Chapter 228: Tell Shao'an about his mother-in-law

The preciousness of white sugar in this era cannot be overstated.

As early as ten years ago, it was officially regarded as one of the war materials, and its status was equal to cotton, grain, fuel oil, etc. Now there are many types of tickets about sugar on the market, such as planned supply of sugar tickets, reward sugar tickets, special sugar tickets, health care sugar tickets, military sugar tickets, special holiday sugar tickets, fixed sugar tickets, sugar purchase certificates, etc.

The more scarce, the more precious.

The members store a little sugar at home, and they are usually reluctant to use it. Only when guests come will a bowl of white sugar water be poured.

The broken babies in ten miles and eight villages, if they can lick a mouthful of sugar, they feel that it is delicious in the world.

Wang Manyin had heard someone tell a funny thing before. There is a village cadre stationed in the team to explain to the members of the "how fast and good the province to build XXXX".

This person talked about the benefits of XXXX on the stage for a long time, and because it was more abstract, the group of people below were still confused.

In the end, the officer had an idea and used a vivid example to illustrate: "As long as we enter XX, when the time comes, we will eat white buns and dip them in sugar!" ”

Now, everyone understands.

Therefore, when Wang Manyin goes to his father-in-law's house, he usually brings some white sugar, so that they can drink it at any time. When he was selling fish in Mijia Town a few years ago, he deliberately asked for a few more sugar tickets from Li Ping, so there was no shortage of them at home for the time being.

When passing near the old cemetery behind the village, the orchid immediately spat three mouthfuls on her hand, nodded it on the forehead of the small stone, and muttered a few words in her mouth.

Wang Manyin didn't say anything, he was used to it...... This is now the routine operation of rural people. Although there are various prohibitions, when passing through some special places, people will still follow the old customs, as long as they are not seen by outsiders.

But Xiaoshi didn't know what his mother was doing, so he thought he was playing with him, and he couldn't stop giggling.

Immediately, the little one stretched out his little hand again and leaned over for his father to hug.

Wang Manyin had no choice but to put things on the ground and stretched out his hand to grab them.

Xiaoshi was born less than five months ago, and because he is not lacking in nutrition, his body is obviously much stronger than that of children of the same age. Especially when he was curious about the outside world, he was not at ease in his arms, constantly turning his head to look around, sometimes putting his little hands in his mouth, chirping and sucking.

Occasionally, I don't know what I see, but I am more excited and constantly jumping, and I seem to be very active.

Shaoping and Lan Xiang knew from their eldest brother that their brother-in-law's family was coming, and after breakfast, they stood on the sidelines and watched.

At this moment, they saw the figure on the dirt road and immediately hurried to meet it.

"Sister, brother-in-law, you're here!" Be less steady and heavier, and greet with a smile when you get closer.

Lan Xiang rushed directly to the little nephew and clapped her hands to hug her.

As a result, Xiaoshi didn't give face at all, and turned his head to hide in Wang Manyin's arms.

It is rare that the old father-in-law did not go to work today, but dried the freshly cleaned corn husks on the sidelines.

These were sent by Wang Manyin not long ago, and they belong to the latest output of space.

Of course, according to him, he bought it from a single household in the mountains.

Corn on the Loess Plateau generally takes four months to mature, and the time is greatly shortened to almost three months.

The corn cob is nearly 30 centimeters long, and it is as gratifying as ever.

The newly planted corn of more than half an acre alone has a harvest of several hundred catties. However, Wang Manyin's family has already solved the problem of food and clothing, and no matter how much they have, they can't sell it outside, so they don't care much about the output.

The main corn husk, this can be taken to the old father-in-law's house for cash.

In order to make the corn husks look less fresh and clean, he deliberately buried them in a wet soil pit for a week.

Having said that, corn husk weaving changed a lot in the life of the old father-in-law's family.

In addition to the mother-in-law, plus the three Shao'an brothers and sisters are busy. Even when Orchid comes back from work at night, she will help make corn braids when she has time. Four or five people do it, and the speed is naturally not slow after they are proficient, and now they basically make a carpet in ten days.

In three months, he has earned nearly 60 yuan, which is more than the dividends of his father-in-law's family last year.

The old lady was originally going to buy corn husk money for Wang Manyin. After being rejected several times, she was very upset, and asked Shao'an to buy a few feet of cloth from the supply and marketing cooperative, and made two sets of clothes for her grandson.

If you want to talk about small stones, it is definitely a baby bump for the two of them.

Now that the old man Sun Yuhou saw the child, his face was also happy. He hurriedly washed his hands, then took it and held it high in his arms.

Immediately, Old Man Sun let the little stone ride around his neck again.

As a result, just two minutes later, the little guy peed on his neck.

"Good pee, good pee......" The old man grinned, still happy.

Seeing that his daughter is living a good life, Sun Yuhou and his family are naturally satisfied with Wang Manyin.

Don't talk about them, now whoever mentions his son-in-law in the village will have to give a thumbs up, even Qua Lanhua's life is good.

With my own family, there are not so many things that are vain.

After handing over the child to Shaoping to hug, Wang Manyin and Orchid also helped clean the corn husks.

The mother-in-law carried her things into the house to prepare lunch.

Since digging two new kilns at home, the place has become much more spacious, and Shaoping and Lanxiang don't have to go to other people's houses at night to spend the night.

The news of Sun Yuting and his family is very sensitive, and I don't know where they learned about the orchid and their return to their parents' house today.

