Chapter 071: Jia Zhang's Embarrassed Return (10,000 Words Chapter 3/10)
Evening.
Jiang Ping'an picked up a few potatoes from the space, peeled them and shredded them.
He went to the cellar and took a Chinese cabbage, washed it, and tore the cabbage and the leaves into small pieces.
Strange to say, if the cabbage is cut, the taste is always wrong, and it has to be torn into pieces by hand to taste good.
Jiang Ping'an plans to eat sour and hot shredded potatoes and stir-fried cabbage in the evening, and the staple food is naturally white flour steamed buns.
There are a lot of steamed buns in the space, no need to steam again, just stir-fry now.
When the students in the courtyard came back from school, it was lively and lively, and they instantly became popular.
Even if these little ones don't have enough to eat, they still seem to be energetic, laughing and tireless.
A large lump of lard melts at high temperatures, moisturizing and bright, exuding an attractive crispy fragrance.
The oil is fragrant, mellow and rich, and it makes a gurgling sound in the hot pan, which makes people salivate.
"Thorny ......"
Put the peppercorns in the pot and stir-fry until fragrant.
Fry and remove, then add green onions, ginger, minced garlic, chili peppers, etc.
The rich aroma of lard, mixed with the spicy aroma of various accessories, overflowed from the room and spread to the courtyard.
The neighbors were stunned, snorting and sucking.
"It smells so good!"
"This smell is amazing!"
"It's so fragrant, and only by smelling this fragrance can I feel that I'm still alive!"
A number of children came to smell the fragrance and peeked at the door of Jiang Ping'an's house, drooling.
"Thorny ......"
Jiang Ping'an turned around and smiled at them, poured the potatoes into the pot and stir-fried.
Soon, sour vinegar, shredded red pepper, chopped green onion, appropriate amount of salt and monosodium glutamate were added, and the aroma was tangy.
"I can finally eat MSG from the space!" Jiang Ping'an thought in his heart.
There are now three major MSG brands on the market:
The red rose brand of Tianjin MSG Factory, the ancient light brand of Taiyuan MSG Factory, and the red plum brand of Shenyang MSG Factory.
However, the current MSG production method has been using the traditional protein acid hydrolysis method.
This method has low yield, poor operating environment, high labor intensity, serious pollution, and slow production speed.
The annual output of the whole country is only a few hundred tons.
In this day and age when eating is a problem.
There are few non-staple food condiments that are supplied and sold in a unified manner, and the supply and marketing cooperatives basically do not see MSG.
Even a large factory of 10,000 people, such as a rolling mill, can rarely get MSG tickets, which is very rare.
Jiang Ping'an also tried to find some MSG to make it fresh and appetizing, but after finding many ways, he couldn't get any of it.
Well, now, your own space can also produce MSG.
In the future, stir-fry and cook soup with a little bit, and it tastes great!
After a while, a plate of oily, smooth, crisp and refreshing shredded sour and hot potatoes came out of the pot.
Not long after, a plate of stir-fried cabbage with a green color and a tender and crisp taste was also fried.
Jiang Ping'an came back to his senses and found that the children at the door were still watching!
"Look at it, and then see me go to your house for dinner!" Jiang Ping'an's eyes widened and he shouted.
The children immediately dispersed, and a few boys turned around and stuck out their tongues at Jiang Ping'an, making faces.
"Haha, you little bunnies are waiting for me!" Jiang Ping'an laughed.
Speaking of which, the children in the courtyard love to be close to Jiang Ping'an.
Because he loves to brag, no, storytelling.
As a buyer, especially if you want to go to the countryside to purchase, storytelling is also a must-have ability.
For those farmers who stay at home.
The buyer's footsteps go further than those craftsmen and craftsmen, and they have endless stories to tell.
In the drying field, or in the field, or in the shade of trees, or in the shade of the alley.
People love to listen to the buyers tell all kinds of things from the outside, and they themselves will talk about the shortcomings of their parents.
During the exchange, the buyer will ask which household has something to sell, and the farmer will increase his knowledge.
Driving away the children, Jiang Ping'an took the two dishes to the high stool and put them away.
I found another big bowl and took out six hot steamed buns from the space and put them on.
A mouthful of vegetables, a mouthful of steamed buns, chew and swallow slowly.
I had just eaten a few bites when there was a sound of footsteps.
Jiang Ping'an's ears trembled slightly, and he said secretly in his heart:
"Is Yan Jiedi here? What is she doing here? ”
In these years, every family is short of food.
Under normal circumstances, during the time of eating, everyone has a tacit understanding, and very few people visit the door.
Yan Jiedi arrived at the door, stretched out her head and looked inside, blinked her eyes, and said weakly: "Brother Ping'an!" ”
"Uh, Xie Di, what's wrong?" Jiang Ping'an smiled.
