A Rural Life in the 70s

"Second brother, you also bully me for Xiaoqiu’s hoe!" Chenghe mourned, pretending to be angry, not sitting, sitting next to the big basin, bowing Catch a fish, copy the scissors, and give the fish a slap in the face...

Xiaoqiu is afraid of the look, whispered: "It's so murderous!"

Speaking, she had already raised her hand and squeezed a piece of honey into the mouth of the river.

Chenghe still wants to refute, a snack entrance, sweet moments in the mouth are full of overflowing, he eats snacks, eyebrows fly, screaming: "Good... eat..."

Xiaoqiu smiled and no longer gave him a trouble. He handed over the half-month cake to his second brother. Then he moved a square stool and put the bowl on it. He will become a expensive stool sitting next to him. A piece of moon cake is given to him. "You are here to eat something, watching your brothers and sisters wash their fish... I will be obedient, and my sister will cook for you tomorrow, okay?"

Cheng Gui mouth took a bite of peach cake, could not speak, only looked at Xiaoqiu with his eyes open, and forced his head.

Xiaoqiu reached out and touched his head. Then, he began to pickle the fish behind the Chengjiang River. The two brothers cut open the washed fish, apply a layer of salt inside and outside, and then code a layer of fish in the prepared water tank. Spread a layer of salt... So, layer one layer, fill a cylinder, and then seal the tank.

The weather in the autumn is getting colder and the air is dry. It is a good time to make pickled foods. It is not easy to spoil and mold, and the taste of pickled products is better.

The fish is sealed in a tank, pickled for a week, then taken out in a cool, ventilated place, dried until the fish is hard, but still maintains toughness, the salted fish is done. The kipper made in this way is not bad, and the fish is chewy, slightly salty and fragrant, steamed or fried, and it is very appetizing.

There are three brothers, talking and laughing, working fast and not boring. After Cheng Gui ate two snacks, he couldn’t hold it anymore and fell asleep on the square stool. Xiaoqiu took him into the house and placed it on his bed.

Looking up at the horseshoe clock, it was almost eleven o'clock at 10:30, and I didn't know how to do it for three hours. It's no wonder that I just heard the belly of the third brother Chenghe sang the empty city!

When the half-size son is a long body, the metabolism is strong. At ten o'clock, the dinner and the few snacks are consumed early.

The fish outside is basically packed up, leaving a little bit, and a few brothers will be ready to clean up. Xiaoqiu went to the stove shed to add water to the fire, and took half a pot of noodles, and hit more than a dozen poached eggs in another breath. Wait for the water to roll, the white noodles and the round poached eggs are all good.

Pick a large bowl of noodles, put two poached eggs, and dig a spoonful of their own fried meat sauce to make a marinade, and finally add a spoonful of hot soup. The bolognese was simmered by the hot soup, and the rich meaty flavor spread out. Then sprinkle a little bit of parsley, and a bowl of rich and delicious fried noodles was ready.

I haven't waited for Xiaoqiu to go out. Chenghe has already smelled it. I sucked my nose and looked for it. I was pleased to ask: "Xiaoqiu made a delicious meal, so fragrant... Hey, this noodle is really delicious... I said that Xiaoqiu’s meal is the best!”

Saying, take the initiative to pick up the noodles and send them to the two brothers before returning to his own.

The third brother Chenghe looked at the big bang, in fact, it was thick and thin, Xiaoqiu said hello to the three brothers, and got up and went to the grandmother's house - it was all in the middle of the night, and San Wei Hu Weihong did not cry anymore. Anything should be finished. At dinner, I didn't eat well. The uncle and Dabo Niang estimated that they didn't eat much. She deliberately went over and asked to come and eat together to save the next half of the night.

It seems that there is really telepathy. Xiaoqiu has not yet reached the door of her grandmother. Wang Limin and Wang Lijun and Wei Hongmei came out together.

The three people were tired and hungry, and they were born with a night of anger, exhausted, and did not want to say a word. Wang Limin walked in the forefront and looked up and saw his own niece standing in the big moon... He thought that he had to look at his eyes for the first time, and blinked, he was sure, and quickly asked: "Xiaoqiu? Are you here?"

Wei Hongmei also immediately said: "Autumn, so late, have you still slept?"

Looking at the three people's heavy and tired appearance, it is really distressing, and even more disgusted with Wang Lishe.

Xiaoqiu greeted two steps and smiled and took Wei Hongmei's arm. He said: "I and my three brothers picked up the squid. I just finished it. My brothers are thinking about you. If they are too big, let me come over and see... ...Dab and Dabo’s dinner didn’t eat well? I just had some noodles, my brothers are eating, and you come over and have some mats.”

Listening to her saying this, Wang Limin first laughed: "I don't think that I haven't felt hungry yet, Xiaoqiu said, I feel like a fire in my stomach. Big brother is also very polite, come and eat together, save back to regenerate Fire."

Wang Lijun glanced at his wife and smiled and said: "Okay, then I and you, Dabo Niang, also support Xiaoqiu's blessing, and follow it to eat ready-made."

Wei Hongmei took Xiaoqiu's hand and sighed: "Hey, the second child is blessed, we are envious, and my three are bigger than Xiaoqiu, but I haven't eaten a ready-made meal today! ”

Xiaoqiu smiled and said: "Da Bo Niang don't worry, when my brothers come back to the scorpion, you become a grandmother, and naturally there are daughter-in-law who cook for you every day."

Wei Hongmei grinned: "Forget it, I don't dare to count on it. Who knows what kind of temper is going back, don't ask them to wait for us, just ask us not to be angry, and let them live well." With the third... oh!"

When it comes to half, it turns into a sigh.

Wang Lijun and Wang Limin are close brothers. They are more concerned than Wei Hongmei’s nephew. Naturally, they are also uncomfortable. The atmosphere that has just lived is suddenly silent.

Fortunately, they spoke to the door of Xiaoqiu’s house. When they heard the sound, Chenghe first got up and greeted him: "Hey, mother, are you coming back?... ah, that 啥, 爹娘,二叔,小秋I took a big pot of noodles and made pork marinades, which is delicious! You wash your hands, I will go to the bowl!"

Xiaoqiu secretly smiled, who said that the third brother is awkward, and this is a clever thing to observe and observe.

Two days later, the autumn vacation ended, and the commune and the village schools opened.

This time, Cheng Jiang not only carried a bag and dry food, but also brought a simple cover roll. Wang Limin asked Zheng Qiu to arrange a residence in the health center for Cheng Jiang. It was a single bed in Zheng Qiushi’s dormitory, although it was inevitable to start Some of them are much better than Chengjiang’s daily trekking on Wuliuli Road.
