Chapter 188

Zhen Youqin heard his younger brother and brother-in-law talk about how delicious the fish heads cooked by Jia Hao Hao are, and seeing their endless aftertaste, he almost couldn't help but show off these two eyesightless people in front of him. The little bastard was cleaned up.

I have never eaten fish cooked by my wife, so I will take advantage of them first.

This is definitely not possible, so he went to pester his daughter-in-law to make fish heads for him at night.

Jiahao really doesn't like the current kitchen. There is no range hood. After cooking at noon, I always feel that my body is full of oily smoke and fishy smell, so I made up my mind to take a bath at night.

However, she just took a shower when she came back the other day, and if she takes a shower again now, she is worried that everyone will think she is delicate.

The main reason is that it is inconvenient to take a bath now. It is really troublesome to light four charcoal basins and put them into the bathroom, carry two buckets of hot water and one bucket of cold water, and clean the tubs.

Now when he heard that he wanted to eat fish head with chopped peppers, Jia took a good bite and agreed: "Okay, I'll cook tonight."

He also told him about Dr. Huang's desire to rent a house: "Anyway, there are a lot of fish at home, you might as well go to the second uncle's house, and invite the second aunt and the others to come and eat."

In this way, I can ask for a bath. After all, I have cooked two meals?
Zhen Youqin readily agreed, and when he was about to go out to call for someone, he saw the team leader coming to the door with his hands behind his back and a bong.

He was very surprised, the captain is not a person who likes to visit, there is a high probability that something has happened.

He hurriedly welcomed the man into the living room: "Uncle, why are you free today? I'm going to call you. Someone gave me some fish. I'll have a drink with Uncle tonight?"

Anyway, now I absolutely dare not say the word 'buy', I can only say 'gift' or 'exchange'.

In fact, everyone knows well that with the days when they can barely eat and drink enough, no one who is rich can give away several fish.

Captain Zhen couldn't help laughing heartily when he heard his words: "Really? Then we have to have a drink, and I have something nice to tell you."

Zhen Youqin didn't ask what the good thing was, and called his daughter-in-law to make tea first: "Okay, make a cup of tea for uncle, and put more sugar."

Tea and sugar are both good things nowadays, if it wasn't for the guests at home, most people would be reluctant to eat them.

The country people who are more particular will buy one or two or two liang of tea during the Chinese New Year and keep it as a treat for guests.

If you don’t pay attention, it’s good to put some sugar in the bowl, but don’t even think about tea.

"No, no, no," Captain Zhen hurriedly declined: "From Xiaoyou's family, just give me a cup of hot tea."

"Okay uncle," Jia Hao replied with a smile, but the tea and sugar are available at home, so she would not be reluctant, and quickly handed them an enamel jar, and filled them with a plate of melon seeds and peanuts , then smiled and said: "Uncle, I'll go to the kitchen to fix the fish first, you must stay and try my skills later."

She also knows that she is usually not diligent enough, so she should be worthy of the title of lazy woman, but in front of outsiders, she is still willing to put some gold on her face.

He not only poured tea for the captain, but also poured a cup of tea for his man.

Captain Zhen was not afraid of getting hot, so he took a sip of tea after blowing it a few times. The fragrance of tea leaves and the sweet taste of white sugar put him in a good mood, and he smiled and said, "Your Uncle Dawei is about to retire. Discussed with him, we mean we want you to go up."

Now the village cadres are subsidized, and they don't have to work, which is a very coveted job.

But Zhen Youqin has a job now, so he can only decline: "Uncle, thank you for thinking about me, but I have already received a notice to go to work in the transportation team."

"Ah? Go to the transportation team? Really?" Captain Zhen looked at him in shock, and was overjoyed when he saw him nodding: "This is a good thing, this job is really good, you are promising."

Zhen Youqin couldn't tell him the truth, so he put gold on his wife's face and said vaguely: "My wife's brother-in-law helped a lot."

He asked him again: "Why did Uncle Dawei stop working and know how to remember? He is not very old at this age?"

Zhen Huiji is Zhen Weigang's father. When he went to deliver the fruit yesterday, he didn't see anyone. He heard from Weigang that he was not feeling well these days and had already laid down.

Captain Zhen sighed: "Hey, there is something bad growing in the stomach, and the hospital in the town can't see it. It is said that you have to go to a big hospital in the city or the provincial capital to have surgery?"

