Chapter 171 Smoked Bacon

As the number of people queuing in front decreased one by one, the number of people queuing behind Qin Xi and Qin He and his brother and sister increased one by one.

Those people were all dressed neatly, and Qin Xi didn't know how good the material was, but from their neat hair and clean cotton clothes, we could tell that their family conditions were not bad.

These people with spare money don't mind buying more meat for their families during the Chinese New Year to improve their food.

In addition, Qin Xi also saw Yang Jianhua from the educated youth spot. This person's qualifications are among the best in the educated youth spot. However, since he moved out of the educated youth spot, his interaction with other people has gradually decreased, and he has gotten closer to the villagers. getting closer.

And Tang Ying, she still has some money in her hand, so it's normal for him and He Yuan to pool some money together to buy some meat to improve the food for the New Year.

Fangzheng and Yunqing were also at the back of the queue. Today is a rare day. In a year, this is the only day when you can buy meat without a meat ticket.

What's more, the price of this meat is not expensive, only fifty cents a catty, although most of the meat in it contains a lot of bone, it is also very good.

Fangzheng's parents still miss their son who jumped in the queue in the countryside. The subsidy has not been cut off all these years, so he can still spend some money to buy meat.

However, it was not he who brought up the matter of buying meat today, it was Yun Qing who wanted to buy some meat to smoke bacon.

What she said to Fang Zheng was that this year was their first year of marriage, and there was no wine, and no two families got together to have a light meal. These juniors, they should smoke some bacon for the elderly at home, and talk about filial piety. I am grateful to my parents for their upbringing.

Regarding this point, Fangzheng agreed. He used to think that both his parents lived in the city, both of them had jobs, money tickets, and everything was needed, so there was no need to send anything back for them.

But Yunqing woke him up. His parents have always been kind to him. Now that he is old and has a family, he should be sensible. Sending bacon home is the first proof of his sensibleness.

It's not that Yun Qing doesn't have her own small thoughts, one is that she simply wants to send some bacon back to improve her natal family's life, at least so that her younger siblings can eat more meat during the Chinese New Year.

The second is to brush up the favorability of Fangzheng's parents. Among other things, they have sent Fangzheng subsidies for so many years, and Mao has never seen a single one of him. Now that he has married a daughter-in-law, there is even filial bacon sent back Yes, everyone would think that this is due to her, Yun Qing.

This is called killing three birds with one stone. As for these three things, she was simply greedy, and she had to save some to eat after making bacon!

Chen Dafa, who was the last one to divide the meat, did not leave immediately after getting the meat that belonged to his own family. Instead, he gave the last three pieces of lean meat to Butcher Chen: "Weigh it for me. I bought three pieces of meat."

"Chen Dafa, you are too good at taking advantage of this! You are too smart in your calculations."

"I still want to buy a piece of meat!" Butcher Chen said bluntly.

All the meat was shared by him. Of course, he knew the weight of these pieces of meat. This piece of meat weighed more than two catties at least, and three pieces equaled six to seven catties. This is all good meat, and the one without bones kind.

At this time, you can't be reserved. If you want to say it directly, otherwise Chen Dafa will take it all by himself. What an advantage he will take!
"Yeah! I don't want to eat alone, I want a piece!" The accountant who was keeping accounts at the side also put away his notebook at this time. If he was really reserved, there might not even be a piece of meat left in the end.

He is serious, but it doesn't mean he is stupid, as long as he spends money, he can take the meat with peace of mind.

Chen Dafa also knew that he couldn't deal with these two people. If these two people were determined not to sell them to him, no matter how capable he was, he would not be able to take the meat away.

But fortunately, there are three pieces of meat left, one piece for each person, and he can get at least two catties of good meat. This is the reason why he always ranks at the bottom every time he comes. I really think he is stupid!
If you don't take advantage of this kind of cheapness, don't take it for nothing, if you don't take advantage of it, don't take it. Those few people in front of him are the real big fools.

"Okay, let's share the meat with each other." As soon as Chen Dafa finished his sentence, Butcher Chen and the accountant immediately chose the piece of meat they wanted.

As for him, of course he can only choose the smallest piece left. He did this on purpose. If not, how could the two of them tolerate him doing this again and again, taking advantage of loopholes.

The three of them pocketed the three pieces of good meat in front of everyone, and they all paid for it and recorded it. Even if they were seen, so what?

Chen Dafa took his own meat away contentedly, and it was Qinxi and Qinhe's turn next.

Before, Qin Xi thought that it was possible for her to buy a piece of lean meat without bones, but now it seems that she is overthinking it!People divide the meat directly.

Even if there is no one named Chen Dafa, the butcher Chen and the accountant will round up these pieces of meat together.

As for them, the educated youths from outside can't hold their arms against their thighs, so there's no need to make others uncomfortable because of this, and find several enemies for themselves for no reason. If nothing happens, they will stay here for a few more years.

What's more, the locals and old educated youths in Chenhui Village didn't say anything. It was obvious that they were doing it out of habit, and everyone was used to it.

"What do you want?" Butcher Chen put down the sharp knife in his hand and picked up his machete.

This is his old buddy for many years. The wooden handle of this machete has already been made very shiny and smooth by him. As for the jet black color, it is definitely not a stain, it is blood, and it is infected by pig blood. Wooden handles turn black over time.

"I want a pig's head, four pig's trotters, a pig's belly, about two catties of pig's liver, and half a small rib."

The things Qin Xi wanted couldn't fit in her bamboo basket at all. The big pig's head was split in half by Butcher Chen, and Qin He carried two pig ears and took it away.

These things alone cost her 12 yuan and [-] cents. Although she felt distressed when paying, but seeing so much meat, she only had two words in her heart, it was worth it.

Of course, these 20 catties of meat are not just used here. The three brothers and sisters are not yet so extravagant. Qin Xi plans to marinate most of the meat and use it to smoke bacon, so that the meat can be eaten It's been several months.

Qin Xi's mouth is watering just thinking about waxed pig's ears, pig's face and ribs.
