Rebirth Era's Petite Wife

Chapter 18 018 We are in a boat

Shen Jiao was very satisfied with Huang Mengdi's safety, took out another assorted candy and handed it to her, smiled and blinked, Huang Mengdi took the candy with complicated thoughts, carefully hid it in her pocket, and said to Shen Jiao secretly I took a few glances.

When Shen Jiaxing came back with a bag of rice, it was Shen Jiao's turn to buy vegetables. Seeing that there were fewer and fewer vegetables in the vegetable stand, it was Huang Mengdi's turn to buy a handful of vegetables and a few potatoes.She was lucky, and she bought the last few tomatoes, which were big and red, and looked very festive.

When it was Shen Jiao's turn, there were only potatoes and radishes left in the vegetable stand. The vegetables and tomatoes were gone, so she had to weigh four or five potatoes, and then bought a few round radishes. With a straight face, as if someone owed her a lot of money.

Shen Jiao scolded people when she picked a little more, she was so frightened that she quickly picked a few at random, paid the money and walked out, this was the first time she used paper money, the colorful ones were so pretty, unlike the ones she used to use All are copper plates, heavy.

And these paper money is really forbidden to spend, a dime a sheet can buy so many potatoes and radishes, grandpa showed her the money at home, there is so much money, it can buy as many potatoes and radishes as a mountain.

Shen Jiaxing quickly took the vegetable basket from Shen Jiao's hand. Seeing that she was a little upset, he comforted her, "It's okay, potatoes and radishes are also delicious. Let's come early tomorrow, so we can buy vegetables."

Shen Jiao nodded, but her mouth was extremely greedy for green vegetables. After all, she hadn't eaten green vegetables since she went to the frontier. It's been more than half a year. When she saw the handful of green vegetables in Huang Mengdi's basket just now, She has an urge to grab it and eat it raw.

Huang Mengdi?
Shen Jiao's eyes lit up, she came to Huang Mengdi who hadn't gone far, and asked in a low voice: "Can you pass your vegetables to me? I'll give you an extra penny."

Green vegetables cost two cents a piece, and Shen Jiao's extra penny is a big plus. At this time, one penny can buy a few hard fruit candies, and you can also go to the tiger stove to make two pots of boiling water. Add half a tael of food stamps, add two or three cents, and you can get a glutinous rice ball with brown sugar stuffed in half a deep-fried dough stick, which is delicious.

Of course, Shen Jiao didn't know these prices, she was just trying to get this handful of green vegetables that made her drool with the shrewdness and calculations of the Shen family.

Huang Mengdi couldn't help but be moved. She won't be able to eat green vegetables anyway, so she might as well transfer to Shen Jiao to earn a penny, so that she can have six cents of her private money. After saving for a year or two, she can buy The shoes are worn.

"Go over there and talk." Huang Mengdi lowered her voice, looked around, and dragged Shen Jiao to the entrance of the alley, but there was no one there.

"Here, here are some vegetables for you."

Huang Mengdi threw the stale greens into Shen Jiao's basket very quickly, her expression was very flustered, even fine beads of sweat oozed from her forehead, which showed how scared this girl was.

Although Shen Jiao found it strange, she didn't ask any further questions, and also put three cents into Huang Mengdi's hand very quickly. The relationship between the two little girls was like an underground worker's meeting. Shen Jiaxing saw it as funny, but He was still looking around vigilantly.

If people found out that Jiaojiao was dealing with that little girl privately, something would happen!
The three cents came into the account, and Huang Mengdi's nervous heart calmed down. She glanced at the bright red tomatoes in the basket, and thought for a moment, she couldn't eat these tomatoes, so why not...

"Do you want tomatoes? You give six cents." Huang Mengdi asked nervously, but she was thinking in her heart that if the tomatoes were sold, she would have seven cents.

Shen Jiao took a few glances at the tomatoes, and raised her eyebrows secretly. She knew this thing, called foreign persimmons, which were imported from Fanbang. Because the fruits they grew were red and festive, most of them were used for ornamental purposes at home, but this fruit was It is poisonous, how can it be eaten?

But just now, many grandma bought these foreign persimmons and went back, thinking that the foreign persimmons are edible here, Shen Jiao did not show any surprise due to the cautiousness cultivated in the frontier, but nodded in agreement with Huang Mengdi's proposal.

As a result, there were only a few potatoes left in Huang Mengdi's basket, Shen Jiao couldn't see it, so she took two round carrots from her own basket and put them into her basket.

Huang Mengdi pursed her lips tightly and didn't say any words of rejection, but she returned the penny she just collected to Shen Jiao. Shen Jiao gave her a surprised look, confiscated the penny, and said with a smile: "We are a boat Oh!"

After speaking, Shen Jiao left with the basket on her shoulders. Huang Mengdi glanced at Shen Jiao, bent over and left the alley with the basket on her shoulders.

When Shen Jiaxing saw the vegetables and tomatoes in the basket, he secretly gave Shen Jiao a thumbs up. His Jiaojiao is smart!

"Grandpa, what are these red fruits called? Are they edible?" Shen Jiao asked very carefully.

Shen Jiaxing glanced at the tomatoes and said with a smile: "These are called tomatoes, also called tomatoes, and also called foreign persimmons. They are delicious vegetables. They can also be eaten raw as fruits. They are even more delicious when they are fried. Grandpa will fry them for you tonight." Eggs, the soup rice is a must, and stewed beef brisket with tomatoes, tsk, it's even more delicious."

When it comes to eating, Shen Jiaxing's chatting starts, from tomato all the way to beef, and then from beef to red sausage, bread, and borscht, all novel names that Shen Jiao has never heard of.

"Grandpa will take you to the restaurant to eat Western food in two days after rest. It's a bit more expensive there, but you don't need food stamps and meat stamps. Let's order three pieces of steak and a pot of borscht soup to fill you up." Shen Jiaxing said generously Said with interest.

Shen Jiao was also attracted by the beautiful scene he described, her mouth was drooling, even though she didn't know what steak and borscht were, it must be delicious.

"Okay, eat your fill!" Agreeing to Shen Jiaxing's words crisply, the grandfather and grandson looked at each other and smiled.

When he went back, Shen Jiaxing went to the non-staple food store to buy oil, which was soybean oil. Peanut oil was only available during the Spring Festival. He also bought seasonings such as soy sauce and vinegar, and also bought some kerosene, white sugar, red soup, etc., and spent all his tickets. When it was over, I carried the big and small bags back home.

When passing by the delicatessen, Shen Jiaxing went in and bought a bunch of offal such as duck heads, chicken feet, etc. There was no ticket for these things, as long as they had money, many people would buy them back for a drink.

"Jiaojiao likes to eat duck feet, go back and eat your fill!" Shen Jiaxing said with a smile.

Shen Jiao made a bitter face, the one who likes to eat duck paws is the original owner, she never eats such dirty things, think about what the duck's paws are stepping on?
Poop!
How could she eat it?

After returning home, Shen Jiaxing excitedly picked up a tender duck paw and handed it to Shen Jiao, urging her to eat it quickly. Under the loving eyes of the old man, Shen Jiao bravely stuffed the duck paw into her mouth , comforting herself in her heart, it's all right, she even caught and ate mice when she was in exile, but they were just duck feet, there was nothing she couldn't eat.

Once the psychological barrier was passed, Shen Jiao tasted the delicacy of the duck's paw, chewed it slowly, and stuffed it into Shen Jiaxing's mouth at the same time.

　Tomatoes were not officially used for human consumption until the [-]th century, that is, during the Guangxu period of the Qing Dynasty, and tomatoes have always been used as ornamental plants during this period.
