Traveling through the ages with the hotel, being doted on by four brothers

Chapter 190 Let’s not buy it for now

Maybe this is fate. They both have similar family backgrounds and even similar experiences.

But she was not sure when she could go back. After all, it was hard to find a job in the city, and everyone was assigned a position. Her mother was a doctor, and she would not do the job even if she was given it. So she could only rely on herself to find a job and return to the city.

But she didn't want to go back so early. She didn't want to see that scumbag's family again.

When the movie started, few people came in. The theater, which had dozens of seats, was only sparsely occupied by a few people!

After watching the movie, the two went to a state-owned restaurant for dinner. Both of them came from well-off families, had money and tickets, so they naturally chose the best food. They ordered braised pork, stir-fried lamb with green onions, stir-fried seasonal vegetables, and winter melon and pork ribs soup.

I also ordered five large steamed buns.

Yuan Bingbing wanted to pay half of the money and tickets, but Zhou Ji paid the bill first, "I'll pay this time, and you pay next time, how about that?"

Yuan Bingbing nodded, "Okay, don't snatch it from me next time!"

They are just dating now, she doesn't want to spend his money, and her family is not bad either, so there is no need for her to do things that would lower her status in the eyes of others.

After that, the two of them found a place to sit down. When the staff called them, Zhou Ji stood up and brought the food they ordered. There were five big steamed buns. Yuan Bingbing ate two and Zhou Ji ate three. The two of them worked hard to finish the dishes.

It was still early when they came out of the movie, and the state-owned restaurant was quiet and empty with only a few people around. Otherwise, when seeing the two of them eating four courses, someone would definitely stand on the moral high ground and accuse them of being extravagant and wasteful, or something like that.

There is never a shortage of such people at any time.

Since they cannot live such a good life themselves, they satisfy their inner vanity by blaming others.

Seeing Xiao Tiantian staring at a women's bicycle, Xiao Fengfeng asked, "Want to buy a bicycle?"

Xiao Tiantian pouted and nodded, "With a bicycle, it will be more convenient to go out in the future. Whether riding a bullock cart or a tractor, you have to squeeze together with everyone. Some people have a strong odor and it's uncomfortable to smell it."

"But we will leave here in the future, you buy a bicycle..." Xiao Fengfeng raised his eyebrows.

Xiao Tiantian frowned, "Are you stupid? If we leave here, we can give the bicycle to Xia Chan, or sell it to her at a low price!"

"I still think buying a bicycle is too ostentatious. Although you mentioned your high standards for getting married last time, what if a stubborn person plots against you? I can't be by your side 24 hours a day. What if someone takes advantage of me?" Xiao Fengfeng said.

"Forget it, let's not buy it for now!" After that, Xiao Tiantian dragged Xiao Fengfeng to find Xia Chan. Xia Chan didn't buy anything either. There was almost nothing missing at home. They already had a watch and a radio.

She also wanted to buy a bicycle. After all, there is no man who doesn't love cars. Her brothers would definitely be happy if she bought one. However, their family was too poor. If she bought a bicycle all of a sudden, it would be hard to guarantee that others would not think too much.

Many people in the village are not very friendly to their family, and they cannot put any handle on them.

Besides, if the family has a bicycle, the villagers will want to come and borrow it, which is annoying. So even if she wants to buy one, she will not buy it in the next two years. She will wait until the family's debts are paid off and save money for two years. Then she can buy a bicycle openly. After coming out of the supply and marketing cooperative, Xia Chan whispered to Xiao Tiantian, "Call Bingbing to come to my house for braised pork in the evening. The braised pork I make is very delicious. It's so delicious that you can even eat a few bowls of vegetables."

Xiao Tiantian nodded happily. When she thought of Xia Chan's craftsmanship, she couldn't help drooling.

Yuan Bingbing had secretly told Xia Chan that she had something to deal with today and would not go back with everyone. So after everyone in the village got on the tractor, Xia Chan did not wait for Yuan Bingbing and Zhou Ji, but drove the tractor to take everyone back.

Xia Chan returned home, locked the gate, and went straight into the hotel suite. He went to the kitchen to wash the pig offal. Pig offal was particularly difficult to wash and had to be washed in advance, otherwise it would be too late to wash it when the cooking was about to begin.

It took Xia Chan more than two hours to wash the pig offal clean. After cutting it into small pieces that were easy to eat, Xia Chan came out of the hotel suite carrying the pig offal.

She put the pig offal on the kitchen table and began to prepare other ingredients. She soaked the dried mushrooms, dried black fungus and dried bamboo shoots, cut the cucumbers into finger-length strips, cut the winter melon into pieces, cut the beans into finger-length strips, cut the potatoes and sweet potatoes into pieces, and washed and cut the cabbage.

I also boiled a few eggs, peeled them, and put them on a plate for later use.

In the evening, when every household is preparing to cook dinner, Xia Chan also lights a fire and starts to stew. When the stew is almost done, he pours all the other side dishes into it and continues to cook. It will taste better when the side dishes absorb enough juice.

Then I kneaded the dough and made a circle of pancakes on the edge of the pot.

For fear that these things would not be enough to eat, Xia Chan also steamed a basket of cassava. After the cassava is steamed, the skin and the flesh will automatically separate, making it very convenient to eat.

Hearing a knock on the door, Xia Chan hurried out to open it. She had locked the gate from the inside, so even if her brothers had the key, they couldn't get in unless they climbed over the wall.

Seeing that Yuan Bingbing seemed to be in a good mood, Xia Chan knew that she and Zhou Ji had a good time strolling around the town today. She pinched her arm jokingly and then invited her in.

Yuan Bingbing pulled Xia Chan aside mysteriously and shook the lunch box in her hand. Xia Chan understood what she meant at a glance and nodded.

"Just a little bit will do, no need to do too much." Yuan Bingbing said embarrassedly.

"Don't worry!" Xia Chan naturally knew that she brought this for Zhou Ji, but she didn't know that Yuan Bingbing and Zhou Ji were already in a boyfriend-girlfriend relationship because Yuan Bingbing didn't make it public.

While everyone was washing their hands and faces, Xia Chan went to the kitchen, opened the lid of the pot, took some of the stewed meat and various side dishes, filled a whole lunch box, and then put the lunch box in the steamer used to steam cassava to keep it warm, so that when Yuan Bingbing came back after dinner, the stewed meat would not get cold.

No matter how much seasoning is added to meat dishes, as long as they are cold, there will be some fishy smell. Some people have sensitive noses and cannot tolerate even the slightest fishy smell.

A big pot of stewed summer cicadas filled three large basins.

Then everyone sat down and started eating.

"What is this? It's so starchy, just like the sweet potatoes you eat when you eat starch." Xiao Tiantian asked in confusion while eating cassava.

"This is cassava, a kind of relief food in the south. I didn't expect to find it in the mountains here. I found it in the mountains. At first I thought it was inedible, but after trying it I found it was okay. After that we occasionally eat cassava. However, this thing has a very short shelf life and will rot in a few days. Otherwise, I could get you some!" Xia Chan explained.
