The Green Tea’s Crushing Victories in the ’70s

Chapter 32: Thirty-two cups of green tea

Views:

Hearing that Xiao Wu was killed, Mr. Wen was so angry that he almost had a heart attack: "That bastard, what is he trying to do?!"

Uncle Zong is also very puzzled by this question.

Before, he clearly said that he would only take one day off, but then he suddenly stopped leaving. When he asked him if something happened, he said that he could not talk about the base.

Then in the past two days, they saw him leaving early and returning to the world at night. They didn't dare to say or ask.

Who would have thought that he actually killed Xiao Wu, and Xiao Liu didn't know where he was taken, which was a bit too much.

But Uncle Zong couldn't say these words: "The commander calms down, if Gui does so, there must be his reasons, maybe it's the base needs."

Old Man Wen's beard shivered with anger: "The base of shit is needed! He studies physics and mechanics, and he's not a veterinarian!"

Even the veterinarian couldn't kill his little five without asking!

The key is that he didn't eat a single bite of meat!

It's too much!

Uncle Zong didn't know how to comfort him: "I'll ask him carefully when I come back in the evening."

Mr. Wen has already thought about it. If Wen Rugui can't give him an explanation when he arrives, he will take care of him.

Who knew he wouldn't! back! Come! ! ! !

When Mr. Wen received the call, he was so angry that he almost swallowed the phone: "you bastard, come home to me now!"

Wen Rugui: "Grandpa, I have to go back to the base tonight, it's too late."

Mr. Wen was furious: "Then explain to me clearly what happened to Xiao Wu and Xiao Liu?!"

Wen Rugui was silent for a while: "Grandpa, Xiao Wu and Xiao Liu can't come back, I'll pay you two chickens later."

Mr. Wen slammed the cane into a thud: "Is that a matter of two chicks? It's Xiaowu and Xiaoliu! The hens I have raised since childhood are just like my own children!"

There was silence on the other end of the phone.

It took a while for a warm and indifferent voice to come over: "Grandpa, you said that they were your children at the beginning, the first two, the third and the fourth, but didn't you make soup or braise them later?"

"… "

Old Man Wen was choked for a moment, and choked his neck and said, "Can it be the same? The younger ones were raised by Xiao Zong, they are Xiao Zong's children, and the fifth and sixth were raised by me!"

Uncle Zong: "..."

Could the children he raised be free to eat

Wen Rugui: "Grandpa, I gave the chicken to Comrade Tong. Her house moves in today. I will pay you back for your chicken."

When Mr. Wen heard this, he didn't care about chicken or chicken: "you said Comrade Tong? Is it a tender grass girl?"

"Um."

The next moment, Mr. Wen was even more angry: "Then why didn't you tell me in advance?!"

The sauerkraut fish that day was so delicious and tender, Xiaowu will definitely be more delicious whether it is soup or braised!

That's why I'm hiding it from you.

Wen Rugui answered in his heart.

In the end it was all over.

Mr. Wen didn't look good for the next few days.

Those who didn't know thought he was feeling sorry for Xiao Wu and Xiao Liu, but only Uncle Zong knew that he was angry that he didn't eat Xiao Wu made by the young grass girl.

After hanging up the phone, Wen Rugui turned around and met Park Jianyi's eyes that were brighter than electric lights.

Park Jianyi: "Wen Rugui, you are very wrong!"

Wen Rugui picked up the bag with the red date cake and said, "It's getting late. Take me to Xingyi Station, where my colleague will pick me up."

At this time, there was no car to go to the base, so he came to the Public Security Bureau to find Pu Jianyi and asked him to take him for a ride.

Pu Jianyi put one hand on his shoulder and said with a grin, "it's not impossible to send you, but you must tell me about you and Comrade Tong."

Wen Rugui pushed his hand away with a blank expression: "The thing about borrowing money..."

Pu Jianyi jumped in anger: "Yes, I won't ask, okay?"

This guy is really getting more and more thieves, how could he be like this before!

Suddenly, the picture of Tong Xuelu teasing him that day appeared in his mind, and he snorted.

Wen Rugui became like this, is it because those who are close to the ink are black

But because he had a handle on him, he didn't dare to ask any more questions, and drove him to Xingyi Station in his unit's car.

