Hello, I'm He Yuzhu

Chapter 282 Dashilan meets Meng Bomei by chance (subscribe)

The next day.

In the early morning, Li Hongjun got up to buy breakfast, while Chen Jinfeng cooked porridge and eggs at home.

The favorites of men in Sijiu City are deep-fried ghosts (fried dough sticks), crispy burnt rings, and sesame biscuits. Of course, the prices in this period are also extremely cheap, and sesame biscuits cost three cents a piece.

Li Hongjun bought everything.

After breakfast, Li Gui asked Li Hongjun to take a day's leave to take his aunt, Dashuan and Ershuan out for a stroll, and Chen Jinfeng also gave money generously once in a while.

Because her younger sister Li Hongxia was on the day shift, Li Chunxia stayed at home to watch Yuanyuan, and Li Hongjun took Da Shuan, Er Shuan, and Miss Xiaomei out for a walk.

From Baishun Hutong, the four walked along the street for about one kilometer to the Dashilan under Zhengyangmen, which is considered the most lively place.

Many people in Dashilan live with walking sticks and carry birdcages, which is also a major feature. There are also time-honored Neiliansheng and Tongrentang.

"Red Army······"

Li Hongjun was leading Dashuan and Ershuan in front, and Feng Xiaomei was walking in the crowded street when he was startled by a sudden shout.

why?

Because this voice is very familiar.

Turning around, she revealed a smile uglier than crying: "Bomei!"

Meng Bomei was surprised to see him, and walked forward happily, but when she saw a beauty who was more beautiful than her, her face was drawn long.

Although Feng Xiaomei's clothes are not as good as Meng Bomei's, but her figure and face completely blown Meng Bomei's eyes.

"Who is she?"

Meng Bomei changed her tone in an instant, with a questioning expression on her face, and it immediately turned from sunny to cloudy.

Li Hongjun felt guilty, and quickly explained: "Let me introduce you, this is the eldest brother, the second brother, and Miss Xiaomei from my aunt's family in the country!"

Upon hearing that they were relatives, Meng Bomei's face-changing speed was unparalleled.

"So it's Big Brother, Second Brother, Miss Xiaomei!"

"I'm a friend of the Red Army, you can just call me Bomei!"

For Meng Bomei's sudden appearance, Da Shuan and Er Shuan were a little confused, but Feng Xiaomei, who had a delicate mind, understood everything from Meng Bomei's hostile eyes just now.

"Bomei, you came to Dashilan so early?"

"Isn't this going to the Tan family to learn opera?"

Li Hongjun was worried about how to send her away, so he said quickly: "Then you go, I will take them to Tiananmen again!"

Meng Bomei was a little reluctant to let Li Hongjun leave, she hadn't played happily with Li Hongjun for a long time.

On the contrary, Li Hongjun wanted to get rid of Meng Bomei as soon as possible. This is an aunt who cannot be offended. Also, why did he feel guilty just now? It was all the fault of his predecessor.

"Red Army, why don't I come with you and treat your relatives to dinner at noon?"

"No, really no, my aunt is still at home, we have to go back in a while!"

After finally getting rid of Meng Bomei, in order to hide his embarrassment, Li Hongjun took Dashuan, Ershuan, and Feng Xiaomei away from Dashilan.

The four of them walked all the way for more than ten minutes to Tiananmen Square. On the way, Li Hongjun always felt that the three of them looked like brothers and sisters, always looking at him with strange eyes.

At noon, when going back, Li Hongjun took two tricycles, and he couldn't walk anymore.

After returning home, Li Gui and Chen Jinfeng came back just as they were preparing to wash the rice for cooking.

After lunch, there is nothing to do in the cafeteria, as long as Li Gui and Chen Jinfeng don't miss cooking for the factory leaders and Soviet engineers on duty at night.

He took out a strip of bacon from the barn, fried cabbage with bacon, smooth tofu, shredded potatoes with vinegar, and scrambled eggs with green onions.

During the meal, Chen Jinfeng continued to pick up food for Miss Xiaomei, while Li Gui called her sister and nephew to eat hard.

After dinner, Chen Jinfeng wanted to withdraw money, but Li Hongjun called his mother aside.

"Mom, take Da Shuan, Er Shuan, and Miss Xiaomei to the department store to buy some cloth!"

"They will definitely marry a wife when they go back. Let them each make a new suit, and then buy cloth for my aunt and Miss Xiaomei to make a double-breasted Lenin suit."

