Qin Huairu walked in the alley, and smelled a strong smell of meat.

In these years, every family is living a tight life, and the supply of meat is limited, and the price is not cheap, who is willing to eat meat every day.

Following the fragrance all the way, I came to the yard where my house was.

Qin Huairu stepped over the door curiously, and saw that under the shed outside the east wing on the right hand, on the side of the proposed stove, Wang Chong, who was wearing an apron, was humming an unknown song in his mouth, holding a spatula in one hand and a pot in the other, constantly stir-frying, and the rich aroma of meat was emanating from Wang Chong's pot.

"Brother Wang, cooking!"

Facing Qin Huairu's initiative to say hello, Wang Chong turned his head and replied with a smile: "Sister Qin, you're back!" ”

Then he turned around and continued to stir up, without any intention of entanglement with Qin Huairu.

Seeing this, Qin Huairu's eyes flashed slightly, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

"Brother Wang Chong, it's so fragrant!"

As soon as Qin Huairu walked on the front foot, He Yushui arrived on the back foot.

Smelling the rich aroma of meat, I couldn't help but swallow my saliva.

"Your craftsmanship is probably not worse than my brother."

Wang Zhong smiled and said: "I will deal with it, and I can't compare with Brother Zhu." ”

"Why are you the only one, your brother?"

It stands to reason that the canteen should get off work earlier than other employees, unless the leader asks the stupid pillar to stay and make a small stove.

"There is a reception in the factory today, and my brother estimates that he will not be able to come back until later."

Sure enough, there was a reception.

After a few pleasantries, the rain was gone, and the people in the courtyard came back one after another, and after more than an hour, the sky had already darkened, and the stupid pillar came back from outside slowly with his hands behind his back, humming a little song, and slowly came back from outside, but he did not carry a net lunch box in his hand.

Since Wang Zhong reminded him last time, Silly Zhu hasn't brought a lunch box home for a while.

Don't look at other people's stupid pillars screaming, he himself doesn't feel that it's wrong, but if anyone really thinks this kid is stupid, it will suffer a big loss.

Don't you see, in the original play, with Xu Damao, who is full of wits and courage, you come and go without falling behind in the slightest, how stupid can you be?

Wang Chong was serving the vegetables he planted in the courtyard, and when he saw Silly Zhu coming in, he joked: "Brother Zhu, is this picking up money?" ”

Silly Zhu smiled: "I want to pick up the money, how can I have that opportunity." ”

Silly Zhu has also learned well.,Isn't the security department strict recently.,Then don't you take it home.,Eat in the cafeteria.,Come back when you're full.,As for those people below.,Usually eat more when you eat and eat.,Eat less yourself.,Packed home with lunch boxes at night abound.,People buy it back with their own tickets.,How to deal with the security department has no right to care.。

It's the little bit of food left over from the small stove, it's really not good to bring it back recently, and the stupid pillar is not blind, and there are a lot more people patrolling and standing guard at the factory gate recently than usual, as Wang Zhong said, if he still commits a crime against the wind at this time, it's not the chicken that stretches his neck over to give people a warning!

"Your dish is serving well, and it's growing well."

"No, I take care of them like my own children."

"Gai Ming'er waits for the fruit, get a meal for my brother?" Silly Zhu also joked.

"It's done!"

As he spoke, Silly Zhu approached Wang Zhong and whispered, "Do you know what Liu Lan heard when he was serving the food today?" ”

"Hear what?" Wang Zhong asked curiously.

Silly Zhu looked around, lowered his voice and said: "This is not the big leader, it is for the big leader to stand in front, wait for a few days, the direct leaders of our rolling mill will come over, that is a stomp on the foot, not to mention our rolling mill, it is the entire Beiping City, it is estimated that the big man will be shocked." ”

"You kid is really unlucky, I heard that in addition to the inspection, the big leader will also meet you, the biggest hero, I guess the factory leader should call you over and give you a breath."

"A good thing indeed." Wang nodded and said, but there was no surprise that Silly Zhu expected.

Seeing that the sky was getting darker and darker, Wang Chong moved the freshly made chaise longue out of the house, placed a high table next to it, held a dark purple sand teapot, leaned on the chaise longue, closed his eyes, and enjoyed the cool breeze of the early summer night.

Mosquitoes have long been infested, but they can't get close to Wang Chong, just flew to the side of Wang Chong's three feet, they were shot down by a strong wind from nowhere, and there were already more than a dozen mosquito corpses lying around the chaise longue.

In the copy of "The World", Zhou Bingkun, who was incarnated by Wang Chong, stayed in Beiping for several years, and when he was in "Fanghua", he accompanied He Xiaoping to live in Beiping for decades.

Decades of graceful years have witnessed the rise and fall of Beiping City, but in Beiping City in the 60s, Wang Chong really saw it for the first time.

