Accidentally Born in the ‘60s: (Catch bugs)
Osmanthus turned over in her sleep, Mingdong immediately leaned over and hugged her in a daze, pressed by heavy arms, Osmanthus woke up, opened her eyes and saw that it was bright outside, she hurriedly sat down I got up and glanced at the alarm clock on the box, it was half past seven.
"It's broken, I got up late." Osmanthus hurriedly got up from the bed and took all the clothes that Mingdong had thrown away last night and put them on one by one. Awakened by the sound of Osmanthus wearing clothes, Mingdong opened his eyes in a daze, he stretched his arms around Osmanthus' waist, put his face on her lap, and asked in a hoarse voice, "Why did you get up so early? "
"It's getting late, it's already 7:30. Meat buns and bean buns are designated to wake up early." Osmanthus put on her clothes and patted Mingdong's hand: "Let go of me, I'll go down to see the children." /
As soon as the voice fell, there was a knock at the door of the room, and then there was the voice of Rou Bao's grievance: "Did Mom and Dad get up? The sun is drying the butt!"
"Get up!" Osmanthus responded quickly, and then patted Mingdong's arm hard to let him release herself. Mingdong hugged Osmanthus' waist and laughed, but didn't let go. Osmanthus reluctantly rubbed his head twice, and discussed with him kindly: "Don't make trouble, the child is waiting." Seeing Mingdong closed his eyes Not moving, Osmanthus had to whisper: "It's night, don't make trouble now."
Mingdong immediately opened his eyes and looked at Osmanthus with a look of anticipation: "Just the pose I said last night."
Osmanthus blushed ashamed, reached out and pinched Ming Dong's arm: "Get up quickly, don't make trouble."
"Is it alright?" Ming Dong's face rubbed against Osmanthus's leg, and there was actually a little bit of coquettishness in his voice. Osmanthus got goosebumps at his noise. She glanced at Mingdong period. Looking forward, he nodded shyly and shyly: "Just this time."
Mingdong cheered in a low voice, sat up and kissed Osmanthus on the face: "You will know the benefits once, and I guarantee you will ask for a second time next time." Ming Dong hurriedly dodged a little and put on his clothes as if nothing had happened: "Get up, get up, and go to the street to buy vanishing cream for my daughter-in-law in a while."
Osmanthus smiled and got off the kang, put away the messy paper in the ground, opened the kang hole and threw it in. The remaining sparks got up and rolled the paper and burned it. Opening the door, Meat Bun and Bean Bun immediately threw themselves into Osmanthus's arms. The two hugged her waist tightly, and their similar-looking faces were full of anger and condemnation: "We agreed to get up early." "The bean bag got up and Mom can't afford it." "It's not a good child to stay in bed!"
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, Mom got up late." Osmanthus had two small meat **** hanging from her body, and moved to the side of the washbasin with difficulty to wash her hands, and then picked up the two boys: "Mom will give it to you. What do you want to eat in the morning?"
Doubao put his finger to his mouth and looked at Osmanthus with bright eyes: "I want to eat noodles, I haven't eaten noodles for a long time."
There is still a little flour brought from Beicha, enough to make a meal of noodles. Osmanthus touched her little son's chubby face and said with a smile: "Okay, I will eat noodles this morning."
The meat bun and the bean bun cheered and ran to the east room to wake Ming Dong up. Ming Dong had just put on his fleece jacket and trousers, and before he even put on his padded jacket, the two men climbed onto the kang. Son is overwhelmed. Ming Dong hurriedly reached out and touched his glasses and put them on the windowsill. He turned around and flipped his two sons onto the bed. a group.
Osmanthus kneads and rolls the noodles skillfully, and soon the noodles are out of the pot. When the steaming egg noodles are ready here, the third brother washes up and gets up. One bowl of noodles per person, because there is only one egg left at home, Osmanthus did not beat the poached egg, but broke the egg and put it directly into the pot. The noodles were hung with egg flowers, and the two boys did not lift their heads.
