Seventy Couple’s Daily Routine

Chapter 19: didn't recognize

Just after five o'clock, Lin Wei steamed the rice.

Because it was brown rice, it would be a little dry to eat, so Lin Wei washed two sweet potatoes and cut them in, so that the meal would have a little sweetness.

The sweet potato on Yazhou Island is the sweet potato. Of course, it is called Tiao in Lin Wei's hometown, but sweet potato and Tiao are the same thing, but the varieties are different.

Lin Wei's hometown mostly grows white stalks, but also red stalks, but not many. Whether it is red stalks or white stalks, one of them is the size of an adult's palm, and the whole thing is round. The red glutinous rice is slightly softer and sweeter.

The sweet potatoes on Yazhou Island are more slender, with red skin and yellow flesh, but after roasting, the flesh inside will be yellow and red, and it is softer and sweeter than red rice.

Therefore, relatively speaking, Lin Wei prefers to eat sweet potatoes from Yazhou Island, so she will cut two and put them in when cooking for the past two days.

After steaming the rice, Lin Wei fished out the oysters from the basin, then found an old toothbrush brought from home to brush the oyster shells, and then used a spoon to pry the oyster shells open for cleaning.

After washing, and seeing that the time was almost up, Lin Wei found a plate and put the oysters on a plate for later use.

It has only been three days since she was on the island, and Lin Wei has already mastered the three axes of cooking seafood, steaming garlic sauce, the former is a must, and the latter two can be chosen.

Anyway, the meat of seafood is fresh and tender, and the fishy smell is not too heavy. No matter if you buy sea fish, oysters, lobster or crab, it is right to use these three axes.

The above is what the elder sister of the seafood supply station told Lin Wei.

What Lin Wei made today was oysters with minced garlic. Because her two children can't eat spicy food very much, she didn't buy chili peppers, she just fry chopped minced garlic in oil to get the fragrance, put it on the oysters, and then steam it in a pot.

While the oysters were still unripe, Lin Wei quickly mixed the remaining seaweed, then patted a plate of cucumbers and fried a plate of green vegetables, all together.

Lin Wei had just finished her work when she heard a voice calling out for her father, and Zong Shao went into the kitchen and asked if she could help.

Lin Wei was not polite to him either. She pointed to the rice retort on the coal stove and said, "There is steamed oysters in it, you can take it out."

After listening to Zong Shao, he said, "I said why I came in and smelled so good. It turned out to be steamed oysters."

A smile appeared on Lin Wei's face, but she didn't dare to boast, and said, "Maybe it just smells the fragrance. The first time I made it, the taste may not be like it."

"It must be delicious." Zong Shao said confidently, and brought the oysters to the dining table outside.

The smell of garlic in the kitchen is very strong, and you can't smell it much when you go out, but the brothers have been thinking about the oysters that Lin Wei bought for almost a day. When they saw Dad coming out, they came to the table and took a deep breath: "It smells good!"

Lin Wei patted the cucumber with one hand and came out with the mixed seaweed with the other. She saw two greedy bugs lying on the table beside the table eager to reach out and reminded: "Wash your hands before eating!"

The two brothers don't usually like to be clean, but it's absolutely clear that they wash their hands before meals. Lin Wei just said a word, and the two of them ran to the sink. Take it out.

And seeing Zong Shao who was about to sit down to eat without washing his hands after serving the meal, the brothers came out of the kitchen with the meal without even thinking about it. Lin Wei complained, "Mom! Dad doesn't wash his hands! Dad doesn't talk about hygiene!"

Zong Shao: "…"

Seeing Zong Shao stunned, Lin Wei raised her lips slightly, put the bowl on the dining table and said jokingly, "Wash your hands quickly, you are such a big man, how can you not be as good as two children in terms of hygiene?"

"I just forgot." Zong Shao coughed lightly and walked to the sink to turn on the faucet.

Mingming, who was conscious of being praised, puffed out his chest and saw from a distance that his father hadn't made soap, so he walked over to instruct him, "I still need to make soap, rub my left hand, and then my right hand, and make sure to lather."

