Chapter 29: Open Meat

Huo Chunhua was afraid that Zhao Baoshan would be unhappy, so she immediately sat down and started eating.

Zhao Baoshan didn't say anything.

In ancient times, men were everything. Even a woman like Huo Chunhua was extremely obedient to her man.

Li Cuiying swallowed her saliva and smiled at Huo Chunhua. "Mother, when are we going to get some meat to eat? We haven't seen any minced meat since the New Year, and there isn't even a bit of oil in the dishes. The boys in the family are growing, so they can't keep eating these. We should buy some good food to nourish them from time to time. "

Li Cuiying made it sound nice. She kept talking about her children, but the truth was that she wanted to eat. She was too embarrassed to say it out loud at her age, so she could only use her children as an excuse.

Considering that the Old Zhao family hadn't split up, the money that the family earned was all given to Huo Chunhua. Moreover, they couldn't keep it for themselves. Otherwise, if Huo Chunhua found out about it, she would scold them for a few days and nights.

Usually, when they weren't busy with farm work, the men in the family would find some work to do. If they went to town or the city to help, they could earn more than ten copper coins a day.

All of this money had to be given to Huo Chunhua. However, when Huo Chunhua was in a good mood, she would leave some for the family to spend as pocket money.

Zhao Wenhua worked diligently and earned more money in the hopes that Huo Chunhua would be happy and leave him a few copper coins. In other words, he could use this money to buy some food to help Zhao Yun 'er. However, he didn't have a single copper coin in his private savings.

Huo Chunhua glared at Li Cuiying. "Eat, eat, eat, all you know is to eat! Don't think that I don't know what you're thinking. You're the one who wants to eat, and you're dragging the child into it. "

Not only was Li Cuiying not angry, she even smiled apologetically and said, "Mother, you've misunderstood. I really didn't do it for myself. I'm just telling the truth. Our Old Zhao family isn't that poor. It's not a big deal to buy some meat for the family to enjoy, right? "

Huo Chunhua still glared at Li Cuiying unhappily. "A catty of meat costs 15 copper coins. If you have the ability to earn it back, I'll buy meat for you!"

Li Cuiying curled his lips. She didn't say anything, but in her heart, she was cursing Huo Chunhua. That stingy old woman. If she could earn 15 copper coins, she would buy it herself secretly. Why would she need to buy meat for the family to enjoy?

Zhao Ping 'er poked the cabbage and said to Huo Chunhua, "Grandmother, I think Second Aunt is right. We haven't eaten meat for months, and there's no oil in the vegetables. Zhao Yun 'er can eat meat. We can't live worse than her, right?"

Huo Chunhua was annoyed at the mention of Zhao Yun 'er. She felt that Zhao Pinger's words were also reasonable. Their family's life couldn't be worse than Zhao Yun 'er's, so she said, "That's fine. Tomorrow, I'll go and weigh a catty of pork back for you to eat."

As soon as Huo Chunhua finished speaking, the people at the table were unusually excited. They were looking forward to eating pork tomorrow.

The next morning, Zhao Yun 'er got up when the sky was still dark.

Her eyes were still a little sleepy. She didn't sleep well.

Yesterday, she entrusted Doudou to her two younger brothers. Zhao Tianan and Zhao Tianfu came over early and also got up before dawn.

Zhao Yun 'er went out with confidence.
