Chapter 21 21. Food delivery at the brick factory
  After Pomegranate returned, she directly gave half of the pig's semen to Grandma Zhao. After all, her two brothers would live here for the next month. No matter what, she was breaking her promise. At first, she said that she was the only one who lived here.

Grandma Zhao also knew that this was a special situation. She looked at the pig water and green vegetables in her hand: "It doesn't matter. Just let your brothers live here without worries. There happens to be a small bed in the utility room that can accommodate people."

Shiliu breathed a sigh of relief when she heard this. She would stay here for at least two years. It would be bad if this matter affected Grandma Zhao's feelings towards her: "My two brothers will stay in the city for a month, no. Do you know how much a utility room costs per month?”

"It doesn't cost anything. The utility room is just a place to keep out the wind and rain. There are a bunch of things in it. I don't have the nerve to ask for money."

Shiliu didn't think so: "Brothers will settle the score, Grandma Zhao, we can't take advantage of you." A utility room costs 5 yuan a month. In her opinion, problems that can be solved with money are not problems. .

"Then give me a dollar, and I'll clean up the utility room right now." Grandma Zhao thought of the messy utility room and said quickly, "It's going to get cold soon. Do you want to take the opportunity to stock up on more coal?"

"Isn't it too early to stock up now, and I don't have any coal stamps in my hand -" Pomegranate is a little numb. In the countryside, she only burns firewood. She almost forgot that coal is burned in the city. It seems that she still needs time. Go to the fat man and exchange him for some coal stamps.

"Let's not talk about coal for now. You have to prepare a coal stove first." This thing is not easy to buy.

The trip to the black market seemed inevitable. Pomegranate got up and started cooking. By the time she finished, it was almost time to have lunch. Pomegranate quickly cooked two meat dishes - husband and wife's lungs and liver, and spicy fried chicken hearts. They filled two large lunch boxes, and then took out four large shepherd's purse steamed buns from the space. As for the meat steamed buns, I will eat them next time, otherwise they will be too good to eat. It’s easy for brothers to think too much.

"Hey, the little girl is here to deliver food to your brother."

"That's right. Uncle, you haven't gotten off work yet."

"Uncle, I'm on the day shift today. Okay, little girl, go quickly."

After hearing this, Pomegranate stopped staying and hurried away.

After the people left, the uncle sniffed vigorously: "Tsk, you can tell it's meat as soon as you smell it. The little girl is quite willing to give it up."

"Eldest brother, second brother, I've brought food." Pomegranate looked at the tired faces of the two of them and felt distressed: "Brother, you two haven't rested all morning, have you?"

Brother Shi chuckled: "I rested for a while in the middle. If I didn't rest, no one would be able to bear such high-intensity labor."

Brother Shi also followed up and said: "Working in the fields is actually the same, but now it's the same whether you do more or less. Everyone is just doing foreign work." The harvest in the fields is getting worse and worse.

Pomegranate really didn't know about this: "Isn't it a pity that I didn't go to work?"

Brother Shi: "It's a pity. When you are at home, your work is usually done in the first month." Pomegranate immediately felt ashamed. It was a shame that my mother could control her daughter-in-law. If this matter had happened in other families in the village, it would have been troublesome. I was so shocked that I thought I would bring some good things to my sisters-in-law next time I go home. Otherwise, if time goes by and my sisters-in-law rebel collectively, my mother will be in misery. I especially remember that two years ago, the old Qin family at the east end of the village made trouble because they loved their daughter, and Shiliu felt that she had to take a warning.

People in rural areas only have three melons and two dates in their hands, and they are all plotting against each other. Shiliu really can't stand it, and she feels that Qin Yiyi, the daughter of the Qin family, deliberately didn't like those things. After all, her husband is on active duty. officer. She said that the Qin family's brother and sister-in-law are really stupid. They only have the immediate interests in their eyes. With an officer brother-in-law with whom they have a good relationship, their children will definitely have an advantage over others if they want to be recruited into the army in the future. Those who serve as soldiers these days Quite popular.

The three brothers and sisters came to the cafeteria of the brick factory. Brother Shi laid out the meals one by one. When he opened the lunch box, he saw that there were two meat dishes. He was shocked and said with great distress: "Sister, we are here to make money. , but you can’t spend money randomly, just get some multigrain steamed buns.”

Brother Shi was both distressed and moved: "Yes, this is both meat and bone soup. How much does it cost?"

Shiliu is very clear about the psychology of her two brothers, but she just doesn't agree with it. She also plans to take the opportunity to give her two brothers a supplement: "Brother, you all do physical work. What can you do if you don't eat better? What if you are hungry and lose weight?" Well, my sisters-in-law will have any opinions later."

Brother Shi's mind was more flexible after all, and he asked with some confusion: "Sister, where did you get the meat tickets?"

Pomegranate smiled proudly: "I know an uncle who owns a meat factory. He is the only one in his family, so I exchanged vegetables for the meat in his name. But I am not from the meat factory after all. First of all, I I don’t dare to ask for lard fat and pork belly in this transaction, I will buy these after I get familiar with them.”

When Brother Shi heard that vegetables were used instead of meat stamps, he was surprised and said: "Is there such a good thing?" There are not many other things in the countryside, but there are many vegetables. If this is the case, their family will not be able to afford meat.

Brother Shi asked worriedly: "How do you know this person?"

"He saw me when I was walking to the meat factory. Uncle Wang was the guard. Maybe he thought I was pitiful, so he transferred the meat in his name to me. Didn't we bring a lot of meat from home this time? As for the green vegetables, I can just exchange them with the other party a few more times. If nothing else, I can’t stop eating the big bone soup.”

Brother Shi thought that his eldest sister's appearance was indeed quite lovable. No wonder the doorman couldn't stand it: "Sister, don't cook everything for us to eat. Keep some for yourself. Studying is quite tiring." .”

Anyway, he gets headaches when he studies and feels like his whole body is going to waste. Of the four brothers, only the fourth one insisted on going to junior high school, and the rest all graduated from elementary school. It’s not that his mother is partial, it’s just that none of them are. It is better to drop out of school early and go home to earn work points.

Brother Shi also nodded: "Mom doesn't give you much money, so you can buy more delicious food yourself."

When Shiliu heard the concerned words of her two brothers, she felt even more worried: "Don't worry, I won't starve myself. After a while, I will get to know the uncle well, and I will ask him to help buy some pork belly to make." Bratwurst.”

Brother Shi was moved when he heard this. The two of them took advantage of the elder sister to eat pork, but the children at home haven't eaten it yet, so the sausages can be made into sausages so that the children can eat a few bites. After thinking about it, the two wanted to save all the meat with pomegranate, but they thought that pig hearts, pig intestines, etc. were not easy to preserve, so they simply gave up.