After the instruction, he turned back, lowered his voice and said to his mother and brother: "Dad is so stupid, he can't even wash his hands."

Zong Shao: "..." I can hear it!

After washing his hands according to his son's instructions, Zong Shao returned to the dining table and saw that Lin Wei had brought an oyster to each of the two children, so he sat down, picked up chopsticks and waited.

Who would have thought that after Lin Wei had brought oysters to the two children, she had no intention of bringing them to him. Seeing that he didn't move his chopsticks, he asked, "Don't you like tonight's dishes?" Thinking that he couldn't find anything to eat.

Zong Shao: "No." He reached out and took an oyster and put it in front of Lin Wei, then took one for himself.

The oysters are not big, and Zong Shao can swallow them in one mouthful, but he doesn't swallow them directly, and chews them in his mouth. With his actions, the fragrance of minced garlic and the freshness of oysters also reached a perfect fusion, so delicious that people can't wait to swallow their tongues.

Compared with Zong Shao's implicit nod and praise, the two children's love for food is more straightforward. They not only ate the oyster meat and the minced garlic on it, but also licked all the minced garlic under the corners.

Before the oysters on the plate were eaten, he was clearly thinking of tomorrow: "Mom, can we still eat oysters tomorrow?"

"Okay." Lin Wei happily agreed, but she said again, "But there is a lot of seafood on the island, don't you want to try other things first? For example, crabs, lobsters, and all kinds of marine fish?"

As early as the first day of visiting the supply station, Lin Wei was thinking about the above Shanghai products, but she was not willing to buy them at that time.

But after Zong Shao got the seafood ticket, she felt that she could be a little more generous, so she bought shelled oysters today.

If the household registration can be settled tomorrow, Lin Wei thinks they can be more generous, buy all the lobsters and crabs, and eat enough - uh... I guess it is impossible, but it should be no problem to get over the addiction.

Holding the oysters and licking the minced garlic, he paused. Although he wanted to eat lobster, crab and all kinds of sea fish, the oysters were also delicious... What should I do?

Greedy little guy caught in difficult choices.

And although Rarity also likes eating raw oysters, he is more willing to try new seafood, so he has no trouble with his brother at all, and just asks expectantly, "Mom, what are we going to eat tomorrow?"

"Let's go to see it tomorrow, you can choose one seafood by yourself." After Lin Wei finished speaking, she asked Zong Shao what he liked to eat.

"I'll eat it all, you can just buy it when you see it." Zong Shao obviously doesn't have a preference for food.

The two children are not like their father at all in this regard. They are much more enthusiastic about food and talk about it. It's just that he wanted to eat too much, and it was hard to let go, but Rarity quickly made a decision that he wanted to eat fried sixty-six.

"Why do you want to eat sixties?" Lin Wei asked in surprise.

Shicheng doesn't sell sixties, but there are in the supply station, but she has never bought them, so she doesn't know how it tastes.

She originally thought that the two children would choose seafood that they had never tasted but were familiar with, such as lobster and crab, or they would choose oysters and sea fish that they had eaten. They knew they were delicious, but she didn't expect Rarity to want to eat sixties.

But before Rarity could speak, she quickly replied, "I know, I know, the sixties made by Little Stone's mother at noon are very fragrant!"

Rarity opened her mouth and closed it quickly because her words were being robbed, only to affirm after her brother answered, "Yeah!"

Knowing the reason, Lin Wei happily agreed: "Okay, then tentatively set the sixtieth, obviously what do you want to eat?"

The excitement on Mingming's face turned into a tangle: "Mom, can I think about it again?"

Lin Wei said, "You can think slowly, but you have to eat quickly."

Mingming immediately responded, and continued to chew on the oysters he was holding, licking the oyster shells clean as usual, and then he picked up the spoon and started to cook the rice.

After eating, Zong Shao took the initiative to clean up the tableware and chopsticks and took them to the sink for cleaning. The two children went out of the yard after asking Lin Wei's permission to build houses on the beach outside.

Lin Wei was too lazy to move and sat at the dining table looking at the sea not far away.

The sea in the evening was golden, with sparkling waves rippling, causing the ships in the near sea to sway, and the sound of the waves was not obvious. The old shígG Dujia was the sound of seagulls, and it sounded from time to time along with their fast passing figures.