Yan Xie Di pursed her lips and asked in a low voice, "Does Brother Ping'an have any clothes to wash?" ”
Jiang Ping'an shook his head and asked with a smile, "Did you help clean this room?" ”
The clothes are there, but they have to be left to He Yushui to wash, and he doesn't dare to give the clothes to this girl.
"Yes, I'll come to clean it every other day, is Brother Ping An satisfied?"
Yan Jiedi's mouth hooked slightly, and replied.
Jiang Ping'an nodded with a smile and said, "Haha, the cleaning is very clean, I am very satisfied!" ”
"Come on! Come in, I'll give you something to eat!" ”
"Huh!" Yan Jiedi's eyes lit up, and she answered, and trotted in.
Seeing a few steamed buns in the bowl and two plates of stir-fried vegetables with plenty of oil and water, exuding the aroma of meat, she swallowed her saliva.
thought that Jiang Ping'an would invite her to dinner, but who knew that Jiang Ping'an took it out of his pocket and said with a smile: "Open your mouth!" ”
Yan Xie Di was stunned for a moment, opened her mouth lightly, and then Jiang Ping'an threw something the size of a pea into her mouth.
She took a sip, and the sweetness spread out in her mouth, and she couldn't help squinting her eyes, and said with a smile: "It's so sweet!" ”
"Haha, this is a reward for you!" Jiang Ping'an said with a smile.
Yan Xie Di smiled and said, "Thank you, Brother Ping'an, I will clean your room in the future." ”
"Xie Di is really diligent, clean carefully, and I will give you delicious food in the future." Jiang Ping'an smiled and nodded.
After thinking about it, he added, "That's it, you can help me clean it every other day in the future." ”
"How about I give you a piece of candy every time?"
Yan Xie Di nodded fiercely and said excitedly: "Yes, even if Brother Ping An doesn't give me anything, I am willing to clean up." ”
"That's not good, you work so hard to help me clean up, I can't treat you badly." Jiang Ping'an said solemnly.
Yan Xie Di smiled happily and nodded in response: "Okay, I'll listen to Brother Ping'an." ”
"Okay, it's settled, you go back first, and you'll clean up tomorrow." Jiang Ping'an waved his hand.
Yan Xie Di hesitated, hummed softly, and reluctantly left.
After she left, Jiang Ping'an continued to eat.
There are steamed buns under vegetables, which is much more comfortable than eating steamed buns dry.
Two dishes and six steamed buns went down, and the whole person became lazy.
"Eh, I lost just now, I should tell Xie Di and help me wash the dishes!" Jiang Ping'an said with a look of annoyance.
This winter, washing dishes is the most uncomfortable.
Especially when he stir-fried, he put a lot of oil, and these two plates had to be scalded with hot water to be cleaned.
"Wash, wash, and discuss with Xie Di when you find an opportunity."
Jiang Ping'an hesitated, but got up and began to put away the dishes and clean the stove.
"After all, there must be a mother-in-law to take care of the family, which is serious, how can the old man do such a thing?"
——————————
Yanbu noble family.
When Yan Bugui saw Yan Jiedi coming back, he said curiously:
"What did Jiang Ping'an's family eat at night? Oil sesame oil fragrant. ”
"Two dishes, a shredded potato and a fried cabbage, plus white flour steamed buns." Yan Xie Di pursed her lips and replied.
The three mothers who were cooking interjected: "The oil and water should be enough, right?" The fragrance can be smelled from afar. ”
"Well, it's oily, it's fragrant, I'm drooling." Yan Jiedi said.
Yan Bugui frowned and said, "You helped him clean the room, and he didn't leave you a bite to eat?" ”
"No, I was given a candy." Yan Xie Di pursed her lips and smiled.
Then he stuck out his tongue and showed his parents the candy the size of a sesame seed.
Yan Bugui raised his eyebrows and said, "The sugar was eaten by you?" Why don't you keep it and bring it back? ”
"When the time comes, it will be melted with boiling water, and everyone in our family will be able to taste it!"
"Brother Ping'an threw it directly in my mouth." Yan Jiedi was all mouthful, and said a little unconvinced:
"Besides, I earned that sugar, why should I bring it back and drink it?"
Yan Bugui suddenly got angry, slapped the table, glared and said:
"Hey, you girl is really feeding for nothing, you eat me now and live in me."
"Even if it's the candy you earn, you should take it back and share it with your family!"
"I won't! That's what I earned! Yan Jiedi was also angry.
Her eyes were red, she choked up and replied, and ran to lie down in the house.
"This girl!" Yan Bugui shook his head, his face full of disappointment.
The three mothers hesitated for a moment and said, "What kind of candy is that, I didn't see it just now, it's too small, right?" ”
"I didn't see it clearly, I was relieved." Yan Bugui thought for a moment and replied.
