Siheyuan starts from a better life

Chapter 497, Notice
After leaving the hospital gate, Jiang Yan wanted to help Jiang Sirui down the stairs like a loser.

Jiang Sirui hit him and said angrily: "It's only been a month, why are you so nervous!"

Jiang Yan smiled disapprovingly when he heard this.

"Didn't the doctor say that? It's better to be careful. The first three months are more dangerous." After Jiang Yan finished speaking, he looked at the bicycle parked there.

"I'll return the bike later. It's not safe to sit on. I'll let Xiao Wei drive you to and from get off work."

Jiang Yan's bicycle was one that his secretary Xiao Gong picked up from the logistics department after he came to work. Jiang Yan felt it was a bit too conspicuous when driving in the factory, so he got one and used it for commuting to get off work.This would make me dislike it.

"It's not as exaggerated as what you said. I won't let you get Qianfei's paycheck. People walk to and from get off work. We will also walk from now on."

"Okay, just walk. I'll listen to you. I'll listen to you." Jiang Yan said quickly.

"Do you need to send a telegram to grandma?" Jiang Sirui said.

"Okay, this is a good thing. Telling grandma will also make her happy. I will send a telegram to grandma later." Jiang Yan said excitedly.

"You didn't eat much just now. Whatever you want to eat later, I'll make it for you."

Everyone knows that Jiang Yan can cook. When Jiang Yan has time and interest, he will go to the kitchen and copy a few dishes. In his previous life, eating takeout was a big expense for a working-class person like him. He ate in the cafeteria at noon. I go back and cook for myself in the evening. The food I cook is clean and hygienic, and I can enjoy it morning and night.

In my previous life, there shouldn’t be too many short videos introducing food on various platforms. In addition, the various seasonings and semi-finished products in the supermarket are quite complete. With these things, my cooking skills will not be too bad, but Back here after time travel, Jiang Yan often watched Liu Zihe and He Yuzhu cooking when he was free, and kept all kinds of secret seasonings from Jiang Yan, so his cooking skills will not be much worse in this life. At that time, there were a large number of noodles and various seasonings in the kitchen on the second floor and the supermarket on the first floor, so Jiang Yan couldn't be bothered by this.

When he got home, he settled Jiang Sirui first, peeled an apple for her to cushion her stomach, and then Jiang Yan started cooking. Of course, considering Jiang Sirui's current situation, the meals Jiang Yan cooked were always light. Mainly, the most difficult dish is ginseng chicken soup. The chicken is an authentic free-range chicken, the ginseng is an understory ginseng from a farm, and there are many authentic wild ginsengs in Jiangyan. There are also a few that are hundreds of years old. However, Jiang Yan still understands this truth.

These forest ginsengs were given to me by others after I came here to work. Forest ginseng is not a valuable thing here. Otherwise, it would cost several kilograms, which can be eaten in stir-fries. In order for Jiang Sirui to drink more chicken soup. , Jiang Yan also deliberately used a spoon to skim out the cooked chicken fat, and Jiang Yan secretly sucked out the remaining scattered oil with oil-absorbing paper.

Zucchini is called horned melon here in the Northeast. When we were cooking just now, my wife said she wanted to eat steamed buns. After simmering chicken soup, Jiang Yan went directly to the supply and marketing cooperative to buy vegetables. When he went in, he found that horned melon was good, so he bought some. Using horned melon and egg vermicelli as fillings, the steamed buns are not greasy and are the most refreshing.

The noodles used to make the buns were not Erhe noodles. Jiang Yan just used pure white noodles and rationed enough every month. It was so generous.

I made several pots of steamed buns in a row, using ten kilograms of flour alone.

"Eat slowly and drink some chicken soup." Looking at Jiang Sirui who was eating buns by his pot, Jiang Yan could only go and give her a bowl of chicken soup that had been stewed.

"These buns are so delicious, I like to eat them. Can you make me fried cabbage buns later?" Jiang Sirui ate the buns and spoke in a vague tone, with a bit of a coquettish tone.

