Some people say, don't show off, how can 1,000 yuan support a month. But the reality is right in front of us, what can we do?He just doesn't want to go to work, and every time he mentions it, it triggers an argument, and I, as a mother, don't want my children to grow up in a quarrelsome environment, so I choose to compromise.
We are slowly finding a new balance in our lives. Reducing expenses has become the consensus of our whole family. Today is our big set, just in time for the weekend, we made a list and started shopping after breakfast.
There are so many people, and the black pressure is full of people. Everyone carries a large bag in their hands, and Chinese cabbage has become a must-have for almost everyone. I rarely catch a market in the city, partly because I rarely have weekends, and partly because the distance is a bit long and I'm a bit lazy.
Towards the end of the year, there are more and more places that need to spend money, adults can eat poorly, but children can't, so my husband and I hit it off and took out 300 yuan for a big purchase.
Today, our procurement results are rich and varied. Beef is purchased at a price of 37 yuan per catty, a total of 43 yuan;Pork ribs (including ribs and spine) are purchased at 15 yuan per catty, with a total price of 110 yuan.
We wrapped the ribs individually and planned to try a new way of cooking them – sweet and sour ribs. In addition, we bought seasonal fruits and vegetables such as apples, mandarins, bananas, cauliflower, spinach, cabbage and potatoes.
What's even more gratifying is that we finally found the sweet potatoes and hawthorn sticks that I remember full of age, they are the snacks I had to eat in winter when I was a child, and they are also the things that my mother must buy when she took me to the market.
Childhood memories filled the trunk and found that the 300 yuan could buy a lot of things. In the past, it may have been spent on a single meal, but now in this special period, its value is different, it may be our two weeks' meal money.
The only fly in the ointment is that I was deceived, although my husband later recovered the difference, but I was still panicked. Other companies sell pork ribs for yuan, but the one I was looking for looked like the owner was good, and there was not much meat, so I bought it for 17 yuan.
When I was about to pay, my husband came over with the children, asked ** and said it was too expensive, and then started a tug-of-war with the boss. In the end, the boss's face was ugly, and he left 10 yuan less, but I still felt uncomfortable.
looked at the people who made people trust, but I didn't expect it to be the deepest routine. Passers-by came and went, and many students gathered in groups to buy things together, looking at their youthful faces, and began to miss their former selves and the carefree days at that time.
At the bazaar, there are so many delicacies that I will never forget. I'm a nostalgic person, probably because I'm a little unhappy right now. But when I saw my son's curious eyes looking around, I really wanted to give him everything I thought was good.
It's a bit messy to write today, but in general, life has a variety of ways. Whether it's bitter or sweet, we have to face it. And as adults, our best choice is to turn bitter into sweet and face everything bravely.
I've got a plan for this month's menu.
