Lifted the guard, Zhou Xiaoan actually talked a lot in front of familiar people, Uncle is now not only brought into the elder mode by her, but also a comrade-in-arms and ally with the same worldview as her, as soon as he was happy, he forgot that he was afraid of others just now, and he didn't dare to talk.

Zhou Yuehai silently listened to her trivial nonsense, occasionally with a "hmm", but he was a little worried in his heart, how could this child face a lot of gossip after divorce?

When he looked at her more just now, she might have shrunk in fright and didn't dare to say any more.

Zhou Xiao'an talked for a while, a little nervous, she was about to explain to her uncle, but she was still not 100% sure.

But you still have to muster up the courage to explain.

"Uncle," she looked back and forth, left and right, before beckoning Zhou Yuehai to bow her head, and lowered her voice to tell him the truth, "The woman just now is a widow of Ma, who used to be optimistic about Han Dazhuang, and they are ready to get engaged, and now the two of them are still thinking about each other......"

"We'll talk about that later." Zhou Yuehai suddenly straightened up, his eyes stared straight ahead, although he was still expressionless, Zhou Xiaoan could feel that his body was indifferent for a moment.

Zhou Xiaoan followed his gaze and looked over, didn't see anything? In the village, the men all went to repair the terraces, and the women went to the production team to spin threads, and people rarely saw one.

She looked at the uncle, then in that direction, and looked back and forth several times, and finally saw the second uncle and a group of children coming from afar.

Zhou Xiaoan smacked his tongue in his heart, the reconnaissance hero is really powerful! It seems that she chose to tell the truth to her uncle is still very wise, or she will have to show her the bottom at a glance with her little bit of Taoism!

The second uncle strode over excitedly, and saw Zhou Yuehai clearly but was a little afraid to admit it, "Erhai? Is it Nikai? ”

Before Zhou Yuehai joined the army, he was called Erhai, and he was renamed by the instructor who taught cultural classes in the army.

"Second uncle." Zhou Yuehai stood up straight, with no superfluous expression on his face as always, and he didn't look as excited as his second uncle.

"Hey! It's two seas! Sixteen or seven years! The second uncle didn't dare to admit it! Grow so tall! Become a big cadre! ”

The second uncle came over and wanted to shake hands with Zhou Yuehai, seeing that his face did not move at all, the hand that stretched out retracted, and Zhou Yuehai reached over to shake him again, he quickly stretched out again, and the two of them went back and forth for a long time, and finally shook hands.

"Go home! Walk! Let's go home! The second uncle hurriedly lifted the big iron pot with Zhou Yuehai and went home!

When I got home, the second uncle and mother-in-law were also notified that there were guests at home, and they came back early to boil the water and wait.

Seeing the cauldron brought by Zhou Yuehai, she was very shocked, how could anyone send a cauldron from her relatives?

The second uncle understood very well, "Erhai, there are many places outside that don't eat big pot rice, right?" At most, we will eat until spring ploughing and land preparation, and the canteen has no food, so we can't do it, and when the time comes, each family will cook by itself, and this pot will become a big problem! Your pot was delivered in time! ”

The wife pulled Zhou Yuehai to look left and right, and nodded with a smile, "Erhai is so big!" Good looking! It looks so good! Saying that, he turned his head to look at the second uncle, "Er Hai is not like his uncle?" Our Zhou family is not such a big man! ”

The Zhou family, whether male or female, is of medium height, with white skin, double eyelids and big eyes, but Zhou Yuehai is a big man of more than 1.80 meters, his whole body is tough and heroic, and his eyes are also double.

The second uncle explained loudly in his wife's ear, "Mother, it's not like his uncle, it's like his uncle!" His grandmother's side is a big man, and she looks smart! ”

Everyone said a few words, and Zhou Yuehai began to dig out things from the big bag he was carrying. In addition to the two catties of chicken cakes and two boxes of malt milk essence for the wife, it is a catty of fruit candy for the children, and the rest is sixty or seventy catties of sorghum rice noodles!

It can be seen from the gifts he brought that this person is really super pragmatic.

Now that food is so scarce, it is certainly not through legitimate channels to get so much high-grain, rice, and noodles at once, and it must be much more difficult to buy some normal gifts.

And he is not an unsophisticated person, otherwise he would not have thought of bringing soft chicken cakes and malt milk essence to his wife, and even the sugar cubes of children would not have fallen.

Therefore, he must have thought that now that the food shortage in the countryside has reached this point, the commune's grain search team is rampant, and whoever has a handful of grain has to hide it, and it is impossible for him to win a good reputation in his hometown for returning to his hometown to repay his relatives.

