Chapter 87 1990
Chapter 87 1990
Zhang Cuilian got the last more than 100 yuan for the newspaper manuscript fee, and she was glad that her first short story was really favored by a publishing house.
It is a love story of rebellion against oppression and struggle against fate, and it is more positive. The whole article is only more than 30,000 words in total, and the manuscript fee given by the publishing house is not much, but it is 10,000 yuan. Zhang Cuilian calculated that it was a huge amount of money to deduct taxes.
She didn't dare to make too much publicity, but just wrote to Gu Zhicheng to report the good news, and then told Xie Jun and Dong Lihua very calmly.
Xie Jun, who learned the news, was not calm, although it was not yet time to celebrate. But we must also insist on having a good year, one is to celebrate Zhang Cuilian's ability to publish a book, and the other is to sweep away a lot of bad luck this year.
Xie Jihao followed him to go shopping, dazzled and excited. Not only did he get new clothes, but he also had all the school supplies he needed to start school.
Although he didn't know exactly what happened, he could feel that all this came from his sister Zhang Cuilian. He guessed that either Zhang Cuilian had made progress in her studies, or she was really going to get married.
Here, the family is happily preparing for the New Year, but on the other hand, Shao Hua and Zhang Guangfu have begun to have a cold war. For the first time, the two did not let each other go, and Shao Hua only cooked for himself and his son.
It's a pity that these two people never noticed that their son didn't care about his parents' quarrels, and he had another hobby every day in addition to playing games. He was obsessed with the Little Tigers and spent his days fantasizing about how to dress himself up like that.
The Chinese New Year's Eve was a day that Xie Jihao could never forget in his life, and he didn't know that he could still celebrate the New Year like this in this world. No wonder his mother often said that the third master had money in his family, and this time he really saw the life of a rich man.
In the past two days, many good things have come in the house like flowing water, all kinds of delicious New Year's goods and beautiful clothes. The three mothers skillfully cut out many beautiful window flowers and pasted them on the windows, and my sister also wrote couplets and pasted them on the door.
The New Year's Day was even more terrible, and when she got up early in the morning, the third master pulled her to set off a 500-ring firecracker in the yard. also bought him a box of cannonballs, so that he could take them apart and play with them one by one.
In the morning, I ate sweet and sour eggs, fried round eggs one by one with sweet and sour sauce poured on top. Xie Jihao couldn't help but eat six dishes and shut his mouth, the staple food was steamed bread slices wrapped in eggs and fried in an oil pan. There is also a bowl of hot millet porridge with small pickles on a half-table table.
When he arrived at the third master, Xie Jihao knew that his sister was not only good at studying. She can eat the same pickles at home every day, and she doesn't eat them the same for two weeks. is the potato that he is used to eating, and he can turn over many tricks in his sister's hand.
The meal at three o'clock in the afternoon was even more delicious, even better than going out with his mother to eat noodles. Zhang Cuilian only made a little bit of each dish on the plate, and said that she would continue to cook delicious food in the evening.
In the past, during the Chinese New Year at home, Ji Hong would make a chicken stew with mushrooms and then stew a pot of meat. Half of the chicken is eaten in the afternoon, and the other half is eaten at Chinese New Year's Eve in the evening. After the pot of meat is stewed, slice it and put it on a plate, prepare a bowl of soy sauce and put it in the garlic paste, and eat it with garlic sauce. The rest of the radish and tofu balls, roasted cabbage, stewed pig's trotters, and a plate of pork skin jelly are considered for the New Year.
And today, Xie Jihao saw his sister's real craftsmanship, the traditional chicken stewed mushrooms, braised pork knuckles and braised fish remain unchanged. Zhang Cuilian made a roasted eggplant, and he didn't know why there were still fresh eggplants this season. And it turns out that the eggplant has been fried in oil, and it is so fragrant when fried.
The dried beans in the braised pork ribs taste better than the meat. He can eat as many crispy beans as he wants, and the shredded sweet potatoes are also fried in oil.
The most powerful thing is the pot of meat, he has grown so big, but today is the first time he has eaten it. All of a sudden, I felt that there was no better dish in this world than pot meat.
is also a family of four, and their family has always had six dishes for the New Year. His mother said that the New Year is an addiction, and it doesn't matter if you open up to eat it on this day. But every time he and his brother would eat a bad stomach, because the oil and water were too big and they ate too much food.
Today, there are ten dishes in the family of the three masters, including chicken stewed mushrooms, braised fish, pork knuckles in sauce, pot-wrapped meat, and stewed pork ribs. Not to mention the roasted eggplant, shredded sweet potatoes and crispy beans, they have to go through the oil again, and any one of them can kill a person. His sister also mixed a five-color peel and made a plate of pork skin jelly as a cold dish.
He didn't even know how to eat this delicious dish on the table. Fortunately, I stayed here with the three masters these days, and I ate better than my family every day. He won't be so greedy, and he knows that he shouldn't eat delicious food and make it to death, so that he is uncomfortable and even more humiliating.
After eating, Zhang Cuilian asked Xie Jihao to go out for a stroll and find a nearby child to run more. It was time to perform the party in the evening, and Xie Jihao ran home upside down.
