Raising Babies in the 70s

    Qin Rou came out of the kindergarten and went to inquire about the People's Broadcasting Station nearby. She asked a few passersby and found the address of Lucheng People's Broadcasting Station by bicycle.

    This radio station was recently split up and newly built, so it is about to recruit announcers, two announcers at a time.

    Qin Rou went to sign up.

      Well, it's very easy.

    Qin Rou also considered working in the kindergarten, but she was too tired after the day, and she wanted to manage the vegetable garden at home.

    The first year I moved in, I had to tidy up the house and yard.

    Qin Rou rode a bicycle and went to a nearby village to go to the villagers to ask for a few kilograms of fresh white radish in private. She also asked for some rotten fruit, which was just a cent It's not a matter of speculation, and generally no one cares.

    She rode her bike back, put down the radishes first, and started to transplant a few seedlings in the yard.

    The reason why Qin Rou went to the villagers to buy radishes was to learn more about the situation here. Of course, because of the local accent and language, they could understand her, but she might not understand. Her words can only be barely communicated.

    Thanks to her being a kindergarten teacher, she still has a lot of language talent, as well as a talent for blind gestures, chatting with the aunt in the village.

    The aunt heard that she was a new member of the military, just got married, and was very kind, and gave her a yellow lantern pepper and a few small Gongsun orange seedlings, saying that it seemed to wish her an early birth Takako is still something, and said that it is very beautiful to grow, but Qin Rou didn't understand the specifics.

    Chili, it seems to mean more children and more happiness.

    Qin Rou scratched her head, but she had never seen yellow peppers before, so she probably wasn't very spicy. The redder the peppers, the hotter they looked.

    Although she has never seen this pepper, the aunt pointed to the Gongsun orange planted in front of her door that she seemed to have seen before, like a green kumquat. It looks very beautiful, and it is said that it can repel insects and put it in dishes...

    It sounds amazing anyway.

    Qin Rou had only seen this fruit when she was drinking fruit tea before. She also found that this fruit was like a green fruit when eating grilled saury. When eating grilled fish, cut the fruit Halfway through, squeezing the juices onto the grilled fish is delicious, a perfect match!

    She was a little suspicious that this little fruit was a little lime.

    Anyway, no matter what it is, plant it first, all kinds! Plant a little, and it will look good if you don't eat it as a potted fruit.

    What's more, it can repel insects, and the sweet and sour fruits are refreshing and appetizing.

    "I have an idea."

    Qin Rou was designing the small yard in front of the house how to plan and design it. This yard is neither small nor big, and there are overgrown weeds, so you really need to plan and plan carefully.

    It is a rectangular yard. It is about seven meters in length from the door of the house to the entrance of the courtyard, and about 11 or 2 meters in the horizontal direction. Qin Rou intends to divide the yard into two parts. To the gate of the yard, paved with a stone road about 1.23 meters to the outside of the yard.

    The left side of their yard is mainly used to raise chickens and grow vegetables, and the outermost layer is used as a chicken coop. There is a long small fence, where the chickens are kept in enclosure, and next to the chicken coop is a vegetable field. Qin Rou did not plan to build a large vegetable field at first, but planned a small vegetable field three meters wide and five meters long, about fifteen or six square meters.

    Two or three meters into the vegetable field, it will be close to the house, so Qin Rou plans to plant yellow lantern peppers and green kumquats on the outside of the vegetable field. The green kumquat has a sweet and sour smell. It can also deodorize insects.

    The yard on the left is planned like this for the time being. The yard on the right, Qin Rou, does not plan to grow vegetables. The vegetable field faces the past field. Qin Rou plans to sow grass seeds. After all, there are cubs at home. , get them a small lawn of 15 square meters, they can play in the lawn if they have nothing to do, and plant some potted flowers and plants around them, build a flower stand or pergola, and put reclining chairs and tables at the bottom. The saltwater fish lay and watched the cubs play on the lawn.

    The imagination in my mind is beautiful, but the reality... is still at the first step.

    All you have is a deserted and abandoned yard.

    Qin Rou: “…”

    Let's play the spirit of Yugong moving mountains!