He shouldn't care about this, he's just pragmatic and picks what he needs most.

For example, buying a few meters of flower cloth is definitely less labor-saving and cost-effective than a large iron pot, and it can make everyone say that he is good, but he still brought the big pot without bothering.

"Uncle, it's blowing all the way outside, you go wash your hands and drink some hot water!" Zhou Xiaoan knew that if it weren't for her, Zhou Yuehai would not have been able to return to his hometown this year, and he wouldn't have to bother to bring these things.

In the final analysis, she still has to accept the love of her uncle. So she secretly put an extra handful of sugar in the water bowl for Zhou Yuehai.

When his time comes, he should have taken the car from Peizhou in the middle of the night last night, tossed all night, all the way to the dust, and definitely need to take a good rest to replenish his strength.

Zhou Yuehai's face did not show a trace of fatigue, so he went to wash up unceremoniously, and drank another bowl of thick sugar water that Zhou Xiaoan made for him.

He frowned slightly when he took the first sip in his mouth, and then drank the whole bowl of water casually.

Zhou Xiaoan stuck out his tongue in his heart, as if, maybe, it should be too much sugar to suffocate the uncle......

Zhou Yuehai cleared his throat a few times after drinking the water, and the wife became anxious when she saw it, "Erhai, is it frozen?" Hurry up and burn on the kang! ”

Zhou Xiaoan despised himself while pouring a bowl of real boiled water and hurriedly sent it over. After drinking two bowls of boiled water, Zhou Yuehai's throat finally returned to normal.

Fortunately, sugar is expensive now, otherwise she would definitely be misunderstood that she was playing a prank......

Seeing that it was going to be noon, the second uncle got up and went to the cafeteria to give Zhou Yuehai Zhang Luo lunch. Although the news of the dissolution of the canteen has been confirmed, everyone still has to eat in the canteen, and the guests who come are all brought to the canteen to pay food and eat, and no one dares to entertain them privately at home.

Otherwise, the commune's food search team would have come to the house to rummage through it. In the era when all food belongs to the collective, it is a great sin to keep food privately.

The second uncle has a wide range of people in the commune, so he will not come to his house to turn it over, but Zhou Yuehai is a revolutionary soldier, and he does not dare to make trouble for him, in case it is reflected in the army, it will be a mistake of principle.

Zhou Yuehai took the initiative to take out three taels of food stamps and two cents, and asked the second uncle to take the bus to the big canteen to calculate his food expenses.

This is the uniform standard for public officials to eat in rural canteens.

Zhou Xiaoan also took Zhou Xiaoquan out of the house and went straight to the brigade supply and marketing cooperative.

The supply and marketing cooperatives were empty and deserted, except for soy sauce and salt, everything else was basically out of stock, only a dozen bottles of canned food were placed, and a layer of dust fell on the most conspicuous shelves.

The rural supply and marketing cooperatives cost three cents and five cents for a bottle of the most common assorted canned food, and they do not charge non-staple food tickets, which is a very sought-after thing in the eyes of people in the city, and the goods are sold out. However, the supply and marketing cooperatives in remote rural areas cannot sell a bottle a year, and all of them are backlogged to receive ash.

Three cents and five cents, that's the money to sell ten catties of corn!

The sister and brother came very coincidentally, the supply and marketing cooperatives had just entered a plastic barrel of bulk liquor, and Zhou Xiaoan hurriedly bought two glass bottles for two cents, filled two catties of bulk liquor, and spent six cents and two catties of food stamps.

Wine is made from grain, and of course food stamps are required.

The sister and brother happily went back with four bottles of canned food and two bottles of liquor.

When I got home, the second uncle and mother-in-law had already boiled the cornmeal porridge and heated the white steamed buns, and I was very embarrassed to see the things in the hands of the sisters and brothers, these two children were too sensible, this should have been them to entertain Zhou Yuehai, but because they didn't have the ability, they let the two children do it.

Things were placed on the table, and Zhou Xiaoan and Zhou Xiaoquan hurriedly prepared to dodge. The rules of the hometown, this kind of occasion for elders to drink and accompany guests, women and children are not qualified to serve at the table.

The second uncle only politely gave in because the two of them were serving the meals on this table, and they were guests, and when he saw that they were sensible, he was not ready to let them go again.

Zhou Yuehai opened his mouth to keep them, "Today's meal is for the two of you to honor your elders, there are no outsiders, let's eat it on the table." ”

Then let the second uncle. The wife was the highest, and she had already sat down on the table with a smile on her face, with a bowl of soft noodles in front of her.

The last family went to the table for the first time to accompany the guests.