"Technician Wang, take advantage of the coolness!" An unfamiliar female voice woke Wang Chong out of his trance.

Wang Zhong replied: "What about the cold, have you eaten?" ”

"Just ate it!" Yu Li smiled and looked at the hedge around Wang Zhong and him, and a little different color flashed in her eyes: "Technician Wang, did you tie this fence yourself?" ”

"I'm fooling around with nothing to do." Wang Zhong replied with a smile.

Yu Li said: "It's so good-looking, what is this?" ”

Not to mention Yu Li, an authentic city girl, even in the countryside, some young people may not be able to recognize all the seedlings.

"Cucumbers, beans, peppers, tomatoes, and a pot of cabbage over there." Wang Zhong pointed to the big square flower pot in the corner.

It is said to be a flower pot, but in fact it is just a large rattan frame, which is filled with soil.

Yu Li nodded and didn't ask any more.

While speaking, Yan Jiecheng also walked in with two nets: "Daughter-in-law, why don't you enter the house?" ”

"Say hello to Technician Wang." Yu Li said.

"Yo! Technician Wang, I'm sorry, it's too dark, I didn't look at you! ”

"It's okay, you two are busy with your business!" Wang Zhong shook the fan and closed his eyes again.

"Uncle Wang!" Not long after Wang Chong closed his eyes, he was woken up again.

"Terrier?" Looking at the stick terrier with his two younger sisters, Wang Zhong asked suspiciously, "Is there something wrong with me?" ”

The stick terrier said: "Uncle Wang, I heard that your salary is very high?" ”

"It's done!" Wang Chongdao.

The stick terrier said: "Uncle Wang, you live in such a big house alone, isn't it too troublesome to clean up the house every day?" ”

Wang Zhong said: "What the hell is your kid up the hell with your idea?" ”

The stick terrier didn't hide it, and said directly: "Uncle Wang, why don't you hire me to help you clean up the house!" ”

"You?"

Wang Chong looked at the ten-year-old appearance, and the size was only up to the stick stalk on his waist, and he couldn't help but smile and said: "It's almost the same for your mother, you still forget it, you are too young, let's concentrate on studying." ”

"Uncle Wang, I'm very capable." The stick terrier didn't want to give up: "Xiaodang can also help." ”

Huaihua is only three years old, and what she says is not very neat, it is good not to add to the chaos, but she is a small person, and she is also six years old, almost to the age of going to school.

"Clean up the house and forget it." Wang Zhong pointed to the vegetables planted next to him and said, "See if you have these dishes of mine!" ”

"Uh-huh!" The Terrier nodded immediately.

"There is a watering can under the wall, water once every five days, apply fertilizer once a month, water two pots at a time, and give you five cents a month, how about it?"

"Five cents?" The eyes of the stick terrier immediately lit up, and Xiaodang and the Huaihua sisters also excitedly tugged at the corners of their brother's clothes.

"That's right!" Wang Chong said: "If this dish grows well in the end, I will reward the three of you with a slice of sauced beef." ”

"Sauced beef?" The three brothers and sisters of the stick terrier swallowed their saliva together.

"Okay, I'll take this job!" The stick terrier immediately patted his chest.

"Tomorrow night after school, you can come over and start watering, remember, once every five days!"

"How to apply fertilizer?" The Stick Terrier asked.

"Ming'er, come over and I'll teach you later."

The stick terrier said: "Good! Let's talk about it, whoever liars is a puppy. ”

Wang Zhong said: "It's up to you!" ”

The stick terrier happily took his two sisters home, and as soon as he entered the house, he couldn't wait to tell his mother Qin Huairu, who was sitting in front of the sewing machine, and his grandmother Jia Zhang, who was collecting the soles of his shoes.

"Wang Zhong asked you to water and fertilize those vegetables at his door? Giving you five cents a month? Jia Zhang was very surprised: "And this good thing? ”

Qin Huairu was afraid that she had heard it wrong, so she pulled her son to confirm again: "Stick terrier, what you said is true?" ”

Five cents is really not much, but you can buy ten eggs, cut half a catty of meat, you can buy a few catties of white flour, if you change it to miscellaneous grains, it will be more, if you save a little, it is enough for the family to eat for two days.

"At first, I wanted to clean up the house for Uncle Wang, but Uncle Wang thought I was too young, and said that my mother went to clean up the house for him, so I could concentrate on studying."

The speaker was unintentional, the listener was intentional, Qin Huairu and Jia Zhang looked up at each other in unison.

"Don't go!" Before Qin Huairu could say anything, Jia Zhang's said categorically.

"Mom!" Qin Huairu shouted anxiously.

"It's useless to call Mom, I said I wasn't allowed to go!" Jia Zhang's is extraordinarily tough.

