70s factory beauty, transform villain cubs to become rich

Chapter 260 Wan Anlang

At four o'clock the next morning, it was so cold that every breath I exhaled produced white mist.

He Yuan and He Yuxiang met up and headed towards the supply and marketing cooperative.

Footsteps crunched on the frosty road.

Seeing that He Yuxiang didn't have gloves, He Yuan took off his own gloves and gave them to him: "Don't get frostbite from the cold."

He Yuxiang wanted to refuse.

He Yuan forcefully made him put on the gloves.

He Yuxiang looked even warmer wearing gloves.

He was actually wearing very thick clothes.

He wore the rabbit fur vest, cotton-padded clothes, and cotton-padded pants that his aunt had made for him.

He's warmer now than in previous years.

It was only five o'clock in the morning, and the gates of the supply and marketing cooperative were still closed, but a lot of people had already gathered at the entrance.

Under the dim streetlights, people were wearing thick cotton-padded clothes. Some sat on their own small stools, while others stood and paced back and forth.

He Yuan and He Yuxiang found a spot near the front and stood there.

A woman wearing a green headscarf in front of them said in a low voice, "I heard there are only two pigs today."

"I heard that the pork at the supply and marketing cooperative was sold out in ten minutes yesterday."

Someone agrees.

They all frowned, looking extremely worried.

He Yuxiang was very worried. His uncle only had two days off, and he didn't know how much pork he could manage to buy today.

As soon as the sun peeked out, the wooden door of the supply and marketing cooperative creaked open.

The crowd immediately stirred, like a hornet's nest that had been poked.

He Yuan immediately took He Yuxiang's hand.

He Yuxiang felt a little awkward.

In his memory, his father had never held his hand like that before.

But the supply and marketing cooperative was crowded, so he felt safe being led by his uncle.

"Don't push! Take your time!"

Salesman Lao Zhang shouted at the door, but no one listened to him.

The line instantly broke apart as people surged forward in a rush.

Upon entering the supply and marketing cooperative, one would see several large meat cutting boards already set up, piled high with fresh pork.

The crowd surged toward the meat counter like a tidal wave, instantly filling the entire counter to capacity.

"I want five jin!"

"I want three jin!"

"Cut me a piece first!"

……

The noise continued, and the sales clerks were busy weighing and cutting the meat.

I didn't even hear clearly who was who.

Anyway, whoever gets the card gets it.

A salesperson stood on a stool and shouted through a megaphone: "Each person is limited to two jin (1 kg). You can only buy two jin. You can't take any more out of the supply and marketing cooperative."

He Yuan and He Yuxiang immediately bought four jin (2 catties).

Two pounds of fatty meat, two pounds of pork belly.

After getting the pork, the two struggled to squeeze their way out of the crowd.

Old Mrs. Qin was both jealous and envious when she saw He Yuan buy four catties of pork in no time.

When it comes to fighting over meat, men are the best at it.

But her two sons complained that she had to get up too early and asked her to come more often to buy pork.

Anyway, based on previous years' experience, if she comes for a few more days, she'll always be able to snag some pork, so why let them waste their time?

Old Mrs. Qin wanted to ask He Yuan for help.

She tried to squeeze out, but couldn't; she could only stay in the middle.

After giving the money, the uncle and nephew quickly left the supply and marketing cooperative.

He Yuan asked, "Is four jin enough?"

"It should be about the same."

In order to prepare for the New Year, he had asked Grandpa Zhang in advance to help him get three catties of cured meat.

Seven pounds of meat.

That's already quite extravagant.

An old man was still standing at the door. When he saw He Yuan and He Yuxiang come out, he asked, "Is there a lot of meat inside?"

He Yuxiang shook his head: "When we bought it, almost all the pork had been sold out."

Sure enough, the salesperson shouted, "Sold out! Both pigs are sold out!"

