Daily life of female supporting actresses in the 1970s

Chapter 71 You Didn’t Give Me a Chance

Jiang Yanqiu broke one off and showed it to her, saying, "Look, is it right?"

"Look, it's true. Change it for me when the time comes." Xu Yan immediately placed an order.

Since he had no suggestions for exchanging anything, he agreed and said, "Okay."

Tian Cheng was a little disgusted but didn't say anything. However, Tian Mi said with great interest: "Next time you go to the mountains, ask me to come with you."

Jiang Yanqiu agreed immediately and said, "I'll call you during my break. We're not together during normal work. We both come from the fields."

Wang Haiyang just happened to arrive carrying a stove and a bucket with a piece of meat in it. He said, "Jiang Zhiqing, this is what you asked me to bring. I brought you a package from the post office. Lin Shaoyang is holding it in the back."

Wang Haiyang has been missing for four days. If you haven't read the novel, you know his situation.

Jiang Yanqiu even suspected that he had run away with her ginseng.

Jiang Yanqiu took it and said, "Thank you for your help."

Tian Cheng asked curiously, "Why did you buy an iron stove? Don't we have a kang and a fire wall?"

Wang Haiyang explained, "This house is drafty. More iron stoves will make it warmer."

Xu Yan said in surprise: "Our house has cracks, so it's even colder."

Lin Shaoyang came in with a pipe and a large package and said, "Your house has a mud and thatched roof, so it might be better. When we built the house, we thought about not letting mud fall off and forgot about this problem."

Those who have the means will add a wooden roof to their house, and they will see if they can make a wooden roof then.

Xu Yan didn't believe it at all, but she said, "Is that so? Then we'll go back first and not delay your work."

If there are still people who want to build a tiled house after this, she will have to write back to ask for a thick bed and quilt.

Xu Yan left, and the Tian sisters followed.

Lin Shaoyang helped her pack the iron stove. Wang Haiyang took out a cowhide bag from the package and said, "The other things are in the backyard. Take them to the county town for appraisal. The ginseng is seventy years old and they value it at around eight hundred yuan. I gave you four hundred yuan more and bought you two hundred yuan worth of things. This is the remaining one thousand yuan. Take it to the commune to deposit it when you have the chance. It's not safe to keep it on you."

"so much?"

She thought it was only worth a few hundred dollars.

Wang Haiyang said, "As the saying goes, eight ounces is a treasure. Two hundred and sixty-seven grams is quite good quality, but that's all I have. If I go to a big city, it will probably cost more."

"It's less than 260 grams and 6 taels, but it can be sold for so much." It's very valuable.

Wang Haiyang explained: "In ancient times, one catty was sixteen taels, and eight taels is half a catty today."

"Well, just give me 800, and the other 200 will be your hard work fee. If I take it to the recycling station myself, it will probably be 200 yuan."

Jiang Yanqiu took the money without hesitation and counted out the two hundred yuan. Wang Haiyang was a businessman and would never let himself suffer any loss.

Wang Haiyang accepted it without hesitation. He had no money at the moment, and her uncle's money belonged to him.

After collecting the money, he said, "There is indeed a letter for you at the post office. I brought it back to you. I'll show you what was in the package. The other supplies are in the backyard."

Jiang Yanqiu went to the backyard and saw the mountain of supplies, especially the 30-pound piece of meat, which made her eyes sparkle.

She didn't clean up and went back to the house and said, "Wang Zhiqing, Lin Zhiqing, I'm sorry for bothering you today. I'll treat you to dinner tonight so that they won't be your food."

Wang Haiyang refused and said, "Let's do it another day. Today you should process your pork first to prevent it from going bad."

"It's okay, it won't take long."

Not to mention thirty kilograms, she wouldn't be afraid even of three hundred kilograms.

Jiang Yanqiu first fried the braised pork and stewed it in a casserole on a small stove, then steamed the rice, fried elm yellow mushrooms, braised eggplant, and some Chinese cabbage.

To install the smoke pipe, you have to drill a hole in the wall and seal it up, otherwise the hole will be very cold in winter, and it takes a lot of time.

