After Li Laifu finished speaking, Li Daniu fell into silence. It took him a long time to say, "My half-hearted captain will not get involved, let my brother worry about it!"
The members of the brigade made trouble again, and Li Laifu hurriedly left Daniel's house.
Li Daniu really went to see his eldest brother Li Dali that day. After a few days of recovery, Li Dali was able to walk without a cane, and was able to undertake some trivial housework at home.
He Songbai did the work he was going to do, humming a little song and doing it slowly, and he was able to clean it up very carefully.
After he chopped wood, he helped Zhao Zhiqing mill rice flour.
Zhao Lanxiang wanted to make rice noodles to eat in the evening, but He Songbai was very busy and tired. She would rather grind slowly by herself than wake him up to work. Seeing this, Li Dali asked his mother-in-law to rest, and he pushed the grinding wheel and reel away.
He Songye sat aside with a small bench and wiped the sweat from her forehead with her sleeve. She smiled and watched her husband mill rice noodles.
The pure white liquid sticky rice milk seeped down little by little, with a fresh fragrance of rice milk.
Zhao Lanxiang said gratefully, "Thank you, Captain."
Li Dali said jokingly: "No need to thank you, the best food I've ever eaten in my life is the one I ate during the six months of recuperation. I would like to thank you!"
Zhao Lanxiang made rice noodles with freshly ground rice milk. She planned to make a special product of a certain place, which was once included in the intangible cultural heritage of the famous noodles - old friend noodles.
She cut the pork liver, pork sausage, and pork into thin slices. She cut the freshly picked spring bamboo shoots into evenly thin strips, pickled them into sour bamboo shoots, and scooped out a tablespoon of pickled tempeh in summer and added The green bean sprouts soaked and sprouted, together with shredded ginger, minced garlic and minced chili, stir-fry until fragrant.
The pork bones are boiled for three hours. The soup base is seasoned with more than ten kinds of spices. Scoop a spoonful of the strong and delicious flavor, add the stir-fried ingredients, and the rolling soup is sour and spicy, which is refreshing.
In winter, eat it to dispel the wind and dispel cold, warm the heart and warm the lungs. The old friend fans pay attention to a sour and spicy, exciting and refreshing.
Sanya held a large pot of powder and sniffed hard: "It smells so spicy, my saliva is flowing out!"
She loves spicy food, but it was the first time she had eaten such a combination of sour, spicy and salty food. She inhaled a mouthful of hot and fresh soup. The layered soup grabbed her sense of taste. The first sour taste made her tongue salivate involuntarily, and the second spicy taste stimulated her taste buds slightly, making her eat and eat, she couldn't help but stop to wipe the sweat.
The salty taste accompanied by the fragrant and tender taste of the thin slices of pork is intoxicating. The highly layered soup noodles make people more and more fascinated by eating them.
Sister He just sucked the rice noodles and ate it. After she finished the last mouthful of soup, she ate everything in the bowl and burped with satisfaction.
She gestured happily, "Bamboo shoots, delicious. Sour and crispy, appetizing."
Li Dali ate slightly spicy food for the first time after his recovery, and his head was sweating slightly.
He heard his mother-in-law say appetizing, and stared down involuntarily.
Sister He blushed and turned her eyes away, shy by the man's hot gaze.
He Songbai ate very gently. When others ate it all, he was still picking up tender bean sprouts and sour bamboo shoots to eat. When everyone else was done eating, he finally put down his chopsticks, revealing his white teeth.
"After eating, write the test paper."
He quickly packed the dishes, washed them, and sneaked into the subject's house.
The spring day has become extremely warm and extremely hot, the cold night has become cool and humid, and the woman's house has a very faint scent of gardenias.
He flipped through the subject's textbooks on his own, picked out mathematics and physics, sat upright and meticulously learned.
Zhao Lanxiang asked him for the pig farm’s account book, and He Songbai threw a small book for her.
Zhao Lanxiang checked it carefully, "You... why don't you have any money again."
He Songbai was extremely ashamed, and he couldn't help coughing in a guilty conscience.
"Expansion of pig farms is a must. Now that the policy and environment have finally become looser, we take the opportunity to make a lot of money. Who knows what the wind direction will be in the future."
"This is... the money I have left." He scratched his head, took out a wad of crumpled bills from his pocket, and handed it to the subject.
The dilapidated banknotes carried his faint body temperature, Zhao Lanxiang counted the number and locked it in the suitcase.
"I'll save it for you, I'm afraid you'll be so daring that you'll put all your capital into it in the future."
"I don't want your money."
He Songbai pressed the corner of his raised lips, "Silly lady, it doesn't matter if you want."
I was saving it for you. He was embarrassed to say these words, but he thought about it silently in his heart, and then he turned the book with enthusiasm and enthusiasm.
After He Songbai went to the city to do business, he was afraid that he would raise pigs to death, so he and Li Zhong worked together for a long time to get him back with a few books on raising pigs and learn the technique by himself. Grandma is getting old, and he doesn't want to bother her old man if she has any problems. So he came to the target's place to read the pig raising book after dinner, and flipped through the basics by the way.
Zhao Lanxiang didn't know which of He Songbai's tendons had opened up. He really studied the textbook seriously, and then wrote down the notes.
She looked up in satisfaction, and the next second the smile on her lips stopped for half a minute.