Then he looked up at the other side of the window, and exclaimed:
"If you want me to say, in our courtyard, the most comfortable life is Jiang Ping'an, this kid."
The three mothers took out a pot of boiled cabbage from the pot, frowned and said:
"He only eats with oil once in a while, right? How can life be the most comfortable? ”
Yan Bugui shook his head and said, "You don't understand, this kid has a lot of fancy intestines!" ”
The year before last, Jiang Ping'an did Yi Zhonghai a big favor, and Yi Zhonghai promised to take over Jiang Ping'an from the year before.
At that time, Jiang Ping'an was afraid that Yi Zhonghai would regret it, so he bought a table of good dishes and asked Liu Haizhong to witness with him.
Before eating, talk about things.
Jiang Ping'an insisted on asking Liu Haizhong to swear a poisonous oath with him to cut off his children and grandchildren, so that Liu Haizhong could go to the table with him.
To say that the dish on that table is really good.
Braised pork, pig's trotters, braised pork ribs, carrot stewed beef, salted cabbage button meat, etc., many meat dishes.
There are also a few bottles of two pots, which make people swallow saliva.
Liu Haizhong and he couldn't resist the temptation of food, so Xili Hutu made a poisonous oath not to leak the matter.
Even if a few years have passed, he and Liu Haizhong dare not divulge the matter at all, for fear that the oath will be fulfilled.
But because of this, he and Liu Haizhong also knew that Jiang Ping'an, a kid, loved to eat fine grains.
Therefore, Yan Bugui said that Jiang Ping'an was more comfortable in the courtyard than anyone else.
The three mothers said: "I don't understand, but if our family owes hundreds or nearly thousands of yuan, I can't sleep well!" ”
"This is Jiang Ping'an's big heart, looking for someone to borrow money from the sky, I really don't know if I can pay it back in the future!"
Yan Bugui said: "Why can't you go yet?" ”
"Don't forget that Ren Jiang Ping'an graduated from a secondary school, and after becoming a seventh-level clerk, he will get a salary of 37 yuan and 5."
"At that time, he was as much as Silly Zhu's salary now."
"All these years have passed, no matter how much he can be promoted, right?"
"I remember that the salary of a sixth-level clerk is forty-three, so much money, he can pay back at least one or twenty yuan a month."
"Don't look at how much he borrows, it will take three or five years at most, and he will pay it off."
The three mothers suddenly said: "You don't say that I really didn't pay attention." ”
"No wonder the first and second uncles are willing to lend him money."
Yan Bugui said: "Speaking of which, he still owes our family eighteen yuan, and he will pay it back if he says it is a salary." ”
"It's time to pay it back, it's been borrowed for two months." The three mothers nodded.
Yan Bugui groaned: "I hope he doesn't pay back so quickly." ”
"What do you mean by that? You're not afraid that he won't pay it back? The three mothers frowned.
Yan Bugui glared at her and said, "Women's Taoist people are just shallow in knowledge. ”
"Although our family is in difficulty, we are not in a hurry to use the eighteen yuan."
"If Jiang Ping'an owes us money, wouldn't it be easier to talk to him if he has something to help in the future?"
"What can we do for him?" The three mothers looked puzzled.
Yan Bugui said: "Boss, when he graduates from middle school, can't he find a decent job?" ”
"Even a few children in the family can ask Jiang Ping'an to help find a job in the future!"
"This kid is wild, and he knows a lot of people."
"Let him owe us a favor, and don't suffer!"
"The most important thing is that as long as you lend him money, he will politely give him an egg every month."
"Where can I find such a good thing?"
The three mothers nodded and said:
"Okay, anyway, it's you at home who has the idea, you can do it!"
"Let's not talk about that, I'm going to call a few children over for dinner......
……
The cold wind is biting.
Jiang Ping'an took a cold air and got into Lou Xiao'e's bed.
"Shhh...... You're so cold, let me cover you. Lou Xiao'e muttered quietly.
Jiang Ping'an hugged Lou Xiao'e's soft body and asked in a low voice, "You haven't slept today?" ”
"Well, I can't sleep, I've been thinking about you all the time I've been thinking about you these days." Lou Xiao'e said coquettishly.
Jiang Ping'an pondered for a long time and said, "Look at this situation, you are in love with me." ”
"yes, I'm in love with you! You must be good to me! Lou Xiao'e generously admitted.
Jiang Ping'an smiled, pinched her face, and said softly:
"Okay, I'm warm, that's good for you!"
"Hee-hee, come on, I've been waiting for a long time!" Lou Xiao'e said with a smile.
Afterwards.
After relieving her mind for a while, Lou Xiao'e suddenly said: "I have been repeating a dream for the past few days. ”
"What dream?" Jiang Ping'an stroked her shoulder and asked casually.
