Chapter 0321 Winter Leisure 1
I heard that a pair of reactionaries had come to the cowshed, and several of the cadres who dispatched Mr. and Mrs. Xu had to speak with their own ears. Therefore, except for the need to use manure to go to work, the fathers and the villagers all walked around the cowshed, for fear of the reactionaries. The existence of himself provokes right and wrong.
In this way, Feng Qingxue and the others were clean, and they didn't have to worry about the smell coming out of the door when they were eating meat.
However, in order to save Uncle Xu and Aunt Xu, there were no white flour eggs left at home, only one piece of bacon was left, but there were still dozens of kilograms of rice left, but two more mouths were added to the family. In addition to using rice for porridge, Feng Qingxue usually cooks with whole grains.
Sweet potato porridge, pumpkin porridge, dried sweet potato porridge, corn ballast rice...
Multigrain pancakes, corn noodle wowotou...
Fortunately, I received letters from Huo Beiting and Lu Jiang at this time, as well as the property sent by Cao Hui and Wang Xinru before departure.
They first thanked Feng Qingxue in the letter, and then asked her to take care of their son. Finally, they said that they would send all the food stamps that they had not used up recently, and they would send them monthly after a few months, because They have assignments, and they are uncertain about the duration of assignments.
Both of them are in the army, and there are no old or young at home. Although they have helped their comrades in arms and their families, they tried their best to save food and send it to the northwest due to food shortages, so they saved no less than 100 catties of food stamps, flour stamps and coarse grain stamps. In addition, another 100 yuan was remitted, and the package contained two cans of malted milk extract, three cans of luncheon meat, some fabrics, and two old and new military uniforms.
"Gangzi, your parents sent you something, are you happy?" Feng Qingxue touched Song Gang's head.
She often mentioned Cao Hui and Wang Xinru in front of Song Gang. Although Song Gang had never met them, he was very impressed. He remembered that his parents were always thinking about him. Because they were busy, he temporarily lived in Lu's house.
"Happy!" Song Gang nodded his head.
He was young and often starved, resulting in lack of nutrition and slow development. A four-year-old child was about the same as a two-year-old child. He was far less intelligent and energetic than Feng Qingyun. After I went to play, I didn't even look at the table full of things, and I didn't know what meaning these things represented at all.
Feng Qingxue smiled, put it away, and opened a can of luncheon meat for everyone to eat at noon.
"Wow, we are all dazzled by Gangzi!" Several children were beaming, and the chopsticks were lowered very quickly.
The food stamps sent by Cao Hui and Wang Xinru greatly relieved the family's food pressure.
She asked Guan Cheng and Lu Tianjun to go to the city with money and tickets to buy finished food directly. When she usually cooks, she takes out a little food from the space and mixes it with it. In a bowl of noodles, a small half bowl is in the space. , the family can't see it at all, which not only fills the family's stomach, but also slows down the consumption of food at home.
Different from other families, even during the winter break, she keeps her family full. For the old and the young, it is difficult to ensure health if you do not have enough to eat.
It is not quite correct to say that it is winter slack, because Wang Zhengguo arranged for some of the strong labor to dig the river, and also asked the captains of the production teams to arrange other men and women to fertilize the crops. Sprinkle a layer.
Father Lu, Uncle Xu, and Aunt Xu all had to work. In order to earn work points, Lu Tianjun and Guan Cheng were also busy.
Even in winter, the stench around the cowshed is stinking.
In the stench, many potbellied women smashed the ice formed by the dung water and shoveled the dung onto the car one by one.
Chapter 0322 Winter Leisure 2
In the entire Wanglou Brigade, there are not many idle people except for those who are lazy.
Feng Qingxue and Wang Jiao were both included in this list because they were too delicate to go to work, and there were many people who were envious, many were jealous, and many were ridiculed.
"If they don't have such a good fate, they will gossip!" Wang Jiao came to Feng Qingxue and said while eating melon seeds.
The people who gossip about them behind their backs are women, and women with bad luck.
Feng Qingxue smiled, "We really didn't work!"
In everyone's eyes, not working is a sign of laziness.
Wang Jiao took it for granted: "I have Yuejin to support me, and I have a reason not to work. Why are they so sloppy? It's not like I didn't work when the farming was busy. Besides, you have a big belly now, so it's okay if you don't work. It's normal!"
