Chapter 91
A big pot was set up in the courtyard of the village brigade. When the village ate big pot rice, the stove left behind had not yet collapsed. There were two big pots, one for cooking and the other for stewing vegetables.

chopping board,
The pork from half a pig was cut into pieces, and stewed into braised pork in a short time, the fragrance filled the whole village.

Cabbage kakaka cut up,
Throw in tofu and vermicelli,

This kind of stewed meat dish, even during the Chinese New Year, many people can’t eat it at home. The villagers gathered around, smelling the aroma of rice and stewed vegetables wafting from the cauldron, and couldn’t help swallowing.

In order to cover up the embarrassment, he picked up the pipe and smoked a few puffs.

At the entrance of the brigade department, there are more people than the people around the big pot. The accounting commander of the brigade moved out a solid wooden table from the house, put a black and white TV on it, pulled wires out of the window, and made an antenna out of bamboo poles. , someone specially held it.

Brush brush ~!

Brush brush ~!

The accountant of the brigade tried to find a station, but no matter how he fiddled with it, it was snowflakes.

He cursed at the young man who was holding the pole next to him, "Tie Dan, hold it up so damn well, don't stretch your head and shrink your head all the time."

"Uncle, I can't see."

The iron egg station is located behind the TV.

"You can't even see the damn thing." The brigade accountant scolded.

All the men, women and children gathered outside laughed.

With unremitting efforts, the TV finally came out. It was an animal acrobatics show. When the animals were performing, there was an enthusiastic explanation by the host.

"Look, the little monkey jumped on the back of the goat. The goat was about to walk on the tightrope. The goat walked very steadily, but the little monkey was still doing somersaults on its back."

Men, women and children were immediately attracted by the program.

But the TV is too small, only 12 inches. There are hundreds of villagers watching outside, and the people inside are laughing and discussing the little monkey and the big grizzly bear. In the distance, they can't see anything at all, only a white dot can be seen.

And the voices were so noisy that they couldn't even hear the voice clearly.

"Keep your fucking voice down." The brigade accountant yelled into the loudspeaker.

After only a ten-second pause, they started to mess up again.

The accountant of the brigade saw that this was not possible, and suddenly had a flash of inspiration, and passed the microphone out of the window and placed it next to the TV speaker. The sound from the TV immediately came out from the big speaker in the village, and now the whole village could hear it.

The people behind were very dissatisfied at first, they couldn't see anyone and couldn't hear the sound, although they still couldn't see anyone, but there was sound anyway, so let's make do with it.

watch tv,

listen to the voice,
Laughter burst out from time to time in the brigade courtyard.

At this time, people's entertainment life is too poor, just a simple TV program can bring them endless happiness.

The rice is steamed.

The vegetables are stewed.

The accountant of the brigade shouted again through the loudspeaker, "Everyone is here for dinner. Today is the first day of the wedding banquet for Lin Yi, a young girl from the provincial capital, and the young girl from the Zuo family in our village. We invite everyone in the village to eat stewed meat, vegetables, and rice. Everyone bring the bowls and chopsticks by yourself, let’s make an agreement first, don’t bring the big pots of the mother, you can only eat but not bring it, I won’t give you a spoonful of food if anyone steals or cheats.”

Many people huffed and ran to the cauldron to line up for dinner.

A few years ago, the village ate big pots of rice and participated in militia training. It has long been a habit, and eating has to be queued, semi-militarized management. Although there is no big pot of rice now, the memories engraved in the bones have not been forgotten.

Two shovels of white rice,
A horse spoon of meat and vegetables,
The big sea bowl can also hold a bowl.

Squat down in a corner by yourself, snort and eat, it's really delicious.

A group of children, addicted to watching TV, don't even eat stewed meat dishes, for fear that they will lose their place when they come back, and their parents will come to them, kicking them a few times before running to pack their meals.

what a joy.

Maybe this is happiness, simple happiness.

Zuo Xiaoqing's family,

Zuo Dahong and his wife brought two pots of food, and they were the only ones in the village who could bring them back because they were the main family.

