A good time for farming through the ages

Chapter 441 [441] Courtyard Style (2000+)

By the time they arrived at the vegetable market, the fresh shrimps had already been sold out, and there was not even a scrap of spare ribs left, let alone beef and mutton.

The situation in recent years has been better than in previous years, but there are too many people, and many supplies cannot keep up.

In the past, beef and mutton could only be bought by Hui people, and Han people had no connections, so it was difficult to get it.

If you catch it right now, you can eat more or less, but you have to catch up early. The vegetable market is overcrowded every morning, which is not unreasonable.

When they come over from get off work, won't there be nothing left?

In particular, their family opened a shop, and they had to queue up at the vegetable market at four or five o'clock. This experience was very touching to Zhuo Lin in the 70s.

She has good steaks and lamb chops in her space, but it's hard for her to take them out!

Bai Yi obviously forgot about this: "Well, why don't we go eat roast duck? Or copper hot pot?"

Zhuo Lin shook her head, "Go home and see if there is anything in the refrigerator,"

She remembered that a lot of meat seemed to be thrown in, but she forgot what kind of meat it was.

Foreigners don't eat offal, so she spent very little money at the beginning, which was equivalent to giving it to her for free. She stored a lot of offal, and put some in the refrigerator every now and then, and put it away after eating. Cooking at home, I can't remember exactly what I put!
"You drove out again?"

"I have a meeting in the capital from Monday to Wednesday. It's okay. We've paid for the advantages we took. You don't have to worry about it."

I drove fast, and arrived home in a short time. When I looked at the dark yard, I knew that no one had come back.

He opened the gate with the key and asked Bai Yi to drive the car in. The gate of their house was just enough for a car to enter, and there was an extra one or two meters of open space for people to walk. There were steps in front of the gate, which were also paved with cement. On the road, it will be slippery in rainy and snowy days, and anti-skid marks are made on it.

It has become a routine operation to drive in and close the door tightly, because this era is relatively chaotic.

The important things of their family are not kept here, mainly because people are not often around, except for these furniture and home appliances which are more valuable, other gold and silver jewelry, passbooks and so on, are all taken away by the elders.

Not one family or two were stolen on this street. If a thief wants to steal from your house, several locks will not work.

"Oh, it's still comfortable to be home!" Lying down on the sofa, just as he was about to grab an apple, Bai Yi slapped him.

"What about the doctor? If you touch this and that hand outside, you dare to put it in your mouth? Wash your hands quickly!"

Zhuo Lin stuck out her tongue: "Forget it, just wash it!"

I use sulfur soap to wash my hands at home, it is very easy to use!

Because there are many people in their bathroom, they specially made squat toilets. There are two doors in total, which can be flushed with water, and a septic tank is built in the back. After a while, they pay for them to be taken away. Sometimes it’s okay to forget, and the surrounding countryside needs fertilizers. , will take the initiative to pick.

The style of the bathroom is similar to that of the public bathroom. When you come out, there are two sinks, mirrors, and steps to walk down. There are two shower places on the left and right sides. It is very private, built of bricks, and pasted with waterproof marble. On the wall, even if men and women come in to take a bath at the same time, they will not interfere with each other.

The washing machine is next to the sink, and it can be used when it is plugged in, so the places where the water passes are all placed here.

The bathroom is a newly built bungalow. On the bungalow, there are solar water heaters jointly built by several scientists in the family. One is installed in each of the two places. Men can use this water for bathing comfortably.

If the women feel cold, next to the bathroom is a large kitchen with a coal stove water storage device. It is also very convenient to have hot water supply as long as cooking, so all the water is connected.

The water in the septic tank of the bathroom is only used to flush the toilet and go alone.

The sewage from the kitchen, pool in the yard, rain, bathing, and laundry is directly discharged into the sewer connected outside.

At the beginning, to install this house, the eldest brother and the second brother also had Bai Yi, but they did not use their brains less, and even drew a picture on purpose.

This configuration is not outdated even in the 90s, it is very advanced and convenient.

The kitchen is very large, with a total area of ​​[-] square meters. There is a sink, noodles, home appliances and a place where there is soot from the coal stove. There is a wall in the middle, which is equivalent to a dining room, because there are refrigerators, dining tables, and cabinets here. , cupboards, the layout is very warm.

After Zhuo Lin went to the yard to wash her hands, she didn't sit in the living room of the main house anymore, but went directly to the kitchen, rummaged in the refrigerator for a long time, and took out the pork liver, pig large intestine, and pork belly, but because of the frozen Very strong, she simply turned her head and said to Bai Yi.

"Hey, you almost touched my head!"

Unexpectedly, Bai Yi just walked over, opened a row of cabinets nailed to the wall above the refrigerator, and took the dry goods inside.

Hearing Zhuo Lin's words, he dragged her to his chest with a speechless expression, then pressed the top of her head, opened and closed the upper cabinet, opened and closed it again, and asked with insulting eyes: "Can I touch you? Can I?"

Zhuo Lin looked indignant: "Did you do it on purpose?"

Bai Yi is more than a head taller than her. Even though she managed to grow to 1.6 meters, she is still, tsk tsk, not enough to look at in front of a big man who is 1.8 meters three.

"I didn't do it on purpose, I just want to say that I took your height into account when decorating, including the table for cutting vegetables, the chopping board cabinet for rolling noodles, and even the cabinets in our military family courtyard. I'm making it, but the cabinet inlaid on it is taller than you, and I'm afraid of bumping into you, you know?"

Zhuo Lin didn't think he was thoughtful at all, but felt deeply insulted.

"You're discriminating against us girls, aren't you?"

Bai Yi couldn't help laughing: "What do you discriminate against? No one is taller than 1.7 meters?"

Zhuo Lin carefully recalled the sisters, sisters-in-law and elders in the family, it seems... there really is no one over 1.7 meters, and there seems to be no one over 1.6 meters five. She was deeply shocked by this data.

"It's absolutely no good for you guys to get together. Hmph, I don't care. Do whatever you like!"

"Look, it's like this every time. You are already tall, okay? If you think you are short, don't the female compatriots under 1.6 meters cry even more?"

Zhuo Lin ignored him, and went straight back to the living room, grabbed the apples and gnawed them until they were crunchy, and turned on the radio to listen to the broadcast.

As expected of being a soldier, Bai Yi quickly noticed something was wrong in the yard, and even brought the ladder over and climbed up to the courtyard wall to have a look.

Then he walked in frowning: "Is there nothing missing from our house? Why does it feel like this yard has been trampled on? So many footprints?"

When I was fighting the fire that day, I happened to step on the spot where a lot of water accumulated, and the prints of the shoes I stepped on were still muddy and left undone!
When Bai Yi asked, she hurriedly said, "The next door is on fire. Since you went up, didn't you see it?"
