Chapter 11
When Chen Xi came out of Yang's house, he saw that it was getting dark, so he hurried to the county.
But he ran into his comrade Zheng Fengshou at the entrance of the village, and he was dragged back to Zheng's house by him.
According to him, it was getting dark now, why rush to the county? It took two and a half hours from the village to the county, and the road was not clear. It would be better to stay at his house tonight.
Chen Xi hesitated for a while and agreed.
Zheng's house
Zheng Lan was helping in the kitchen. When he heard the noise, he was very happy when he left the hospital.
However, looking down at herself, she was wearing a gray, resistant, thin cotton outfit and her hair was tied up casually. She regretted not dressing up properly.
Zheng Lan said enthusiastically and shyly, "Brother Chen1
After saying that, she went back to the house and changed into a new outfit immediately. She wore a blue blouse with long pants and braided her hair into two braids.
Zheng Fengshou was talking to Chen Xi at the table in the main room.
Zheng's mother brought out two cups of tea from the kitchen and placed them on the table with a warm look on her face.
Chen Xi thanked him and asked, "Is Uncle not back yet?"
Zheng's mother replied: "Your uncle is probably still busy at the clinic. It will take a while. When he comes back, we can have dinner."
"Excuse me, auntie!" Chen Xi said politely.
Mother Zheng had a very good impression of Chen Xi. She was very worldly-wise and polite. She always brought a lot of things when she came to her house. She was also a very good comrade-in-arms of her son. How could Mother Zheng not welcome her?
The two exchanged greetings. After a few words, Zheng's mother did not disturb her son talking to his comrades and went back to the kitchen first.
Zheng Fengshou curiously asked him why he was still in the village so late.
Did he leave at a fixed time in the afternoon, or did he send the girl off in person?
Chen Xi briefly mentioned that he helped send someone back to the village.
When Zheng Fengshou found out that Chen Xi sent a little girl from the village, he became even more curious.
Indirect hint After a lot of attacks, he finally found out who the girl Chen Xi sent back to the village was!
If it wasn't the girl from the Yang family who had a bloody affair with the educated youth, then who was she?
The girl from the Yang family has become famous in the village recently, and she became famous by digging into the girlfriends of the educated youth.
The Yang family is a big family in Hongyang Society.
He and the fourth child of the Yang family, Yang Jianzhang, are of the same age, but they are not familiar with each other. Yang Jianzhang's family is a big family in Hongyang Society. One of the Yang family.
All the ancestors had a good reputation and were well-known in the village.
In addition to the fact that Yang's mother gave birth to four sons at once, the Yang family was also famous for doting on their daughters.
There were also people in the village who doted on their daughters, but none of them were as exaggerated as the Yang Jianzhang family, who actually valued their daughters more than their four sons.
The family was poor, but they still gritted their teeth and doted on their daughters. If the girl hadn't been unwilling to study and insisted on dropping out, and if colleges were not cancelled, he would have suspected that Yang's father and mother would have wanted to send the girl to college. It's a pity that such a good girl was spoiled. Now that her reputation is not good, and it also affects the reputation of Yang Jianzhang's family, Zheng Fengshou frowned, not knowing whether to mention this to his friends. After all, His friend has a good family background, strong ability, and looks much better than that Jiang Zhiqing. What if the girl from the Yang family gets involved with his friend?
Zheng Fengshou didn't have time to speak.
Zheng Lan came out of the room at some point and interrupted: "Brother Chen, next time you run into Yang Shuying, stay away from her. You don't know how difficult she is to deal with and her character is not good. 1
Zheng Lansheng Afraid that Chen Xi would be entangled, she hurriedly told him in detail about Yang Shuying's attempt to steal the girl's girlfriend, Zhiqing.
Chen Xi's face turned colder.
"You don't know how good An Zhiqing is to Yang Shuying, but even so, Yang Shuying secretly fell in love with An Zhiqing's fiancé and wanted to steal An Zhiqing's girlfriend. Fortunately, Jiang Zhiqing saw her true colors early, so she didn't succeed." Zheng Lan continued.
In the kitchen, Zheng's mother heard her daughter talking about the bad character of Yang's daughter. She frowned and hurriedly called Zheng Lan into the kitchen.
Zheng Lan wanted Chen Xi to know Yang Shuying's true face, and was reluctant to leave.
Zheng's mother called her several times.
Zheng Lan turned back every few steps, and told Zheng Fengshou: "Brother, I'm going to the kitchen to help my mother, you talk to Brother Chen about this matter, and don't let Yang Shuying get entangled with Brother Chen1
Zheng Lan felt that Yang Shuying was deliberately playing tricks tonight to let Brother Chen send her back to the village. Maybe she saw that Brother Chen looked better than Jiang Zhiqing and was a promising military officer, so she fell in love with Brother Chen.
Thinking of this, Zheng Lan felt very dangerous and worried. Anxious, she entered the kitchen absentmindedly.
After entering the kitchen, she couldn't help but say to Zheng's mother: "Mom, I think Yang Shuying is a bad person, she should be paraded through the streets."
"Why are you making a fuss about the Yang family's daughter?" Zheng's mother said again: "I think the Yang family's daughter is pretty good1
Zheng Lan wanted to argue, but was sent to wash vegetables by Zheng's mother.
In the main hall
Zheng Fengshou was annoyed by his sister's words about Yang It was a bit embarrassing for Jianzhang's younger sister to say such bad things.
Speaking of which, Zheng Fengshou could see that his sister liked his friend.
Since the first time Chen Xi came to his house, his sister was very enthusiastic towards him, which was unusual.
Unfortunately, the family backgrounds of the two families were too different.
Other people in his family didn't know much, they only knew that he was from Kyoto, but he knew very well that his friend came from a big family in Kyoto, and his father was a commander.
Not to mention that his friend himself had outstanding abilities, and there were many girls in the military region who liked him, including some very outstanding girls with good family backgrounds in the art troupe.
How could his sister be so high-class?
It's not that he didn't have the selfish thought of introducing his sister to Chen Xi.
Unfortunately, in recent years, his friend came to visit his house once a year, and he didn't see that his friend had any feelings for his sister.
Zheng Fengshou gave up the idea. .
His sister was right in judging Yang Jianzhang's sister, but she was wrong in being too selfish.
Zheng Fengshou coughed dryly a few times and was about to say something to smooth things over for his sister when his friend suddenly said, "Some rumors may not be credible. I think that girl is pretty good."
She can be so patient and gentle to a child, so her character can't be that bad!
Zheng Fengshou was surprised. Why did his friend look at Yang Jianzhang so kindly? Jianzhang's sister seems to have a good impression?
Yang Family
During dinner, Yang's mother still missed the soldier brother and talked about it with Yang's father and several brothers of the Yang family.
As she spoke, she said with regret: "I have been in the countryside for so many years, but this is the first time I have seen such a lively and handsome young man. The young man is also tall, estimated to be 1.87 meters tall, and he is a military officer. He is a perfect match for our daughter.
Father Yang nodded: "That is indeed a good match for our daughter. 1
Yang Shuying covered his face: ... How many layers of filters did Father Yang and Mother Yang put on for her?
The eldest and fourth brothers of the Yang family agreed with Mother Yang's words. The eldest sister-in-law Hong Xiaojuan and the third sister-in-law Wang Rong did not show any emotion on their faces, but sneered in their hearts.
A military officer with such good conditions and good looks, as long as he is not blind, will look down on a lazy, greedy, and bossy nephew. The sister-in-law of the niece.
Hong Xiaojuan, the eldest sister-in-law, was a little dissatisfied with the sister-in-law for asking her two sons to go to the mountain to pick mushrooms today, while Wang Rong was dissatisfied with the sister-in-law for eating but not working in the past.
Yang's mother suddenly cried out, and Yang's father, the eldest and the fourth son were anxious, thinking that something had happened. Then they heard Yang's mother say: "The boy is from the city. It's late now. What if he can't see the road clearly when he returns to the county? I should have kept him at home for one night."
Yang Jianzhang remembered that a tall and handsome military officer who was particularly good-looking came to Zheng Fengshou's house a few days ago.
These words were not said by him, but by the villagers.
Two days ago, he had met Zheng Fengshou from afar. There was indeed a comrade beside him.
He was similar to what his mother described, about 1.87 to 1.88 meters tall, with stern features, and his aura was obviously not that of an ordinary person.
Yang Jianzhang said, "Mom, I have seen that man. He is Zheng Fengshou's comrade-in-arms. I guess he is at Zheng Fengshou's house now. 1
Yang's mother breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this, and her eyes lit up again.
Yang Shuying could not see what Yang's mother was up to, so he quickly said, "Mom, the Zheng family also has a daughter. Maybe the Zheng family wants to introduce their daughter to the military officer. You must not go to the Zheng family to make trouble for me."
Yang's father and brothers also agreed.
If the military officer is really outstanding, how could the Zheng family be willing to let the wealth flow to outsiders?
Mother Yang was really relieved, but she was still a little unwilling: "I have been in the countryside for so many years, but this is the first time I have seen such a lively young man, who is also very polite and patient."
Why is he not her son-in-law?
Even after the family dinner, when everyone was enjoying the cool air in the yard, Mother Yang was still unhappy.
Yang Shuying took the clothes she had changed after taking a bath to the wooden basin in the front yard. Before washing the clothes, she stepped forward and said, "Mom, I don't want to find a partner so soon. I want to stay at home for a few more years to accompany you. Don't rush to marry me off." 1
She didn't think much about it when she just crossed over a few days ago. Now think about it, people in this era get married very early, especially in the countryside.
Yang Shuying didn't want her father and mother to find a partner for her so soon, so she hurriedly took precautions.
Mother Yang was coaxed by her daughter and smiled: "I knew my daughter was the most filial and couldn't bear to leave her mother. 1
Hong Xiaojuan, the eldest sister-in-law, and Wang Rong, the third sister-in-law, who had just finished washing the dishes and came out to cool off, felt cold when they heard that their sister-in-law would stay at home for a few more years.
Yang's father also agreed: "Let the daughter stay at home for a few more years1
Yang's eldest brother: "Little sister, you can stay at home as long as you want, and your eldest brother will support you1
Yang's fourth brother also immediately agreed: "That's right, little sister, your fourth brother will also support you! You can stay at home as long as you want."
Hong Xiaojuan: "..."
Wang Rong: "..."
Yang Shuying felt warm in her heart, her eyebrows were soft, it felt so good to have family!
At this time, Wang Rong could not sit still and suddenly said: "Little sister, you don't want to get married, are you still thinking about Jiang's educated youth?"
This sentence broke the warm atmosphere in the courtyard, and the Yang family members changed color one after another, and they had no time to question their daughter (little sister).
Outside the courtyard, An Meixue came to the door of the Yang family again. The fourth brother of the Yang family went to open the door of the courtyard, and when he saw An Meixue, his face was not very good.
"Fourth Brother Yang, why is Shuying here? I have something urgent to talk to her about!" An Meixue said as she leaned her head inside, anxious to see Yang Shuying immediately.
The fourth brother of the Yang family replied An Meixue without hesitation: "My sister is not at home!" He was about to close the door, but An Meixue, who had just lost her golden finger, was not willing to leave like this. She hurriedly shouted outside: "Shuying, I am Meixue, are you home? Brother Jiang and I have something to talk to you about!"
Chapter 12
An Meixue's voice spread into the yard, and the faces of the Yang family became even darker.
Yang's mother, who just wanted to wash clothes for her daughter, also turned pale, but she couldn't bear to scold the child, and she was full of anger in her heart.
Yang's father also squatted in the corner, sighing and smoking a dry pipe.
Third sister-in-law Wang Rong was the most proud, saying: "Mom, you see, I said that my younger sister didn't want to get married because she still missed Jiang Zhiqing. Jiang Zhiqing was An Zhiqing's fiancé. Now the whole village knows that my younger sister is digging into Jiang Zhiqing's wall. If my younger sister is still entangled with Jiang Zhiqing, how can our family stay in the village in the future? I have no face1
Eldest sister-in-law Hong Xiaojuan also immediately agreed: "My own reputation is almost nothing, but what about Dahu, Erhu, and Xiaohu finding a partner in the future?"
Yang Shuying: "..."
Good guys!
Looking at Dahu and Xiaohu playing in the mud with their pants open in the distance, Yang Shuying really couldn't imagine how she could still affect the marriage of several children.
However, seeing that her eldest sister-in-law Hong Xiaojuan and the third sister-in-law Wang Rong were both eager to marry her off immediately, she could only say that the original owner was a bad person.
