70’s Villian Female Educated Youth
Chapter 53: Lunar New Year's eve
Gu Zheng's chicken was bought from the brigade, and so was the fish.
At the end of each year, several ponds in the village will implement dry ponds, and then the fish in the ponds will be caught and raised in a specially dug and watered fish pond. The other sun-dried fish ponds will be cultivated in one year. After that, the fat mud in the pond is picked up, and then placed in the field, and the grain that is planted in the future does not need to be fertilized.
Gu Yao stepped forward with excitement to take the two fat fishes, and was pleasantly surprised to Qin Lingling: "Sister-in-law, we have chickens and fishes."
Gu Zheng said: "More than a year."
Qin Lingling asked curiously: "Where did you buy the chicken and fish?"
"Bought it by the brigade. It is a special case at the end of the year. No tickets are needed. I bought the fish and chicken and it was cheaper."
Gu Zheng's words seemed to be a little bit cheaper because Qin Lingling thought it was too expensive.
Qin Lingling really didn't believe it, "Really it's cheap?"
"Well, it's cheap." The man couldn't see the slightest sign of lying on his face, and he said to his sister: "Yaoyao, go and boil hot water."
"okay."
Gu Zheng killed the fish and Gu Yao boiled the water. Qin Lingling couldn't help, so she could only pick vegetables from the vegetable plot.
The plot was too small, and the vegetables that she planted were almost gone. She felt that she had to open up some place.
Just thinking about it, footsteps came.
Qin Lingling looked back, and Gu Zheng asked as she walked, "You planted this?"
Qin Lingling nodded, "Yeah."
Her vegetable field is the same as that of a dog chewing, but the victory is still fertile and pest free, and the rain is appropriate, so there is such a good harvest.
Unfortunately, the ground is a bit small.
Gu Zheng glanced around, but saw Qin Lingling frown, "What's the matter?"
"This vegetable plot is a bit small, I can't grow anything if I want to grow it."
In fact, she still has a lot of vegetables she wants to grow. After all, the south can be green in spring, summer, autumn and winter. In fact, every household in the countryside does not lack vegetables, but meat is rare.
Gu Zheng said: "I will discuss with the brigade at that time to see if I can give some wasteland. You can plant some wasteland at that time, and you don't need to plant too much."
"Row."
"Yaoyao said let us go up the mountain to pick up some good luck and go home." Gu Zheng said again.
"what?"
Gu Zheng said that Daji water is something that every household needs on New Year’s Eve. It is collectively called Daji water. It consists of seven things, including pine needles, orange peel, rose, cinnamon, etc. On this day, these things are also called Daji grass. .
Qin Lingling used to be alone and didn’t pay much attention to the New Year. She only knew that New Year’s Eve requires reunion, so as long as she has time, she would spend the New Year with her older brothers and sisters from the orphanage. Growing up, everyone has their own family and life. Gradually, they lose the feeling of the year. The year has passed and the tastelessness. In the end, she feels that the New Year is a painful thing. Everyone is happy and reunited. nothing.
Gu Zheng took two steps, but watched Qin Lingling stop suddenly and shouted: "Let's go!"
"okay."
Both cassia twigs and pine twigs need to be picked in the mountains, so the two went to the mountains first, and then came back to pick other things after picking them.
Along the way, Qin Lingling was very curious about the customs of this village and asked Gu Zheng many things. Gu Zheng also answers questions.
When someone passes by, you can see the couple talking and laughing.
The two met Guizhi first, and Gu Zheng explained to Qin Lingling that the leaves of cinnamon sticks smelled strong and that cinnamon bark was a kind of spice.
Qin Lingling listened all the way, like a learning baby, listening very carefully.
She actually knows a lot of vegetation, but there are still a lot of things she doesn't know.
However, Gu Zheng is very familiar with the plants and trees in the mountains, no matter what it is, he can talk about it.
This made Qin Lingling more curious about Gu Zheng. When she went to pick the pine branches, Qin Lingling couldn't help asking him, "How can you know so many things?"
Gu Zheng paused, pondered, and said, "When the troops are training in the field, they have to learn more than this. Besides, it is not surprising that I am a rural-born person who knows more."
"Oh." Qin Lingling didn't doubt that he had him.
Gu Zheng knew in his heart that he knew so much, not just because it was so simple. In the years after his death, he saw more and naturally learned more.
And these, he can't say.
After plucking the pine branches and then coming down, Gu Zheng walked halfway, stopped suddenly, and then walked into the grass.
