Wang Yue slept in for the first time. He only got up at ten o'clock and went to the department store to buy some red paper.
He also bought some dried fruits and other things.
It was now the 29th of December, and tomorrow was the 30th day of the Lunar New Year.
Although the country was extremely poor now, the department store was still bustling with people.
After fighting for more than an hour in the crowd, Wang Yue finally bought everything.
Then, he found a place selling cannons at the edge of the department store. He bought a cannon barrel, 50 fireworks, a few kicks, and a few strings of firecrackers.
He spent a total of 15 yuan.
Then, he went to the grain store to get two catties of glutinous rice and five catties of yellow rice.
It was already two o'clock in the afternoon when she returned.
"Third Uncle, are you writing a couplet?”As soon as Wang Yue entered, he saw Third Uncle setting up a table in the front yard.
"Wang Yue, you're back from shopping. Do you want to write a couplet? I'll write it for you for free.”Third Uncle said enthusiastically.
Third Uncle had a good impression of Wang Yue.
If Wang Yue hadn't brought him to hunt, he wouldn't have had so much meat to eat.
Also, he went to Pigeon Market this morning and sold more than 100 catties of wild boar meat, earning 300 yuan.
This was close to the price of two bicycles.
Moreover, with this money, there was no need to worry about not having enough food in such a famine.
"In a while. I'll send the things back.”
Wang Yue walked to the backyard and saw that the Deaf Old Lady's house had already been pasted with couplets.
Moreover, the couplet was painted in gold, and the words were written in semi-cursive script. The words were written quite well.
It was completely different from the words written by Third Master.
Third Uncle was writing in regular script.
After all, as a teacher, he used regular script the most.
"Brother Zhu Zi, who wrote your couplet? Not bad!" Wang Yue shouted.
Creak…The
Deaf Old Lady's door opened, and He Yuzhu came out wearing an apron.
"Xueru wrote it. My wife is proficient in painting. Do you want to write it? If you want to, give me the red paper.”He Yuzhu said with a smile.
"Alright, help me write five." Wang Yue took out the red paper from the bag and handed it to He Yuzhu.
"Alright, I'll send a gift to you later.”He Yuzhu took the paper and went back.
He was probably busy with something in the kitchen.
Wang Yue returned to his room and cut off the mutton, leaving the clean meat and ribs. Now, only a small amount of meat was left in the bones of the two sheep.
He cut the skeleton into small pieces and threw them into the big pot.
The skeletons of the two sheep were more than half of the pot.
The kitchen of Wang Yue's family used the kind of clay stove from the northeast. The front pot was small, and the back pot was very big.
Then, he added some water to the fire and threw in a little ginger, a handful of onions, and a handful of chili.
Then, he slowly cooked it.
"Wang Yue, are you planning to make meat?”He Yuzhu came in with the couplet and asked with a smile when he saw Wang Yue cooking the meat.
"That's right. After the yellow rice is fried, there will be tea for the guests.”Wang Yue said with a smile.
"I remember that your ancestral home is in Tianjin City, right?”He Yuzhu asked curiously.
This method of soaking cooked rice with meat was the authentic way of eating Chahar.
"That's right. People in Tianjin City can't eat this.”Wang Yue said speechlessly.
In his previous life, Wang Yue had been to the Bell Plains for a vacation, and he had eaten breakfast with pork.
However, Wang Yue didn't like to add those messy things.
If it was the authentic Chaharwacan people, they would make milk tea with milk skin, milk dregs, butter, and so on.
The morning tea that Wang Yue mentioned was old brick tea with salt added, followed by cooked rice and meat.
Even the Han people could accept such a taste.
"It can be eaten." He Yuzhu said speechlessly.
"By the way, call someone over to chew on the bones and see if the bones I made are authentic.”Wang Yue said to He Yuzhu with a smile.
"Alright." He Yuzhu nodded.
"By the way, Brother Zhu Zi, do you know how to cook rice?”
