Quick Wear: Passerby A's Daily Life of Eating Watermelons

Chapter 541 Rebirth of Mother-in-law and Daughter-in-law The Passerby A who died early in the articl

After returning home, she washed a few apples and ate them. Perhaps due to transportation, some of the apples were a little wrinkled. Although they did not look very good, to Jiang Yue’s surprise, they tasted quite good.

After eating apples, Third Aunt and Xiaojun were going home. It was getting late. When they left, Aunt Jiang brought a piece of mutton for Third Aunt. Aunt Jiang had divided the mutton she had bought earlier into small pieces. This piece was enough for a meal. Originally, Aunt San wanted her to bring a fish, but she said we had some at home so it wouldn't stay.

Jiang Yue packed a bag of peanuts and melon seeds for Xiaojun. Jiang Yue took a lot of these home and gave them to the child as snacks. After sending Third Aunt away, Jiang Ma started cooking. Jiang Yue went over to help. Why was it exposed last time? It was because there were too few types of dishes now. If they were not cooked more deliciously, Jiang Yue would be a little overwhelmed.

Today we made noodles. Mother Jiang was responsible for rolling the noodles while Jiang Yue was responsible for making the sauce. The mother and daughter worked together and soon finished the preparations. They just had to wait for Father Jiang and eldest brother to come home so they could start eating.

After the meal was ready, Mother Jiang started washing clothes. She couldn't sit still anyway, so she didn't ask Jiang Yue to help. About an hour and a half later, Father Jiang and eldest brother finally came back. Today they were half an hour later than usual, but looking at the things in their hands, you could tell that they must have received New Year's goods.

Basically everyone in this yard is from the same factory, and the benefits they receive are all similar. Dad Jiang and Big Brother each received two pounds of meat, two pounds of eggs, and a box of oranges. That's how big the benefits are. Unlike Jiang Yue, they don't even know what to get from this recycling station. I heard from everyone that they only gave out stuff on the 29th last year, and a bunch of useless things were distributed here and there.

While Jiang's mother was cleaning the meat, Jiang Yue was already preparing to cook noodles, and the stewed meat had been served on the table. Now, cooking noodles is not just about eating noodles. You have to eat as much noodles as you want, and you have to eat it with potatoes. No one would be willing to eat pure white noodles.

When the potatoes are almost cooked, Jiang Yue puts the noodles in. When the noodles are cooked, Jiang Yue scoops out the noodles with a colander and puts a large bowl on the table for each person. The rest is left in the pot. There is no need to rinse them with cold water in the winter.

"Mom, let's eat first. I'll cook the meat later." Now there is no refrigerator, so Mother Jiang marinates the meat with salt so that it can be kept for longer.

"You guys eat first, I'll be done soon."

"Do you need my help?"

"No, there are only three small pieces left. Eat them quickly, or they will become clumpy and inedible."

After Jiang Ma said this, no one waited any longer. Jiang Yue scooped the marinade for Jiang Ba and his eldest brother first, and then served it to herself. After taking a bite, she found that her cooking skills had not deteriorated at all. After Jiang Ba and his eldest brother took a few bites, they peeled the garlic and ate it. By the time they had their second bowl, Jiang Ma had finally marinated the meat.

Jiang Yue served noodles to Jiang Ma. Just as she was about to sit down to eat, little Jiang Ze ate up all the noodles in her small bowl. She was calling her "sister". The little guy had eaten a lot that day. Jiang Yue touched his stomach and found it was not bulging, so she served him a little less: "You can't eat anymore after this."

"it is good!"

After dinner, Dad Jiang started smoking. He relies on this to relieve fatigue these days. After taking a few puffs, Dad Jiang said that he has more energy recently. He doesn’t feel as tired as before when he comes home at night, and he can sleep well every day.

"Of course not. Xiaoyue has been eating much better since she started working. Before, she was lucky to eat meat once a month, but recently she has been eating meat almost every day. Isn't that good for her?"

Just after cleaning, they heard a knock on the door. They looked at each other and Jiang Ma called out, "Who is it?"

"Mom, it's me."

Mother Jiang looked at everyone and said softly, "Wu's daughter-in-law."

After opening the door, the Wu family's wife said, "Auntie, my husband is sick, and the doctor said he needs to collect some grains to make medicine. Do you have any at home? Can you lend me some?"

"Wait a moment. I remember there are still a handful of soybeans and sorghum left. I'll give them to you."

"Thank you, Auntie! Thank you!" After saying that, he bowed to Mother Jiang.

Mother Jiang opened the grain cabinet and filled a bowl of soybeans and sorghum, then put them into the cloth bag of Wu's wife. She then thanked Mother Jiang and closed the door after everyone went to Zhao's side.

"Mom, what's wrong with Angkor? Why does he need whole grains as medicine?"

"It's not that he's sick, it's just that he can't live." Mother Jiang sighed.

Mother Jiang didn't say much to her eldest brother. The next morning, many people discussed the matter. Jiang Yue saw that Aunt Wang, the housekeeper, knew about it. Based on Jiang Yue's understanding of her, she would probably take some action.

Sure enough, when Jiang Yue came back from get off work, she heard from Jiang's mother that she had been arranged by Aunt Wang to work as a temporary worker in the street office canteen.

This job doesn't pay much and it's tiring, but I can take my kids to eat some leftovers. Everyone knows where the leftovers come from. Where the leftovers come from these days is just a tacit understanding.

On the 28th day of the lunar year, Jiang Yue and her colleagues at the station finally distributed New Year benefits. There was no meat, fruit, or eggs, but there was a ticket for one pound of meat, a defective washbasin, a thermos, a stained cloth, and a few bars of soap. Although not as good as the meat, it was much better than last year's benefits.

It is already very good to have welfare, and Jiang Yue is not picky. It happens that the washbasin at home is leaking, and it has been repaired several times but it is almost impossible to fix it. This time, it was replaced with a new one. Although there is a defect, it is on the paint and does not affect the use.

An extra thermos was placed in Jiang Yue's room, so she no longer had to go outside to get water when she was thirsty at night. As for the cloth, Jiang's mother planned to bring it to her grandparents. It could make about four sets of clothes, just enough for each elderly person.

Although the welfare provided by the station was small, Jiang Yue took a lot of things home. He took less pork, beef, and mutton, but more fish. He also brought some tobacco for Jiang's father. He did not bring any tobacco made from Chinese tobacco leaves. This variety was discovered by Jiang Yue when he was cultivating immortals. It does not belong to this world. If someone who knows about it really sees it, he can just say that he found it in the mountains. There will be no evidence.

Dad Jiang treasures this tobacco so much that he can't bear to smoke it. Jiang Yue said that if it's gone, he can't buy him another one. He just can't bear to part with it.

While they were chatting after dinner, the sound of firecrackers was heard outside. The little kid couldn't sit still after hearing the sound and stared at Jiang Yue with pitiful eyes. Jiang Yue couldn't stand the look, so she touched his forehead to see if there was any sweat, dressed him and took him out to play.

Jiang's mother looked at Jiang Yue unhappily and said, "Just spoil him."

Jiang Yue ignored Jiang Ma and took Jiang Ze out to play. The eldest brother beside him also came out. Seeing Jiang Ma looking at him, he added: "I'll take care of it. Be careful not to burn the firewood."

Jiang's mother rolled her eyes and said nothing. Jiang's father, who was smoking a cigarette, said, "Old woman, let me help you pack. Are your things ready for home?"

"I've been prepared for a long time. Do you think you can be relied on?"

"Yes, yes, yes, this place can't do without you."

"That's not true."