Lin Shaoyang and Wang Haiyang had just finished installing their pipes when Jiang Yanqiu's meal was almost ready.

Seeing that Jiang Yanqiu had prepared the meal, the two of them stayed to eat, mainly because the food tasted so delicious.

Jiang Yanqiu’s cooking skills are good and the taste is no worse than that of state-owned restaurants.

This is thanks to Jiang's father, Anhua, who did not have high expectations for his children, as long as they did not cause trouble and had a skill to support themselves.

He knew a chef who used to run a restaurant. After the public-private partnership, the restaurant was converted into a state-owned hotel, where the chef worked as the head chef.

After the classes were suspended, Jiang Anhua was afraid that the older Jiang Kaijie and Jiang Mingzhu would also join in the trouble, so he arranged for them to learn cooking.

Lu Yunxia arranged for Jiang Mingzhu to take the original owner there to learn, so that he could help Jiang Mingzhu in the future.

Unexpectedly, Jiang Mingzhu and the others learned to cook home-cooked meals. The original owner had a talent for cooking and was accepted as an apprentice by the chef.

It’s a pity that the original owner was too young at that time and only studied for two years.

Many of the chef's former colleagues were criticized and had their homes searched. The chef, always worried, persevered for two years, but when he could no longer hold on, he fled.

I don’t even know where the whole family went!

This time, since the person was gone, they didn't need to find an excuse and just raided his house, and the house became the property of the state.

The original owner couldn’t cook famous dishes, but he was quite good at making home-cooked dishes.

Wang Haiyang has been in the car for the past few days and hasn't had a proper meal.

Lin Shaoyang was impressed by Gu Qingqing and his own cooking skills. When compared with their cooking skills, the food was just edible at best.

I don’t know why Gu Qingqing is so lucky. They went hunting but couldn’t catch her.

The other party always encountered a rabbit that had been knocked unconscious in the back mountain, a pheasant whose neck was bitten by a weasel, and a stupid roe deer caught in a vine...

When I went to the commune, I found that all they sold was wild boar meat.

Pheasants, rabbits, and roe deer are fine, but the wild boar has a fishy smell. Even after adding a lot of spices, the smell still remains. Now the three of them are afraid to eat wild boar meat.

Now, smelling the fragrant dishes cooked by Jiang Yanqiu, Lin Shaoyang was reluctant to leave.

After the meal, Lin Shaoyang didn’t know if it was an illusion, but he felt that Jiang Yanqiu’s stir-fried cabbage tasted better than anyone else’s, not to mention her braised pork.

After they had each eaten a bowl of rice, Wang Haiyang asked, "Did Jiang Zhiqing learn this skill?"

Jiang Yanqiu spoke frankly: "I studied for two years when classes were suspended."

Lin Shaoyang blurted out: "Why didn't you say it at the beginning?"

If I had known this would happen, I wouldn’t have come out to live with Gu Qingqing.

The main reason he came out was that Lin Xiaomei and Zhao Lanlan’s cooking was not to his taste. One was too strong and the other was too light. In addition, Lin Xiaomei’s constant trouble-making made him tired.

I thought Qiao Lei was a good cook, but I didn't expect that after Qiao Lei's house was built and they moved out, Qiao Lei refused to live with them.

They thought it was not easy for Qiao Lei to cook for them, and they worked hard to help her build a house.

Gu Qingqing's cooking skills are similar to his, who are self-taught.

Gu Qingshi knew nothing, but if you asked him to go hunting in the mountains, fishing in the river, or farming, he would learn it in no time.

If you ask him to learn how to cook, he will be worse than a five-year-old child.

Jiang Yanqiu said speechlessly: "You didn't even give me a chance to speak."

When they formed their own team, the original owner came out alone, so they arranged for him to wash the dishes.

The original owner said that he would do it alone for one day, and the two people in the team would do it for two days.

Everyone said that cooking was too slow for one person and refused to do it alone, requiring two people to do it together. The original owner was not good at talking and couldn't win the argument, so he agreed to wash the dishes.

Lin Shaoyang was embarrassed.