Qin Lingling asked: "What's wrong?"
I saw Gu Zheng drilled out of the grass and handed her a few thin green leaves, "This is for you."
Qin Lingling took it and didn't understand, "This is also a kind of good luck?"
"No, this is for you. Try it?"
For the sake of his sincerity, Qin Lingling didn't doubt that he had him, so she quickly wiped two tender leaves, put them in her mouth and chewed.
"hiss……"
A sourness spread in her mouth, and she frowned subconsciously.
"So sour!"
Qin Lingling yelled, and in the next second, she saw Gu Zheng in front of her and smiled without sympathy.
His smile was still vague, unlike others who laughed loudly, except that it was very different from his usual stern face, and Qin Lingling knew he was laughing at her.
With a feeling of being caught, Qin Lingling looked at him disgustingly, "Are you deliberate?"
Gu Zheng waved his hand quickly, "No, no, I didn't mean it." As he said, he gave her a sincere face.
"Yaoyao used to like to eat this leaf, so I thought you liked it too, but I didn't expect you to dislike it. Just now..."
"But you laughed at me." Qin Lingling looked at him angrily. Although she was not angry, she felt embarrassed.
She must have looked ugly like that just now, and that's why people who are as serious as Gu Zheng couldn't help laughing.
Gu Zheng waved his hand quickly, "I didn't want to really laugh at you, just now I just couldn't help it..."
"So I'm still laughing at me."
Gu Zheng: "..." Thinking about it this way, it seems to be true.
But he didn't mean it, just seeing her facial features wrinkled just now, and he thought it was cute and funny.
Looking at Qin Lingling's back walking quickly, although she was not very upset on her face just now, Gu Zheng was still not sure whether she was angry or not.
He finally understood why his comrades in the army would often say that women are hard to guess.
He is actually kind!
Gu Zheng hurriedly followed, followed her, and took a bit of inquiry, "Lingling, are you really angry?"
"no."
Listen, I'm really angry.
"I didn't mean it just now, I thought you would like to eat, that's why..."
"I know."
When getting along, Qin Lingling also knows that Gu Zheng is not the kind of person who can make fun of people, so she is not angry, even because of his kindness, so she doesn't know how to get angry, but just because of the joke, her face is a little bit awkward. That's it.
Gu Zheng didn’t understand women’s thoughts, and his sister Gu Yao was the one who got along the most since childhood, but the difference between the siblings was a little bit older, so he was just like his brother taking care of his sister, not so particular, but Qin Lingling was different. NS.
I was thinking about waiting for a while, but Gu Zheng suddenly ran up to her, "If you are angry, hit me!"
Qin Lingling: "..."
Seeing a man who looked like a man rushing to life and death, Qin Lingling was very depressed at first, but couldn't hold it back, and laughed, "What am I doing when I hit you?"
Gu Zheng was also stunned, "Didn't I make you angry? You just slap me to vent your vent." While talking, he patted his chest and said, "You can hit anywhere."
"You really can play anywhere?"
"It's okay, you just don't get angry."
Qin Lingling can't laugh or cry, how straight this guy is, she can't tell whether she is happy, angry or sad?
But think about him being mixed in the barracks. He is all men. It is estimated that he has never gotten along with a woman in a real sense. It is not surprising that a tendon can't turn.
She couldn't help getting closer, raising her head slightly, with a somewhat inquisitive tone, "Gu Zheng, have you never been with a girl before?"
"Yes, yes."
"Yes?" Qin Lingling was startled by the amount of information, and hurriedly asked, "Who?"
She didn't even notice that she was a little anxious to ask.
Just listen to Gu Zheng's seriousness, "There are so many lesbians in the family, so naturally they have been together."
Qin Lingling: "..."
So I still haven't got along with other women, which makes my brains hard to turn around.
"All right, I see."
okay?
Gu Zheng looked at her without understanding, followed up, "You don't beat me to vent my anger?"
"Why should I beat you, hurt you, who will support this family? Do you have to pay for medical expenses?"
"It's okay, I'm rough and resistant, and I don't need medical expenses if I fight."
Qin Lingling suffocated a smile, "Then it's useless if I hit you. It doesn't hurt or itchy to hit you. I hit your hand with your **** body."
This is impossible to fight.
Gu Zheng seemed a little depressed.
Qin Lingling walked a few steps and found that Gu Zheng was still thinking about things, her slightly frowned brows and two long black eyebrows were almost joined together.