Recently, in order to avoid destroying her character, she did not dare to change too much.
Yang Shuying was afraid that her father and mother would be moved by the words of her two sisters-in-law, so she hurriedly said, "Mom, I don't like Jiang Zhiqing anymore." 1
The eldest brother of the Yang family, an honest man, said with a bitter face, "Little sister, you said so before, and the next day you followed Jiang Zhiqing like a madman." 1
Yang Shuying: "..."
At this time, Yang's mother had to bite the bullet and said, "My daughter, go back to your room, and don't go to see An Zhiqing and Jiang Zhiqing tonight." 1
To be honest, An Meixue came to her so urgently, which was within her expectations. She had underestimated the whitening effect of Ganlu before, and she was worried that it would be easy to be exposed if she went out.
She was not afraid of breaking up with An Meixue, but now was not the time to break up. , she had to use him to whitewash the original owner's reputation in the village.
So, after hearing that Yang's mother had found a good excuse for her, Yang Shuying immediately went back to the house obediently.
As for her marriage, she planned to talk to Yang's mother tomorrow, and never let her get married so soon.
Yang's mother was worried at first that she would not let her see Jiang Zhiqing and make trouble with her, but when she saw that she went back to the house obediently, Yang's mother breathed a sigh of relief.
Yang's father's face also improved a lot, and the others looked at each other.
Especially the eldest sister-in-law Hong Xiaojuan and the third sister-in-law Wang Rong.
They also thought that it would be better if the younger sister made trouble to see An Zhiqing and Jiang Zhiqing tonight, so that they could persuade the younger sister to get married.
The two waited for the younger sister to make trouble, which Knowing that she was so obedient, she had to hold back her thoughts of trying to persuade Yang's father and mother to get her younger sister married.
After entering the house, Yang Shuying listened to how the Yang family dismissed An Meixue.
An Meixue, who had just lost her golden finger and was suspicious of her, was not easy to dismiss.
An Meixue was indeed not easy to dismiss. Since her golden finger that made her beautiful suddenly disappeared, An Meixue almost went crazy.
An Meixue didn't understand what went wrong. Everything was fine before. After thinking about it, she was most suspicious of Yang Shuying.
Standing at the gate of the Yang family's courtyard, she didn't see Yang Shuying for a long time. She was very anxious and even suspected that Yang Shuying was It's not that I stole her golden finger, so I'm too guilty to see her.
An Meixue's eyebrows were full of viciousness and anxiety, and she didn't feel the pain when her nails dug into her flesh.
An Meixue, who had been waiting for Yang Shuying for a long time, had exhausted her last bit of patience. She pushed Yang Jianzhang away and rushed in.
Yang Jianzhang was pushed right in the face and staggered back a step.
Obviously, he didn't expect a female educated youth to take action. Seeing An Zhiqing was about to rush into his house, Yang Jianzhang was about to speak, but Yang's mother's voice came from far away and said unkindly: "An Zhiqing, what are you doing? This is my home. Why are you pushing my son?"
Hong Xiaojuan and Wang Rong, who came with Yang's mother, also echoed.
Isn't it said that this educated youth An is the most polite in the village? Why did he hit his brother-in-law?
The two of them were surprised.
An Meixue forced a smile and said to Yang's mother: "Auntie Yang, I have something urgent to do with Shuying. Can you ask her to come out?"
Although Yang's mother is a country girl, she has lived for so many years and her eyes are still sharp.
She didn't like this educated youth An very much from the first sight. She felt that she was a little too thoughtful and her daughter was too superficial, so she didn't like her daughter to stay with this educated youth An.
Mother Yang refused without hesitation: "It's so late, my daughter still has to help the family, how can she have time to go out with you?"
An Meixue's face was frozen, and she couldn't find any other excuses, so she could only repeat again and again: "Aunt Yang, I really have something urgent to do with Shuying! Please ask her to come out, and I will talk to her at the door for a few words."
While she said this, she also shouted Yang Shuying's name loudly, which made Mother Yang's face dark.
Some people in the village heard the movement at the door of Yang's house and went out to take a look.
Inside the house, Yang Shuying was speechless. It seemed that this female supporting role was really anxious because she lost her golden finger.
Yang Shuying was still worried that her mother couldn't handle An Meixue. Not long after, she heard the door of the small courtyard slam shut.
Yang Shuying was curious and wanted to take a few peeks at the door, but was caught by her mother who came back to the house.
"Mom, my sister must be thinking about Jiang Zhiqing 1
"Mom, if you don't find a partner for my sister quickly, what will I do if my sister gets involved with Jiang Zhiqing again?"
Good guy!
She is here now, and she also persuaded her mother to get married early.
Although eldest brother Yang was reluctant to part with his youngest sister, he was also a little worried: "What if my little sister's reputation gets worse in the future? It will be difficult for her to find a good family. 1
This touched the heart of Yang's mother. Yang's mother dreamed of finding a good match for her daughter with good conditions and good character, such as the military officer today.
Seeing that even Yang's father and fourth brother Yang were moved, they didn't bother to ask about An Meixue. Shuying hurriedly said: "Mom, I really don't like Jiang Zhiqing. This time it's true. I didn't know he was An Zhiqing's fiancé before, and An Zhiqing didn't tell me. He kept encouraging me to pursue Jiang Zhiqing. I think An Zhiqing is wrong."
Yang Shuying's words made the Yang family furious.
"What? What?"
"Little sister, what did you say?"
"An Zhiqing encouraged you to pursue Jiang Zhiqing?"
Everyone in the Yang family couldn't believe it.
The villagers were all simple-minded, and so were the Yang family. They couldn't figure out why An Zhiqing did this.
Yang Shuying continued, "An Zhiqing told me that she and Jiang Zhiqing were not a match, and she was just trying to fend off romantic interests for Jiang Zhiqing. I don't know what their relationship is now. Every time I sent food to Jiang Zhiqing, Jiang Zhiqing gave it to An Zhiqing."
These words completely set the Yang family off.
The faces of the Yang family turned pale and blue, and they were full of anger.
"Oh, how could my daughter be so stupid?" It turned out that her daughter's reputation was plotted against by someone.
After learning the truth, the eldest brother of the Yang family and the fourth brother of the Yang family, Yang Jianzhang, couldn't help but want to rush to the educated youth center to beat people up.
Is there anyone who bullies others like this?
And he bullies their little sister like this and ruins her reputation.
The two were stopped by Yang Shuying: "Big brother, fourth brother, I know you are doing this for my own good, but what if they don't admit to splashing dirty water on our house?"
Yang Jianzhang's forehead was bulging with veins: "I knew these two people were not good people before1
Now, both Hong Xiaojuan and Wang Rong sympathized with their sister-in-law. If this was true, their sister-in-law would be too miserable.
"What should we do?" The honest big brother Yang was at a loss.
Mother Yang said angrily: "Just now I shouldn't have given her face because she was an educated youth. I should have just kicked her out."
Father Yang took a handful of dry cigarettes and looked worried. With his reputation ruined, it would be difficult to come back.
Yang Shuying hurriedly said, "Dad, Mom, don't worry, I will never like Jiang Zhiqing again."
So don't find a partner for her so early.
Seeing that the Yang family was worried, Yang Shuying couldn't bear it, so she brought the wooden basin outside the courtyard into the main room and changed the subject, saying, "Mom, I'm going to wash clothes."
"My dear, I'll help you wash clothes, you go to bed early!" Yang's mother said distressedly.
"Ding! Random tasks drop, do your own things, please wash your own clothes, complete the task, and reward a pound of pork belly. 1
Yang Shuying didn't have time to be happy for long, and her sister-in-law Hong Xiaojuan asked sharply, "Little sister, is the soap in your wooden basin the one you changed before?"
When Yang Shuying nodded in acknowledgement, Hong Xiaojuan and Wang Rong suddenly screamed and raised their voices, and couldn't believe it and said in unison, "You use such expensive soap to wash clothes?"
Chapter 13
Yang Shuying thought, isn't soap just for washing clothes? What else can it do?
But when she saw the other people's faces changed, Yang's mother also looked like she was hurt by her prodigal son.
Yang Shuying twitched her lips and could only make up an excuse: "Mom, I just can't find the soap nut..."
Before she could finish her words, Yang's mother interrupted her hurriedly: "My dear, the soap nut is in the kitchen. I'll give it to you now."
When Yang's mother went to the kitchen to find the soap nut, she did not forget to take out the soap from the wooden basin.
The newly unpacked soap was quite large. The more Yang's mother looked at it, the more she admired it. She said, "My dear, you can use soap to wash clothes in the future. Don't learn from those educated youths who are so picky. I'll keep this soap. Tell me when you need to wash your face."
Yang Shuying: "..."
The soap was hidden by Yang's mother. The eldest sister-in-law Hong Xiaojuan and the third sister-in-law Wang Rongxin finally felt better.
This time, when it came to washing clothes with soap, both of them felt that the younger sister was just imitating the educated youths and wasting money.
However, the two of them just glanced at it.
The quality of the soap looked very good and the size was also large.
The two of them remembered that the younger sister took a bath with this soap and her skin became much whiter. They immediately felt itchy again, but they didn't dare to ask Yang's mother.
After the family dispersed, they went back to their own rooms.
Only Yang's mother stayed and wanted to wash clothes for Shuying, but Yang Shuying refused.
Not to mention the piece of meat rewarded by the system, she was so old, how could she let Yang's mother, who was busy all day, wash clothes for her like the original owner.
Yang Shuying said: "Mom, you go back to the room to rest, I will wash it myself."
"Oh, my daughter really loves her mother! Yang's mother was moved.
Yang Shuying wanted to cover her face, and Yang's mother said: "The kerosene lamp is not turned off. You can go back to the room to turn it off yourself after washing clothes."
Yang's mother walked a few steps, and then remembered that the child was a sewist, and repeatedly told her that the kerosene lamp wasted oil and money, so it should be turned off early.
"I know, mother!" Yang Shuying said again, "By the way, mother, don't hide the soap from me. Put it in the kitchen for you, father, and brothers to wash their faces and bathe."
"How can that be?"
Mother Yang didn't realize that her daughter deliberately avoided her two sisters-in-law.
"Mother, soap makes washing your face and bathe very clean. You are busy all day long, so use soap to wash your face and bathe very cleanly, and it will be comfortable to sleep in your room.
Seeing that Mother Yang was still going to refuse, Yang Shuying talked about Father Yang, and Mother Yang agreed.
In fact, if the 1960s were not too poor and materials were too scarce, she would not recommend using soap to wash your face, as it would easily dry your face.
But soap is more expensive than soap beans in the 1960s, and there are also plant ash and so on. Well, it's really useful, at least it can wash away the oil stains and dirt very cleanly.
She had heard from Yang's mother that in the countryside, those who are a little more particular would use some soap nuts when bathing and washing clothes. Most people would just rinse with water when bathing, without applying anything, and the same goes for washing clothes, just tapping with a stick.
She couldn't imagine it, but fortunately the Yang family was still particular and used some soap nuts.
Summer clothes are thin and few, and they are only worn for one day. Dirty, she put soap nuts and rubbed them for more than ten minutes and swirled them several times, washed and wrung the clothes, and hung them on the wooden pole in the yard.
Shuying just returned to the house, and there was a ding in her head.
"Ding, the host's random task has been completed, and the reward is one pound of pork belly. Please check it in the space. 1
Yang Shuying was just thinking about something and really forgot about it.
Suddenly hearing the reward, she excitedly went to the space to check.
When she saw it on In front of her was a piece of pork belly with fat and lean meat. It was probably too long since she had seen meat, so she was still a little bit unbelievable.
When she was sure that the system really rewarded her with a pound of pork belly, she immediately thought of meat-related dishes, such as braised pork, boiled pork slices, and stir-fried pork with green peppers.
She was so greedy that she almost wanted to eat raw meat.
These days, although Yang's mother loved her, the Yang family was really too poor.
Every day, she ate corn porridge, and at most gave her She would be so happy when she made egg drop soup or secretly hid a boiled egg for her.
As for the mall, although it was open, the license was only open to the snack area on the first floor.
She had been wondering when she could eat meat, but she didn't expect there would be such a thing as a random task!
Great!
Yang Shuying's excited emotions quickly calmed down, thinking about how to reasonably take out this piece of meat!
She decided to go to the county town tomorrow.
It just so happened that she had to avoid An Meixue for the next few days.
The effect of the nectar could not be seen by others, but it might not be seen by An Meixue.
She was not afraid of An Meixue, but she was worried that she would become desperate after knowing that she had taken the golden finger back, which would be bad for the Yang family.
