There is Room for Rebirth in the 1950’s

The old lady Liu got up and explained to Lin Lishan: "This girl Liu has a lot of hands and feet. She usually takes care of both of us. She is calm and doesn't live much. You live in the courtyard in front of you. You will sit down for a while and wait a while. "

Old man Liu watched his wife leave, and continued tea for everyone, "This girl and the girl Liu are real, and they don’t talk too much, so they are considered to be our people. Usually our old couple live there, and she takes care of us, cooks, and cooks. I wash clothes and clean up the yard, work swiftly, and after a long time, I will know how to maintain furniture. I don’t charge money, and I usually give some rations. There are too many children in the family. Only two men in the family work to support the family and even have food and clothing problems. Can't reach it. When they are busy, just give them 2-3 catties of food stamps."

Lin Lishan nodded after hearing this, and asked him: "Master, do you usually buy firewood on the street or someone sends it to you?"

Old man Liu smiled and said: "When Liu girl comes over, you will always ask her. She knows better than me and asks her about all the details of life. She collects all the supplies in my home. For example, how to use her in the living room. All know. She just brought you familiar and familiar."

Zhao Dashan saw that Zhou Xiao was looking at the table and chairs in the living room and asked curiously: "Brother Zheng, do you see anything famous?"

Zhou Xiaozheng looked at Old Man Liu and saw that he hadn't stopped him, and said, "If you don't see the details, you know that these are from the Ming Dynasty. They are all red sandalwood. They are rare and well maintained. Father, your ancestors are southerners? "

Old man Liu stroked the handrails and recalled, "Yes, my ancestors were from the south, and my grandfather's generation began to stay in Beijing. Slowly all the clans moved to the pass, and they were in the northeast for several generations. The juniors below have forgotten. My ancestral land is still in the south of the Yangtze River, where the mountains and rivers are beautiful, and the birds and flowers are fragrant. We are old and old, and our ancestors have all moved here. My ancestors probably can't find a place. My wife is also in Suzhou, and it is slow after Beijing. Slowly move north, now there are not many people in Ancestral Land."

After saying that, I laughed first, "Your ancestors are not really from the Northeast. There are a lot of people who broke into the customs, especially the old patriarch of your Zhou family village often said that he was in Beijing. He also said that he wanted to go back and have a look. I left after speaking."

Zhou Xiaozheng knew that the old patriarch he was talking about should be the old man who often sighed in his head when he was young. When he thought of that old man, he paused in his hand, "The old man and our patriarch are old acquaintances? I still remember him. He is a good man and a good elder. It's a pity that he left without even leaving a word. It's hard to know some of his preferences now."

"He often came to inquire about news in the capital, and that's how he met. He is really good. He likes to listen to gossip. Hehe, he likes to listen to gossip everywhere."

Zhou Xiaozheng lowered his head thoughtfully, and after a moment. Even if I looked up and saw the old man smiling, he still showed nostalgia from the vicissitudes of life, worried about the old man’s sadness, and changed the subject abruptly, "Master, would you think that frame beds are popular in girls' marriage?"

Old man Liu smiled and said: "Yes, it's the same as today's popular bicycle sewing machine watches. We will make a bed dowry for the girl's family as long as we live at home. Wealthy people will work **** materials and crafts. Are you not? I think it’s strange that my wife’s dowry does not have a canopy bed? When I returned to the northeast, I slept on the hot kang according to local conditions, and the bed was unmaintained. Now my grandson is married, let alone the canopy bed, just use the kang with a few broken boxes on it. ."

Old man Liu also said in a grateful way: "You don’t know that young people nowadays pay attention to simplicity and convenience. Getting married is like a child’s play. We have three matches and six hires. We are indispensable for everything. Maybe we just become concubines. Who wants?"

His words made everyone laugh. Zhou Xiaozheng smiled slightly, this old man was really funny. As long as he loves tossing hard, it will be poorly maintained.