Yu Guang looked at the piles of pink flowers on the grass, Qin Lingling squatted down hurriedly, pulled out a few, and then waved to Gu Zheng, "Gu Zheng, come here."
Gu Zheng hurried forward, "What's the matter?"
Qin Lingling hid both hands behind her, and said with a smug look: "I have found a way to punish you, but it is not to beat you."
"what?"
"Here, this, eat it!"
Three flowers and plants were placed in front of Gu Zheng, one with pink flowers, two with green leaves, and the leaves were three petals, called sorrel, a kind of clover, but the two stems and leaves were thick and fat, with a lot of juice. , Bite up, sourness is not just a little bit.
Gu Zheng looked at the grass, and Qin Lingling said, "Since you have been sour, you should also be sour. It's a tie."
"real?"
"Of course, but I have to finish it."
"Row."
Without saying anything, Gu Zheng took off the flowers and leaves, grabbed the root and took a bite.
Seeing what he was eating, Qin Lingling frowned and blinked. Qin Lingling became happier as he watched, but when he was about to eat the third one, Qin Lingling snatched it over.
"Okay, just eat two, and then I'm afraid your teeth will fall."
"Um."
Gu Zheng laughed. Qin Lingling didn't pay attention to that smile. She always felt a little honest and silly, beautiful facial features, which led to this honest smile, Qin Lingling looked so a little idiotic. NS.
"What's the matter?" Gu Zheng asked suddenly.
When she came back to her senses, Qin Lingling coughed hurriedly: "No...nothing." Of course she wouldn't tell Gu Zheng, she almost fascinated Gu Zheng's smile just now.
Putting everything aside, just looking at his facial features is much more beautiful than the little fresh meat in many entertainment circles. Now the little fresh meat in the entertainment circle is a little bit in the direction of a mother, but some loses his masculine charm. Gu Zheng is so masculine. The sassy ones are much rarer.
To avoid embarrassment, she pointed to the piles of sorrel, "Let’s pick these flowers and go back and raise them! Just to fill in some color for the New Year."
"Okay. I'll dig some white radishes by the way for you to taste."
"Little white radish?"
"On this kind of grass, there is a little thing underneath, like a radish, sweet."
Qin Lingling didn't believe what he said, "Could it be that you lied to me again?"
"No, it's so sweet, you'll know when you dig it."
Qin Lingling looked curious, because she had planted sorrel. Although there were some differences, there was no white radish.
But how did she know that this wild sorrel blooms red, and it is the time when they desperately bloom and grow small radishes from the end of each year to the next spring.
The little radish is not as white as the radish. It is a bit transparent. After washing and biting, it tastes sweet and delicious. When children are hungry and greedy, they will dig some of these and eat them. But this is only what children like, but adults don’t like these things.
Gu Zheng took the stick and started digging these little radishes. Qin Lingling watched from the side with a curious look on her face.
After a while, Gu Zheng dug up a whole sorrel. In addition to piles of yellow-brown seeds at the bottom, there was also a small transparent radish underneath.
"really have!"
"Well, this is delicious, you can wash it in the water over there and eat it."
"okay."
To Qin Lingling's surprise, this little white radish was really sweet, the taste was sweet and refreshing, and it was not delicious.
"Is it delicious?" Gu Zheng asked.
Qin Lingling didn't behave too deliciously. After thinking about it, she said inadvertently, "It's okay, I can make do with it."
Gu Zheng shook his head and smiled, and dug more for her.
Gu Zheng was digging small radishes, while Qin Lingling picked some fresh flowers and went back, preparing to raise them in a small pot.
Seeing Gu Zheng bending down and lowering her head, earnestly digging a small carrot for herself, Qin Lingling suddenly felt that this man was more honest and honest than she thought. According to the routine, this kind of thing should not happen, but Gu Zheng clearly did. Kind of to please her.
"Such a good man! I don't know whose girl will be cheaper in the future?" Thinking about this, Qin Lingling was sad.
Just in time, Gu Zheng looked back and suddenly smiled at her. With that smile, Qin Lingling felt that her heart had missed a beat.
When he came back to his senses, Gu Zheng had already dug up and came towards her.
When the two returned, the surrounding atmosphere was good.
Gu Yao could see her brother-in-law talking and laughing from a distance, and her relationship was very good, and she couldn't help being happy for the two of them.
"Brother, sister-in-law, you are back, the hot water is ready, you can kill the chicken."
"Um."
