Chapter Seventy-Two: The Talk

At night, the first snow fell in northern Shaanxi, the cold wind was howling outside, but it was quite warm inside the cave, everyone climbed on the kang and wrapped themselves in quilts to hold a meeting.

"This kang looks at the soil, I didn't expect it to be so practical, the wisdom of the working people is really amazing!" Zheng Tong said happily as he touched the warm soil kang.

Zhang Guangzhi also said: "This is really a good thing, I not only cooked, but also warmed the bed." It's like we use a coal stove in Beijing in winter, not to mention that it is not very useful, and it often turns off the fire in the middle of the night. ”

"This is a fire out in the middle of the night, and I will be in tears when I say it. Guo Jie was deeply touched: "When my brother was born, as soon as the stove went out at night, my mother kicked me up to make a fire, I still remember it clearly, it was so fucking cold at night in winter, my hands and feet were shivering, pouting my ass to make a fire, and sometimes I couldn't give birth for an hour!"

"Guo Jie, you're too miserable! If anyone dares to let me get up in winter, I have to fight with him. Zhao Dayong shrunk his neck in the quilt and said sympathetically.

"My grandson just wants to get up in winter, isn't there no way. My dad went to support the third line, and my mother was home alone, who would do it if I didn't make a fire?" Guo Jie said helplessly.

"My family relies on a stove in winter, why don't we build a kang in every household in Beijing?" asked Qian Zhimin.

Zheng Tong retorted: "You are stupid to be a common man! If you really could get it, you would have done it a long time ago." Let's not mention that many people live in a tube building and can't repair it, the key is that you repair the kang, what do you burn?"

"Burn the wood!" Qian Zhimin said as a matter of course.

"There are so many people in Beijing, and if you cut down all the trees in the park, it's not enough to burn them in one winter. I said that the trees in the Summer Palace can you see it?" Zheng Tong sneered.

Cao Gang hesitated: "Burning coal?"

"I'm afraid the little salary your family earns is not enough to buy coal, right?"

……

"Hey, Yuemin, why don't you speak? Who makes a stove in your family in winter?" Zhao Dayong suddenly asked.

"Raw stove? Maybe the kang was too warm, Zhong Yuemin was a little sleepy, and asked with a dazzle.

Zhao Dayong said in disbelief: "Nonsense, if you don't make a stove, what do you rely on for heating and cooking?"

"Zhong Yuemin's house has heating, and he either goes to the canteen or goes to the restaurant to make a fart fire. Zheng Tong interjected, "I'm afraid that he will puncture the pot when he cooks first!"

", Zhong Yuemin lives in a courtyard, which is different from those of us who live in a large courtyard. Cao Gang said enviously.

Qian Zhimin looked at Zheng Tong and grinned, and asked, "Zheng Tong, your house also has heating, right?"

"I don't have heating where I live, just like you. ”

Zhong Yuemin said disdainfully: "Zheng Tong, you will sow discord, I just got along with everyone, and you will tear down the stage for me." Why don't you tell everyone that you only moved out of the three-bedroom house two years ago, and you spent the winter in my house for the winter?"

Zheng Tong quibbled: "Although I have concealed some of the facts, what I said is the truth, the house I live in now is indeed unheated." ”

"Fuck off!"

Zhong Yuemin and Zheng Tong were arguing here, and the other people were not interested in talking.

After a while, Qian Zhimin lay there and sighed: "You have to throw away the goods, and you have to die more than the people." We thought we were all the same, but we didn't expect Zhong Yuemin and Zheng Tong to fall into trouble, so they got together with us. ”

"Why didn't you two go to the army, what are you messing with here?" Guo Jie couldn't help but ask.

"What kind of soldier am I doing with my small body?" Zheng Tong laughed at himself.

Everyone couldn't help but laugh at his funny expression.

Guo Jie asked, "Then what do you want to do?"

"I wanted to go to school hard, but I couldn't study, and I didn't want to work, so I had to come to join the queue. What about you?"

"Our people's children can only come to cut the line, it doesn't matter who makes you a soldier!" Guo Jie said. "Zhong Yuemin, you should be able to become a soldier, right?"

Zhong Yuemin said: "If I can be a soldier, I definitely won't come to cut in line, who the has a hole in his brain to come here to endure hardship." I'm a teachable kid now, and I still need the help of my classmates. ”

"Hahaha......"

"I'm sure I'll help you!" Zhao Dayong replied with a smile.

"Yuemin, you said that I went to my heart, and I regretted it on the way here, such a big distance, it is a train, a car, and a donkey cart. When I entered the village, I observed, and there was no jacket on his body that was not torn, and the village party secretary was a little better, but when I turned around, my pants and buttocks were beaten with two patches, and the color was not the same. Zhang Guangzhi couldn't help but turn over and complain.

This can arouse everyone's enthusiasm for complaints.

Cao Gang said: "Du Laohan's grandson Hanwa is also barefoot, and I feel cold when I see it. ”

"And when I entered the village, there was a man who kept looking at me stupidly, which made my heart go straight to the hair. ”

"It's all bare, not a single green tree. ”

······

When the male intellectuals were chatting happily, the female intellectuals next door were not idle.

"How can Sister Chunhua give birth to so many children, and get married at the same age as us, it's too scary to hear!" Wang Hong couldn't sleep while lying on the kang.

Li Ping said: "Sister Chunhua is quite good, and she helped us, but she always persuaded us to marry someone or something······"

"I heard that the girls here are all getting married so early, if we settle here, we won't have to get married and have children so early. Wang Hong asked with some horror.

Jiang Biyun's thinking is more mature: "No, the customs here are customs, and it doesn't matter if we live ours." ”

"That's for the best, if I want to become like the village aunt, I'll go crazy. Wang Hong breathed a sigh of relief.

Li Ping thought more: "We won't have to stay in the countryside forever, right?"

"I don't know, but compared to the city, it doesn't seem to be that bad here, at least there aren't so many ill-intentioned people. Jiang Biyun said softly.

"I don't care, if Zhong Yuemin is in the countryside, even if they stay in the countryside forever, I am willing. Wang Hong said with a big grin.

Jiang Biyun was stunned, "You little girl can't be moved by mortal hearts, who do you fall in love with?"

"Hee-hee-hee... I won't tell you!" Wang Hong knew that she was speechless, and covered her mouth with the quilt.

Li Ping said: "It must be Zhong Yuemin, I see that you have been staring at Zhong Yuemin all the way, so you almost didn't get up!"

Wang Hong hurriedly went over and covered Li Ping's mouth to prevent her from saying more.

Jiang Biyun understood, "If you like it, just say it, what's embarrassing." ”

"I... I don't know, I just want to look at him, no matter what he's doing, I can't help but follow him!" Wang Hong finally couldn't hold back and told the secret in his heart.

"Then what do you like about Zhong Yuemin?" Jiang Biyun asked as she lay on the kang and looked at the dark roof.

"Handsome!"

"Uh... What else?"

"Brave and upright, it's so good to fight hooligans on the train!

"Why don't I feel so secure..."

Wang Hong didn't hear clearly, "Ah, Biyun, what are you talking about?"

"Nothing. Looks like you're really trapped. ”

"I do!"
