Marrying a Cook in the 1960s

Chapter 9

Views:

With so many people watching, Wang Yongshun certainly couldn't do anything, and the accountant hired by Tian Youfu was even more impartial. After calculating everything, both sides were cleared.

Wang Yongshun was so upset, but he couldn't help but have extravagant hopes. Wang Ying got so many things, could she keep them? Once these people left, these things would be his sooner or later. Just talking about the food and bacon in the kitchen, could Wang Ying eat them all by herself

Before Wang Yongshun could react, Wang Ying took out the things...

Wang Yongshun's heart was bleeding, but he still pretended to be magnanimous: "San Ya is right. I have worked hard for everyone today and delayed everyone. It's my duty."

People around have a very good impression of Wang Ying. This girl is really loyal and righteous!

Someone immediately went home to get some potatoes and sweet potatoes to send over. Wang Ying brought out four or five pounds of bacon. This amount was still not enough to entertain the guests, but it was enough for each family to contribute some carrots and potatoes.

Some nosy people even grumbled, thinking that Wang Ying was being silly and generous.

Who would treat people to a meal for no reason? It's not easy for country folk to save up some food.

Just cut a little bit of bacon every day and you can eat it all the way until winter!

And the lard, eat it carefully, it is enough for the whole family to eat for half a year.

Which family doesn't live a frugal life these days

But Wang Ying doesn't think so.

First of all, Wang Ying is very aware of her cooking skills. She can cook anything as long as she enters the kitchen. At most, she can steam eggs and make boiled vegetables. For someone who can't even cook rice in an electric rice cooker, this wood-fired pot is simply killing her.

So she couldn't make the bacon at home at all.

Besides, Wang Ying knew that her uncle's family would not sit idly by and watch her enjoy a good life.

Apart from anything else, there was a cousin lying in the room, and no one knew what she was thinking.

Wang Ying was thinking, with just this piece of meat and a little bit of lard placed here, she could almost imagine the looks and calculations of her aunt and cousin.

Although her problem was solved smoothly this time, there was one bad thing: her family assets were all exposed to the people in the team.

Who can guarantee that there aren't one or two bad-intentioned people among them

Aren't you afraid of thieves stealing? Are you afraid of thieves thinking about it? It's better to be a good person and eat the food cleanly.

Wang Ying, on the other hand, had a righteous look on her face and insisted on expressing her gratitude.

Tian Youfu was helpless. Why did he feel that this girl was a little bit stupid? However, this also reminded him that he would have to ask his wife to come and see more often in the future, lest Wang Yongshun and his family start to deceive her again after they left.

It must be said that there were many people who shared the same idea as Tian Youfu. Only Tian Ershu and Tian Dashu had secretly made up their minds. Tian Ershu thought that he could ask Erzhu to come to Wang Ying more often. Tian Dashu thought that he would not say anything this time, but if it happened again, he would definitely go back and complain to the commune.

The big stove was turned on, the bacon was processed, and because there were so many people, it was sliced into slices. Noodles made of cornmeal and white flour were cut, and lard was added directly when cooking the noodles, so the noodle soup was full of oil.

The children from each family ran back to find a bowl, held the bowl and ate the noodles and drank the soup, with a few slices of bacon on top, which smelled as delicious as during the Chinese New Year.

Wang Ying was eating bacon noodles while thinking about the current situation.

It is true that life is difficult now, but fortunately the place where she lives is still relatively acceptable.

First of all, it is close to the mountains and rivers, unlike the northwest where it is difficult to get water. Also, because it is close to the mountains, in addition to working and farming, the brigade also has its own mountain forest to plant fruit trees, which is also a source of income for the brigade. With these, the life of the production team 7 is actually not bad. It is not easy to have enough food, but it is rare to go hungry.

The mountain behind us is truly a treasure. During the difficult years in the past, people had almost eaten up all the food outside the mountains. But after a few years, things recovered, which shows how good the ecological environment here is.

Wang Ying considered her own abilities. She was good at medicine. Before the end of the world, she was a surgeon. Because her elders were Chinese medicine practitioners, she also learned some Chinese medicine. She knew a little bit about acupuncture, massage, and prescriptions.

Then the end of the world came. First, because of various natural disasters, she forced herself to become a jack of all trades, learning and practicing everything from surgery to obstetrics to pediatrics, as long as it could help. In the process, she accumulated a lot of practical experience.

It is no exaggeration to say that she now has no problem dealing with some common illnesses.

Wang Ying slurped the noodles in the bowl. The aroma of the bacon was not so overbearing. Instead, the lard noodle soup in the bowl was more attractive. However, the bacon had a chewy texture in her mouth and tasted more and more delicious.

The noodles were not made of pure white flour, but mostly corn flour, which had a slightly sweet aroma that made her very satisfied. After taking another sip of the noodle soup, she felt even fuller.

Wang Ying was so happy while eating this meal that her face was filled with smiles, while Wang Yongshun's family was so angry that they were confused.

The woman who cooked and served food ignored Wang Yongshun's family, so Wang Yongshun could only stay in the house. The rag on Li Chunjuan's mouth had not been removed yet, and she was crying and trying to make a scene, but Wang Yongshun beat her so hard that she dared not say a word.

