Chapter 41: You're Fat
When the three of them returned to the village, it was already dark, and the branches of the stumbling blocks of an ox cart, Old Man Zhang and Li Yanhong moved to the yard and piled them up next to the chicken coop, so that they could be taken when they burned in winter, and Erchun went home to cook first, and then used the pot in the West House to get warm water, and took the bran to the backyard to feed the pigs.
The pig at home is not big, Erchun thought that it was cold this day, and when it snowed, he would kill the pig, and such a small pig did not have to hand over the task pig, and it was enough for his family to eat for half a year, and the fat meat could also be used to rely on lard.
Carrying the swill bucket back to the house, Erchun saw that the water in the pot was boiling, took it out and put it in the large laundry basin, some for his grandfather to wash his face, and the rest for himself to wipe his body.
Now there is no polished rice in every family, they all eat coarse grains, when the second spring leaves in the morning, they soak the sorghum rice and millet seeds, and the rice they catch at night, make cabbage and stew potatoes, put the curtain, and then put the half-cooked rice cooked in the hot water on the curtain, cover the pot and steam, and the rice is cooked when the dish is ready.
Taking advantage of the gap of the fire, Erchun used the washbasin to get half a basin of water from the laundry basin, and then brought the laundry basin to the east room and put it on the north wall.
In her previous life, Erchun was a poor person in the village, and after she arrived in the city, she was forced by life to do it if she didn't know how to work, and she had to do the most work at the least time, and she could always arrange several jobs in a time without delaying these jobs.
When Erchun put the kang table and cleaned up the dishes and chopsticks, Li Yanhong also entered the house over there, Erchun glanced at it, and saw that his grandfather did not come in, and Li Yanhong on the side had already explained, "Your grandfather has returned the ox cart." ”
The ox is on the team, and the family watches it, so there is no need to borrow it, but the ox cart is on the team, and it must be returned.
Erchun hummed lightly, but when he saw that Li Yanhong was still staring at him, he was annoyed, Erchun turned his head and glared, "What are you looking at?" ”
"Nothing." Li Yanhong didn't think anything, "You girl can't see that she's fat." ”
Fat? How do you know?
It wasn't when they rolled down the mountain in the morning that they hugged each other.
Erchun's face slowly turned red, and he glared at Li Yanhong hatefully, and Li Yanhong also realized that he had said the wrong thing, "I don't mean anything else, it's better to be fat, healthy." ”
Li Yanhong really didn't mean anything else, on weekdays, she saw that the clothes this girl was wearing were fat and big, but when she was too thin to hold up her clothes, when she rolled down the mountain with someone in her arms, she realized that she had seen it wrong, and the flesh on her body couldn't be pinched.
There is a lot of meat on the body, but the face is not fat, and it looks a little delicate, this is what the old man said about stealing fat, right?
In fact, Li Yanhong also likes women to be fat, lying on the kang at night and hugging his daughter-in-law, who doesn't like to hug a fat person, it is also comfortable to hug, but her ex-wife has been shouting about what to lose weight, Li Yanhong remembers that he lost his temper when he heard it.
Back then, the Anti-Japanese War was so hard that I couldn't eat, and it was only a few days of good life, and I even learned from those capitalists to lose weight.
As soon as Li Yanhong's words fell, Erchun endured it for a while before he held back two words, "hooligan".
After speaking, he didn't pay attention to Li Yanhong behind him, and opened the pot to serve food to the house.
Li Yanhong stopped doing it, "Hey, I said the second girl, my old Li said that you are fat, why did you become a hooligan?" What do you usually say about my Lao Li, I don't care about Lao Li, but it's not okay to say that I am a hooligan, my Lao Li is a soldier. ”
"Will the soldiers come here because of their style?" Erchun didn't reply to him, "You have to got, don't argue with me here, you say you're not a hooligan, then you say how do you know I'm fat?" Did you see it or touch it? ”
Speaking of this, Er Chun couldn't care about being ashamed, she didn't believe that Li Yanhong dared to say that he had seen and touched it, if he dared to say it, he would dare to throw the spoon he was holding in his hand on his head.
Li Yanhong was blocked and couldn't speak, he had seen and touched it, but how could he admit it, didn't he admit that he was a rogue when he admitted it? But if you want to say no, then how do you know that this girl is fat?
At this moment, Li Yanhong's brain, which had always had some ghost ideas, was not easy to use, and he knew that he was surrounded by this girl, "My old Li doesn't care about your little girl." ”
You're interested.
Erchun snorted, put a rag in his hand on the rice bowl, got up and turned into the house.
When he entered the house and put the rice bowl on the kang, Er Chun still felt that his ears were boiling soup, but fortunately, he had lived two lifetimes, and he was no longer a little girl, but an old lady, so he dared to say such a thing without being reserved, leaving Li Yanhong speechless.
Old man Zhang came back quickly, Li Yanhong heard that people were coming back in the West House, so he came out of the West House and sat on the kang to eat, Erchun was also very hungry, only a little dry food at noon, but when he saw Ermi, he still couldn't eat it, although he lived to the end of his life in those years, he was able to eat rice and white flour every day, and now he went back to eat sorghum rice and millet seeds, Erchun felt that his throat hurt from scraping, but thinking that his grandfather's little thing should be saved for the future, Erchun cheered up again, and ate a bowl of rice before putting down the chopsticks.
Li Yanhong is not picky, anything can be done, and besides, this ordinary meal is good and delicious.
Old man Zhang didn't care, but when he looked at his granddaughter, he felt distressed, "Chun'er, I haven't eaten fine grain at home for a while, and tomorrow I will have time to go to the supply and marketing cooperatives to buy some white noodles and come back." ”
"No, this is okay, our family still has food to eat, and other people's families just don't have food to eat, so what fine grain do they eat." Erchun educated his grandfather, "The salary you have opened in the past two months is 70 yuan, and the person who went to buy you wine, there is 50 yuan, which means that the family will need money at any time, and it will be spent without saving at all." There is still more than ten catties of wine for a month, and it is okay to drink too much, but drinking too much wine will hurt your body, you have to drink less, and I will give you five catties of wine in the next month. ”
This tone is not a negotiation at all, but a decision.
"Five catties is not enough to stuff your teeth, ten catties, ten catties." As soon as Old Man Zhang heard that the wine was going to be cut again, he disagreed, and pulled Li Yanhong to help him, "Xiao Li, you give a review, ten catties of wine is not much, right?" I'm an old man buried in loess to my neck, and if I don't drink some wine, what hope do I have? ”
Erchun raised his eyes and glared at Li Yanhong, that look seemed to warn, you dare to help say a word.
