How to Thrive in the ’60s

In order to prepare the meal for the evening, Lao Yun's family suffered a lot of blood.

In the afternoon, Mrs. Yun took out her small purse, took out two jins of food coupons, half a catty of meat coupons, counted some money, and sent Yun Erchuan to the town's state-run restaurant to buy a few cornmeal pancakes and a piece of tofu. , and also bought a bowl of pork head pork stew.

When Gu Shinian and Yun Chang entered the door, the kang table of Lao Yun's house was already set on the kang, and the oily pork head and meat stew, as well as the fragrant green onions and fried tofu were hot in the earthen pot on the stove, and the greedy embolism was lying on the stove. On the bellows, saliva dripped down.

Li Hongmei didn't care about the embarrassment, she sat on the edge of the kang with her head lowered and did not speak, the corners of her mouth were slightly lowered, and her face was not very good-looking.

Seeing Yun Chang and Gu Shinian coming in, he just looked up and turned his face away.

On the contrary, the old couple of the Yun family and Yun Erchuan quickly got off the kang and greeted them with a smile.

"Comrade Gu Xiao is here, hurry up, hurry up and sit on the kang." Mr. Yun greeted him as he put down his dry tobacco bag.

The old lady Yun took Yun Chang from Yun Shuilian's arms, put her on the edge of the kang with great difficulty, and touched her little head:

"Shangnan is here. Milk has prepared something for you and Comrade Gu Xiao. There is meat! And tofu! I'll have to eat more later."

Yun Chang nodded with a smile, and took out the cloth bag in her arms, "I'll bring you something delicious, too, and I also brought sweet cakes for brother Shuanzi, all prepared by brother Shi Nian. ."

"This baby, what gifts do you bring when you come to eat at home! You can't take it out, just put it in a bag, and bring it back to my aunt to eat later."

The old lady didn't look at what gifts the two of them brought, and put the bag back into Yun Chang's arms, then turned around and greeted Gu Shinian to get on the kang quickly.

Li Hongmei also relinquished the position of the edge of the kang at this moment, hugged the peg, and retreated to the window without saying a word.

After Yun Shuilian washed her hands, she quickly brought out the fragrant stewed vegetables, tofu, cornmeal pancakes, and a few black and hard buns from the crock pot, and put them on the bamboo grate, and put them on the kang table together.

The small room was soon filled with the smell of pig head and meat stew, which smelled like a hook, making everyone in the room drool. Even Shuan Zi stretched out his small arm, pointed at the kang table, and hurriedly pronounced the word "eat" in his mouth.

Li Hongmei had a dark face, and slapped Shuanzi's arm with a slap. In Yun Erchuan's cold eyes, she swallowed the curse that was about to blurt out, and reached out and poked Shuanzi's head:

"What to eat? You are greedy! Do you have teeth? Can you bite!?"

Shuanzi already understood Hao Lai's words, and immediately burst into tears as he stretched out his hand towards Yun Erchuan. Yun Shuilian, who was on the side, lowered her face, snatched the emboli from Li Hongmei's arms, and turned to place it beside Mrs. Yun.

From beginning to end, no one in the Yun family took care of Li Hongmei, and the scene was quiet and awkward.

Gu Shinian glanced back at Li Hongmei, opened Yunshang's bag on the head of the kang, took out a piece of boiled cake and stuffed it into Shuanzi's hand, and put the remaining four pieces of boiled cake and bacon on the kang table.

The old Yun family's eyes straightened when they saw the bacon.

How much does it cost for such a large piece of bacon!

"Grandpa Yun, this bacon is what Ah Chang honored you and Grandma Yun, and Ah Chang prepared the bacon for younger brother Shuanzi..."

"Oh, where can I do this, this, this meat is too precious, and cooking cakes are also precious, you can take it back and eat it yourself!"

As soon as Gu Shinian opened his mouth, the people of the old Yun family came back to their senses. The old man shook his hands, wrapped the bacon, and glanced at the half-eaten boiled cake in Shuanzi's hand. After struggling with his eyes, he quickly put the rest The four boiled cakes were wrapped and stuffed into Yunshang's hands.

"Shangnan, be obedient, this is a fine food that only the wealthy and wealthy people could afford in the past. You can keep it for yourself and eat it slowly. And this meat..."

"Grandpa Yun, don't worry, I've saved Ah Chang's share for her, these are for Shuanzi. Shuanzi is now growing up.

Even if adults don't eat it, they should supplement the emboli. "

Mr. Yun looked back at Shuanzi, hesitated for a while, and finally accepted the bacon and boiled cake with a sigh.

Yun Chang also turned his head to look at the embolus, who was sitting beside Old Madam Yun, nibbling on the cake. The thin body supported the big head, like a big-headed doll.

The two-year-old child has only a few teeth, his face is dry, and there is no flesh at all.

Seeing Shuanzi's appearance, Yunshang deliberately beat Li Hongmei to Shuanzi in her heart, and she and Gu Shinian looked down on her behavior even more.

If this is replaced by a smart person, even if she is not satisfied with her meal with Gu Shilai's old Yun family, she will not vent her anger on her own child. Instead, he would bring Shuanzi to the table, taking the opportunity to give him a few more bites of meat to make up for it.

But Li Hongmei chose the stupidest way.

Didn't see her beating, it made the faces of everyone in the Lao Yun family look bad, and no one even greeted her to come over for dinner, so she could only stand dryly under the kang by herself, not sure if she should squeeze on it or not. Eat at the table with everyone.

"Comrade Gu Xiao, it's a bad time now, and there's not much to eat at home. You can only buy cornmeal pancakes in the town, so you can make do with one bite."

There were only three cornmeal pancakes on the table. Mr. Yun put one in Gu Shinian's hand and another in Yunshang's hand. The remaining pancake was divided into two halves and stuffed into the hands of Yun Erchuan and Yun Shuilian. Then one person took a black wowotou and gnawed it.

The family started the meal like this. Li Hongmei saw that no one was calling her to go over for dinner, her face darkened even more, she turned around, and went out and went back to her room.

Yun Chang secretly pursed her lips and smiled, looked up at Gu Shinian, saw him nodding, she put down her chopsticks, broke half of the cornmeal cake in her hand and stuffed it into the old lady's hand.

"Milk, you can eat it too. This cake is delicious. I can't finish it all. You can help me eat half of it."

At this time, the cornmeal cakes weighed half a catty, about the size of Yunshang's head, and she really couldn't eat them all at once. The old lady took the cake and put it on the kang table, her face almost turned into a chrysanthemum with a smile.

"Oh, my dress is really filial! Good, grandma can eat wowotou. I'll keep this half of the pancake milk for you. I'll take it home when I leave later. I'll eat it tomorrow morning."

The old man squinted and smiled when he saw Yun Chang's actions.

During the meal, no one from the Yun family asked Gu Shinian's identity, nor how the bacon and boiled cakes that Gu Shinian gave as gifts came from.

The calm Yun Shang of the Yun family was curious.

On the dinner table, the flavor of the braised vegetables is strong, the fried tofu is fragrant, and even the pickled vegetables mixed with chili peppers taste exceptionally good.

The Yun family ate almost only pickles, and their chopsticks seldom reached into the only meat dish on the table.

Yun Chang saw all this in his eyes, stretched out his small hand, and took several chopsticks for the old couple to cook vegetables, and watched both of them eat it coquettishly, and then he picked up the tofu with satisfaction.