Unlike Beicha, Anbei has rural areas and farms. Even the agricultural college itself is relatively remote. It takes 40 to 50 minutes to get to the town. Doubaoxiao can't go too far, just meat buns Probably can't stand it either. Ming Dong dragged out the sledge that he had welded for his two sons, put a wooden board on it, and the two brothers, Meat Bun and Bean Bun, sat on it happily.
At this time, the twelfth lunar month is approaching. There is thick snow everywhere in Anbei. Ming Dong and Gui Hua are each pulling a rope and pulling their son to the town. There are many people on the road to the town, and there are horses and carriages passing by from time to time, so the road surface is extremely smooth. Ming Dong and Osmanthus can drag them smoothly without any effort. Even when there are few people, the two are dragging one side Playing slippery, dragging the sledge to and fro, Le's meat buns and bean buns applauded.
The town in Anbei is not big, and there is only one supply and marketing cooperative. Ming Dong tied the sledge to a tree by the road and led his family into the supply and marketing cooperative. In this day and age, there are still many simple people. As long as someone puts things outside, the people next to them will help pay attention to one or two. In addition, everyone in this place has a few sledges. This is really not a rare thing.
Because the Agricultural College just had a holiday, the teachers and students were all preparing to go home for the New Year's goods, so today most of the supply and marketing cooperatives were full of familiar faces, and the small places were crowded. Osmanthus picked up the bean bag, and Ming Dong carried the meat bag on his shoulders. The two walked in along the flow of people, both the meat bun and the bean bun were so excited that they turned their heads around for a while to look here and there, and their eyes were not enough.
Mingdong was sweating profusely. He only bought a vanishing cream and a pair of cotton-padded shoes for Wang Sufen and hurried out with his family. Toubao pouted in dissatisfaction: "It's not inside yet. Look."
Ming Dong wiped the sweat from his forehead: "It can't be in it anymore, it made my shoes almost fall off. I don't think I'm buying here at all, it's the same when we get home from Beicha. "
Osmanthus nodded, she bent down to help Doubao organize her hat and scarf, and coaxed Doubao to say, "Let's go to the grain store over there. If there is a sesame cake for you today, buy one for you to try?" /
The meat buns and bean buns nodded immediately, and they didn't even sit on the sledge, for fear that they would be sold out if they walked too slowly. The grain store in Anbei only sells biscuits in the past two months, and they are not available in the sky. , it only sells once every three or five times, and only forty or fifty biscuits are sold each time.
You have to ask for food stamps for five cents per sesame cake. Farmers basically don't buy this, and they don't feel hungry if they think it's too expensive. Only workers from working families with few children or dual workers who have more money will occasionally buy one for their children to try.
Ming Dong had a salary of 56 yuan when he first graduated as a teacher. Last year, he had no salary in the Anbei farm labor camp. After the establishment of the Workers, Peasants and Soldiers University, he continued to serve as a teacher, and the school still paid him according to the previous standard. . Osmanthus only started working in the past two months. As more and more teachers from Anbei Agricultural College bring their families and children, and the campus is full of children, in order not to distract teachers during class, the school allocated several houses and a yard to set up a nursery school and Yuhong class.
Osmanthus is young and good-looking, and she dresses neatly and neatly. When the school was selecting students, she was instantly attracted to the kindergarten and went to work in kindergarten. She usually took care of a child, and she also had a sister-in-law who was in charge of cooking. Fourteen dollars salary.
Mingdong and Guihua earn a lot, and they only have two children, so the burden is very light.
Because it wasn't the day when supplies were sold, there weren't many people in front of the grain store. Osmanthus lined up with her children. Mingdong went to the front to take a look. Today, the window sold not only biscuits but also stoves.
