Chapter 390 What else can I save?
The next morning, both of them changed into new clothes.
Anjiu sincerely wishes his grandma a happy new year.
There is no custom of giving New Year's money in the beehive, but grandma prepared new knee pads for her.
Anjiu happily wrapped it around his knees. The layer of fur next to his skin was soft and thick, which did not affect his walking, and he no longer felt the cold wind blowing in.
My grandmother has bad teeth and was worried that the bones would not be cooked through if they were stewed too late. After making sure that the bones were the right size and did not need to be cut, she quickly went to the next room to stew the meat.
After Anjiu finished washing up, he sat on a chair and unpacked the nuts he had brought yesterday and put them on a plate. He took out a few handfuls of melon seeds, peanuts, pistachios, hazelnuts, cashews, and pine nuts, so that the nuts looked abundant and beautiful.
The other plate contains candies, including toffee candies, fruit candies, QQ candies, cereal candies, chocolate candies, jelly... everything you can think of.
Anjiu opened a peach candy, ate the big one himself, and stuffed the small crumbs into 1009's mouth.
"Happy New Year~"
1009's lips were nearly cut by the sharp edge. He reluctantly rubbed the burning corners of his lips with his fingertips, "Happy New Year."
He also changed into new clothes, combed his hair neatly, and stood at attention cleanly.
Anjiu withdrew her gaze and put a few bags of dried fruits and candied fruits, as well as hawthorn rolls, which she didn't like at all, on the sugar.
Place the fruit plate in the middle of the table, place two assorted cans behind it, and place an empty plate next to it for the fruit shells and candy wrappers.
"It's a pity that fruits don't last long and can't be stored, otherwise we could have one more New Year's item."
Anjiu shook his head regretfully and put raisins and sun-dried tomatoes in beautiful bowls.
"Let's just eat it like this~"
"..."1009 slowly turned his head and looked at the things on the table and was silent for a long time.
Anjiu hummed a little tune and took out the bouquet of flowers that had been dried earlier, put it in a vase and placed it in a conspicuous place.
Then he got up and went to help grandma.
……
Grandma turned over the meat at the bottom of the pot, sat on a stool, looked at the fire, and told her stories of the past.
Anjiu likes to listen to stories told by the older generation. She would go back to the room to get a fruit plate, eat while listening, and occasionally sigh that it was not easy, giving her grandmother enough emotional value.
As he was speaking, there was a gentle knock on the door.
It was A Ling who came with her two children to wish everyone a happy new year.
"Come and sit down." Grandma stood up with a smile and asked them to sit down and talk.
The two children said very obediently: "Happy New Year, Grandma, Happy New Year, Auntie."
"Okay, everything is fine, you are fine too." Grandma touched their little heads and smiled so hard that her teeth were visible.
Anjiu also wished A Ling a happy new year, put the fruit plate on the table, and waved to the two children to come over and have some candy.
There is no child in the world who doesn’t like sweets. When they heard that there was candy to eat, their eyes began to light up, but they didn’t dare to move. They crowded around A Ling’s legs and watched eagerly.
Ah Ling said embarrassedly: "No, you can keep these expensive things and wine for yourself. I just came here to wish you a happy new year and will leave now."
"Why are you in such a hurry? I was just about to call you over." Grandma picked a piece of meat from the pot, put it in a bowl and placed it next to her. "Try how it tastes, is it sweet or salty? Children, don't be in a hurry. Wait until the meat is stewed and mushy, and then grandma will give it to you."
Ah Ling stood up and waved her hands, "Auntie, I know you cook, it must taste just right, I won't taste it, Auntie, I have something else to do at home, I have to go back."
As she spoke, she took the children's hands and hurried to the door.
An Jiu grabbed two handfuls of candy and stuffed them into the two children's arms, "Auntie gave them to me, take them and eat them."
"Oh, Xiaojiu, this won't do--" A Ling was frightened and quickly asked them to return it.
An Jiu stopped her and said softly, "Just let them eat it. Children, of course, like to eat candy. It's rare to celebrate the New Year, let them be happy too."
Grandma also said, "A Ling, take it. It's New Year's Day."
The two children held the candies in their arms and looked up at their mother. If their mother said no, they would also firmly say no.
Ah Ling knew that it would be meaningless to give in again, so she blushed and said, "Hurry up and thank Auntie and Grandma."
That means you can take it back and eat it!
The children grinned and said thank you in clear and crisp voices.
Seeing how sensible and cute they were, Anjiu was in a good mood and gave them two more handfuls of nuts and dried fruits.
The two children looked at her with sparkling eyes.
"That's too much..." A Ling didn't dare to stay any longer, so she pulled the child by the collar and walked back.
After hearing the door closing as they returned home, grandma got up and poured the meat in the bowl back into the pot to cook.
"I guess A-Ling must have heard you get up, so she hurried over to wish you a happy new year. Otherwise, it would be difficult for her to come over when we start eating."
Everyone knows that a small restaurant can only be run by small wine, and the small wine is the boss behind the scenes. It is normal for A Ling to have such an idea.
Anjiu also thought of this.
If it were her, she would do the same, and maybe even flatter even louder - in order to raise a child, face and dignity should be put aside for the time being, because nothing is more important than keeping the people you care about alive.
Grandma was thinking about what to cook next. Suddenly she remembered something and asked, "Xiaojiu, are you sure you can get a pig every day? Or should I cook less meat?"
There are only two of them. Even if they can drink a lot, can they eat half a pig in one meal?
There aren't many people coming to eat now, so there's no need to cook too much. Just make less so that you can have fresh food for every meal.
After hearing what grandma said, Anjiu remembered the time limit of the copy card.
If the pig copied yesterday is not eaten within the valid time, the remaining meat will disappear.
"How about I sell it on the black market?"
It is inappropriate to give gifts. If the other party keeps the meat and is reluctant to eat it, and then finds out the next day that the meat is gone, it may get you into trouble.
"No one goes out now, everyone stays at home." Knowing that the meat would disappear, the grandmother was extremely anxious, "How can it disappear even if I have cooked it?"
"Well," Anjiu consoled, "Just disappear, it's no big deal. Anyway, I can clone a pig every day, so I have enough to eat."
She suspected that she might eat so much pork that she would vomit in the future, because according to her grandmother's personality, she would not waste food, so pork would appear in all three meals a day, such as braised pork, pork ribs stewed with dried beans, pork elbows, and braised bones... In the end, when all the vegetables were gone, the pork would have to be stewed dry and eaten with soy sauce.
But, let’s talk about the future later. She still wants to eat meat now.
"..."
Grandma looked back at the meat she had prepared, hesitated for a moment, and walked out without saying a word.
A moment later, he came back with two large bags of ribs and two large pork elbows.
"It'll be gone tomorrow anyway, why bother making anything else? Just pick the best ones!"