Looking at it, Lin Wei's thoughts gradually became empty. The family area behind her was obviously lively, but she felt that the surroundings were very quiet, which made her feel very relaxed.

So when Zong Shao walked to the middle of the yard after washing the dishes, he saw Lin Wei leaning on the stool, staring into the distance in a daze.

He pulled a stool and sat down beside her and asked, "What are you looking at?"

"what?"

Lin Wei returned to her senses, glanced at him, then turned her head to look forward and said, "Looking at the sea, I suddenly realized that sitting here is also quite good, I don't have to do anything, I don't have to think about anything, it's very comfortable."

Zong Shao snorted and said, "It's very comfortable. Sometimes I also look at the sea and let go of myself."

So the two of them sat in a row and continued to stare at the sea until next door, Zhao Feng came out of the room and saw the two of them wondering, "What are you doing?"

Zong Shao looked sideways and said, "Look at the sea."

Zhao Feng: "...you guys really have a good time."

No wonder they say that Xiaobie wins the newly married, such a boring thing, only a young couple like Zong Shao who have just reunited are interested.

Thinking like this, Zhao Feng went into the house to find Gao Xiulian and asked, "Daughter-in-law, you see that the weather is so good outside, why don't we go out for a walk?"

Gao Xiulian, who was washing the dishes, glanced at Zhao Feng and said, "If you have nothing to do, go and call Xuebing and the others back and ask them to take a bath. They are still hanging around outside, not even thinking about one or two. Heart!"

The worried Zhao Feng said, "...Okay!"

When Zhao Feng went out to look for the child, Lin Wei also called Mingming Ruirui back, cut the mangoes, and put some rambutan and bananas on a plate, which were considered as fruit after dinner.

There was also Xiao Shishi who came back together. He came over from the house after eating, and when Lin Wei said that the brothers were building a house outside, they came over.

But the place they chose today wasn't good enough, the sand wasn't enough or wet enough, the house wasn't built up much, and at most it was surrounded by the courtyard wall.

But the three children feel good about themselves, and when they wash their hands, they are still excited to say how strong the place they cover is, and then agree to continue after eating the fruit.

Lin Wei interrupted when she heard it: "I can't continue after eating. I have to take a bath and sleep. The same goes for you, Xiao Shi, and you should be in a hurry to play with your mother."

The three children were a little disappointed, but Mingming was the happiest and said, "It's okay, I'm covering it very well anyway, and the wind will definitely not blow it down, so I can continue to cover it tomorrow."

Rarity asked, "Mom, can we continue building the house tomorrow?"

"Okay." Lin Wei agreed and greeted again, "Come and eat the fruit." Then he handed Zong Shao a slice of mango.

After Zong Shao took the mango, he didn't eat it immediately. He watched Lin Wei divide the other mangoes and asked, "You don't want to eat it?"

Lin Wei picked up the mango pit in the middle and said, "Eat."

But before she could tear off the peel around the core, the core was snatched from her hand, and then a piece of mango flesh was stuffed. She raised her head and looked at Zong Shao, who had already torn open the skin and ate it.

Zong Shao's food is not considered gentle, but it is not wholesome, and he does not have the habit of pouting. In this respect, he is much better than the men Lin Wei has seen before.

But no matter how good-looking people are, they will be a little embarrassed when they eat mango pits, and Zong Shao is no exception. The mango juice stained around his lips, and his hands were full of mango juice.

Obviously Zong Shao also realized this, he turned around after eating, and even went to the sink to wash his hands after eating, he walked over with his back to Lin Wei.

Realizing this, Lin Wei unconsciously showed a smile on her face.

Zong Shao, who came back after washing his hands, saw that he was a little uncomfortable, and asked with a sullen face, "What are you laughing at?"

"It's nothing, mangoes are delicious." Lin Wei said, bowing her head and taking a mouthful of mango meat.

Zong Shao: "..." She obviously didn't have the mango in her hands before.

But in the end, he didn't say anything, just sat back next to Lin Wei, picked up the rambutan on the plate, peeled the pulp, and sent it to her naturally.

