Chapter 302: Human Relations
After the special day of the third day of junior high school, the next thing is to visit relatives and friends, on the fourth day of the new year, Gao Hong wants to follow his parents to visit the New Year, called New Year's greetings, which is really a blind date.
Gao Mingcheng was not idle, he drove a tractor, took a lot of beauty and many jade couples, and went to the eldest sister's house in Shanfeng Village to pay New Year's greetings.
Many beautiful eldest sisters are called Duo Jin, and they married to Shanfeng Village a few years ago, Shanfeng Village is actually relatively close to Gaojia Village, but it is a straight line distance, if you are walking, you have to go around a long way.
The largest reservoir in Gaojia Village is shared with Shanfeng Village, and after crossing this reservoir and walking a little further, you will arrive at Shanfeng Village.
But Gao Mingcheng has a tractor, naturally there is no need to walk from the reservoir, although the reservoir has dried up this year, but the bottom of the reservoir is uneven, potholes, inconvenient to drive.
On the body of the tractor, there are three stools, everyone is wearing cotton clothes and cotton hats to sit on them, and there are some gifts piled up in the spare space.
This New Year's visit to the New Year's greetings, naturally there is no reason to be empty-handed.
Duoyu sat with her son in her arms, her son was five months old, but he was relatively thin and small, and he didn't look big, and at this time he was wrapped in a small quilt, revealing only a small face, looking curiously.
Many Mei lowered her head and teased the child, and said, "Second sister, is he willing to drink the milk powder I bought for Shi Shi last time?" I saw that he was smaller than the other children, and wanted him to eat some milk powder to make up for it. ”
Duoyu sighed and said with a sad face: "I don't have much milk, not enough for him to eat, but he refuses to give him milk powder!" Later, your brother simply fed him gruel to eat, and the porridge water on the top of the gruel was very thin, so as not to choke him. Now I am fed two meals of gruel during the day, and I don't cry so often at night. ”
Many beauties are helpless when they hear that their nephews refuse to eat milk powder.
Many jade's sons are named Xu Yan and their small names are stones, and they are quite delicate and cute, but they may not be enough in the womb, and many jades do not have much milk, so they are thin and small.
Gao Mingcheng was driving in front, but he also heard all the conversations in the back. Thanks to the fact that this little guy has a good aunt, he has received a lot of help from his aunt in his previous life, and as for this life, he may get more help.
But as long as a lot of beauty is not too much, Gao Mingcheng doesn't plan to meddle, relatives, that's it, they will always help each other, this is love.
In a short time, the tractor stopped at the door of many of Kim's houses.
The letter had already been handed before, and many of the Kim knew that the maiden sisters were coming, so they were ready early, and as soon as they saw the tractor arriving, they came to the door to greet them.
Many of the families that Jin married to were not very good, but they were better than many of Jin's own families, and her father was seriously ill at that time, and she was about to die, so she married in a hurry while her father was still alive, and by now, she has given birth to two sons.
It is worth mentioning that although they have been engaged in family planning in recent years, for some reason, they have not been very strict about this, and there are jobs in the city that are stricter, and they are basically only children, but those who do not have jobs have basically given birth to a second child, and this is still the case in the city, let alone in the countryside.
Since ancient times, farmland cultivation requires labor, and this labor only refers to men, if any family does not give birth to a son, it will be ridiculed as a desperate household, in some places where the atmosphere is not good, there will even be a thing of eating out of households.
Therefore, after the family planning policy began, each place is different, because the policy is dead, but the people in power are alive, and some places are more demonic and very strict, so many miserable things often happen, such as being eight months pregnant, and being forcibly arrested and miscarried, resulting in serious physical losses of pregnant women, and even two deaths.
But in some places, the grasp is not so strict, in some rural areas, even by default, if the first child is a daughter, you are allowed to have a second child, if the first child is a son, then you are not allowed to have a second child.
But here in Gaojia Village, when the policy is implemented on everyone, it becomes that regardless of men and women, you are allowed to have a second child, but after the second child, you have to notify the woman to have a sterilization, which is considered to have completed the task assigned above.
Because of this, Gao Mingcheng can only have two sons, and many jade will have another daughter in the future, as for many gold, this one is amazing, she will give birth to another son next year.
It is said that the family wanted a daughter, and deliberately hid in the mountains to give birth, but after being born, they were still sons, and the three sons looked very similar.
Being warmly welcomed into the hall and sat down, Gao Mingcheng looked up and saw that many of the Jin family still lived in old houses, adobe houses, with old newspapers and some wall calendars pasted on the walls.
There was a wooden table in the hall, and the table top was a little pitted, and it was actually an old object that had been used for many years. On the table are several kinds of fruits, including grapefruit, citrus and persimmons.
