Wear 70 with the Taobao system

In a small alley next to the family area, a small vegetable market has formed.

Everyone knows that the people who live here are all cadres in the government, and they are not short of money, so every day from 08 am to 30:04, and from 30:[-] to [-] pm, everyone will carry their burdens to sell here, and the business is smooth. Not bad.

Xiang Nuan went there directly. There was a store selling lo mei at the entrance of the alley. She bought it twice, and the taste was very good.

I heard that there is a unique secret recipe at home, and some Chinese herbal medicines are added to the sauce, which is good for the body and good for the body.

At this time, the Chinese herbal medicines are mostly wild, and they are all old, so they are full of medicinal properties. If they are added to food, Xiang Nuan does not know if they are effective, but the faint herbal fragrance tastes really delicious.

She bought braised pork and pig ears at the braised meat stall at the entrance of the alley.

Then continue walking down the alley.

As soon as you enter, someone greets you warmly.

"Sister, we are shopping for vegetables. Our vegetables are all freshly picked from the suburbs. They are fresh and juicy." A woman who was much older than Xiang Nuan greeted her.

Calling elder sister is not because Xiang Nuan is old, but when people here see married women, they call elder sister, and unmarried women call younger sister.

Xiang Nuan took a look at the stall, juicy cucumbers, tomatoes, a few zucchini (striped, not sweet, but very crisp), half a basket of shelled peanuts with some soil on them, half a basket of shelled edamame .

Xiang Nuan knelt down and grabbed the peanut, it was quite tender.

"Now there are peanuts?"

According to the normal season, peanuts are generally not harvested until July and August, and it is only at the end of June now.

The eldest sister enthusiastically turned the basket containing peanuts upside down: "That's all, I grew them in the wheat field. I found them when I was harvesting the wheat. At that time, I saw that they were blooming and I didn't want to throw them away. I kept them for another period. Time, no, if there is something else to plant in the field, we can only pull it out, and that’s all it takes.”

City C is the central region, where rice is grown in paddy fields and wheat is grown in dry land.

Both rice and wheat are grown.

"How to sell?" Xiang Nuan asked.

As soon as the woman saw Nuan, she knew she was a female cadre, and she didn't ask for any price.

"This peanut, you give Sanmao a catty."

San Mao is not cheap anymore. When peanuts are on the market, no one will buy them for a dime or a catty, because every household has them.

There are no people in the city, but who doesn't have a relative in the country?

That is, when I first came out, the people in the city had a fresh look.

Xiang Nuan never haggles when buying vegetables, there is no need, she is not short of that one cent, so why bother to haggle with these people who exchange their sweat for some money.

"Where's the edamame?"

"It's cheap, you give me fifty cents a catty."

As the eldest sister spoke, she began to pick and pull, throwing out some shrunken shells or those with insect eyes, and picking the full ones into the weighing pan.

Xiang Nuan bought five and a half catties of peanuts and three catties of edamame.

I came out in a hurry, forgetting that there were not so many plastic bags in this era, so I spent [-] cents to buy a half-new vegetable basket.

It was two yuan and seventy-five cents in total, and Xiang Nuan gave two yuan and eighty cents, so the five per cent was fine.

The eldest sister refused to take advantage, so she grabbed two handfuls of edamame and gave them to her, but Xiang Nuan didn't refuse.

"Come back later." The eldest sister warmly greeted.

I changed stalls, bought three cucumbers, and went to a supply and marketing cooperative to buy a watermelon that ripens in June.

Today, the watermelons of the third brigade of Xinghua Town are still growing, but they are no longer collectively owned by everyone. They have formed a planting scale. When the season comes, the melon farmers work tirelessly. I started picking watermelons after 70:120 in the afternoon. After the watermelons were picked, I had a quick dinner, then brought dry food and a water bottle, and then I pulled a cart and walked more than [-] kilometers to the county, or more than [-] kilometers to sell in the city. watermelon.

A cart can pull more than 400 kilograms, and these carts have been heightened, just to pull more.

Generally, there are two working together, and the worst is a middle-aged husband and wife team.

Adults can walk nine to ten kilometers an hour without carrying heavy loads. These people are used to farm work. Pulling a cart of watermelons will not slow down their speed, so they can walk every hour. Walk seven or eight kilometers.

Usually four or five families make an appointment together, and there are scales and watermelon knives in the car, so I'm not afraid.

Tired in the middle of the night, I found a place to lie on the scooter, got up after two or three hours of sleep, and then drove to the county or city.

Because the price in the county and the city can be higher, so in order to earn more money, they have to rent two to three hundred kilometers back and forth, and they will not complain about hard work.

Every penny earned by farmers is hard-earned money.

Xiang Nuan bought some watermelons and walked back. On the way, he couldn't stop the warm greetings from the vegetable farmers, and bought several more vegetables.

When Tang Heping found it, there was no room for Xiang Nuan's vegetable basket, so he just hugged the big watermelon.

Tang Heping hurried forward to take the things in her hand, while muttering: "Why do you buy so much at once? The weather is hot and it is easy to break."

"Lao Zhou and the others are coming tonight, so I just want to cook a few more dishes. Haven't you guys seen each other for a long time?"

Tang Heping did not speak.

When he got home, Tang Heping washed all the dishes he was going to cook.

Every peanut has been pinched to make it easier to taste, and both ends of the soybeans have been cut off.

When cutting the edamame, Tang Heping muttered that he had never seen edamame with the shell on.

Xiang Nuan scolded him: "That's because you don't know how to eat."

"Okay, okay, I haven't eaten your cooking for a long time, let's see you show your skills today."

In fact, the taste of Xiang Nuan's cooking is pretty good. There was a ready-made cafeteria before marriage, and the cafeteria continued after marriage. During the period when the child was born and went to school, there was someone cooking at home. Tang Heping was also responsible for the meals for the family of four during the period when Tang Heping came.

So she really hasn't cooked for a long time.

"Okay, you and Lao Zhou have a good drink tonight, and leave the rest to me."

Tang Heping smiled and said nothing.

Xiang Nuan was forced to come down from the stage by his appearance: "Go and pick up the two little ones, I promise you will have a sumptuous dinner when you come back."

Tang Heping nodded: "Then Director Tao has worked hard."

After speaking, he took off the apron on one side and tied it on Xiang Nuan, and patted her on the shoulder: "Director Tao, come on."

That awkward look caused Xiang Nuan to volley in the air, Tang Heping twisted his waist to avoid it, and then went out the door laughing.

Xiang Nuan: "..."

Being questioned by his own man about his cooking skills, he must show his skills tonight.

Tang Heping has already prepared a sweet and sour pork ribs, a chili stir-fried leek, an eggplant stewed beans, and Xiang Nuan bought a few more meat dishes, and now he can just make some appetizers.

Peel the squash and cut it into thin slices, put some sugar in the salad, and the tomato in the salad, for the children to eat, cut off a cucumber and pat it, add vinegar, mix it with garlic, add a little sesame oil, a little chili oil, the taste is absolutely amazing.

Put the peanuts and edamame in the pot together, add star anise, cinnamon, salt, dried chili, then cover the pot and let it simmer.

A table of dishes, isn't that enough?