Gu Zheng handed the big lucky water to his sister, "Take this in first, heat up the pot by the way, and steam the muscles later." After that, he said to Qin Lingling, "I'll kill the chicken first."
Qin Lingling doesn't know **** chickens. She waited for Gu Zheng to finish killing before helping to pull out the chicken feathers. Someone happened to call Gu Zheng.
"Shanzi..." The man saw Qin Lingling and shouted again, "Sister-in-law, kill the chicken."
Qin Lingling was unfamiliar with the person, and smiled politely, as if to say hello.
Gu Zheng put down the chicken and introduced: "This is Jianfeng, my partner who grew up with me, I will go back when I go, and let me get the hair out later."
"okay."
As soon as Gu Zheng left, Li Dani came out of the house, walked up to Qin Lingling, and looked up and down.
"Kill the chicken."
Qin Lingling ignored her.
"Where did it come from?" Li Dani asked again.
Qin Lingling glanced at her sideways, and then returned angrily, "You didn't steal it anyway."
"Huh, how do you talk?"
"I don't speak well, you don't need to talk to me, and I don't want to talk to you."
Li Dani was choked to death, just as Gu Dashun came out of the house. She trembled and hurriedly left.
As soon as she left, Qin Lingling smiled, this is the best product for bullying and fearing hardship!
Gu Zheng came back not long after he left, took the knife and dropped it, and quickly opened the chicken and cleaned it.
Qin Lingling hurriedly prepared the ingredients for dinner. Yesterday she bought some mushrooms and various sauces.
Those two fish are very big. Gu Zheng said that they are called male fish, and the soup of male fish head is superb, so Qin Lingling intends to braise the fish with soy sauce.
The other one was still alive and kicking. Qin Lingling said that she kept it in a water tank and planned to wait until she finished eating.
In the room, everyone was busy, and Qin Lingling handed over the peeling of green onion, **** and garlic to Gu Yao, who was boiling water, and prepared the condiments and ingredients by herself.
There are too few pots at home. There are three pots in total, one large pot, one large pot and one small pot with two shallow pots.
The shallow cauldron usually heats hot water for bathing, and the boiler is big and deep. Qin Lingling put the steamed vegetables on the wooden stand, and steamed the chicken and rice together.
Most of the chickens in the village are chopped on white, mixed with light soy sauce and salted shallots, so as to preserve the umami taste of the chicken and not taste too delicious.
The pot for cooking fish soup used a large deep pot. Half a pot of water was placed in the pot, and the fish heads were put in. There was just pickles, half of them were put in, and a few small beans were put in it.
Another pot started a series of tasks such as cooking stuffed fish.
After more than half an hour, the chicken was finally steamed. There was half a plate of oily soup under the big plate of steamed chicken. Qin Lingling used it to stir-fry the greens, and kept some. You can continue to stir-fry and taste the greasy soup tomorrow.
For people of later generations, perhaps these greasy soups will choose to filter out, but for people who are lacking in supplies and who don't see much fishy throughout the year, this is simply a fairy day.
After Gu Yao picked up the steamed chicken, washed the pot, and started to boil the bath water. Gu Zheng was in charge of the physical work, chopping the chicken, chopping wood and carrying firewood to the house.
The three of them were busy, and when the sun gradually faded to the west, there was still the last green vegetable of the meal.
The water was hot, and Qin Lingling asked them to take a bath after finishing their work.
"There is one last green vegetable being fried. I will be able to eat later."
"it is good."
This is the first time Qin Lingling has experienced this busy reunion. She has been extremely excited all day.
Compared with their lively preparations for the New Year, the family of four next door looks much more deserted. Although the meat is still as much as last year, the family of four is busier than last year. The atmosphere in this house is not as harmonious as usual. NS.
The siblings looked at each other, and in this shivering atmosphere, try to keep as quiet as a chicken. But the quieter it is, the more the fragrance of the next door floats here.
"It's a bit fragrant." Gu Guoqiang touched his nose helplessly and muttered.
Gu Chunhua didn't even dare to say anything, and set fire quietly.
"If we didn't divide the family, we would be able to eat so much." Gu Guoqiang didn't have a big voice, but the room was quiet, and the other three heard clearly.
Li Dani shook the spatula angrily and said, "Then I don't want to split up, go to your brother, don't come here."
Gu Dashun smoked with a bored head and said nothing.
After a few troubles at home, I don't know if he is owing something, or simply because of his self-esteem. Now he doesn't like to talk, and he doesn't like to think about what happened next door.