Pomelo and citrus are two of the trees that are grown by many of Kim's own fruits, and when the fruits are ripe in autumn, they are picked and stored in the chaff to be eaten until the New Year.
As for the persimmons, they are also homemade, the persimmons are not big, but the craftsmanship is not bad, and the frosting looks good.
This year is the first time Gao Mingcheng has come to visit the eldest sister's house after marriage, and he will naturally not be stingy with his shots, and sent a few catties of apples, a few catties of wind-blown meat, two cans of malt milk essence and two bottles of wine.
It was a formal gift, but in fact, many beauties took two sets of children's clothes and some dried kelp, dried salted fish, and other things.
This children's clothing is produced in Dong Feixia's workshop, using thick cotton cloth, filled with new cotton, and wearing it very thick and warm.
"Here, this is a new dress for you, take it and try it on." Many beautiful smiles handed over the new clothes, and the faces of the two children instantly showed a smile of surprise, one of them was five years old and the other was three years old, and they already knew beauty and ugliness.
"This ...... It's too expensive. Many Kim said excitedly and politely, but soon the two children pestered them to change their clothes.
After a while, both children were wearing new clothes, and when they wore them, they found that they were a little overgrown.
But this is something that many beauties do on purpose.
When people in the countryside wear clothes carefully, when buying clothes for their children, they will never buy clothes that fit, they must be one size larger, and some people even buy two sizes larger, just because the child grows up fast, and if you buy a bigger one, you can wear it longer.
But in fact, one size bigger is okay, two sizes bigger is not necessary, often by the time it is appropriate, the clothes are old and dirty.
In the end, there is no time when a new dress looks good.
Therefore, when people's lives are better later, young parents will no longer deliberately buy clothes for their children that are one size larger, and it is better to dress appropriately.
"It's good-looking, it's beautiful." A lot of Kim was excited, this slightly oversized dress was the best in her eyes.
Now that it's the New Year, at most I will wear it for more than a month, and then I should change to a thinner one, and when I wear it again this winter, the child will have grown up again. Now the clothes are on the big side, but by this winter, they are just right again.
Compared with the gifts given by Gao Mingcheng and his wife, the gifts given by many jade couples are much worse, but everyone knows each other's situation, so they will not deliberately bury people, but many jade who are so strong are not very happy, and the smile on their faces is not up to the bottom of their eyes.
On the fourth day of junior high school, I went to the eldest sister's house to pay New Year's greetings, and I was not idle on the fifth day of junior high school, but went to the third sister's house to pay New Year's greetings.
The third sister was married farther away for many months, and it took more than two hours to walk, so everyone rarely walked around before.
But this year, Gao Mingcheng bought a tractor, and with a tractor to travel, it is much more convenient to go out to pay New Year's greetings.
The sisters rarely reunite, and now that they have the opportunity, everyone cherishes it.
For many months, she was in free love, and once she came here to sell mat grass, and then she met her current husband, and then the two saw each other right and were together.
At that time, many beautiful their fathers had died, and many months of marriage had the final say on their own, and there was only one or two months from the realization of marriage, which was left in the afterlife, which was called flash marriage.
Although she got married in a hurry, the third sister had a good life for many months, because her husband worked in the supply and marketing cooperative, but he was paid!
In the eyes of everyone, many months can be regarded as high marriage.
At this time, she was eight months pregnant and about to give birth. But in spite of this, she was still very neat, and cooked a large table of meals, and among the four sisters, the third sister had the best cooking skills for many months, and in a few years, she would open a restaurant in this town in many months, and the business was not bad.
The sisters rarely meet, they all get together to talk, although the men are not very familiar, but they are all brothers-in-law, as soon as they drink a little wine, the conversation box will be opened, and they can talk about things in the southeast and northwest.
But in fact, what I talked about the most was the things in the fields in the village, and among the people present, only Gao Mingcheng had traveled far away, and he often went far away.
So, Gao Mingcheng told everyone about the outside world, the outside world and the world in the ravine, as if they were two worlds.
Gao Mingcheng saw their thoughts, but he didn't explain much, it is now 88 years, and the changes of the whole country are changing with each passing day, and the people will also witness this grand change with their own eyes and usher in a prosperous and powerful country.
The fourth and fifth days of the new year were all out to pay New Year's greetings, but on the sixth day of the new year, someone came to pay New Year's greetings to Gao Mingcheng.
Gao Mingcheng was quite surprised by the arrival, it was Su Tong, who opened and closed the factory that year.
Su Tong came in a jeep, the jeep was quite familiar, Gao Mingcheng glanced at the license plate, and knew that this was Xiao Jinfeng's car.
"Brother Mingcheng, long time no see, happy New Year!" Su Tong was smiling, wearing a suit, he had the taste of a successful person all over his body.