I have gotten along well with him in the past few years, and I worry about him when I hear about this disease.

"Weigang didn't tell me." Zhen Youqin thought that in the past few years after his grandma passed away, Zhen Weigang's house had some delicious food, and he either dragged himself to his house to eat, or quietly brought out a bowl for himself.

Now hearing that Zhen Huiji has this problem, his heart is also very heavy: "I'll go and see Uncle Dawei later."

Captain Zhen nodded silently, and simply asked him: "Hey, who in the village do you think is suitable for memorizing? Now the town's commune has regulations, saying that village cadres must be knowledgeable, and it is best to be young, so that they can be motivated. , can lead the members to live a good life.”

"It's a pity that there are few educated people in our village, and the educated youth are outsiders. I worry that they may leave."

"Dagang, who is well-educated in the village, works at the post office. Weigang hasn't read much. Besides, you are a top-notch person. In addition, Baoqiang also works in the hospital. There is nothing suitable for anyone else."

"Either those who only know a few words, like Dashuan and others, don't meet the requirements of the commune. There are really few top-notch and capable people in our village. Hey, these are all out of date, you say..."

Listening to his nagging, Zhen Youqin's heart moved. He felt that his daughter-in-law was quite suitable.

Educated, there is no need to worry that she will leave like other educated youths.

The most important thing is that if your daughter-in-law knows how to remember, you don't have to do farm work with your face to the loess and your back to the sky.

Of course, with her ability, she can eat and drink without worrying about working, but that would be too eye-catching.

Otherwise, my daughter-in-law wouldn't work obediently after she went to the countryside, and she didn't do anything special at all.

Of course, he doesn't know yet that Jia's good plan is to get married so that he doesn't have to work in the fields, especially now that he already has a job and can support his family.

"Uncle, do you think it's okay to let Haohao go to be a recorder?" Seeing him frowning, Zhen Youqin tried to persuade him: "Haohao graduated from high school and is educated, and she will not leave our village. Isn't it advocating equality between men and women now? , can women hold up half the sky?"

"Besides, when we went out this time, she also met a professor from the Agricultural College, and asked some questions very seriously. Then Professor Gu felt that the hills on our side are mostly dry and barren, and suggested that we try planting jujube trees. "

"It is said that jujube trees do not have high requirements on the weather and environment. They can be dry and cold, and they are also resistant to heat and humidity. They are not strict on the soil, and they are resistant to drought and barrenness. Grafted seedlings can bloom and bear fruit after two or three years of planting..."

"She especially wanted to do some good things that would benefit her neighbors. Professor Gu also looked at her differently and said that if you want saplings, you can go to him."

"Well, she really wants to develop the countryside so that everyone can earn more and make everyone's life easier."

Zhen Youqin originally wanted to take advantage of the opportunity to do something beneficial to his hometown. If he succeeded, he would also have the right to speak in the village.

But now that he has encountered this good opportunity, he wants to fight for his daughter-in-law.

Therefore, he pushed all the things he found out to Jia Haohao.

Captain Zhen listened to his words and drank his tea silently.

He thought that when he went to a meeting by himself before, he did meet a few lesbians, and he heard from Secretary Lou that there were lesbians who were team leaders in other places.

Jia Haohao, a lesbian, has a flexible mind, and he has not forgotten that Jia Haohao gave himself good advice when he was fighting the fire last year.

What's more, Jia Haohao is kind and generous, which is obvious to all.

She can keep Zhen Youqin's cousins ​​and cousins ​​with good food and drink, and she can also help the married eldest sister, and even bring back her niece, which shows that this person has a good character.

It was him himself, used to being a partner with Zhen Huiji, if he suddenly changed to a girl, he would always feel a little awkward in his heart.

"Your daughter-in-law is very good, but according to the opinions of the commune, this time the accounting is to be carried out fairly and fairly. It is said that the date is set, and the leaders of the commune will watch over and let those who want to win give speeches. , vote to decide."

Captain Zhen looked at him and said, "If your daughter-in-law wants to try it, let her prepare it. I think people will come to the commune in three or four days."

His original plan was to let Zhen Youqin go, and he was going to accompany him to each house. With his reputation, this matter is likely to be inseparable.

But now that the candidate has been replaced by his daughter-in-law, Captain Zhen is not very happy. It depends on Jia's own ability.

