I was a young master in ancient times

Chapter 85 2 catties of meat

"Xiao Chuan."

After get off work at noon, Fu Chuan and Yang Erlang were about to go to the cafeteria, when they stepped out of the gate of the magazine office, they were immediately stopped.

"Big sister." Fu Chuan looked at Fu Dahua in surprise, "Why are you here?" He turned his head and apologized to Yang Erlang, "Brother Erlang, you go first, I will talk to my eldest sister for a while."

He is now renting a house in the yard of Yang Erlang's house, the price is not expensive, and Erlang's brother and grandma will help him cook breakfast and dinner.

"Why did you come to the county without telling the elder sister? Liu Xia showed you the face?" Fu Dahua looked at her brother distressedly.She is the eldest sister in the family, and she helped bring up the younger brothers and sisters below.The youngest, Fu Chuan, was hugged by her from childhood to adulthood.

"Sister, no one gave me a face. It takes time to walk back and forth to and from get off work. I live in the county, and I can read for more than an hour a day. I also spent money to find a teacher, so I can ask for advice from time to time."

"You, are you in a private school?" Fu Dahua was very pleasantly surprised, "We are promising in Xiaochuan."

The siblings talked for a while, and Fu Chuan said that he would take Fu Dahua to the cafeteria for dinner.

Fu Dahua touched the small basket she brought cautiously, "Eldest sister is not going, the eldest sister has brought cakes. After talking to you, the eldest sister is going back. Amao is still waiting for the eldest sister to cook."

"Elder sister." Fu Chuan tugged at her sleeves and whispered, "The cafeteria is roasting big meat today. It's okay to take someone to eat occasionally. It's not for nothing that you pay. But it's much cheaper than outside. I I heard that the cafeteria just bought a big pig this morning, and it will be roasted for us at noon, and the rest of the meat will be sold to us cheaply."

"Eldest sister, don't go, bring some meat back after dinner."

"Bring, what kind of meat do you bring?" Fu Dahua cared about money, but couldn't bear to buy meat casually.But I still feel a little itchy, cheap meat, "How much is a catty?"

"I don't know now. The meat will probably be sold after dinner."

"If I go to your cafeteria to eat, will people say us?" Fu Dahua was worried about causing trouble for his younger brother.

"It's not that you don't give money. If the family members come occasionally, give some money to show, and the cafeteria will eat. This is the young master's decision."

Fu Chuan looked like a little adult now, and Fu Dahua looked at it and laughed out loud.Fu Chuan laughed inexplicably, blushing, "Sister, what are you laughing at? This is really what the young master said."

"Okay, okay, okay, Eldest Sister knows. Today Eldest Sister will take advantage of our Xiaochuan and go to the cafeteria to eat big meat."

The canteen is in the courtyard of Yang Erlang's house, not far away, half a stick of incense away.

When Fu Chuan and Fu Dahua arrived, there was already a large chopping board in the yard. Lao Pi was wearing a coarse cloth apron, carrying a bone knife, and yelled loudly, "Which one do you want?"

Fu Chuan pulled Fu Dahua to the back of the line, leaned out most of his body, and shouted loudly, "Uncle Pi, how much is a catty of meat?"

"Oh, Xiao Chuan, why did you come to eat? Meat costs ten cents a catty, and one person can buy two catties at most."

As soon as Lao Pi's voice fell, Fu Chuan said, "Give me two catties."

Fu Dahua looked at the chopping board in disbelief, "Be good, the meat is only ten cents a catty."The meat outside is twenty yuan a catty, which is half the price.

The crowd of people buying meat was very fast, and within a short while, they were lined up with Fu Chuan and Fu Dahua.

Fu Dahua touched her pocket, and then remembered that she left in a hurry in the morning and didn't put a money bag in it.She patted Fu Chuan on the shoulder, and whispered awkwardly, "Ah Chuan, Eldest Sister won't buy it, and Sister forgot to bring the money."

Fu Chuan didn't reply, he picked up the meat, turned around and put it into the basket in Fu Dahua's hand. "Sister, I have money, and I earn money every month. You take it home and feed it to brother-in-law and Amao."

"Sister, how can I ask you for money, here, Xiaochuan," Fu Dahua was about to take out the meat in the basket, but Fu Chuan didn't want to talk to her, so he went to the cafeteria first.

Fu Dahua quickly chased after her with a basket on her shoulders, and was about to give a lecture, when she stepped into the cafeteria, she was shocked again. "You guys are really tidy. It's even more tidy than in the restaurant."

After paying the money and receiving a sign, Fu Chuan took Fu Dahua to have dinner.

One of them brought a wooden tray first, and when he saw the dish he wanted to eat, he took a small plate and put it on the tray.

Fu Dahua cautiously followed Fu Chuan's pace, she took whatever Fu Chuan took, for fear of making mistakes and making people laugh.There are several large pieces of meat in that small plate, just looking at it is gratifying.

Dizzy and seated, Fu Dahua realized that she had brought a plate of meat, a plate of chilli eggs and fried vegetables, and a small bowl of radish soup.Mommy, it's Chinese New Year.

