Chapter 110 Return to the Black Market 2
Coming out of the cowshed, Feng Qingxue carried four pieces of wild boar meat and headed for her uncle and aunt's home.
The first place she went to must be Wang Zhengguo's home.
Wang Zhengguo treated his niece well as always. Miao Fengqin didn't know that her daughter had threatened Feng Qingxue, so she entertained her warmly.
As for Wang Jiao, because she didn't achieve her goal, she was driven out by Feng Qingxue, and then she was scolded by her father. So she was very angry with Feng Qingxue. When she heard that she was coming, she immediately slammed the door and went into the bedroom, refusing to show up.
"This child!" Miao Fengqin felt a little embarrassed.
She thought her daughter wanted to marry Lu Jiang, so she didn't give a good face to Feng Qingxue who was engaged to Lu Jiang.
Feng Qingxue didn't care about Wang Jiao's attitude at all. She handed the meat to Miao Fengqin and smiled: "Auntie, the meat is wild boar meat specially sent by A Jiang. I'll send you and your uncle a piece to eat during the New Year."
Miao Fengqin was stunned, "Oh? Lu Jiang sent it? Why are you so polite?" In the past, Lu Jiang had never sent meat to his father.
From this point of view, Lu Jiang really cares about Feng Qingxue.
Wang Zhengguo was very satisfied, "Lu Jiang sent it to you, just keep it for yourself."
"Uncle, I kept a piece, this is for you, everyone can taste it."
Wang Zhengguo did not refuse after hearing this, and turned to his wife and said, "I'll go to the cellar to dig some radishes and potatoes and take them back to Xue. Her sisters don't have vegetables to eat in winter."
Miao Fengqin nodded, "Okay, and get two more cabbages for Xiaoxue." Anyway, Feng Qingxue couldn't take much by herself.
"I have to send some to my second uncle, third uncle and aunt." Feng Qingxue quickly refused.
"Then wait until you come back after sending it." Wang Zhengguo made the final decision.
The return gifts from my second uncle, third uncle and aunt were also winter storage vegetables, either cabbage and radish, or potatoes, garlic chives, dried vegetables and sweet potatoes. My aunt also gave a jar of pickled cabbage. The four families gave together, and the vegetables alone filled four large baskets. Wang Zhengguo simply drove a bullock cart to send her back.
It was almost noon. Feng Qingxue took off her military coat immediately after she got home, put on an apron, and started cooking.
Wang Zhengguo noticed that this house really looked like home. Although the tables, chairs, beds and cabinets were not new, they were all made of good wood and were wiped clean without any oil stains or dirt. In the east bedroom, the bedding was neatly folded on the bed. A hemp rope was pulled between the north and south walls, and washed clothes and socks were hung on the clothes.
Turning and walking into the west room, Wang Zhengguo found that in addition to the stove and charcoal, there were also water tanks, wooden barrels, cabinets, and sand basins. There was an iron griddle against the corner of the wall. On the table were a chopping board, a kitchen knife, oil, salt, sauce and vinegar jars. Several small bamboo baskets and bowls were filled with chopped cabbage, shredded radish, shredded potato, garlic sprouts and shredded ginger, garlic cloves, and chili segments. There were also two large bowls next to them. Four or five eggs were beaten in one bowl and mixed evenly. One bowl was filled with sliced bacon.
Wang Zhengguo quickly sat on the mat in front of the stove to help light the fire, and found that coal was burning at the bottom of the stove.
"Where did the coal come from?" Wang Zhengguo asked.
Feng Qingxue dug a piece of lard from the oil tank and put it into the pot, while answering: "Yunyun and I didn't prepare firewood in advance, so we asked Ajiang's comrades to get some coal. Let's get through this winter first."
Wang Zhengguo hummed, without any doubt.
The lard melted, and Feng Qingxue poured shredded potatoes, shredded ginger and chili into the pot and stir-fried them.
Next came shredded radish, fried eggs with garlic chives, and finally stir-fried cabbage with bacon. The bacon was the wild boar meat cooked yesterday.
The rice was sweet potato porridge, and the staple food was multi-grain pancakes.