After Wen Rugui thanked him, he took the bag and left without saying a word to invite him to eat red date cake.

Pu Jianyi looked at his back as he walked away, his tongue pressed against his back tooth socket, showing the appearance of a toothache.

Wen Rugui asked his colleague Zhou Yan to come and pick him up.

As soon as he got in the car, he met Zhou Yan's inquiring gaze.

He pretended not to understand: "Thank you for coming to pick me up."

Zhou Yan said with a "tsk", "Rugui, what's going on with you these days? Why did you take so many days off at once? Shouldn't you be going back on a blind date again?"

Wen Rugui pursed the corners of his lips: "No."

Zhou Yan obviously didn't believe this: "Look at you, you must have missed other girls! As I said, don't pick them up. You can't remember the other's face anyway. Who is different?"

Wen Rugui said lightly, "Of course it's different."

If you can't even remember each other's face, how can you get to know each other deeply

Besides, marriage should not be just for inheriting the lineage, it should be the union of two souls.

Of course, he didn't intend to say this to the other party.

Obviously Zhou Yan did not intend to continue talking about this topic.

He sniffed like a dog and said, "What delicious food did you bring from home?"

Wen Rugui took the red date cake in his hand and said, "Red date cake."

"Hey, why did I smell the smell of red dates!" Zhou Yan grinned, "I just didn't have enough to eat tonight, give me a piece of it."

Wen Rugui's hand gripped the bag even tighter, and refused, "No."

No, no? !

Zhou Yan was so shocked that his mouth couldn't close: "Rugui, when did you become so stingy? It's just a piece of red jujube cake, I've come all the way to pick you up in the middle of the night, you don't even give me a piece of cake, are you being polite? ?"

Wen Rugui: "I'll invite you to dinner in the dining hall tomorrow."

"Who is going to the dining hall?!"

It doesn't really matter whether you eat a piece of red date cake or not, but Wen Rugui's attitude is really weird.

Zhou Yan turned his head and glanced at him several times: "I said it's like home, you can't be so unconscionable, you look at a lot of red jujube cakes in your hand, will you eat a piece of meat for me?"

Wen Rugui refused again: "If you don't want to eat in the dining hall, then I'll invite you to eat at a state-run restaurant."

"… "

Zhou Yan was puzzled.

He and Wen Rugui have known each other for several years. The other party has always been very generous. When he brings delicious food from home, he will distribute it to colleagues at the base. Why is he so protective of food this time

He felt that the problem should be on the red date cake.

But until he returned to the base, he still couldn't get a piece of red date cake from Wen Rugui's hand.

I'm fascinated.

**

General logistics compound.

During dinner in the evening, Tong's mother talked to the Tong family about the real changes in Tong, and the Tong family looked in disbelief.

Cai Chunlan put a piece of fat in her mouth and said, "Mom, are you telling the truth? Why do I hear it so unbelievably?"

Before Tong Zhenzhen was sent to the farm, they all visited her in prison.

At that time, everyone still remembered how she cursed Tong's family to go to hell, so when they heard Tong's mother's words, no one believed it.

Mother Tong glanced at the second daughter-in-law and said, "I can still make up such a statement to deceive you? Really just didn't figure it out for a while. You can't go out and talk nonsense when you look back!"

The second daughter-in-law's mouth has always been broken. In the past, when Tong Xuelu was there, she went outside and spoke ill of Tong Xuelu to people. Later, after Tong Zhenzhen's accident, she spoke ill of Tong Zhenzhen.

She didn't even think about how others would think of her when she spoke ill of her family like this. She was stupid and didn't know it!

Cai Chunlan didn't expect that her mother-in-law would suddenly attack her, her face flushed red: "I didn't talk nonsense."

Mother Tong was too lazy to care about her, and told her two sons and eldest daughter-in-law: "Since you already know what's wrong, you can't keep holding on to this matter in the future, do you understand?"

Brother Tong said: "what Mom said is true. Zhenzhen's ideological awareness has been greatly improved. I think sending her to the farm is the right one."

Seeing that Big Brother Tong also said the same, everyone had to believe it.

Father Tong said with relief: "your mother is right, she really already knew she was wrong. As her brother and sister-in-law, you should tolerate her more. After all, she is your sister!"