Oh, the Yin-Yang fish tattoo on her right arm!
Yang Shuying rolled up his sleeves and touched the tattoo on his right arm with his left hand, thinking about how to hide it. This tattoo.
As soon as she thought of it, she saw the Yin Yang Fish tattoo on her right arm suddenly faded and disappeared.
Yang Shuying blinked and touched her bare arm several times. She was a little panicked at first, but soon, the Yin Yang Fish tattoo reappeared on her right arm, and she breathed a sigh of relief.
After several times, she had figured out the rules of the Yin Yang Fish tattoo. This tattoo seemed to be in line with her consciousness and thoughts.
She wanted it to appear and disappear, so she just had to touch the tattoo and let it feel her thoughts.
This was really great!
No need to think too much, the next time An Meixue saw her, she would definitely check if she had a tattoo on her right arm.
She touched the Yin-Yang fish tattoo and made it disappear again.
Then she went to the mall to check the mushrooms. The mushrooms had just been picked tonight, and she uploaded the mushrooms to the store in the mall.
She clicked in and found that the mushrooms were still there, and no one bought them. The mall points were still zero, and Yang Shuying felt a little regretful.
She didn't go to the county town the next day.
The autumn harvest was coming recently, and the village was busy, and her family was busy too. Even Dahu, Erhu, and the two little nieces had to go out to pick wheat ears.
In addition, Yang's father and mother were still afraid that she would go to Jiang Jingxian again, so they kept Yang's fourth brother watching her from time to time.
In a blink of an eye, a week passed.
Seeing the Yang family go out early and come back late every day to work on the autumn harvest.
Every day, everyone still drank water on an empty stomach in the morning, and ate corn porridge for five or six minutes at noon and night. In just one week, the Yang family, except her, not only became several degrees darker, but also lost a lot of weight.
Among them, the strong eldest brother Yang and the fourth brother Yang were the main force of the autumn harvest. They did a lot of work and ate the same as usual. After a week, the two lost a lot of weight and looked skinny. It was obvious that they were not fat.
Several nephews and nieces also helped pick wheat ears, so they ate less and looked pale. They lost a lot of weight, and Yang Shuying could not sit still.
She decided to go to the county town early tomorrow morning to get the pork belly for everyone to eat first.
This week was also because it was the autumn harvest. The village was very busy, and the educated youths had to work until late every day.
An Meixue wanted to find her but was powerless.
Occasionally, An Meixue went to the Yang family to look for her very late, but was driven away by the Yang family.
This week, she did not dare to take the nectar directly, and tried to wash her hair with the nectar, half a drop of nectar to a basin of water.
Chapter 14
The main reason was that soap was rare in the 1960s, let alone shampoo.
The original owner had yellow hair and split ends, and her hair quality was very bad, so she had no choice but to try to use nectar to wash her hair.
At first, she was not sure whether nectar was useful for hair, and she was worried that the effect of nectar was too good.
She only dared to use half a drop of nectar to wash her hair every other day. After washing for a few days, the effect was not very obvious, so she dared to use half a drop of nectar to wash her hair every day.
After a week, it was visible to the naked eye that the original owner's yellow split hair was black, shiny and smooth after being nourished by her, and her hair was also much thicker.
When her hair was loose, it was as thick and smooth as satin.
Yang Shuying was very happy.
I don't know if she used too much nectar to moisturize her body.
Her skin was in very good condition, and it became smoother.
Against the backdrop of her thick black hair, her face looked even whiter and more delicate.
That night, Yang Shuying went to the store as usual.
This time, she found that the mushrooms that had just been put on the shelf and the mushrooms that had been left for a few days were all sold out.
These days, Yang's mother didn't need her to help with the autumn harvest, so she simply went to the mountains to pick mushrooms.
She saved a total of three catties of wet red mushrooms and twenty catties of mixed mushrooms.
Red mushrooms are more expensive, three hundred yuan for one catty of dry ones, and thirty yuan for one catty of wet ones, which is almost equivalent to one or two catties of dry ones.
Mixed mushrooms are cheaper, one pound of mixed mushrooms is five yuan, which means that she has earned a total of 190 yuan in these seven days.
Converted into points, one yuan is equal to one point.
After these mushrooms are sold, the mall will automatically convert them into 190 points.
Yang Shuying was very excited to make so much money for the first time.
You know, 190 yuan was equivalent to a lot of money in the 1960s, but unfortunately this money could not be taken out and could only be spent in the mall.
Unfortunately, the mall did not have the permission to open the second level and above. Compared with these snacks, she wanted to buy some rice, flour, oil, salt and seasonings to make her family fuller during the autumn harvest.
Yang Shuying carefully looked through the snack area.
She exchanged five cans of yellow peaches, two bags of candy, one bag of fruit candy and one bag of White Rabbit candy, which was very rare in this era, several bags of potato chips, a small bag of chocolate, a bag of Want Want steamed buns, a large bag of cheesecake, and some candied fruits.
Shuying, who had not consumed for a long time, was now busy shopping and could not stop at all, until a "ding" sound suddenly flashed in his mind.
"Ding, ten orders are full, congratulations to the host, the second level of the mall will be unlocked immediately."
Immediately afterwards, the click-click-click sound of the second level of the mall being unlocked kept ringing.
The gray and yellow interface with a lock at the bottom gradually became brighter, and it said the grain, oil and seasoning area.
The bright yellow peanut oil, corn oil, rapeseed oil, white rice flour, white sugar and brown sugar on the shelves almost blinded her eyes.
Shuying swallowed her saliva, and with great surprise, she hurriedly placed an order, buying a 16L bucket of peanut oil, some halogens, three rolls of noodles and two bags of brown sugar. She also wanted to buy more rice and flour, but found that she couldn't pay for it.
After checking the points, she realized that she had almost used up all the points, mainly because she bought too many snacks in the early stage.
Shuying could only exit the mall and go to the space to check.
Sure enough!
The things she bought were stored in the space, among which the one pound of pork belly and peanut oil were the most conspicuous.
Looking at these things, Shuying suddenly had an exciting illusion of a poor man suddenly getting rich.
It has been a long time since I ate white flour and noodles, and Shuying's mouth was drooling.
These days, Yang's mother was busy with the autumn harvest and had no time to cook for her. She ate whatever the Yang family ate, mostly corn porridge.
Recently, Yang's mother finally decided to cook a dish, and there was only a plate of pickled vegetables or wild vegetables on the table.
Yang's mother was reluctant to add oil.
Usually, Yang's mother could stir-fry a large plate with a drop of oil using chopsticks, and the Yang family ate with relish, but Shuying was still a little uncomfortable. The pickled vegetables were salty and salty, and she was panicked.
Now, seeing these white flour, peanut oil, and noodles, Shuying's saliva is about to flow out.
She was so hungry that she devoured several soft, sweet cheesecakes, a bag of potato chips, and a can of yellow peaches before going to bed.
The next morning
Shuying got up and went to the kitchen. Seeing Yang's mother alone in the kitchen, he first stuffed a candy into Yang's mouth, and then found an excuse to go to the county town with Yang's mother.
Yang's mother was fed right away. When she tasted the sweetness, she didn't care about her going to the county town, and hurriedly asked her where the candy came from?
This candy is a rare thing.
"Mom, I exchanged this candy with the educated youth before." Shuying had already found a reason, and worried that Yang's mother would feel bad, he hurriedly added: "I only exchanged a few, it's quite cheap."
Although Yang's mother felt a little sad, she was more relieved and moved. She said with the candy in her mouth: "My dear, you can eat this candy yourself. Why give it to me? It's too wasteful.
The reason why Yang Shuying took out the candy so rashly was that she saw Yang Mother's face is not very good.
Recently, during the autumn harvest, the faces of the Yang family are not very good.
People of this generation typically eat less and dry more, and their essence and blood are squeezed out. Their life span is generally only 40 or 50 years old.
Mother Yang and the Yang family treat her well, so she naturally feels sorry for the Yang family.
"Where is it wasted?" Shuying disagreed with this statement, and said with a smile: "Mom, I have eaten candy, it's so sweet! You can try it too1
Hearing this, Yang's mother was very relieved.
As expected, the son is a debt collector, and the daughter is her little cotton-padded jacket.
"Mom, I'm going to the county town today and will be back soon!" Shuying said coquettishly, fearing that Yang's mother would not agree.
This week, Yang's mother saw that her daughter was quite honest and did not say that she did not like Jiang's educated youth and then went to find someone else, so she did not disagree.
But the question should still be asked: "Daughter, what are you going to the county town for?"
In Yang's mother's view, going to the county town costs money, so what's the point of going there.
"I just want to go to the county town to take a look1
Mother Yang didn't hesitate for long and replied: "Let your fourth brother take you there."
Shuying didn't want to trouble her fourth brother. It was autumn harvest time again. Her fourth brother was the main force of the family. If she asked her fourth brother to accompany her, what would happen to the housework?
"Mom, I went to the county town by myself when I was in the first year of high school. I don't need someone to accompany me1
Mother Yang didn't agree yet. Yang Jianzhang, who went to the kitchen to wash his face, learned that his sister was going to the county town today.
Yang Jianzhang was surprised: "Little sister, what are you going to the county town for?"
"I just want to go to the county town, is it not okay?" Shuying asked back.
"Okay, okay, why not!" Yang Jianzhang naturally dotes on his only sister.
It can be said that among the four brothers of the original owner, the fourth brother dotes on the original owner the most.
Mother Yang scooped a basin of water for the fourth brother and asked him to take it outside the yard to wash.
When the fourth brother left the kitchen, Mother Yang took out a dime from her pocket and secretly gave it to Shuying, asking her to save money, which touched Yang Shuying.
Before going to the county town, Yang Shuying secretly went to The three nephews and two nieces were stuffed with a candy each, and they were still told to eat without asking, which made them very happy.
He also stuffed a few candies into his fourth brother who was getting thinner before going to work, and told him to share the candies with his father and eldest brother Yang when he was tired.
Yang Jianzhang was caught by his little sister stuffing candy, and his eyes lit up: "Little sister, how come you have candy?"
"You can only eat without asking!" Ying deliberately said with a sullen face.
This made Yang Jianzhang very amused. This candy was rare in the countryside. He had never tasted it except for the one time when he was a child.
Yang Jianzhang quickly peeled off the candy and asked before putting it in his mouth: "Little sister, did you eat the candy?"
"Yes, you can eat it yourself."
"Okay, Fourth Brother really ate it." After saying that, Yang Jianzhang put the candy in his mouth. In the mouth, a sweet taste immediately exploded on the tongue. Yang Jianzhang squinted his eyes and praised: "It's so sweet and delicious! It would be great if I could eat candy every day1
Yang Shuying blurted out: "Don't think about candy, I'll take you to eat meat in the future1
Yang Jianzhang wanted to eat meat in his dreams, but when these words came from his sister's mouth, Yang Jianzhang just thought she was joking, and scratched the back of his head and said: "Little sister, you are really good at telling jokes1
Yang Shuying: "..."
Chapter 15
It was a hot and humid day, and the sun was so hot that the fields were cracked.
Everyone in the village was sweating profusely while harvesting in the fields. Some of them were shouting slogans and striving to be the best, very actively.
A group of educated youth also joined in the harvesting.
The old educated youth were fine, as they had adapted to the life in the village.
The new educated youth, such as Mu Qingqing, Xu Mengqi, Xia Shanshan, Zhu Yingfang and other female comrades, almost cried from exhaustion after a week of harvesting in the village.
An Meixue, who had been living a life of luxury by the Jiang family all her life, also could not adapt to the life in the countryside.
This week, everyone went out early and came back late every day to harvest, getting up earlier than chickens and sleeping later than pigs.
I was too tired to even take a shower. I went back to the educated youth camp, had dinner, and fell asleep.
I had to go to work again the next day.
Fortunately, not long after, the team leader banged the gong to call off work at noon, and a group of educated youths went back to the educated youth camp in twos and threes.
In the educated youth yard, someone started gossiping.
The gossip was about Yang Shuying's previous entanglement with Jiang Jingxian.
A male educated youth said, "Why haven't I seen Yang Shuying, the village girl, being attentive to Brother Jiang recently?"
Then he said to Jiang Jingxian who had just come out of the house, "Brother Jiang, it's not that you were too hurtful last time, right?
Once the male educated youth spoke, the others were also a little surprised, but recently the summer harvest was too tiring, so few people gossiped.
Now that everyone was sitting together, they couldn't help gossiping.
Jiang Jingxian still had a cold and disgusted expression : "Don't mention her to me1
Last time he heard Mei Xue say that Yang Shuying was very likely angry because he didn't like her, and deliberately used the bug to scare Mei Xue.
