mention that she also provided the male protagonist with medicine.

What if she ran into someone else, how could she cover it up?

"Okay, okay! I'll drive over here tonight." Jianzi agreed immediately.

"This is the last batch. The next delivery will be at the end of the first month of the year." There was nothing to do in the first month of the year, so she wanted to have a good rest and also organize the things in the space at this time.

She planted a lot of vegetables in her space. Besides eating them herself, many of them were fed to the poultry in the space.

She actually wanted to raise a few pigs or sheep, so that she could use up more vegetables in the space, but piglets and lambs were hard to come by. She couldn't ask Mengge to get them for her, because that would make them even more involved.

"Okay! How much goods are there this time?" Jianzi asked excitedly.

"Do you have a truck? I don't think the donkey cart can pull it." Qin Wangshu asked tentatively.

Mengge is one of the more capable people in the county's black market, so she wants to test how capable he is.

If he had a truck, Qin Wangshu could do more things and earn more money.
