The old man was very happy.

"Grandpa, how could you bear to take out Moutai today?" Chen Jianguo was a restless person. He poured half a glass of wine and filled it up for himself, which made the old man frown and want to slap him.

"Hmph, Xiaofeng changed three bottles."

So that's it!

I was wondering why the stingy guy was plucked.

Chen Jianguo was overjoyed and said, "Xiaofeng, remember to leave me a bottle next time."

"Don't even think about it. This is for soaking tiger bones." The old man said mercilessly, "If you get married, I'll give you one or two to taste it."

Chen Jianjun's eyes lit up a little.

Tiger bone wine, good stuff!

Chen Jianguo asked, "Dad, are you sure it's okay to mail tiger bones?"

Nowadays, mailing items has very high requirements, and different places have different policies.

For example, in the Northeast, the weight of grain cannot exceed one kilogram, and a letter of introduction from the Provincial Health Department is required to mail medicines to prevent speculation and infringement of public interests.

Tiger bones are also medicines, with no weight limit, but there are restrictions on the type of items.

The old man smiled slyly and said, "I am a retired Chinese medicine doctor. I buy some cow bones and grind them into powder for myself. What's the problem?"

Uh, no problem!

Chen Jianguo nodded.

The elderly are treated preferentially by society, and the old Red Army is treated especially preferentially.

The two children ate a big steamed bun and stopped eating, waiting to eat the crab roe soup dumplings.

Especially Chen Li, who kept patting her belly, as if to promote digestion.

Chen Hao brought his homework book to the kitchen and asked his father how to do it from time to time.

The old man, Chen Jianjun, and Chen Jianguo did not eat steamed buns either, but drank wine and ate vegetables, obviously waiting to eat crab soup dumplings.

"One plus one equals one, one plus two equals two. Two plus two equals four..."

Zhou Qing was reciting the multiplication formula.

She had never been to school, nor had she learned mathematics. She could do simple addition and subtraction, but she was not proficient in multiplication.

Originally, according to the requirements of the Red Star purchaser, the diploma was at least elementary school graduation, and she was welcomed in as a special talent.

There were no big requirements, as long as she paid enough meat every month.

But she didn't want to be laughed at, so she started learning mathematics at home.

Sha Zhu came over after eating and asked when to invite Teacher Ran to be a tutor.

"Uncle Jianjun, the tutoring must be arranged early, and the tutoring should be done early to improve the grades early."

Chen Hao, who was waiting for the meat buns to be cooked in the kitchen, was puzzled.

Tutoring, for whom?

He glanced at Chen Feng and thought it couldn't be his elder brother. He was so smart, why would he need extra lessons?

Could it be his younger sister?

The little girl was lying in Chen Feng's arms, listening to his stories.

That's impossible, she's too young!

After looking around, he suddenly thought of himself.

Could it be! ! !

Chen Hao felt something was wrong.

Why should your happiness be sacrificed for my happiness!

But he didn't dare to say it.

After all, his parents scolded him a lot because of his grades.

What if he objects now and doesn't give him meat buns to eat later?

One word: endure!

After eating the buns, come and strongly protest!

Zhou Qing also thought it would be best to do it sooner rather than later, and said, "Okay, I'll ask Teacher Ran tomorrow to see if it's possible."

"Auntie, it must be possible!"

Sha Zhu slapped his thigh hard and said, "Doesn't she like tofu fish? I'll come here to cook a pot tomorrow morning, and you can bring it to her. I guarantee she'll agree to it immediately and want to eat it again."

"That's fine, meat buns with fish soup, and 3 yuan per month for tutoring." Zhou Qing looked at Chen Hao with a bitter face and said with a smile.

"3 yuan is too little," Sha Zhu said.

Chen Jianjun said, "Zhu Zi, you haven't married yet, and you're thinking about her dowry?"

"How can that be? I'm just afraid that she won't agree?" Sha Zhu thought 3 yuan was too little, but it was a month's tutoring fee, not a semester or a year, otherwise he could advance one or two yuan.

Now the tutoring fee for students in a semester is only one yuan, and in some rural areas it's only a few cents.

Yan Bugui from their compound used to charge only 5 yuan for private tutoring a month, and Old Yan has been teaching for more than ten years, which is not comparable to a new teacher like Ran.

The buns were made at around 6 o'clock, and they were not ready until after 10 o'clock.

The power outage was a little early tonight, and it was cut off before 7 o'clock. The Chen family took out the kerosene lamp once.

As soon as the boiler was turned on, the boiling water mist spread, and the kitchen was filled with a rich aroma.

Chen Li, who was obviously dozing off, woke up.

"Come, try it."

Shazhu used

He picked up one with chopsticks and gave it to Zhou Qing.

Chen Hao looked at him with contempt.

Shameless!

"Brother Zhuzi, give me one!"

"I want one too!" Chen Li said anxiously.

Chen Jianjun took four first and sent them to the old man's room.

When he came back, he saw Zhou Qing crying.

"What's wrong? Why are you crying?"

"Mom said it was delicious!" Chen Li said coquettishly.

Chen Hao was eating a lot, his mouth was full, and he couldn't speak at all. The remaining half of the bun in his hand was steaming.

Fortunately, it was late October and the temperature dropped quickly at night, otherwise it would be impossible to eat the freshly baked buns.

"Brother Jun, try it quickly, it's better than the crab roe soup buns you treated me to that year."

Zhou Qing took most of the bun and sent it to Chen Jianjun's mouth.

Chen Jianjun took a light bite, and everyone in the room immediately felt sour.

Sha Zhu took two buns and said, "It's too late, I'll go back and eat."

He couldn't bear it any longer. He wanted to marry a wife right now and feed her good food every day.

Chen Jianguo looked at the meat buns and took out a lunch box to put five of them in.

"Brother, you guys eat them. I have a friend who also likes to eat them. I'll bring some to her."

After that, the two grown men left the house together.

Chen Feng didn't want to eat dog food either, so he took three buns and went back to the house.

Chen Hao and Chen Li were reluctant to leave unless they were full.

The next morning, Sha Zhu came early.

First, he heated up the meat buns from last night, and then made tofu fish. He wanted to give him three yuan for this, but Zhou Qing refused to accept it.

Then Zhou Qing rode a bicycle and took Chen Hao to Teacher Ran's house.

Chen Feng packed up half of the remaining buns.

"Grandpa, I'm going to grandpa's house."

The old man asked, "Are you going to ride a bicycle?"

"Yes, I can ride very fast, it will take at most seven or eight hours." Chen Feng replied.

The old man thought about Chen Feng's previous speed up the mountain and nodded.

This place is a bit far from Tanggu, but it really won't take Chen Feng too long to ride there.

"If the car breaks down, rent a donkey or a horse carriage, don't be reluctant to spend money."

"Also, bring a gun. If you meet someone who doesn't have eyes and can't be defeated, just use a gun. If something happens, grandpa will help you."

"Well, I know."

Chen Feng glanced at the little girl and said, "There are fruits, canned food, and eggs in the cabinet next to my bed. Remember to give them to Lily."

"Okay, we are not old and confused yet."

The old man smiled and said, "An egg every day, she is indispensable."