"I guess she knows herself well and knows that she is not worthy of Brother Jiang1 Zhou Ming, who has the best relationship with Jiang Jingxian, said.
"How can that village girl compare to An Zhiqing? Brother Jiang has a fiancée like An Zhiqing, how can he like a village girl." Wang Jing said.
"What's wrong with the village girl? The village girl is pretty good. I saw Yang's daughter send fish soup to Brother Jiang before1
Hearing the word "fish soup", everyone swallowed their saliva in disbelief.
Everyone had heard before that the daughter of the Yang family had been sending food to Jiang Jingyan. Some people had seen it several times, including boiled eggs and dried sweet potatoes.
But no one had thought that the daughter of the Yang family had actually sent something as luxurious as fish soup.
Someone exclaimed: "Brother Jiang, did the daughter of the Yang family really send you fish soup?"
Everyone's eyes fell on him, and Jiang Jingyan looked a little embarrassed.
Speaking of which, since Yang Shuying started sending him things, he didn't want to accept them or get involved with her.
Later, Mei Xue kept saying that she was hungry, so he gave all the food that Yang Shuying sent to Mei Xue.
Looking at his expression, how could everyone not understand.
"Brother Jiang, do you really dislike the daughter of the Yang family?" someone asked gossipingly, and then changed the subject and said, "I think it's not bad to marry a village girl, at least you can have food, not to mention that the daughter of the Yang family is still quite pretty."
An Meixue, who had just returned from work, heard someone persuade Jiang Jingxian to marry Yang Shuying and compare him with her.
How can Yang Shuying compare to her?
An Meixue's face turned blue with anger.
Fortunately, not long after, she heard Brother Jiang clearly express that he didn't like Yang Shuying, and she felt better.
However, someone in the yard said, "During the summer harvest, the daughter of the Yang family didn't go to the fields once, and she even went to the county town this morning. 1
"What do you think the daughter of the Yang family will give to Brother Jiang this time?"
"Who cares what Yang Shuying gives to Brother Jiang? Brother Jiang will definitely not be interested in it. 1 Zhu Yingfang rushed into the yard and spoke up for An Meixue first.
Seeing that the female educated youth had all returned, the male educated youth could no longer gossip, and everyone gathered together. They ate lunch together.
The educated youth ate coarse grains with a bitter face, and An Meixue also ate coarse grains, and her face looked very bad.
Yang Shuying had not brought food to Jiang Ge these days. Thinking of the eggs and fish soup that Yang Shuying had sent before, An Meixue swallowed her saliva.
During the lunch break, Mu Qingqing lay down in front of the bed and glanced at An Meixue, and suddenly said: "Meixue, why do I see that you have become darker recently?"
An Meixue's face froze.
Mu Qingqing continued: "Didn't you say before that you can't get darker by sun exposure?"
The educated youths in the same room all looked at An Meixue's face and found that she had really darkened a lot recently, and her skin was not as good as before.
Zhu Yingfang was quick to speak and actually nodded in agreement: "It seems to be a little darker."
An Meixue's cheeks were burning, her nails were digging into her flesh, her face was particularly gloomy, and there was a venomous flash in her eyes. If Yang Shuying hadn't taken her golden finger, how could she have turned dark!
An Meixue now believed that Yang Shuying had taken her golden finger, otherwise why would she not dare to come out to see her when she went to Yang's house several times.
The more An Meixue thought about it, the more hateful she became, and she felt anxious.
But she could only force a smile with a stiff face: "Maybe it's the sun this week."
"Yes, the sun has been very hot these days, who can avoid getting tanned?"
At this time, Xia Shanshan suddenly changed the subject: "Did Yang Shuying really go to the county town this morning?"
Without waiting for everyone to reply, Xia Shanshan continued sourly: "I didn't expect that we girls from the city are not as lucky as a country girl."
Xia Shanshan's words made everyone feel very uncomfortable. Although they were all from the city, most of their families valued boys over girls. Who loved their daughters as much as the Yang family?
Even when they were fighting over a baby, they didn't let their daughters help.
A hint of jealousy flashed in An Meixue's eyes.
Xu Mengqi and Zhu Yingfang, who hated Yang Shuying the most, felt even worse. Why did Yang Shuying go to the county town when they worked so hard?
Mu Qingqing said again: "By the way, Meixue, why did I hear people in the village talking about you and Jiang the educated youth not being a real engaged couple, and you were just helping Jiang the educated youth to avoid peach blossoms?"
Yang Shuying, who was panting after walking on the mountain road for three and a half hours, didn't know what happened at the educated youth point.
Arriving at the county town, she looked around curiously.
The county town was more dilapidated than she had imagined, with great quotes written everywhere on the walls, such as "Serve the People" and "Down with All Reactionaries", which was very old-fashioned.
The people coming and going in the county town were obviously dressed much better than the villagers. Most of the people wearing blue work clothes should be workers of this era.
In the 1960s, workers were the most glorious. They ate rations and received wages every month. Their lives were much better than those in the countryside.
Yang Shuying did not intend to listen to her mother and go to the second brother's house.
From the original owner's memory, the second brother of the Yang family, Yang Jianxing, was also a worker. He lived in the county town and was a phoenix man.
Before, the original owner lived in the second brother's house when he was in the first year of high school. He was also very good to the original owner's sister.
Unfortunately, Zhu Wenwen, the second sister-in-law, has always had a lot of opinions about the original owner.
Yang Shuying planned to visit the second brother who was good to the original owner when she had more money in the future.
She went to the scrap yard first.
After all, after reading so many period novels, didn't it say that the heroines could find treasures in the scrapyard?
Unfortunately, when Yang Shuying went to the scrapyard and gave a penny to the lady who was watching the scrapyard, the reality was more bleak than she thought.
After all, everyone is not stupid. If the valuable things had been picked up long ago, Yang Shuying couldn't find anything after searching for a long time. She had to pick up some newspapers and a few boxes with beautiful patterns and put them in the space when no one was paying attention.
There were quite a few old chairs in the scrapyard that could be repaired and used, but her backpack only had 9 cubic meters of space, which was as big as a small room. Forget it, she didn't take these things.
Yang Shuying didn't pick up anything and prepared to leave.
"Ding, a random task is dropped. A hundred meters ahead, a vendor has robbed a child and is running towards the corner. Host, please..."
The system task has not been released yet. Yang Shuying heard that a vendor has robbed a child. He quickly picked up a stick and rushed out of the waste station.
Sure enough!
Not long after, Yang Shuying rushed to the corner and saw a man with a sly look in his eyes running towards this side with a crying child in his arms.
He looked back while running, fearing that someone would catch up.
Yang Shuying took the opportunity to hit the man on the back of the head with a stick.
The man screamed, and Yang Shuying kicked him in the pants and crotch. When the man was in so much pain that he couldn't fight back, he immediately grabbed the child and rushed to the corner, shouting, "There's a human trafficker. Come on! Come on! 1
Not far away, Chen Xi, who had just come out of the state-owned hotel, heard that there was a "human trafficker" and rushed over immediately.
After Yang Shuying finished shouting while holding the child, he turned around and saw the human trafficker standing up with a sullen face and gritted teeth.
Yang Shuying was about to go over and hit him with a stick, but the thought flashed away.
A soldier in olive green suddenly appeared, holding the opponent's arm without moving, and kicked the vendor in the back of the knee, subduing him in two or three moves.
Yang Shuying stood behind and could only see the tall and majestic back of the soldier.
Damn!
This soldier is too powerful, he must have practiced.
Yang Shuying was grateful and was about to thank him when he turned around.
The two said in unison.
"Is it you?"
"Is it you?"
Before the two could talk about the past, the child in Yang Shuying's arms kept crying, his cheeks were red and he was hiccuping.
Yang Shuying took a look and found that the child was a boy, estimated to be only two or three years old, with a very cute white and tender face.
Yang Shuying liked children very much, and seeing the child crying and hiccuping with red cheeks, she felt distressed.
She didn't bother to say hello to the soldier brother, and was busy coaxing the child in her arms.
Chen Xi's eyes were always on the little girl in front of him. Seeing her gently patting the child's back to coax the child, her cold face was particularly gentle.
He kept his eyes on the little girl's fair and gentle face without blinking, as if he couldn't look at her enough.
This strange emotion came so violently for the first time in his life.
I don't know if it was his illusion, he always felt that after not seeing her for a week, the little girl seemed to be much prettier.
Soon, several police officers who were chasing the traffickers came, and Chen Xi handed the traffickers over to the police.
Yang Shuying had something else to do, so she wanted to hand the child over to the police.
But as soon as she handed the coaxed child to the police, the child immediately burst into tears, and the police were helpless.
Shuying had to accompany her to the county police station.
In the police station, Chen Xi met an acquaintance.
Director Liu was Chen Xi's former subordinate, and he was just transferred here this year. He was very excited to see his boss: "Captain! Why are you here?"
Yang Shuying then realized that this soldier was actually a regiment commander.
People who can become regiment commanders at this age are most likely excellent.
Director Liu had just seen his team leader and was not yet excited when he saw a very beautiful girl next to his team leader.
The girl was holding a child in her arms.
Wait, when did the team leader get married and have children?
Director Liu blurted out, "Team leader, your sister-in-law is so beautiful, how come you got married so quickly and had such a big child?"
Chen Xi: "..."
Yang Shuying: "..."
Chapter 16
After Liu Neng finished speaking, he quickly realized that something was wrong.
This child is at least two or three years old. The leader was not married last year. How could such a big child come from?
At this time, the public security under Liu Neng immediately informed him about the human traffickers who had robbed the child.
Liu Neng realized that he had misunderstood the relationship between his leader and the little girl in front of him, and he was very embarrassed.
Just as he was thinking about saying something to explain, he saw that his leader's face was still stern and cold as before, but the corners of his lips were slightly raised, and he seemed to be in a very good mood.
Liu Neng stared at his leader several times with wide eyes and found that he was not wrong.
Shuying was mistakenly called "sister-in-law" and was a little embarrassed at first, but seeing that the stern soldier next to her didn't mind at all, she didn't mind either, so she waved her hand to say it was okay.
Liu Neng immediately took his head and the little girl into the office.
After entering the office, he was about to pull a chair for his head, but he saw that his head was very considerate and dragged a chair for the little girl to sit on.
Liu Neng: "..."
Yang Shuying was indeed a little tired holding the child. In fact, the soldiers and several police officers wanted to help her hold the child on the way, but the child seemed to only want her.
Yang Shuying thanked them, sat down and changed the child's comfortable position to hold.
"Tired? I'll try again?" Chen Xi said as he tried to hold the child, but he was used to having a stern face, and his cold and serious features were very aggressive. The child in his arms was frightened and shrank into Shuying's arms, crying and shouting: "Mom, mom, I want mom! Wow..."
Shuying: "..."
Chen Xi: "..."
When the child cried, Chen Xi was a little at a loss, and Shuying took out a White Rabbit candy from his pocket, peeled off the candy wrapper, and fed the candy to the child's mouth.
Let him taste the sweetness first, and coax him gently: "Don't cry, don't cry, be good! Don't cry, sister will give you candy1
No child can resist the taste of candy.
Sure enough, not long after, the little guy gradually stopped crying, blinked at her, with a tear in his eye socket that was about to fall, which was very pitiful.
Yang Shuying's heart was about to melt when she saw it.
The candy was a little long, so she simply took She fed the candy to the little boy and let him lick it slowly, while coaxing him gently.
When coaxing the child to laugh, she found that the little boy actually had a dimple on his right cheek.
Shuying gently touched the child's dimple, pursed her lips and smiled, while telling the soldier next to her that she was not tired and she would just hold him.
Chen Xi, who took everything in, had a deeper look in his eyes, and his cold and hard features softened instantly.
When the kid stopped crying, Chen Xi took him into her arms and said, "I'll hold him, you feed him candy!"
In fact, Yang Shuying's hands were a little sore after holding the child for a long time. She had been holding the child all the way to the police station.
Seeing the soldier carrying the child over, she breathed a sigh of relief. When the kid pouted and was about to cry, she hurriedly fed him candy.
As soon as the candy was fed to the child, the little guy stopped crying after tasting the sweetness.
She gently shook her right arm, which was caught by Chen Xi, and a smile flashed in his eyes.
Shuying was concentrating on feeding the child candy at first, and didn't pay attention until she realized that she seemed to be too close to the soldier.
The man's strong hormonal breath approached, and Shuying consciously kept some distance from him.