"Hey, I remember," Zhen Youqin saw that the tea in his enamel jar was almost drunk, picked up the kettle and refilled it, and said sweetly: "Uncle, thanks to you and old Shu Mingli all these years Help me secretly, and I will invite the old uncle to have a drink with you later."

No one doesn't like to listen to good words, and old uncle Zhen taught his son who was going to be a soldier, as well as Zhen Youqin and Wei Gang's boxing skills.

If Zhen Youqin hadn't been dragged down by his family back then, he would probably be defending his family and the country with his son in Jundui now.

"Hahaha, okay, I'll have a drink with him."

Zhen Youqin also talked about his partner, the eldest son of Captain Zhen: "How is Haifeng doing now? Last year he didn't have a family leave for the Chinese New Year. Can he come back this year?"

Speaking of his son who was a soldier, even Captain Zhen couldn't help but feel honored: "I sent a letter back earlier, saying that it is possible to come back, hey, he is not young at this age, and he doesn't know anything Time to marry a daughter-in-law!"

"Uncle, don't worry, Fengzi is promising, and he will definitely find a partner who will make progress together..."

When Zhen Youqin saw Sanniu come in to get something, he took advantage of the opportunity and asked her to invite Uncle Zhen to come over.

Because he didn't tell Uncle Zhen to come over for dinner, Uncle Zhen thought that Zhen Youqin had something to do, but he came over quickly.

When I came here, I realized that I was letting myself eat fish, so I was not polite, so I drank tea and chatted with Captain Zhen.

When Zhen Dahai came in, he could smell the tempting smell of fish wafting from the kitchen.

When he entered the door again, he saw his eldest son sitting beside the brazier with the captain and old uncle Zhen, warming up the fire, drinking tea, chatting with melon seeds and peanuts, and almost turned his face out of anger.

He thinks that he treats his two sons in the same way, that is, the younger son is young now, so he should take care of him more.

It's a pity that the older the boss, the less sensible he is, insisting on arguing about separating the family, adopting cousins ​​who are not related by blood, and marrying a female educated youth.

It's even worse now, he didn't know when he went out, and he heard it from others when he came back.

This is really not taking yourself seriously.

What's even more hateful is that he brought back a brother-in-law with a questionable composition when he went out. It was rumored that his reputation was not good, and he was worried that it would cause trouble, so he couldn't help but come over.

Zhen Youqin heard heavy footsteps, looked up, and saw his own father appeared with a straight face.

Although he didn't want to see him, but now in front of the old uncle and the team leader, Zhen Youqin would not do anything to prove it, so he squeezed out a smile and got up to say hello: "Father, you are here, hurry up!" Sit down and I'll pour you a cup of tea."

"You still know that I'm your father!" Zhen Dahai got angry at him with a straight face: "You said what you did, you were worried about our family's reputation, didn't you? Pull all the dirty and smelly things into the house, you You're not afraid of being dragged down by these people, are you?"

Zhen Youqin was very glad that his wife was not here at the moment, otherwise she would definitely not be able to help but get angry, and maybe she would drive him out.

Although he was impatient with his father coming to his house to point fingers, but now in front of the old uncle and the others, he was still willing to let them know how helpless he was in the face of his eccentric father.

"Father, what did you say? As a married daughter, I naturally want to see my father-in-law and mother-in-law."

Zhen Youqin acted like I'm putting up with you, and said with a good temper: "Although the father-in-law and mother-in-law are implicated now, they still earn work points by working with their hands, and it's not because they did something bad that they were arrested and sent to jail. "

"Besides, my younger sister who was originally my wife wanted to live with my younger brother, but my brother-in-law has a special job and is often away from home. My sister-in-law has to work day and night in the hospital. I am afraid that I will not have time to take good care of my brother-in-law, so I let my brother-in-law come. Our home."

"It is said that my brother-in-law lives here, but I don't think my brother-in-law is a drag on the monthly living expenses of ten yuan."

Of course, these are just his lies. He is giving money to his brother-in-law, and he is also exalting his daughter-in-law's status.

In this way, even if the brother-in-law goes to school in the future, the villagers will still feel that they have taken advantage of it. After all, the current ten yuan is worth half a month's salary of an ordinary worker.

Zhen Dahai didn't feel good when he heard it, but felt that his eldest son was greedy for money, and said angrily, "You took such a person home just for money, didn't you?"
