Rebirth: My 80s

Chapter 18 The Pride of Guifei Lazy Man

The morning call for work ends.

Hu Yuying took her eldest daughter and a hoe on their shoulders and cut a path home from the bank between the fields.

"Mom, do you smell it?"

When she was still a hundred meters away from home, Li Yunshang suddenly stamped her feet and sniffed hard with the tip of her nose. It smelled so good!

"Who is cooking meat?"

The eldest girl took a sip of saliva.

I have no memory of the last time I ate meat.

Hu Yuying stroked her daughter's braids and said with a smile, "It's almost the end of the year. The brigade is killing pigs. If our family can share some of it, we'll be able to eat it soon."

Oh, it turns out that the last time I ate meat was during the Chinese New Year last year.

Thinking of this, the girl was very frustrated, "The pigs are distributed according to labor force. Our family only has two laborers. I can only count half of it, not much."

Last year, it was just a small bunch. There were many people in the family, so I felt like I had eaten, but also felt like I hadn’t.

Hu Yuying said with relief: "After this year's hard work, everything will be fine in the future. Your eldest brother is about to become a full-time employee. Your younger brother should also finish his studies this year. When he comes back, he will be a strong labor force, stronger than the two of us."

Li Yunshang was just about to say that his eldest brother wanted to get a wife, so he had no spare money to help the family.

Suddenly I heard my mother talking about my younger brother, and I couldn't help but feel sad, revealing a pair of beautiful pear dimples.

That's true.

Jiankun is so awesome.

Plowing fields, plowing fields, grinding rice, setting up water carts... I am good at all of them, and they are all technical tasks, and I can earn full work points.

If a certain guy wanted to know what she was thinking, he would feel ashamed: Sister, please stop talking, I am ashamed of my ancestors, I have forgotten my origin...

The further they go, the more strange the mother and daughter become. Why is the fragrance not light but strong?

When they walked to the fence of their house, the two looked at each other.

It seems to have floated out from my own home...

How can this be?

But the chimney was really smoking.

This is incredible!

Swish!
Li Yunshang threw off her long legs and rushed straight to the door.

"Oh, where did our family get the meat? And these things to eat!"

Sometimes, happiness comes so violently that it may not be a surprise, but may be a shock.

If the second sister was still a little uncontrollably excited, it was on her face.

The mother's expression was full of anxiety.

No need for them to question, Li Jiankun took the initiative to explain.

Then he explained how to discover business opportunities and how to get rewards, but he only simplified the process and obscured the income——

They probably brought back the food and the outfit as a so-called reward.

If you really take out the 400 yuan in your pocket, you will be scared if you don't keep it all.

Li Jiankun knew that his mother had a blue plaid handkerchief, which was a color that could never be erased from his childhood memory.

Every time when he went to school, his mother would carefully spread out the money and give him the largest pieces of cash.

My mother kept this habit of pretending to be money until she was old.

When he was looking for his household registration book a few days ago, he saw the blue plaid handkerchief again. There was money in it... 3 cents and 7 cents.

This is all their family's cash assets.

Hu Yuying breathed a sigh of relief, she couldn't make mistakes when working for the commune, team and enterprise.

"So, these things can be left behind?"

Li Yunshang asked uncertainly.

It turns out that this is the whole story... Guifei's lazy man laughed and waved his hand, "Then why can't we keep him? Wang Bingquan's money will not be in vain if he doesn't make it. He is the biggest loser in the whole commune!"

This guy has a deep prejudice against Lao Wang, believing that he is unrealistic, cheating, and taking advantage of all the benefits.

Well, they are of the same age.

Naturally, I don’t have a good impression of the commune either. If someone ties you up, try it...

"what!"

Li Yunshang was instantly overjoyed: "Jiankun, you are so awesome!"

A girly look on her face.

A certain item was held slightly, and he raised his hand to press it, "It's just so so..."

"Ah!" A scream came from my ears.

Li Jiankun thought there was an earthquake, but then he saw his mother lying on the stove, holding a spatula, and was heartbroken.

"You just stew these fatty meat slices like this?"

She looked at her husband in disbelief.