Chen Xi's eyes would occasionally fall on the fair and delicate face of the little girl in front of him. Her face was small and white against her black hair, and her lips were slightly red. His Adam's apple rolled slightly, his thin lips pursed tightly, and his eyes could not move away.
Liu Neng had already learned the details of the truth from his police.
It turned out that the child was called Jiang Taoning, nicknamed Tangbao, and went to the supply and marketing cooperative with Jiang's mother to buy things today.
After buying things, Jiang Mu had too many things. She put the child on the ground and was not paying attention. Suddenly, the child was snatched away by a vendor.
If it weren't for this little girl and the head of their group, the Jiang family wouldn't know if they could find their child.
Speaking of which, the Jiang family is not an ordinary family. The child's father is the director of a plastic factory in the county, and the mother is the director of a textile factory. The child is The only child of the Jiang family.
If this child is really abducted, what will happen to the Jiang family in the future!
The police under Liu Neng said that someone had already notified the Jiang family.
Liu Neng nodded and turned back to report to his own team leader, but he was stunned.
I saw his team leader holding the child, his eyes never left the little girl's face from beginning to end, his always cold and serious eyebrows and eyes were particularly gentle. If you don't know the inside story, people will believe that they are a family of three.
How did he think that this little girl was his future sister-in-law?
Everyone didn't wait long before the Jiang family came.
The distant cry of Mrs. Jiang came first: "Tangbao, Tangbao, my poor Tangbao! Grandma's darling, where are you?"
Mrs. Jiang was almost helped into the office.
When Mrs. Jiang saw her precious grandson eating candy not far away, she was so happy that she didn't know what to do, and her tears kept flowing.
Mrs. Jiang was so excited and happy that Jiang's mother was even more excited than the old lady.
In fact, since the only child of the Jiang family was snatched away, the mother and daughter of the Jiang family were really crying and shouting, and the sky was about to fall.
When Mrs. Jiang learned that her precious grandson was snatched away under the nose of her daughter-in-law, she fainted directly, scaring Jiang's mother.
Now that her son was found, Jiang's mother was happier than anyone else.
"Tangbao, Tangbao, my Tangbao!" Jiang's mother rushed over to hold the child, and Chen Xi handed the child to Jiang's mother.
"Mom! Mom!" The little guy recognized his mother and quickly hugged Jiang's mother's neck.
Jiang's mother hugged her lost and found son tightly and cried happily.
"Xiuying, let me hold Tangbao!" Old lady Jiang said excitedly.
"Mom, Tangbao is heavy, I will hold him!"
"Then let me see my precious life."
When Old lady Jiang saw that her precious grandson still had a white and tender face, she was relieved.
Old lady Jiang and Jiang's mother were excited and happy for a long time before they realized that they had not thanked their benefactor.
Thinking of the tall and straight military officer holding a child in front of her just now, and the pretty little girl sitting beside him feeding candy to her baby grandson, the man is handsome and the woman is beautiful, she would not believe if they were not a couple.
"My dear, thank you and your husband so much for coming today. This is the only child in my family. If something happens to him, how can we live? 1
The old lady was about to kneel down on the spot, and Shuying jumped in fright. She didn't bother to explain her relationship with the head of the group, and quickly supported the person to stop her from kneeling.
Mother Jiang also wanted to kneel down to thank her while holding the child, but Chen Xi supported them so that they would not Thanks a lot.
Liu Neng and several police officers also helped and said that it was good that their family was reunited.
Mrs. Jiang and Jiang's mother thanked the police officers for their enthusiastic help.
Before the mother and daughter left, Tang Bao remembered everyone, turned around and stretched out his chubby hands for Shu Ying to hold him again, saying in a baby voice: "Sister, give it to Tang Tang, hold 1
Jiang's mother then realized His precious son was holding a piece of candy in his hand, which must have been given by the little girl in front of him, and his face was full of gratitude.
Shuying didn't hug him, but just poked the little boy's dimples. After all, they had just found their child, so how could they bear to let outsiders hug him at this moment.
Shuying could see that the Jiang family should be well-off and really loved the little boy, so he was relieved.
Before the mother and daughter of the Jiang family left
The old lady patted Shuying's hand enthusiastically and said, "My dear, you have a good eye for choosing a partner. Your husband is a military officer, handsome, good to you, and devoted to you. You two are really a perfect match.1
Yang Shuying: "..." Wait, how did the old lady know that this group leader was her lover and devoted to her?
After that, the old lady asked her daughter-in-law to hold the child for her, saying that she wanted to take advantage of her grandson's good fortune and strive for her to have a big fat boy by the end of the year.
Yang Shuying was completely dumbfounded, and the people around him were also confused.
"My dear daughter-in-law, my precious grandson is so lucky. Several young daughters-in-law who have not had children for several years came to my house to hold my precious grandson, and they had babies by the end of the year."
Jiang's mother was also generous with her own son, and she really let the daughter-in-law hold her precious son.
She was really grateful to the girl and her husband for helping her snatch her son back from the traffickers.
Shuying was confused and held the child. She wanted to explain, but she heard the soldier who was still as still as a mountain beside her say "um" briefly: "I'll take you out1
Liu Neng: "..."
After the Jiang family left, Yang Shuying was ready to part ways with the soldier at the door of the Public Security Bureau.
As soon as he walked out of the Public Security Bureau, he heard a "ding" in his head.
"The host successfully rescued the child. As a reward, a set of high-grade skin care products and a blue satin scarf have been stored in the storage space. Please check it. 1
The sound of the system reward pulled Shuying back from her trance. Shuying wiped the cold sweat and was about to walk towards the supply and marketing cooperative.
The soldier behind her suddenly called her in a low voice: "Wait a minute. 1
Shuying turned around and looked at the tall and handsome man in front of her with a somewhat embarrassed look: "Is there anything else?"
If it was before, Shuying would definitely be very enthusiastic about this soldier who helped her several times, but after experiencing the old lady being both a fat son and a lover, Shuying was very embarrassed.
Chen Xi didn't say much, just asked her when she would return to the village. Seeing her puzzled look, Chen Xi pursed her lips and said, "I just happened to be returning to Hongyang Village today.
Shu Ying's eyes lit up.
Speaking of which, she had a terrible headache when she thought about the three and a half hours of walking back to the village. Now that there was a free car, Shu Ying didn't care about the embarrassment and asked the soldier when he would return to the village.
Chen Xi didn't ask when he would return to the village, but only asked about her situation, and then told her a place and said that they would meet in two hours.
"Thank you very much!" Shuying looked grateful.
"It's okay, if you don't mind what happened just now!" The man's sharp eyes rested on her and then moved away in a hurry.
After the two parted ways, Shuying first went to the supply and marketing cooperative, but unfortunately there was nothing in the supply and marketing cooperative. Not only does it require money, but it also requires tickets.
As for the skin care products and scarves that the system just rewarded, Shuying complained a little. If it wasn't in the 1960s, she would be very happy, but in this era of food scarcity, it would be better to give her food.
Shuying remembered the two bags of brown sugar in her mall. She simply walked to the corner of an alley, wrapped her face with a scarf, and took out two bags of brown sugar.
Not long after, a middle-aged woman in her 40s or 50s who looked pretty good passed by. Shuying walked up and asked in a low voice: "Sister, do you need brown sugar? The best brown sugar, one bag plus grain coupons for one yuan."
Shuying thought to herself that the price was very reasonable. The quality of her brown sugar was much better than that of the supply and marketing cooperative, and the price was lower. After the middle-aged sister saw the quality, her eyes lit up.
The last two bags of brown sugar were sold by the middle-aged lady at the price of one yuan for one grain coupon.
After selling the brown sugar, Shuying took out the basket she had put in the empty space at the corner where no one was, and put the pork belly, canned food, three-tube white flour, White Rabbit milk candy, fruit candy, cheesecake, small packets of broth, and some preserved fruits in it.
As for other things that were not available in this era, she did not take them out.
She went to the state-owned hotel to ask about the price of white flour meat and vegetable buns, and bought 10 meat buns and 10 vegetable buns.
A white flour meat bun was 10 cents plus ration coupons, and a vegetable bun was 5 cents plus ration coupons. This price was really affordable for Shuying, but she spent most of the money she had just earned before her hands were even warm.
After buying the buns, she put them in oil paper.
Shuying asked the waiter to help wrap the two meat buns in another oil paper, after all, she would take the soldier's car back later.
In addition, the soldier helped her several times, so she had to show her appreciation.
In the state-owned hotel, she ate two vegetable buns and a meat bun before leaving to wait for the soldier at the agreed place.
But when she arrived, the soldier was already waiting there, and Shuying felt a little embarrassed.
"Nothing, I came early." Chen Xi motioned her to get in the car, and after she got in, they rode to Hongyangshe.
On the way, Shuying learned that the soldier was called Chen Xi, and he was from Kyoto. He happened to be on a mission here these days and came to visit his comrades and friends.
Two hours later, when they were about to reach Hongyangshe, Shuying asked the soldier to park the car at the entrance of the village. What if her mother fell in love with the soldier again and wanted him to be her son-in-law?
When getting off the car, Shuying thanked him and handed the two meat buns wrapped in oil paper to the soldier, asking him to go back and heat them up before eating.
Chen Xi didn't take the oil paper. He looked at the girl in front of him with a serious and sharp look and suddenly said, "You haven't replied to my last question yet?"
"What?"
"At what age do you get married in your village? Do you have a partner?"
Chapter 17
Shuying was stunned by the sudden question from the soldier in front of her. Even if she was slow to react, she could feel that the other party might have a little affection for her.
Shuying was a little flustered. She looked up and looked at the man in front of her seriously for the first time.
She suddenly realized that the other party was really tall. She was 1.65 meters tall, but she was just a little higher than the other man's shoulders.
The man in front of her was not only tall, but also had cold and sharp features, deep and high eyebrows, deep and sharp eyes, and thin lips.
This is undoubtedly a very beautiful and handsome face, but because of the harsh and cold eyebrows, it is extremely aggressive.
When looking at people, his eyes are focused and serious, as if you are the only one in his eyes.
Shuying retracted her gaze, and her heart was slightly moved.
To be honest, it might be too early for her to have feelings for this Captain Chen, but she did have a good impression of him after he took the initiative to help her a few times before.
If she were to get married in this life, the other party would undoubtedly be a very good person.
However, marriage is early in this era, and she has doubts in her heart.
An Meixue's voice not far away interrupted the conversation between the two: "Shuying1
Hearing An Meixue's voice, she just wanted to turn around and take a look.
The man's low voice actually carried a bit of temptation and continued to ask: "Do you have a partner?"
As the other party approached, Shuying stuttered and replied: "No1
"Hmm1
Yang Shuying: "?"
"Shuying1
An Meixue couldn't wait to get to her. Yi took a leave and finally waited for Yang Shuying at the entrance of the village. Before he could be happy, he saw that she was actually with Chen, the future high-ranking leader.
A few traces of panic and jealousy flashed in her eyes, and this jealousy was even stronger than when Yang Shuying married Jiang Ge in her previous life.
On what basis?
On what basis did Yang Shuying still have the aura of a heroine? In her previous life, it was not enough to hook up with Jiang Ge, and now she also wanted to hook up with this leader Chen.
For a moment, she even wondered if Yang Shuying was also reborn, so she knew that this leader Chen would be in the future. She had no limit on her fate, and deliberately took the opportunity to flirt with Chief Chen.
However, her reason soon made her realize that Yang Shuying could not be reborn.
An Meixue wanted to expose Yang Shuying's shamelessness in front of Chief Chen.
She obviously liked Brother Jiang, but she still flirted with Chief Chen. What else could she be but shameless?
An Meixue's face was twisted with jealousy.
She suppressed her jealousy and told herself that maybe Chief Chen did not look down on Yang Shuying at all, and it was Yang Shuying who took the initiative to flirt with him. Thinking of this, An Meixue's face looked good. Some. She strode over, wanting to make more friends with the future boss and let him know about Yang Shuying's erratic behavior. Before she could get closer, the other person rode away first. When Yang Shuying saw Captain Chen riding away without even entering the village, he realized that he was not going back to Hongyang Society at all, but was sending her back specially. Realizing this, Yang Shuying became more and more confused. But before leaving, what does it mean when the other party said "hmm" in a concise and concise manner? Well, isn't it said that people in this era are the most honest? Why does she feel that Captain Chen seems to be a bit flirty?
If Chen Xi knew what Yang Shuying was thinking, he would probably feel very wronged.
He likes to fight a battle with confidence, study hard, and hit the target in one shot, and the same goes for the target.