Chen Jinfeng rolled his eyes at him: "A foot of cloth costs 3 cents, you prodigal son!"

"Mom, when Dashuan and Ershuan get married, our family won't give anything else. We'll make new clothes for their family. Think about it, according to my father's temper, we may have to give more expensive ones. Which one is suitable?"

"Besides, when they wear new clothes, when people in the village ask, they have to say that my dad bought them, and when we go back to the countryside, will our faces be bright?"

Chen Jinfeng nodded, admitting that what his son said made sense.

"Okay, I'll take them with me!"

"In the evening, I have to treat your aunt and the others well. You go to the vegetable market to buy more meat in the afternoon, so that they can have a good meal!"

Chen Jinfeng wanted to give him money, but Li Hongjun refused.

"Mom, I'm rich, you forgot that I went to make rice noodles for Song Laokou, and he gave me 40 yuan?"

Chen Jinfeng really forgot about this: "I forgot if you didn't mention it, kid. Why didn't you take the initiative to hand in the money when you came back?"

"My mother, I'm such an adult, can't you leave some pocket money in my pocket?"

"Which big man do you think goes out without money in his pocket?"

In other words, Chen Jinfeng said that as long as he doesn't go out to eat, drink and gamble like before, she will be satisfied.

Chen Jinfeng took the two bodyguards, Da Shuan and Er Shuan, as well as Feng Xiaomei, on the grounds that he was afraid of being robbed when withdrawing the money.

When they came back, there were big and small bags.

Feng Xiaomei came to Li Chunxia: "Mother, my aunt bought cotton cloth for our family and wants to make new clothes for us!"

Li Chunxia complained: "Jinfeng, you spend money recklessly, how much does it cost to make a suit of clothes?"

Chen Jinfeng smiled and said, "It's okay, we are all family!"

Signaling Li Chunxia with his eyes, the Red Army joked with the younger sister: "I will kiss more in the future, and I am willing to spend any money!"

"The Red Army said that when his elder brother and second elder brother get married, they must wear new clothes, and it will also save face for his aunt!"

Li Chunxia touched the fabric: "That's right, this navy blue is good, it's anti-dirty..."

In the afternoon, Li Gui and Chen Jinfeng stayed at home until three o'clock and then returned to the factory. Before leaving, they took the fabric to the tailor shop in the alley, so that they could hurry up and make it tomorrow.

Li Hongjun also left, talking about going to the vegetable market, but actually just wandering around for a while.

From the portable space, he took out chicken, fish, meat and eggs, a bottle of sesame oil, and a can of sesame paste.However, he withdrew the trademark.

Taking time, after four o'clock, Li Hongjun started to light the fire, clean the pot, and was ready to show off.

Sitting on the kang, Li Hongxia teased Yuanyuan, and turned to her three children: "Go and see and help the Red Army with work, especially Xiaomei, you will be the Red Army's wife in the future, you must work hard!"

In the outhouse, Li Hongjun is cutting pork, ready to make braised pork.

Feng Xiaomei squatted on the ground to add firewood to the stove pit, while Da Shuan and Er Shuan stood aside, at a loss.

Li Hongjun took out a cigarette from his pocket: "Brother Dashuan, Brother Ershuan, you go into the house to smoke, I can do it myself, and the place can't stand so many people!"

Da Shuan and Er Shuan were driven back, but Xiao Mei stayed behind.

Li Chunxia didn't say anything, instead she let out a knowing smile, the fact that the Red Army didn't catch up with Xiaomei meant that he didn't hate Xiaomei...
In fact, it's not true, the main reason is that with Xiaomei helping him add firewood, he can concentrate on cooking.

Braised carp in braised sauce, chicken stewed with mushrooms (brought by Li Chunxia), braised pork stewed in potatoes, and a pot full of steamed egg custard.

There is no vegetarian dish, two stewed fish, two small chickens, and five catties of braised pork. I am afraid that they will be embarrassed to eat it. In order for them to open their bellies, this meal is almost half of a worker's price at the market price. monthly salary.

Pork is 7 cents a catty, five catties is 3.5 yuan, eggs are 5 cents a catty, carp is 3 cents a catty, and he doesn’t know the weight of two chickens, but one chicken is at least three or four catties. There are two bottles of Daqu wine.

Although Li Chunxia talked about extravagance and waste, she was beautiful in her heart. After all, her beloved brother valued her most, so she couldn't be happy.
