Chapter 145 Come with me
Xia Chan went to the yard and brought in pickled fish and chicken stewed with mushrooms. She put the casserole on the stove to heat it up, and then began to prepare for dinner, washing what needed to be washed and cutting what needed to be cut. After Xia Qi finished eating the fried chicken, she came over to watch the fire for Xia Chan.

In the evening, Xia Chan made fried beans with bacon, fried water spinach, fried meat with green pepper, braised eggplant in oil, fried cucumber with ham, and tomato and egg soup.

Including the pickled fish and stewed chicken with mushrooms, there were eight dishes in total, each of which was a full plate, enough for the five of them.

Seeing many vegetables that are only available in summer, they were not suspicious, because these summer vegetables are available on the black market in the city. They all thought that Xia Chan bought them on the black market. After all, she just delivered meat to the commune today, didn't she?

When the food was served on the table, Xia Chan took advantage of her brothers' inattention to take out the pizza she had heated in the oven from the space. It was a semi-finished pizza she had bought before. She had found an opportunity to sneak into the hotel suite, heated it in the kitchen oven and put it where she could take it at any time.

Five pizzas, one for each person.

The brothers just took the pizza with their hands and devoured it. "What kind of pizza is this? It tastes good."

"I don't know either. It was sold by an old man, but he only has these five dollars left. If I meet him again next time, I will buy a few more." Xia Chan smiled sweetly. As long as she was not suspected, it would be fine.

She spoils her brothers and will not be stingy with anything they want to eat.

The brothers had big appetites. They ate pizza and sweet potato rice, and then they finished all the dishes on the table, leaving nothing. Xia Chan ate a piece of pizza and some vegetarian dishes, and then didn't eat anything else.

Although the pizza was a semi-finished frozen product, it tasted no worse than the one in a fast food restaurant after being heated up. A pizza in a fast food restaurant would cost dozens or even hundreds of dollars, but a semi-finished product worth dozens of dollars was enough for a good meal for them, the brothers and sisters.

Although this may not be a good thing, eating it occasionally will not kill you.

Filling your stomach is the most important thing these days, who cares whether it is nutritious or not!

After dinner, the brothers cleaned up the house, while Xia Chan came to the utility room to look at the cassava seedlings she was growing, because after the New Year all the hills of the production team had to be planted with cassava. If she had to buy it all with her own money, it would cost a lot, and the people in the production team were not worth it for her to use up her meager savings.

So she bought a book on cassava seedling cultivation and did some experiments. She used the peeling germination method because only this method could be prepared in advance. Other methods had to wait until the cassava was planted.

She doesn't have time to run to the hill in the village every day. She starts to raise seedlings now and preserve the cassava seedlings. When the time comes, she will go directly to the hill to plant them. After that, she will just check on them every now and then. The rest will be left to fate!

Moreover, this peeling and germination method is really good. Many cassava seedlings can be grown on each cassava. She cut off the sprouts and put them into the space.

This way you can plant directly in the spring after the New Year.

It's still a long time before March, so she can prepare a lot of cassava seedlings. If they are not enough, she can buy some more to make up for it, so she won't have to spend too much money. Now that Jin Pengfei is back, it's time to continue his classes. When he was away, Xia Chan had been reviewing with other brothers, so today he can go straight to the new content.

Looking at her brothers sitting around the table on the kang, studying with her seriously, Xia Chan felt happy and satisfied. Opportunities are reserved for those who are prepared. They work so hard, so they will definitely do well in the future. What's more, Xia Chan is there to guide them.

The next morning, Xia Chan and the other four slept until they woke up naturally before getting up, packing their bags and having breakfast. Although the team might distribute meat today, they were not in a hurry at all.

In the eyes of people of this era, fat meat is the best meat, and everyone is scrambling for it. However, Xia Chan and his friends are not greedy for meat, so naturally they will not scramble for any fat meat. No matter what kind of meat is given to them, they will find a way to cook it deliciously anyway.

Xia Chan and his friends had just finished preparing lunch and had not yet had time to eat when they heard a knock on the door. Looking at the table full of dishes, Xia Chan had no choice but to ask her brothers to take the dishes to next door first and leave two plates of unsuspicious dishes on the dining table.

Then Xia Chan went to open the door. It was Yuan Bingbing and Zhang Wenwen, because Xia Chan had told them before that there would be a lot of meat in the village when the winter hunting team returned, and if they had time, they could come over to exchange meat.

Even if people exchanged meat for money, they still needed to buy things, and they needed tickets to buy things. Without tickets, many things could not be sold. However, it would be much cheaper to exchange things with Yuan Bingbing and Zhang Wenwen.

Although it is second-hand goods, the price is affordable and you can get a lot of money in exchange.

"You came at the right time. The winter hunting team came back the day before yesterday, so we can share the meat today." Seeing that Yuan Bingbing and Zhang Wenwen had nothing in their hands, Xia Chan asked in confusion, "Bingbing, didn't you bring anything today?"

Yuan Bingbing and Zhang Wenwen looked at each other and laughed happily. They originally thought that they were late and could only exchange for some bacon, but they didn't expect that they could exchange for fresh meat now.

Yuan Bingbing said impatiently, "We've brought our things. They're all at the foot of the mountain. Someone's watching over them for us. Are you free to take us there now?"

"Okay, I'll take you there now. You go down the mountain first and keep an eye on the things. I'll change my clothes and come back soon." Xia Chan quickly turned around and went into the house. While arming himself, he said to his brothers, "Brother, I'll go down the mountain first. You guys eat first! Just warm the rice in the pot for me. You can come down the mountain to get the meat later."

After packing up, Xia Chan went out carrying a basket. As expected, there was no sign of Yuan Bingbing and Zhang Wenwen outside the door. She must have gone down the mountain early. However, the road was slippery due to the cold, so she couldn't catch up with them quickly. She could only walk slowly at her own pace.

Unexpectedly, when I arrived at the foot of the mountain near her home, I saw a donkey cart parked there with packages of things on the cart. There were also several female comrades standing beside the cart. When they saw Xia Chan coming, they all looked at Xia Chan eagerly.

Xia Chan didn't expect that Yuan Bingbing would bring so many people this time.

"Come with me!" Xia Chan nodded to everyone, and then led them to the threshing ground. When they arrived at the threshing ground, they saw the team leader maintaining order. Xia Chan walked to the team leader and said, "Uncle Captain, those are friends I met in the city. They came here today to exchange meat with everyone. Uncle Captain, please ask the people in the team if anyone is willing to exchange meat for something else."
