Chapter 90 - Rice Krispies
He did what he said, and Zhang Chengchuan really went out to the junkyard to see if there was scrap iron or something, or a scrapped unusable bicycle or something.
Now is not the time to make big steel, so there are a lot of scrap metal here, and there are also some scrapped bicycles.
Their county is indeed not that wealthy, but there are not too many people who own bicycles. Some people gritted their teeth and bought one and rode for many years. Now they can no longer ride. to the junkyard.
It’s just that when Zhang Chengchuan went out, he didn’t forget to take the things Chen Xiayue made to sell. Chen Xiayue didn’t make mung bean cakes or the like. She made peanut candy, melon seed candy and rice flower candy.
After the peanuts are fried, rub off the outer skin, crush them, mix the syrup, compress them, let them cool, and cut them into pieces. The melon seed candy and the rice flower candy are similar.
Chen Xiayue made rice flower candy, and also a little bit of millet flower candy. The rice and millet are fried very fluffy and then mixed with syrup to make sugar, which tastes very good.
Chen Xiayue didn’t put a lot of sugar, it was enough to mix all these ingredients. There were more peanuts, melon seeds, rice and millet, and less sugar.
But even this is very popular, and the most popular should be the rice flower candy, after all, the rice flower candy is more crunchy. Peanut candy and melon seed candy are relatively hard, and those with bad teeth are really worried about biting their teeth.
This time, Zhang Chengchuan brought peanut candy, melon seed candy, rice candy, and millet candy 1 catty each, a total of 4 catties. Bicycles, and discarded iron and other metal materials.
Zhang Chengchuan went to the junk station and found no abandoned bicycles, but there were some scraps of metal.
You also need to give money to get things from the waste station. Zhang Chengchuan simply paid the money and went home with the things.
“Nothing to gain?” Chen Xiayue looked at some scrap iron he brought back. This time Zhang Chengchuan went to the town, and the scrap station in the town should not be very rich.
“Well, I’ll go to the county town tomorrow, or go to the city if I don’t.” Zhang Chengchuan unloaded the scrap iron from the car and replied while working.
“It’s okay to go to the county seat. It’s a bit dazzling to go so far into the city, right?” Chen Xiayue almost forgot the benefits of the farm system. Last time, Zhang Chengchuan returned home directly from the city through the farm.
Originally, she was worried that Zhang Chengchuan went to the junkyard in the city to find out if there were any abandoned bicycles or other vehicles, and if he found something, it would be hard to bring it back. But before he raised any questions, he remembered this function of the farm, and he was worried that if Zhang Chengchuan went to the city, it would be more eye-catching.
“It’s okay, the captain is used to me taking leave often.” Zhang Chengchuan didn’t care at all.
Although she needs to register for work now, just like Chen Xiayue, she has no work points when she just married. Even if she works in the fields, she will not get work points. Not much work.
Zhang Chengchuan just registered his name, and when he goes to work, he has work points. Normally, Zhang Chengchuan would go if he wanted to go, but he had to go when the farming was busy.
Zhang Chengchuan said that the captain was used to asking for leave, and Chen Xiayue had nothing to say.
The captain is from the Zhou family, but he still takes good care of Zhang Chengchuan. After all, Zhang Deping is also a member of the village committee and has a good relationship with the captain.
Zhang Chengchuan is also the captain who watched him grow up, and is usually a bit unreliable, but the captain also knows what Zhang Chengchuan’s character is like.
The last time I was able to open a letter of introduction to Zhang Chengchuan and let him go to the city, this time it is definitely possible.
“Let’s go, then, by the way, go to the county to help me deliver some bacon to my parents.” Chen Xiayue said that the bacon she made with Zhang Chengchuan before was actually most simply put salt, soy sauce, and others. All of the seasonings were replaced by Ans.
It should be said that the one with salt and the one with salt and soy sauce is bacon, and the rest is bacon. She smoked it with the branches and grass that smelled very good from Ans, and it tasted very good. delicious aroma.
But even if all the bacon was given to Ans, there are still a lot of bacon made by Chen Xiayue. I sent some to Zhang Chengyue and the others last time. Chen Xiayue and the others still have a lot. She plans to let Zhang Chengchuan send it back to her parents’ home.
Of course, she told her family that she bought the meat and made it herself, and when she finally made the bacon, she sent some back to her family.
Of course, in addition to giving to her parents’ side, Chen Xiayue also plans to give some to her relatives on the Zhang’s side, a piece of bacon for each of the several houses, and Zhang Chengchuan’s grandfather should also give some.
Chen Xiayue can send a little more to her parents’ house, and she can also ask Chen Mingying and the others to send a little back to her hometown to give other relatives of Chen’s family a taste.
“Today’s candy sells very well. These candies can be stored for a period of time when sealed. It just happens that the Chinese New Year is approaching. If someone buys them back and eats them at home, they can also take them out as gifts.” Zhang Chengchuan took out the money from his pocket and handed it to his daughter-in-law.
In the past, those who sold grains took thousands of yuan and asked their daughter-in-law to put them away. No one would deposit money at the post office these days. Of course, Chen Xiayue could only save cash.
“If you go to the city, you should also buy more things by the way. It’s almost New Year’s Eve, and I will add some clothes for my parents, as well as my grandparents. By the way, my parents will also need to bring some clothes. There are a lot of things, so you can take the money first.”
“I’ll give you a little more when you go out tomorrow. When you go to the city, go shopping more, buy more things, and show respect to your elders during the Chinese New Year.” Chen Xiayue said.
She can exchange all kinds of things with Ans directly, but many things on Ans’s side are not suitable for their environment.
Just like fabrics and clothes, the fabrics and clothes of the Orc Empire are definitely not suitable for the 1960s, and other things are also not suitable.
If you want to prepare a New Year’s gift for the elders, you must buy it here. Anyway, Chen Xiayue is not bad, and you can buy it directly.
“Alright, prepare something for parents and grandparents. Don’t worry, I won’t forget my father-in-law and mother-in-law.” Zhang Chengchuan nodded her forehead.
She thinks of her parents and grandparents, of course he will not forget the parents who have raised her for so many years. For a body like his own daughter-in-law, who is called a “sick seedling” and a “medicine jar”, it is the result of the hard work of his father-in-law and mother-in-law that he can grow so big.
“Well, tomorrow I’ll make some more rice candy, peanut candy, melon seed candy, etc., and make a little more dessert, as if you bought it from the city. At that time, I will give my grandparents one point, and also give My mother’s family and my eldest sister sent some.” Chen Xiayue thought for a while and said.
“Okay.” Zhang Chengchuan has no objection, Chen Xiayue will not favor one over the other, her husband’s family and her parents’ family have all taken care of it, and he has nothing to refuse. Is your daughter-in-law so nice and generous? If you have money and ability, you don’t have to deduct it.
Perhaps the reason why Chen Xiayue and Zhang Chengchuan are so generous is because the things on the farm are easier to obtain and the quantity is quite large. Can’t find it.
