Ginkgo's grandfather was an outsider, and the site for building the house was very remote at that time, located in the west of the entire village.

When Grandpa Li returned home, the family's house was dilapidated and leaking on all sides, and it was even heavy rain outside the house and light rain inside the house on rainy days.

He decisively demolished the old house and rebuilt the earthen house. When building a house, the soil is first put into the model, and then the soil is rammed little by little with tools.

There are two rooms on the left and right sides of the gate, and there is a courtyard in the inside, and there are four rooms in a row in front of the courtyard, a kitchen, a hall, and two bedrooms. The yard is flanked by chicken coops and pigsties. The windows of the house are very small, there is no glass, and the windows are sealed with film, and the lighting is not good. Electricity has not yet become popular, and kerosene lamps are used for lighting at night, and there is usually only one lamp in a family, and everyone sits around kerosene lamps during dinner.

Most of the houses in the village are like this, the courtyard wall of the house is not high, and the closure is not good.

The left neighbor of the Li family is Cui Hong, and the right house is Zhang Daniu's family.

Cui Hong is the last family in the whole village, and the other side of her house is the rice field in the village, which is used to dry and roll the rice when it is busy. The village meeting was also chosen here, the place is large, and there are many people.

There is a ginkgo tree on the edge of the rice field, which is an old playground for children. There is a well not far from the ginkgo tree, which feeds the people of a village in Zhangjiawan, and there is a river next to it, and now there is no washing machine, and the laundry is in the river.

Another neighbor, Zhang Daniu, is the cousin of the village chief, and his house is the same as that of the Ginkgo family, but there are only three people in the Ginkgo family, and Zhang Daniu has two sons, Zhang Xiaozhu, Zhang Xiaolin, five grandsons, and three granddaughters. A large family is crowded together, and a scolding farce is staged almost every day, and it is not good to be fully martial.

Ginkgo especially admired the old lady Zhang next door, it was an eye-opener for her, she could scold people for two hours in a row, and after scolding her daughter-in-law and granddaughter, she didn't have any breath in between. It's also a skill.

The Zhang family has a lot of labor, but there are also many children, and they can usually hear crying mixed with the old lady's angry scolding when they eat.

Zhang Daniu's eldest daughter-in-law, Shen Daya, and second daughter-in-law, Feng Xiaocui, are not fuel-efficient lamps, lazy, gluttonous and dirty. The two of them looked down on Tian Shuang, thinking that Tian Shuang was a hen that didn't lay eggs, and what made them even more angry was that Li Dali was very good to Tian Shuang.

Because of Grandpa Li's identity in the Red Army, they only dared to live in private, walking straight in front of Tian Shuang, looking angry and funny.

The favorite thing for these two wonderful daughters-in-law to do is to sit under the ginkgo tree in the west of the village with the other two long-tongued women in the village, Chen Lai's younger brother Wei Xiaomei, gossiping.

Ginkgo privately calls them the back gang, chewing the root of the tongue behind their backs every day, and whoever is doing well will see who is not pleasing to the eye.

At the beginning, Ginkgo was still very interested in listening to these people talk about Silas, but after a long time, she was too lazy to inquire, it was all all kinds of sour words, and there was no nutrition at all.

Besides, lately she's been busy planning her future life.

After the resumption of the college entrance examination more than ten years later, she has to calculate her age to go to school and strive to become the first generation of college students after the resumption of the college entrance examination. Li's father treats her very well, and Li's mother has always been envious of Cui Hong's literacy, and will definitely agree to let her go to school.

After the reform and opening up, it was allowed to do business, and many people went to the sea, at that time, as the first batch of people to eat crabs, most of them were issued, which is like now buying things with tickets to the supply and marketing cooperatives to buy, and it is not allowed to buy and sell privately.

Ginkgo biloba watched other people's business in its previous life. But she knew that it was just looking simple, and it was still difficult to do. She doesn't have the ability and courage, and she doesn't want to be a wealthy person, she just wants to earn a little money and buy a house in the city where she works, so that Li's father and mother and Grandma Cui can live for a long time.

After thinking about it for a few days, I didn't think of a good way.

Ginkgo was thinking about things, and she was listless at dinner.

Tian Shuangsheng was afraid that the girl would get sick, so he quickly touched her forehead, Li Dali was so panicked that he picked up Ginkgo and wanted to go to Cui Hong's house, Ginkgo struggled to go down, "Dad, I'm fine, I'm just thinking about it." ”

Li Dali was stunned, "What's on your mind with such a small baby? "He is very protective, in his heart his children are good, and the snot babies in the village love to bully Ginkgo biloba and make her as dirty as them.

Ginkgo snorted and laughed, her father is sometimes very funny, she believes in her unconditionally, and always believes that the girl is right, and it is someone else who is wrong, "Dad, no one bullied me, they all envy me for having new clothes to wear for the New Year." ”

Li Dali and Tian Shuang finally fed a baby pimple, that is to put Ginkgo biloba in their hearts, and when they went to the town, they pulled some cloth and wanted to make new clothes for Ginkgo to wear for the New Year.

In the village, the little girl of the village chief's family and Ginkgo can wear new clothes for the New Year, and the children in the village envy the two of them, especially the three little girls next door.

Ginkgo biloba is filled with a thirty-year-old soul, although this dress is a little more rustic, but the love of Li Dali and his wife is undeniable.

Tian Shuang pretended to have a straight face, "New clothes can only be worn during the New Year." ”

Li Dali also persuaded angrily, "Xing'er, now that it's dirty, it's not new for the New Year, let's wear it again on the New Year." ”

Ginkgo pretended to be sensible and nodded.

This is also a point that she doesn't understand, new clothes should be kept for the New Year. Some children wear a new dress for the New Year, and they are immediately put away by their parents after the New Year, and they can't get dirty in the name of it, and then wear it until the next year's New Year.

Ginkgo looked at Father Li, who was eating heavily, and suddenly thought that she could sell pancakes. I used to often see the pancake aunt earning tens of thousands of dollars a month, and she couldn't wait to leave her job to learn pancakes. The investment in the pancake stall is not big, and when the time comes, I will take my parents to school, find a place to sell pancakes, sell them for a few years, buy a house in Beijing and quit working, and then find a job after graduation.

Perfect, silently give yourself a thumbs up.

She had paid attention to the pancakes before, and she felt that it was not too difficult, and she described it a few more times, and Mother Li should be able to learn it, Mother Li's cooking skills came from Grandma Li's true heritage, and they were all leveraged in the village, but the structure of the stove was not known.

Unexpectedly, through Ginkgo's description of the pancakes, I found that Mother Li actually knew one of them. It turned out that when Grandpa Li was out fighting, he stayed in the cooking class, and there were leaders who loved to eat pancakes and deliberately learned it.

After the old man returned to Zhangjiawan, he taught Mother Li, at that time Grandpa Li was still there, there was a salary every month, the farm would issue some tickets, and life was relatively comfortable.

Later, Grandpa Li was gone, and Li's father and mother felt that the pancake was a waste of oil, and there was no white flour, so they didn't make it.

Ginkgo happily thought, this is really sleepy with a pillow.
