"Sister-in-law, there are a lot of good things here in Jiangcheng, including bacon and sausages, so you don't have to be polite to me. You can take them back and eat them yourself." Zhao Xiulan persuaded.
Only then did Zhao Hong put away the salted fish and bacon.
"Sister, where did you buy this pork belly? I'm so lucky. I've been squatting in the grocery store for half a month, and I haven't bought any meat yet." Zhao Hong said, a little envious.
Zhao Xiulan knew that this pork was really hard to buy.
I had to whisper to Zhao Hong, "That, sister-in-law, I didn't buy this pork through formal channels."
"What?" Zhao Hong opened her mouth in surprise, then lowered her voice and whispered in Zhao Xiulan's ear, "Sister Xiulan, did you buy this pork from the black market?
It's a dangerous place, you can't risk it. "
Zhao Xiulan comforted, "Sister-in-law, it's okay, I bought it from a source, it's not on the black market, it's very safe.
Do you want it, if you want it, I will ask someone to bring you two pounds tomorrow? "
Zhao Hong looked at Zhao Xiulan in disbelief and asked, "Ah? Sister Xiulan, is it true? Can you buy pork for me?"
"Sister-in-law, you see that I bought it myself, don't you believe it?"
Zhao Hong thought about it too. Pork here is so hard to buy, but Zhao Xiulan got it.
It would be hard to believe if she hadn't seen it with her own eyes.
"That's good, sister Xiulan, thank you so much, hey, the children in the family haven't eaten meat for a long time, and men work hard, so they have to eat some meat. Fortunately, I met you, otherwise I will rely on me. I want to buy pork from a non-staple food store, but I don't know when I have to wait." Zhao Hong muttered.
Zhao Hong has only two daughters, not many children, and the two daughters are also very well-behaved, and they are playing in the house at the moment.
After promising to bring meat to Zhao Hong, Zhao Hong hurried over with money and tickets.
Zhao Xiulan also collected too much, but Zhao Hong knew that even if there was a way to get pork, it would definitely not be too cheap.
In the end, it was given to Zhao Xiulan at the price of five yuan per catty and one catty of meat tickets.
Zhao Xiulan wanted to charge less, but she was afraid of Zhao Hong's suspicion and felt that something was wrong, so she simply charged five yuan a pound.
While chatting with Zhao Hong, Zhao Xiulan had already cooked a few vegetarian dishes. The meat was stewed at the end, and the fragrant smell wafted far away, causing everyone in the dormitory to drool.
Even Zhao Hong couldn't help but sigh, "Sister, this pork belly is really fragrant! It makes me greedy when I smell it!"
"Sister-in-law, when it's cooked, I'll give you a bowl, and you can take it for your children."
Zhao Hong quickly waved his hand and said, "No, no, this can't be done.
Sister Xiulan, this meat is a good thing of Jingui. You can keep it for yourself. If you bring it to me tomorrow, I will also have meat to eat, so you don't have to give it to me today. "
"Otherwise, sister-in-law, I'll give you a bowl today, and you'll give me another bowl tomorrow. Let's eat some today, so as to satisfy your cravings. It's been a long time since I've eaten meat."
Zhao Hong thought about it for a while, and this seems to be fine.
As long as she doesn't take advantage of Zhao Xiulan, she is still happy.
Otherwise, Zhao Xiulan gave it to her in vain, and she would be embarrassed to accept it.
"That good girl, thank you so much, just give me a small bowl."
"Okay, sister-in-law, wait for me to cook it. This meat will be tender after stewing for a while."
Zhao Hong is not in a hurry, she herself has not prepared the meal yet, so she will have to wait for the meal to start.
