The Snail Spirit Travels to the 1970s

Chapter 509 A Gift from Li Jiuniang

It was like this when they were in their team, and it was still like this after I went to college. There were always these people around me, and it was impossible to sort them out.

Fortunately, Li Jiuniang's career seems to be developing quite well. In addition to a letter, there was also a package sent by Li Jiuniang to Tian Tian. It contained a lot of things, all of which were specialties from her city. There were many handmade rural specialties. Although they were not valuable things, the shipping fee for sending such a large package should be quite a bit of money.

Tian Tian put all these things in place, and then sent one copy to T Cangyun, Shen Lingling, and Chen Guihua's homes respectively. One copy was for Tian Tian to go to the county town to distribute to her aunt, Aunt Xiao, and her good friends.

With this in mind, there weren't many things left at home.

Tian Tian took all these things to Old Lady Tian, ​​such as dried shrimps, grilled shrimps, squid slices, and the dried fish she dried at home to make spicy yellow croaker.

Old Mrs. Tian had never made these things before, so she made some of them according to her own ideas. The taste was quite good and Tian Tian enjoyed it very much.

On the contrary, Lin Meiyu was not used to the fishy smell of seafood. After taking two bites, she stopped eating and kept picking up the pickled vegetables beside it.

Tian Lisong and Tian Yuan both like to eat these seafoods, especially the fried silverfish, which is sent to them from Li Jiuniang. The silverfish is still crispy. Just stir-fry it in the pan for a few times and sprinkle some salt on it, and it tastes great.

"This little silver fish is delicious. It would be even better if it is paired with a little wine." Tian Lisong is now in his forties, which is considered very old in this era. He didn't drink alcohol before, but now that he is older, he still drinks a small glass of wine whenever he has time.

It's not too much. Tian Lisong's team is busy. During the spring planting and autumn harvest, he is so busy that he has no time to drink. It's only now, during the slack season, that he drinks a small cup every two or three days.

The main reason is that wine is made from grains and is quite expensive. Tian Lisong is reluctant to spend money to buy too much wine. He only drinks a small glass when he is really craving for it.

"There were a lot of these silver fish delivered to me, but after I distributed them to each household, only this small plate is left. Dad, if you like to eat them, I will write to my friend and ask her to send some back." Tian Tian said.

"No need. This thing can't be eaten as food and it won't fill your stomach. Why bother with it? It's good enough to try it once. Don't bother your classmates all the time." Tian Lisong refused.

"It's okay. These little silver fish are actually not worth much money there. They're worth about the same as the hazelnuts and chestnuts from our mountain. When the time comes, we can also pack some of those chestnuts, hazelnuts, mushrooms, and fungus from our mountain and send it to her with the letter." Tian Tian said.

Since Li Jiuniang sent local specialties, Tian Tian should do the same and return the favor with local specialties.

Moreover, the mountain products in Northeast China are no worse than these seafood products.

The seafood sent by Li Jiuniang seemed to be quite expensive, but Li Jiuniang also said in the letter that these were all caught by farmers themselves and prepared by themselves. Because the quality and appearance were not particularly good and not qualified to be sold to the supply and marketing cooperatives, most of them were kept for their own consumption and were not worth much money.

Even the good ones can't be sold too expensively because they are very common there.

All the things that Tian Tian sent over were obtained by Li Jiuniang in exchange for other daily necessities from the farmers. He exchanged them for several large sacks. What he sent to Tian Tian was only a small part of it.

"These things are actually not worth much money at the seaside. You see those things seem to be very good, but actually they cannot be sold in the supply and marketing cooperatives. You can grab a handful of them at the seaside, and even if you pay for them, they are very cheap." Tian Tian said.

She had made up her mind and would write a letter to Li Jiuniang, asking Li Jiuniang to buy some seafood for her.

Over the years, Tian Lisong has no favorite food or hobbies. He eats whatever his family cooks and is not picky about food. If there is something he likes to eat, Tian Tian will definitely buy it for him.

After finishing the meal, I took some food to deliver to Tian Yun and Shen Lingling, and also went to digest the food.

Tian Yun immediately gave the things given to Tian Yun to Li Dahahua, and acted coquettishly to Li Dahahua, saying that he would make these for dinner in the evening.

When Li Dahua saw the things that Tian Tian sent over, she said they were good things. She didn't bother to be polite with Tian Tian and happily took the things and put them away.

When Tian Yun heard Tian Tian say that she was also going to Shen Lingling's house, she followed Tian Tian.

Shen Lingling did not lie on the kang to sew clothes at noon today. Instead, she wanted to boil water and wash her hair while the sun was shining brightly.

Her belly is getting bigger and bigger. She can neither squat nor bend her waist, and it is difficult to wash her hair. Shen Lingling can only bear it until she can't bear it anymore, and then ask Fang Siwen to help her boil water to wash her hair.

I am afraid of being exposed to the wind when washing my hair in the morning and evening, so I choose the time when the sun is at its hottest, so that I won’t feel cold.

Tian Tian brought seafood into the yard. Before she could get close to Shen Lingling, Shen Lingling covered her nose and took a step back. "What did you bring? Why does it smell so fishy?"

Tian Tian didn't expect that Shen Lingling's nose was still so sharp even in the third trimester of pregnancy. She quickly took the things and stood a little further back. "My friend sent me some local specialties from his place, including small whitebait and dried squid. I thought I'd bring them over for you to try! You can't eat them now!"

After Tian Tian stood far away, Tian Lingling put down her hand, sniffed and found that she no longer smelled the fishy smell. She let out a long sigh, "I don't know what happened. I don't have any dietary restrictions, but these days I smell a strange smell in everything. Even the cabbages planted in the field at home have a strong earthy smell."

Fang Siwen just came out at this time. He was just pouring hot water into the basin in the house. He heard what Tian Tian and Shen Lingling said, and smiled at Tian Tian: "Give me the things, I'll put them away."

Tian Tian immediately handed the things to Fang Siwen, "Luckily, these are all dry goods that have been stored for a long time. Lingling can't eat them now. After Lingling is out of confinement, you can make some for her to try. You don't have to worry about them going bad."

"Then I'd better wait until my baby is born, and then go and see what you have given me?!" Shen Lingling said.