Although Rarity ran to the main house to sleep two nights in a row, Zong Shao didn't give up the idea of ​​letting him be independent.

When Lin Wei went up to the second floor after taking a shower, she heard Zong Shao's low voice coaxing the child to sleep in the second bedroom.

But when she got closer, Lin Wei was embarrassed. She heard Zong Shao reciting: "Turn the handle to the left, pull the trigger back to the end..."

Lin Wei was stunned when she heard a clearly sleepy voice in the room, and asked in consultation, "Dad, can I not listen to this?"

"What do you want to hear?"

Mingming immediately got excited and said, "Then I want to hear the story of the great sage, can you tell it, Dad?"

"Won't."

"Okay," Mingming was a little disappointed, but he didn't give up and continued to ask, "Then the farmer and the snake? The tortoise and the hare racing? And the rabbit waiting for the big tree? These are all what my mother told me, Dad, you will ?"

Zong Shao's answer was still straightforward: "No."

"It doesn't matter, Dad, if you don't know me, I can tell you. Shall we treat the farmer and the snake first? A long, long time ago..."

But the story had just started when Zong Shao interrupted Mingming's voice: "It's time for you to sleep. If you don't want to sleep, I can continue to read to you." Continue reading.

After a while, a weak voice sounded: "Don't recite, don't recite, just go to sleep and go to sleep."

It was obvious that Zong Shao's voice stopped within two minutes of speaking. Lin Wei walked to the door and looked in, and saw that the two children were fast asleep with their eyes closed.

Zong Shao, who was sitting inside, saw Lin Wei, closed the book, got up and walked over. When he reached the door, he turned off the light and said, "Go back, they are all asleep." Then he walked out of the room and closed the door.

Lin Wei didn't turn around immediately, she just stared at the book in his hand and asked in a low voice, "What book did you read to them?"

Zong Shao didn't hide it, picked up the book and showed it to Lin Wei.

Seeing the words "military training" written on the cover, Lin Wei said, "Why do you suddenly read military books to them?"

"Good content."

Of course Lin Wei knew it was a good book, but: "You read this to them now, can they understand?"

Zong Shao didn't change his face: "I don't understand, I just went to bed."

Lin Wei: "..." In fact, this is your purpose, right?

The two entered the room while they were talking, Lin Wei sat directly in front of the dressing table, picked up the vanishing cream on the table, unscrewed the cap and tugged it out a little, put it in her hands and rubbed it on her face.

While applying the vanishing cream, Lin Wei turned her head to look at Zong Shao, who was sitting on the head of the bed and continued to flip through the book, and suddenly asked, "Would you like to organize a bookshelf for you?"

She looked at the luggage Zong Shao took out from the army dormitory. There were not many sets of clothes in it, but there were quite a few books. There was a box full of them, and they were all placed under the closet.

Because Zong Shao put it like this before she moved in, so she didn't help to clean it up after seeing it, and didn't ask until he saw him holding the book.

Zong Shao put down the book and said, "I don't need it for the time being. I'll see if I can get some wood back later, and then make some cabinets and benches."

"Is it hard to get wood?" Lin Wei asked, combing through her hair and braiding it.

Zong Shao said: "I know people from the surrounding brigade, and I will ask them the other day."

Lin Wei snorted, took out two rubber bands from the drawer of the dresser, and tied the tail of the braid.

Zong Shao looked at him and asked, "Didn't you sleep with your hair loose the other day? Why did you braid your hair all of a sudden?"

Lin Wei said as a matter of course: "It's because I slept with my hair loose two days ago, and it was difficult to comb my hair in the morning, so I braided my hair."

Lin Wei is still a bit of a burden. Ever since she gave birth to Mingming Ruirui, she has never gone out with two braids, because she is always suspected of pretending to be tender.

The same is true in front of Zong Shao, even because they are husband and wife, and they are not familiar with each other, she will pay more attention to her image in front of him. So before when he returned to Shicheng, she slept in her hair at night, looking more gentle and mature that way.