Originally, the Zuo family wanted to prepare some dishes for Lin Yi, but Lin Yi stopped them.

It's good to eat stew dishes.

have eaten,
Chatting with the family, Zuo Xiaowang, after all, is a child at heart and likes to be lively. He wants to go to the brigade to have a look, and also brag to his former friends.

Lin Yi said: "I've eaten too much, Xiaoqing, why don't we go out for a walk?"

"Okay." Zuo Xiaoqing readily agreed.

Lin Yi and Zuo Xiaoqing followed Xiaowang to the compound of the village brigade, saying that the compound actually didn’t even have a courtyard wall. Zuo Xiaowang went in to find friends to play, but Lin Yi and Zuo Xiaoqing didn’t go there with him, they just stood outside took a look.

Children and adults are all cheering.

How busy is it?

"Let's not go in, let's walk around the venue." Lin Yi said.

Zuo Xiaoqing nodded.

There is a collective threshing ground in the village, just beside the village, the area is large and flat, and there are many rice haystacks around it.

The moon is very full tonight, either fourteen or fifteen, and even without a light, you can see the road clearly. Lin Yi owes Zuo Xiaoqing's hand to walk under the moonlight, smelling the fragrance of straw.

Lin Yi suddenly thought of something,
asked with a smile:

"Xiaoqing, do you think that if the two of us knew each other here and grew up together as childhood sweethearts, would we be in haystacks?"

Zuo Xiaoqing cast a glance at Lin Yi,
"Who is going to drill into the haystack with you?"

At that time, drilling haystacks was synonymous with cheating.

She suddenly thought of something.

He burst out laughing.

"What are you laughing at?"

Lin Yi asked curiously.

"I think of an interesting event in our village." Zuo Xiaoqing said with a smile.

"tell me the story."

"Did you hear the voice saying that you are not allowed to bring pots for dinner?"

"heard it."

"That's the accountant of our village brigade. His surname is Zhao. According to the name in the village, I should call him Second Uncle. Second Uncle Zhao has an interesting story about drilling haystacks. I heard adults talking about it when I was young."

"Second aunt is also from our village, her surname is Zhang. When she was young, it seemed to be only five years or so. My second uncle graduated from junior high school and returned to the village to become a primary school teacher. At that time, my second aunt was still a big girl. The second aunt's family conditions were good. She is relatively fat, and has been fat since she was a child. In fact, my second aunt is not ugly, with big eyes and double eyelids, and her facial features are very correct."

"Second aunt and second uncle went to school together before,

The second aunt likes the second uncle.

The second uncle has no feelings for the second aunt.

The second aunt always went to look for the second uncle, but the second uncle didn't talk to her very much.

Once a movie was shown in the village, it was in this valley field,
The second uncle is considered a cultural person, and the village asked him to help the projectionist to make it together.

After watching the movie, it was past ten o’clock in the evening, and everyone in the village went back to sleep. The second uncle helped the projectionist put away the machine, and the brigade cadres took the projectionist to sleep. He dragged the second uncle in. "

"Your second aunt?" Lin Yi asked.

Zuo Xiaoqing smiled and nodded, "Yes, it's Second Aunt."

"Then they were in the haystack. Anyway, the next day, the Zhao family went to the second aunt's house to propose marriage. Later, it spread in the village. Do you know what the second uncle said?"

"How to say?"

"Second Uncle said that he originally refused to obey, but Second Aunt was fat and strong, and he was thin and weak at that time. The two of them were tossing around in the haystack. They were no match for Second Aunt, and finally had to obey Second Aunt."

After speaking, he giggled himself.

Lin Yi also laughed.

In fact, the matter of men and women,
pierced,
It will become much simpler.

The two continued to walk forward holding hands, Zuo Xiaoqing said: "Second Aunt has a very good personality and loves Second Uncle very much. Second Aunt does all the housework. Second Uncle stretches out his hands for clothes and opens his mouth for food. Some people say that Second Uncle is Second Aunt is a life of hard work to enjoy life, but Second Aunt is happy, she said she is happy to serve her man."