Near noon, the two of them came to the door on time with their children.

In this regard, the adults of the Sun family are used to it.

Although Shaoping and Lanxiang were dissatisfied, they could only do nothing.

To put it bluntly, the problem is mainly with the old father-in-law.

It was he who brought up his younger brother single-handedly, and he used to treat him as half a son, and he was used to giving.

Sun Yuting naturally enjoyed this kind of treatment, thinking that it was natural for his brother to do anything for him. So when there was no food at home, he came to borrow it with a cloth bag, and he didn't pay it back nine times out of ten. Or a few people in the family rub the rice, even eat and take.

Even, the tobacco leaves he smoked also needed Sun Yuhou to help provide.

After the package production arrived at the household, Sun Yuting lost the production team to rely on, and asked his brother to help with farm work.

For these things, of course, Wang Manyin can't look down on them.

But his heart is the same as Spiegel, in the final analysis, this is the old father-in-law's family matter. As a son-in-law, it's not easy to point fingers at will.

In addition, Shao'an can also be the master of the house.

Sun Yuting and his family will no longer be as careless as before, and they usually come over to eat.

As for the two children behind them, unkempt, wearing tattered clothes and barefoot, they looked very poignant.

Look at Shaoping and Lanxiang again, although the clothes have a lot of patches, at least they are clean.

Wang Manyin shook his head in his heart.

There is no way, when you meet such parents, your children will also suffer.

He was not prejudiced against Sun Yuting's two daughters. Judging from the original book, the two girls are completely different from their parents, but have inherited the hard-working tenacity of the Sun family.

This seems to be the commonality of the women of the Sun family.

At noon, there were more than a dozen people in the family, and Liu Erni simply made the whole duck, mixed it with potato vermicelli, and stewed a big pot.

When eating, one table could not be sitting, but now the home is spacious, and men and women are simply divided into two tables.

Shao'an originally wanted to take the wine, but Wang Manyin stopped him.

After eating a few pieces of duck meat, He Fengying took the initiative to provoke the topic: "Brother, sister-in-law, we have something to do today." Now that Shao'an is not young, it's time to find an aunt. My mother's family has a distant niece who is good-looking and works diligently at home and abroad. But there is one thing, that is, this niece and her mother died early, and her father raised her. When I came home last year, her dad asked me to help find someone. If you have a good character, you don't need to give money...... I feel like a good match for Shao'an. ”

Without waiting for Liu Erni to speak, Sun Yuhou immediately moved his mind.

"That's good, go back and write to ask your mother's family, see if they are looking for a good mother-in-law...... If you don't find a good one, you'll see it, and we should give the money and money, and we can't treat it badly! ”

He just hugged his grandson, so he naturally wanted to hug his grandson.

Changing to the cowardice of the family in the previous two years, Sun Yuhou really didn't dare to think about it.

Now that his family has built a cave, Shao'an goes to work in the supply and marketing cooperative, and his aunt can earn a lot of money a month by doing some side jobs at home...... If this continues, the fat pig will be sold at the end of the year, and the foreign debt will almost be repaid.

In rural areas, many sixteen or seventeen-year-old offspring are already married and have children.

Shao'an is eighteen this year, nineteen years old, and it's time to think about lifelong events.

Even if he really wants money, he is not afraid. It's a big deal to ask my son-in-law and the people in the village to borrow some, and then pay it back slowly.

Wang Manyin knew that the niece in He Fengying's mouth should be He Xiulian...... This is also a good woman who works hard.

After getting married, she put all her body and mind on her husband. This friendship has touched countless people.

Of course, Runye is not bad.

Wang Manyin couldn't interject. After crossing into this world, he has changed too many things in the Sun family, and there is no rule that Shao'an and Xiulian must be together.

In the end, it depends on what the brother-in-law thinks. I'm really sure it's okay to help beat the side drum by myself.

"Dad, I'm still young, and I don't want to get married so early." Shao'an hesitated for a moment, and hurriedly said loudly.

Somehow, when the second mother talked about being a matchmaker, Tian Runye's figure immediately appeared in his mind.

One of the two teaches in the county seat, and the other goes to work in the supply and marketing cooperative, which is seventy or eighty miles apart. However, the contact between them has not been broken, and every half month or so, they always write a letter to communicate and talk about each other's lives.

When Runye comes back, he will also go to his home to chat with him.

However, before today, Shao'an felt that he treated Runye like a sister, and he had long been accustomed to the existence of the other party.

But just now, there was an indescribable taste in his heart, and the memory of the two became very clear.

They grew up playing together and later went to school together.

When he was hungry, Runye would always secretly give him dry food to eat.

There was a time when the patch on the back of Shao'an's pants bloomed and was ridiculed by his classmates. It was Runye who was holding the needle and thread to sew the patch.

At that time, Runye was only ten years old, and he didn't know how to do needlework at all, and the needles were pierced in his ass from time to time, and he screamed in pain.

Later, they went to the Shibijie Commune to go to the high school. A male classmate deliberately threw a basketball at Runye, and Shaoan immediately rushed over and hit the other party's nose bleeding. Runye wants to eat the red sour dates on the cliff ditch, and he will also climb up at risk......

At this moment, Shao'an had a hazy thought: how satisfied he would be if he could live with Runye for the rest of his life! I just don't know what Runye thinks.

In any case, he still decided to refuse to go on a blind date with other women as soon as possible, no matter how good the other party was.

There should be another chapter later......