"Elder sister, eat quickly." Fu Chuan gulped down a few pieces of meat, looked at the dazed older sister opposite, and couldn't help urging, "It's delicious."

Fu Chuan is growing up, he can eat a lot, and a bowl of rice will be exhausted soon.Seeing that Fu Dahua's meal was almost finished, he said, "Eldest sister, you can add more rice after eating, no matter how many bowls you want."

"Then you make another bowl for sister?" Fu Dahua handed over the clean bowl.I thought to myself, I would have known that I had brought Amao with me.

On the way back to the village with a basket in her arms, Fu Dahua kept thinking about things.In the past, I only heard that the magazine office provides food, has children, can attend classes for free, and distributes things during the Chinese New Year.After eating in the cafeteria once, two catties of meat fell into the basket, and only then did she truly appreciate the benefits of the magazine office.No wonder Liu Xia squeezed her head to take advantage.

Fu Gui and Amao just woke up, and they were washing their faces in the yard with well water.

When Fu Dahua walked into the courtyard, Amao immediately rushed over, "Mother, mother, where have you been?"

Fu Dahua picked up Amao with one hand, and showed Fu Gui the basket, "Guess what's in the basket."

"Eat the leftover pie?"

"Guess again, there are others."

Fu Dahua put Amao down with the basket, twisted the towel, and wiped Amao's face well.

Fu Gui pondered for a long time, but he couldn't think of what his mother-in-law could bring back from the county.Asked funny, "What?"

"Open it and have a look." Fu Dahua happily pointed at the basket.

Fu Gui lifted the blue cloth covering the basket, and saw a piece of meat inside at a glance.Swallowing, looked at Fu Dahua, and asked with a smile, "Why are you willing to buy meat? It costs two catties."

Fu Dahua said in a low voice, "I didn't buy it. Xiao Chuan bought it. I didn't bring any money this morning. It's a coincidence that the magazine killed a big fat pig today and sold it to the magazine's people cheaply. It only cost ten cents a catty." , each person will only buy two catties."

"Ten cents a catty, it's half cheaper than the ones sold outside." Fu Gui's eyes widened. "How is Xiao Chuan, where do you live?"

"I think it's very good, so I'm staying at a friend's house. I've seen it before, and it's better than our village." Then, Fu Dahua beamed and talked about the experience of eating in the canteen of the magazine. "You don't know, that rice can be eaten casually. I ate two bowls today. I don't need to clean up after I finish eating. I put it on a tray and take it to the recycling place. Do you know how much I spend for lunch?"

Fu Gui asked curiously, "How much?"

"I saw Xiao Chuan paid the money, only three copper coins."

"Yo, that's cheap." Fu Gui couldn't figure it out, several big pieces of meat, a small plate of eggs and two bowls of rice, only three bucks.

"I see that the restaurants in the county are not as good as there."

"I'll cook meat for you and Amao tonight."

Fu Gui was very happy, staring at Fu Dahua and smiling.

"Death." Fu Dahua tapped Fu Gui's shoulder lightly, "I'll discuss something with you again."

"Tell me, what's the matter?"

"I heard Xiao Chuan say today that they occasionally buy chickens and pigs. You know, most of their magazine offices are foreigners, and they live in rented houses here, and no one raises these chickens, ducks and pigs. I thought about it. Let's bring a few piglets back to serve them? There are rotten vegetables and leaves at home, and it's not troublesome to raise them."

"It's up to you. You take good care of Amao at home. When the county recruits workers, I will go to the county to work." Fu Gui is an honest and hardworking man.

At Beijiang Farm, Mrs. An asked Chen Ziche to help her get the needle threaded. She sat at the stone table and began to collect the shoes.The first pair of shoes must be made for Ankang.

At this time, Ankang and Lao Yang were discussing raising horses in the stable.Lao Yang is a master horse breeder sent by Song Zhenwei.

Mrs. An took on the task of teaching calligraphy. He has also read books for many years, and he is especially good at writing regular characters. His knowledge is several blocks ahead of Ankang.

Chen Ziche was finally able to hide for leisure, sitting under the big tree and chatting with old lady an.

Old Madam An didn't know about Chen Ziche's family affairs, so she said whatever came to her mind.It's also a coincidence that when the old lady and the old man had no money, they lived in Xiawa Village.Many old Mrs. An knew the old man Chen Ziche was talking about.

"Hi, how long has it been here?" Mrs. An said with emotion, looking at the yellowing wheat field in front of her eyes, she suddenly felt that time and space traveled back to Xiawa Village.

It was hard back then.Both she and the old man grew up as treasures at home.Wherever I can cook and wash clothes by myself, let alone farming, I am forced by life.Fortunately, the people in Xiawa Village were nice. At that time, there were a few little girls who hadn't gone out that often visited her house to teach her how to do things.

"Wow, woof." Suddenly, there was a sound of dogs barking on the other side of the wheat field.

Chen Ziche stood up and saw someone running towards him in the distance.