She touched Feng Qingxue's belly and exclaimed, "It's so big, is it a boy or a girl?"
"I don't know." The current hospital does not have advanced B-ultrasound technology to identify gender, but she doesn't care at all, she put down the swaddle she was doing, her face was full of maternal tenderness, and said with a smile: "Whether it's a boy or a girl, They are both my baby and Lu Jiang's, there is no difference."
Wang Jiao said, "How can there be no difference? Boys are boys, girls are girls, if they are the same, there will be no distinction between men and women, otherwise there will be so many abnormal dead baby girl? Actually, I don't like it, but many people do it. How long have I been married? Yuejin's mother stares at my belly every day, thinking I don't know what she's thinking."
Feng Qingxue shook her head, There is no way to take this situation.
Therefore, in the 21st century, the ratio of males and females is imbalanced, and many parents cannot marry daughters-in-law, which is purely self-inflicted.
There are a lot of bachelors now. Regardless of natural or man-made disasters, the first ones to be abandoned are always girls, and more and more men survive. If there are no corresponding girls to marry with them, they will naturally become bachelors.
The Caohu Brigade was poor and had many bachelors, while the Wanglou Brigade was rich, and the number of bachelors was more than half, and now it has become a sweet pastry.
"I heard that many girls from other production teams want to marry to our Wanglou." Wang Jiao said enthusiastically, "I know of several, and Yuejin's mother is looking for someone for her niece!"
Feng Qingxue was not interested in these things, "Cousin, it's almost New Year's Eve, is my cousin's husband's supply of non-staple food increasing?"
Mentioning this, Wang Jiao immediately smiled, "Of course, the supply of non-staple food will be increased every year during the Mid-Autumn Festival and the Spring Festival. Chickens, ducks and geese only have It will only appear in these two seasons, and usually there is none at all. What do you want to buy? I will tell Yue Jin and let him reserve it in advance."
Feng Qingxue was about to say that she did not have the corresponding tickets in her hand when she heard rumors from outside. To the voice of the postman.
"Did Lu Jiang send you something?" Wang Jiao jumped up, more excited than she was.
Compared with Wang Jiao, who ran out in three steps at the same time, Feng Qingxue walked in a leisurely and steady manner. She took two large parcels and a few letters from the postman, "Comrade Feng Qingxue, your letter and stuff are here."
"Thank you, Comrade He Hai."
Because the postman often comes to deliver letters and packages, everyone is familiar with him.
He Hai smiled and said: "This is what we should do, no thanks. Okay, I'm leaving, I have a letter to send!"
Chapter 0323 Plan ahead 1
The package came from Northeast China and Inner Mongolia, not from Lu Jiang, so Wang Jiao didn't have the heart to make fun of Feng Qingxue.
Feng Qingxue felt very comfortable, no matter what Lu Jiang's comrades sent, she didn't want to be forced to open it.
Raising her hand and looking at her watch, Wang Jiao said in surprise: "It's eleven o'clock, I have to go home."
"Cousin doesn't need to cook, why go home? Eat at my place at noon." Feng Qingxue politely retained her.
Wang Jiao waved her hand, "I'll go to my mother's house and help her cook the pot, so that my dad won't say that I eat for free when I stay for dinner! The stench around your house is full , and you eat delicious food in your mouth. I won't stay if it's all tasteless." Because she ate at her parents' house, she greatly saved the food she brought to her in-laws, so her in-laws didn't care whether she did housework or not.
Watching Wang Jiao's back move away, Feng Qingxue shook her head and went back to the house to unpack letters and packages.
Sure enough, it was sent by Lu Jiang's comrade-in-arms.
The things they sent before were all from last year, but this time it was this year's prey and specialties. The beasts were very fat in autumn and winter. Especially Hu Ping, who lives in the Corps, is afraid that the fragrance will spread out and let people smell it, and report them as digging socialist corners, but the food sent to them by Feng Qingxue is more practical.
Zhou Dingguo, a comrade-in-arms in Inner Mongolia, is okay. They live on the grasslands and can't meet another person on horseback all day and night.
In addition, Hu Ping sent some mink skins, some deer antlers and two wild ginsengs, and Zhou Dingguo sent some old sheepskins and two wolf skins, saying that they would make winter clothes for Feng Qingxue and his family.