Grate refers to the oil cake in the shape of an iron box like the ashes in the stove. Not to mention the pure white flour, it has also been fried. In this era of lack of oil and water, it is a luxury food. It's just that this thing uses oil and white noodles, and the price is very expensive, costing a dime.
If there are some people who are willing to buy biscuits, there are even fewer people who buy grates. One is that the price is expensive, and the other is that this thing is not sincere, and it is not hungry at all for a dime, except for the taste. Point is not real at all.
The bean bag smelled the oil in the air and swallowed: "Mom, it's delicious!"
"You know it's delicious if you haven't eaten it yet?" Osmanthus smiled and flipped the bean bag in her arms, then turned her head to discuss with Ming Dong, "I'm not too hungry after breakfast, so I just bought them a stove. I can eat it."
"Okay, let's buy two, one of them and one of us, let's have a taste." Ming Dong took out the cash coupons and food coupons from his pocket, and handed them over: "'I want to fight privately to approve repairs' , Comrade, I want two stoves." The person at the window took the money and food stamps, and after a while handed out two paper bags: "'Serve the people', please take it, comrade."
Ming Dong took the grate and looked around to find a place to shelter from the wind. The staff of the grain store greeted him quickly: "If you want to eat while it's hot, go to the empty room next to you, we won't sell grain today. There's nothing inside." Ming Dong quickly thanked him, and took his wife and children to the empty room next door.
The grate was freshly fried, and it was still a little hot in his hand. Ming Dong handed one to Osmanthus, which he held to the mouth of the meat bun. After the meat bun took a bite, he handed it to the mouth of the bean bag. Ming Dong looked at his daughter-in-law's son with tenderness in his eyes. He dragged the paper on the stove in his hand down and handed it to Osmanthus' mouth. Osmanthus took a bite and looked at Mingdong with a smile in his eyes: "It's really fragrant."
The meat bun looked at Ming Dong and Osmanthus, and suddenly laughed: "Mom feeds my brother and I, and Dad feeds Mom, it's so fun."
Osmanthus put the oil cake to the mouth of the meat bun, and couldn't help laughing and scolding: "Eat your stove, talk less."
*****
Mrs. Li thought that Mingdong and Guihua were coming back soon. She set the kang and stove in the back room on fire two days ago. She guessed that Mingdong and the others would not be able to carry the quilt when they came back with their children. I took out the clean and dismantled bedding from the house and put it on the kang early to cover it, and it was announced within two days.
Mingdong and Osmanthus got off the train with their children carrying packages. They had just walked in the direction of home for less than ten minutes when a cart came by. Mingdong heard the sound of horseshoes and looked back. It was the neighbor, Lao Chen, who quickly called out, "Uncle Chen, where is this going?"
Old Chen turned his head and saw Ming Dong quickly grabbing the reins: "Ming Dong, are you on vacation? Hurry up and get on the bus with your wife and children, and I will pull you back."
Ming Dong agreed, and quickly helped Osmanthus onto the carriage, and carried his two sons up. He took out a box of cigarettes from his pocket and handed them two to Lao Chen.
Old Uncle Chen immediately took it with joy, one clipped to his ear and the other into his mouth. Ming Dong took out a box of foreign fire and helped Uncle Chen light a cigarette before he got on the carriage.
Old Chen's family and Old Li's family live not far away, and they are both managed by the same street. While driving a carriage, he told Ming Dong about his family: "Your family wrote a letter and explained to you that Nan wants to marry a daughter-in-law. Is there anything wrong? I heard that it is the girl from the hydrolysis factory, and she is very old."
Ming Dong smiled and nodded: "Ming Nan wrote a letter saying that the house has been built, and when the furniture is ready, the wedding will be held next year, and then Uncle Chen can lead my few. Brother, come to the house for wedding wine."
"That's necessary!" Uncle Chen said with a smile: "A few of your family grew up under my nose, and they are all similar to our own children. Our whole family has designated them to go."
Ming Dong smiled and asked about the children of the old Chen family: "I heard that your second son graduated last year, where does he work?"