Qin Huairu said: "Then I usually clean up the house for Silly Zhu and help him wash his clothes, why can't Wang Chong, everyone Wang Chong is willing to give the stick terrier to start work, what are the conditions of our family, don't you know what?"

If I go and help him clean up the house, I don't say three or five yuan a month, even if it's only one or two yuan, it's still an income. ”

"If I say I can't go, I won't go!" Jia Zhang's attitude is still tough.

Qin Huairu explained bitterly: "Mom, I am also for the good of our family, the stick terrier is now the time to grow his body, Xiaodang and Huaihua are still young, if the family can make more entries, life can be better, and it will not be like now, pulling famine every month." ”

"Don't tell me this, I say you can't go, you don't go." Jia Zhang's did not waver at all.

"Mom!" Qin Huairu looked at her mother-in-law puzzled: "Why the hell?" ”

Jia Zhang glanced at his grandson's stick terrier, and his eyes became more and more determined: "There is no reason, I said that I was not allowed to go, but I was not allowed to go." ”

Qin Huairu didn't say anything more, picked up Xiaohuahua, pulled Xiaodang back to the back room, took care of the two daughters to wash, and urged them to go to sleep on the kang.

The next day, Wang Chong rode a bicycle carrying the rain just out of the alley where the courtyard was located, and Qin Huairu, who had been waiting at the entrance of the alley for a long time, was about to stop Wang Chong, but saw He Yushui sitting behind Wang Chong's car, but he couldn't say anything when he got to his mouth.

At lunchtime, He Yushui and Yu Haitang also stayed by Wang Chong's side, and they didn't give Qin Huairu a chance to get close at all.

It wasn't until he got off work in the evening that Qin Huairu blocked Wang Chong in the middle of the road.

"Sister Qin? Is there something wrong? Wang Zhong stopped the bicycle, looked at Qin Huairu and asked.

Although Qin Huairu is wearing the most common overalls, it is difficult to hide her proud figure, coupled with her delicate face and mature charm, she usually becomes the talk of the workers in the factory, and she is not less taken advantage of by people like their workshop director and Xu Damao.

There is such a plot in the original play, Qin Huairu and Xu Damao lined up to eat one after the other, Xu Damao put his hands on Qin Huairu's shoulders, and the whole person was close to Qin Huairu from behind, and also made an agreement to meet the white-flour steamed buns and the warehouse.

Not to mention the widow's right and wrong! Especially this kind of beautiful widow who pulls three children and a mother-in-law alone, and has a low salary.

Qin Huairu was a little squirming, she didn't know how to speak, she thought about it, and still used her son as the opening remark: "Thank you for the stick terrier!" ”

Wang Zhong smiled and said: "Sister Qin, don't be polite, I'm too lazy to get it myself, besides, it's not a matter of one or two days, it's not good to let the stick terrier help me!" ”

"It's just watering, what can it cost?" Qin Huairu: "Sister knows, you saw that we were having a difficult time, so you pulled us along, and your favor is remembered by my sister." ”

Qin Huairu is not a little white, Jia Dongxu has been gone for almost three years, she is a widow, pulling several children, even if she was really a little white at the beginning, now she is also dyed black by the big dye vat of reality.

Wang Chongdao: "Sister Qin, it's really nothing, you don't have to be so polite, if you really feel sorry for it, just help the stick terrier take care of those dishes for me." ”

"Don't worry, my sister is from the countryside, and she grew up in the field when she was young, so I will help you take care of those dishes!"

"Sister Qin, I'm sure I'll rest assured." Wang Zhong said with a smile.

Qin Huairu changed his voice and said hesitantly: "It's just that there is another matter······

"Sister Qin, you just have to say what you want, why are you still hiding it with me." Wang Chong said with a complaining face.

Qin Huairu turned his heart sideways and said straightforwardly: "It's you who told the stick terrier to let me clean up the house for you!" ”

Wang Chong said: "What, Sister Qin, do you really want to help me clean up the house?" ”

"Don't worry, my sister is a good hand at cleaning up the house, and she also has the ······ to do laundry."

"That's it, clean up once a day, three yuan a month, but my requirements are not low, if Sister Qin is ·······"

"I do!" Without waiting for Wang Zhong to finish speaking, Qin Huairu couldn't wait to say.

"Sister Qin, let's talk about the ugly things first, before I have a partner, the house can be cleaned up for you, and when I find a partner, I won't trouble you, I hope you can understand."

"Sister understands, understands!"

"I'm used to getting up early, I get up at four o'clock every day, and go out to work at half past seven, Sister Qin, you take care of the time yourself, don't delay."

"Don't worry, there will be no delay!" Qin Huairu was happy, so she cleaned up the house, and she could earn three more yuan a month, although three yuan was not much, but it was better than nothing, if there was no Wang Zhong, Qin Huairu would have no place to earn these three yuan.