Wang Ying finished her noodles, still thinking about what she could do. She was now eighteen years old and no longer in school. The work points and subsidies given by the brigade would only last until next year, which meant that her only assets were the furniture and house at home, and the few dozen yuan she had just gotten from Li Chunjuan.

This amount of money is enough for her to survive until this year's wheat harvest, when the brigade will distribute grain.

Wang Ying sighed. What should she do? She had finally come to such a place, and she didn't want to go hungry. But she wasn't good at working in the fields.

After all, we still have to go back to our old business.

But before that, Wang Ying looked at her frail body and decided to take care of herself first until she was well. With the original owner's physique, no one would believe her even if she went out and shouted that she could be a doctor.

After seeing everyone off that day, Wang Ying got herself a hot bath. After the bath, she rushed back into the clean bed, feeling extremely satisfied.

Li Chunjuan made the new quilt very thick, and you could tell it was made of high-quality cotton. Wang Ying closed the door and fell asleep contentedly.

She fell asleep, but Li Chunjuan and Wang Yongshun in the next room did not sleep all night.

As soon as the rag was taken off Li Chunjuan rushed out, her hair was disheveled like a bird's coop.

Wang Yongshun stopped her, his eyes full of ruthlessness: "What are you going to do now?"

Li Chunjuan had been crying all day, and had been stuffed with a rag for so long that her throat was hoarse: "I'm going to find that little bitch! I'll tear her to pieces!"

Her things! Her possessions! The property she left for Yaozong!

Today she watched that little bitch pretending, crying and acting, and she wanted to pounce on her and tear her face off!

Clearly, she was the one who broke the windows, water tanks and enamel basins in the house, but in the end, it seemed as if everyone had forgotten about it and were vying to take responsibility for her.

Li Chunjuan felt so aggrieved that she grabbed Wang Yongshun and started crying.

Wang Yongshun also frowned. Wang Ying smashed things at home? Not to mention others, even he didn't believe it.

"Are you telling the truth? It was Wang Ying who smashed it? Not you?"

Li Chunjuan felt even more wronged. How could she smash things? In her eyes, these things were all hers! They belonged to Yaozong! Why would she smash her own things

Wang Yongshun was so shocked when he heard Li Chunjuan tell him the whole story while cursing and crying.

After reacting, he blocked Li Chunjuan's steps even more tightly: "Don't mention this matter again."

Even if she did, what would happen? Wang Ying calculated the time and smashed the things. No one in the house knew that she was the one who smashed the things except Wang Lingling who fainted.

Li Chunjuan had already been criticized for beating someone up, so no one would believe anything she said now. Others would think she was dishonest and was deliberately throwing dirty water on Wang Ying.

"Remember to be nice to San Ya in the future." Wang Yongshun still felt angry when he mentioned this.

He knew that Li Chunjuan was stupid. He had been troubled before, wondering why Li Chunjuan was so stupid, unlike Yongfu's wife, who was always gentle and kind, could read, and had some medical skills.

But after Yongfu and his wife encountered accidents one after another, he no longer thought so.

Being stupid also has its advantages. He coaxed Li Chunjuan into rushing to the front, so he could stay behind and reap the benefits.

Just like the case of Wang Ying, if Li Chunjuan hadn't beaten her so hard this time, Wang Ying would still be held in the hands of the couple!

Wang Yongshun warned Li Chunjuan: "From now on, you must be nice to San Ya and not be the same as before."

Li Chunjuan was not convinced: "Why? Does that bitch deserve it?"

Wang Yongshun had a headache and explained the reason to her: "She is eighteen now. How long will it take for her to get married? Now that you have offended her, do you want to give up her two rooms? Don't be stupid, treat her well. Even if it's just for face. As long as Wang Ying gets married, won't these things in the house belong to us?"

Li Chunjuan was unwilling to give in. She wanted Wang Ying's house, her money, and she also wanted Wang Ying to serve their family as she did before.

Wang Yongshun's brows turned cold: "What's the point of saying this?"

If Li Chunjuan hadn't been so harsh on them, these things would have been theirs. Now, the house and furniture were still okay, but as for having Wang Ying serve them...

How dare Wang Yongshun!

However, Wang Yongshun felt a congestion in his chest, choking him and unable to move.

"You can also tell San Ya about the human matter later. Both her parents are gone, and we have to make the decision on such an important matter. Don't just focus on the present, think about other things."

Wang Yongshun hated Wang Ying so much in his heart. This girl was really trying to make things difficult for his family.

Yes, the two brothers separated a long time ago.

But wasn't his brother dead? Although no obituary was sent back, it was very likely that he had been on the battlefield for so many years and had no news.

When Wang Yingniang was around, he had said it several times, both explicitly and implicitly.

This house belongs to his Wang family. Wang Ying is a girl, so she has no right to inherit the family line! Why should the house left by his brother be given to Wang Ying

That’s a blue brick house!

Wang Yongshun did not think that he was a mean person who took advantage of his brothers. Instead, he thought that Wang Ying and her daughter were ignorant.

If he was really sensible, he should have told me earlier that he would give me the house. Then I could take care of them a little for the sake of our brotherhood.

Wang Yongshun let out a breath of foul air at Li Chunjuan.

"You should keep an eye on her later. San Ya has such a bad temper... She should marry someone who is caring and has a rich family background."

Once you get married, you'll be busy with your husband's family's affairs all day and have no time to find things to do at your own home.