But now Lin Wei feels that it is too tiring to be so old. After all, they are no longer together for a few days or ten days, but a year, and if she can survive next summer, this year may become ten years. , even for a lifetime.

Lin Wei thought, let's do it how he feels at ease.

Lin Wei with two braids did look smaller, and her appearance gradually overlapped with Zong Shao's memory.

Although Lin Wei changed her hairstyle very early, Zong Shao also went back during this period, but what he remembered most was the appearance of Lin Wei with two braids.

It's not that she doesn't look good with a single ponytail or hair, but the only one in Zong Shao's hands. In the photo of her alone, she has two braids.

That picture was given to Zong Shao and Lin Wei before their blind date, because he was not very willing to go on a blind date at that time, and he was only in his early twenties.

Not to mention that he was bound by an unheard of baby kiss, which is ridiculous!

But at that time, his mother got into the horns because of some things, and insisted that he agree to meet people. For this reason, he also asked Lin's mother for a photo, hoping that he would "see it".

There was no reason to be surprised, but looking at the photo, he was a little stunned.

He has seen this girl.

It was his first year at the military academy, and because he was far from home and the school was very strict, he did not go home for the entire semester. When he returned home, he saw that the familiar home had changed, and his mother had long since left the capital.

Because his father refused to tell his mother where he went, he finally learned about her from a former colleague of his mother, and then he carried his luggage and went to Shicheng to find the cotton spinning factory where his mother worked.

But after inquiring, he learned that his mother was in the hospital due to illness, so he rushed to the hospital and asked the ward where his mother lived.

At the door of the ward, he saw her for the first time.

She followed her mother to visit his mother.

Hearing the laughter and laughter in the ward, he was timid for the first time and couldn't go in.

Until her mother and his mother were about to talk and put her out of the ward. She saw the old shígG Dujia wandering outside the ward and felt suspicious, caught him and asked him what he was doing, and threatened to call someone if he didn't tell the truth.

He was afraid that she was really annoying, so he said that he came to see his mother, but he was a little afraid to go in when he came to the ward.

After hearing this, she was very puzzled and asked, "That's your real mother, why don't you dare to see her?"

Maybe it was because they were about the same age, his mother seemed to like her very much, or maybe he had been depressed for too long, he didn't hide it, and said directly: "My parents got divorced, and my mother left home, and I didn't know until I came back from school. This matter, I... I don't know if she wants me or not."

Divorce is very rare in this day and age. She should have heard of it for the first time, and her eyes were filled with sympathy immediately.

Maybe it was because she was afraid that her sympathetic eyes would make him more uncomfortable. When their eyes met, she quickly lowered her head and said, "I don't know what your parents are like, but I don't think any mother would be willing to let go. her baby, so...I think you can talk to your mother."

After she left with her mother that day, he walked into the ward and talked with her for a long time.

During the winter vacation that year, he spent it in Shicheng. During this period, he occasionally thought of the girl, wondering if she would follow his mother to play at his house.

When he told her that, he deliberately didn't mention his mother's identity, and she didn't seem to think that they were visiting the same person.

If she saw it, she might be surprised, staring at him with wide eyes.

Or happy for him after learning that he had made it clear with his mother, and said triumphantly, look, listen to me.

But he never saw her again until he left Shicheng and returned to school.

Until my mother handed me that picture.

The photo should have been taken not long after they met, because she in the photo is the same as before, but her lips are pursed reservedly, like a little girl pretending to be an adult.

It's just that she didn't work hard enough, her bright eyes and the corners of her lips turned up involuntarily revealed her mood when taking pictures, and also added a little girl's beauty to her.

Looking at the photo, he finally nodded and promised to meet her.

And when his mother asked him for a photo, instead of choosing an old photo that might evoke her memory, he chose a military uniform photo that was new not long ago and sent it.

Although a few years have passed, his facial features have grown a lot, and the sun is shining on the island, his complexion is a little darker than when he was young, and he looks more mature, but if you look closely, you can still see how he looked when he was young.

So, after the photo was sent, he wondered expectantly, does she remember him? Can you still recognize him?

Oh, she didn't recognize it.

The author says:

The clips will be loaded tomorrow, after seven o'clock in the evening.