Lou Xiao'e whispered: "I dreamed of a snake entwining me, and I couldn't get rid of it." ”
"Then a big bird flew and pecked me in the stomach to burrow into it."
"Tell me, is there any sign in this dream?"
Jiang Ping'an pondered for a moment, nodded and said, "Maybe!" ”
"If this dream comes true, will you be pregnant with a dragon and phoenix fetus?"
"Hehe, if only I were really pregnant with a dragon and phoenix fetus!" Lou Xiao'e said excitedly.
"If that's the case, I'll not only give you the gold bars under the bed, but also ask my dad to buy you some more cigarettes and alcohol."
Jiang Ping'an smiled dumbly, nodded and said, "Okay, okay, you can give me more things when the time comes." ”
"Well, there aren't many gold bars under the bed, I'll take the time to go back to my parents' house and get some, and I'll give you more when the time comes." Lou Xiao'e said excitedly.
Jiang Ping'an rubbed her hair and said softly: "What a stupid and stupid stupid child......
——————————
The next few days.
Jiang Ping'an was not in a hurry to go to the countryside to purchase supplies.
The factory issued a notice that all employees should concentrate on studying the spirit of the document for a few days.
It is very important to study and improve, and Jiang Ping'an followed it for several days in a row.
Closed on Sundays.
Early morning.
As soon as He Yushui returned to the courtyard, he found Jiang Ping'an early and took his clothes to wash.
I wanted to take advantage of the holiday and sleep in.
After being woken up, Jiang Ping'an couldn't sleep anymore.
"Uh......h This girl, can't you come over later to get your clothes, I'm not going to wash you! ”
Jiang Ping'an came out of the quilt, got dressed, poured hot water with a thermos, and went out to wash his face and brush his teeth.
As soon as I finished washing, I saw Xu Damao staring at the middle courtyard with the head of the chicken nest in a daze.
After seeing Jiang Ping'an, Xu Damao rubbed his eyes and said casually:
"Jiang Ping'an, Ezi asked me to bring a message, please go to my house for dinner at noon."
"yes, I see." Jiang Ping'an nodded, took the basin and was about to go back to the house.
"Don't be in a hurry to leave, it's not done yet!" Xu Damao hurriedly shouted.
Jiang Ping'an stopped, turned around and said, "Say it!" What else? ”
Xu Damao took a few steps forward and asked in a low voice:
"I've heard that for a while, you're going to go to the Northeast with your director to procure?"
"Well, there's such a thing, what's wrong?" Jiang Ping'an asked.
Xu Damao rubbed his hands and said with a smile, "Can you tell your director." ”
"Add my name to the accompanying list?"
Jiang Ping'an sneered, raised his eyebrows and said:
"Xu Damao, you haven't woken up from your dream at night, have you? It's just whimsical! ”
"We went to the Northeast to purchase equipment for the factory, why did you follow a projectionist?"
"Even if you want to purchase projection equipment, you can't afford to go to the Northeast to purchase it!"
"I know that the projection equipment in the factory is distributed by the headquarters."
"Hehe......" Xu Damao laughed dryly and replied, "I want to go out with me for a long time." ”
Jiang Ping'an suddenly said: "You just want to play with the past for a few days?" ”
"Hehe, that's what it means, do you think it's okay?" Xu Damao nodded again and again and asked with a smile.
Jiang Ping'an's face turned pale and replied:
"No! I didn't dare tell the director about it. ”
"I think if you really want to go, you might as well ask your section chief and see if you can come up with another way."
"I asked, and the section chief said he couldn't take care of it, so let me figure it out myself." Xu Damao said in frustration.
"But he also said that as long as I think of a way, he will agree to give me a letter of introduction."
"Won't I just come to you?"
"You're as good as a monkey, you must be able to think of a way!"
Jiang Ping'an couldn't cry or laugh, glared at him and said:
"Are you praising or swearing?"
"Also, you kid told me the truth, what do you want to do if you want to go to the Northeast so much?"
He didn't believe it at all, Xu Damao was just playing in the past.
Xu Damao hesitated for a long time and did not tell the truth.
"Okay, since you don't say it, don't ask me for any help!" Jiang Ping'an turned around and left.
Xu Damao opened his mouth and stretched out his hand, but finally couldn't help but say nothing.
"If you don't help, I'll figure it out myself!"
He muttered softly, turned and walked away.
Jiang Ping'an's ears are so sharp, when he returned to the house, he heard Xu Damao muttering, and couldn't help but cut his sound.
This kid is probably holding back something, otherwise why would he go all the way to the northeast?
"What do you eat in the morning?" Jiang Ping'an pondered.
After thinking about it, I decided to eat a bowl of rice noodles.