Feng Qingxue hurriedly took out some materials from the space and mixed them in, and the number doubled immediately.
At that time, she traveled all over the world, collecting countless specialties from all over the country, including Northeast China and Inner Mongolia.
However, she does not plan to take it out for her family to eat at one time, and cook a meat dish for three or four days, so as not to be found out that she has eaten too much oil and water, and she has not given it to relatives and friends, worried that it will lead to trouble.
After experiencing the criticism of Uncle Xu and Aunt Xu, her actions became more low-key and cautious.
Today, she wears all the clothes and shoes she wore before marriage. These clothes have been worn in front of people, so now everyone who wears them knows whether they are new, although they look new. Moreover, the coats of the rest of the Lu family were all patches on top of each other, and she also added two patches without patches, trying to keep everyone as blank as possible.
In front of people, Uncle Xu and Aunt Xu did not have any contact with Feng Qingxue and the others.
Father Lu agreed very much, "Before Ajiang was at home, when you got married, Zhang Yang was publicized. How will you come to the bottom in the future?"
"Our family has Ajiang's salary, who believes that our family is living a poor life?" Feng Qingxue smiled road.
"Then don't be eye-catching." Father Lu finished speaking, then looked around the table, "Do you know why people like us are at this point? Except for people who deserve their sins, everything else is caused by two words, that is, Qiu Fu The majority of the peasants have finally turned around and managed to be the masters of the family. Of course, it is not good for us. Eyesore is a disease that cannot be cured since ancient times."
Uncle Xu nodded and said, "Brother is right, that's what happened. We are down and we live a miserable life than them, so they are happy and feel comfortable, so they won't come against us."
Feng Qingxue sighed silently, isn't this the reason for many of the situations a few years later?
Therefore, you must change your previous lavish behavior.
Chapter 0324 Plan ahead 2
First of all, with Lu Jiang's salary and food stamps, in the name of the army, the families of the sacrificed comrades-in-arms were subsidized.
What happened to Song Gang reminded Lu Jiang. After Master Ye told Lu Jiang, even though Feng Qingxue never complained about Lu Jiang's troublesome behavior in the letter, Lu Jiang still wrote to her. Full of apologies, he said that he had not considered it carefully, and immediately had the above remedy, and sent it directly from the army, without leaving any information about himself and his wife.
He still took pity on the families of those comrades-in-arms, and Feng Qingxue did not object to this.
Secondly, Feng Qingxue's access to the black market no longer uses food to exchange jewelry and antiques with people, but spends money.
If you spend your own money to buy jewelry and antiques that cannot be exchanged at the bank, the owner can use the money to buy grain in the black market. After all, the vast majority of grain sellers who recognize the money are old farmers in the countryside.
And those people have to exchange jewelry and antiques for food, isn't it because they can't sell it?
Only when trading supplies with comrades can't hide personal information, but fortunately most of them don't know each other.
Feeling the sincerity of his comrades-in-arms, Feng Qingxue took advantage of the clear sky to walk, so Feng Qingxue went into the city alone by looking for Wu Zheng's pulse, disguised herself, and sent them some coarse and fine grains. After thinking about it, he sent some food. After the cloth marshmallow salt, some modified frostbite medicines and bruises medicines were sent.
With air-dried meat, there is less food to eat, so there is no loss in food.
Feng Qingxue doesn't help people casually anymore. She has a big belly and goes out less often, so she naturally sees fewer poor people. Out of sight is pure, and she has no guilt. The family often sighs in front of people with the appearance of having too much food and not enough food. After a long time, everyone knows that their family is not having a good time.
That being said, this morning in Xiao Nian, Feng Qingxue opened the door and almost stepped on the person at the door.
A young man collapsed at the door of his house, his clothes were thin and tattered, and his body was covered with wind and dust. He was holding a broken bowl in one hand, and the other hand was like knocking on the door.
A little snow fell in the middle of the night, and a thin layer fell on him.
"Tianjun, Acheng, come quickly!"
Feng Qingxue tried his breath, which was extremely weak, and then touched his heart, still with his heartbeat and residual heat, hurriedly called his nephew to come and carry him to the east side room, where he poured a few Hot water in his mouth, and then rubbing his heart, hands and feet with alcohol, finally saved his life.
