Second Marriage in the 1970s

Zhao Donglin took the posture of eating in the army. After eating breakfast in two bites, he took Yingbao from Jiahui to free her to eat her own breakfast.

Sitting at a table, Zhao Donglin's actions naturally did not escape the eyes of the whole family. Zhang Qiaoer pursed her lips and smiled. Muko's son also knew that he loved his wife.

And Zheng Yuefen, who was sitting across from Jiahui, squinted at her husband Zhao Donghe after seeing the behavior of her elder brother. They are all brothers of the family. Others know that their daughter-in-law is helping to bring the children. The pancakes.

Dong Jiahui picked up her half-warm porridge, took a tortilla, and started her first breakfast in Zhao's family.

The breakfast of Zhao's family is very similar to Dong's. They are rice porridge with less rice and more soup. The difference is that Dong's family often adds sweet potatoes to the porridge, while Zhao's family adds corn to the porridge.

In this era when hybrid rice has not yet been cultivated, mechanized planting has not been popularized, and it is not easy for farmers to plant land. Part of the grain grown in a year of hard work has to be handed over to the state to provide for the livelihood of urban residents.

In this case, every family is barely filling their stomachs. It is unrealistic to drink rice porridge in the open. Zhao’s family is already in good conditions in the village. This porridge is only half soup, and corn kernels are added, which can save fine grains. It can also add satiety.

"Mom, am I going to go to the ground with me today?"

Dong Jiahui never went to the land when she was in Dong’s house, because she was a married girl. In the countryside, the married girl was the water that was poured out, and her food relationship was also transferred to her husband’s house. This is the reason for marrying a husband.

There are few divorces in rural areas. Even if you return to your mother after the divorce, you can’t count as a member of the team.

Because you have to calculate work points and pay according to work, in addition to the distribution of rations, there is also a cash dividend at the end of the year. The total annual income on the team deducts production costs and various retentions, and is based on the total work points and the total number of labors per person. Calculated money.

In theory, if one more person goes to work, one more dividend will be counted. Naturally, others will get less, and it will also be considered as infringing on the interests of other members.

But the situation is different now. She married Zhao Donglin and has been a member of the Zhao family from then on, so she should naturally go to work.

After Dong Jiahui asked this, her wife Zheng Yuefen also looked at her mother-in-law Zhang Qiaoer curiously. She was married to Zhao Donghe three days later and she was curious about what her mother-in-law would do to this new sister-in-law.

Zhang Qiaoer was stunned. She didn’t expect that Dong Jiahui would take the initiative to ask about the work. She thought about it and said, “I don’t need it today. You take Yingbao at home and make lunch. I’ll tell you later. How to cook and how much is enough to eat. As for your work, wait until I ask the captain."

After hearing this, Dong Jiahui nodded and had no opinion on this arrangement. Zheng Yuefen glanced at Dong Jiahui and saw that she was holding a bowl of porridge with her head down, her eyebrows filled with an indescribable charm.

Dong Jiahui’s eyebrows are beautiful. They are beautiful leafy eyebrows that do not need to be modified. The bangs are divided on both sides. In fact, this kind of centered bangs is very picky, but Dong Jiahui looks good after combing. Maybe because her face is small and it is a melon-seeded face. , So you can live with any hairstyle.

The reason why Zhang Qiaoer said that after asking the captain, one is that he really wants to mention it to the captain. The work on the team is assigned to the captain. The other is that Zhang Qiaoer looks like this daughter-in-law doesn’t have much flesh on her body, I’m afraid she can’t do much work. She wanted to talk to the captain and arrange for Jiahui to take care of her.

After breakfast, she was about to go out, so Dong Jiahui was left to clean up the pots and bowls.

Now the village is making preparations for planting winter wheat, plowing the land, fertilizing, and starting to plant wheat when the preparations are all done.

Zhang Qiao'er took the black egg away. Before leaving, Dong Jiahui asked the black egg if he would stay at home, but the black egg ran away without taking care of it.

"Don't mind, the black egg is a child's character. I will talk to him in a couple of days."

When washing the dishes, Zhao Donglin came to the kitchen to tell her this. Dong Jiahui stopped moving and looked back. Seeing his serious look, she felt a little sweet in her heart.

"I know, I didn't take it to heart."

Zhao Donglin heaved a sigh of relief when she saw that her expression did not resemble what she had said reluctantly.

The two looked at each other for a few seconds, and Dong Jiahui took the lead to look away. His eyes were too deep, and she remembered what happened last night when she saw him. She was really embarrassed.

Zhao Donglin coughed, apparently just like Dong Jiahui, stubborn about what happened last night.

"Um... I'm going to the village committee soon, and I'll be back for dinner at noon. If you have anything to do, you can go to the field to find your mother, or you can go to the village committee to find me."

Zhao Donglin's working place is the village committee. As long as the commune does not have a meeting, he will normally work in the village.

Dong Jiahui responded, thinking it was only for a long time. He is still coming back for dinner at noon. What can I do to find him?

"Then I'm leaving, pay attention to you at home."

Dong Jiahui nodded, "I know, don't worry."

Zhao Donglin also felt that he had a lot of words. He turned his head out of the kitchen step by step, patted Yingbao who was eating candy on the walker, and pushed his bicycle out of the yard.