After making up his mind, Jiang Ping'an lit a fire and boiled a pot of water.
"By the way, the rain came back from school, so I shouldn't have eaten it, right?"
Jiang Ping'an suddenly thought of it, so he turned around and went out and walked to the backyard.
Middle Courtyard.
He Yushui rolled up his sleeves and was washing his clothes diligently.
The water in winter is cold and biting, and when the winter clothes are wet, they are extremely heavy and difficult to wash.
Although the weather was cold, He Yushui's tired little face was flushed, and there were sweat stains on his forehead.
"Yushui, did you have breakfast?" Jiang Ping'an asked from afar.
He Yushui stopped his movements, straightened his waist, shook his head and replied with a smile:
"Not yet, is Brother Ping'an hungry?"
"I'm going to cook you some lake mats and make up for them."
Jiang Ping'an waved his hand and said with a smile:
"Don't be, I'm going to cook a bowl of rice noodles to eat, so I'll come over and ask."
"Since you didn't eat it, then I'll cook an extra bowl."
"Okay, thank you, Brother Ping'an, I'm just a little hungry!" He Yushui smiled sweetly and replied.
At this time, He Yuzhu came out of the house and said loudly:
"Jiang Ping'an, cook one more bowl and let me taste it too."
"! My family is already short of food, and you want to starve me to death? Jiang Ping'an glared at him, not angry.
He Yuzhu shouted loudly: "You lack fart food!" ”
"If you don't eat fine grains, your stomach will be broken, and you won't be able to eat all the food!"
Jiang Ping'an spread his hands and said helplessly: "But I just like to eat fine grains, what should I do?" Not enough to eat! ”
"I also love to eat fine grains, or if you return the rain grain to me next month, I will also change the grain to eat!"
Jiang Ping'an frowned and said, "Silly Zhu, do you still have a little conscience and benevolence?" ”
"The rain saw that I was not used to eating coarse grains, so he cared for me, loved me, and gave me her grain for fine grains."
"What about you? If you don't have love, don't say it, but you have to block it, your conscience has been eaten by dogs? ”
"Not only that, but you still have to eat my family's food, don't you have such a bad mind?"
He Yushui followed and said: "Silly brother, you are too unloving!" ”
"Brother Ping'an works so hard in the countryside, can't you help him more?"
"What do you think he's lost now? It is to eat more fine grains to replenish it. ”
"If you don't help, don't say anything, you still have to eat his food, you are so ruthless!"
He Yuzhu glared and asked, "Then why did you go to his house for dinner?" ”
"Sister Yushui is different, she helped me wash my clothes." Jiang Ping'an smiled.
He Yushui nodded again and again, smiled at Jiang Ping'an, turned around and glared at He Yuzhu and said:
"I helped Brother Ping'an do his laundry, so he invited me to eat rice noodles."
"You didn't help him, and you don't lack this stutter, why do you want to take advantage of him?"
At this time, Yi Zhonghai, who was in the opposite room, walked out and said solemnly to He Yuzhu:
"Silly Zhu, when did you learn the habit of taking advantage of others at every turn?"
"I heard it just now, and the rain helped Ping An wash his clothes, so Ping An invited him to dinner."
"This is the mutual help between neighbors, and it is the harmonious and warm side of our yard."
"But it's good for you, if you open your mouth, you will eat and drink for nothing, we don't advocate this in our yard!"
He Yuzhu blinked his eyes, looked at Yi Zhonghai, He Yushui, and Jiang Ping'an blankly, and spared his head.
"This ...... Am I really wrong? He muttered to himself.
"That's not right, then why can Jiang Ping'an eat my family's grain?"
"He ate the ration of rainwater, is it wrong for me to eat a bowl of rice noodles from his house?"
——————————
He Yuzhu finally returned to the house in ashes.
Yi Zhonghai's face eased, turned around and asked Jiang Ping'an:
"Ping, the salary will be closed in a few days, is there enough food to eat?"
"Uncle Yi, some are not enough to eat." Jiang Ping'an sighed and said.
Yi Zhonghai pondered for a moment and said, "Although you don't like to eat coarse grains. ”
"But my family only has coarse grain, why don't you carry a few catties in the past to respond to emergencies?"
"Thank you, uncle, I'll be thrifty and grit my teeth for a few days!" Jiang Ping'an said with a touched face.
"Anyway, I haven't been to the countryside for the past few days, so it's okay to eat less."
"I can't be too selfish and patronize myself."
"You gave me food, and you and Aunt Yi are going to starve."
"What a good boy! It's okay, it's okay for me and your aunt to eat less. Yi Zhonghai was pleased.
Jiang Ping'an hesitated, nodded and said:
"Then thank you, uncle, I have a big stomach and I really want to be full."
