They also came to ask about the situation.

Zhang Guichang is so old, and he has never been to the city. With such a large family, only Zhang Gen has been there, but that was all a few years ago.

When Zhang Gui learned that his second sister-in-law had gone to the city, he felt itchy.

It was a bit embarrassing to come here to ask questions by myself, so I told my nephews and nieces, and deliberately aroused their curiosity and asked them to come with me.

Su Hui opened the door for them and invited them in.

Zhang Jinhua and Zhang Fenghua obediently called out: "Second Aunt."

Zhang Gui patted Zhang Jinhua, and Zhang Jinhua said, "Second Aunt, did you go to the city yesterday? How is the city?"

Zhao Xialan chuckled, she must have been like this just now.

Su Hui was a little dumbfounded: "The city is bigger than the town, has more people, and sells more complete items, but it's pretty much the same."

Zhao Xialan: "..." What's the fun in saying that

She pushed Su Hui: "Aren't you plowing the ground? Go do your work, I'll tell them!" She had almost listened to it just now.

Then, the city that had been further processed by her "adding oil and vinegar" appeared, and Su Hui, who came back to drink water and listened to one ear: "..."

Those who know know that you are talking about the city, but those who don't know think it is the capital.

Zhao Xialan told them what they wanted to know, they enjoyed listening to it, and she said it freely. She also told about Su Hui's purchase of a few books when she went there, and secretly sold them so that no one would miss anything.

Su Hui: "..." Admired.

Zhang Gui is not the only one who is curious, many people are curious, Su Hui is really impatient and says again and again, fortunately, Zhao Xialan is here, she is happy to tell everyone about the things in the city, some people don't know, they think they go to It's her in the city.

Regarding Su Hui's going to the city, Zhang Gen thinks it is reasonable. The position of daughter-in-law as a teacher itself takes advantage of locals and sons in the army. It is safer to improve one's academic qualifications, and others are jealous.

Li Manfen snorted coldly, and asked her eldest grandson, Zhang Jinhua. After knowing that she only bought a few books, it was not surprising. I can spend a lot of money to buy others, and I have four children to support. When I get older, the other children will also be of school age, so the tuition fees may be difficult.

As for the other people in the village, it was inevitable that she was spending money, but Su Hui didn't care about their gossip at all.

What do they say about themselves

Before the new year, Su Hui finished all the clothes in a hurry. She made Zhang Baoguo's top and bottom, from the inside to the outside, and the other three children, including herself, only made the inside of the body.

Zhang Weiguo was very envious of his elder brother's new clothes, his elder brother could wear new clothes to show off in front of his friends, but he didn't.

It is not the first time he has heard the reason why his mother's fabric is not enough. Looking at his two younger brothers, he sighed like a little adult: "It's good to be a big brother, and a younger brother can only pick up the old clothes of the big brother to wear. Brother can make new clothes."

Su Hui nodded with a deep sense of reason: "I also think the same way. It's more advantageous to be the big brother, but if you eat more food and grow faster, you can surpass your big brother. You can't wear his clothes, and I'll make you new ones too." clothing."

Zhang Weiguo was pleasantly surprised: "Really?"

Su Hui nodded again: "Of course it's true."

Zhang Weiguo glanced at his brother, and then at himself. In fact, the gap is not that big. He clenched his fists: "Brother, I will definitely surpass you!"

Zhang Baoguo patted his younger brother on the head: "Oh." He won't give you this chance!

Su Wei's sauce is also ready, she specially made it according to her memory.

When she was in the world of cultivation, she had a nanny who had the unique skill of making sauce. It was so delicious that when she went outside to look for resources for cultivation, she bought a lot of it and put it in her storage bag.

She went to observe the recipe before, she didn't know the specifics, but she knew about it, because of the limited materials, Su Wei made two kinds, one was soybean paste, and the other was mushroom meat sauce.