Hearing the sound of the courtyard door, Dong Jiahui looked out through the window, he left, and the shame in her heart was a little less.

After washing the pots and bowls, put the kitchen items roughly, and swept the floor, and then Dong Jiahui went out.

"Enbon, what are you doing? Are you feeding the hens?"

The chickens in the chicken coop were released by Zhang Qiao'er early in the morning. The entire yard was a place for their strolling. For Yingbao, he pulled the tortilla into small pieces and scattered them on the ground. Several hens were on the ground. Pecking in the open space in front of Yingbao.

Dong Jiahui patted Yingbao's clothes. The chest of the clothes was stained with dirt, and it couldn't be patted off with his hands.

She picked Ying Bao from the trolley and brought it back to the house, planning to find a piece of cloth for Ying Bao to make two bibs, so that she would not be afraid of soiling her clothes.

"Yingbao, you sit obediently and I will make you two small bibs, okay?"

Dong Jiahui put Yingbao on the wooden sofa and took a piece of fruit candy to Yingbao, but fearing that Yingbao would accidentally get caught, she deliberately broke the fruit candy into two pieces.

Seeing the delicious fruit candy, Ying Bao stretched out her chubby hand, grabbed one of them and put it in her mouth. The familiar and sweet taste pleased her, she clapped her hands happily, and said something to Dong Jiahui. Little syllables.

Dong Jiahui brought a lot of fabrics. Zhao Donglin pulled a few pieces for her before getting married. The relatives at her natal family also loosened a little bit, as well as leftovers leftover from making clothes for others.

It didn't take much cloth to make a bib for Yingbao, so Dong Jiahui found a few pieces from the pile of scraps and prepared to make two spliced ​​bibs for Yingbao.

Opening the cloth covered on the sewing machine, Dong Jiahui threaded the needle on the needle, and stepped up and down after marking the leftover material. The bib was ready in a few hours.

"Yingbao, try to see if it fits, so the bib looks good, it's all broken flowers, I also embroidered an apple on it."

When Dong Jiahui talked to Yingbao and Black Egg, she never claimed to be a mother or anything else. Not to mention that the child couldn't accept her at once, just said Dong Jiahui herself. She felt a little ashamed of her mother being long and short.

"Yingbao looks beautiful in his bib, and he won't be afraid of getting his clothes dirty."

Ying Bao looked down at the extra gown on his body, obviously very interested in the red apple on his chest.

"Enbon, do you know what this is? This is an apple, a very delicious fruit."

Now it belongs to the era of planned economy, and there is no extensive transportation network. There is not enough fruit supply in the market. Anyway, Dong Jiahui has been here for more than half a year, except for the local jujube, persimmon, peach, and pomegranate, he has only eaten the town. I haven’t eaten the oranges, bananas and apples I bought.

A kid as young as Yingbao may have never seen an Apple in his life.

The first one was fitted, and Dong Jiahui turned around and made the other two, one with a waistcoat and one with sleeves, just to use up all the leftovers.

After finishing the bib, Dong Jiahui cleaned up the closet. Yesterday, she was in a hurry and didn't have time to organize a lot of things.

When he took out the watch that Zhao Donglin bought for her from the box, Dong Jiahui made a gesture on her wrist. The new-colored strap and the exquisite and compact dial looked exquisite and unique on the wrist.

"It's a pity, I don't need to wear this when working at home every day."

Wearing a watch for washing and cooking? Wearing a watch for working in the field? No one ruined the watch.

This watch was given to her in private by Zhao Donglin at the time. Dong Jiahui told Chen Guixiang about it after the Zhao family left that day, and Chen Guixiang kept praising Zhao Donglin for his actions.

"I've never seen a young man with such a bright and open business. He really bought it for you. You see, he puts the watch into the gift. If it is added to their Zhao family, how beautiful is it?"

There is also Zhao Donglin’s bicycle. He bought it after he returned to his hometown. It has only been ridden for two months. It is no different from a new one. If he is a face-saving person, it is not an exaggeration to say that it is a gift, but people just don’t use this false name. It shows how down-to-earth he is.

Thinking of these, as well as Zhao Donglin's various performances in the past two days, Dong Jiahui's understanding of him is refreshed little by little. It is not getting worse, but getting better.

After ten o'clock, Dong Jiahui began to prepare lunch, and Zhang Qiaoer told her roughly what to do before going down to the ground.

Steamed sweet potatoes with rice, corn tortillas, there were a lot of vegetables left in the wine house yesterday, and asked her to pick a few meat dishes that were hot, and then choose two vegetables from the vegetable field and fry them.

Dong Jiahui doesn't like to eat leftovers. Modern people pay attention to a healthy diet. The leftovers contain excessive amounts of nitrite, which can cause cancer after eating them, and the leftovers don't taste too right. There is definitely no freshly cooked taste.

But this is the 1970s, and it’s very shameful to waste food. Dong Jiahui heated a few meat dishes according to her mother-in-law’s instructions, cut the leeks from the ground and put a basket of greens, cleaned them up, and fried them separately. She prepared this meal. Just eat these two.

As soon as Dong Jiahui's meal was prepared, the Zhao family came out of the ground. At a glance, Zhao Meixiang could see that the bib worn by Yingbao was newly made by his sister-in-law.
