"The kebab is ready." On the other side, the mutton skewers in Sun Jian's hands came out of the pot collectively, and the mutton skewers sprinkled with cumin had no fishy smell, and the fragrance rushed to the face, and it was 365 degrees straight into the nose without dead ends.

"Give me a string."

"I want it too."

"Oops, don't rob it"

"You get out of the way, step on my feet."

The courtyard was bustling for a while, and several men, with their tall heads and great impact, suddenly squeezed the weaker girls and a few small animals that had just gotten eggplants out of the flower pavilion.

Ma Mei sat on the stone bench, waiting for her boyfriend to send her fragrant meat skewers, and sure enough, Ouyang Jing lived up to expectations, holding a handful of meat skewers, and walked towards the flower pavilion with a smile on his face.

In addition to his girlfriend, there are also chiefs and elders in the flower pavilion, and he can't blatantly swallow things alone, so he reluctantly distributes a few strings of love, and at the same time, he doesn't forget to explain to his girlfriend.

Seeing that he was so embarrassed, Mame spoke.

"It's okay, you just go and help with the barbecue, you see Hao Hao is busy, it's not good for you to sit here as a big man, go quickly." Ma Mei did not choose to let him sit next to him because of her boyfriend's hospitality, but asked him to help, sweeping the yard at a glance, how can there be more than 30 people, just rely on five people to roast, and Ma Yue can only eat one meal in the Year of the Monkey.

Ouyang Jing saw that Ma Mei was so firm, and his pupils flashed a trace of reluctance, but he quickly hid it, and then quickly pecked his girlfriend's cheek, provoking Ma Mei to roll his eyes and not forget to glare at him fiercely.

Naturally, this action did not escape the eyes of everyone present, who smiled and pretended not to know, and then laughed and ate, pretending not to see at all.

Ouyang Jing was naturally overjoyed when he got the benefit, and then strode towards the grill with a smile.

"I'll come, you go get some food." Ouyang Jing took Hao Hao's job, the man had a lot of strength, and the speed of a roasted eggplant churning up and down from side to side was obviously much faster, Hao Hao saw his happy appearance, and couldn't help but ask.

"Are you on the verge of good things?"

"What's good?" Ouyang Jing asked puzzled.

"Getting married, what's the good thing?" Hao Hao asked rhetorically. Seeing Ouyang Jing's puzzled face, she suddenly felt that she had misunderstood.

Suddenly a little embarrassed, her cheeks flushed slightly, if it weren't for the two being friends, she wouldn't have been able to get off the stage on the spot.

"This is estimated to take a while, by the way, do you still have the medicinal herbs you sold me last time? Our chief said that the effect of this medicine is wonderful, and I want to buy it in large quantities from you. Ouyang Jing rarely saw Hao Hao so shy and embarrassed, and immediately grinned, but he was quickly held by his own hand again, raised his eyes to look at the flower pavilion, and then fixed his gaze on the somewhat blessed chief, he remembered what the chief had explained.

"Yes, there is, but how much do you want, if it's too much, I don't think I can supply it." Hao Hao didn't agree immediately, but asked cautiously tentatively. Most of the medicinal materials she took out were common anti-inflammatory and hemostasis, and the body was supplemented by small flowers from the back mountain to find herself, and she could transplant them into the space only after finding them, and then plant them in a large area.

"Our chief has over so many people." While Ouyang Jing gestured, he didn't forget to whisper in his ear.

"So much?" After Hao Hao heard it clearly, he asked in surprise.

"yes, how many herbs do you want to get?" Ouyang Jing shrugged, looking like he knew you would be so surprised, but he quickly came back to his senses and thought about it again, and said with some embarrassment.

"Do you have that much in reserve?"

"Yes, yes, but not at the moment, I have to go to the back mountain to find it for you, some scarce medicinal materials have to be found now, and I also have a secret base in the back mountain, this matter can't tell everyone of you, it's about my income." Hao Hao told a serious lie, and when she matched her serious expression, Ouyang Jing actually believed it.

"Okay, tell me when you're ready, I'll take it, as for the price, you and I are friends cheaper, just for those lovely people." Ouyang Jing said with a smile.

"You don't have to say this, I know how to do it." Hao Hao naturally won't make much money from them, those soldiers who defend the country are clothed in stars and moons, exposed to the wind and sun, and can't go back to their homes during the New Year's holidays, how can she make money from them, and with her understanding of the old chief, this old man who has taken a back seat is not a greedy person, if he was greedy for money, he would have forcibly ordered himself a long time ago.

"With your words, I'm relieved." Ouyang Jing really breathed a sigh of relief, although China was developing rapidly at this time, some places were still very backward, the national income and GDP were still very low, and there were still many places to replenish.

