Happy life of a woman in the space apocalypse

Chapter 199: Prepare for the New Year

Early in the morning, A Tai and his friends rode their bikes to the county town. The New Year customs in the south are very different from those in the north. They are not used to them and cannot eat the food as they please, so they could only ask people to prepare some suitable ingredients as much as possible.

"We found three pounds of milk yesterday, and I wonder how many pounds of mutton and other things we can get today."

"The supply from the black market is not good right now, mainly because the journey is too far and the transportation is not safe."

"We were originally planning to expand the black market, but it took us so long to take down two."

"Crossing the sea must be put on the agenda, otherwise it will be difficult to maintain."

......

Pu Ruqing was quite busy that day. His wife had someone send five bags of food, which she said looked like a lot, but were actually not enough to sustain everyone for three days. In his opinion, it was enough to have a gathering during the New Year, and there shouldn't be such an eyesore in the house every day.

Jian Wu took out ten packets of hot pot base, one of which was taken home by Ji Fei for research. He said that he would be able to research it out sooner or later. It made me want to laugh just listening to it, because the "black technology" in it couldn't even find the raw materials.

"Wuwu, my grandfather told us to go to the villager's house to exchange some eggs and roosters, and take a walk at the same time."

"Okay, I'll just get some tickets and go."

She was wearing a light yellow cotton-padded jacket and had a pigtail hanging on her right shoulder. Her face had indeed become fatter, but it made her dark-skinned appearance even more cute.

"It's really beautiful. Wuwu looks good in anything she wears."

"From now on, you should change your name to Wu Kua Kua. You praise me so much every day that I feel like I'm walking on air. By the way, I need to get two baskets. I want to exchange for more eggs so that I can make tiger skin eggs and tea eggs."

"Hey, there's going to be some delicious food again."

Pu Ruqing poked his head out from the warehouse, rolled his eyes at "Chirping Bird", and then gave his wife a gentle smile.

"Remember not to carry heavy objects. You will need to use them if you have a follower."

Jian Wu smiled and glared at someone. She felt uncomfortable because of the unknown fights she had every day.

"Haha, you really don't need to worry about it, Mr. Pu. I'm in great pain, Wuwu."

There are quite a few families raising chickens in the brigade, but each family raises a fixed amount of chickens, and the number that can be saved is limited, so the two of them started from the nearest family and visited each family one by one.

Those who could save three, five, or even ten coins were considered to be able to save. This made it difficult for Jian Wu, who had to pay the money, to count the small amounts of money. The key was that there was not enough change. Some families wanted to exchange tickets but did not have so many things to exchange, and they wanted to take out all the food and vegetables at home.

When they arrived at Yi Shengchan's house, it was Yang Qian who opened the door. When she saw Jian Wu, she warmly welcomed her into the yard, without any estrangement caused by the previous incident.

"You two are really inexperienced. To exchange things, it's easier to gather everyone's stuff together. Tell me what else you need, and I'll get the rest for you."

"We have collected 40 or 50 eggs. Another 50 will be enough. We need 10 big roosters. It would be even better if we could get some ducks."

"Hahahaha, we can get them all. There are seven or eight hundred people in a brigade and it's enough for you to eat if you just pick some."

Jian Wu quickly took out some money and tickets, and told them to keep as much as they wanted.

Yi Shengchan also came out to entertain the guests. Now, let alone complaining about others, the only thing left to express his gratitude is gratitude and offerings.

"Come in and sit down and wait. I'll get you some water."

"You're welcome. We actually want to take a look at your vegetable garden."

"Okay, okay, there aren't as many varieties of vegetables now as in the summer, but fortunately your aunt takes good care of them."

Jian Wu felt ashamed when she thought of the few vegetables in her family's vegetable garden. She and her child's father watered them every day, but they did not grow well.

"The vegetables we grow at home are not enough for one meal. It seems that we need to cultivate more feelings with the land of Qingyang Brigade."

"Hahahaha, Wuwu, you talk so interestingly, and you even cultivate a relationship with the land."

Ran Ruyi really likes being with her little sisters, and every word she says is classic.

The chattering sound finally woke Yi Lingling up. She thought it was her second sister-in-law showing off early in the morning. She was so angry that she threw herself on the bed several times before she calmed down.

I walked out of the house with a gloomy face, and finally found that the person who was talking was not my second sister-in-law, but seemed to be...

She quickly rushed to the vegetable garden in the backyard and finally confirmed who had come to her house. She silently looked at the two people's clothes carefully from behind. Ran Ruyi had just changed her clothes a few days ago. It was really a blessing to be a child of an official.

"Ahem, you guys are here."

The three of them turned to look at Yi Lingling. In fact, it was difficult to find such a fair-skinned girl in the sunny south.

"Good morning, did I wake you up?"

Ran Ruyi is a cute and lively little angel who is enthusiastic towards everyone. This is what Jian Wu lacks and the reason why she is willing to approach her.

"No, no, I should wake up too. Are you here to pick vegetables? Let me help."

"No, no, we're just looking around."

Ran Ruyi's attempts to stop her were ineffective. Before long after she finished speaking, the other person had already picked many of them with nimble hands and feet.

Yi Shengchang didn't stop her. As long as her daughter didn't do anything stupid and was smart and could get along well with others, it would be good for everyone.

She had looked and walked around, but the person she was waiting for had not come back yet, so Jian Wu did not refuse the invitation to sit in the yard and drink water. However, she was definitely not the main person to chat with, so she just smiled and watched Ruyi chattering.

"My family has prepared rice wine dumplings for the New Year. I'll bring some back for you later."

"In fact, if you think about it, living by the sea during the New Year is better than in the north. At least there are lots of sea fish to eat, and rice noodles can be considered a dish."

In an era when everything had to be purchased with coupons, seafood from coastal areas was relatively cheap and added a lot of dishes to the northerners' menu.

"That's because you don't eat enough. People like us who were born and raised here have really had enough. We don't know when we can have a good meal of meat again."

Jian Wu sighed in her heart, it was still a long way to go before she could eat meat to her heart's content.

Not long after they sat there, Yang Qian came back with a few people carrying baskets and baskets. The chickens and ducks that were still fluttering were tied up tightly.

"Eighty eggs, eleven chickens, four ducks, and two snakes caught today. They'll be great for snake soup."

"Snake! You have such strong tastes."

The snake was in a sack. Ran Ruyi got goosebumps even before she saw it. She wanted to stay away from it and signaled Jian Wu not to take it.

Jian Wu was not so resistant. Although she had never eaten it before, she still had the courage to try it.

"Very good. Sorry for bothering you all."

"What's the trouble? We just want to exchange some tickets so we can go to the county town to buy some things we need."

Everyone was very satisfied after exchanging the money and notes. There were too many things, so Yang Qian and Yi Jia'an had to help deliver them together. This way, Yi Lingling would have a reasonable reason to follow and step into these people's homes again.

But this time they went to the Ji family, and Ji Fei had to deal with the chickens and ducks. This was also the first time that Yi Lingling saw him as a recluse.