He plans to discuss this experience with experienced comrades and friends, and then hit the target in one shot, and he will definitely decide on the target immediately.
Hongyangshe Village Entrance
"Shuying, you just said to Chen..." Chief, realizing that Chief Chen is not the chief yet, but the head of the regiment, An Meixue immediately changed the topic: "Shuying, why did you take the car of the head of the regiment Chen back to the village? Did the head of the regiment Chen send you back specially? When did you become so familiar with each other?"
Yang Shuying caught a glimpse of the vigilance and jealousy in An Meixue's eyes and was slightly stunned.
Why did she feel that the other party was referring to Captain Chen in every word and seemed to care about Captain Chen very much?
Didn't An Meixue like Jiang Jingxian?
Yang Shuying was puzzled, and simply replied perfunctorily: "Oh, I'm not going back to the village, and Captain Chen just happened to recognize me, so he sent me back for the sake of helping others. 1
An Meixue half believed and half doubted Yang Shuying's words, but she regretted that she didn't stop Yang Shuying from riding in the car of the chief Chen the first time.
In this way, Yang Shuying didn't have the opportunity to hook up with the chief Chen.
The more An Meixue thought about it, the more she regretted it.
"Shuying, we girls should be reserved, and never ride in the car of a strange man. What if Brother Jiang sees it and gets unhappy?" An Meixue hooked Shuying's arm very naturally and familiarly.
Yang Shuying seemed to be stuck by a poisonous snake, avoiding An Meixue's movements and said: "Meixue, I'm going home. We have something to talk about tomorrow."
"Wait!" An Meixue didn't forget her golden finger.
At this time, she carefully looked at Yang Shuying and found that he seemed to have been reborn in just one week.
Not only did he become white, his hair was black, and he looked several times better than before.
The more An Meixue looked at him, the more jealous she became. The more she looked, the more she was sure that he must have snatched her golden finger.
Her eyes were bloodshot with hatred, and she grabbed Yang Shuying's arm tightly, deliberately saying: "Hey, Shuying, what's wrong with your arm?"
As soon as she finished speaking, An Meixue eagerly lifted Yang Shuying's sleeves. Yang Shuying knew what the other party was up to.
Since she knew that her Yin-Yang fish tattoo could be hidden, she was no longer worried about An Meixue's suspicion, and deliberately let her check it.
"How could it be gone? How could it be gone?" An Meixue didn't find the black carp tattoo on Yang Shuying's arms, and she looked unbelieving and crazy: "Impossible! Impossible1
Yang Shuying pretended to be frightened and deliberately asked: "Meixue, what's wrong with you? What are you looking for? What's "no"? What's "impossible"? Don't scare me1
An Meixue realized that she had lost her composure. If it weren't for the last bit of rationality, An Meixue would have wanted to ask her directly if she had stolen her things.
An Meixue's face was very ugly because she didn't find what she wanted.
She checked several more times without giving up, but unfortunately there was no black koi tattoo on Yang Shuying's bare arms.
An Meixue almost bit her lower lip, but still asked with a fake smile: "Shuying, why do I feel that you have become not only whiter but also more beautiful after not seeing you for a few days? Can you also tell me how to become whiter and more beautiful?"
Yang Shuying pretended to be surprised and said: "Is my skin really white? My mother was right. She said that girls should not stay in the sun. If you cover yourself up more, your skin will become white. No wonder my mother never let me go out."
Yang Shuying's words touched An Meixue's heart, making her want to vomit blood.
Thinking about how she had been working hard these days, while Yang Shuying didn't have to do anything, An Meixue's jealous heart was bleeding.
An Meixue wanted to force a smile, but her face was stiff and she couldn't force out a smile: "Shuying, women are better if they are hardworking. Brother Jiang likes hardworking and capable women the most! You haven't been working in the fields these days, maybe Brother Jiang thinks you are too lazy."
Shuying is not the original owner. She rolled her eyes in her heart and didn't have time to listen to this female supporting role anymore. She found an excuse to leave.
"Wait, Shuying, what are you holding in your hand?" When An Meixue saw the two buns in the oil paper, she swallowed her saliva and reached out to take the buns, but Shuying avoided her.
An Meixue said anxiously: "Shuying, I will give the buns to Jiang Ge for you.
Chapter 18
When it comes to food, Shuying can't help but think of the special meals that Yang's mother prepared for the original owner in the past, most of which went into An Meixue's mouth.
In fact, the Yang family in Hongyang Society was not poor. On the contrary, there were several young laborers in the family, and they lived a good life.
Because of the famine in the past few years, Yang's mother was very frugal and supported the original owner to go to high school, so the family was a little tight.
But even so, Yang's mother prepared a lot of special meals for the original owner, sometimes a handful of red and sweet dried sweet potatoes, boiled eggs, and even fish soup.
The reason for the fish soup was that the brothers were lucky enough to catch fish occasionally.
In addition to cooking for the family, Yang's mother would secretly leave one for the original owner, cooking it just for her, for fear that she would not have enough to eat.
Not only that, but the original owner's second brother was a worker and would send some longan, red dates, sugar, dried fruit, and malt extract home from time to time.
Most of these foods were left for the original owner by Yang's mother.
Even the original owner's nephews and nieces could not eat much.
But most of these foods were eaten by An Meixue in the name of helping her deliver them.
In fact, the original owner personally delivered things to Jiang Jingxian at the beginning.
Not long after, An Meixue told the original owner that Jiang Jingxian was unhappy because she went to the educated youth point too many times, so she said she would deliver them for her.
Later, An Meixue asked the original owner to deliver the dried sweet potatoes, eggs, and fish soup that An Meixue despised and could not eat alone.
The more expensive malt extract, longan, and red dates were all taken by An Meixue. Even the grain and food coupons that the original owner's second brother secretly gave to the original owner were finally given to Jiang Jingxian by An Meixue in her own name.
To this day, in Jiang Jingxian's heart, An Meixue, his childhood sweetheart, would rather go hungry than give him grain and food coupons.
Compared with An Meixue's "selfless dedication", how could Jiang Jingxian look down on the original owner's "small favors"?
Thinking of these things, Shuying felt anxious for the original owner.
If An Meixue really wanted to give her the two big white bread buns this time, I'm afraid that in the end they would only go into her stomach.
Besides, she is not the original owner. Does An Meixue think she is stupid?
So Shuying refused without hesitation: "No, Meixue, I will send it myself when the time comes. I have something to do at home, so I will go back first."
After that, without waiting for An Meixue to call her, she raised her feet and walked quickly towards Yang's house.
Of course, she is not the original owner, so it is impossible for her to give the food she saved in her mouth to the original male protagonist who looked down on her.
Let the original male protagonist and the vicious female supporting role eat dirt!
An Meixue, who did not find the clues of the golden finger and did not take advantage, was angry and her face turned blue. She could only watch Yang Shuying carrying the basket and walking away.
She suspected that Yang Shuying also had a lot of good things in the basket.
Thinking of this, An Meixue felt more and more uncomfortable and jealous.
Why is it that after rebirth, Yang Shuying is not only getting prettier but also getting better, while she is having troubles.
If she had known, she shouldn't have gone to the countryside.
If it weren't for Yang Shuying's wooden sign, with the advantage of rebirth, why would she come here to suffer?
An Meixue gnashed her teeth in hatred, but still suspected that the disappearance of her black koi tattoo that made her beautiful was related to Yang Shuying.
But why doesn't Yang Shuying have a koi tattoo on her arm?
She had one in her previous life. The more An Meixue thought about it, the more confused she became. What went wrong?
If she knew that it was Yang Shuying who did it, she would never let her go.
An Meixue stared at the direction where Yang Shuying left with a poisonous look in her eyes.
Shuying entered the village carrying a basket on her back. It was almost 4:30 in the afternoon.
She met many neighbors and acquaintances along the way. Her family was one of the Yang family in the village and was popular in the village.
Even the aunties who were harvesting wheat in the fields would greet her.
When they were almost at Yang's house, several aunties were chatting.
Shuying took the initiative to greet them.
Someone suddenly asked gossipingly: "Ms. Yang, are Jiang Zhiqing and An Zhiqing really not an engaged couple?"
"Did An Zhiqing encourage you to pursue Jiang Zhiqing?"
The ones who asked Shuying these gossips were of course the most gossipy ladies in the village. No matter what gossip there was in the village, they would be able to get it out of their mouths.
Shuying didn't expect that they were asking about this and was slightly stunned.
This is a great opportunity to whitewash. Shuying asked in confusion: "Auntie, how did you know? I haven't told anyone about this. Meixue also specifically told me not to tell you. 1
After she finished speaking, she quickly covered her mouth, as if she had said something she shouldn't have said.
"What? There's this?" The aunties who heard her words couldn't believe it and stared at Shuying with gossip, "Why can't you tell me?"
Shuying deliberately pursed her lips and didn't say anything, which made the aunties anxious and asked again and again.
"Auntie, I will only tell you, don't tell anyone else. Otherwise, Jiang Zhiqing will be unhappy1
"Why?"
"Meixue said Jiang Zhiqing would be unhappy if he knew1
"What?" An Meixue has a good reputation in the village. An auntie still doesn't believe it and asks repeatedly: "Is An Zhiqing really not Jiang Zhiqing's fiancée?"
Shuying said innocently: "An Zhiqing told me that it's not true! Otherwise, I "How can I snatch An Zhiqing's fiancé if I'm so close to him?"
The news that Shuying "inadvertently" revealed made the eyes of several aunties brighten and look at her with sympathy.
Shuying took the opportunity to add fuel to the fire and said: "An Zhiqing also taught me how to pursue Jiang Zhiqing1
As she said this, her eyes were sad: "It's a pity that Jiang Zhiqing doesn't like me, but only likes An Zhiqing1
Shuying stopped talking and went back to Yang's house with a "sad" face.
On the way back to Yang's house, she could still hear several aunties talking.
"I said the daughter of the Yang family is honest and would never do anything to steal someone's relationship1
"This silly girl was probably cheated by someone in the city1
"An Zhiqing can't be such a person, right?"
"Isn't it obvious that An Zhiqing and Jiang Zhiqing have a good relationship? With the mouth of the daughter of the Yang family, who knows whether what she said is true or false?"
Shuying smiled as she listened to the discussions of the ladies. She believed that what she said today would soon spread throughout the village.
Doesn't An Meixue like to splash dirty water? This time, let her taste the feeling of splashing dirty water herself. Besides, what she said is the truth, not dirty water.
Even if it can't clear the original owner's reputation, it can also damage An Meixue's good reputation.
She would find an opportunity to expose An Meixue's true face and give her a slap in the face in the future. An Meixue's reputation was too good, and I was afraid that not many people would believe her.
But today's incident was different.
Oh, who did this for her?
At first, she only told the Yang family about this. Oh, her family was really awesome.
When Shuying returned to the Yang family, it happened that the fourth brother Yang went home to get something.
"Fourth Brother 1
From Fourth Brother Yang, she learned that today's incident was not only caused by Mother Yang's efforts, but also by her two sisters-in-law.
This week, Mother Yang and her two sisters-in-law went out to talk about this matter with the villagers almost every day, regardless of whether others believed it or not, as long as they could clear her name.
Although the two sisters-in-law had their own selfish motives in clearing her name, it did not prevent Shuying from having a better impression of the two sisters-in-law.
"Little sister, what did you buy in the county?"
Yang Jianzhang didn't care much at first, but when his little sister calmly took out two bags of sugar from the basket and placed them on the table in the main room, his eyes widened immediately.
Then there were three cans of white flour, five cans of yellow peaches, some cakes, candied fruits, and a pack of Want Want steamed buns. Yang Jianzhang was so overwhelmed that he couldn't take it all in. His breathing became rapid, and he didn't even come back to his senses until he smashed the basket to the ground.
This wasn't the end yet. When his little sister finally took out a piece of pork belly and a small bucket of oil from the basket, Yang Jianzhang's eyes almost popped out of their sockets.
Yang Jianzhang was so excited that he couldn't speak. His eyes were glued to the piece of pork belly: "Xie... little sister, where did you get these things?"
It's impossible for her mother to give so much private money to her little sister!
As Yang Jianzhang was talking, Shuying took out all the meat and cabbage buns she bought, but unfortunately they were cold now and had to be heated up before eating.
Shuying said, "Fourth brother, I also bought white flour meat buns and vegetable buns, let's eat them together for dinner1
The white flour meat buns of this era are as big as an adult's head, and the fillings are also very rich. She tried it at noon and it tasted good.
"Also...Also...Also white flour buns? My mother1 Yang Jianzhang's eyes widened, "Xie...Little sister, have you made a fortune?"
