There is Room for Rebirth in the 1950’s

The two mother and daughter chatted for a while, discussing how to make overalls, and gestured.Until she woke up safely, after Zhou Jiao fed her son, she looked at her worriedly when she checked her watch was almost ready for dinner.

"Mom, are you hungry? Didn't you buy a snack? You will eat some first. Would you like to eat with me later? There are a bunch of people in the hall, and you are not used to it. I will tell my mother-in-law later."

Lin Lishan shook her head, "In a few days, that's it. Depending on your mother-in-law's arrangements, I guess she will let me and you eat in the room. If you say it, it won't be good if you have a misunderstanding."

After finishing speaking, she didn’t wait long. Mother Zhang brought her eldest daughter-in-law Huang Cuilan in with food. When she saw Lin Lishan, she said with embarrassment: “Big sister, I’m not polite with you, I just let you stay in the house with Jiaojiao. Eat. Look at her, her appetite is too small, let her eat more.

I will start to build the house tomorrow. I will be busy preparing food. Those in the village who come to help will have a meal at our house.People come and go, you can eat clean here.Otherwise, someone will pull you to say a few words and you will not be able to eat.I just don’t have time to take care of Jiaojiao. I can rest assured that you stay with her."

Lin Lishan nodded and took the meal. "Sister, this is the best way. Our two mothers and daughters happened to have dinner and chat together. Tomorrow I will go to the kitchen to help. If you have anything to do, call me."

Seeing that Lin Lishan took the bowl, Zhou Mu quickly put the Kang table on the Kang, took the basket that Huang Cuilan was carrying, brought out the three dishes in it, and put soup and two large bowls of rice.

"No, work in the kitchen. Tomorrow the three of us will have my two concubines. There are enough people. If I am too busy, I will call you and not be polite to you. Jiaojiao, you will let you first these days Mother takes care of you, I'm afraid I'm too busy."

Zhou Jiao nodded, and said apologetically to Huang Cuilan, "Sister-in-law, I have made you work hard. We built a yard to live with. Neither Xiaowu nor I did anything. I have to keep you and your elder brother busy. Think about me. I'm sorry."

"I'm sorry, you and your couple don't help us less often. Don't pay attention to those as a family. You can raise your body with peace of mind and raise your body well. You can rest assured that the grandmother of your child goes back."

Lin Lishan looked at the food, "Sister, if you treat me as your own family, don’t prepare so much next time. There are too many dishes, and our mother and daughter can’t eat so much. It’s a waste. I will follow your meals in the future. You don’t need to cook separately. Just separate Jiaojiao’s confinement meal. If you save it, you have to prepare three separate cooking.

Mother Zhang laughed and said, "Just separate Jiaojiao's meals. You are the same as us and did not prepare separately. If you are busy tomorrow, I will cook less and you can eat. After eating, I will fight by myself. I won't be polite to you."

Said and shook hands with the old family to leave.

Zhou Jiao looked at the food, and she knew it was made for her mother.Didn't say anything, if she let her mother eat that wow, she would cry.She would never want to see those wowotou.

Lin Lishan was eating, talking about letting her eat more.

"Jiaojiao, what does your mother-in-law usually eat at home? This is meat and chicken. They definitely don't have these. It is estimated that the meat is in these two bowls."

Zhou Jiao sipped the soup, immediately put it down, stretched her head against the window, listened to the movement outside, moved to the side, approached her mother, and whispered: "Hehe, Mom, you can tell by looking at my face. The conditions in the surrounding villages are considered good. Now they are all fine grains, and they go to the city to replace them with coarse grains. That is, they change to coarse grains. Most people have two meals a day, one of which is vegetable porridge.

Their family has three meals a day, and they are considered family members in the surrounding villages.In the morning, Wowotou adds corn dregs porridge, at noon it is still Wowotou with vegetable porridge, and sweet potato rice with a few dishes in the evening. There is no oil in their dishes. They are all Wowotou 365 days a year.

In Wowotou, coarse grain powder, water and wild vegetables are kneaded into a ball. That's it, many people are jealous that Zhang's family can eat.

Xiao Wu said that his family's Wowotou can change its pattern a year, but Wowotou is still Wowotou.That wowotou eats so much that you have to stretch your neck to swallow it,

Haha, you said everyone eats like this, what do you do?Although I ate a little at Zhou's house, I didn't have such a mess.I followed my grandmother to eat wild vegetable porridge and sweet potato rice, all of which were soft.Most of the time I eat in the school cafeteria with Xiaowu, and he also takes me to restaurants to eat.

When I got married, I found out that there are still Wowotou stuck in the throat.I don’t have any rations. I can’t eat it and I’m embarrassed to say, so I eat less. Anyway, Xiaowu and my mother-in-law will secretly start a small stove for me.My mother-in-law is very good, secretly boiled two eggs and hid them in our house. Sometimes when the family members started to work, they secretly hid the Wowotou and put them in our house, so their family always said that I was a cat's appetite."

Zhou Jiao took a bite of the meal, and then said, "Xiaowu and I really can't stand it, so they bought rice. Let her mother make red dates and white rice porridge, give it to me to drink, and let the whole family drink it together. I hope I don't have corn dregs every day. Wowotou, stuck, took a bit of polenta, and then really stuck.