When the young man woke up, he saw Feng Qingxue standing beside the bed. Although he was dressed in plain clothes, she had plump skin and snowy skin and long eyebrows. He looked like the most beautiful woman in the Republic of China.
He immediately opened his eyes wide and stared blankly at Feng Qingxue.
"You...I..."
"Hey, are you awake?" Lu Tianjun stretched out his hand and waved in front of him, then spread out his five fingers, "What time is this?"
"Five!" After the young man answered this childish question, he thought He sat up, but was weak, lying on his back on the bed with a very depressed expression.
Guan Cheng brought a bowl of brown rice porridge to him, "Let's have something to eat first!" He handed him a cornmeal porridge.
The young man did not know where the strength came from sitting up. He took the bowl and drank it in one go. He devoured the wowotou and burped as he said, "He Hongjun is under, thank you for your life-saving grace, thank you, thank you!" , doesn't forget to give them a hug.
Chapter 0325 - Passing By 1
After listening to He Hongjun's words and watching his actions, Lu Tianjun raised his brows and looked at Guan Cheng.
Then, he turned his face and asked He Hongjun: "Comrade He Hongjun, why did you show up in front of our house? Do you know that if something happens to you, our family can't get rid of it." Feng Qingxue
did not stop the nephew's question. , she also has this question.
He Hongjun scratched his head embarrassedly, and said without concealment: "I'm here... oh, no, I went to Shanghai to go to my relatives, and it would be bad to pass by. I think your home is a new house and a new courtyard wall. The conditions must be good, I just want to knock on the door for a night, and beg for hot food and hot water, how can I know that before I knock on the door, I will faint from hunger."
Even if you beg for food, you have to have a wink to pick people, those shabby houses He didn't go to the door at all, because he knew that people's life would be bad, and he didn't need to waste other people's life-saving food.
Speaking of this, He Hongjun was instantly grateful, and he grabbed Lu Tianjun, who was closest to him, with both hands, "Little brother, thank you, thank you, if you don't save me, I will starve or freeze to death! There are so many good people in the world, While begging all the way, although it is inevitable that I will encounter evil voices and call me a debt collector, but there are many people who are willing to give me a bowl of hot soup and half a nest, which makes me stick to this place from my hometown. Thank you, thank you, thank you very much, I will definitely repay you in the future!"
It turned out that they were passing by, not asking for trouble, not to mention Lu Tianjun and Guan Cheng, even Feng Qingxue was relieved.
Having experienced what happened to Uncle Xu and Aunt Xu, they were all afraid of causing trouble.
If their composition is good, it's fine, but the Lu family's composition is not good. Now they all live under the protection of Feng Qingxue, and their composition has never been from their father or husband, so the Feng Qingxue sisters are still poor peasants and their roots are red.
"That's it, Comrade He, then you can rest in my nephew's house before heading out." Feng Qingxue finished, and then said to Lu Tianjun and Guan Cheng, "It's snowing again today, and it seems that it will definitely get worse and worse. Big, you stay at home and don't go out."
Lu Tianjun and Guan Cheng nodded at the same time.
Lu Jiang was not at home, and Feng Qingxue was very observant of the defense between men and women, and was unwilling to let go of the slightest bit of talk.
He Hongjun was very winking and sensible. He got out of bed and said, "No, no, I have to get on the road while the snow is small, otherwise I won't be able to leave when the snow is heavy."
Feng Qingxue did not hold back. After thinking for a while, "Since you're in a hurry to get on the road, then we'll lend you five yuan."
He Hongjun was stunned for a moment, then overjoyed, "Comrade, are you really willing to lend me money?" The train goes to Shanghai, liberating two legs that have no strength to walk like noodles.
Feng Qingxue nodded, "Let's go after you have eaten. I will ask our captain to open a letter of introduction for you, and take the letter of introduction to buy a ticket." Although the current price is very low, the price of the train ticket is very high. Therefore, most people are basically reluctant to travel far away if there is no important matter of life and death, and many people who work in distant places, such as military third-line workers, spend their wages on train tickets.
The fare to Shanghai is about two yuan and a dime. Feng Qingxue remembered it at a glance when she bought the ticket.
"Thank you, thank you... I'm so grateful, I'm so grateful!" He Hongjun is not someone who doesn't know what to do, of course he knows that this is very good for him and is his only way out, so as to save himself from begging for food all the way.