"I haven't been recruited until graduation. Last month, the street sent the boss to the business office, and the other boys went to the youth department." Uncle Chen said, "But it's not far away. , that is, the production team in the sixth camp, can come back once a month." Uncle Chen took two puffs of cigarettes, blew a smoke ring and looked back at Ming Dong: "Your Mingbei also cut in the line, but he didn't The youth who went to the grain depot, followed the hydrolysis factory, and went to carry the wood to plant trees or something." Mingdong didn't know about this, so he quickly asked a few more questions.
Whispering all the way, when Ming Dong got home, he knew almost everything about the family. Uncle Chen heard the carriage at the gate of Lao Li's house. Handing a cigarette: "What, Uncle Chen, thank you, come to the house for a drink when you have time."
"Okay." Uncle Chen readily agreed, watching Ming Dong and the others enter the house, and then drove the cart home.
"Grandma, milk, and auntie, we're back." As soon as Osmanthus opened the door, the meat bun and the bean bun rushed in. The two ran in towards the kitchen, and a knot came to Wang Sufen. A solid hug.
Wang Sufen looked at the two chubby grandsons lying in her arms, and she couldn't close her mouth: "Oh, the baby is back." She put her arms around one and looked at Ming Dong who came in behind. And Osmanthus, his face is full of joy: "Why don't you say it in advance, so that your father can borrow a big car to pull you."
Ming Dong laughed and called his mother, and then said, "I ran into my Uncle Chen as soon as I came out, and I'm not tired." Mrs. Li and Zhen Zhen also came out of the room when they heard the movement. As soon as the little bun saw Zhen Zhen, he immediately let go of Wang Sufen and rushed to Zhen Zhen's side: "Aunt, Aunt, I miss you so much."
They said they were aunts and nephews, but they were actually about two years old. After they greeted Mrs. Li, Zhen Zhen led them to take off their clothes and washed their hands, and then took out a pack of biscuits from her room. . This is bought from the shopping mall in the imperial capital. It is added with milk powder and sugar, and it is fragrant and crispy after a bite.
The two little guys had their mouths full of food. While eating the meat buns, they didn't forget to put biscuits into everyone's hands on the kang. Mrs. Li couldn't help but smile and pinched the bulging cheeks of the meat buns. : "I really know how to be a good person with your aunt's things."
My son and grandson have all come back, so I have to cook a good meal in the evening. Wang Sufen went to the yard and brought back a piece of pork belly and a piece of venison. When she entered the house, she asked Zhen Zhen, "How do we eat this meat at night? "
Zhen Zhen has a lot of ideas about eating meat. The key is that every time she comes up with something delicious Injured to the food, Zhen Zhen said: "Or we still eat it with braised food, put some potatoes, carrots, etc. in it, and eat it with rice."
Osmanthus hurriedly said, "I'm going to cook."
Wang Sufen glanced at her angrily: "Isn't it an outsider with your mother, you should take a good rest after taking the train for so long, I won't be tired of cooking a meal. Listen to my mother, sit on the kang and accompany you well. Talking about Anbei, she likes to listen to that."
Osmanthus smiled: "Mom, call me if you're too busy."
"Okay, I know, don't worry." Wang Sufen responded and went out with two big pieces of meat.
Four people came back, and the family immediately became lively. With a smile on her face, Mrs. Li put the melon seeds, oranges, and candy cubes in the box on a kang. The two pieces of meat that I want to eat will make my belly round.
Mingnan came back from get off work in the evening and was overjoyed to see Mingdong's family. The brothers put the two kang tables together and helped Wang Sufen bring the prepared dishes to the table.
As soon as the meal was over, the kang table was filled with people in an instant. Mrs. Li, Li Muwu, Wang Sufen, Ming Dong, and Ming Nan all put wine cups in front of them, and each person poured two taels of wine.