This cannot be said clearly, because their family just eats like this, and they all eat with relish, and they are all very happy.It's hard for both of us to speak.Fortunately you are here, bring back those rice and flour, or I will really die.

Xiao Wu ran to the county town at five o'clock in the morning the next day after being born in Ping An, and found someone to buy two pig trotter and two black-bone chickens, and her mother quickly stewed it for me.As a result, my mother-in-law said that if you keep it and eat slowly, you can eat a pig's hoof for a day.Xiao Wu asked her to cook a black-bone chicken for the children in the family to eat, and the other black-bone chicken was also stewed.But she disagreed and said what the child would eat.They are all eaten in the confinement period, and the family can eat enough, so there is no need to burn.

I don't dare to buy it if I have money. If I buy too much, it costs too much money. If I buy less, I have no place to burn.Fortunately you are here, otherwise you really can't live.We are all ready to buy a stove, stew game every day, and secretly scatter rice into a small stove.

Xiao Wu said he was crying, and he didn't dare to say it.Because the family always eats this way, even Xizi and others eat this way.He went to school and was not at home, so he took rations to the cafeteria to eat.If you really say that you have no conscience, his father and his mother will be sad."

Lin Lishan happily happily listened to her as she ate.

Zhou Jiao went on to say, "Why is Xiaowu best with the master chef of the county restaurant? Just catch the pheasant and hare, let him burn it, and bring some secretly to me. When there is no meat ticket, I have to go to the restaurant. If you are familiar with it, you will do more.

Didn't you say that I am thin now?That was thinner before you didn't see me.In winter, when the snow and wind blew, I didn't dare to go out.Really, the wind blows me running, I don't have to walk, I keep pushing.Hehe, so I never go out in winter if there is nothing important.

Before I got married, I had no money.Everyone calls me a golden doll, but I really have no money.Relying on Xiaowu to take me some supplements.Marry here, I have money in my hand, but the damn bills are tossed out again. There is no food bill, no meat bill, and money is useless, especially if you don’t have a food bill, you can’t go to a restaurant.But anyhow, after eating game, it grew stronger.

You came this time and brought so many things. Food is the most valuable.You can't have money.Now that you are not in the countryside, you have no idea that food is in short supply.The same is true in the county town. The supply will make you 80% full. It is still planned that the whole family will be 80% full in the morning.Where did you buy the food?Is there no shortage of food in the capital?"

Lin Lishan sipped the soup, sighed and shook her head, "There is also a shortage of food, but we will not be short. What if the soldiers did not have food. I knew I would bring more."

Zhou Jiao smiled, "Next time, don’t bring food. Next time we have a way to buy food. New Year’s Eve is coming soon, big and small fairs will be held. Those who have fine food in the countryside will also be sold. We secretly buy and buy. Keep more, eat slowly. The more expensive is the more expensive.

Mom, you really haven't seen those poor people, how are they poor?For example, when winter comes, one-third of the people in Zhangjia Village do not have cotton jackets. What should I do?Girls just wore jackets and shivered to do housework, while men took turns wearing padded jackets to go out.There are also many homes where straws are used as quilts. This is why the most people die in the winter, and they are so poor.So, we are having a good time now, and we should be happy and happy."

Lin Lishan nodded, "I should feel happy. I look around, some places are porridge, and they can only eat dinner on New Year's Eve."

"Mom, go get a meal. My bowl will be great if it is eaten well."

Lin Lishan shook her head, "I can't eat anymore, as I usually do. I will clean up when you are done. Then do your grandfather have enough to eat? They didn't work on the ground."

Zhou Jiao glanced at her mother irritably, "You forget that grandma and grandma have monthly wages and subsidies, so they have to eat. They just raise a bunch of people in the long house and eat enough. There was no food before. Tickets can be bought with money. When there is a food ticket, wild vegetables are added, and the food is comparable to the people in the county.

However, they are not well-behaved. They eat like robbery, rush to eat, and speak loudly and drool all over the sky. Talking about them is really disgusting.When I return to Zhou's house, there is nothing to eat.When I left, I opened the small stove, and all of them ate the tall and strong ones. Then Huang Zhaodi had two of them as fat as you, and I didn't believe that he didn't eat them."

"Hehe, I'm really so fat, I wasn't fat before, it was pretty. It's really old age. Eat it, I will pack it and send it to you. You lean first, don't lie down." Raise it in the basket.

After a while, Lin Lishan came in, Zhou Jiao stared at her mother and saw that no one followed her behind her, winking her eyes and screaming out.Lin Lishan gave her a white look, watched her make a face, and smiled while covering her mouth.

"There is only your sister-in-law in the kitchen. They are all eating. I didn't enter the main room. The kitchen smells of sweet potato. It should be sweet potato rice at night. Give us all the white rice. They eat sweet potato rice. Their children's tutoring is very good. Trouble."

Zhou Jiao nodded, "Their children are well-educated, and they never move anything when they come to my house. Give them candy, and they know that they have to take them home to their younger siblings. When the younger ones see candy, they also know to bring them back. Their brother eats."

Lin Lishan went to the kitchen to get hot water and brought it to the room. The two of them washed up, turned on the radio, and lay on the kang to chat.