The two sons and daughter-in-law responded quickly.

Then Mother Tong talked about the matter that Tong Zhenzhen asked her, and she planned to go to Tong's house over there after the holiday.

Speaking of Tong's family over there, Tong's mother thinks of Tong Xuelu.

When she didn't know that she was wrong before, she hurt Tong Xuelu to the bottom of her heart. Later, when Tong Zhenzhen came back, she felt that she was split in half, and the palms and backs of her hands were full of flesh.

Although Tong Xuelu was not her biological daughter, she was still very reluctant after all the pain she had suffered for so many years.

It was not until she and Tong Zhenzhen had a conflict and Tong Zhenzhen was sent to the farm again that her mentality gradually changed.

Especially seeing Tong Zhenzhen's skinny and haggard appearance today, she felt so distressed.

She knew it wasn't Tong Xuelu's fault, but she just felt uncomfortable.

Of course she didn't tell anyone that.

At this time, the Wei family was also talking about Tong Xuelu's siblings.

Shen Wanrong said to her wife, "There are a few new children who moved in next door. The youngest child is only three or four years old, but I haven't seen their parents, I'm afraid they're gone."

If the parents were still alive, they wouldn't have handed over such a big matter of moving to a few half-year-old children, but they could not come out.

Wei Zhiguo put the peeled chestnuts into her and her granddaughter's bowl: "Then how did they move here? Is there any problem with their character?"

Living so close, if the other party has a personality problem, he is worried that it will affect his granddaughter.

Hearing this, Wei Zhuzhu's chubby little face lifted from the bowl and said, "Of course there is no problem. Sister Tong and the others are so beautiful, they must be good people!"

Wei Zhiguo was not at all surprised by what his granddaughter said: "Good people and bad people are not written on their faces. Those who are good-looking are good people, and those who are not good-looking are bad people. Do you remember what grandpa said, Zhuzhu?"

Wei Zhuzhu replied in a clear voice: "Remember! But Sister Tong and the others are good people!"

As she said that, she threw the chopsticks away and slipped off the dining table to read the villain's book.

Wei Zhiguo looked helpless.

Shen Wanrong looked at her wife and smiled: "Those children are really good-looking, especially the elder sister, who looks more beautiful than Hibiscus who is out of the water. I always feel like I've seen her look somewhere, but why? I can't even remember."

Wei Zhiguo: "Don't worry, the more you think about memory, the more you can't remember it. Maybe one day you will remember it yourself."

As he spoke, he leaned over and sipped a sip on her face.

Shen Wanrong's face suddenly turned red like a cooked shrimp, she pushed him away and said coquettishly, "You're going to die, if Zhuzhu sees you, you still have a face?"

Wei Zhiguo smiled and showed his white teeth: "Zhuzhu won't see it."

Shen Wanrong gave him an angry look.

**

After Wen Rugui left, Tong Xuelu and the others did not continue to tidy up. After taking a bath, they went to bed early.

Tong Jiaxin was very excited to have his own room before, but when it was time to go to sleep, he was cowardly and stayed in Tong Jiaming's room and refused to leave.

In the end, the two brothers slept in the same room.

The next day was still sunny.

Tong Xuelu still has a day off, but she doesn't plan to go to work in a hurry.

There's still a lot of work to be done in the yard, and she plans to get it all done today.

For breakfast, Tong Jiaming got up and made it, white porridge with sauerkraut.

After Tong Xuelu became green, she made some fried eggs for everyone.

Seeing the fried egg, Tong Jiaxin's frowning brows relaxed.

Just after breakfast, there was a knock on the wooden door of the yard—

"Sister Tong, brother Jiaming, and sister Mianmian, I'm here to play with you!"

Tong Jiaxin heard his family's names being called, but he missed his name and snorted suddenly.

Tong Xuelu leads Tong Mianmian out to open the door.

As soon as the wooden door opened, Wei Zhuzhu's mellow body rushed in: "good morning, sister Tong, have you had breakfast?"

Tong Xuelv replied with a smile: "We just had enough, have you eaten yet?"

Wei Zhuzhu touched her chubby belly: "I'm full too. I've long wanted to come and play with you, but grandma said it's not good to come too early."

