Liu Meilan said, "How about we eat rice? Rice is quite hard to come by, and beef stewed with potatoes goes best with rice. What do you think?" She then asked Li Aiju and Xia Ran who were standing beside her.

In fact, Liu Meilan and her mother-in-law both like to eat rice more, but her father-in-law and husband have northern stomachs and always feel unfull without noodles.

So, all year round, we eat nothing but noodles. Today, I will be smart and have a good meal, because she is also greedy.

Li Aiju replied: "Okay, I mainly eat noodles at home, let's change the meal today."

Seeing that Xia Ran had already cut more than 3 kilograms of beef and was still cutting, he asked directly: "Sister Xia, you are not going to put all the meat in it, right? This is too much. Put less meat and more potatoes to stew together."

This is really bad at living. It may be that he put more food on purpose because he saw his relatives. This is too honest. Beef is so expensive.

"It's okay. They've already been soaked and washed. They won't keep well. Let's cook them all and eat them. It won't be a waste if we eat them in our stomachs."

"My sister, you can cook two or three meals, but you stewed it in one meal. And you still say it's not a waste?"

"It has to go into the stomach sooner or later anyway, so what difference does it make whether it goes in earlier or later?"

"Is that what I meant?"

There were many pots at home, so they steamed the rice directly in the pot in the outer courtyard and asked the yellow-haired girl to watch over it. This girl was so smart that she had been helping to watch the car at the gate to prevent it from being scratched.

When he saw Grandpa Junjun and his friends walking around the house, he became a tour guide and kept talking. When he saw Xia Ran steaming rice, he helped to light the fire. He is really an all-round kid.

Xia Ran stroked her curly head and went in.

Then vegetables were fried in two large pots in the kitchen, and potatoes, tomatoes and beef were slowly stewed in another pot.

In another pot, I made stir-fried shredded potatoes with meat sauce, some tiger-skin peppers, some scrambled eggs with tomatoes, some braised eggplant, and some cold cucumber salad.

After asking, I found out that everyone eats these dishes and there are no taboos. The meal was ready while the three of them were chatting and having fun.

The relationship between the three of them quickly heated up during the meal. Liu Meilan and Li Aiju always felt that they had met Xia Ran too late.

Xia Ran directly took out a large round table that could be folded and stood up, and put it out. She later asked the village carpenter to make this table specially, in case there were too many people to sit on it.

There was more than enough for 7 adults and 3 children. Everyone helped to bring the dishes. For fear that some people could not reach them, the large dishes were directly put on two plates, such as beef stew with potatoes, which was directly put on three large plates.

"What you cooked is so rich and exquisite. It smells so good. Your cooking skills are no worse than those in state-owned restaurants." Grandpa Junjun said with a smile, and his serious face relaxed a lot.

"If it smells good, eat more."

When we went to the outer courtyard to get some rice, the little girl had already become good friends with Junjun and Pengpeng. Children's happiness is so simple.

The food was served and all on the table. The three children were busy eating without even looking up. The adults paid some attention to their table manners, but they still lost their composure in front of these dishes.

In the end, even the rice crust at the bottom of the pot was eaten up by the two young fathers.

Liu Meilan was stunned and couldn't help complaining in her heart: Didn't my husband and father-in-law say they don't like rice? Is this why they don't like it? You two, none of you eat less.

It turns out that you don’t dislike rice, but you don’t have the right dish to go with it. She decided to buy some rice and cook it at home. The price of rice is about the same as that of flour, so it’s not unaffordable.

When Sister Xia was cooking today, she also learned a trick. Sister Xia didn't hide anything and talked about a lot of cooking skills. She told me in detail how to make the dishes more delicious, and she will cook them according to this method in the future.

When they finally left, Xia Ran had nothing to give in return, so she took out four bottles of honey from the food room, two for each family, and two watermelons, one for each family.

Li Aiju's family felt a little embarrassed. The secretary's family received a lot of gifts, so it was understandable for Xia Ran to treat them like this. But their family received very little, so it was too embarrassing to eat and take things at the same time.

However, Xia Ran didn't care about this, and didn't know about this, so she just said, "My family doesn't have anything rare to give as a return gift. I just happened to buy a few bottles of honey this morning, you can take them home and drink them. And these watermelons, each family can take one back."

Only after seeing the guests off did Xia Ran start to pack up the gifts.

Two bottles of Maotai, two bottles of Xifeng Liquor, two bottles of Hongtashan, and two bottles of Dayan Pagoda. These things are not cheap, so I just put them away.

How could I have forgotten about Moutai? I should have bought more. The appreciation of this stuff is so scary! I'll go to the county town and ask what the price is now?

This money is obviously not enough to spend.

When I saw Hongta Mountain, something flashed through my mind, but I couldn't grasp it so quickly. There were also four rolls of cloth, in different colors, one dark blue, one khaki, one pure black, and one floral.

Then there are the cakes. This thank-you gift is too much. I looked at the time and it was time to go to the credit union.

I exchanged 530 yuan in banknotes and more than 5 yuan in small coins from Director Liang. All the banknotes were old money.

The dates shown on the banknotes include 53, 60, and 80, with 80 being the majority. There are denominations of 50 yuan, 5 yuan, 10 yuan, 2 yuan, and 1 yuan.

Xia Ran didn't seem to have any impression of these coins, but they looked very familiar to her. Maybe, all the coins looked similar. She couldn't tell which ones were valuable and which ones were not.

Why couldn't she learn a little more about this in her later life? She only read social gossip and entertainment stars every day. What's the point of reading those things?

I'm regretting it so much now. You see, without some skills, even if I'm reborn and start over again, I may not be able to get rich.

There are three big black ten notes in it. Because of their large size, they are very conspicuous among a pile of 10-yuan bills. But the condition is not very good. It is obvious that they have been folded and stored for a long time, and there are creases on them.

However, it is better to have something than nothing. Fortunately, she still knows about the Big Black Ten. She wants to make money, and make a lot of money.

The coins were all in denominations of 1, 2 and 5 cents, and it took me a long time to count them.

Before going to bed, she remembered that she should go into the space to sort out her things. She decided that she would go to Shanghai and leave in the next few days. As soon as she entered the space, she was shocked. The area of ​​the space had more than doubled.

I walked around and measured it. I estimated that it was about 100 square meters. The growth rate was good. Was this her reward for saving people? This was good. Very good.

The large space makes it convenient for her to move goods and accumulate capital quickly.