"… "
"After reading this, remember to write this. If you are not good at math, you may not even be able to read the book on raising pigs."
Zhao Lanxiang pushed the test paper in her hand.
…
In the silent night, the only brighter lamp in the room was placed by the table, and the flickering light illuminated the man's straight back like a lush cypress tree.
He wrote the last one, and tiptoely packed the books on the desk.
The subject was already soundly asleep on the bed, her white face revealed a sense of tranquility, and her cheeks were slightly adorned with a healthy pale pink. She thought it was too hot, so she kicked Bo Bo aside. He Songbai turned to pick up the quilt and covered her.
Unexpectedly, the moment he leaned over, the small book in his pocket slipped to the ground, waking the sleeping woman.
Zhao Lanxiang stretched and said vaguely, "Have you not slept yet?"
He Songbai's Adam's apple rolled, and his voice was hoarse and low, "I won't sleep, I'll kill pigs later."
"Go to sleep."
He covered the subject's eyes with his hands, picked up the small book and hurriedly left the room.
After a while, Zhao Lanxiang's consciousness returned, and she jumped out of bed wearing shoes and could only see his back into the night through the screen window.
The night is cold as water.
She stared at the little bright spot until it faded away.
Zhao Lanxiang suddenly heard something, she frowned and walked to the eldest sister's house with her clothes on.
Inside came the voices of two men arguing fiercely.
She recognized one of them, and Li Laifu said impatiently, "I don't know what you are insisting on."
"Now the atmosphere of the entire brigade is getting worse and worse. If you don't work, you will have no food. These stupid people just want to sit back and enjoy the success."
"The very nature of this system is wrong, and it is now revealing a contradiction!"
"Forget it, I didn't mention anything I told you today."
Li Dali was silent for a long time, and he said, "Your thoughts are very dangerous."
"I don't know what you've been through these days. It made you look like you are now. It's easy to be provoked by others, and you can't settle down and do it."
"Fuck you!" Li Laifu couldn't help cursing.
"You've been lying in bed for more than half a year without farming, and you don't know anything. Do you know how poor we are now?"
"So poor that even the two thatched huts where the educated youth lived, had no money to build. Year after year, most of the villagers could not have enough to eat or wear clothes. Don't these people work hard and earn their lives? "
"The five strong laborers of your family have worked hard from the beginning of the year to the end of the year. After more than ten years of foreign debt and famine, it is impossible to replace it. When you are sick for more than ten years, your blood and sweat are all in vain. Why do you feel like this?"
"Like you, like me, working hard all year round to eat sweet potato buds and rice, won't you be tired?"
Li Dali seemed to be a little tired. He sighed and comforted: "Sit down and talk."
Li Laifu snorted and said, "You're a dead brain. A few years ago, I asked you to learn techniques with me and throw seedlings, but you don't do it."
"When I have a good harvest here, you will be greedy, and you will only be brought to your own brigade in the second year. With such a slow temper, everyone else is full, and you are still fighting the autumn wind."
Li Dali has done even speculative work now, and he has also touched the door to the new world several times. He thought about it and quickly accepted Li Laifu's "leaning to the left" thought.
"It's not impossible if you want to do it. But I think you have to..."
The voices in the house suddenly muted, becoming almost inaudible. Outside the house, I accidentally overheard Zhao Lanxiang in the corner of the wall, and the shock in her chest was astonished. The heat wave slapped her heart in waves, and the momentary excitement seemed to be thrown into the sky.
After hearing this conversation, Zhao Lanxiang woke up to a big event in her mind.
How fortunate she is to stand here to witness the reform and transformation of history. Her heart was surging uncontrollably, and her brain started to warm, and even her eyes felt astringent and hot.
She pressed her thumb hard, clenched her fist and knocked on the door. The knocked door in the middle of the night frightened the two big men in the house who were planning "bad things".
Zhao Lanxiang said, "Captain, I'm Zhao Lanxiang, can I come in?"
After a while, the old wooden door creaked open. Li Laifu stared vigilantly at this late-night uninvited guest with a stinky face.
Zhao Lanxiang smiled and said warmly, "Don't be afraid."
"I'm here to support you."
Li Laifu was in the midst of discussing, when he was suddenly interrupted, and his whole body seemed to be withered.
Li Dali, who was not good at smiling, let out a smile, and he muttered: "Zhao Zhiqing, what's the matter so late?"
Zhao Lanxiang said bluntly, "I just heard your conversation."
However, she paused and continued: "But I promise that nothing I heard tonight will leak out."
Li Laifu glared at her fiercely, and exhaled from his nose, "I don't dare to forgive you."
As soon as he finished speaking, he was punched by Li Dali. Li Dali said, "Zhao Zhiqing is kind to our husband and wife. I believe her, and her education level is not lower than yours, and she is also a very thoughtful comrade."
"It's good to have one more person to discuss."
Li Dali said while pondering, the last sentence was so light that it almost drowned in the air, with the tenderness of the late night.
The author has something to say: *
small theater:
Brother-in-law: I said it all, next is my home court
He kicked the pig-killing knife handed by his brother-in-law and picked up the hoe, rake and dustpan.
It's a good time to provoke a hoe to build a new socialist countryside.
Brother Bo casts a hehe smile
By the time you finish planting, Bai's is already one of the top 500 in the world :)
Pingshengjun: "..."
