Yingfang took advantage of her mother's inattention, came to the West House, secretly lifted the basket to take a look, and found that Xiao Jin was not there, so she was relieved.

Back in the dining room, concentrate on making the pillowcase.

Jiang Xinrou thought about laying cotton seams horizontally and vertically, so she simply picked out all the colorful rag heads, and planned to turn a few more seat cushions.

It's cold, the bamboo chair is cold to sit on, and it's much warmer to spread out a chair cushion.

The two of them worked together, one picked the cloth head, and the other was responsible for the car. After the car is formed into a piece, one is spread with cotton wool, one is sewn on both sides, and then a few stripes of patterns are rolled in the middle, and the cotton wool of the province runs around.

A busy day is an afternoon.

When the sky darkened, the two of them looked at the time, yo, it was almost five o'clock at four o'clock.

"Did Xiao Xiang say that he would come back late? If not, I have to hurry up and wash rice and cook. Jiang Xinrou quickly stood up.

"I didn't say it, but I would go to the vegetable patch first, and I would look at the traps to see if there was anything good. ”

During this time, the cautious division commander was transferred to the road repair group, and basically started work on time and finished work at the end of the day, and arrived home quite early, so he took a day to reinforce the half-abandoned trap in the back mountain. These days, taking advantage of the good weather, I will go up the mountain every day to take a look.

Ying Fang said and gathered the things at hand, stood up and said, "Let's just eat later." I put away my clothes and went to do the laundry. ”

"You go and make a fire, I'll wash the rice and vegetables." Jiang Xinrou quickly reaped the fruits of the afternoon, dusted off her apron, scooped two spoonfuls of rice, hugged the dishes she was going to make for dinner, and went to the water room to wash rice and vegetables.

After the temperature drops, making a fire has become a pleasant activity - just sit in front of the stove, light the firewood and stuff it into the stove, then take a fire stick to loosen it, and when the fire is lit, add or remove a few dead branches from time to time.

In order to take care of her, Jiang Xinrou also replaced the low bench in front of the stove with a small chair covered with soft cushions, which was much more comfortable to sit on than before.

The fire was lit and the water in the pot began to bubble hot.

When Jiang Xinrou came back from scooping up the rice and washing the vegetables, she first put the rice in the pot, connected the foam on the surface, scooped off the excess water, and covered the pot to simmer the rice. Start stir-frying in hot oil in another pan.

Yingfang sat on the chair, looking at the fire in the stove, and the two of them chatted and knocked each other.

Wu Guihua also came.

Holding a fish in his hand, he said that it was sent by his mother's brother, and he had to give half of it to Yingfang. said that it was thanks to her for often stuffing small snacks into her bear children.

Yingfang couldn't resist her, so she had to accept it.

It stands to reason that Xiang Ganggang was promoted to the deputy regiment and was going to move to the east unit to live. Helplessly, the division commander didn't seem to realize this, Rao is Chen Tuan secretly reminded him, and he still didn't know when he opened his eyes and closed his eyes.

Xiang Gang simply persuaded Chen Tuan not to mention it, but the division commander treated him coldly, and was afraid that he would be reluctant to send documents to transfer him to a house.

Anyway, there is nothing wrong with him and the second battalion commander in this building now with their families, helping each other and sharing the materials at hand with each other.

"Speaking of supplies, if you have tickets in hand, you can stock them up as soon as possible. This year's harvest is poor, and some rural areas are unable to pay grain, and the grain stamps issued may not necessarily be able to get grain, let alone others. I heard from the accountant in the factory that one of her relatives works in the supply and marketing cooperative, and there is already this statement internally, and we ordinary people have not received the signal yet. I went back to my parents' house after work today, and persuaded them to redeem everything they could, and this fish was redeemed by my brother, so I was afraid that the tickets and coupons would be left in the end and depreciated to be worthless. It's better to eat it in your stomach as soon as possible, at least you can taste it fresh and replenish some nutrients......"

After Wu Guihua's words, Yingfang and her mother also suddenly thought that it is no wonder that there are so many customers coming in and out of the supply and marketing cooperatives that are not festivals today, and they dare to have this stubble factor in it.

Thinking about what I heard a while ago, several villages in the south were making trouble because of the delivery of grain and the call for cotton, but it would not affect the supply of grain and cotton in the cities.

"Thank you sister-in-law for reminding me, these are what I bought when my mother and I went out for a walk at noon today, the twist flowers are very crisp, the oranges are very sweet, take them to Xiaobin to eat. Yingfang went back to the house and brought a handful of twist flowers, and a large mandarin, and stuffed it into Wu Guihua.

Wu Guihua was embarrassed to accept it at the beginning of the period, half a fish was a thank you gift, and then what was the gift to take back.

"If my sister-in-law doesn't accept it, then I won't accept this fish either. Ying Fang pretended to be angry and said with a tiger face.

