There are green leafy vegetables, eggplants, peppers, radishes, and the like, which are vegetables that can be usually seen.

Basically, each family in the production team has a small private plot, and most of them will plant all kinds of vegetables. Some will also grow potatoes, sweet potatoes, and other grains, aside from the regular vegetables. In this way, in addition to the foodstuffs distributed by the production team, they can also grow some in their own homes.

In this era of scarcity of supplies, everyone has survived this way.

When cooking the noodles, Zhao Xiulan asked Zhao Xiuzhu to pull out a handful of green leafy vegetables, so she can cook them together with the noodles.

There was no grease in the pot, so she put some salt in it, and even this made people drool.

Because they are so poor, they can’t eat enough on normal days. They used to eat that kind of watery dish every night. Now that they encounter noodles, even if it’s the bitter sorghum noodles, it’s still a good thing that they can’t ask for.

Zhao Xiuzhu looked at the noodles that were in the boiling pot, and couldn’t stop swallowing saliva into her stomach.

“Sister, I really want to eat now!”

Zhao Xiulan smiled slightly, “It’s already boiling, so just wait a minute.”

“Hmm, okay!” Zhao Xiuzhu responded, but she still stared at the pot of noodles, reluctant to move away.

After another two minutes of cooking, Zhao Xiulan sprinkled the chopped green onions in and began to serve the noodles in a bowl.

She first served Zhao Weiguo a large bowl. Zhao Weiguo is a man who did heavy work. He eats more food than them, so he naturally needs more.

Needless to say, for Ma Yumei, if you give her less, she will have to make trouble, right? She would definitely make a fuss using the baby in her womb again and say something in front of Zhao Weiguo.

Li Lijuan was so angry that she went into her room just now, and Zhao Xiulan was too lazy to be bothered about her, so she really doesn’t want to give any amount to her. If she likes to eat, then she can eat; but if she doesn’t want to eat, then just let it go. Who’s going to spoil such a grown-up girl already?

Heh, it’s better if she doesn’t eat, so that the remaining portion can be distributed more to the rest of the family.

Zhao Xiulan gave herself and Zhao Xiuzhu another bowl each, which was not as heavy as Zhao Weiguo and Ma Yumei.

Zhao Xiuzhu is still young, so she couldn’t eat much. One bowl of noodles is enough, but 200 grams of noodles is still not enough.

Zhao Xiulan doesn’t like eating sorghum noodles very much. She thinks that it is too bitter. There is no grease in the noodles, so she plans to secretly go back to her room to give herself a special treatment later. There are plenty of things to eat in the space, what is better than that?

“Dad, Auntie Mei, it’s time to eat!”

Zhao Xiulan brought out the bowls of noodles and put them on the table, and then called Zhao Weiguo and Ma Yumei out to eat, but did not call Li Lijuan to come out to eat.

When he heard that the noodles were ready, Zhao Weiguo immediately rushed to the table, and Ma Yumei couldn’t wait to get out of their room as well.

She didn’t have enough meal at noon, so she was really hungry a long time ago.

Especially Zhao Weiguo, who is only one-third full at noon. And after another day of heavy work, his stomach is now rumbling with hunger.

Seeing the noodles on the table, he sat down and held the bowl, and couldn’t wait to eat.

Zhao Xiulan hurriedly reminded him, “Dad, it’s too hot, take your time, eat slowly!”

A silly smile appeared on the tall man’s face, and Zhao Weiguo was a little embarrassed and said, “Dad hasn’t eaten noodles for a long time, so I was a little excited just now.”

Although it was a joke, it revealed the sadness of people in this era.

Ma Yumei was not much better. She blew the noodles and stuffed them straight into her mouth after it cooled down a bit.

Zhao Xiulan is much gentler and Zhao Xiuzhu also eats in small bites. For the Zhao family, it is a very happy thing to be able to eat a full meal of sorghum noodles.

After hearing the movement outside, Li Lijuan came out of the room and saw the whole family sitting together to eat noodles, but she didn’t have her portion, nor did she see an extra bowl of noodles on the table.
