Wait until the two of them line up separately and buy vegetables!

It's still as crowded as before!

He Tiantian missed the free market so much. As long as she had money, she could buy anything she wanted. No need to get up so early, no need to be so crowded, and no need for all kinds of messy tickets.

This is why He Tiantian likes Qijia Village instead of Nanshi.

In Qijia Village, you only need to buy a small amount of industrial products. What you eat is basically vegetables from the two or three-fen private plots at home, as well as prey from the back mountain and fish from the river.

No need to go to the supply and marketing cooperative to line up so early for a little meat, a few radishes, and cabbages.

When the two of them bought things, it was already past nine in the morning when they got home.

He Tiantian cooked radish soup. There were also pastries left over from yesterday at home. They just needed to be baked on the stove and eaten. She didn't make breakfast specially.

Tomorrow night, I will treat guests, but the things are not ready yet. I have to go buy them tomorrow morning.

After two consecutive days, I finally bought everything.

He Tiantian and Huo Yingjie prepared in advance, picking vegetables, washing them, and preparing seasonings in advance.

He Tiantian was lucky enough to buy a pig's head.

This is more cost-effective than buying meat directly. A pig's head can produce a lot of meat.

Two pig ears, a dish of vegetables; pig tongue is another dish, and it can also produce a lot of pig head meat.

He Tiantian took a brush and brushed the pig's head in the big basin over and over again, then found two tweezers and said, "Come on, don't stand there, help me pluck the pig hair."

Huo Yingjie held the tweezers and wanted to cry but had no tears.

But his wife had spoken, so he had to obey!

"It's so good to buy pork. There are so many hairs on the pig's head, it's not easy to clean!" Huo Yingjie whispered, especially when he saw He Tiantian's red hands frozen, he felt particularly distressed.

"It's a bit troublesome, but you'll find it delicious when it's done." He Tiantian smiled and plucked the hair quickly with tweezers.

After cleaning, put the pig head in a big pot, add water, throw in a seasoning packet, and start stewing the pig head.

This is He Tiantian's specialty, and it is also her ability to make money to support herself in her previous life.

Before, she was worried that the things in her previous life would reappear, so she always avoided doing these things. But now it is different. She has a completely different life from her previous life. The things in her previous life are no longer a shadow in her heart and have no great impact on her.

She can now face everything in her previous life calmly.

In the evening, when Jiang Lifang and Huo Zhekun came back, they smelled the fragrance. Although it was not fully flavored, it was already cooked.

He Tiantian cut off a large piece with a knife, cut it into small pieces, and used it as a meat dish for the evening, stir-fried radish.

"Well, it tastes really good." Jiang Lifang took a bite of the pig's head. "Tiantian learned a lot of skills in Qijia Village!"

"Yes, it's my second hometown." He Tiantian smiled, "I know other things, but now the materials are in short supply. When the materials are abundant in the future, I will make delicious food for you."

"We are really blessed." Huo Zhekun said. It was rare to have dishes suitable for drinking. He took out some wine and he and Huo Yingjie drank two glasses.

It took eight hours from the afternoon to stew the pig's head.

He Tiantian asked Huo Yingjie to take the pig's head out and put it in a basin to dry.

The next day, He Tiantian and Huo Yingjie were busy all day, steamed buns in advance, sealed them up, and used them as staple food. Finally, everything was done, and they were waiting for the time to start cooking.

In the evening, Huo Zhekun brought Secretary Guo and six people into the yard.

He Tiantian made tea and asked Huo Yingjie to bring it in.

Jiang Lifang also came back from get off work early and cooked with He Tiantian.

After preparing a table of food, He Tiantian changed into a clean dress and went out with Huo Yingjie to meet some of her father-in-law's friends and colleagues.

This was a private gathering, not a wedding banquet, but to introduce the two newlyweds to everyone.

Since these people came, they couldn't come empty-handed, so they gave He Tiantian and Huo Yingjie a gift.

They were very happy to see Huo Yingjie recover and get married. They didn't have to worry about their leaders getting into trouble and their future being affected.

After drinking and eating, they moved to the living room and talked about some political affairs.

Huo Yingjie accompanied them on the side. Because they were younger and everyone came because of his marriage, Huo Yingjie was responsible for entertaining these elders.

The guests and hosts were very happy, and at 9:30 in the evening, they went home.

In front of his wife and son, Huo Zhekun praised He Tiantian again and said, "Everyone who came here today praised Tiantian."

"That's right, don't you see whose daughter-in-law it is." Jiang Lifang smiled, "By the way, we don't hold a big wedding here, and it's also because of the tense situation. My parents-in-law are waiting eagerly in Yanjing. When will Yingjie and Tiantian go to Yanjing?"

"Let's take the train tomorrow night." Huo Zhekun said, "Go early and come back early."

"That's right." Jiang Lifang said, "Shuping will give birth in early February, Tiantian has to go back, come back early, and don't have to rush on the road."

Hearing her mother-in-law say this, He Tiantian was moved!

She had thought of several ways in her mind before, and told her mother-in-law that she wanted to go back to Qijia Village.

Unexpectedly, Jiang Lifang had already said it before she said it.

Return sincerity for sincerity.

"Yeah." Huo Zhekun nodded, "Yingjie, you are married now and have recovered your health. What are your plans for the future?"

Huo Yingjie had discussed with He Tiantian before that he would go to college and take the entrance exam to a university in Nanshi, so that he could be with his parents and wife without being separated. As for those high-tech projects, he didn't want to do them for the time being.

"I want to review and prepare for the college entrance exam." Huo Yingjie said, "Tiantian has been studying hard these years. When the time comes, we will take the entrance exam to a university in Nanshi together, so that we can be with our parents and complete our studies."

"Ah?" Huo Zhekun was stunned, "Now you don't need to take the entrance exam to go to college, just recommend it directly!"

Huo Yingjie smiled and said, "The university you are talking about is for workers, peasants and soldiers, right?"

"Yes, now the country only recruits workers, peasants and soldiers." Huo Zhekun nodded, and it is very difficult to get a quota. Even if his position is quite high, he may not be able to get a quota.

"Those are recommended, without strict assessment, and the quality is uneven. Some workers, peasants and soldiers have graduated and joined the workforce, and the disadvantages can be seen. At the same time, our country will need many people with real talents and knowledge in the future, so open enrollment is imperative." Huo Yingjie said, explaining to his father.

"No way?" Huo Zhekun was half-believing and half-doubting.

"Why not? Our country is vast and has a large population. How to manage and develop it is very urgent." Huo Yingjie said, "Now everyone knows what the country is like, but no one is willing to change, and no one dares to change."