Wu Guihua couldn't cry or laughed: "Okay, okay, I'll take it, I'll take it, right?" So I'm most afraid of dealing with intellectuals, look, and offend people politely, it's really embarrassing......

"Hahaha!"

While laughing, Xiang Gang came back, carrying a basket of vegetables on his shoulder, sweet potato leaves and radish leaves were full of outside the basket, and it was very heavy to look at.

Ying Fang immediately grabbed two handfuls of vegetables and handed them to Wu Guihua: "Isn't my sister-in-law going to cook?" Roast two sweet potatoes for Xiaobin. ”

After Wu Guihua politely left, she asked Xiang Gang: "Sister-in-law divided half of our fish, how do you want to eat it?"

"I don't pick, we can eat as much as you like. Xiang Gang said, unloading the bamboo basket.

He went out in the morning to store the old bamboo basket at the gate, and when he came back from work, he went upstairs, took it and went to the foot of the mountain.

The trap was not harvested a few days ago, and today I didn't have much hope of going, but I didn't expect to pick up a lame pheasant.

The pheasant Xu tossed in the trap for a long time, and when it fell into his hands, he was almost dying and rolling his eyes. There was no resistance when he was transferred to the basket, and when he was done, he lay down at the bottom of the basket very obediently and pecked two mouthfuls of tender cabbage leaves.

Therefore, when Yingfang saw him catch a pheasant from the bottom of the basket, she was overjoyed: "Did you really catch a pheasant? I also told my mother, I don't know if the repaired trap will be useful." ”

Xiang Gang smiled and wiped his sweat: "I didn't expect it either, but the claws are lame and I can't raise them, so let's stew." ”

"Stew, stew, stew!Chicken stew mushroom!" Ying Fang clapped excitedly.

So, that night, Xiang Gang's house wafted out the aroma of chicken that aroused people's appetite.

Of course, it's better to be alone than to be happy. After the pheasant was stewed, a bowl was given to each of the befriended people.

Wu Guihua's family also sent it, and the second battalion commander's family gnawed on the chicken and chewed the fragrant mushrooms with relish, and after finishing the fragrant roasted sweet potatoes for each person, they ate comfortably, and couldn't help but sigh: "It's still a full life for the deputy regiment!"

"That's how people will live!" Wu Guihua glanced at her husband, "I also finished work and went home, and you saw people going up the mountain and down to the ground, and when you came back, you lay down on the bed, flipping through the newspaper and ignoring everything." I'll have to come back and make dinner. ”

Zhang Tao was so blushing that he was read it, and he argued with his neck: "I was training for a day, and I was so tired that I was about to lie down, which is like Xiang Xiang, supervising the road repair team with his hands behind his back, like herding sheep, I can also go up and down the mountain with energy." ”

"Come on!" Wu Guihua squinted at him and laughed at him, "Just like your bear, you can do the work of training soldiers, and even if it is your turn, you will be messed up." ”

"That's over, Wu Guihua!" Zhang Tao glared angrily, "It's as if your man is so useless." ”

"Don't quarrel with the two of you, I'll eat all the chicken if you quarrel again!" Zhang Bin, who was a big ghost, puffed out his cheeks and hummed.

The two of them looked at each other, okay, this kid took advantage of the two of them not paying attention, and picked almost all the chicken in the bowl.

Zhang Tao angrily knocked his son's head with chopsticks: "Stinky boy!

"Regardless of your father, you will give you whatever you like, if you are tall and strong, you can also rise faster as a soldier in the future, just like the deputy head of the regiment next door, just that appearance and size, it will surpass your father by 108,000 miles, even if I am the leader, I also like to promote this type." Wu Guihua and the man are in disagreement.

"Piercing the heart of the osmanthus ......"

Zhang Tao is the shortest among several battalion-level cadres, and his son is like his daughter-in-law in this regard. But even if it is a fact, it is inevitable to hurt a man's self-esteem if he says it too clearly.

lost a "I'll clean you up at night" look to his daughter-in-law, and grabbed the last few pieces of pheasant with his son. After eating and drinking, it was rare that he did not collapse on the bed and read the newspaper, but played a war game with his son with high interest, tossed the bear child almost to the point, and went to bed.

After a while, there was a rhythmic breathing sound of his son, Zhang Tao laughed secretly, hugged his daughter-in-law who was still cleaning up the house, and hummed through gritted teeth: "Do you think Lao Tzu is short?

Wu Guihua was angry and funny, punched him, and scolded "virtue", but she didn't object.

This time I was working the night shift for several days in a row, and I was busy with housework during the day to catch up on sleep, and I woke up and rushed to work, and I really didn't get moisturized for a while. So obediently pressed to the bed by the man and turned over and over like a pancake to enhance the relationship between husband and wife......

At the same time, Yingfang's family was also full of food and drink.

A few smaller ones also arrived home after their meal.

In addition to the old Jin and the two, they rubbed another bowl of chicken feet soup according to the fragrance. Only the soup has no chicken feet, and I still drink it and snort and be satisfied.

