My 1979

If one of them had experienced the world and was stable, Li He wouldn't be so opposed. They are young men in their twenties. If they are more impulsive, there will be no bones left that will be eaten on both sides of the Huaihe River in black and white.

The next night, Fatty Chen refused to let a few people leave. "I'll call Li Hui and the others over again. If we don't drink bears, it won't be over."

Fatty Chen insisted on cooking by himself and kicked his wife out. When he encountered someone who didn't understand, he shouted to his wife through the door.

Li He laughed and scolded, "You cook a meal, three left and four left. Is that okay? If not, I will go home and eat."

"That won't work. I'll show you a trick, wait a minute." The fat man shouted from the kitchen.

When the fat man brought the mutton pot, Li He found that the fat man was not bragging. The mutton was boiled over high heat and stewed slowly over low heat. The minced meat was very clean and the meat was very rotten. It was tender and delicious with no mutton smell at all. .

The pork ribs were also stewed for a long time, and the bones and meat were separated. It was fragrant and delicious. The cabbage was also stewed very badly, and it tasted like meat.

Several children who were playing in the yard came in looking for the scent, sniffing at the doorstep and looking at it eagerly.

These children are all the children of the neighbors, and some are the nephews of the fat man.

The fat man held a rice spoon and wore an apron, like a housewife, and told the children to go home and get their bowls. Then he gave each of them half a bowl.

The room was a little dark, with a yellow incandescent lamp shining hard, casting a circular circle of light on the table.

The wooden table seats eight and is covered with a plastic tablecloth. The tablecloth was printed with tacky red and green flowers, but it was the most fashionable decoration.

Li Hui didn't follow any etiquette when he came, he just found an empty seat and sat down.

Chen Yongqiang kept steering the topic toward sand absorption, but Li He ignored him.

After three rounds of drinking, everyone was tipsy, tongue-tied, and couldn't speak clearly. The fat lady looked at the group of "drunkards" and felt dissatisfied, so she secretly hid in the kitchen and chatted with the strong wife.

The five grown men got drunk and started singing and punching. The small house instantly became extremely lively.

After drinking until about nine o'clock, the fourth child took a flashlight and walked in. "Brother, it's completely dark. Let's go back."

Li Hehui lost a lot of boxing, drank too much, and was a little confused. Seeing the fourth child coming, he just found an excuse to leave. He glanced at Li Long and said, "Let's go."

Li Long's drinking capacity was already high. Drinking even half a pound was not a problem. He was just in the mood, and he was embarrassed when he heard Li He's words.

Li He said, "Then let's go first."

Li He was a little dazed after drinking, and he hugged his fourth son and said, "Sister, if you are happy, I will be happy to die again."

The fourth child was confused when he heard this.

Although the land has been allocated in the village, no one can complain about the large amount of land. They all wish they could plant flowers in the land, which are very delicate.

Most families have a small vegetable garden in front of their house and behind their house, where they plant Chinese cabbage and spinach. The good land is reserved for growing wheat. Even Wang Yulan planted seasonal vegetables such as cabbage, radish, and potherb in the canal at the door.

There are also people in the river dam slopes and depressions who are clearing wasteland. As long as they are not excessive, the people in the brigade basically turn a blind eye.

At this stage, Li He and Lao San went to the ground several times to build a long bank and build a bank to facilitate the drainage of water during the rainy season. After working for two days, Li He felt that he couldn't straighten up even after bending down. Looking at the third child, he looked like a normal person and said that he was not a farmer.

But I can't give up my job, so I can only grit my teeth and endure this boring job.

Seeing that it was the day to worship the stove, the rules were to make dumplings. Li He had already eagerly finished the meal. Wang Yulan cooked the clear soup every day and was tired of eating it. Every time before a meal, Wang Yulan would remind Wang Yulan to cook one. Meat, you can remind me once, but if you remind me every day, Li He will be annoyed. Sometimes Li He went to Fatty Chen to buy meat, and Wang Yulan would pickle it and insist on keeping it for the New Year.

Wang Yulan got up early in the morning and started cleaning the kitchen, and even the whole house.

Because we had to eat well in the evening, we could just make some noodles for lunch. After finishing lunch, Wang Yulan slowly took out the basin and scooped out a ladle of semen from the noodle jar. When the noodles came out, I scooped out half a scoop of sweet potato noodles and mixed it in, then poured in water to mix with the noodles.

While Wang Yulan was making noodles, the fourth child put on a big apron and helped Wang Yulan chop the vegetable stuffing.

Originally, Wang Yulan wanted to chop a piece of Chinese cabbage and make vegetarian dumplings, but Li He immediately gave up.

"I just eat Chinese cabbage every day at school. Why do you give me Chinese cabbage and vermicelli when I go home? I finally came back and you don't make me a delicious meal. Besides, it's not okay to eat poorly during the Chinese New Year." What a good sign!”

Wang Yulan was very superstitious. After listening to the second half of Li He's words, she reluctantly added some meat and asked Lao Si to chop it into pieces and mix it with the Chinese cabbage vermicelli. Li He lamented that his eldest sister Li Mei was not at home, and the food treatment was much worse. He secretly said to the fourth child, "You can cook from now on."

The fourth child said with a grimace, "We have a lot of things in our house. If we put too much noodles in, my mother will know it."

Li He almost looked up to the sky and sighed!

After the sacrifice to the stove, there were several heavy snowfalls in succession. Li Long and Da Zhuang chased several rabbits from the wheat field, and the food was finally improved.

When the New Year is approaching, Li He is going to the county to prepare some New Year goods.

The fourth child said, "Brother, would you like to take me there? I have never been to the county seat."

Li He thought for a while, then nodded in agreement, "Then wear thicker clothes. It's cold outside. Put on your leather boots. You'll really save them for the New Year."

Turning a blind eye to the tearful Lao Wu next to him, he turned a blind eye and turned a blind eye. This kid was a burden to carry around.

Asked Li Long again if he was going, Li Long shook his head, he was tired of going already.

Li He took the fourth child and took a bus from the commune. It was already eight o'clock when they arrived at the county bus station. As the Chinese New Year approaches, the county is busier than ever. Li He asked the fourth child, "Are you hungry? What can you eat?"

The fourth child's eyes are not full, and everything he sees feels new. When her second brother asked, she stretched her hand in the air and pointed to a restaurant: "Let's eat at that restaurant."

It turned out to be a pancake shop. The pancakes in that shop seemed to be delicious. There were many people queuing up on the roadside to buy them. Li He and his fourth son were in line behind them.

Suddenly someone turned around and shouted in surprise, "You are Li He!"

Li He glanced at the girl in front of him and couldn't remember who it was for a moment. She probably knew her, but he couldn't remember her name. He said embarrassedly, "Sorry, I can't remember."

The girl smiled heartily and said, "I'm Bian Mei. No wonder, everyone has changed a lot after so many years since graduation."

Li He patted his head and finally remembered that this was his high school classmate. Probably the surname is rather unique, and there are very few people with the surname Bian. Li He had such a classmate in his memory. After all, more than fifty years apart, it was difficult for Li He to name many people.
