When Qiao Mei heard what he said, she suddenly thought of something that Auntie Dong had said to her. She pondered for a moment before saying, "If the supply and marketing cooperative really needs fresh bean sprouts, that can be done. There's another way!"
"What?" Chen Hu exclaimed in surprise.
It did not matter to him. Without the bean sprouts, there were other types of food to replace it. It was not as if he must always have dishes cooked with these bean sprouts. However, his wife really liked these crispy bean sprouts very much and always urged him to get some.
Qiao Mei stopped sewing and looked up at Qiao Qiang. "Grandfather, please go and get Uncle Zhao. We need to discuss something with him."
When Qiao Qiang heard this, he did not speak again.
He just stood up and walked out to look for the village officer, Zhao Liang.
Soon, Zhao Liang came in with Qiao Qiang.
Qiao Mei introduced the two men to each other.