"By the way, a few days ago, a leader gave me a pound of rice noodles, and I was about to cook it!"
"I'll cook a bowl for you and your aunt later, but don't refuse!"
"If you don't want to be hungry, just taste it!"
The corners of Yi Zhonghai's mouth hooked, nodded and smiled:
"Well, it just so happens that I didn't have breakfast with your aunt."
He helped Jiang Ping'an, not for stuttering, but mainly for this filial piety.
Compared with He Yuzhu, Jiang Ping'an's child will come to trouble.
He will send some small east and west from time to time, which makes people feel comforted.
This is also why, when He Yuzhu and Jiang Ping'an quarrel, he will be devoted to Jiang Ping'an.
Jiang Ping'an is right, people will have selfishness.
No matter how strict a person is, he has selfish intentions.
Jiang Ping'an said yes when he saw the answer, and said with a smile:
"That's good, Uncle Yi didn't treat me as an outsider."
"Haha, you kid!" Yi Zhonghai laughed heartily, pointed at Jiang Ping'an, and turned around to go back to the house.
Jiang Ping'an smiled, turned to He Yushui:
"Rain, I'll go back and soak the rice noodles in hot water first."
"Wait for you to come over and put it in the pot, it will be ready to cook in no time."
As he spoke, he looked left and right, leaned forward and whispered:
"When the time comes, you can help fry a few eggs."
"Hehe, the rice noodles are even more delicious!"
"Uh-huh, shh......h Brother Ping An is so good to me! ”
He Yushui blinked his eyes, swallowed his saliva, and pursed his lips and smiled.
Jiang Ping'an smiled, turned around and went back to the front yard house, took four or two meters of noodles, and soaked them in warm water.
The rice noodles produced in the space, after one or two dry powders are foamed, there are three or two.
After four taels are fired, there will be one pound and two taels.
When the time comes, boil four bowls, three taels per bowl, and add an egg, just right.
As for why he didn't bring He Yuzhu with him, because this kid usually brought leftovers, he didn't call him to eat.
Unless there is something to ask for, he is very enthusiastic.
Having said that, He Yuzhu's popularity in the courtyard is really poor.
In the original book, he is the main character, but he has a poor mouth and stinks, fights, steals, smashes people's glasses, and so on.
Even at the beginning of the New Year, there were a few brothers and sisters with a stick terrier, and every family knelt on the ground and kowtowed to ask for red envelopes, and cursed others if they didn't give it.
I have done a lot of things that lack virtue and smoke.
Under normal circumstances, a lawless man like him would have been beaten to death.
Why did Xu Damao end up? It's the stupid pillar that kicked him in the crotch!
As long as you are a person, you know the dangers of kicking your crotch!
Jiang Ping'an didn't believe that He Yuzhu didn't know, which showed how vicious his mind was.
As for the unintentional mistake?
Once or twice it can be said that it is unintentional, and often like this, it is intentional.
After soaking the rice noodles, Jiang Ping'an took another basket and put ten eggs in it.
When the rain comes, fry four, one in each bowl.
After a while, the water boiled.
Jiang Ping'an saw that He Yushui hadn't come yet, so he filled the thermos bottle and added some cold water to the pot to boil.
At this time, Xu Damao stood outside the door with his head stretched out and looked inside.
Jiang Ping'an frowned and said, "What are you looking at?" Do you want to eat it too? ”
"Well, Eko and I haven't had breakfast yet!" Xu Damao nodded and smiled.
Jiang Ping'an hesitated, nodded and said:
"Okay, I often eat your family, I'll invite you and Sister Xiao'e to have a meal today."
"Okay, you kid is interesting enough, then I'll go back and talk to Ezi first."
Xu Damao nodded and said a word, and left happily.
Jiang Ping'an smiled, and took out two taels of dry powder into the basin of soaked rice noodles and added them.
After the water boiled again, before He Yushui came, Jiang Ping'an went to the middle courtyard to call her.
"Rain, take a break first, eat and then wash."
"Huh! I'm coming! ”
He Yushui answered, washed his hands in the water a few times, and trotted over while rubbing his body dry.
Back in the house, Jiang Ping'an pointed to the basin of soaked rice noodles and said:
"Six bowls of rice noodles here should be enough, you fry six more eggs, add one to each bowl."
"Isn't it four bowls? How did it become six bowls? He Yushui wondered.
Jiang Ping'an said with a smile: "Let Xu Damao, this kid watch, can't you invite him and Sister Xiao'e to eat a bowl each?" ”
"Oh, then I'll fry the eggs first, and the rice will be ready soon." He Yushui nodded and began to get busy.
After a while, six bowls of fragrant, spicy and refreshing spicy rice noodles were ready.
Jiang Ping'an found a wooden plate, put four bowls, and said to He Yushui:
"You eat first, I'll send these four bowls to the backyard and I'll be back soon."