Chapter 0326 - Passing By 2
Feng Qingxue moved quickly, she raised her foot and went to Wang Zhengguo to open a letter of introduction.
He Hongjun's origin is unknown, and he is a young man of good age.
After asking the reason, Wang Zhengguo wrote and stamped, and said, "Alas, after so many years of natural disasters and man-made disasters, how many years did the people who escaped from the famine and beggars not see dozens or hundreds of people coming to our production team? Today, I was passing by, You, just get used to it."
After he finished speaking, he paused and said to himself, "He Hongjun, this name sounds familiar."
"Uncle, do you know him?" Feng Qingxue couldn't help but ask. one sentence.
"I can't remember." Wang Zhengguo shook his head, "When you get old, your memory is not good."
Miao Fengqin pursed her lips. As soon as she heard the name He Hongjun, she felt that she had heard it somewhere. I already remembered that when Wang Jiao was dying to marry Lu Jiang, she talked about Zhang Yuejin and He Hongjun.
Because Zhang Yuejin is a relatively outstanding young man in Wanglou Brigade. Among Wang Zhengguo's candidates for son-in-law, he mentioned it before Wang Jiao, so Miao Fengqin didn't find it strange, but he had never heard the name He Hongjun. At that time, she wanted to ask her daughter, but she was angry again. Later, her daughter ran away from home and suffered a sap and lost that memory, so she pressed the name He Hongjun to the bottom of her heart. Later, she noticed it secretly, and found that there was no such person as He Hongjun nearby or near her parents' house, so she was completely relieved.
After so long, she thought she would never hear the name He Hongjun, but she didn't expect him to appear.
It's good to send it off, and send it off quickly, so as to avoid extravagant branches.
"Don't be long-winded, quickly write the letter of introduction and give it to Xiaoxue to take it back." Miao Fengqin urged.
In front of her niece, Miao Fengqin was of course reluctant to bring up her daughter's past, not to mention that this He Hongjun should have left after getting the letter of introduction.
Wang Zhengguo said angrily: "I know, I know, what are you urging, the letter of introduction can't be written in one stroke."
Without getting an answer, Feng Qingxue didn't take it to heart, and returned home with the letter of introduction and five yuan. Give it to He Hongjun.
"Thank you, Comrade Feng." When Feng Qingxue went out, He Hongjun already knew that their family was a family member of the military. The surprise when he woke up immediately weighed down in his heart, and only gratitude filled his face.
"No thanks, everyone is just helping each other."
With that being said, Feng Qingxue let him eat breakfast to let Father Lu know about such a person.
Uncle Xu and Aunt Xu were afraid of causing trouble for them, so they didn't come to eat when they knew that outsiders were there. Instead, they cooked some sweet potato porridge on the stove in the cowshed. Anyway, they had Wowotou pancakes and pickles prepared by Feng Qingxue there.
The Lu family did not eat a lot in the morning, such as brown rice porridge, cereals, fried pickles, radish beans and other home-cooked meals.
Lu's father was very mature, and in a few words at the dinner table, he took out He Hongjun's origin.
He is a native of the capital, his family has no parents, and he is not allowed by his brother and sister-in-law, so he plans to go to Shanghai to marry.
After dinner, Lu's father asked Feng Qingxue to bring him a stack of pancakes and a few wowotou and pickles to eat on the road.
So, He Hongjun left gratefully.
Chapter 0327 Beef in the Snow 1
After He Hongjun left, Lu's father said to Feng Qingxue: "This person has ambition and ability, and he is definitely not in the pool."
"Dad, you can even see this? Where did you see it?" Feng Qingxue was very curious, isn't He Hongjun just an ordinary young man who has passed by and is very depressed? Appearance and temperament are unremarkable.
Lu Tianjun and Guan Cheng were very young, and they looked at Father Lu with question marks in their eyes, "Yes, how did you see that?"
Father Lu smiled and said, "After the death of my parents, I can't be with my brother and sister-in-law, so I decided to leave home instead of Staying in front of his brother and sister-in-law as an eyesore, which shows that this person is extremely decisive and courageous. People are far from their hometowns, and many people would rather freeze to death at home and starve to death than go out to find a way to survive. He did not choose to wait for death, which shows that he is very courageous. Moreover, he chose to live in Shanghai with a childless aunt, which shows that he is very smart and ambitious. What is Shanghai? After settling there, there are so many benefits. He is willing to give his aunt's retirement in exchange for his own shelter. It means that he knows how to exchange for equal value, and he has both affection and how to grasp the weakness of people's hearts."