"Yes." He Yuzhu nodded.
"Then help me stir-fry it. I'll go and paste the couplet.”Wang Yue stood up and said.
"Alright." He Yuzhu agreed immediately.
Stir-frying the cooked rice was quite simple. He just put the yellow rice in the pot and stir-fried it continuously. He just had to make sure that it was not burnt.
Wang Yue made a basin of flour paste and pasted the couplets.
After he was done with the postings in the backyard, Wang Yue went to the middle courtyard and pasted couplets on the windows of the penthouse.
Wang Feng had modified the penthouse in the middle court. The door opened from the middle court and was placed in the backyard.
"Wang Yue, the couplet that the silly wife wrote for you!”Wang Yue, who was in the middle of the couplet, heard Third Master's voice behind him.
"Yeah." Wang Yue nodded.
"Oh right, what's that silly wife doing? She's wearing a short silk flag coat and is dressed so exquisitely.”Third Uncle asked curiously.
He did not even talk to Chen Xueru when he went hunting yesterday.
"You can be considered a tailor. You should know Xueru Silk Shop. Chen Xueru is the private manager there.”Wang Yue said directly.
"Silly Zhu has hooked up with a rich woman!”
When he heard that it was the private manager of Xueru Silk Manor, he was stunned for a moment and then asked with a smile.
"It's not that she's a rich woman. The two of them have a crush on each other.”
"Where is Silly Zhu working now?”Third Uncle continued to ask.
"Beijing Hotel, why are you asking about this?”Wang Yue said as he posted the couplet.
"No way, with Silly Zhu's culinary skills, she can even enter a restaurant in the capital?”Third Uncle asked in surprise.
"Yes."
Hearing Wang Yue's words, Third Master smiled as if he was thinking of something good.
Now that Silly Zhu was working at the Capital Hotel, Third Uncle was habitually calculating if he could get some benefits.
In a few minutes, Wang Yue pasted the couplet on the side room.
"Third Uncle, I'm going back.”
After saying goodbye to Third Uncle, he walked towards the backyard.
Third Uncle also left the courtyard when he saw that he had left.
However, the two of them did not notice that Qin Huairu was quietly listening in on their conversation by the window.
Now, Silly Zhu was working at the Capital Hotel, and his salary was at least 60 yuan.
He had to think of a way to get some money back from Silly Zhu.
Silly Zhu wasn't home for a month, so she couldn't eat her own steamed bread.
After being used to eating good food, no one could stand a month of cornbread.
After all, it is easy to go from frugality to extravagance, but difficult to go from extravagance to frugality.
However, Qin Huairu felt discouraged at the thought of Chen Xueru.
Yesterday, when Chen Xueru was scolding the First Uncle, she was also there.
Chen Xueru's mouth was poisonous. If she scolded him, he would definitely not be able to take it.
Moreover, even a fool would know that Chen Xueru was prettier than him.
The most important thing was that Chen Xueru was rich.
Xueru Silk and satin shop was very famous in the area.
It was famous for being expensive.
Compared to Chen Xueru, he was like an ugly duckling and a white swan.
"No, we have to mess with them, otherwise Zhu Zi won't be able to come back.”Qin Huairu's gaze was fierce.
Fortunately, the three children were taking an afternoon nap. Otherwise, they would definitely be frightened by this gaze.
Qin Huairu started to plan how to scheme against Silly Zhu.
After thinking for a while, Qin Huairu walked towards the first uncle's house.
The only thing that could be maintained now was the relationship between Yi Zhonghai and the Deaf Old Lady.
He had to think of a way to get Yi Zhonghai to start with the Deaf Old Lady.
He wanted to see if he could mess up Silly Zhu and Chen Xueru.
If he were to make a move now, be it Silly Zhu, Chen Xueru, or the Deaf Old Lady, they would all have a bad impression of him.
That was because he had observed Silly Zhu and Chen Xueru.
Silly Zhu looked at Chen Xue Ru the same way she used to look at him.