The golden retriever was full in the mountains, and he also took back a handful of hawthorn, jumped in front of Yingfang, and danced to exchange this for jam and rice paste.

Since drinking the jam-soaked rice cereal once, the golden retriever has completely changed from a little fan of malt milk essence to a little fan of jam, and I can't wait for Yingfang to boil jam for it to drink every day. The hawthorn picked today, it thinks it is big and red, and it must be delicious when boiled into jam.

Seeing this, Jiang Xinrou hurriedly stopped: "Good girl, you can't eat this, it's easy to have a miscarriage if you eat hawthorn with your body." ”

Yingfang nodded: "I know Mom, but hawthorn is also a medicine, keep it for drying, and it can be used in many prescriptions." ”

"You just have to count. Jiang Xinrou no longer stopped the golden retriever from offering courtesy, "Mom should go, you two should go to bed early." ”

"Mom, I'll send you. Xiang Gang followed downstairs, pushed the bicycle, and sent his mother-in-law back to her residence.

The old Jin and the two men were full of food and drink, and followed behind leisurely.

But the golden retriever stayed. Because it hasn't drunk the jam and rice paste that I have been dreaming of.

I saw that the hostess hawthorn had taken it, but what about the rice cereal that it wanted to drink? jam brand rice cereal!!

"Squeak!"

The golden retriever, who was so anxious to scratch his head and ears, twisted his buttocks, turned around and brought a few wild fruits, including jujubes and autumn pears.

Yingfang washed her face, mixed some hot water and was about to soak her feet, when the golden retriever jumped up to her, not wanting the wild fruits in her hand to fall into the footbasin one by one.

Ying Fang couldn't cry or laugh, and asked while scooping up the fruit: "What do you want to do, Golden Retriever?"

"Squeak!" Lao Tzu doesn't want to do anything, Lao Tzu just wants to drink jam and rice paste!

"Huh, what is this?"

Yingfang picked up the fruit and found that there were still two green leaves floating in the water basin, which seemed to be Poria leaves!

Suddenly, he couldn't care about washing his feet, so he ran to the back room with his cotton shoes, took the book of herbs at the bottom of the box, turned to the page of Poria cocos, and carefully checked it according to the pattern on it.

"It's really Poria leaves. Yingfang closed the book excitedly, turned around and asked the golden retriever, "Golden retriever, where did you pick this leaf?

The golden retriever was still sulking at not being able to drink the jam brand rice cereal, and when he saw Yingfang asking it, he snorted, turned his back, and pouted his buttocks.

Ying Fang couldn't cry or laugh when she saw this: "What's the matter? Who bullied you? Little Orange King Jin?"

The golden retriever snorted unconvinced: It's you, you're you!!

"Isn't it? Is it because you haven't eaten enough? You're still hungry?

As soon as he heard the rice paste, the golden retriever was so greedy that he snorted, twisted it against his paws, and waited for Yingfang to give it a drink.

Yingfang didn't feel funny, and dared to love the little guy and wanted to drink rice cereal.

Golden Retriever pointed to the jam jar on the chest of drawers.

Yingfang suddenly realized that she dared to love the little guy and wanted to add jam.

Okay, anyway, most of these jams are the work of the Golden Retriever. Since you like it, soak it and drink it.

By the way, I also mixed myself a cup of jam tea.

Xiang just came back from sending his mother-in-law, and saw his daughter-in-law soaking her feet while holding a steaming juice and drinking happily.

The two sat facing each other, their feet stretched out into the same basin, overlapping up and down, one white and one black, distinct.

"The golden retriever has made a great contribution today. Ying Fang gave the remaining half cup of tea to the man, took the two leaves and said excitedly, "This is Poria leaves, which means that there are Poria cocos on Xia Mountain, do you know Poria cocos? Uncle's illness, in the final analysis, is still a heart disease, usually use Poria cocos to cook porridge, stew, make hibiscus cake, hibiscus cake for him to eat, keep it to nourish his heart and calm his nerves. It is also very convenient to store, just pile it in a cool, dry place like sweet potatoes. ”

Xiang Gang took the leaf and played with it for a while, remembered the texture of the leaf, and said, "Since it is so easy to use, let the golden retriever take me up the mountain to dig this Sunday." Go back and send some to the old professor. ”

"It should. Yingfang naturally agreed.

The black leather case could be opened thanks to the old professor's key.

Although he repeatedly said that it was useless, and it didn't matter if he lost it, it was his thing after all. Now that he has lost himself, he always wants to compensate him with something else.

"When the old professor is in better health, teach him Xiaoyaoquan, let's not think about immortality, but if we keep practicing, we can still prolong life. ”

"Hmm. Xiang Gang touched her head, with a smile in his eyes, "When you are out of confinement, you also practice, and we will practice as a family." ”

"Good. Yingfang grinned.