Old Li's family doesn't pay much attention to eating. Osmanthus and the children are served with white rice first. Ming Dong smells the aroma of the rice and asks curiously, "Mother, why does our rice taste so good and the output is high? Can you bring me some seeds when I leave? I will try it out in the school's experimental field next year to see what the yield will be like over there on the plain over there?"
Wang Sufen subconsciously glanced at Zhen Zhen, Zhen Zhen immediately smiled and said: "What is there to discuss about this kind of thing, this year my mother deliberately left some more seeds to open up a wasteland next year, I also said that this is too tiring, just in time Big brother took away the excess seeds and opened up wasteland."
"Yes!" Wang Sufen also responded: "Then you can take it, but I can't guarantee whether it will come out or not."
Zhen Zhen used her supernatural power to plant all the land at home. Wang Sufen was really worried that this kind of seed could not be planted in ordinary land. In fact, this worry is superfluous. After several years of supernatural power planting and saving seeds, this batch of rice seeds has long since evolved under the influence of supernormal power. Although the output of planting on flat ground may not be much, the taste is definitely the best. Okay, after all, Zhen Zhen's mouth has become more and more tricky.
Mingdong said with a smile, "It's okay, it's just because of this that we need to plant experimental fields and study how to increase production."
Old Mrs. Li nodded her head: "Research carefully, if it can really increase production, it's a good thing, and I have to give you credit."
"It doesn't matter if you remember merit or not, it's just my job." Ming Dong smiled and turned to talk about how to grow the crops grown at home so that they can grow better.
From Anbei to Beicha, not only Mingdong and Guihua felt relaxed, but even the two children were happy. When he was in Anbei, Mingdong Guihua had to go to work during the day. One of the two children was in the Yuhong class and the other in the kindergarten, and they didn't go out to play at all. This time, after returning home, we can finally go out to the wild. The two children dragged Zhen Zhen to play on the big river early in the morning, built snowmen, played snowball fights and played sledges. The three of them were like growing up on ice, and they were away from home all day long.
Zhen Zhen has been traveling all over the country in the past two years. In addition to buying a lot of things, she also brought back a lot of treasures of ancient calligraphy and painting from various purchasing stations. Several foreign-style buildings were full. Busy with these things all day, Zhen Zhen's mind is all day long how to save more antiques and more ancient books of calligraphy and painting, sometimes at night when the body falls asleep, the consciousness also goes around to check, the nerves have been tense, and now he is relaxed. Playing on the ice with her two little nephews, Zhen Zhen suddenly felt a sense of release.
Zhen Zhen saw the two little nephews running away, so she lay alone on the thick ice, leaning on her hands and squinting at the blue sky, exhaling heavily, feeling all over her body. Extremely comfortable.
The meat bun slipped and slipped over from a distance, threw a snowball at Zhen Zhen's face, turned around and ran away, Zhen Zhen laughed and wiped the snow off her face, climbed up from the ice, and returned to the ground. After hitting a snowball, he threw it at the meat bun, and it hit the back of his head just right, and he suddenly laughed proudly.
It's crazy enough during the day, and at night the two boys don't want to go to the back room to sleep. One hugs Mrs. Li and the other hugs Wang Sufen and has to sleep with them in the front room.
Mingdong can't wait to relax for a few days, these two stinky boys knocked on the door before he woke up in the morning. Wang Sufen was also a visitor, and she was speechless when she saw the secret joy that could not be hidden on her son's face, so she could only give him a step down: "If you work outside all day, you can rest well this month. You don't have to worry about sleeping in the house, just sleep more in the morning, and relax."
"Hey, okay." Ming Dong's mouth almost reached the back of his ear, he grabbed his daughter-in-law and left, Wang Sufen looked at the young couple's back, and suddenly remembered a big event: "Aiya, I am in the back room. I forgot to put toilet paper, Mingdong came over to get a roll."
Osmanthus staggered and almost fell, and Mrs. Li burst into laughter.