Lin Lishan asked curiously: "Master, I think you have prepared the living room, but there are long pipes and tobacco leaves on the kang in the room to the right of the small courtyard. Isn't that room ready for guests?"

"It's really for hospitality. No way. When you come here, you must have a kang to entertain the locals. When you come to go to the kang, you eat the kang, you don't let it go to the kang, you think you don't value the other party. That long pipe It’s also a custom to sit on the kang and chattering. They don’t like the living room, so I vacate that room for the guests. That is to say, when you come, I invite you to sit here. If the fellows come, go to the front Talking on the Kang, you let them sit here, they are uncomfortable."

Lin Lishan nodded, and agreed: "The room is well prepared, so you have to go to the countryside and do what you like."

Hearing this, Mr. Liu nodded, "Just keep that room. Some fellow villagers like to smoke dry cigarettes on the kang to make homework. If these people go directly there, they won't break into the master bedroom. Nobody here does not enter. The habit of the master bedroom is very bad. When I set up the room, I deliberately set up the study room outside to prevent the crowds."

Lin Lishan smiled and said to him: "Your master bedroom is the same as our Jiaojiao's room. Xiao Wu also deliberately opened up the two rooms, made a small living room outside, covered with a small Kang, just to prevent villagers from entering his bedroom. . It’s better privacy."

Mrs. Liu brought a woman and a little girl into the house, and said with a smile: "Seeing that you have such a good chat, but when it comes to fun? This is Liu Xiaoya and her mother. I'm on the road with them. That's it. They are very familiar there. If Shanshan still doesn't understand, ask her. This girl often helps me with the supplies, and she is familiar with it at home."

Lin Lishan hurriedly stood up and thanked the old lady, "Mother, you are so kind, I'm worried about being unfamiliar with life. Then let's go back and clean up, and wait until we are busy before going to the house."

Old man Liu led the old lady to take everyone outside ~www.wuxiaspot.com~ Seeing Lin Lishan cleared the back seat, Liu Xiaoya and her mother and daughter sat in, and the car drove away before returning to the room.

Zhou Xiao was driving the car and saw that Liu Xiaoya and Niang were somewhat restrained, and comforted: "Don't be nervous. Xiaoya? Tell your uncle, where is this wooden bed easy to buy? Don't go find someone for firewood. Order?"

Liu Xiaoya looked forward and replied: "Uncle, wooden beds can be bought in the wood factory in the city, where you can find everything. You give the money, and they will send it. Someone will ask you if you want to get the firewood. You can buy it from him when you see it. You can also tell them to send it in a few days.

"Okay, thank you little girl, you will go to the yard with your mother and your aunt to see how to clean up. Shanshan, I will go to the door to unload things and buy the bed and briquettes. You and them will watch and clean up. , I can’t finish today and tomorrow, I’m not in a hurry. Do you remember to ask Xiaoya to teach you how to use the wall of fire, and see what else inside?"

Lin Lishan patted Liu Xiaoya's hand, "It's okay, don't be nervous. Brother Zheng, don't worry about going to work, Zhao, do you still have to go to the unit after get off work?"

"There is no need to go to the work unit. I still accompany Brother Zheng to the wood factory to see the bed, and then ask someone to help pull the coal, this car can't fit. Brother Zheng, or you drive to the Women's Federation, I will let Hongli accompany his sister-in-law, they women Too much, it’s quick to pack it up."

Zhou Xiaozheng checked the time and it was really late, "Okay, then you show the way and pick up your daughter-in-law first. Don't cook at night, and go out to eat. Shanshan, you just got the curtain cloths to Hongli Let her help."

Following Zhao Dashan's guidance, the car quickly drove to the Women's Federation, which is the county public/security/bureau. Now the Women's Federation and the public/security/bureau are concentrated. Zhao Dashan didn't let him buy the car, so he went upstairs and called someone. After a while, he and Cheng Hongli got down.