Tong Xuelu rubbed her head: "it's not bad, you and Mianmian can play together."

She felt that although Wei Zhuzhu was a bit playful, she was polite and listened to people's persuasion.

Wei Zhuzhu happily held Tong Mianmian: "sister, let's go play together."

Tong Mianmian nodded her head and said in a milky voice, "Sister Zhuzhu, I'll take you to see Xiaoliu."

Wei Zhuzhu looked curious: "Who is Xiaoliu?"

Tong Mianmian: "Xiao Liu is my hen, right there."

Only then did Tong Xuelu know that the hen actually had a name.

Shen Wanrong looked at her granddaughter's back and smiled and said, "This child has been talking about coming to you since she went back yesterday. She usually doesn't want to get up in the sun, but today she got up on her own without being urged."

"By the way, I brought you a pumpkin and a few bags of seeds. You can go back and plant the seeds in the yard, so you don't have to always go out to buy vegetables in the future."

As she said that, she handed over the pumpkin and a few packets of seeds she brought.

Tong Xuelu was planning to grow some vegetables in the yard: "it's great, thank you grandma Shen, but you can take the pumpkin back and eat it yourself."

Shen Wanrong: "We planted the pumpkin in the yard by ourselves. We have grown so many that we can't finish them all. Don't be polite to me."

Tong Xuelv thought for a while: "Okay, then I'll accept it. Grandma Shen, go to the living room and sit down. I'll make some pumpkin pie for everyone to eat."

Shen Wanrong's eyes suddenly lit up: "You know how to make pumpkin pie? Can I have a look with you?"

Tong Xuelu looked at her curious look, and nodded with a smile: "Of course, grandma Shen doesn't usually make pastries?"

Shen Wanrong smiled: "At home, Zhuzhu's grandfather usually cooks, but I never cook."

Suddenly, he was fed a mouthful of dog food.

Tong Xuelu's eyes swept across her fingers, slender and fair, without age spots or thick calluses that she should have at her age, she should have been spoiled all her life.

What a happy woman.

Tong Xuelu asked the brothers Tong Jiaming and Tong Jiaxin to loosen the soil in the yard after washing the dishes, and then came to the kitchen with the pumpkin and Shen Wanrong.

She peeled the pumpkin, cut it into slices, put it in a steamer to steam it, pressed it into pumpkin puree after steaming, then poured in sugar and glutinous rice flour, and finally mixed it into pumpkin dough.

She cut the dough into dozens of small pieces, rounded it and flattened it, and then it was ready for frying.

Seeing Tong Xuelu's quick hands and feet, Shen Wanrong praised her sincerely: "You're so good at your work! I've made pumpkin pie before, but the flour of the pumpkin pie is clumps and clumps, and it doesn't take a while to put it in the pot. The pumpkins turned black, and in the end no one was edible."

But Tong Xuelu's fried pumpkin pie is golden in color and placed round, not to mention how beautiful.

Tong Xuelv said with a smile: "Grandma Shen has won the prize, but I only became familiar with it after doing it a few times."

Shen Wanrong saw that the Tong family still didn't see any sign of the adults, she paused and said, "child, don't think that my old lady is talking too much. Why didn't your parents move in with you?"

Tong Xuelu guessed that she would ask this question, twitched the corner of her mouth, and made a sad look to briefly explain the Tong family's situation.

Including the accident of Tong Dajun and his wife, Xie Jinhua went "crazy" and changed jobs with others to a nearby state-run hotel.

But she didn't say anything about being held wrong, because it was unnecessary.

Shen Wanrong guessed that the Tong family should have a story, but she didn't expect the story to be so tragic.

"It's really not easy for you to support several younger siblings by yourself." Shen Wanrong looked at her softly, "By the way, you are going to work tomorrow, and your two younger brothers are going to school. What about Mianmian?"

Tong Xuelu said, "I want to take her to work with me."

Shen Wanrong: "Isn't that bad? You bring a child on the first day you go to work, I'm afraid the manager will have an opinion on you."

Tong Xuelu smiled lightly: "I can't leave Mianmian at home alone."

She had already thought about the situation Shen Wanrong said, but she had no other better way than taking Tong Mianmian to work together.

