Chapter Seventy-Nine: Water Baby Reads
The house is very clean, and there is no need to do hygiene, just spread the futon on the kang.
Then find a place to put the things you brought, there was a neatly stacked pile of chopping wood in the corner of the wall outside the kitchen, Mao Hongyu went to clean up the kitchen first, took out all the things, pulled out the fresh vegetables in the yard, and began to prepare lunch.
The sun was setting in the west, the house was cleaned up, and the family gathered around the kitchen kang to eat lunch.
Although it was a simple mixed noodle pancake with a light cabbage soup with no oil, the family had a lot of fun.
Even Ye Tiancheng had a smile on his face: "Qingqing, tomorrow your mother and I will go around and do something to make money." ”
Ye Qing waved his hand: "Don't worry, let's go to the police station tomorrow, first handle the temporary household registration, and then find a school for Shuiwa, and finally I will take you to see a few places I see, my mother doesn't know how to make sugar pancakes, I think it's okay to do this, if I can make some snacks or something, it's better." ”
Mao Hongyu's eyes lit up: "I can make dim sum, and I can also fry sugar pancakes, these are all learned from your grandfather, he was a famous dim sum chef in the early years, but later life was difficult and he was not qualified to do it." ”
Speaking of which, I am uncertain again: "It's just that I haven't done it for so many years, and I'm afraid I can't get the craftsmanship accurately." ”
Ye Qing was pleasantly surprised: "That's really good, we can practice a few times first, if it's not delicious, we can eat it ourselves, as long as the foundation is there, we will definitely be able to do it well." ”
Mao Hongyu's confidence came up again: "Dad, you have to help me build a stove for baking snacks in the yard, and I'll tell you how to build it." ”
Ye Tiancheng nodded again and again: "No problem." ”
Ye Qinggang was still thinking about baking dim sum and wanted to buy an oven, but she didn't expect Mao Hongyu to build a stove for baking dim sum, it is estimated that it is like a show she has watched, the kind of relatively primitive charcoal grill.
As soon as Ye Zhinan heard that everyone had something to do, he went to school alone, and he was a little unhappy: "I also want to do things, I can't be a family to eat." ”
Ye Qing smiled: "How come? You go and help our mom sell things after school, so that she won't be bullied. ”
Ye Zhinan was satisfied: "That's okay, as long as I'm here, no one will dare to bully us." ”
The family talked and laughed, full of hope for the future.
In the evening, Sun Cheng came over, and Ye Qing left him a message saying that he would come back the next day, so he waited for him to come over after work, and he didn't know if anyone came back.
Seeing that the courtyard gate was hidden, there were a lot of things in the courtyard, and the clothesline was tied with gray patched clothes, it seemed that the family had arrived.
I patted the courtyard door and pushed the door in, and saw that although there were a lot of things in the small courtyard, they were neatly cleaned up, and there were two pickle jars under the eaves that were almost one meter high.
It seems that this is a clean and neat person.
Ye Qing was wearing a white floral long-sleeved shirt, with fat patch pants underneath, and square-mouth cloth shoes came out of the West House, and when he saw Sun Cheng, he smiled with a bend of his eyebrows: "Comrade Sun is here, Shui Wa quickly move a stool for Brother Sun." ”
It was the first time Sun Cheng had seen Ye Qing wearing light-colored clothes, which made the whole person look a lot more pure and beautiful, just like a magnolia flower, with the smile on her face, it was a little dazzling.
I was stunned for a moment and laughed: "What's polite, I'm here myself, the road is going well, right?" ”
Ye Zhinan jumped out with a small square stool, and greeted Sun Cheng with a smile: "Brother Sun is good." ”
Sun Cheng greeted Ye Zhinan with a smile, and then followed Ye Tiancheng and Mao Hongyu who came out later: "Uncle, aunt, how are you." ”
Ye Tiancheng looked at Ye Qing with a puzzled expression, and wanted to ask where did this young man with a smile on his face come from?
Ye Qing hurriedly explained: "Parents, this is Sun Cheng, a comrade-in-arms from Jinbei, and he helped solve everything we came to the city." ”
When Ye Tiancheng heard that he was Luo Jinbei's comrade-in-arms, his attitude became a little respectful and restrained: "Hello, hello, our family has caused you trouble." ”
Sun Cheng smiled: "Uncle, it's too much for you to say that, Jinbei is my best brother, if you need anything in the future, just look for me, don't be polite." ”
Ye Tiancheng still thanked him vigorously, and shouted Mao Hongyu: "Hurry up and make a bowl of egg tea for Comrade Xiaosun." ”
Sun Cheng hurriedly stopped: "Auntie, don't be so polite, the family is still waiting for me to go back for dinner, I'll send something to my sister-in-law." ”
As he spoke, he handed Ye Qing a stack of tickets, about a dozen.
Ye Qing also politely took the ticket: "Thank you so much, I will remember it clearly when I go back." ”
Sun Cheng didn't stay long and left in a hurry.
Ye Qing began to study the tickets in his hand, there were industrial tickets, you could buy sewing machines, bicycles and the like, and the remaining few were non-staple food tickets and sugar tickets.
The sugar stamps add up to ten pounds.
Ye Qingke needs these sugar stamps too much, sugar is indispensable for fried sugar pancakes, and now the sugar in this place is still supplied with tickets, and the sugar in a year is no more than two catties.
If you don't buy it with a sugar ticket, the price will be more expensive, and the cost of sugar pancakes will go up.
Mao Hongyu is still very curious about Sun Cheng's identity: "What does that descendant do?" It looks different from us rural people, and it feels a lot more magnificent. ”
Ye Qing put away all the tickets and explained with a smile: "It may be that I have retired from the army and been assigned to work in the unit." ”
Mao Hongyu nodded again and again: "That's very remarkable, it's a commercial grain to eat." ”
Ye Qing looked at Mao Hongyu with a smile: "In the future, I will also let you have a city hukou." ”
Mao Hongyu waved her hand again and again: "I can't think of it, I can't dream of such a life now, I didn't expect that one day we will be able to live in the city." ”
Ye Qing was just smiling on the side, because she knew what the future would look like, so she was full of confidence.
Early the next morning, Ye Qing first took the three of them to the police station to make up for the temporary household registration, and then inquired about where the nearby primary school was.
It's not far away, and the school has already opened, so it's easy to find someone.
The primary school is much more broken than Ye Qing thought, she thought about how it is also a primary school in the city, not to mention the buildings, at least the brick houses should have, and the result is a large courtyard, with a row of five or six classrooms in the middle, which is a clod wall, exposed to the wind and sun, and the walls are mottled.
The window glass is not intact, and it must leak in winter.
The principal welcomed Ye Qing's family very warmly: "Don't look at the broken school now, the new campus has been allocated above, so let's take a look at it first." ”
After speaking, he looked at Ye Qing with a smile: "How old is the child who is ready to study?"
Ye Qing hurriedly dragged Ye Zhinan: "He, my brother is fifteen this year." ”
The principal looked at Ye Zhinan, who was 1.8 meters tall: "What grade do you want to go to?" ”
Ye Qing raised a finger: "First grade, we start from the first grade." ”
The smile on the principal's face gradually froze, and even a little solemn: "There are older children in the first grade class, the oldest is only ten years old, and your younger brother is a little too old. ”