"I'm not in a hurry, I'll eat together when you come back." He Yushui said with a smile.
Jiang Ping'an smiled and nodded, "It's okay, then you wait for me." ”
As he spoke, he walked straight to the middle courtyard with a plate containing four bowls of rice noodles.
When they came to Yi Zhonghai's house, the two were chatting.
"Uncle Yi, the rice noodles are ready, I'll give you a taste." Jiang Ping'an stepped forward and said.
"It's spicy, and I don't know if you eat it or not."
Aunt Yi glanced at it, stepped forward and took a bowl, handed it to Yi Zhonghai, and said with a smile:
"It's spicy, you have to eat something delicious in winter!"
"Yo, there are still eggs, you take the eggs back and eat them yourself, we are too old to eat this."
Jiang Ping'an said: "Hey, I have my own, so don't be polite!" ”
Yi Zhonghai took the bowl, nodded and smiled: "This is a safe heart, let's not shirk!" ”
"Uncle Yi is right, if you are polite, you will treat me as an outsider." Jiang Ping'an smiled.
Aunt Yi smiled: "Okay, we are not polite, you send it, we will eat." ”
Yi Zhonghai interjected and asked, "What are the other two bowls?" ”
"For Xu Damao and Sister Xiao'e." Jiang Ping'an said with a smile.
"Their family often invites me to dinner, and I can't go back to him once?"
Yi Zhonghai nodded and smiled: "This is called courtesy, and that's how it should be." ”
"Okay, then you eat slowly, and wait for the rain to come and collect the bowl." Jiang Ping'an said a word, said goodbye and left.
When she came to Xu Damao's house, Lou Xiao'e was about to go out.
"Sister Xiao'e, where are you going?" Jiang Ping'an asked with a smile.
Lou Xiao'e smiled sweetly and said, "I saw that you didn't believe it for a long time, and I was about to go over and have a look!" ”
——————————
Eat spicy rice noodles in winter.
Spicy and enjoyable, warm and satisfying, warm heart and stomach!
The aroma is tangy, and the steaming spicy rice noodles are full of color and flavor.
Take a sip, the spicy and fresh fragrance goes straight to the brain, and after eating, it makes people sweat profusely and the whole body is transparent.
The whole person is warm!
"Comfortable!" He Yushui put down the bowl quickly, lazily didn't want to move, and there were a few small beads of sweat on Qiong's nose.
Jiang Ping'an lit a cigarette, took a puff, and said with a smile:
"Later, you go to Uncle Yi and Xu Damao's house, and take back the bowl by the way."
"Well, wait, I don't think they'll finish it that soon." He Yushui pursed his lips and smiled.
As she spoke, she looked around the room a few times and asked curiously, "Is this room cleaned by Yan Jiedi?" ”
"yes, tell her and clean it for me every other day." Jiang Ping'an nodded back.
He Yushui smiled and said, "I'll just say it, give her another chance, yes!" ”
"She's such an adult, it's still no problem to help with cleaning."
The two chatted for a while, and when the time was almost up, He Yushui went to collect the dishes.
With her here, Jiang Ping'an doesn't have to do anything at home, comfortable!
He Yushui took back the bowl, cleaned it well, and went back to the middle yard to wash clothes.
Jiang Ping'an had nothing to do, so he took out his study notes from the previous days and reviewed them.
In these years, it doesn't hurt to go online at every turn, and to memorize these things.
"Unite true friends to attack real enemies."
"There is only one way to eliminate war, and that is to use war against war."
"Think about the worst possible situation, and never lose."
“……”
Time passed slowly.
The sun rises, and the sunlight shines through the window and shines on the desk.
The courtyard was quiet, cold and smoky.
The closer we get to the end of the day, the less food will be left for every household.
Most of the residents have stopped eating breakfast.
Closed on Sundays, in order to save food, only one meal a day, there are also many people.
The drought has lasted for more than a year, and people do not know when it will end.
It's better to have food stamps, you can go to the market to find some sweet potatoes, potatoes, yam balls and other grains to supplement the rations.
If you don't have food stamps, you can only starve.
In this season, it is difficult to dig even a single wild vegetable.
The sound of footsteps came, and Jiang Ping'an looked up.
I saw Yan Jiedi coming over with a wooden bucket in one hand and a rag in the other.
"Brother Ping'an, I'm here to clean your room." Yan Xie Di pursed her lips and said with a smile.
Jiang Ping'an nodded and beckoned to her.
After Yan Jiedi approached, he asked softly, "You didn't eat in the morning, did you?" ”
"Well, no!" Yan Xie Di nodded lightly.
Jiang Ping'an smiled and ordered, "Ah...... Mouth! ”
Yan Xie Di pursed her lips and smiled, rolling her eyes, but still opened her small mouth.