The two of them were busy talking, but the eggplant was quickly baked.

When the long table was full of meat and vegetables, at this time, the street lights in the yard were on, and more than 30 people were talking and eating lively.

Thousands of miles outside the yard, thousands of lights. The courtyard was brightly lit, Sun Jian had almost eaten, so he went to the kitchen to make supper for the crew, the kitchen was gurgling with bone broth, the room was steaming with delicious heat, and the transparent glass was filled with white mist, because the temperature was very high, it quickly evaporated again, and a few old people who were full of food and drink leaned barefoot in the rocking chair of the flower pavilion, holding the hot fruit tea, raised their heads from the foggy tea, and smiled: "This day is really pleasant, I didn't dare to think about it before, but I didn't expect it to come true now."

Ouyang Jing helped collect the tableware, and stood quietly outside the flower pavilion at some point, listening to a few old people reminiscing about the past.

"Yes, I can't even think about it, before the founding of the People's Republic of China, the people were in the difficult days of war, and it was a luxury to have a full stomach, who made it, and wanted to build the country in less than 40 years, earth-shaking changes have taken place, from black buns to yellow buns and then from yellow buns to white buns, to the current big fish and meat, think about it like in a dream." The old chief looked through the hot teacup, as if he had suddenly returned to the war years, and his own size of the same age, whether they had withdrawn from the war and witnessed the good days of today, he had a young and hopeful face in his mind, they were moving in the direction of the motherland, towards victory, sweating, bleeding without tears, desperately pushing them to victory with both hands, now his heart hurts, he remembers that the youngest of them is less than fourteen years old, in the era of lack of clothes and medicine, lack of food and clothing, They have no hesitation for freedom, for their own beautiful times, wholeheartedly, so unreservedly dedicated, the old chief Meimei can see their face when he closes his eyes, what kind of face is it, the eyes are shining, the feelings in the eyes contain complex, hope, longing, hope, sadness, pain, sadness and other complex feelings, such a face often appears in his dreams, making him sleepless, so that he Meimei can't sleep.

"Lao Li, what's wrong with you?" Sun Laohan accidentally turned his head to look at his comrades opposite, although he did not serve in the same army, but they were all members of the Huaxia army, so he knew that he had also participated in the war, Sun Laohan felt the same way, seeing this old man's sad face, he couldn't help asking.

"I think of the things of the war, and I think of those comrades who are not alive, and I feel uncomfortable." The old chief wiped his reddened eyes and sniffed sadly.

"The deceased is gone, don't be sad, we are a group of living people, we have to live well for them, our happy life is not easy to come by, you don't want to be immersed in sadness from time to time, with your current position, it's time to do something for those people, such as their descendants, their families, or how the people in the village lived before their lives, you did it for them, it was for them to fulfill their wishes." Sun Laohan actually played psychological warfare, and it belongs to the kind of bland and most shocking methods, often these are the ones that can poke people's weakness the most.

Sure enough, as soon as the words fell, the old chief actually smiled, his mouth that had lost a few teeth went up, and the expression on his bright face returned to normal, as if the sadness just now was just an illusion, and his tense shoulders suddenly relaxed and drooped, and the person looked much more energetic.

"yes." After a long time, the old chief sighed.

His gaze penetrated the night, and returned to the war-torn era, when he was only eighteen years old, the first time he was a soldier, the young man was always ignorant and reckless, ignorant but full of curiosity, he followed the large army, tossing and turning, climbing snow-capped mountains, crossing grasslands, to Gan Province, and then to the revolutionary holy land of Yan'an, since then he has seen many battles, some with invaders, some with different political views of the opposing parties, some with bandits, and more after the founding of the country, with those foreign countries who are eyeing each other and have sinister intentions, along the way, there have been batches of people who have fallen, and now they are distressed to think about it.

Then the few people sat quietly like this, not knowing where their thoughts were flying.

In the kitchen, Sun Jian was busy sweating profusely, and the thin man next to him stared at the soup stock in the pot, swallowing his saliva constantly.

"Are the steamed buns cooked?" Sun Jian looked at the sky outside, the moonlight tonight is also extraordinarily beautiful, a full moon hangs in the sky, and the white moonlight is sprinkled on the earth, covering everything with a hazy veil.

"Alright, it's time for dinner." The fat man was not as greedy as the sunspot, he stared at the cage drawer on the stove Inside was a freshly steamed multigrain steamed bun, originally Sun Jian thought that it was a pity to eat white noodles at night, it was better to change it to corn, sorghum or beans, and communicated with Hao Hao, she also agreed, every day there are big fish and meat to eat, and it is good to have some miscellaneous grains occasionally.