Feng Qingxue was thoughtful, and Lu Tianjun and Guan Cheng also nodded, they all understood that Father Lu was teaching them how to know human ability.
"Yes, he is very smart. I remember what he said. He said that he always chooses people with good houses and yards for begging, because the probability of begging is very high." Guan Cheng suddenly said.
Lu Tianjun continued: "Sure enough!"
"There are thousands of people in the world, and no one knows who is good and who is evil when they meet for the first time, nor does he know whether the person he saves will value love and righteousness in the future, or repay kindness and hatred, whether to flourish or continue. It's down and out, so you have to pay attention to receiving people and things."
Having said that, Father Lu took the enamel jar handed by Guan Cheng and took a sip of hot water.
"It is better to forge a good relationship than to forge grievances. If you save a person who is affectionate and righteous, no matter whether he develops in the future or not, he will remember your kindness. Although a person who is ruthless and righteous may not be willing after he develops Bring up your poor past, but treat him like a normal person instead of ridiculing him. Even if he doesn't repay his kindness I can't guarantee that my beauty today will be the same in the future, and I can't guarantee that others will still be down today. Can he help me?"
"Unless he dies on the spot, he has no power to turn around." Father Lu said in a low voice, "I would rather offend a gentleman than a villain. Do you think this sentence was born for no reason? No. It is the insight summed up by the sages of all dynasties. If you offend a gentleman, you will not bring trouble to yourself. A gentleman is magnanimous, he doesn't care about minor things, and he no longer cares about it with a smile. The villain is different. Turn over and deal with those who offend you first, there are no exceptions."
Feng Qingxue strongly agreed with this, "So we must be kind to others everywhere, because none of us can predict what will happen in the future. Of course, doing good deeds must be done while ensuring our own safety. Do what you can and pay attention to your sense of proportion."
Father Lu nodded, "No matter whether He Hongjun is good or bad, saving him today will be beneficial to us."
Chapter 0328 Beef in the Snow 2
Five yuan and a little food, in exchange for one person's no grudges, is enough.
As for the reward, Shi En doesn't want to repay it, so there's no need to think about it at all.
Then, Father Lu said: "We have the conditions. When giving kindness, we must pay attention to our attitude, consider the self-esteem of the other party, don't show a face of giving, and be kind and amiable. It is better to lend to them. Not to mention giving it to them. Some people pride themselves on being strong, and even if they are down, they are unwilling to eat what they came for."
Feng Qingxue, Guan Cheng and Lu Tianjun all expressed that they were taught, and secretly kept it in their hearts, they didn't care who they were saving. Good people or bad people, the premise is that the person being rescued must not bring danger to their own family.
Fortunately, it was snowing when He Hongjun came and went, and he didn't make any waves in the Wanglou brigade.
The life of the Lu family is peaceful.
It snowed and it was a small year again. All the laborers did not have to go to work, so they were finally able to take a breath. And because the rations were sufficient this year, there was no need to worry about starvation, and everyone was smiling.
At this moment, Wang Jiao jumped up and down to look for Feng Qingxue.
"Xiaoxue, Xiaoxue!" Wang Jiao shouted from outside the door. After receiving Feng Qingxue's answer, she ran into the house and lowered her voice, "I have good news for you!"
Feng Qingxue laughed and said, "What good? What news? I'm all ears."
"My family Yuejin said that there will be beef for sale in the grocery store tomorrow, do you want it? If you want, I'll let him stay."
"Beef?"
"Of course I want it. It's good to have beef for Chinese New Year without pork! But, I don't have any meat tickets in my hand."
Wang Jiao giggled, "No tickets, 50 cents a pound!"
"You don't need a ticket? Is there such a good thing?" Beef and mutton are cheaper than pork, and Qingxue knows it. Cows are laboring animals and are more honorable than people. It is better to starve people than cows. This is the case of many production teams. There is a consensus, so it is easy to see beef, unless it is a dead cow, mutton has more lean meat and less fat, and the taste is not fragrant, so the price is low. .