"Not a lot of money, just a little. By the way, fourth brother, don't you have to go out? I will make braised pork in the evening, you can ask parents to come home early1 Shuying said.
When Yang Jianzhang heard the three words "braised pork in the red", his mouth reflexively drooled.
Although the village also distributes meat at the end of the year, the number of pigs raised in the village is limited. With so many households, how can they distribute too much?
At the end of the year, everyone can only taste the meat with a few chopsticks.
Mother Yang was reluctant to add seasoning, so how could she be willing to make braised pork.
The only time he had braised pork was when the second son got married, and he only managed to grab a piece. He can't forget the taste now.
Yang Jianzhang stared at the meat, oil and big white bread buns on the table, swallowing his saliva, and picked up the basket absent-mindedly, looking back every few steps.
Before Yang Jianzhang left, Shuying did not forget to give her fourth brother a piece of cheesecake and some candies, asking him to finish eating before going to work.
There was not much cheesecake, so it was impossible to give it away one by one.
Apart from Yang's father and mother, fourth brother Yang treated her the best.
These days, fourth brother Yang was very thin, as thin as the refugees in Africa, and he was tall, so his clothes looked a bit empty.
Shuying felt so distressed.
Fourth brother Yang was a little hesitant at first, but after hearing Shuying say that everyone could eat in the evening, fourth brother Yang was relieved. A piece of cheesecake was the size of a child's palm, and was swallowed up by fourth brother Yang in one gulp.
The sweet and fragrant taste made Fourth Brother Yang still want more.
"Little sister, this cake is really delicious! I have never eaten it before1
"It's almost time for dinner. Let's eat it on an empty stomach later. Fourth Brother, remember to ask parents, elder brother and sister-in-law to go home early in the evening. I will make delicious food for you1
She was a foodie in her previous life. When she was in college, she worked part-time in restaurants and hotels. She also asked some chefs for cooking skills and watched many cooking bloggers' videos on a certain red book.
Although her cooking skills are not as good as those of professional chefs, they are also very good.
Chapter 19
After Yang Si Ge went out for a long time thinking about "red braised pork", he forgot to ask his little sister what kind of fortune she made.
However, when he thought of his little sister saying that she would make "red braised pork" for the family in the evening, Yang Si Ge swallowed his saliva and wished that he could go home immediately to have red braised pork.
When they returned to the fields, the Yang family was working hard, including several nephews and nieces.
Xiaohu was too young and loved to pick wheat ears and play whenever he wanted. Several older children did not forget to look at Xiaohu when they picked wheat ears.
Fourth Brother Yang put down the basket and first distributed the White Rabbit candies given by his younger sister to his nephews and nieces. His sister didn't know if her hands were too tight, but she actually grabbed five or six candies for him.
These are very rare and expensive White Rabbit milk candies.
Dahu, Erhu, Xiaohu, Daya, and Erya were very happy to get the candies.
Daya and Erya were reluctant to eat the candies and put them in their pockets.
Dahu and Erhu couldn't wait to put the candies in their mouths, but Xiaohu was slow, so Dahu had to help him peel the milk candies and put them in his mouth.
After stuffing it into his mouth, Xiaohu, who tasted the candy for the first time, was even more amazed. He squinted his eyes while eating, twisted his little butt and said in a baby voice: "It's delicious! Uncle, it's delicious1
Erhu patted Xiaohu's head: "What do you mean uncle, it's delicious, it's the candy that's delicious1
Erhu was scolded by Daya: "Erhu, don't pat your brother's head! Otherwise, I will tell Auntie later1
"Snitch spirit1 Erhu stuck out his tongue at Daya She turned her head, rolled her eyes, and ran to her fourth brother Yang to ask for candy. Unfortunately, fourth brother Yang only had a few candies, and he gave them all to his nephews and nieces. Where could he get candy?
When Hong Xiaojuan, the eldest sister-in-law, was harvesting wheat, she noticed that the children were eating candy, and she screamed in surprise: "Uncle, where did you get the candy?"
Hong Xiaojuan had a loud voice, and when she spoke, Yang's father, mother, eldest brother, and third sister-in-law Wang Rong all heard it and looked over.
When they saw that the children were indeed eating candy, Yang's father and mother also asked what was going on.
The fourth brother Yang could only honestly say: "Dad and Mom, my little sister is back. The candy just now was given by my little sister. 1
"My little sister has candy! I knew it!" Da Hu sniffed his nose and said proudly.
"I knew it too!" Er Hu also said proudly.
"I know even more!" Xiao Hu puffed up his chest with a childish look, as if he wanted to tell everyone that he knew it best.
The eldest sister-in-law Hong Xiaojuan and the third sister-in-law Wang Rong had been holding back a lot of anger these days because Yang's mother didn't let the little sister go to the fields.
Hearing the words of the fourth brother, he felt even more uncomfortable. How much pocket money did the mother secretly give to the little sister behind their backs?
Where in the village is there such a coquettish lady? !
Now the only girl who can't go to the fields for the summer harvest is the Yang family.
Mother said that the younger sister is about to get married and it will be difficult to find a partner if she gets tanned. They didn't say anything before and tolerated it.
But they couldn't tolerate the fact that Yang's mother secretly gave money to the younger sister behind their backs.
Just as they were about to say something, they heard the fourth brother Yang suddenly said: "The younger sister said that we should finish the work early and go home to eat braised pork.
"What?"
"What?"
The power of braised pork is not ordinary. Even honest people like Yang's father and eldest brother Yang were blown out. The two looked at the fourth brother with disbelief.
Those who didn't know would think that he was talking nonsense.
Fortunately, this piece of land is the only one of their Yang family.
The others were far away and couldn't hear what they were saying.
"Red-braised pork?"
Yang's mother, eldest sister-in-law Hong Xiaojuan, and third sister-in-law Wang Rong were also wide-eyed at the red-braised pork mentioned by the fourth brother.
Without waiting for Hong Xiaojuan and Wang Rong to speak, Yang's mother said, "Where did the red-braised pork come from? Fourth brother, don't talk nonsense, where did the daughter get so much money to buy meat1
As she spoke, Yang's mother deliberately glanced at Hong Xiaojuan and Wang Rong, fearing that the two hadn't heard it: "When the daughter went to the county town, I only gave her a few cents1
If the fourth brother hadn't mentioned "red-braised pork", Hong Xiaojuan and Wang Rong might have focused on the money Yang's mother gave them, but now their attention was all on the red-braised pork.
Even Father Yang, the eldest brother of the Yang family, and the children Dahu, Erhu, and Daya were all focused on the braised pork.
They were all drooling.
They didn't know how long they hadn't eaten meat, let alone braised pork.
Little Hu knew at his age that meat was the most delicious and rare, and said in a baby voice: "Meat, I want to eat meat too1
Mother Yang didn't believe that her daughter bought meat. How much money did she give her daughter? Would she not know?
"Fourth brother, did my younger sister really say that there would be braised pork for dinner?" Father Yang asked.
Yang Jianzhang was a little aggrieved because his family didn't trust him. When he heard the eldest brother's question, he nodded immediately.
If he wasn't afraid that his family would be too shocked, he would have wanted to tell them about the oil, white noodles, canned food, and white bread buns that his little sister had just bought.
Thinking of the white bread buns, he swallowed.
Forget it, let's wait for them to go home and see for themselves.
As soon as Yang Jianzhang nodded, Yang's father immediately said to the eldest brother of the Yang family: "Let's move quickly. After we finish this crop, we will be able to go home today."
The eldest brother of the Yang family also nodded immediately.
Erhu was very clever. After picking wheat ears for a while, he said he was tired and wanted to go home.
When Erhu mentioned it, the other children were eager to go.
These days of summer harvest, these children are no easier than their adults, even Xiaohu's face has been tanned a lot.
So Yang's father simply let Dahu and Daya take a few younger brothers and sisters home first.
Shuying, who was busy in the kitchen of the Yang family, didn't know that the three words "red braised pork" were so powerful.
She lit a fire and baked some corn cakes with corn flour.
In fact, Yang's mother would also make pancakes, but she was too frugal and didn't put anything in them. She just made them dry. The mixed flour nowadays is not as fine and smooth as the flour ground by modern machines.
It tasted dry and choking, and it was tasteless. How could it be delicious?
Since there was no white flour, Shuying could only make pancakes with corn mixed flour, and brushed a layer of cooking oil on the pancake dough.
When the dough was almost risen, she added salted vegetables and then made them.
In fact, Shuying really wanted to add some small pieces of meat on top, so that they would be more fragrant and delicious.
Unfortunately, there was only one pound of meat, which was too little, and she still had to make braised pork.
She didn't make a lot of corn pancakes. Although there were large white bread buns, there was a lot of work and tiredness at home recently, and the family must have a big appetite.
Besides, there are more than ten people in the Yang family, and the second brother and his wife live in the city, and the third brother is not back from building a bridge.
These ten buns can only be divided into one and a half buns per person at most.
This is the case when Captain Chen did not take her two large white flour meat buns.
There are too many people in the family, and the buns cannot be divided, otherwise she would not have given only two large white flour meat buns to Captain Chen who helped her.
She really can't afford it now.
Shuying thought that she would repay Captain Chen after making money in the future.
After the corn and salted vegetable cakes were baked one by one, Shuying tasted half a piece and found that it tasted quite good, fragrant and delicious.
She put the pancake aside, and seeing that it was getting dark outside, she prepared to make braised pork.
Washed one pound of braised pork and cut it into blocks. Since there was only one pound, she cut the meat into small and medium-sized pieces, enough for each family member to eat two or three pieces.
When making braised pork, she found that she didn't have rock sugar, so she simply used hard candy with no taste to replace it.
First blanch it. Since there was no cooking wine, she only blanched scallions and ginger.
After blanching, add oil and sugar to stir-fry the sugar color, put the pork belly in, fry it slightly, and then add the brine she redeemed from the mall.
Add star anise, cinnamon, bay leaves, scallions, and garlic and stir-fry until fragrant.
The kitchen was immediately filled with fragrance.
She was worried that there was no soy sauce at home, but fortunately there was a little soy sauce at home.
This was because the second brother of the original owner beat her up last time when he came from the county town, and was scolded by Yang's mother.
The main reason is that people in the countryside are reluctant to use cooking oil now, so how can they afford to buy soy sauce? At most, they just add salt.
Compared with Yang's mother's frugality, Shuying is willing to add ingredients.
She added soy sauce, added water to cover the meat, and let it cook continuously over medium-low heat.
Soon, the aroma of broth and meat floated out from the pot lid.
Even though Shuying had eaten white bread buns at noon, she felt a little greedy when she smelled the increasingly fragrant smell.
Maybe it was because it smelled too good, a neighbor asked across the wall: "Yang, what did you cook tonight? Why does it smell so good?"
Shuying didn't have time to go back, and the sound of a few radishes came from home.
"Auntie"
"Auntie"
Since Shuying gave candies to her nephews and nieces, they love her very much.
Shuying was still busy in the kitchen, and Xiaohu ran to the kitchen and hugged her feet with a look of dependence.
Da Ya and Er Ya were very sensible and sat opposite the stove to watch the fire.
Da Hu and Er Hu were fighting beside the stove, swallowing their saliva.
The two were not even as tall as the stove, so Da Hu and Er Hu stood on tiptoe, holding their hands beside the stove, swallowing their saliva.
They From birth to now, they have never smelled such a delicious smell. They wanted to swallow their tongues before they even ate it.
Erhu rolled his eyes and said coquettishly, "Aunt, what did you do? It smells so good!"
Erhu wanted to lift the lid of the pot with his black paws to take a look.
He was blocked by Shuying, mainly because the pot was hot. He was afraid that the two nephews would be burned, so he poured a basin of cold water and asked the nephews and nieces to wash their black paws first.
Shuying, who knew how to make delicious food, was very majestic in the hearts of the nephews and nieces. They were afraid that she would not give them meat to eat, so they washed their black paws cleanly.
While the meat was cooking, Shuying took a washbasin and washed her face. She used a towel to wipe the faces of her nephews and nieces one by one.
Thinking of the children of her generation, who were all picky about food and drink, and her own nephews and nieces who had to pick wheat ears every day, Shuying felt distressed and soft-hearted.
She took a piece of salted vegetable corn cake to fill the stomachs of her three nephews and two nieces first. There was no amount of braised pork. I can't let them taste it.
Shuying simply served a small bowl of braised pork soup and asked them to taste it.
Shuying didn't discriminate between boys and girls. She fed Xiaohu both her nephews and nieces.