An old man pounded his chest and stamped his feet, saying, "I've been waiting here for three days, and I still haven't managed to get one."

He Yuxiang felt very sorry for him.

At the same time, I am extremely grateful that my uncle came back at the most critical time.

The uncle and nephew spent the rest of the day preparing for the New Year.

When Chen Qing got off work, he saw the fried food at home and said, "Can we really keep it until the New Year? It smells so good!"

She really wants to eat it right now.

He Yuxiang: "We have to wait until after the Lunar New Year to eat it."

Chen Qing asked incredulously, "Really?"

"real."

He Yuxiang nodded emphatically.

Chen Qing was disappointed.

Xiao Yu looked completely listless.

It's so frustrating to have such delicious-smelling food at home, but only be able to look at it and not eat it.

Chen Qing asked He Yuxiang, "Won't it spoil if you leave it like this?"

"will not."

Even if it goes bad, it will only turn slightly sour. Eating it when it turns sour won't kill you.

He Yuxiang is very experienced in this area.

Chen Qing sighed again.

Xiaoyu was very upset.

Chen Qing then asked, "How are your grades?"

He Yuxiang: "It's just like that."

Xiaoyu: "Double 100".

"Great!"

Chen Qing rewarded each person with one yuan.

Xiaoyu habitually gives money to her brother.

He Yuxiang felt that the greatest significance of getting a perfect score was that his aunt was very happy.

He Yuan discussed with He Yuxiang: "How about we steam some fried dough sticks first? Or we can take out the shrimp chips and eat them first?"

"No, they'll keep asking for more after they eat it."

He Yuxiang firmly refused.

This is for the New Year!
He Yuan returned defeated and shrugged at Chen Qing.

"He won't allow it."

"Never mind, then I won't eat it."

Chen Qing was helpless.

The family packed up and headed to the state-run restaurant.

At the state-run restaurant, Chen Qing was pleasantly surprised to see shrimp cakes!

"Fifteen are needed."

The waitress at the state-run restaurant was the same older woman. Seeing that Chen Qing ordered so much, she smiled and said, "I heard that you two got promoted. Congratulations!"

"thanks, thanks."

Chen Qing replied with a smile.

He Yuan also expressed his gratitude.

He really appreciated the phrase "young couple".

The family ordered first and waited for He Yuan's friend to arrive.

Wan Anlang arrived late and apologized to them, "I'm sorry, I got lost."

He Yuan calmly replied, "It's nothing."

He's used to it.

He introduced both parties to each other.

Wan Anlang was dressed in a blue Zhongshan suit. He was about 1.8 meters tall, with a straight posture, thick hair, and bright, spirited eyes.

Chen Qing looked at the person in front of him and smiled, "Hello, Comrade Wan."

When Wan Anlang saw that Chen Qing was He Yuan's girlfriend, he smiled and said, "Hello, sister-in-law."

When he arrived at the machinery factory today, he met Chen Qing and was very impressed.

There was such a beautiful woman in the machine factory. He heard she was the factory's most beautiful girl and she even had a boyfriend. He was a little disappointed.

When he saw that Chen Qing was He Yuan, he felt they were a perfect match.

Wan Anlang presented Chen Qing with a gift he had prepared in advance: "This is a local specialty of our hometown, fried dough twists. They are very delicious. You can try them."

Chen Qing accepted it: "Thank you."

Xiao Yu stared intently.

Chen Qing broke off a branch for her.

He Yuxiang glared at his aunt.

Chen Qing pretended not to see it.

Xiaoyu nibbled at the food little by little, just like a hamster, her eyes crinkling with laughter.

Wan Anlang was a talkative person. He asked Xiaoyu, "Is it delicious?"

Xiao Yu nodded happily, her eyes squinting. "It's super, super delicious! Thank you, Uncle. Your hometown must be wonderful."

Wan An laughed heartily: "You really know how to talk."

The food had already been served, and everyone started eating after he arrived.