"Brother Su! Happy New Year to you too! Come in and sit! How beautiful, make tea! Although Gao Mingcheng was surprised that Su Tong would come to visit the New Year, the visitor was a guest, so he naturally wanted to entertain him.
Su Tong didn't rush into the house with Gao Mingcheng, but opened the back seat of the jeep and took out two things from it, both of which were very big.
"Brother Mingcheng, when I paid a New Year's greeting to my uncle's house before, I knew that you and my uncle had actually met, it can be seen that the world is very big, but our fate is very deep!" Su Tong said with a smile.
Speaking of Su Tong's uncle, Gao Mingcheng also remembered that once when he went to a pharmaceutical factory in the provincial capital to pull production line equipment, the technicians accompanying him at that time happened to be Su Tong's uncle, and they also talked about Su Tong at that time.
It was also through that person's mouth that Gao Mingcheng knew that Su Tong went to work in a factory that produced rice cookers in Yangcheng.
"This is a rice cooker made in our factory, and I specially brought it back to you! You can use it to cook rice at noon, and it is guaranteed to be very easy to use! Su Tong handed over the rice cooker in his hand, and then showed another thing, saying: "This is a specialty of Yangcheng, it is dried lychee and dried longan, I also brought a lot of it back for relatives and friends to try!" ”
"Brother Su, you're too polite! Come, come into the house and sit down, and the two of us brothers will have a good talk. Gao Mingcheng was also a little happy in his heart.
He has long wanted to buy a rice cooker, and he has been to Yangcheng several times before, but each time there is not enough time, plus many Mei have always said that the rice cooked in the big iron pot is delicious, there are pots and the like, so he is not in a hurry to buy a rice cooker.
But now that Su Tong gave him a rice cooker, he was still very happy.
He opened the box and immediately saw the brand of the rice cooker, the triangle card.
Look at the structure of the rice cooker, uh, I have to say that the function is very simple, and there is no fancy function in later generations, but there is absolutely no problem in cooking rice and porridge, and this brand of rice cooker is very durable, it can be used for many years, and it is still not broken if you don't want to use it!
"Do you know how to cook? Do you want me to teach? Su Tong said very enthusiastically, and there was no high-minded guidance in his tone.
Gao Mingcheng called Duo Mei and asked her to see the rice cooker.
Many beauties had known about the existence of rice cookers from Gao Mingcheng's mouth before, but now it was the first time they saw it, and they couldn't help but look up and down.
She said, "Just plug the cord in?" You can't cook rice, do you? ”
"No, no, no! Just wait a minute, you can just try it! Come, I'll teach you how to cook, with this rice cooker, cooking rice is easy. You wash the rice, plug in the wire, and then press this rice cooking button, and then you don't care, and when this rice cooking button trips, the rice inside is cooked. ”
Su Tong said carefully, and finally said: "After it trips, don't pull the wire right away, stuff it for a while, so that the rice will be more fragrant." ”
"And with the wires plugged in, it keeps warm, and when you eat in winter, when you eat it, it's a hot meal!"
"yes, that's amazing?" Many of the generals were skeptical, but now that the thing was in hand, she decided to give it a try.
So under the gaze of Su Tong and Gao Mingcheng, many beauties first washed the inner liner of the rice cooker, and then washed the rice.
The first time I used this kind of thing to wash rice, many beauties were a little unaccustomed to it, and they couldn't grasp the amount of water, so they could only put it in by hand to detect the water level.
After washing the rice, she closed the lid and plugged in the wires.
With a click, the rice cooking button was pressed, and at the same time, the rice cooking light was also on, it was red, and when it tripped to keep warm, it would turn green.
"Okay, don't worry about it, when the rice is cooked, you can eat it directly!" Su Tong smiled and spoke.
After instructing the cooking, he and Gao Mingcheng were going to talk about some men's topics.
Su Tong's whole person looked a little excited, and he said to Gao Mingcheng: "Brother Mingcheng, you still have the vision to persuade me to go to the big city." When I went to the big city, I realized that I was like the frog at the bottom of the well! But the good thing is that I've jumped out of the well and seen the big world! ”
"In the past, you suggested that I make a pressure cooker, I think it's very good, but I have limited funds, I really can't do it, but now I see a rice cooker, I think, the future is a rice cooker!"
At this stage, pressure cookers are selling very well, and manufacturers who make pressure cookers are making money. However, Sutong saw more possibilities from the rice cooker and a more convenient lifestyle.
Pressure cookers require manual attention to the heat, but rice cookers do not, it is programmed, and it will be more convenient for people to use it.
Listening to Su Tong's words, Gao Mingcheng affirmed that in later generations, the traditional pressure cooker will eventually be replaced by an electric pressure cooker.
