During this time, Grandpa Sun has accumulated a lot of charcoal by burning wood.
Going back and burning the fire every day, the charcoal can't be used up at all.
Zhao Xiulan saw the charcoal and said to Grandpa Sun, "Grandpa Sun, you have a lot of charcoal here!"
Grandpa Sun thought Zhao Xiulan needed it, so he said, "Girl Xiulan, do you want it? Just take it if you want. Burn some charcoal in winter and the house will be warmer."
Zhao Xiulan shook her head, "No, Grandpa, I have it at home too.
But you have so much charcoal, you can keep a part of it for yourself, and if you can't use up the rest, you can sell it, and you can exchange some money for food! "
After hearing Zhao Xiulan's words, Grandpa Sun was stunned for a while, and said in disbelief, "Daughter, can you still sell this charcoal for money?"
"Of course it's for sale!
This year, coal is also in limited supply!
Other seasons are fine, with most households supplying just enough coal.
But in winter, every house has to be heated, and coal is not enough!
Now sell some coal out, maybe you can get a good price! "
Hearing Zhao Xiulan say this, Grandpa Sun was a little moved and excited.
"Then Xiulan girl, who is this coal sold to? Are you going to the black market? I heard that the black market arrests Yan. If you are caught, you will have to go to jail!" Grandpa Sun asked worriedly. OK, but if you get caught, it's not worth it!
You can't take such a big risk for so little money, right?
Zhao Xiulan thought for a while and said, "Grandpa Sun, leave this to me. I'll go to my friend and ask her to see if she has access to it. If she sells it to an acquaintance, it doesn't matter if she doesn't go to the black market!"
"Done!" Grandpa Sun nodded in response.
He disposes of these things at the dump, and he gets a lot of wood every day.
If he can make money selling charcoal, he will bring back more to burn, and burn the charcoal and sell it to others.
Xiaofei is now in school, and her expenses have also increased.
He can't let Zhao Xiulan help and help all the time, it's better to be independent and independent!
If he can earn some money, Zhao Xiulan can help him less.
Zhao Xiulan continued busy cooking, with a total of two catties of pork belly, Zhao Xiulan made one catty of pork belly, and another catty of pork belly and shepherd's purse, and made some dumplings.
Now that the weather is cold, the dumplings will not be damaged if they are wrapped and placed in a ventilated place by the window. Grandpa Sun and Sun Xiaofei can cook a few dumplings when they want to eat, mainly for convenience.
The stewed pork belly was soft and rotten, and there were some quail eggs in it, which made a big plate full.
In addition, Zhao Xiulan scrambled a plate of scrambled eggs with garlic leaves, fried a plate of salted fish, and made a plate of stewed vermicelli with cabbage.
They finished eating at noon, and in the evening, Grandpa Sun and Sun Xiaofei continued to eat hot, so they were not afraid that they would not be able to eat and waste if they made too much.
After Sun Xiaofei came back from school, as soon as he entered the yard, he smelled the fragrant smell of the food, and felt very strange.
His grandpa's cooking is not so delicious!
"Grandpa, have you cooked yet? Why is it so delicious!" Sun Xiaofei said, sniffing hard.
Grandpa Sun replied with a smile, "Grandpa didn't cook, but your sister Xiulan came over to cook for us!"
As soon as Sun Xiaofei heard that Zhao Xiulan was coming, he happily rushed to the kitchen, "Sister Xiulan, sister Xiulan, you are here!"
Seeing Zhao Xiulan, Sun Xiaofei was happier than anyone he saw.
Zhao Xiulan replied with a smile, and then looked at Sun Xiaofei, um, yes, the little guy is a bit fatter than the last time she saw him!