The first time they ate braised pork soup, the little radishes were so delicious that they almost swallowed them with their tongues. They screamed.
Not only braised pork soup, but also salted vegetables. The eyes of the little radishes on the pancakes also lit up, and when Shuying took out the big white bread buns to heat them up.
The eyes of the little radishes were all staring.
"Aunt 1
"Aunt 1
At almost six o'clock in the evening, Yang's father, mother, and eldest brother of the Yang family returned home from work.
After entering the house, the overbearing aroma of red-roasted pork filled the entire Yang family courtyard.
Yang's father, mother, eldest brother of the Yang family, Yang Jianzhang, Hong Xiaojuan, Wang Rong and others smelled the aroma and swallowed their saliva wildly.
Wow!
My little sister wouldn't really make red-roasted pork, would she?
Even Yang's father and eldest brother of the Yang family, who were very calm, were excited at this moment: "My little sister really made red-roasted pork?"
Chapter 20
Of course the braised pork was really cooked.
When Father Yang and his friends came back, Shuying had already scooped the braised pork into a bowl in the kitchen. The little radishes stared at the fragrant bowl of braised pork with their eyes wide open and drooling.
Shuying had heard the noise outside and guessed that Father Yang and his friends had returned.
Shuying asked Dahu and Erhu to go and have a look.
Ever since they had tasted Shuying's cooking skills, Dahu and Erhu had become very obedient.
The clever Erhu said first, "Aunt, I'll go.
After that, he ran out. Shuying told him to run slowly and not to fall.
Xiaohu also stumbled and ran out with his second brother. Shuying asked Dahu and Da Ya to look after Xiaohu.
In the yard, Yang's father, mother, eldest brother, fourth brother, eldest sister-in-law, third sister-in-law and others had washed their hands and faces by the well in the small yard.
This well was dug with the money sent by the second brother.
After washing their hands, everyone went into the main hall together and waited for everyone to come. Seeing canned food, white noodles, White Rabbit candy and other snacks on the table, everyone was stunned.
Except for Brother Yang who had been shocked once before, he was relatively calm this time.
The eldest sister-in-law Hong Xiaojuan and the third sister-in-law Wang Rong almost popped their eyes out of their sockets when they saw the pile of things on the table.
The third sister-in-law Wang Rong couldn't help but said, "My goodness, did my younger sister buy these when she went to the county town today?"
As she said that, Wang Rong was very excited and went over to pick up three rolls of white noodles.
This was the first time she had seen such white fine grains. Wang Rong excitedly rushed to Yang's mother and said, "Mom, this fine grain is really good!"
At this time, Yang's mother was stunned by the pile of things on the table, including white noodles and canned food. She couldn't utter a word for a long time.
Sister-in-law Hong Xiaojuan also hurried forward to take a look. When she saw that there were a lot of good things on the table, she was very excited.
Like Wang Rong, sister-in-law Hong Xiaojuan was most concerned about the fine grain white noodles. She was so excited that she said, "These white noodles are really white!"
Where did my sister get these things?
It is impossible for my mother to give my sister so much money to spend. She still believed it.
Did my sister get rich?
Hong Xiaojuan and Wang Rong had different thoughts. They looked at the white noodles and touched the other cans of White Rabbit candy. I can't get enough of it.
Father Yang and the eldest brother of the Yang family are still dumbfounded.
Shuying brought the braised pork into the main room, and Daya and Dahu helped to bring the white flour meat buns and corn and salted vegetable cakes.
When Shuying put these things on the table, the braised pork and the white flour meat buns, the Yang family was completely dumbfounded.
Everyone's eyes were glued to the braised pork and the white flour buns, even Father Yang was staring at them. Swallowing saliva.
My goodness, the food today is not as good as it is during the Chinese New Year!
Not to mention Fourth Brother Yang, his face was so excited that he wanted to get on the table right away.
Sure enough, he listened to his younger sister, there was really braised pork to eat.
Shuying said: "Dad and Mom, Big Brother, Fourth Brother, Big Sister-in-law, Third Sister-in-law, you can have dinner."
She was a little greedy for the dishes she cooked tonight, let alone others.
Mother Yang looked at the white flour and meat, her lips trembled fiercely: "My daughter, where did you get all these things?"
White flour, meat, canned sugar and other food, how much money does it cost!
And this meat, how many good ingredients must be put in it!
Mother Yang's meat hurts before she eats it.
Father Yang also hurriedly asked his daughter where these things came from?
Although his wife dotes on his daughter, he still believes that his wife can't afford to give his daughter so much money to spend.
"Yes, little sister, where did you get these things?" The two sisters pricked up their ears to listen.
Even the eldest and fourth brothers Yang pricked up their ears.
Shuying had already prepared an excuse, telling her about the incident of a trafficker who robbed a child in the county today, and then helped.
So the other party gave her these good things to thank her.
Shuying said that she had also refused, but the other party was too enthusiastic, so she had no choice but to take it home.
Shuying was not afraid of being exposed. Today's rescue of the child was true. Even if the Yang family went to the county police station to ask, she would not worry.
Besides, the village was so far away from the county, how could the Yang family go to the county to ask.
Sure enough!
As soon as Shuying said it, the Yang family really believed it.
Yang Jianzhang said: "Little sister, you are so lucky1
The eldest brother, eldest sister-in-law, and third sister-in-law of the Yang family nodded one after another, but were choked back by Yang's mother: "What's good? Your little sister met a human trafficker, and it's my daughter who is fine."
Yang's mother didn't care about these things at this time, and hurriedly asked her daughter if she was okay.
Yang Shuying pursed her lips and smiled, "Mom, I'm fine. A military officer happened to help me today." 1
Mother Yang was completely relieved. She wanted to say something, but Xiaohu and Erya's stomachs started to growl.
Dahu and Erhu couldn't stand the smell of the braised pork either, and said in unison, "Grandma, I'm so hungry." 1
Although the others didn't have any stomach growls, they couldn't stand seeing the big white bread buns and braised pork on the table today. , let's just sit together and chat while eating.
But before sitting down, Yang's mother put away the white flour, canned food, White Rabbit milk candy, etc. on the table under the reluctant eyes of her eldest sister-in-law Hong Xiaojuan, the third sister-in-law Wang Rong and the children.
While Yang's mother was putting things away, Shuying hurriedly took the remaining cheese cake, which was called a cheese cake, but in fact it was a small bread that cost more than ten yuan or twelve or thirteen yuan in a modern supermarket.
There was still Shuying simply gave all five or six pieces to his nephews and nieces.
Dahu, Erhu, Xiaohu, Da Ya and Er Ya, who got the small bread, screamed excitedly and put them in their pockets in a hurry, fearing that their grandmother would take them back.
Shuying also took a few candies and stuffed them into the hands of Yang's father, eldest brother, fourth brother, eldest sister-in-law and third sister-in-law.
Hong Xiaojuan and Wang Rong didn't expect that they both had candies, and they felt a little embarrassed.
Shuying felt very upset. Remember what her fourth brother said about how her eldest and third sisters-in-law helped her clean up her name this week, so she couldn't be stingy just for this.
Mother Yang was so angry at her daughter's generosity that she laughed. She was thinking of hiding these things for her daughter to eat slowly in the future.
Who would have thought that she would divide them so quickly.
Before Mother Yang could speak, Shuying hurriedly said, "Mom, you guys are too tired working in the fields, it's better to eat some sugar to prevent hypoglycemia.
Shuying's words moved Yang's father, mother, eldest brother and fourth brother.
Hong Xiaojuan and Wang Rong were a little surprised. After all, in their hearts, the sister-in-law was kind-hearted, but too naive and ignorant of the ways of the world.
She only gave the delicious food to the educated youth Jiang who looked down on her, and didn't give anything to her own nephews and nieces. After a long time, how could they not feel resentful?
Now it seems that the younger sister has changed a little, she should Could it be that they were sending gifts to that educated youth of Jiang?
Seeing that her daughter had received so many candies and rare cakes, Yang's mother felt a little sad.
However, since her daughter had already received all the candies, she couldn't let her grandchildren take them back. She was afraid that her daughter would be too cunning and take something away again, so she hurriedly hid the canned food, candies, some preserved fruits, and white noodles.
After Yang's mother came back, the Yang family sat down and said, "I'm going to take the candies and cakes." Dinner in the main hall.
No one wanted to talk anymore.
The overbearing aroma of the braised pork wafted towards everyone's nose.
Mother Yang wanted to divide the meat and give her daughter a few more pieces.
Shuying first gave a piece of braised pork to Father and Mother Yang and said, "Dad and Mom, you two can taste my cooking skills!"
Father and Mother Yang took a bite of the meat. Father Yang's eyes widened immediately after tasting it. His daughter was cooking. This is so delicious.
Why didn't he think his daughter was such a good cook before?
It's much better than the meat his wife used to cook.
Although Yang's mother thought the braised pork tasted very good, she felt so painful that she couldn't eat it when she thought about how much ingredients were put into the meat.
Yang's father and mother started to eat, and others also picked up the meat. Xiaohu was small, and he was so anxious that he almost cried when he saw that everyone was eating the meat.
Shuying was faster than his sister-in-law Hong Xiaojuan. He first picked up two pieces for Xiaohu, and then picked up a piece for himself and put it in the bowl.
Hong Xiaojuan now liked her sister-in-law more.
Shuying tasted the braised pork she made. Maybe it was because she had been eating corn paste for too long, but she felt that the braised pork she made was simply too delicious. It was soft, glutinous, fat, and not greasy. It was so delicious that you could not help swallowing it.
Not only Shuying felt that way, but other people who had tasted the braised pork, including Yang's father, eldest brother, fourth brother, Dahu, Erhu, and even eldest sister-in-law Hong Xiaojuan and Wang Rong, all felt that the braised pork made by their younger sister (sister-in-law) was absolutely delicious.
It was better than the braised pork that Yang's second brother bought from the state-owned hotel for his wedding last time.
Not only the braised pork, but also the salted vegetable pancakes next to it were too delicious, fragrant and crispy, unlike the ones made by Yang's mother, which were tasteless and choked the throat.
Father Yang said quickly, "This cake tastes good! It's so delicious!" He even told Mother Yang that she could add salty vegetables to the cake in the future. Mother Yang rolled her eyes.
Father Yang, the eldest brother, the fourth brother, Dahu, Erhu and Daya ate voraciously without raising their heads. They didn't stop eating even when their foreheads were sweating.
Sister-in-law Hong Xiaojuan and third sister-in-law Wang Rong were similar. They ate until their tongues were about to be swallowed. Wang Rong felt sorry that her husband was not at home.
Mother Yang ate a piece of cake and felt that there was oil in it. She was afraid that her daughter had wasted the oil in her kitchen and wanted to go to the kitchen immediately. Take a look.
Shuying knew what Yang's mother was thinking, and immediately pointed out that the family had sent a small bucket of oil today.
After Yang Sige finished eating a cake, he took another one, wiped his mouth and said, "Mom, my younger sister is right, there is indeed a small bucket of oil1
After that, Yang Sige didn't care to say anything more, and continued to wolf down the salted vegetable cakes. Why didn't he know that his younger sister was such a good cook before?
It would be great if my younger sister was willing to cook more meals in the future.
Soon, Shuying's stack of cakes was gone, and only the soup was left of the braised pork.
It was used by Yang's father, Yang Da Ge and Yang Si Ge. The cake was scraped clean and eaten cleanly, and Shuying was stunned.
Everyone ate the white flour meat buns last.
Mother Yang only gave each person half a bun, and the rest would be heated up tomorrow.
The Yang family had a great time eating, and An Meixue, who was at the educated youth point, felt jealous and upset when she thought of Yang Shuying carrying a basket of things home.
She was originally waiting for Yang Shuying to send meat buns to Jiang Ge to eat, and she went to see Jiang Ge several times to get some food, but Yang Shuying didn't send Jiang Ge anything tonight.
An Meixue was very angry.
Back to the room , An Meixue deliberately mentioned in front of everyone that Yang Shuying bought a lot of things from the county town today and brought them back to the village, and also bought white flour meat buns.
When they heard about white flour meat buns, the others were all greedy. Since they went to the countryside, they were lucky to have enough to eat, and there was no place for white flour buns.
Mu Qingqing glanced at An Meixue with disdain, Xu Mengqi, Xia Shanshan, and Zhu Yingfang were jealous, and Zhu Yingfang blurted out the most impulsively: "Meixue, Yang Shuying is not a correct person, she only cares about pleasure and doesn't bother to play with capitalism. Tomorrow I will go to the community to report her1