This warm evening is also something Xie Jihao has never seen before, he used to play mahjong in the next room with his mother. His father stood aside to support him, and the two brothers watched the Spring Festival Gala while eating melon seeds. The time was almost ten o'clock, and the people who played mahjong at home were all dispersed.
Mom goes to the kitchen to heat up the meat dishes, stew a fish, and fry the plate of potato chips. Cooperate with his father to make a pot of dumplings, eat at twelve o'clock, and then sleep as a family.
This time it was not like this in the third master's house, it was in the small front room. He sat on the kang with the three masters and three mothers and watched TV, and there were peanuts, melon seeds, sugar cubes and one or two large bowls of canned oranges on the kang table. The three masters gnawed on the frozen pears again, and the three mothers ate melon seeds.
Sister Zhang Cuilian carried a pot of noodles into the house, put it on the kang, and then moved a chair and leaned on the three mothers, staring at the TV together.
In every show, everyone has a good taste, laughing together when they meet a funny one, and when they encounter something unfun, they take out a poker and play a round of "Niangniang".
Zhang Cuilian looked at the Spring Festival Gala thoughtfully, and many of the songs that were widely circulated in later generations turned out to be from 1990. For example, the song "What a Big Tree" and "The Flowers of Shandandan Bloom Red and Gorgeous" in my memory.
In the Spring Festival Gala in 1990, Zhu Shimao and Chen Peisi were still golden partners, and every word they said was so funny. It turned out that in this year, Uncle Benshan officially logged into the Spring Festival Gala, he walked with Zhao-style steps, wore a Zhao-style top hat, and said in a Zhao-style tone, and performed a sketch called "Blind Date".
At this time, no one knew that this inconspicuous small-eyed Northeast man would become the sketch king and lead his era.
Zhang Cuilian suddenly thought of a question, since she was reborn with such a strong golden finger. Is it possible to change a lot of bad things, and is it possible to live a better life through the prophets?
It's just a pity that all she can remember are some memory fragments that are not very useful to her. She didn't know the numbers of the lottery jackpot every year, and she didn't know where the gold was mined. She couldn't be a prophet, but she didn't know how to stop it from happening.
What she knows is that many people still don't know what a computer is, but within a few years, many people have begun to pay attention to learning computers. Her daughter Qiaoqiao had this in her elementary school curriculum, and later became a lover of online shopping.
She didn't know which stock would sell, and she didn't want to ride the stock market. But she knows that housing prices will rise sharply, and what will become of her future if she buys a house in Beijing in advance? Not to mention Beijing, it is how many people in Q City have suddenly turned from poor to rich in order to build high-speed rail. She could at least buy two houses in advance in the suburbs where birds don't poop, and give her children a chance to split the second generation.
"Cui Lian'er, Cui Lian'er, why are you still selling stupid?" Dong Lihua pushed Zhang Cuilian and asked with a smile, "What do you want?" ”
Xie Jihao hurriedly urged Zhang Cuilian: "Sister, play your cards quickly." My third aunt has two J's, you don't care? ”
Xie Jun spoke for Zhang Cuilian: "The child may have some inspiration, don't call her." Let her forget about it all at once, and let her think about it. ”
Zhang Cuilian giggled and lied: "I really thought of it, oops, Dad, you play for me." I'll wrap the dumplings out first, and then I'll talk about it. ”
In this way, Xie Jun beat two people by himself, and Zhang Cuilian ran to the kitchen to roll out the skin and make dumplings by herself. Dong Lihua wanted to help, but was pulled by Xie Jun: "Okay, she has her own thoughts." Don't get involved. ”
Dong Lihua asked unknowingly: "I think about her, and I don't speak when I work." ”
Xie Jun snorted coldly: "What do you think she really thinks of there?" Looking at her sad look, she must be thinking about the bad things that Shao Hua provoked. ”
Dong Lihua nodded clearly, frowned and discussed with Xie Jun: "It's really not good, just tell them about Xiao Gu." ”
Xie Jun shook his head: "Pull it down, don't you see how evil it is?" 8,000 yuan dowry, also licking his face to ask. Tell them that you can't just make this thing yellow? ”
Dong Lihua had no choice, she was full of sorrow and shrunk on the kang and lost her spirit: "Then what should I do?" Oops, what a sad person. ”
Xie Jun thought about it and decided: "Write a letter to Xiao Gu, and I'll tell him." Explain the matter here clearly, and let him type the marriage report first. Then hurry up and tie the knot first, and then talk about other things. ”
Dong Lihua was white: "Can it work?" ”
After thinking about it, he asked tentatively, "What if people don't want to get married?" Are we too busy? It's not reserved at all, and it's contemptible. ”
Xie Jun glared: "? If the subject is not married, what do you mean to be a hooligan? Why do people who don't get married give you a passbook? Are you missing? ”
Dong Lihua woke up after being scolded and immediately became happy. Clapped his hands and said, "Yes, people must have meant this for a long time." Oops, I'm so confused. ”
After saying that, I am not in a hurry, and I will stop playing poker. crooked to the side, he crossed his fingers and whispered to calculate, what dowry should be prepared for Zhang Cuilian. After all, the days go by too fast, and the girl may go out in a blink of an eye.
Xie Jihao's little head looked left and right, and he couldn't understand what the two were talking about at all. It's just that he knows one thing, that is, Zhang Cuilian is really going to get married.