"Okay, as long as you like to eat, I will make them for you. Come sit on the table and eat them. I will give some of these buns to Xiao Wei and Xiao Gong." After Jiang Yan finished speaking, he carried a dozen buns out of the room. He knocked on the door of the room opposite.

"Leader, what are you doing?" Xiao Gong opened the door and looked a little surprised at the steaming buns in Jiang Yan's hand. "Your sister-in-law wants to eat steamed buns. I made her some steamed buns with zucchini. Bring some for you." Jiang Yan said and handed the plate directly to Xiao Gong.

Xiao Gong smelled the aroma of the buns and swallowed subconsciously.

"Boss, this is not appropriate. You should give it to your sister-in-law!" Xiao Gong said.

"Then what are you doing with the ink? Just take it if you are told, just a few buns." Jiang Yan criticized Xiao Gong with a straight face, and Xiao Gong could only accept the buns that Jiang Yan sent.

"Find time this afternoon to take me to the telegraph office to send a telegram." Jiang Yan then said.

"Boss, tell me what you want to send, and I'll send it in the afternoon."

Jiang Yan thought about it and realized that it was right. Going out on his own required all kinds of procedures. It was too troublesome. It would be easier for Xiao Gong to go there.

"Okay, thank you for your hard work." After saying this, Jiang Yan thought about it in his heart and then said: "Send the telegram to Xu Damao and ask him to forward it to my grandma. Just send the four words "pregnant, well". That’s it.”

Sending a telegram in this era was quite a luxury. One word cost 8 cents. You must know that prices were quite low during this period. Cabbage was only a cent a pound. Breakfast in the morning cost 1 dime for 2 fried dough sticks and 2 soybean milk. A bowl of cents, a lot of vegetables for 5 cents, peach cakes for 0, 48 yuan a pound in the store, 1 fruit candies for 12 cent, milk candies are more expensive, 3 cents each, pineapple popsicles 3 It costs 4 cents for a mung bean and 5 cents for milk.

Sending an ordinary letter only costs two cents, and a four-character telegram costs more than 3 cents, which is quite expensive.

Obviously, Xiao Gong didn't take the money matter seriously, and was quite surprised by what Jiang Yan said.

"Boss, my sister-in-law is pregnant."

Pregnancy was a good thing, and Jiang Yan didn't intend to hide it, so he told Xiao Gong directly.

"Sister-in-law is pregnant. Congratulations from the leader. This is a good thing. If you need to buy something, just tell me and I will find a way." After Xiao Gong learned about the situation, he quickly congratulated Jiang Yan and then spoke.

"Thank you, Xiao Gong. When you come back and pass by this Shengjing joint venture, you can buy more milk powder, beef jerky and other snacks, as well as rice and flour." After Jiang Yan finished speaking, he thought for a while, "Milk powder and beef jerky are the same. It’s ten kilograms, and you can buy it after you finish it. It’s a hundred kilograms of rice and flour, and you can eat it slowly. You can also buy some deer antlers and ginseng, oh! Yes, forest ginseng is also fine. I have to give it to your sister-in-law. repair."

Shengjing Associates was the second largest department store in the country at the time.It was once located in what is now Zhongxing, Taiyuan Street. The unique geographical location made the joint venture quickly become the first choice for shopping for people in Shengjing at that time. Since it was relatively close to Inner Mongolia, there was no shortage of things like milk powder and beef jerky, but these things Most of them are produced by herdsmen themselves. The only thing Jiang Yan has seen in this era is Red Star brand milk powder.

After Jiang Yan finished speaking, he took out the corresponding receipt from his pocket and handed it to Xiao Gong. Xiao Gong took it without any hesitation.

In the two months since he came here, Jiang Yan took advantage of his spare time to go to the supply and marketing cooperative in the factory and bought a lot of good things from people who could come to the factory to sell goods. Since Xiao Gong and Xiao Gong were there most of the time, Xiao Wei accompanied him, and Jiang Yan didn't buy too much each time. However, after a little added up, Jiang Yan still added some things to the space.
