Therefore, several other families in the compound are very envious of Zhao Xiulan and Jiang Cheng, who can live in such a big and good house.
Many people, like Xu Ling, wanted to come and see what Zhao Xiulan and Jiang Cheng's house was like, but they were not as cheeky as Xu Ling, and went straight to the house to see, basically they just stood at the door. Just take a look inside the house.
Seeing the dress in Zhao Xiulan's house, they all sighed that Zhao Xiulan's new house was so beautifully packed.
Not to mention the beautiful furniture, the curtains, tablecloths, and the vases and tables inside are incomparable to others.
On the weekend of vacation, the people in the compound gathered together and discussed the houses of Zhao Xiulan and Jiang Cheng.
Women from several other families praised Zhao Xiulan as a virtuous and good girl, who can keep the house so clean and tidy, and dress up so beautifully. It is really impossible for other young women to do this.
When Xu Ling heard others praise Zhao Xiulan, she felt a little sour when she thought of Zhao Xiulan's ignoring her. Hearing other people's praise, he said, "What's the matter? There are no children in the house, so it will be neat and tidy after a little tidying up. When the baby is born, let's see if the house can be kept so clean!"
Hearing Xu Ling's words, the few people sitting in the courtyard chatting together felt that there was some truth to what they said.
Once the family has children, it is not easy to keep it clean. Children are very skinny, and they can make a mess in the house in three or two times.
The most important thing is that after a woman has a child, she has to help take care of the child most of the time, so how can she spend so much time tidying up and cleaning the house.
As soon as Zhao Xiulan went out and was about to draw a basin of water, she heard Xu Ling's arrangement outside and was speechless. I knew that this woman likes to talk to the bottom of her tongue, but I didn't expect to talk about such a trivial matter.
However, Xu Ling said that Zhao Xiulan was too lazy to care, and went directly to the killing well and drew some water.
In this era, tap water is not particularly popular, some homes have tap water, and some homes have not.
There are only a few people who have access to running water. Every compound has a well, and it is very convenient to use the water in the well.
Xu Ling was talking vigorously, but she didn't expect Zhao Xiulan to come out suddenly, and she felt a little guilty. I wondered if Zhao Xiulan had just heard her words.
Zhao Xiulan went back to the house after filling up the water, and wiped the inside and outside of the house with a rag.
She likes the clean look of her home. The new home is so nice, and she prefers to clean up when she has nothing to do.
After a while, it was time for lunch.
Zhao Xiulan went to the non-staple food store today, and she was lucky. She bought a pound of spareribs and prepared to cook them at noon. She made a sauce-flavored spareribs for Jiangcheng. She was greedy herself, and wanted to eat a lot.
There are also vegetarian dishes. Zhao Xiulan is going to cook a stewed eggplant, a celery, and another soup, which is enough for both her and Jiang Cheng.
Several other households also went to the kitchen, busy with lunch.
In addition to Zhao Xiulan who bought spare ribs, Yang Shumin also bought a pound of pork belly, and several other households did not buy meat to eat.
It’s not that I don’t want to eat meat. First, I want to buy meat and I may not be able to buy it. There is not much meat in the non-staple food store, and I have to wait in line to see my luck. Second, everyone is an ordinary working class, and basically only a man works alone in the family, and there are only a few pounds of meat tickets a month, and they will be gone when they are used up, so they can only save money.
