All Heavens Pension started from the fiery era

Chapter 11 11. Treating each other differently
The things in Yue Wenxuan's hands were placed on the table in the main room, and the old lady's eyes swept over the two big carps, the cured duck and the two military uniforms, her small triangular eyes seemed to shine , bright scary.

"His second uncle, you are too polite, come here as soon as you come, why do you bring so many things? This is too expensive!"

The smile on the old lady's face is not to mention how sincere, an old face smiles like a chrysanthemum.

"It's not expensive. It's been four years since I came back last time. Thanks to you for taking care of my eldest sister these years, I bought you some nutritional supplements. Isn't it right?"

Yue Wenxuan's social conversations came as soon as he opened his mouth.

Looking at these things on the table again, the old lady was very satisfied.

What his daughter-in-law said just now is correct, the second uncle of the child is indeed generous, and the three gifts he brought are each more rare than the other, and any one of them looks rare.

Let's just talk about these two military uniforms. Although they are not brand new, they are probably new, and they are no different from newly made clothes.

If you buy cloth yourself to make such two military uniforms, you need 31 feet of cloth anyway.

Now in Kyoto City, each person is issued a 6-foot cloth ticket every year, and it takes 5 years for a person to make such two sets of clothes.

Even if Yue Wenxuan only brought these two sets of clothes when he came to the door today, it would be regarded as a great gift.

That cured duck is even more rare, and it must be a little less than two catties.Even if their family has a large population, the meat tickets for 7 people cannot buy such a duck in a month.

What the old lady was most curious about were the two big carps.

It's not that the fish meat is better than the duck meat, but that the two carp are too big. It doesn't matter whether they are delicious or not in this day and age, the most important thing is the quantity.

According to the old lady's accurate estimation, these two big carps must weigh 10 catties.

This is all meat!
Although fish meat is not as good as fat meat, it is also very good for supplementing nutrition.

The supply is too tight in the past six months, and their whole family is short of nutrition, especially his eldest grandson, who has lost all the fat that she raised with great difficulty, and the old lady feels distressed when she sees it.

These two fish, half of which were cut off to entertain his second uncle, are not old or young.She prepared to marinate the remaining one and a half, and save it for her grandson to eat slowly.

There are so many things, she uses finer things, enough to eat until the Chinese New Year.This time, no matter what, she had to make up for the fat her eldest grandson lost from starvation.

"Wen Jing, sit and talk with his second uncle for a while, I'll go find the tea at home and make a pot of tea for his second uncle."

After saying this, the old lady hurriedly went to the back room to search for things.

"Wenxuan, you have changed your job, and you will never leave again?" Yue Wenjing was most concerned about this matter.

"I'm not leaving. I will report to the Dongfang Machinery Factory in a while. From now on, our family will never be separated again."

"Okay, that's great! Although you have a better future in the army, I'm more happy to see you go back to work in the local area. At least it's safe? In a person's life, there is no such thing as a good life, and safety is the most important thing."

Knowing that the second younger brother would never leave again, and no longer have to worry about him being sacrificed outside, Yue Wenjing was overjoyed.

The old lady took out a small tea box, opened the lid, pointed to the broken tea leaves inside and said:

"It was still spring, and Zhansheng went to the leader's house to help, and the leader gave him a thank you gift.

It is said that what is Junshan Maojian, Dingding good tea, although it is a bit broken, it does not affect the taste at all.

We ordinary people don't understand this either, his second uncle, you are a dry cloth, you have a taste and see how this tea is? "

Yue Wenxuan really likes to drink tea, but he has never drunk this kind of broken tea.

Even this kind of broken tea that few people in later generations will drink is rare in this era. It is called "Gao Sui" or "Gao Mo" by some.

The reason why tea is so rare is that tea, like peanuts, is the main force for export and foreign exchange earning. Normally, ordinary people naturally don't see it.

The old lady wanted to make tea for him with her own hands, Yue Wenxuan hurriedly snatched it over, and said while making tea:
"It's really good tea. It's very rare. My eldest brother-in-law is highly skilled and careful in doing things. It's no wonder that the leaders value him."

Yue Wenxuan praised the old lady's eldest son, and this compliment reached her heart, and he chatted with him enthusiastically.

The old lady knew that Yue Wenxuan and her elder sister hadn't seen each other for many years, so she must have a lot to say, so she left her daughter-in-law to talk with her younger brother, and went to the kitchen to prepare by herself.

Before noon, Wang Zhansheng and his father walked in the door talking and laughing with Yue Bingjiang.

It turned out that it was Yue Bingjiang who told Wang Zhansheng about Yue Wenxuan's visit today. Wang Zhansheng and his father were going to come back to accompany the guests. Of course, Yue Bingjiang, the father-in-law, was also called over.

Seeing her in-laws coming to the door, the old lady first said a few polite words to Yue Bingjiang, and then said to Yue Wenjing:
"Wen Jing, I've already stewed the fish. You take out the bacon from our house. Didn't you say that his second uncle likes your braised pork? Let's make braised pork today.

Don't be reluctant, cook all the meat and don't keep any.It's rare for his second uncle to eat your braised pork, so he must have a good time. "

Yue Wenxuan hurriedly said: "It's not easy to save some meat these days, I don't think you should cook braised pork, it's too expensive! Putting a few slices of meat in the dish is enough, don't waste it, let's keep the meat Give it to my eldest nephew."

In his memory, the braised pork cooked by the elder sister was really delicious, but today he did not dare to hold out any hope.

With the craftsmanship of my eldest sister, the braised pork made of fresh meat must be delicious, but the braised pork made of bacon, can it be authentic braised pork?It definitely doesn't taste right.

The bacon cured by ordinary people in Kyoto is not the kind of smoked bacon, which is too laborious.

Every household is just a catty and a half catty of meat, as long as it can be guaranteed that it will not go bad for ten days and a half month, that's fine.So the method is very simple, that is, rub it with salt, put it in a jar, and take it out and cut it with a knife when you use it.

The bacon marinated in this way is okay if the time is short, but if the time is long, the taste is too strong, and Yue Wenxuan doesn't like it.

Yue Wenjing agreed and walked towards the kitchen.When she turned her back and curled her lips, she felt that the quarrel with her mother-in-law today was really meaningless.

If his second brother came to the door empty-handed, he would definitely not be treated like this, even if the second brother had the status of a cadre, it would not matter.With the old lady's stinginess, not to mention other things, such as tea and braised pork are not specified.

She fought hard for a long time, but it was all false, and the old lady didn't care at all.It has to be a real benefit to make the old lady treat her differently.
