The newly married reborn cold-faced boss dotes on his delicate wife
Chapter 66: 1 Stunning Blows
Chen Xiangdong and his wife spent a lot of effort to make these things. They first delivered fresh meat and lard that day, and the next day they delivered braised meat that had been soaked in brine overnight. As for the bacon and sausages, Li Changpu went to pick them up himself a week later.
When he saw this pile of things, to be honest, he was a little dumbfounded.
How to describe this shocking scene?
A mountain of flesh and a sea of flesh!
No, people in Wenhai City buy meat on this scale?
When Jiang Tingxia asked him to come and get the meat, he thought it was only a few dozen kilograms, so he only took a dozen yuan and left. It seemed that the money was not enough, so he had to say, "I'll pay when I come to get the food next time."
He estimated that so many things would cost more than 150 yuan. He didn't have enough money at home, so he had to borrow money for emergency. Unexpectedly, Chen Xiangdong said, "The money has been given."
Li Changpu asked, "Did Jiang Tingxia give it to you?"
Chen Xiangdong answered truthfully, "Yes, when she came to buy the meat, she paid all the money in one go."
Li Changpu asked, "How much did she pay?"
Chen Xiangdong couldn't stop smiling when he thought of this. He made a fortune this year. Now when he heard Li Changpu ask this, he thought that he, as the man of the family, had some doubts about the deal. How could that work? The couple was his gods of wealth now, and he couldn't leave any misunderstandings. So he explained, "The pork was weighed. Your family took 213 kilograms, a total of 132.6 yuan. The seasoning cost 11.30 yuan. I agreed with the girl on labor costs, 20 yuan, so the total was 163.36 yuan. I rounded off the amount and charged 163 yuan. I definitely didn't charge more."
One hundred and sixty-three yuan, Jiang Tingxia paid it herself, with the money from selling her watch.
As the old saying goes, a penny can make a hero fall. In the past, he lived and ate in the army and had no real sense of money. Now he finally understands this saying. One hundred and sixty-three yuan was like a club hitting him. It is natural for a man to earn money to support his family, but Jiang Tingxia had to sell his watch to eat pork to follow him.
How could this happen if he wasn't short of money?
What would Jiang Tingxia think? Would she complain about him over-subsidizing the family like Zhang Hongxiang did? And what should he do? I'm afraid he would make the same choice as Zhao Yong. After all, she was his only sister, and he couldn't just ignore her.
Li Changpu knew clearly what she would think and what he would choose, but he was still avoiding the question intentionally or unintentionally.
You see, when people ask questions, they already have the answers in their hearts.
……
On the one hand, it was to avoid people. After all, the bacon and sausages were of illegal origin and could not be too conspicuous, so they could only be taken in small packages. On the other hand, the amount of pork was indeed quite large, and Li Changpu moved it three times before he was finally able to take it all back home.
The bacon and sausages were hung in the utility room. Li Changpu opened the windows to keep it ventilated and let in sunlight.
Li Changpu looked at the room full of meat and twitched his mouth suddenly. If Jiang Tingxia, with her small stomach, were to eat it all by herself, she would probably eat until she was gray-haired.
……
In the morning, Zhang Xinran came to visit with her two children.
Jiang Tingxia liked her new name very much. She said that this name was given to her by her husband. Thinking of the bespectacled, gentle man she met on the wedding day, Jiang Tingxia had a better impression of him.
After sitting for a while, she had nothing to do, so she used hot water to blanch a piece of dough to steam spring pancakes. It happened that she had some braised pig ears at home, which went perfectly with the spring pancakes.
Zhang Xinran is a good worker. With her help, a table of dishes were quickly prepared. Spring rolls must be served with rich side dishes.
For vegetarian dishes, Jiang Tingxia only prepared one dish of fried potatoes and shredded carrots and one dish of stir-fried mixed vegetables.
The rest could almost be called a pork feast, because there was too much pork to finish, so Jiang Tingxia could only eat as much as he could. He fried some Beijing-style shredded pork, some spicy shredded pork, minced pork with vermicelli, stir-fried pork heart, and pan-fried pork belly.
Then I cut a plate of pork head for cold salad, served with salted pork noodles, a piece of red oil ear slice, a piece of braised heart meat, and a plate of finely chopped green onion.
When Zhang Xinran and the children were leaving, Jiang Tingxia insisted that they take an extra large portion of braised meat with them, not for any other reason, but simply because it was too much.
Jiang Tingxia realized later that she had made a mistake in buying meat this time. She had never thought that she could buy so many things with just one hundred yuan. Just the two pig heads, for example, turned out to be such a big pot of stew. She didn't know how long it would take to eat it.
At this moment, she wished someone would come and share her burden.
Li Changpu came back a little later than usual at noon. Not only that, he was holding a pheasant with its feet tied in his hand.
Jiang Tingxia was stunned, "Where did this come from?"
Li Changpu threw the pheasant on the ground because it was noisy, so he tied up the pheasant's beak.
"We caught those we met in the mountains and brought them back."
He said it easily and Jiang Tingxia didn't care, because when she was little, Grandpa Jiang took her to such mountains for vacation. There were wild animals everywhere in the mountains, and it was easy to catch one. It was not difficult at all. It was easy to catch a wild animal in the mountains.
The traps she and her grandfather made caught many pheasants and rabbits overnight, but they didn't catch them to eat, they just wanted to play with them, and most of them were released in the end.
Those little animals were pitiful and well-behaved. When she was a child, she was very curious and it was completely safe for her to touch these wild animals. They were as gentle as pets.
The pheasant that Li Changpu brought back was quite different. It had a strong personality. Even after being thrown on the ground, it flapped its wings a few times and tried to fly.
Jiang Tingxia was frightened by the pheasant's fluttering, took a few steps back, and said, "I thought it was going to fly into my face."
Li Changpu knew that she was timid, so he comforted her, "No, I clipped its wings, so it can't fly."
Jiang Tingxia pointed at the pheasant's wings, which were clearly still there, and said, "Isn't this its wing? It was clearly not cut off."
Li Changpu explained, "When I say clip the wings, I mean just clip the long feathers on the wings, and it won't be able to fly."
Jiang Tingxia was confused when he heard what he said. He pointed at the pheasant that Li Changpu brought back and said, "No, the pheasants I have seen since I was a child have wings like this. They are born like this."
Li Changpu was also puzzled. Some pheasants were born with clipped wings. He asked, "Is that so?"
Li Changpu added, "Then what you saw was a pheasant whose wings had been clipped."
Jiang Tingxia immediately rejected the idea, "Impossible, we caught the pheasant in the wild."
Who clips the wings of a pheasant? A wild man?
She thought for a moment and said, "That means the two of us saw different species of pheasants."
