Chapter 1912 Passerby Female Educated Youth 54

"My child is about to cry." Although they have never eaten fish stewed in an iron pot, they can tell from the word "stew" that it requires stewing.

No matter whether it is fish or pork, once stewed, the smell will be absolutely intoxicating. Adults can still tolerate it, but how can children tolerate it?

Don't think that they are buying all kinds of New Year goods now, but that is all in preparation for the Spring Festival and it is impossible for them to spend them now.

"At least Zhang Wei and his friends don't catch so many fish when they go fishing." Everyone said that Zhang Wei and Zhang Jie were better because they didn't catch so many fish, which made them envious and jealous. And most of the fish this girl caught would be eaten on the same day.

"You are such a spendthrift. Don't you know how to save money? Are you going to eat tomorrow?"

"But she'll still go fishing tomorrow," whispered a neighbor.

As soon as these words were spoken, all those who had been saying that Zhang Yu was a spendthrift and didn't know how to live shut up. If she was a spendthrift woman, then there would be few who weren't.

No matter how helpless everyone was, what else could they say? Wouldn't it be offending people for nothing if they didn't let Zhang Yu come back to celebrate the New Year?

Soon everyone changed the topic and stopped talking about topics related to the Zhang family, otherwise they would be really angry to death.

Zhang Yu returned home carrying a bucket of water. Just as he put the bucket down and was about to eat something and take a rest, he heard a knock on the door.

What was going on? She had clearly told them downstairs that the two fish would be stewed in the evening, so why was there still someone knocking on the door?

When she opened the door, she found it was Aunt Liu downstairs. "Aunt." Zhang Yu remembered that Yao Ying had mentioned before that Aunt Liu's daughter-in-law finally had a child, but she had insufficient milk.

Zhang Yu immediately understood why the other party came over, "Change the fish."

Aunt Liu hummed, a little embarrassed, "Well, well, your brother Liu is on a business trip, I have to stay at home to take care of the children and my daughter-in-law."

"Aunt Liu, what did you say? My parents were busy with work before, and you took good care of Xiaojie and me." Zhang Yu went straight to the kitchen and took out a fish weighing more than two kilograms and stuffed it into Aunt Liu.

Aunt Liu hummed, "Thank you."

After eating a piece of cake and drinking a sip of hot water, Zhang Yu felt like he was alive again.

After a break, they started to process the fish. When Zhang Wei and his colleagues got off work, they smelled the scent of braised fish while they were still downstairs.

Zhang Jie’s first reaction was, “My sister had a good harvest today.”

Zhang Wei hummed, "Yes."

Several neighbors saw the father and son and said with a sour tone, "You are finally back."

"That's right, your Xiaoyu had a good catch today, he caught two fish..." The neighbor paused, "One weighed more than two kilograms, and the other weighed more than three kilograms."

When Zhang Jie heard that Zhang Yu had caught two fish today, he looked incredulous. This was really beyond Zhang Yu's ability.

After hearing the weight, “This is my sister’s level.”

Zhang Wei also nodded, "Yes."

Seeing the expressions of the father and son, everyone really didn't want to talk to them, so they pouted their lips and made way for them.

As soon as Zhang Jie entered the door, he said, "Sister, you had a good catch today. You caught two fish, weighing more than five kilograms."

"Yeah, so we're having fish stew in an iron pot today, and then corn tortillas."

"Today we ate more than three pounds of fish."

What? When Zhang Jie heard that his family had eaten a fish weighing more than three kilograms today, he was incredulous. You know, his sister's attitude is that today's catch cannot be left for tomorrow.

"Sister, did you pickle a fish?" But the more I thought about it, the more it didn't seem right. I had already said before that we had enough salted fish at home, so why did we need to pickle another one?

"No, Aunt Liu came to see me."

The father and son understood, "Xiao Liu is driving to the northeast this time. I guess it's almost enough to catch some fish before he leaves."

Zhang Yu knew that Liu Jiating took good care of them, but she didn't expect that he actually worked as a truck driver. This is an incredible job, one of the eight major officials.

"Brother Liu shouldn't be short of milk powder tickets." It's normal for a driver to help carry things and earn some money.

"That's true, but there aren't many milk powder coupons, and the baby is getting older and has a bigger appetite."

"That's right." Zhang Yu thought about it. There was nothing he could do. The supply of materials was so tight right now. It wasn't like you could solve these problems just by having money.

Not long after, Yao Ying also arrived home. As soon as she entered the house, she asked, "Xiao Yu, are you giving Aunt Liu a fish today?"

Zhang Yu hummed, "It's a good harvest today. I brought back two fish."

"Then I also exchanged some cloth coupons and other things." These are all local coupons, "mostly they will expire next month."

If it was a national ticket, she could still take it away, but the tickets here can only be left at home. "By the way, Dad, they didn't get anything, why did they exchange it with me."

Zhang Yu had felt it was strange before, but she just agreed to the ticket because they gave it to her, so she couldn't ask why she had to change it.

After listening to this, Zhang Wei and his friends asked about the other party's appearance and said, "After they changed, they would change with the neighbors or the leaders."

Zhang Yu understood immediately after hearing this. He expected that if he exchanged with his neighbors, the things he would get would be more beautiful. As for exchanging with his leaders, there were more things to consider.

"By the way, Dad, why haven't you ever thought about switching places with your leader?" You see, no matter when, there are always people who want to use connections to make friends with their leaders.

"What should I change?" Zhang Wei directly rejected Zhang Yu's proposal. "I'm already eye-catching enough. If the leader takes care of me in various ways, I'm worried. I don't know how he will treat me."

Okay, that’s true. Why did the original owner have to become an educated youth? Wasn’t it because someone was jealous of the Zhang family?

"By the way, Mom, what did Aunt Liu give you?" Zhang Yu really wanted to know what Aunt Liu had exchanged with her family.

"Tomorrow at noon, you and Aunt Liu go to the department store to buy defective items." Yao Ying originally wanted to go by herself, but she had something to do tomorrow at noon and could not go.

Defective product? Of course Zhang Yu knows this thing. It depends on the specific situation. However, the item does not require a ticket. This one is really beautiful and there is really no way to resist it.

There is not much of this stuff and it is never circulated outside because there is not enough to distribute inside and there is no way it can be circulated outside.

"Aunt Liu's daughter-in-law works in the department store, and her sister-in-law works in finance there." Yao Ying whispered.

Oh, oh, oh, Zhang Yu understood. It turned out that he was an internal staff member. This made sense. "Okay, I will follow Aunt Liu tomorrow."

Bringing her in doesn't mean she can buy everything she sees. She still has to follow the rules. In short, there is nothing wrong with following Aunt Liu.

Yao Ying wanted to give Zhang Yu some pointers, but this girl was so sensible that she immediately knew what to do. "Okay."

"I heard from your Aunt Liu that there were defective sheets."

Yes, Zhang Yu immediately understood what he meant, "I will choose a bed sheet tomorrow."

"Pick the ones you like and bring them to the farm when the time comes."