Guifei, a lazy man, didn't care, "What's wrong, I still have some left."

What's in the pot is white radish stew. It's quite a big pot, and it's pretty white, but don't tell me, it's very fragrant.

Li Jiankun guessed what his mother was going to say. Li Guifei was indeed not a person who lived in oil refining.

"You should refine the oil first, why not use the oil residue to make a stew?!"

I still remember that in those days, when my eldest brother got married and my second sister got married, he also started working. After the family conditions improved, my mother would often make a bowl of lard with fat meat and put it in a basket or hang it on the beam of the house.

Whenever I come home from work and the hot rice is served, my mother always signals to stir it first.

When mixed, the hot rice mixes with the cold oil at the bottom of the bowl, creating an alluring aroma.

Even if you don’t want any food, you can still finish the whole bowl.

Later, when my mother got older, she was no longer allowed to cook. Some restaurants also introduced lard bibimbap to create a sentimental style, which is a must-try whenever you encounter it.

But I can't taste the taste no matter what.

Guifei, a lazy man, scratched his head and said, "That's right."

"You you."

It hurt, but Hu Yuying was not willing to scold him.

"I'll do it, you get out, get out."

Li Jiankun was quite curious. Is there any other way to remedy this?
It turns out that he underestimated his mother.

Take out all the fatty meat slices, drain them, and fry them.

Pour the leftover lard residue back into the radish cubes and simmer over high heat for a few minutes. It will still be fragrant.

It's just what he wanted.

The only thing that didn't make sense was that the food was still old rice porridge.

The rice at home is really not enough to support another meal. Even the lazy people in Guifei who don't know how to live can realize this.

But even such a meal is still delicious, comparable to the Chinese New Year.

At the dinner table, Li Jiankun promptly raised his decision to take the college entrance examination.

"puff!"

Guifei, a lazy man, spit out his porridge with a mouthful.

Li Jiankun wiped his face, Ning is my father.

But, sister, why do you have this expression too?

You bite that piece of carrot in your mouth!

And...Mom?

"!!!"

Is it really that bad, buddy? I took the exam in my last life, even though I didn't pass it.

Guifei, a lazy man, wiped his mouth and didn't bother to clean up the mess. He stared and asked, "Are you serious?"

"More real than gold." Li Jiankun said angrily.

"Stop thinking about it?"

Miss you second uncle!
"Must take the exam!"

"Tsk, why don't you listen to my advice? You don't know what level you are at. Do you remember asking you to write Spring Festival couplets last year?

"The red plum blossoms are in bud and proud of the spring snow, and the green willow trees are blooming to welcome the new year. Your brother copied it from the county and gave it to you to write. What did you write?"
"The bud of a flower is written as the bun of a bun; the bud of a flower is written as the beard of a beard.

"I was beaten so hard by your brother and you forgot about it so quickly?

"Seriously, you're not as good as me."

Is there something about it?
Li Jiankun scratched his head and couldn't remember.

Hu Yuying looked at her son carefully and asked, "Kun'er, please think about it. I heard they said that the time is running out and the exam will start soon."

"Ok!"

After Hu Yuying was silent for a while, she smiled slightly and said, "Okay, then let's take the test."

Mom, I love you!
Li Jiankun is beaming with joy. It is enough to have the support of his old mother. Li Guifei, go and cool off!
"Yuying, you..."

Guifei, a lazy man, complained.

The exam is so easy, but you don’t have to pay money or buy some books, pen and paper?
Time is so tight, not to mention getting something to replenish your body, you have to eat and drink enough to have the strength to work hard.

How much overhead is this?

Even though he knew there was no chance, he still had to waste money in it.

孽 孽!
It's a pity that he has no say in this aspect.

He doesn't make any money either.

"His father, since the child has this intention, let him take the exam, otherwise he will blame us in the future."

Mom, you...

Li Jiankun was frozen on the spot as if struck by lightning. He was so angry that he couldn't even eat. He turned around and said, "Sister, do you think I can pass the exam?"

"Uh... you can."

Why do you have to, uh, why do you have to use the word "bar"?

I won’t be with you anymore!