"It's a good thing for us, but not for others!" Wang Jiao lowered her voice, "I heard that the snow was so heavy that the cowshed collapsed, and this calf was caught in the snow house. Liang Cao Duozi broke two legs. He couldn't cure it. He was lame and couldn't work. Therefore, he was sold by the production team to the supply and marketing cooperative, which was sent to the city. Yuejin was in charge of slaughtering and selling, not supplying Inside, don't need a ticket, several agencies and people who walk through the back door have already reserved the part they want."
Feng Qingxue quickly took out ten yuan and stuffed it into Wang Jiao's hand, "Cousin, I'm sorry to trouble my cousin, I will definitely give it to you. Let's save some good meat."
"Twenty pounds?" Wang Jiao was taken aback, "No, no, we can't share that much, many people are staring at it! At most, Yuejin can give my mother's house and his house yours. If you get five or six pounds of meat each, if you get more than that, you will be dissatisfied."
Feng Qingxue smiled and said, "Cousin, take it first, and give us as much as you can."
Wang Jiao then took the money, " Well, I'll go back and tell him, he has to go back to the city in the afternoon, and he won't be back until the meat is sold tomorrow."
The next evening, she brought beef to her parents' and Lu's.
The Wang family got five catties of beef belly, a beef shank, and a bit of butter, and the Lu family got six catties of tendon meat and a beef shank.
Chapter 0329 Slaughter the pig and divide the meat 1Seeing the meat, the child was happier than anyone else, covering his mouth tightly, for fear that the excited screams would come out.
Lu Tianjun and Guan Cheng didn't use Feng Qingxue to do anything, they quickly boiled a pot of hot water, washed the beef and the beef shank separately, divided the beef into seven or eight pieces, and cut the beef shank into three pieces with an axe.
The two children lit the stove overnight and simmered the beef and beef bones.
The fire is boiled, the foam is skimmed off, and the fire is simmered slowly.
"When I wake up tomorrow morning, I will have soup and meat to eat." Feng Qingxue drove the child back to sleep, and stood by herself in front of the stove, studying Lin Qiaozhi's writings while watching the fire in the stove.
She recently sorted out the space books and found all the works of Lin Qiaozhi, which was a pleasant surprise.
At that time, when she collected all kinds of books, she didn't have time to read, so she bought them all and put them in the space.
Lin Qiaozhi is a pioneer of obstetrics and gynecology in her own country, and a medical scientist. Her writings contain her experience, her research results, etc., which is of great learning significance for the current Feng Qingxue.
Because, she has the most contact with mothers and babies who have fallen.
After reading that her eyes were sore, Feng Qingxue rubbed her eyes and looked at the time. It was ten.
She turned off the fire, put the sand basin upside down on the lid, washed her hands, washed her face, soaked her feet, ate a bowl of bird's nest with rock sugar that had been stewed and stored in the space, brushed her teeth, and cleaned up in ten I went to sleep at half past midnight and woke up at six o'clock.
Adequate sleep and rich nutrition keep her in good spirits.
The spirit is good, the skin condition is also very good, the white is rosy, and the radiance is radiant.
Before dawn, the children were all asleep. Feng Qingxue gently got up to wash, drink water, and cook. On the way, he did not forget to drink a cup of hot milk, eat a handful of red dates, walnuts and fruits.
The soup in the pot has solidified into a white layer of oil, which seals the soup.
Feng Qingxue knocked on the oil seal, took out the bones and meat and put them in a vegetable bowl on the side. There was a lot of soup in the pot, so he took out a piece of meat from the pot and put it on the chopping board, and then scooped out half of the soup from the pot and poured it into the pot. in the basin.
The rest of the soup is boiled, and when the family gets up, put in the rolled black noodles, chopped green onion and cabbage leaves.
When the noodles are cooked, add the sliced beef, and the fragrant beef noodles are ready.
Remembering that there is meat to eat, the children all got up half an hour earlier than usual.
The old and the young in the family had a big bowl of noodles with soup, but Feng Qingxue only drank a bowl of soup.
Beef is hot, and a bowl of soup on a cold day will warm up the whole body.
Later, Feng Qingxue heard from Wang Jiao that several of them also stewed meat soup at night, rushing to eat it secretly before other family members got up or after falling asleep at night, and hid it during the day, for fear that the aroma of meat would spread to the neighbors and make people smell it. Then go above and report them for hedonism.
