In these times, even ordinary families may not be able to afford big fish and meat for the New Year.
If the dish has a bit of meat, it counts as a meat dish.
Chen Yan took a bite of a cabbage and pork stuffed dumpling, looked at the braised fish and ribs with beans on the table, and couldn't help but exclaim, "We're eating like this already, and it's not even New Year's Eve?"
Are we not living for tomorrow?
Although money isn't tight at home... Chen Yan being an only child, there's no need to worry about saving for a dowry. The old couple makes good money selling dried goods, so life isn't too pinched. They're considered well-off on this street.
But not rich enough to eat meat every day.
Old Man Chen glared at her fiercely, "Does eating meat still not shut you up?"
"Alright, alright, I won't ask anymore."
Chen Yan buried her head and devoured the dumplings.
Women in these times don't have to worry about losing weight; being able to eat is a blessing.
