Siheyuan: After being reincarnated as a master's daughter

Chapter 14 Going to Xu Damao's House to Buy Chicken

Yi Jiale and his friends played hide-and-seek for a long time before being called home by their mother for lunch!

The aunt first brought a portion to the deaf old lady, so that she didn't have to work hard on her own, and then came back for the mother and daughter to eat together.

The aunt didn't cook anything today. She just fried some cabbage, steamed two corn steamed buns, a white flour bun, and boiled an egg for Yi Jiale and started eating! It's not a festival, so there's no need to eat too well. In this era, it's good enough to have enough to eat! ! Although Lao Yi has a high salary, he needs tickets for things! ! Food tickets are really hard to get. If Lao Yi goes to the black market and is caught, he will have to go to jail, and the family of three will be finished! ! I can only think of other ways to get some meat for my daughter!

It seems that Xu Damao went to the countryside to show a movie, and was given two chickens by someone. They are both big roosters. The weather is hot this month, not cold, so the hens are kept for laying eggs! ! I will go ask Damao’s wife if she wants to sell the “chickens”!

Although the aunt had mixed feelings in her heart, she felt something when she saw her daughter eating so adorably and seriously. Her eyes were full of her little daughter! If the aunt were in modern times, she would think of this word and her nose would bleed! !

Yi Jiale was eating the white flour buns with great care, he couldn’t let them go to waste. These were the white flour buns that neither his parents ate often!! Yi Jiale had been eating by comparison these past two days, his parents didn’t eat as well as he did, the children in the courtyard didn’t eat as well as he did, not to mention that there were children outside who were starving to death!! He didn’t have the face to dislike food!! Anyone who had been to this era knew how precious food was!!

"Tuanzi, come with mom to your sister-in-law Damao's house in the middle courtyard and watch the big rooster. Do you want to go?"

Yi Jiale quickly swallowed the steamed bun in his hand and said enthusiastically: "Go!!"

In the Intermediate Court, since the workers in the steel rolling mill were still at work and Xu Damao had gone to the countryside, Lou Xiao'e was the only one eating at Xu Damao's house.

The aunt took Yi Jiale to the door of Xu Damao's house with a ball of yarn and knitting needles, and saw Lou Xiao'e eating lunch with the door open. She said directly: "Xiao'e! Are you eating!!"

"Yes, you are here, Auntie! Lou Xiao'e stood up and greeted her: Come and sit down, have you eaten? Come and have something with Tuanzi!!" After saying that, she was ready to stand up and get the chopsticks!

Seeing Lou Xiao'e being so polite, the auntie felt a little embarrassed and went over to hold Lou Xiao'e's arm and advised: "We, mother and daughter, have already eaten. We just wanted to come over to play with you. If we knew you hadn't finished your meal, we wouldn't have come so early!!"

"It's okay, Auntie, just bring the dumplings over. I'll be done eating soon. Wait for me!" After saying that, Lou Xiao'e quickly finished the steamed bun in her hand and washed the dishes.

When Lou Xiao'e saw an old lady holding wool and knitting tools, she knew that she was coming over to knit a sweater together, so she took out her knitting bag.

"Auntie, who are you knitting for?"

"Hey, I'm knitting for my daughter Tuanzi. Autumn is coming soon, and I want to finish knitting for her first, so that when the weather suddenly turns cold, I won't have to rush. Her father is not in a hurry. I'll finish knitting for her first, and then for her father!!"

Lou Xiao'e reminded, "Auntie, you should knit something bigger. Children grow fast. If the weather gets cold, they won't be able to wear it if you knit something smaller!"

The lady replied while moving her hands: "I think so too."

Lou Xiao'e saw Yi Jiale, who was standing alone at the door watching the rooster with great interest, so she went to the inner room to find some snacks and gave them to Yi Jiale. Yi Jiale didn't want to eat other people's food, but he couldn't refuse, so he just took a few pieces of candy in his hand. He refused to eat the rest no matter what, so Lou Xiao'e had to give up.

An auntie saw her daughter looking at the rooster for a while and felt bored. She said, "Go out and play. It's so hot this afternoon. Adults are afraid that children will get heat stroke, so they keep them at home for a nap!" So she let Yi Jiale go home for a nap and stop running around!

When Lou Xiao'e heard what the aunt said, she was immediately unhappy: "Aunt, just let Tuanzi sleep here. My bed is so wide, how much space can a little kid like her take up? When we knit, we should keep our voices down so as not to disturb her. Otherwise, are you sure she can sleep in the backyard? Although no one can enter the backyard, she is only three years old, what if she gets bumped into something while sleeping!"

The aunt thought the same and felt worried, and Lou Xiao'e was so sincere, so she let Yi Jiale take off his shoes and sleep on Lou Xiao'e's bed. Lou Xiao'e found a small quilt to cover Yi Jiale's belly.

Yi Jiale also had the body of a child who liked to sleep. He lay down on the kang, listened to the voices of his sister-in-law and mother, and fell asleep unknowingly.

When Auntie Yi and Lou Xiao'e saw that Yi Jiale was fast asleep, they looked at each other, laughed, and lowered their voices to chat in a low voice.

After knitting for a while, the aunt talked to Lou Xiao'e about the rooster. "Ask Lou Xiao'e if her family is willing to sell it. I want to buy a rooster for my daughter!"

When Lou Xiao'e heard that the rooster was for Tuanzi, she said, "Auntie, just take it. There are two roosters anyway, and each of us can have one. You don't have to pay for it. I like Tuanzi very much, and I'd like to give it to her!"

"That won't work either. Ezi, listen to me. One thing is one thing. Last time, it was Tuanzi's birthday and you gave her a pair of leather shoes. We didn't say anything, but that was a birthday. This is different. You have to give it to her! I'll give you whatever the ticket price is on the market!"

Lou Xiaoe insisted on not asking for money, and the two of them quarreled for a while, almost waking up Yi Jiale. In the end, the two sides reached a tie. The big rooster that cost two yuan in the market was sold to the old lady for one yuan and fifty cents!! The old lady also paid directly on the spot!!

After an hour or two, Yi Jiale woke up, and then Lou Xiaoe brought out a rooster. Since Aunt Yi was holding a knitting bag and had to lead Yi Jiale, Lou Xiaoe helped to carry the rooster to Yi's house and then went home...
