Chapter 18 Double Grab
"We'll talk about this later. I'll help you put it away first." Mrs. Ji took out a clay pot, put two small yellow croakers in, and then hid them again.

The pork Shen Ruoqing brought was not small, weighing about 3 kilograms. Mrs. Ji cut half of it to make braised pork, and marinated the other half with salt to eat later.

"It would be nice if there was a refrigerator at this time." Shen Ruoqing muttered.

Mrs. Ji cooked the food herself, while Shen Ruoqing helped.

After a while, the fragrant braised pork came out of the pot.

"Why are you eating meat again today? Where did this meat come from?" Shen Xiangnan said. Normally, the only time he can eat meat is during the Chinese New Year. How many times have he eaten meat this month?The leaders of the commune cannot eat like this!
"Eat what you have, it's good to have some. There's so much nonsense." Mrs. Ji rolled her eyes at her son.

"This meat must have been brought back by the Fourth Brother, right? It's better to live in the city, unlike in the countryside where we can only share some meat during the New Year." Shen Xiangdong sighed.

Mrs. Ji wanted to shout loudly that her sweet baby had brought this back, and her sweet baby was really capable.But in the end he remained silent.Thinking of all of them being so mean-spirited, I usually blame myself for being partial to Guobao. How many times has Guobao taken back meat?
Except for Shen Ruoqing, everyone else's staple food is still acorn noodles.Shen Ruoqing mentioned this point. She had brought so much rice and flour, and she should let everyone improve the food, but Mrs. Ji ruthlessly suppressed it.

In the words of Mrs. Ji, those good grains are reserved for double grabbing. There are still more than ten days before double grabbing. At that time, the sales force is strong and people want to eat good food. Now it is no year and no festival. , it would be good to have meat to eat.

The days passed day by day, and the day came for the double grab.

Double grab, this is the most important time for the team, and it is also the time that everyone looks forward to most.

Of course, Shen Ruoqing has only heard of double harvesting. Double harvesting is to harvest the early rice in July and then quickly plant the second crop of rice. It requires continuous high-intensity work for more than 20 days. If it is late, the harvest will be reduced or even eliminated. Adults, children, the elderly, and pregnant women Everyone came on stage together, the children followed the adults to thresh the grain and pick up the ears, the seven or eight-year-old children followed the adults to thresh the grain and pick up the grain handles, the older children threshed the rice and so on.Elderly people and pregnant women also have their own things to do.

But even if Wang, a pregnant woman, had to participate in the double robbery, Shen Ruoqing didn't have to go.Of course, since there was no need to go, Shen Ruoqing would not offer to go.

The whole family was mobilized, and the heavy burden of cooking fell on Shen Ruoqing.

There was no one at home, so Shen Ruoqing let go.Oil, sugar, and various spices were put down as if they were free of charge. Now is the time when oil and water are needed, and Mrs. Ji probably won't say anything.Shen Ruoqing directly simmered a large pot of rice, stewed rabbit meat, scrambled eggs and shredded potatoes, and mixed in a cucumber.

"I didn't expect my little sister's cooking to be so delicious. If I could eat my little sister's food every day, I would be willing to eat it every day." Shen Xiangxi laughed and provoked Mrs. Ji to hit her.

"You want to exhaust your sister to death! You want to eat every day! I won't exhaust you to death! Is your sister born to cook for you?"

"It's delicious. If I put so much oil, it would definitely be delicious." Mrs. Wang glanced at the oily dishes with a distressed look on her face. Although she really wanted to make sure that everyone's stomachs were full of oil and water at this time, her sister-in-law said There are too many, right?
Shen Yue was almost exhausted at this time. She was so angry that she didn't eat rabbit meat last time because the smell was so delicious. She didn't expect that her sister-in-law would catch rabbit again this time, and the smell this time was even worse than last time.She looked at it with a confused look on her face. Everyone was almost snatching away the rabbit meat.

"Da Ya, don't you want to eat?" Shen Xiangdong noticed his daughter.

"Dad, I told you, don't call me Daya, call me by my name." After Shen Yue went to elementary school, she hated being called Daya because there were too many girls in the brigade who called her Daya.

"Isn't it called getting used to it after so many years?" Shen Xiangdong chuckled, "If you don't eat meat, just eat more potatoes."

Shen Yue had just made up her mind to try rabbit meat, but her biological father said something like this, which made her embarrassed to put down her chopsticks.He could only watch helplessly as the last piece of rabbit meat entered Wang's mouth.

"I know Da Ya, ah no, Yueyue feels sorry for my little brother in my belly and wants him to eat more meat." Mrs. Wang touched her belly with satisfaction. She had eaten a lot of meat today.

This made Shen Yue almost furious, but there was nothing she could do.What Shen Yue didn't expect was that all Shen Ruoqing cooked was rabbit meat for several days.

In the end, Shen Yue bit the cute rabbit with tears in her eyes.

The moment she had it in her mouth, Shen Yue thought to herself, if she had known she would not be so stubborn, she would have missed several meals of such delicious food!My sister-in-law must have done it on purpose!

Shen Ruoqing really didn't mean it. Who made rabbit meat much cheaper than chicken?

"You guys do a good job. When you're done, I'll buy you some popsicles."

During the double rush, there are often bicycle sellers selling popsicles. There are very few types of popsicles at this time, such as bean paste popsicles and banana popsicles, which cost five cents each. At this time, people are still willing to deduct some money to buy one for their children. Popsicle, for encouragement and praise.

A five-cent popsicle is nothing to Shen Ruoqing.

"Sister-in-law, you are the best!" Shen Xue was the first to cheer. Over the past few days, she has become Shen Ruoqing's number one fan.

"You are the most generous." Mrs. Ji glared at Shen Ruoqing.

"I'll buy it for Mom too. Everyone has it. I'll treat you."

"Just give it to a few little ones. I won't eat that cold food because you can't hide the money in your pocket." Mrs. Ji refused to take it.

But Shen Ruoqing still bought a popsicle for everyone in the family to try.

The money has been spent, so you can’t stop eating it, right?
Mrs. Ji glared at Shen Ruoqing angrily again, and carefully peeled off the popsicle paper. A sweet mist mixed with a hint of coolness suddenly penetrated into her nostrils, she bit it down, held it in her mouth and waited for it to slowly melt. After swallowing it little by little, I suddenly felt very comfortable all over my body.

Shen Yun and Shen Xue didn't even let go of the residue on the popsicle paper.

Being used to eating all kinds of modern ice cream, Shen Ruoqing felt that this popsicle had no taste.

Suddenly, there was a loud crack in the sky, and everyone immediately finished eating the popsicles and ran out.

They had to quickly collect the rice that had been spread out on the rice bed in the morning, otherwise the rice would germinate and become moldy after being soaked by the rain, and their work in the first half of the year would have been in vain.

Shen Ruoqing also quickly went out to help.

"Hurry up and ball up the rice. Where's the plastic film? Is there not enough plastic film?"

All of a sudden, there were all kinds of furious noises.
