Reborn in 1963: I Hunted and Stockpiled Meat During a Famine

Chapter 28: One person took a bag and ran.

Min fell into a sweet sleep.

She placed her hand directly on Qin Qiming's waist, her breath gently blowing on his face.

The faint fragrance almost made Qin Qiming lose control of himself.

Qin Qiming...

He held this beautiful, soft-skinned woman until four in the morning before quietly getting up and joining the others to descend the mountain.

When Min got up, she found that Liu Xiuqin was already steaming buns in the kitchen.

She was worried that Liu Xiuqin would have a negative opinion of her because she went to Qin Qiming's room.

"Auntie, did you come to my room to call me?"

While tending the fire, Liu Xiuqin said, "No, the food isn't ready yet. Why would I call you?"

Min breathed a sigh of relief; this future mother-in-law is really nice.

She neither went to her son's room nor peeked into **Min's room.

Simple in mind.

Min felt relieved. Although she was willing to sleep with Qin Qiming, he didn't touch her, which made her feel uneasy about her attraction to him.

In addition, she overheard some gossip when she went to the village to buy vegetables the day before yesterday.

It is said that there is a girl in the village who has always liked Qin Qiming.

The girl has gone to her maternal grandmother's house and has reportedly been there for several months without returning.

Several gossipy women in the village also mentioned the girl's name: Liu Dacui.

Min finished her daily routine of brushing her teeth and washing her face at the sink in the corner of the kitchen.

After finishing, I went into the side room of the living room, which was filled with newly purchased items, as well as various dried goods, rice, and flour.

While sorting through the things Qin Qiming had bought a couple of days ago, they unexpectedly discovered several boxes of clam cream.

What a big surprise!

**Quickly tear open the package**, gently cut a small opening with scissors, squeeze out an appropriate amount of clam cream, and apply it to the back of your hand.

Then, apply it while looking in the mirror.

After carefully placing the remaining clam frost in the cabinet, she took out the hat and other items.

Soon, the rest of the family also got up.

As soon as the children heard that there were fragrant skincare products to use, they obediently washed their faces and lined up to have **Mi** apply them for them.

Min patiently taught them how to properly wipe their faces.

The children studied very diligently.

After the meal, Min and Liu Xiuqin went to buy farm-fresh vegetables from several aunts they were on good terms with.

At that time, most farmers had some vegetables to sell.

Although the quantity is small, there is indeed stock available.

Upon seeing Ma Lianhe from the village, Min immediately called out, "Sister Xiaohe."

Ma Lianhe had just finished washing the children's clothes when she heard the call and immediately responded with a smile: "Oh, little sister."

"Sis, do you have any vegetables you can sell me?"

Min knew that even if she had a lot of meat stored at home, she still had to eat it sparingly.

Only by combining meat and vegetables can we eat healthily.

"Yes, there's plenty. Come with me, I'll go talk to my mother-in-law and ask her to give you some."

"to make!"

"By the way, have you brought up your marriage with Qiming yet?"

"I did mention it. Qiming said he'll go see the village chief when he gets back today, and plans to try getting the marriage certificate first."

“It’s your responsibility to take care of the housework after marriage. Now that you’re living together before you’re married, it will be troublesome once Liu Dacui comes back.”

Min nodded: "I know."

“Let me tell you, Liu Dacui and Qin Qiming grew up together. She has always insisted on marrying Qin Qiming and is devoted to him. I’m helping you because Liu Dacui went too far and insulted me by saying I couldn’t have a son.”

Min smiled and said, "Qiming will report to the village chief, and we should be able to get the marriage certificate in a few days."

"middle."

As they were talking, they arrived at Ma Lianhe's house.

"mom……"

Ma Lianhe's mother-in-law came out of the kitchen: "What's wrong?"

"Mom, Qiming's girlfriend wants to order some food, can you buy some for her?"

Ma Lianhe's mother-in-law's eyes immediately lit up: "Okay, there are vegetables, I'll go to the kitchen to get them."

"Look, my mother-in-law is so happy. You've done our family a huge favor!"

“Look at these vegetables, this is…” The mother-in-law brought out a large bunch of vegetables.

"Auntie, I want all of these."

The mother-in-law's eyes lit up: "Would you like some pumpkin or winter melon?"

"Yes, Auntie, I can't carry this all by myself. You can come with me to take it home!"

"Okay, I'll deliver it myself, don't worry." The mother-in-law's face was full of joy.

Then, the mother-in-law took out a scale to measure the price of the vegetables.

Dried pickled cabbage is 45 cents a pound, winter melon is 20 cents a pound…

The mother-in-law always sold vegetables at the fair price set by the village.

In the past, she would prepare enough vegetables, but in the end, she could only sell them to middlemen at a low price of one cent per pound, and all her hard work would go to waste.

However, without middlemen, her vegetables went unsold.

Now, when Min needs to buy vegetables, she can sell them at the village's normal prices, which allows her to earn a considerable income.

She thought she could use the money to buy some condensed milk for her two granddaughters to spread on steamed buns.

"This price is acceptable," Min said with a smile.

She knew that the price her mother-in-law had set was fair.

"Then Auntie will write down the weight in her notebook, and we'll weigh the pumpkin again later."

"middle!"

The mother-in-law quickly took out a small basket and started weighing the food. After weighing it, she calculated the weight in a booklet.

Total amount: 47.98 yuan.

"Auntie, please prepare the same amount of vegetables for me every month from now on. I'll buy more. This time, I'll give you fifty yuan directly, is that alright?"

The mother-in-law was stunned. She actually gave her fifty yuan?

"That's wonderful!" The mother-in-law was so excited she almost drooled.

Ma Lianhe helped tie the bag tightly.

Her mother-in-law couldn't carry all those vegetables by herself, so she definitely had to help.

Besides, this is for the money she earns for condensed milk for her two daughters.

Her breast milk was not good, and the children couldn't suckle it at all.

Min slowly counted out five ten-yuan bills from her pocket and handed them to her mother-in-law.

"Auntie, check if the amount of money is correct."

"Yes, I counted them clearly, without a single mistake!"

The mother-in-law counted them excitedly once, then counted them again, still not entirely sure.

Ma Lianhe immediately chimed in, "Little sister, my mother-in-law and I will take these dishes up to you later."

"Oh, thank you so much."

"You're welcome. We should be thanking you."

Min picked up a small winter melon and left.

The mother-in-law smiled broadly and handed Ma Lianhe a five-yuan note.

"Take this and use it."

"Thank you mom!"

Ye Xiaohe was so excited that her face flushed.

"Let's go deliver the vegetables."

The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law simply picked up the groceries and headed to the station.

When they reached the halfway point of the mountain, the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law stopped to rest. "Mom, take a break. Climbing the mountain and carrying things is too tiring."

"Oh, indeed, take a break."

They rested by the roadside.

Just then, Min saw them at the door and shouted, "Xiao Xu, Xiao Xia, Xiao Xiu, the three of you go and get the vegetables."

Chen Xu ran out and asked, "Sis, are all those vegetables from our family?"

"Yes, hurry up and help carry it up!"

"Okay!"

The three children ran out, each grabbing a bag and running off.