It is natural to regret the separation of families. After all, the adopted son is capable, but it is also useless to think about this. Regret is useless, and the children and grandchildren will always have their own family.
When a family of four regretted and felt distressed, the three people next door had already taken a shower and started eating.
The fragrant and greasy chicken, the rich flavor of fish, and the sweet fish soup and green vegetables.
"Well, it's delicious, delicious..." Gu Yao praised Qin Lingling as she ate.
Even Gu Zheng couldn't help but said, "It's delicious."
Qin Lingling was embarrassed when she was praised, she blushed and smiled, "I just did it indiscriminately, not as exaggerated as Yaoyao said."
"Sister-in-law, it's true. It's really delicious. I feel like you keep surprises me, brother, don't you think?"
When asked by her sister, Gu Zheng naturally complimented her, "Yaoyao is right, the food is delicious."
"Hey, yeah, can you always do what my brother said, sister-in-law?" Then, Gu Yao pulled her brother's arm again, "Brother, you are so lucky to marry a good wife like a sister-in-law, in the future But treat your sister-in-law well."
Gu Zheng: "Yeah."
"Then let my sister-in-law hurry to give birth to a fat little nephew, hehe, so I can be an aunt, and I will take care of the child."
Gu Zheng: "..."
Qin Lingling: "..."
Qin Lingling didn't know whether to cry or laugh, the sister-in-law was thinking long-term.
Seeing the two people not talking, Gu Yao was puzzled, "What's wrong? Am I wrong?"
Qin Lingling decided to be as quiet as a chicken, not to express any opinions, and to lower her head to eat well.
Gu Zheng glanced at her and responded, "Your sister-in-law is still young, don't worry about these things."
"Oh, OK!"
This topic, except that Gu Yao was a little disappointed when he first heard it, and then quickly skipped it.
Reunion on the New Year's Eve, everyone puts on new clothes after dinner.
Most people actually have nothing new or new clothes, sewing and mending for three years and three years, at most, washing clothes looks newer.
After eating and drinking enough to wash the dishes, the two aunts planned to go out and drop by.
Every family was either eating at this time or was already full. The two walked around, and when they got home, the sun had already set.
The sky is getting dark, crackling sounds are heard everywhere, and the children seem to be playing with firecrackers, welcoming the new year.
Gu Zheng also came back from another home and watched the two aunts talk about a firecracker. They both asked each other if they would dare to play?
Qin Lingling said: "I don't dare, I'm afraid of blowing up my hands?"
Gu Yao said, "No, the incense is very long, so it's okay if you point it farther away."
"Still afraid, it's better not to play."
Gu Zheng approached and said, "Do you want to play a firecracker?"
The aunt nodded frantically and shook her head hurriedly.
I saw that Gu Zheng didn’t know when he was holding a small bag of things in his hand. Gu Yao took a closer look and saw that it’s just a firecracker that can only be played occasionally every Chinese New Year.
Seeing Qin Lingling's panic and fearful look, Gu Zheng said: "Don't be afraid, I'll give it a little bit, you can just watch it."
Qin Lingling thought she wouldn't be able to play anymore, but when she watched the siblings take this small row of firecrackers one by one, they were happily playing. She stood not far away and watched, suddenly her heart itch.
Want to play.
Gu Zheng came over, holding incense in one hand and red firecrackers in the other, and asked, "Want to come and play?"
"I... still can't do it." She refused, but the envy and curiosity in her eyes could not deceive people.
Gu Zheng put the firecracker and incense a hand, stretched out his hand, and said to her: "Come, don't be afraid, I will teach you how to play, it won't blow you up."
"But……"
"Sister-in-law, come to play, it's so fun. It's just this once a year, don't miss it." Gu Yao was already addicted to playing and waved her hand to let Qin Lingling pass.
Qin Lingling has played with fireworks. They used to buy a bunch of fireworks for a few dollars during the Chinese New Year. When they grow up, the fireworks in the city are gorgeous. She likes to watch from the window. Occasionally, I would go to the square with my friends to take a few photos, even if it was the New Year.
"Is there any danger?" Qin Lingling asked.
"No, and I will protect you."
The author has something to say: Have you ever eaten the little radish of sorrel? When I was young, I often went to the vegetable garden to dig and get a lot of seeds. The next year, I can't remove them. The adults scolded while being angry.
By the way, ask for a nutrient solution!
Only one update, after I was too excited to update yesterday, I streaked like me, and now I update. (┬_┬)