The house can be built, she owes the team leader Zhang Chengye and Sun Qiang a lot of favors, but she has nothing on the surface, so she can only use her own craftsmanship to give something that represents sincerity, in this case , the sauce made by yourself is very suitable.

When the altar was opened, she tasted it, and she was a little dissatisfied. The taste was about three or four points, but for those who have never tasted it, it should be okay

Zhang Baoguo tasted it and said: "It's delicious!!!" Especially the mushroom meat sauce, he can eat three bowls with it!

Seeing him like this, Su Hui became more confident.

It's just that when it was time to give it to someone else, Su Hui realized that she didn't seem to have any tools to hold it.

After Su Hui stayed for two seconds, she got up and went to the town to buy jars.

The materials used in bean paste are cheap, basically soybeans, and shiitake mushroom meat sauce is more expensive, but it is mainly shiitake mushrooms, the meat is just for decoration, and besides shiitake mushrooms, there are also dried bamboo shoots, dried beans and so on.

Zhang Chengye saw the two jars of sauce and accepted them, but when Su Hui left, he stuffed her with a bag of dried sweet potatoes.

Dried sweet potatoes are not as valuable as the meaty mushroom meat sauce, but they come and go, and he understands what Su Hui means, so he accepts it.

After sending it to Zhang Chengye, Su Hui sent two more cans to her parents-in-law. She took the four children with her to avoid people saying that the children are not close to their grandparents. They basically didn't come here to play. up.

When they arrived, it was just right, they had just put away the dishes.

Su Hui took out two jars that they didn't know what they were, opened the lid, and the scent wafted out, the eyes of the children lit up immediately, it smells so good!

Although it was the Chinese New Year, the family also made meat for eating, but it was eaten when the pig was slaughtered, and the rest was only bone soup, and the meat was kept for the Chinese New Year.

"This is the sauce I made on my own. It's okay after a taste. I'll bring some to my parents. I put a lot of salt. It should be good for a while, but not for too long."

Now there is no condition to seal it, so it can only be eaten as soon as possible.

She brought something over, and there was still meat in it, and Zhang Gen's face was softer than before. Li Manfen took it, took a chopstick from it, dipped it, tasted each one, and treated Su Hui differently.

Why didn't I find out that she still has this craft.

"You came just in time. Originally, I wanted to tell you that you all came to have dinner together on New Year's Eve. It's a lively family."

Su Hui didn't expect this, and blinked her eyes: "Okay."

Zhang Gen pulled Zhang Baoguo to talk: "Baoguo, are you still used to it now, come and talk to grandpa if you have anything to say."

"Grandpa, I'm not used to anything." Thinking of the food at home, he felt a little hungry again.

The food is really much better than before, and he has gained weight.

Zhang Gen looked over one by one.

The second son became a soldier and added glory to his Zhang family. He is also worthy of praise in terms of spreading branches and leaves. He gave birth to four boys in total.

Well, I moved out with my second daughter-in-law, and I look fine, and my face is a little more rosy.

He was a little emotional.

When the youngest son gets married, it's almost time for him to be separated.

The children grow up one by one, leave home one by one, and spread out.

Zhang Baoguo and the others liked Grandpa more among the adults, but because he always liked to keep a straight face and was not too close, the other friends often played, but now their minds were not on playing, and they went back after not staying for long.

After returning home, Su Hui used the last two jars to fill a jar full of bean paste and mushroom meat sauce, then sealed it tightly with newspaper, and then picked a few kilograms of small green vegetables in the mustard space and put them in the basket .

This makes it look more presentable.

The blue bricks used to build the house, as well as the furniture, were all helped by Sun Qiang. Without him, it is unknown how long it would take for the house to be built.

Moreover, he works in the town, and there are many places where he can be counted on to help in the future.

Su Hui took Zhang Baoguo with him, and he also recognized the door.

He was working at the police station, Su Hui didn't give him a chance to refuse, left his things and left.

Then, the Spring Festival came.

The Spring Festival of 1970.