    Qin Rou decided to take it slow, first of all, to improve the soil and compost for the vegetable field, and collect more rotten fruits, plant ash, coconut bran, chicken manure, etc.

    "Big project, don't worry."

    "Doing it yourself is the joy of making something out of nothing!"

    Qin Rou relieved herself, everything took her time. After she planted the pepper seedlings and two green kumquat seedlings, she also planted a green kumquat in the large wooden trough and raised it on the second floor on the terrace.

    After finishing this, Qin Rou went to clean up the white radishes she bought. She washed all the white radishes first, cut them into long strips, and spread them in the yard for drying. Pickled radish.

    The aunt in the village told her that black fish was delicious, and they wanted to eat it at the festival banquet in the village. Qin Rou remembered the name and planned to ask later.

    At noon, Qin Rou was alone at home. She found two octopus in the freezer, thawed them, and fried octopus with coconut oil. eat.

    She didn't have any onions either, she added **** and garlic to the octopus that had been marinated for a while, and she fry it directly in the pan.

    "It's a pain without a range hood."

    Qin Rou covered her mouth and nose with a towel, thinking that steaming and boiling are the healthiest.

    Put the fried octopus on a plate, Qin Rou washed the small green kumquats sent by a few aunts, cut it open, and poured the juice on the fried octopus.

    After pouring it on, it smells sour and fishy and burnt.

      On the fish, it is really sweet and sour!

    Delicious!

    With this sour taste, even the fried fish doesn't feel so hot.

    The desire to plant oranges is a little stronger!

    It's delicious, but it's still quite irritating after eating.

    Let Lu Yan try it next time.

    Qin Rou put the remaining six or seven small green kumquats in the freezer to freeze, kept three or four for herself, made a cup of green tea, and threw the cut small green kumquats in , and added some sugar.

    In the afternoon, Qin Rou sat in front of the house to enjoy the shade. She held an enamel jar in it, which was filled with green kumquat fruit tea. It was as if she had returned to the commercial plaza, but the enamel jar containing the fruit tea reminded her immediately where she was.

    The big red flowers on the surface of the enamel jar are festive and gorgeous.

    Qin Rou yawned and the sea breeze was blowing slowly. She thought that everything was ready, so she needed a reclining chair, and now the sun was shining, she should go to the beach to sleep.

    It's really strange, I came to the seaside, and I have no interest in seeing the sea for the time being.

    "Are you a new family member?"

    "I saw you in the morning when I dropped the baby off!"

    "What are you drinking?"

    Qin Rou looked out of the yard and saw that she was a young military sister-in-law, looking in her twenties, wearing a blue cloth, with a mushroom head, her stature was short, look Looks kinda cute.

    Qin Rou invited her in, poured her a cup of fruit tea, and the two of them went to the terrace on the second floor to enjoy the cool air.

    The two chatted for a while.

    This little sister-in-law's surname is Li, her voice does not match her appearance at all, her voice is rough, and she speaks like a lump of scum.

    "You came from Bencheng before, so let's be close!"

    Since she came to Qiongzhou Island, Li Qinghua felt that they were quite close.

    "I didn't want to go back when I came here, it's too far." Li Qinghua waved her hand, she took a sip of the fruit tea, and found that the tea was sweet and delicious.

    She is most afraid that the strange new family members will give her strange things to drink. Last time, she accidentally drank coffee, but she did not vomit to death.

    The tea of ​​this new family member is sweet and sour, and it is very delicious!

    She is beautiful and the tea is delicious. Li Qinghua has a good impression on her.

    Li Qinghua and her man Liu Kai have been married since childhood. They were married when they were fourteen or fifteen years old. The man was ten years older than her, and the house was not consummated. The man was always outside As a soldier, she was left alone to fight with her mother-in-law in the village.

    She gave birth to a boy to Liu Kai at the age of twenty, and Li Qinghua followed the man to the island with the army.

    After coming here, Comrade Qinghua felt that it was a paradise.

    Oh my god, anyway, she is so far away, she won't go back if she is beaten to death!