Speaking of this, Zuo Xiaoqing looked up at Lin Yi, "Brother, I will serve you like that in the future."

"Hehe, you are not afraid to make me a lazy person?"

"Don't be afraid, I'm happy with myself."

Lin Yi smiled and said: "Okay, then I will let you do laundry, cook, nurse the baby during the day, and sleep with me at night, and you have to be obedient in any poses. If you don't obey me and dare to make me angry, I will ask you Give you two punches."

Zuo Xiaoqing nodded firmly.

Lin Yi was taken aback.

Depend on,
What a silly woman.

Lin Yi leaned closer to Zuo Xiaoqing's ear, "Then let's dig into the haystack now."

Zuo Xiaoqing was taken aback,
Immediately shook his head.

Then he turned around and ran, Lin Yi smiled and chased after him.

The next day,

The day of the banquet.

With the help of her sister-in-law, Zuo Xiaoqing dressed up beautifully in her newly bought red dress.

Wake up in the morning,

Another big truck came,

The master chef of Huangshi No. [-] Garment Factory brought his two apprentices and some cooking utensils and seasonings.

Villagers helped set the table,

Zuo's yard is not small. There are six tables in his house and six tables in the neighbor's yard, so that 12 tables can be served at a time.

Doorway,

on the wall,

Red happy characters are posted on street corners.

In the two big pots on the side of the brigade, one stewed chicken and the other stewed duck. When the chicken and duck are stewed, they will be stewed with braised pork and rice.

Fortunately, there is no need to pick up the bride.
So Lin Yi was very relaxed, just chatting with relatives and friends.

nine o'clock.

Suddenly a car horn sounded outside.

Not long after, someone entered the room, "Brother Yi, brother Yi, we are here."

It turned out to be Jiang Wu and Li Xiangqian.

"Why are you here?" Lin Yi stood up happily.

Jiang Wu laughed and said: "Brother Yi, your marriage is such a big event, how can we be absent, and several other guys are clamoring to come, I said that Brother Yi will hold a banquet in Jiangcheng later, and the family needs They watched, but they didn't follow."

"How did you get here?"

"We came with Director Lu. Xiangqian and I arrived in Huangshi yesterday, and contacted Director Lu to come with him."

"Then Director Lu is here too?"

"Come here, chatting with the county magistrate here, and the secretary of their town, the secretary of the village party committee, etc. By the way, the directors of several factories have also come."

Lin Yi looked at Xiaoqing who was next to him, "Xiaoqing, some friends are here, do you want to meet me?"

Zuo Xiaoqing nodded sensiblely and went out with Lin Yi.

out the gate,

I saw several 212 jeeps parked in the distance of the street.

on the street,
A group of well-mannered people stood in the middle, smiling and chatting with each other, some Lin Yi knew and some didn't.

Many villagers around looked at them from a distance. They knew that these people who came in small cars looked like big shots. They didn't see that the village chief could only squeeze beside him with a smile on his face, and he couldn't even speak.

Lin Yi took Zuo Xiaoqing over.

"Brother Lu, Brother Liu, Director Zhou" Lin Yi greeted people he knew one by one. There were factory directors who cooperated with him in sales and sales, and there were also factory directors who received foreign exchange orders from Lin Yi. There were eight or nine in total. bit.

Director Lu smiled and said, "Lin Yi, let me introduce you to my good brother, Li Xueqin, who is also the magistrate of this county."

"Hello County Magistrate Li." Lin Yi immediately extended his hand with a smile.

County Mayor Li shook hands with Lin Yi, glanced at Zuo Xiaoqing, and said with a smile, "Congratulations to Manager Lin on his wedding."

"Last time, I troubled County Mayor Li about this matter at home. I always wanted to thank him in person, but I didn't find a suitable opportunity." Lin Yi was talking about the matter of Zuo Xiaoqing's family, of course.

"I really want to thank you?" County Magistrate Li said with a smile.

Lin Yi was taken aback for a moment,
He himself was being polite, but he didn't expect that County Mayor Li really wanted fertilizer because he really had something to do, but since he had said everything, Lin Yi would never be cowardly.

"Of course, you said."