Shen Wanrong thought for a while and said, "My family Zhuzhu and Mianmian played well. If you don't worry, you can take them to my house tomorrow, and I'll show you."

Tong Xuelu had a sincere look on her face: "Thank you, Grandma Shen, but Mianmian is a little bit timid, and she likes to stick to me at ordinary times. I will go back and ask her if she is willing."

Tong Xuelu was naturally grateful for Shen Wanrong's offer to help.

But they had just met each other, so she would not give Tong Mianmian to each other easily.

She planned to go out to inquire about the situation of the Wei family later. If her character was decent, this would be a good idea.

The pumpkin pie was ready in no time, and the color was golden and smooth, and it was very appetizing at first sight.

Shen Wanrong picked up one and tasted it. The mouth was soft and sweet, with the fragrance of pumpkin. After eating it, the mouth was full of sweetness, making people want to eat another after eating one.

Shen Wanrong praised again: "Sweet but not greasy, I've eaten pumpkin pie so many times, and yours is the best!"

Wei Zhuzhu and Tong Mianmian and other children also like to eat it.

Because there were so many made, after Shen Wanrong left, she took the pumpkin pie to give to several other families in the alley.

The other families were a little further away, but they still knew the situation of the Wei family.

Tong Xuelv euphemistically found out that the Wei family were all soldiers, and Shen Wanrong had two sons, the youngest of which is now an officer in the Northwest.

The eldest son died when he was on a mission many years ago. It is the home of the martyrs.

The son and daughter left by the eldest son have been taken care of by Shen Wanrong and his wife.

Because the eldest grandson was admitted to the Workers, Peasants and Soldiers University in Beijing, the two elders were worried and brought their granddaughter to Beijing to take care of the eldest grandson.

After Tong Xuelu inquired, she immediately decided to hand over Tong Mianmian to the Wei family to take care of her.

What does she have to worry about in such a red and upright family

Before going to bed that night, she soaked the mung beans in water, and woke up the next day to make mung bean cakes.

After breakfast, she sent the mung bean cake and Tong Mianmian to Wei's house.

Shen Wanrong saw that she had specially made mung bean cakes, and couldn't help but scolded softly, "Forget it this time, you won't be making any more things in the future."

Although she has never been a cook, she also knows that making mung bean cake costs a lot of sugar. In such a situation in their family, it is natural to save a little.

Tong Xuelu smiled and said, "It's not too much trouble to do. Besides, Mianmian also likes to eat."

As she spoke, she handed over half a month's worth of food stamps and meals.

Shen Wanrong originally wanted not to accept it, but seeing how she persisted, she finally accepted it.

Tong Xuelu squatted down and rubbed Tong Mianmian's head: "you will stay at Grandma Shen's house today, play with sister Zhuzhu, and come to pick you up when sister comes back from work, okay?"

She had already told Tong Mianmian about this last night.

The small group is very sensible, but is a little reluctant to let her sister.

Tong Mianmian hugged her and rubbed her little face on her face: "the elder sister has to come back quickly, so I can't let Mianmian worry."

The little dumpling had a milky voice, and her big eyes were full of reliance on her, which made her heart tremble.

Tong Xuelu kissed her little face and said, "Okay, my sister will come back after work, I won't worry Mianmian."

**

After saying goodbye to Tong Mianmian and the Wei family, Tong Xuelu walked towards the state-run hotel.

It takes about forty minutes to walk from where she lives now to the state-run hotel, and there is no bus to take in between.

Fortunately, she has been here for so long, and she is used to walking.

I heard Su Xiuying mention before that state-run hotels usually don't open until ten o'clock, and they need to arrive at the state-run hotel before nine o'clock.

It was the end of summer now, and Tong Xuelu was slightly sweating as he walked all the way.

Tong Xuelv walked to the door of the state-run hotel, and found that the door had not been opened, and it was quiet inside.

She could only wait at the door.

After waiting for about ten minutes, a short and chubby figure walked slowly towards the state-run hotel.

As soon as he saw Tong Xuelu, he snorted: "Comrade Tong, you look so good-looking, if you put it in the old society, you are more suitable to sell laughter."

What the hell!

Is this Tan Xiaoyan sick? !

Tong Xuelu looked at her up and down and smiled: "As you say, you are so short, shouldn't you be selling biscuits?"