    She is a very motivated man, can endure hardships, and is the political commissar of Zhangcheng North Corps. A good daughter-in-law, but she can't do it.

    Li Qinghua is not educated and can't find a suitable job, but men's wages are okay, and many family members are not looking for jobs, this is nothing.

    Learning? Learn shit.

    Li Qinghua didn't want to learn from Huang Xinying, and she couldn't learn it either. After a fight with a man, she simply did nothing, and people became more and more lazy.

    Since she became lazy, Li Qinghua discovered that this is really the life of a fairy!

    Anyway, there is a kindergarten and a cafeteria here. I do nothing every day, and the day goes by like this.

    If you can be lazy, you can be lazy, how wonderful, this kind of life can be lived for a day.

    Huang Xinying is a famous wife in the family's courtyard, and she Li Qinghua is a famous lazy daughter-in-law in the family's courtyard. Family yard jokes.

    As long as she has no face and no skin, Comrade Li Qinghua feels quite happy.

    It is very difficult for her husband who often sighs.

    Recently, her husband broke up with her, and she committed a crime. She saw that she was about to divorce.

    Divorce can leave, but Li Qinghua does not want to leave Qiongzhou Island, she loves this island more than men.

    Husband scolded her: "You can't live like that again!"

    Yes, in order to stay on the island, she had to save herself.

    Li Qinghua looked at Qin Rou, this new beautiful family member still lives next door to Huang Xinying, living in this house with "feng shui", you can imagine what her future will be like.

    —She is probably getting divorced soon.

    Li Qinghua followed the political commissar and listened to a few words of the revolution. She felt that she might be able to form a divorce front alliance with the new Comrade Xiao Qin and become a revolutionary comrade-in-arms.

    "Your man can only come back two or three times a week?"

    Li Qinghua blurted out: "That's really good..."

      .

    Qin Rou: “…”

    You're wrong? !

    Li Qinghua seemed to realize that she had said something wrong, she covered her mouth, and then thought that she had formed an alliance with Comrade Xiao Qin in front of her, and there were many things to hide from her Yes.

    "Xiao Qin, my man is thinking about another woman, what else can I hope for in this day."

    "I'll tell you this, don't tell anyone else."

    Li Qinghua felt that her man was jealous of other people's daughters-in-law, and liked Zhang Tuan's wife Huang Xinying next door to Xiao Qin.

    Qin Rou: “…”

    This is a big deal.

    She has only been here for a few days when she heard such a melon.

    "Okay, okay." But Qin Rou doesn't want to eat such melons at all. She has just arrived and doesn't understand the situation.

    Qin Rou is also reluctant to ask more about other people's family affairs.

    Li Qinghua didn't say who her man really liked, she just decided that his heart was not with her.

    Comrade Qinghua also knew that she had to make progress slowly and slowly get along with Xiao Qin, her alliance. She hoped that Xiao Qin would fall in love with Qiongzhou Island as she did, and would stay here to work after the divorce.

    "This fruit tea is delicious!"

    “Next time you come to my house, I…”

    Li Qinghua found that she really had nothing to entertain.

    "I'll treat you to the thorn fruit."

    "I'll treat you to eat now! I'll take it home!"

    Speaking, Li Qinghua ran away.

    After a while, she ran back with a "big guy", Qin Rou found that the thorn fruit in her mouth was actually a jackfruit? !

    Li Qinghua is very lazy, she hardly takes care of her yard and does not grow anything else, except for a jackfruit tree in the yard, which has been left in her yard, but this jackfruit tree It's very strange, and it doesn't seem to have to be dealt with. Li Qinghua looks at it when he thinks of it, waters it, it also grows very well, and it will bear fruit, which is very big.

    Li Qinghua told Qin Judao in a serious manner: "Little Qin, you just came here, you don't know, the trees here all have their own ideas, and its fruit ripens when it wants to. No one can guess when it will become familiar."

    "I will pick one when it is ripe."

    "It's also the leaves, in autumn and winter the leaves won't turn yellow, and they won't fall leaves, it may have to wait until March of the second year, ha, it suddenly remembers, eh? I seem to forget the leaves Now, I have to shake, I'm falling!"
