Wei Fengli didn't find any lamb or beef at the supply and marketing cooperative, but she did manage to get two rabbits.
These rabbits were quite plump, weighing over five pounds each.
At four yuan a pound, she could only afford one.
After washing and preparing it, she quickly stir-fried it.
By five o'clock, she had everything ready.
The chicken soup was in a rice cooker, and the rabbit meat was in a large thermos for Li Shiyan to take to Su Yijia's.
On her way, several aunties saw her and rushed over to ask what she was up to.
Li Shiyan just smiled without answering.
The aunties watched as she carried her things into Xia Weiguo's house.
Xia Weiguo hadn't been around lately, so they naturally didn't think Li Shiyan was there to see him.
They assumed she was going to ask Su Yijia for help in getting a job at the accessory factory.
Everyone thought she must have spent a lot, but no one believed she could succeed.