A pea-sized maltose was thrown into her mouth by Jiang Ping'an, sweet and silky, which made people feel happy.
"Thank you, Brother Ping'an!" Yan Xie Di said with a smile.
Jiang Ping'an put away his notes, got up and said:
"Thanks, you clean the room first, and I'll go for a walk in the yard."
Coming out of the room, Jiang Ping'an walked to the middle courtyard and saw He Yushui drying clothes.
Jiang Ping'an nodded with satisfaction, this girl washed his clothes, and she did her best to wash her own clothes.
Just as she was about to praise her, suddenly there was a commotion in the outer courtyard, as well as Jia Zhang's cursing.
"Dead open! Die out! Get out of the way! ”
"I told you to get out of the way, you're going to die!"
"Why don't you die? And is there any empathy? ”
“……”
Jiang Ping'an heard Jia Zhang's scolding and screaming, and secretly said that the courtyard was lively again.
Jia Zhang's curses spread far and wide.
Jia Dongxu was the first to come out of the house, glanced at Jiang Ping'an, and ran straight to the front yard.
Then He Yuzhu, Yi Zhonghai, Xu Damao and Lou Xiao'e, and the two bangs came out one after another.
There were also other residents in the courtyard who also heard the sound and came out to see the excitement.
"First uncle, second uncle, Sister Xiao'e......" Jiang Ping'an greeted them one by one.
Yi Zhonghai stepped forward and asked, "Is this Jia Zhang's return?" ”
"Well, in the front yard, I'm going out to see." Jiang Ping'an said.
Yi Zhonghai frowned, hesitated, and walked towards the front yard.
The others also followed, wanting to see why Jia Zhang was cursing in the front yard but not going home.
When he came to the front yard, Jiang Ping'an almost didn't laugh out loud when he saw Jia Zhang's and the stick terrier.
I saw the two of them sitting weakly
At the gate, unkempt and ragged, like a flower child.
Jia Zhang, who was originally fat-headed, big-eared, white and chubby, and the stick terrier, each lost at least ten pounds.
Their clothes were visibly loose.
Other than that, they all had yellow faces, blue and chapped lips, became a little wooden, and their eyes were glazed.
Even so, Jia Zhang's broken mouth is still vicious, and it is still very ugly and harsh when scolding people.
The people around were watching the excitement, and no one stepped forward to care about the greetings.
Only Jia Dongxu went over to help Jia Zhang's up, but he couldn't pull a few handfuls, but he couldn't pull them.
In the final analysis, no matter how thin Jia Zhang is, her foundation is still there, and she is still very heavy.
Since Jia Dongxu lost all his money tickets, it is estimated that he has rarely eaten enough, so he naturally has no strength and can't work hard.
Jia Zhang also remembered it, but she had the strength to scold, but she didn't have the strength to stand up.
Looking at it like that, I was hungry for several meals.
As for how he came back here, it is estimated that he also held on to his breath, and when he arrived at the gate of the courtyard, the anger disappeared.
One of the two remembered it, and the other pulled hard, just tossing there, but they didn't see the effect for half a day.
The people around looked frowning and laughing, but no one stepped forward to help.
Jia Zhang's dead old woman is a mad dog, catching and biting whomever she wants.
It's okay if you don't help, but once you help, it's thankless.
"Are you blind? Didn't you see that Dongxu and I had no strength? Can't come over and help? ”
Look, Jia Zhang's scolded again.
When everyone heard the scolding, not only did they not step forward to help, but they also subconsciously retreated, for fear of getting into trouble.
Yi Zhonghai hesitated, glanced at He Yuzhu, and then at Jiang Ping'an.
After thinking about it, he said to He Yuzhu: "Silly Zhu, you go and take a hand!" ”
"I don't do it, I fell out with the Jia family not long ago, and I'm too lazy to put a cold ass with a hot face, thankless!"
He Yuzhu shook his head again and again, and took a few steps back.
Yi Zhonghai frowned and turned his head to look at Jiang Ping'an.
Jiang Ping'an nodded, walked a few steps with his hands, came to Jia Zhang's face, smiled and whispered:
"Jia Zhang, you promised to give me two new pairs of shoes, don't forget!"
"You!" Jia Zhang's eyes widened suddenly, pointing at Jiang Ping'an, he didn't come up in one breath, and fainted directly.
Jia Dongxu panicked and shouted, "Mom! Mom, what's wrong with you? Mom......"
"Don't howl, she's fine, just fainted, slap her a few times, and she will wake up!"
Jiang Ping'an pursed his mouth and reminded.
Jia Dongxu was stunned.
Looking at Jia Zhang's fat face stained with dirt, he stretched out his slap and couldn't beat it anymore.
