Through the seventy warm marriage

Chapter 21 Eggs Are Luxury Goods

After lunch and a short rest, people went to work as usual in the afternoon.

In the evening, Yang Xiuying and her daughter-in-law Bai Yan went home first. As soon as they entered, Lu Qingqing was overjoyed, "I was just wondering what to eat for dinner."

Yang Xiuying picked up a bundle of firewood from the gate, "You don't need it, you and Xiaoyue and your sister-in-law go to the yard to cool off."

Originally, Lu Qingqing wanted to help with something, but Bai Yan dragged her away.

This season has not yet reached the hottest time of the year, and the air in the evening is still a little fresh, especially after experiencing the sweltering heat during the day, it makes people feel more comfortable physically and mentally.

"Sister-in-law, why did you go home first?" Lu Qingqing sat on a small bench, fiddling with her hair boredly.

Yes, my aunt's hair is very long, and it is also braided into two braids. At this time, two braids are almost the standard for older girls and daughters-in-law, and older women will wear their hair in a braid.

Bai Yan smiled, and sat under the tree, "There is less work now, and it will be even less in the future. After all, it is not as good as it was a few years ago, and our life is better."

Seeing her hesitant to speak, Lu Qingqing raised her eyebrows and asked, "Sister-in-law, what do you want to say? Don't be so polite with me."

"Hmm..." Bai Yan hesitated for a moment, "Qingqing, you used up the eggs. After a few days, the man will come to go on a blind date, but there will be nothing to eat. Mom specially left them for the matchmaker."

Lu Qingqing was very surprised. She knew it was difficult at this time, but she didn't expect it to be so difficult. Even eggs are a luxury.

She was a little embarrassed about this, "I don't know...then what should I do now? Isn't that chicken still laying eggs?"

Bai Yan shook her head, "It's hot now, so you won't be laying eggs. Don't worry, when the time comes, you can weigh some meat and buy some other vegetables. It's not easy to get meat tickets, but it doesn't matter. Let your second brother work in the factory. Just change it."

Lu Qingqing bowed her head and said nothing. She was cooking with good intentions, but it turned out to be a mess. "By the way, sister-in-law, why are the matchmaker and the man here? Shouldn't we go to the matchmaker's house?"

"The situation is special. After all, your second brother and that man know each other, and the matchmaker belongs to the factory manager's family. It seems that it is not convenient for us to go there."

"That's it." Lu Qingqing was not at all worried that the other party would miss her. She must be more picky about an old man who robs his wife.

The meal in the evening is corn porridge with pickles and stewed potatoes. The taste is average but full.

After a few meals, Lu Qingqing can basically eat some. If you don't eat, you will be hungry. People's adaptability is still very strong, and she feels that she is even more so.

There is basically nothing going on in the village at night. In this era, there are no TV sets and no entertainment activities. The biggest activity of everyone should be chatting together in groups.

Lu Qingqing knew that she must be the topic of discussion these days. This matter was enough for everyone to talk about for a while, and maybe the enthusiasm would not subside until the next big event happened.

So she didn't rush to join the crowd, she didn't weave mats tonight, Lu Guoqiang went to the neighbor's house to visit, Lu Qingsong also went to the companion's house, Yang Xiuying didn't go out, and the women just sat in the courtyard to enjoy the shade.

It was getting dark, and suddenly the fence gate was pushed open, and a figure rushed in.

Lu Qingqing turned her head. The light was dim. She stood up and moved closer. It was only when she got closer that she could see clearly that it was Liu Jingxian.

"Are... are you all at home?" Liu Jingxian's face was flushed, she obviously ran over, her breath was still a little unsteady, "Is Second Aunt at home too? Didn't you go to the entrance of the village to chat?"

Yang Xiuying waved her hand, "Come and sit down, I'm too lazy to go out after work, where did you call?"