The beef bones are very durable, and they are boiled once a night. First, the soup is snow-white and still fragrant, and then it becomes clear water.
At this moment, Wang Zhengguo announced to kill pigs!
The word "killing pigs" fell, and the entire production team was boiling.
Kill pigs and eat meat!
Many people haven't tasted meat for several years, so they only got to eat meat after attending Lu Jiang and Wang Jiao's two weddings.
Therefore, when they heard about the killing of pigs, men and women, young and old, said they would go and help.
Chapter 0330 Kill the pig and divide the meat 2
The Wanglou Brigade also has mission pigs, no exceptions.
The chickens, ducks, fish, pigs and sheep in the city's non-staple food stores are all raised by farmers and then handed over.
To be on the safe side, the Wanglou Brigade is confident that there is sufficient feed and food, and that men, women and children are willing to play pig grass to earn work points in their spare time, so they raised two more piglets. Luckily, although one died on the way, the other three pigs thrived. grown up.
Two task pigs have been handed in, and there is another pig in the production team, which weighs about 120 pounds.
After the news spread, Feng Qingxue looked at the calendar and found that Wang Zhengguo set the day to kill pigs on New Year's Eve, and the location was set in the open space in front of the branch secretary's office.
Why did you choose such a day and such a place, Feng Qingxue said she didn't understand, so she went to take a look.
Early in the morning, before dawn, the open space was full of activity. There were many people gathered in the open space, everyone had excited smiles on their faces, and the children kept wiping the saliva from the corners of their mouths.
Build a stove, pull firewood, set up a large pot, and boil hot water. A few strong laborers carried a black pig with five flowers tied up to the open space. Miao Fengqin led many women to handle the piles of cabbage, radishes, potatoes, sauerkraut, and red peppers. Wait, it was raised from each household according to the head, washed and cut, and filled one after another with large pots.
As if expecting his fate, the black pig let out a tragic cry.
Feng Qingxue was taken aback by the sudden scream, she stretched out her hand and stroked her chest, and said to the children at home, "The little one is here to play, the older one goes home to help me, don't watch the fun."
You can't not prepare your own meals just because the production brigade kills New Year's pigs.
Guan Cheng and Lu Tianjun immediately followed.
I received a letter from Lu Jiang two days ago, and Feng Qingxue went into the city to send a letter and traveled alone, and brought back a lot of things, including white noodles and a piece of pork, chopped stuffing and used it to make dumplings.
There are many people in the family and the weather is cold, so you can freeze dumplings. She prepared five kinds of fillings.
Pork and green onion stuffing, leek and egg stuffing, oil residue cabbage stuffing, pumpkin stuffing, sauerkraut stuffing.
Father Lu, Uncle Xu and Aunt Xu came to help.
The entire production team gathered at the pig slaughtering site, and no one paid attention to whether the second old man entered or left the Lu family.
After the dumplings were wrapped and frozen, they were put into a sand tank with snow and ice outside. A few children rushed back, and before anyone entered the door, a loud voice came in, "Get a bowl and divide the meat!"
It turned out that after the New Year pig was slaughtered , and it goes straight to the pot.
Bone soup is boiled in four large pots, and pig water, pork, and pig blood are stewed in one pot. There is so much meat, of course, there is more than one pot. Several large pots of stewed meat contain more vegetables than meat, but it is fragrant and thick. The scent fills the air.
When Feng Qingxue's family arrived, there was already a long queue in front of the stove. No matter men, women, or children, everyone was carrying a bowl. Wang Zhengguo and the production team leaders stood in front of the pot with spoons and were responsible for serving food to the villagers. In the bowl, there is one tablespoon per person. Whether this spoonful is full of meat or vegetables and soup depends entirely on luck.
Feng Qingxue didn't deliberately rank in the team in charge of Wang Zhengguo and Wang Dachun, but the person who served her meat didn't dare to be careless at all, a full spoonful, 70% meat and 3rd dish, and very little soup.
The meat is on the bottom and the vegetables are on the top, which is not at all inconspicuous.
After getting the meat, one person can go to get a big bowl of bone soup.
Everyone had a share, except for Uncle Xu and Aunt Xu, Father Lu and them were very sensible and didn't show up.
